Care of in. Ro.,y.

The body demands in an unruistak able manner that it be exercised. All dietetic needs of our bodies announce themselves in versatile language of their own, and who has learned to in terpret that language nor willfuily dis regard its first appeal may avoid all digestive disorders by quietly following the law Of his instincts. which teach all well regulated beings the necessity for clearing the system of one burden be- fore it assumes another
 All normal things are good, all evil is abnormal. Is an axiom which has been almos; reversed in the principle of our orthodox health theories. for many of our physical educators still hold to the error of their spiritual colleagues. who consider depravity and wretched- ness as the normal condition of man Life once corrupted can be cleansed again in a spiritual manner Why can not our organic and material functions be rejuvenated in the same wayf-Jen' ness Miller Magazine.

Family history Is history dramatized- 1t has been said that the obscurest in iividual life if truthfully written, would surpass any romance. and this Is true of the obscureSt famiiy's life. All fam lilies are equally ancient. On earth in dividual immortality is represented in the undying life of every family; 1t re quires the life of a family to round out the events individuals find so out of joint The cloud that overwhelmed the wayfarer of one generation for his successor floats into light The experi- ences of foregone ags are stored in every human being If the history of B particular family is searched 1t is bo- cause 1t is searchable, not because it Is great.

Put in the top of a light, shallow pasteboani box two holes, each about an inch In diameter. and place over each an arSand lampchimney In ooe hole stand candle cut to such a length that it will project about half an inch above the box Light the candle and then hold burning touch paper over the other lamp chimney The smoke, instead of rising. will go down one chimney, and after 1t has filed the box will rise through the other. The reason Is that the burning candle makes a draught up its chimney, and, if the box is air tight. to supply the place of what Is going out air must come down the other chimney
 Touch paper, by the way, Is made by dipping ungla1ed paper in solu- ton of saltpeter When dry it burns with a smoke. but not with flame Another experiment. Is to hold the hand tightly over the chimney where the draught r downward. The candle in the other chimney will begin io burn feebly and smoke, and will go out if there are no cracks tn the box for air to get in. The reason air does not get to it down it's own chimney Is that the up ward dranght there Is too strong -Bo~ ton Globe.

They Don, Bury Their Dog. There.


 A letter recently received from a' American missionary in Central Africa reveals curious bit of superstition on the part of the natives in regard to the burying of dogs. The letter says: ''The king of Bihe made a great disturbance because Mfr. Arnot, Scotch mission ary, buried in the ground B dog which he had been obliged to kill The chief sent word that this was a crime, and that the missionary must take up the body and throw it into the river. After this he must kill chicken and sprinkle its blood upon the ground where the dog had been buried
 Now, it was not deemed best to anger the king by refusing to do as he commanded. so MT. Arnot took up the body of the dog and threw it into the river and paid fine All they can pay with is cotton cloth, and of this Mir. Arnot had to pay forty yards. But he did not sprinkle the blood of the chicken on the ground, because that would look like paying homage to the spirits However. there was an old native who felt that this must be done in order to avert evil consequences, so he killed the chicken and went through the ceremony.

The Firss RinE.

There are two precious stones that tend to make the hand look extremely white. and these are the emerald and the sapphire. Women more than ever are wearing rings on their fingers. How many know where the first ring came from. Straight from fairyland. A merry sprite who loved a little fairy danced with her on the green until he was drunk with moonshine ard he lost his ring It was found by peasant girl and she gave it to her lover. and these two were happy ever after That's the story of the first nng. One hopes it will be the story of every ring that is given for dear loves sake.-New York Sun.

The passersby stood still in amazemcnt. Then the truth of the situation dawned upon them and there was general laugh. The woman re- alized her mistake about the same time, and. blushing like a lass of eighteen, she hurried up the street away from the throng of spectators. Hartford Times.

A City of Pitfalls

Ever since the Crimean war many of the populous thoroughfares of Odessa have been undermined In 1884 law was framed by the municipal council (dooma). making it obligatory upon every landlord to till up the mine which opens from his premises, But obedi- enoe 10 that law was never insisted upon. and the house owners ignored it's existence. Of late several accidents have occurred where the ground on the streets and sidewalks caved in and fell into the mines. The municipal council contemplated the enforcement of the law, but the house owners pre- sented a petition against this measure on the plea that the mines are used as cellars for the storage of goods, and if they should be filled up their proper, ties would 3eteriorate in value.
 Hereupon the city council adopted a resolution obliging the landlords to line the mines which open into their houses with cemented walls so that the ground above them should not cave in In cases where this cannot be done the mines must be filled up, The landlord who fails to do one thing or the other will be responsible for all accidents that may be caused by his negligence, and be liable to an administrative fine" for disobedience The board of city archi- tects. moreover. drew up plan of all the mines in the city. marking those which can be made secure and those which must be closed -EIchange.

This Is travelling mans story;
 used to have an old German GUS toner up in Minnesota He kept iit- tie country store where he traded calico and sugar snd tinwane for eggs and poultry. Ills little cross roads place was twenty miles from the railroad. among settlement of Germans l used to drive out there about three times year and sell him a nice little bin of goods.
 When got pretty well acquainted with the old man found that he had the most rudiinentary idea of accounts, and his method of getting a selling price on hardware (my linel was sim plicity itself He just took the cost, whatever 1t might be, and multiplied it by two. Of courSe l was at good deal of expense in selling to him, and l fixed my price accordingly.
 Wen. one time l went out and the old man would have nothing to do with me. My name was Dennis didn't want to talk at all loafed around and finally found out what was the matter. Another hardware man had been out there and had made him prices about twenty-five per cent less than mine. Then just sat down and showed the old man how a paddock that he bad paid the four dollars for had been sold him by the other fellow for three dollars My dozen padlocks cost him four dollars He multiplied that by two. sold them for eight dollars and made four The other mans cost him three dollars; he then sold them for six dollars and made three dollars. Clear gain by trading with me--one dollar dozen on those padlocks, and SD on through the bill The old man saw it plain as day and stuck right to me after that. Chicago News

 One hot summer day after climbing the old ''Government" road which winds tn and out of the guIches, but always up from Copper Basin. my com psnion. Colonel Bigelow, and myself reached the cool spring which bubbles from the rocks just before the divide Is reached from which the road com nlences to descend to Prescott. which Is eight or nine miles away. The mountains here are covered with tall pine trees which spring from the ground covered with immense granite bowiders
 Resting ourselves at the spring the colonel pointed to trail leading up the side of the opposite mountain and said, "A good many years since--I think it vas in 1865. and when l felt much younger than now--I came very near being taken in by the Indians up on the trail where 1t passes over the divide. I'll tell you how it waS
 Il had been down la Prescott for a month or two. having a good time with the boys until had become broke and tired of so much hilarity. and I made up my mind l would strike out for camp, which at that time sas at the mouth of the Grand Wash. which leads down into the Hassayampa, four or i've miles below Copper Basin.
 T started out from Prescott, and was coming up the trail on the other side of that ridge over there. all the time keeping my eyes open for Indians. for in those days person was always on the lookout for Indians and always had his gun ready for instant use.
 As came up the hill l noticed a movement of the boughs in the top of a tall pinion pine tree which stood on top of the ridge. Not being able from my position to discover what made the commotion in the pine tree top, care fully made my way up the hill untl l had q good view of the tree. and what do you think sawf Well. an Indian had shinned up the pine tree, and, with a long light rib of saghuara. wEs knocking off the pine cones which hold fbe sweet pinion pine nuts
 Il felt very comfortable when saw the Indian np the tree. for imagined the result if he had caught me up the tree. I made up my mind that he was my Indian. for the Apaches had made things particularly hot for me on more than one occasion Without any re- gard as to whether he woulc fall on a soft spo, or not. took good aim and then-didn't shoot"
 No, what was the matter r asked.
 'rll tell you why" continued the colonel. Hearing slight noise, l looked down the trail on the other side of the bill, and there. not more than 100 yards away. were coming seven or eight Indians in single file, and all were armed They had not seen me l sud denly concluded hadn't lost any In dian that day. and lay fiat down in the brush while they passed along the trail in full view of my hiding place and disappeared over the hill
 As didn't care to call a band of the red flends upon me by shooting, l just crawled away from them without letting the Indian up the tree know how near he had been to being my meat. nor how near my scalp had been 10 hanging to the belt of one of his tribe. '-Arizona Republican.

always bright and attractive writer, is

Gle itself. The executive mansion, the

terest to the people of the United States,

scribed by Mr.. George Gratham Balm,

taken specially for The Cosmopolitan by
permission of the President.
Perhaps the feature which will appeal
most strongly to literary people, is Bran
