THE peasantry of Connemara in Ire

few months not by the Balfour govern
ment but through the generosity Of the
American people Such is the testimony
of Miss Sophy Surge, who, as a resident
of the district has been engaged in the
work Of furnishing relief to the sufferers
II appears that during the next few
months also American generosity must be
depended upon, or until the aid Of the

THERE is a popular notion to the effect
that a person il more likely to take con
tagious disease when the stomach is empty
Although the fact seems to be we'll estab-
lished by experience, nevertheless it has
never been established as scientific fact
until recently. Experiments which have
lately been made upon pigeons by two
Italian physicians, demonstrate beyond
any reasonable ubt that hunger is favor
able to the activity Of the infectious ele-
ment, whatever it may be- Pigeons that
had been starved, we're found to be very
susceptible 30 the contagion of anthrax, al
though when well fed, they were not at ali
subject to this disease. 1t thus appears
that hunger in some way lessons the abll-
ity Of the body to defend itself from the
attack Of disease germs. Possibly this
may be in part due to the fact that when a
person is hungry there is no gastric juice
in the stomach, so that the protecting in.
fuence Of this digestive fluid is lost Then,
too, the lowering of thcyital powers as tbs
resul. Of hunger, lessons the resistance Of
the cells Of the body in general

A Mothers Prayer.

There was young soldier in the
French army who, when he went to war
had most earnestly asked for the prayers
of his mother. It was the last request
he made her when he left home, and ev-
ery letter she received from him was
sure to express this same pious desire:
ssDo not forget TO prey for me-" She did
not forget to do what he asked, but pray
ed for him morning and evening. One
Wednesday afternoon this mother had 1t
most strangely Impressed upon her
naind-she could not tell Why or how,
but so it was-that her son was IN great
danger, and that she ought to. pray Tor
him at once. And accordingly she dld
SO, and went on praying for him, still
having the same feeling for more than an
hour. In process of time she had LET
ter from her son, stating that on that
very day, at the same hour, he had been
in the extremity of danger; he had been
picked out to serve in the forlorn hope
Of the French army in the battle of Buff
falor. Soldiers who stood On the right
and left of him were shot down--many
of them; his own cap had been shot away
and his tro users were nearly torn to
pieces with splinters of flint hit up out
of the ground by spent bullets; but he
himself was not in the least injured-had
not even received scratch.

A. Realistic Spectacle Even to the Killing
of the Wounded
A sham fight among the Zulus is an
impressive spectacle, says the Detroit
Free Press The dusky warriors are
fine, muscular fellows, athletic and
highly trained. The rank and file, I'M
tralnneled by ornaments and dress,
move about with grace and freedom.
The officers, chiefs and head me1i wear
coronets of ostrich feathers, which
rustic freely with every movement OF
the body; circling their brows are rolls
of tiger skin from which descend
fringes of course hair; from the neck
and shoulders to the knees their bodies
are covered with the tails Of monkeys
and tigers and stripes Of various hides
strung together in g,irdles; their waists
are girt about with tufts OF lions name
and COW hair. Forming into line, their
variegated shields are SO close and reg
ular that they appear ipterlocked,
while above them bristle rows Of gleam-
assegai heads. The foe is imaginary,
as even among their own tribes they
are reused to such q pitch Of excite

though only in mimic warfare, they
would be so far carried away by their
feelings that at close quarters blood
shed would inevitably result. At the
word of command they advance in pre-
else order, first slowly, then at a quick
march, then double, and with shout
of "Chiela!'' Imaginary enemies) the
battle becomes fast and furious. Bran
dishing their assegais, stabbing and
lunging with strength and dexterity,
each stroke accompanied by fierce
grunt of satisfaction, stamping, gesticu-
lating and crashing their teeth, they
work themselves into a mad frenzy, in
which their features are distorted and
their eyes glare with a fierce lust OF
blood.
Suddenly the command is given to re-
ire, and, as victors shouting triumph,
they march from the field. Then APP
pears upon the scene a horde Of wild
looking creatures, running and leaping
from place to place, screaming dernoni-
acally, and frantically beating the
earth with thick heavy, clubs. These
are the women and they are engaged in
the horrible atrocity Of killing the.
wounded. After sham fight the night

the adjustment of suitable periods q;

the brief and irregular intervals be-,
tween that the saving of the time prac-
tically consists 1t has been estimated
that the mere difference between rising
at six and nine o'clock in the morning
for the space Of forty years is nearly
equivalent to the addition Of fifteen
years to mans lifetime. There may.
be some idiosyncracy in the matter q
getting up early, but in very many
cases both rising late and sitting up.
late are largely the result Of indolence.3
And for many who have sufficient occn-
patton in the daytime there is greao
contrast between the intellectual value
of the morning, when the brain y
fresh, and of the evening, when u 1s
fatigued and rather inclined for recrear
ton than fresh effort.
But, if possible, of even more impor-
lance than the value of time is the
value of thought, and it is only the
power Of commanding and controlling
the activity of the brain that can en-
able us to employ the brief time at our
disposal in furthering the objects
which we have in view. Barrow, the
early adviser of Isaac Newton, poetic
ally observed: ''The spirits employed
in thought are apt to fiutter and hy
away, SO that it is hard to fix them; our
mind being d restless thing, never abid-
ing in total cessation from thought
or from design and, like a ship at, sea,
If not steered to some good purpose by
reason, making no useful way, but yet

WHITTIER. Curiosity is the intellectual
appetite, but it requires both direction
and control for the assimilation OF
sound and useful knowledge. The eff
feet Of novelty in producing an impress
sion OH the mind is most valuable,
but when not followed up by thorough
investigation it is useless, and too much
novelty is Of all things the most weary
ing.
But in the midst of his work the stu
dent should be careful of health. The
best work is done when in the best
health, and this depends on o suitable
| balance between mental and physical
exertion, with plenty OF fresh air and
| regularity with regard to food and rest.
It is far better, when necessary, to take
a brief holiday to avoid being Ill than to
endure 81 longer absence from work en-
forced by illness.
