We Arc Constantly Changing.

Life consists of series of changes Of tis-
sue, and the human economy is simply, as
far rs its material part is concerned, a
machine and primarily depends on food
as the most important factor in keepin :
it in working order. When it is said that
we commence to die as soon as we are
born it Of course means that certain
parts of the body Immediately begin to
perish; their existence is ephemeral;
they come, go, are replenished and de-
cay. They are the dying parts of that
system Of life which may last little
while, but which must eventually yield
TO the memorable laws of nature.
The nails, the hair, ETC., are observ-
able as instances of this decay. The
same rule applies TO every other organ
and tissue of the body, though it is not
palpable TO the naked eye. The skin is
always peeling. The food that is taken
in the one hour nourishes the system and
elects that which was taken the hour
before. New York Advertiser.

Susceptibility to Drafts.

It is strange the difference there is in
people about sitting in draft of air.
Some persons can sit or lie in draft and
not suffer the slightest inconvenience,
while others would catch their death of
cold in few minutes. Why is this? 1t
cannot be wholly due to the relative
strength of the individual, nor solely to
the conditions of particular organs Of
the body. Judging from observations
it would seem that, other things being
equal, those who have the best capillary
circulation are the ones least likely to
suffer. But this, again. depends upon
certain other conditions. A person who
has very feeble pulse, showing low vi
tality, cannot have good circulation in
the capillaries. The surface is easily
chilled, hence the danger of taking
cold.
But you will see another individual
with strong pulse, good vitality, who
is apparently as susceptible to drafts as
the one who is feeble. The cutaneous
circulation is sluggish, owing to normal
conditions. 1t may be due to an error
in diet or something which interferes
with the surface circulation. One who
lives largely on oily foods may have a
skin so torpid that the capillaries in it
cannot do their work properly. Or if
there is an excess of bile in the blood
this fluid may be SO thick that the fine
network of capillaries cannot carry it.
The surface circulation will be sluggish
and the skin easily chilled. Home
maker.

Queer Actions Of South American Birds.

Queer Actions Of South American Birds.
The singular wattled, wing spurred
and long toed jacanas have queer kind
of meeting. They usually go singly or
in pairs, but occasionally, in response to
a call by one of them, all who are within
hearing leave off feeding and fly to one
spot, where they walk about with their
beautiful wings erect or half open or
waved up and down with slow and
measured motion.
With these two species both sexes join
in the display, but that of the spur
winged lapwing is altogether peculiar,
inasmuch as it takes place with three
individuals only. These birds live in
pairs, and at intervals during the day
or on moonlight nights one bird will
leave his mate and fly to another pair a
short distance away. These will receive
the visitor with signs of pleasure.
First going to meet him, they place
themselves behind him and all three
march rapidly, uttering special notes.
Then they stop; the leader stands erect
with elevated wings uttering loud notes,
while the other two, with pulled out
plumage, standing side by side, stoop
forward till the tip of their beaks touch
the ground, and with low, murmuring
sound remain for some moments in the
strange posture. Then the visitor goes
back to his own mound and mate, and
later on they receive visitor which they
treat in the same ceremonious manner.
They are said to be so fond of this form
Of visiting that they indulge in it all the
year ound.-Minneapolis Tribune.

Something New in the Girl Line.

There is girl in San Francisco who
can cure headaches-cure them without
a bit of medicine. She just lays her hand
on the aching head and that settles the
whole matter There's something pecu.
liar about the girls hands. They arc
white and shapely and very nice to look
at, but to touch-ugh! they're as cold as
ice. More than that, they are always
dripping wet, these strange hands. It's
an eerie thing to see u handsome, healthy
girl lift her hands and let an icy dew
fall from the tips of her fingers. She can
do that any time she wants to, and never
feels the least annoyed at the awe of the
beholders.
She is tall, handsome young woman
who has never been i'll in her life. She
is rosy checked and bright eyed. She
works in big, hot factory down
town, and she can cure any girl in the
place of headache OF any kind of pain
She doesn't go through strange evolu-
tions or weird incantations. She just
pushes back her sleeves and lays her
cold, wet hands on the aching head. The
patient feels a queer, creepy, shivery
sensation crawling down her back. The
cold hands move slowly across the ho'
forehead of the sufferers the throbbing
pain stops; the twitching of the eyelids
ceases. and the headache is gone.-San
Francisco Examiner.

Ishould like to call attention to the
fact that the history of the great tele.
scopes at Mount Hamilton and at
Washington will serve to lay away
finally q widely published opinion
which we used to hear repeated every
few weeks namely, that great tele-
scopes are Of little use. The work Of
these two great telescopes mot to
speak of many others has conclu-
sively shown their great superiority
over less powerful instruments in
every field of astronomy, in the OBJ
servations of planets, nebulp, stars,
comets, satellites, in spcctroscopy,
and also in these departments of
astronomical photography for which
they are adapted.
Smaller instruments have their ap-
propriate fields, and in some of these
they will always be more convenient
than larger ones. But the great tele-
scope, when properly used, is and al
ways will be pre-eminent. Professor

An Electric Light Pole Device.

An excellent means of facilitating the
labors of workmen who are mainly en-
ployed in ascending high lamp pillars
has been provided in a newly invented
electric pillar ladder. The object of
the invention is to do away with the
necessity of the carrying of long ladders
or movable pins by workmen. By a
turn of the key at the base of the pillar
rod or chain is raised. which causes
steps to shoot out ON either side of the
pillar These form safe and strong
ladder. and they can be withdrawn
within the pillar when no longer re-
quired by a reverse turn of the key.
The steps can be renewed or taken
out, but only by those in charge, and all
danger from tampering by mischievous
or malicious persons is obviated. Ii
necessary the inside gearing may be dis
pensed with, and the man in charge can
slide out the steps as he ascends and
close them in descending. The steps
are SO weighted that they will remain
either in the closed or open position.-
