Sickness and Starvation

There is popular notion to the ell, Ct
that a I erson is more likely to take a con
tagIous disease when the stomach is EN-
PITY. Although this fact seems to be well
established by experience, nevertheless ii
has never been established as scientific
fact until recently. Experiments which
have lately been made upon pigeons, by
two Italian physicians, demonstrate be
yond any reasonable doubt that hunger is
favorable to the activity of the infectious
element whatever it may be. Pigeons
that have been starved were found to be
very susceptible to the contagion of an
thrax, although, when well fed, they were
not at all subject to this disease. 1t thus
appears that hunger in some way lessons
the ability of the body to defend itself
from the attack of disease germs. Posi-
bly, this may be in part due to the fact
that when person is hungry there Is no
gastric juice in the stomach. SO that the
il fluence of this digestive
fluid is lost. Then, too, the lowering of
the vital powers, as the result of hunger,
lessons the resistance of the cells Of the
body in general.

How to Do IL.

To Remove Paint--To eight parts OF
slaked lime and one part Of soda, add wa.
ter till mixture is of the consistency of
paint. Put it on with an old brush and
the next day you can scrape off the paint
quite easily.
To Bleach Muslin Boil thick sour milk
and strain 1t into Il stone jar; into this put
the articles you wish to bleach let them
remain few days, stirring and airing them
occasionally. Rinse out carefully in cold
rainwater and spread in the hot sun
Keep 1t well sprindcd.
To Clean Polished Grates-lIaye an old
chamois skin on hand to wipe the CRATE
dry every morning after 1t is washed up. If
il has become rusted it requires patience
to brighten it. The best polish is made Of
equal parts of sweet oil and turpentinc and
as much emery powder as you onn stir in.
Rub this on with piece of flannel and
brighten with another.
To Make Waterproof Glue-Dssolye a
pound of common glue in three pin,s of
SKINNED milk and add little powdered
qucklime.

Safe Sweeping.

The common and necessary operation of
sweeping the floor of schoolroom, fac
tory OF other large apartment is generally
carried out with great Inconvenience t.
the sweepers, and with the result that a
large proportion of the dust removed from
the ground is transferred 10 every object in
the room. where it can find resting place.
The air, too, is contaminated for II long
time afterward with floating PARTICLES,
which are very distressing TO those who
have to breath in it, All this can be avoid,
ed by dispensing with the common practice
of spriukling the floor with water previous
to the use of the broom, aud by applying
the moisture in different way. BY laying
II line of wet sawdust right across one eud
Of the apartment, and by sweeping 1t foot

A correspondent in the Mirror and
Farmer, tells how he frightened the crows
away from his patch of corn after every
other device had failed. He cut some
bushes, set them In the corn patch and
clothed them with brau rags. Then, ar
rayed in similar style, he, early the next
morning took his position near the center
of the field. Soon five crows slighted.
He suddenly unrolled himself and appear
I'd in full dimensions, hammering a pail
and shouting and screaming like mad.
The crows joined in chorus and left as
swiftly as their wings would carry them.
Watch was kept for several days, but not
another crow appeared.

AT THs WINDOWS OF THE MORNING.

What joy to stand at break Of day, Watching the gathering glory Oi sunlight brighlening all the way With bird note song and story; When the queen of Morn comes forth with
 pride.
 Both heaven and earth adorning; When the Hand of God throws open wilc All the windows of the Morning. When low in the eastern sky afar
 Han .s molten mirror olden; Where breezes leap from star to star, Through sun rays growing golden; When scenes of darkness fade and dee Away from the hours of dawning; When the face of the tod of Day we sec Through the Windows of the Morning. When nature smiles and weeps in turn. But not with tears of sadness; When morning mists from a flowing urn Pour life and joy and gladness; When Sol in golden chariot rides
 Forth proudly without scorning; When in the heavens his glory bides Near the Windows of the Morning. Inspiring thought-that when our time of life ol earth Is ended There's promise of world sublime
 Where earth and heaven are blended; Where day and night will be once more Joined in new life dawning, When. mirrJred on shining shore, Ope the Windows of the Morning. -Clars N. Bryan in Good Housekeeping.

De: Days In the Year ia.soi.


 As most readers we'll know. dog days include the period from July s to Aug, II. and take their name from Sirius, known as the Dog Star" Sirius is the most brilliant of the fixed stars. and is at the head of the constellation Canis Major. or Great Dog This star. during the period which we refer to as dog days, rises with the sun or within the same hour Owing to this, the astronomers say that lhs dog star rises "heliacally" from July 8 10 Aug. II.
 The Egyptians. who worshiped the dog as d sacred beast. as did several others of the ancients. attributed the ex- trrme heat of summer to the influence of the Canis Major constellation: the pres ent Egyptians, however. knew nothing of this myth. with the exception of the sect known as the Copts But with other nations ir is different With many the superstition has been perpetIated and handed down to generation after genera ton until the present time. when the most intelligent people of the realm speak of dog days as a season of baleful glares and breezes.
 But III the far future this will all be changed By regular shifting of the point where the sun crosses the equator. which is caused by what is termed the procession of the equinoxes," the time will come. m about li,00O years. when this evil designing Great Dog constella- ton will only rise with the sun in mid winter Wonderful. indeed. is great Dlme Nature. which causes the huge planets to swing to and fro like gigantic peuduluIns strong on invisible wires, bringing the seasons in regular rotation with unerring certainty.-St. Louis Re
