An Untold Story.

"Now, gentlemen" said the man who
was wearing bears claw on his watch
chain, "Tve got a mighty good bear
story to tell unless some one raises an
objection. / want it unanimous or l
don't talk"
"why should any one objectY' was
asked.
"Wall, you see, the story starts out
this way: / was in a pork barrel in a
lumber camp in Montana when grizzly
bear appeared. AS l was headed up in
the barrel, and as the barrel was new
and stout he couldn't get at me. In re-
venge he rolled me down the side Of
the mountain. It's a mighty interesting
story, but as / said before / don't want
to tell it if anybody raises an objection" :"
II don't see what any one can object
to-"
"Well, they often do. l get along
about the middle of the story and then
some one objects to my getting into the
barrel and heading it up after me
makes it embarrassing for me to go back
and explain, you know. Is any one here
going to object?'
II think l object" replied the man
who had refused to take a hand in a
game of pedro with us.
"Ah, just so! Very well, sir; very
we'll. You have saved me much enbar-
rassment, and l thank you. The story
will not be told"
And it was not.-New York Herald.

. No. yor. cir, and Her Calender.

New YORK Gni ana her cahenhar.
There is in New York a young
woman who had Shakes cal
endar given to her Christmas.
1t was a pretty calendar, and so
she used it, pulling off a little leaf
each day.
Just below the printed day of each
month there is a little quotation from
Shakespeare, and the young woman
began Jan. to look at the quotation
as she tore off the leaf.
At first it was only a careless
glance that she gave from day to
day as she pulled off the little slip,
but before a month had passed the
lines began to arrest her attention,
so that she would linger as she pulled
off the leaf. and would perhaps read
it twice. One day she lost her watch.
1t was little affair that hooked upon
the breast. 1t had been a present
from the young girls father upon
her graduation day. and she was
very fond of it. Christmas time she
had had the watch taken off its long,
old fashioned chain and put upon
new style pin. And SO the watch
was lost.
Drying her eyes after two hours
steady crying, the young woman sat
down to write a note, telling her
dearest friend of her loss. Glancing
up at the Shakespeare calendar she
saw that it was a day late, and so,
pulling off the leaf of the day before,
she read the text of the day more
from force of habit than from any
desire to know what Shakespeare or
anybody else had to say at this, the
time of her grief.
And what do you suppose that cal
endar readl Why just this;
What's gone, what's past help,
Should be past grief
And so the young woman dried her
tears and resolved in future to look at
Shakespeare before indulging in great
grief, or even great JOY, or great
anything else, because Shakespeare's
advice was sure to be good. New

SPECIAL FORMS OF INSURANCE.
How Employers and Employees Are Pro
tected Against Loss.

tected Against Loss.
Many special forms of the insur
ance business have been DEVELOPED
in the lasj few years, and one of the
most rpc, ltly established has for its
purpose the protection of employers
against pecuniary less through any
accidents which may result in the
death or injury of their worknen.
There is already one company III
New York which devotes its atten
ton exclusively to this business.
while several of the accid mt com
panies make it special feature. The
policies which are issued for this
form of insurance are of blanket
nature, covering all of the workmen
that may be on the pay roll of the
manufacturer or contractor from
day to day.
The pay roll itself is made the basis
for the insurance charges. The rate
for the employers liability policy is
about one-half of 1 per cent, which
would mean five dollars day to the
employer whose pay roll is 81, 600
day. Under this policy the company
limits its liability to $1,000 on each
person and $4,000 to single acci.
dent in which several persons are in
jured.
Another policy, issued also on the
basis of the pay roll, is for the benefit
of the workmen themselves, and pro
vides for the payment either of one
half or full wages, in case of accident
to the workmen, for either six
months or year, and the payment
of six months or years full wages
in case of death. 1t has been the
usual custom for the employer to-
take out a combined policy, protect
ing the work1nen as well as himself.
In return each workman is charged
by the employer few cents a week
for the protection which is thus af
forded to him. Still another phase
of this business is the public liability.
indemnifying against injury to the
public by the insured or his men.
Under this system the employer
who is insured is not disturbed by
vexatious lawsuits. When one of his
men is killed or injured, instead OF
going to the expense of hiring law
yers and defending himself in the
courts, he simply fills out a blank
with an account of the accident,
states the age and wages Of the in
jured man, and mails it to the com
pany's Office. One of the company's
employees makes an investigation,
and if he finds the accident is the re-
suit of carelessness the employer is
so advised.
Then if the injured man brings
suit the papers served on the employ
er are turned over to the insurance
company's lawyers, who carry on
the proceedings and pay all fees. But
if the employer is found to be plainly
liable the company sends repre-
sentative to the injured man and
makes a fair cash offer on the under
standing that he will sign a release
of all legal claim New York Sun.

There are three points to be con-
sidered in feeding delicate baby.
The kind of food.
The quantity given at once.
The time between the meals
The kind of food must of course
depend upon the child. What agrees
with one cannot be taken by another,
while it exactly suits third. A
good receipt is one tablespoonful of
milk, two tablespoonfuls of cream,
two tablespoonfuls of lime water and
three of boiled water, sweetened with
a tiny pinch of milk sugar, Make it
milk warm and the food is ready for
use. This is sufficient for one feed
ing for an ordinary sized baby until
it is two months old. After that
gradually increase the quantity with
out changing the proportion of the
ingredients. Elizabeth r. Scovil in

THE BRAINS TEMPERATURE
Various Experiments Which Have Beer
Made on Men and Dogs.

Various Experiments Which Have Been
Made on Men and Dogs.
Youths Companion.I
Some interesting experiments have lately
been made by Prof. Angelo Mosso, of
Turin, on the temperature of the brain. 1t
is common observation that during pro-
longed mental exercise or excitement the
head becomes hotter, but Prof. Mosso has
applied very delicate heat-measuring appar-
atus to ascertain the effect upon the brain
temperature not merely of conscious mental
effort, but of various stimulants and irri-
tants.
The sensitiveness of the brain NAV be
judged from the fact that during profound
sleep noise produced within the hearing
of the sleeper, although not loud enough
to cause an awakening, makes perceptible
rise in temperature.
The administration of cocaine was OBJ
served to cause a rise of more than seven
degrees in the brain temperature. One of
the effects of opium appears to be to pro-
duce fall in the temperature of the brain
before any of the other organs of the body
are similarly affected, and indeed while
they are yet rising in temperature.
Great mental activity produces condi-
ton of the blood which appears to be pois-
onous, especially to the muscular system.
Prof Mosso has used both human beings
and dogs as the subjects of his experiments.

THE DAUGHTER OF ELLIS ISLAND.
A Little Syrian waif Lands Alone on IL
Eorders of the Now World.

A Little Syrian waif Lands Alone on the
Borders of the Now World.
NEW YORK, July H.-A pathetic story
which has touched the heart OF Colonel
Weber and his assistants at Ellis Islandi is
that of little 3-year-old girl who arrived in
this country a week ago alone.
The little wanderers name is Adene Hama.
She has never seen her father. Three years
ago he came to the United States. He
wanted to make a home for his wife and
child. The husband when last heard from
was at New Orleans. For almost three years
his wife waited for letters from him, but
they never came.
Sick and despondent, the poor woman sold
her little furniture and decided to follow
her husband to the United States and try to
find him.
Mrs. Hama embarked on the steamship
Cambria with her little girl. Directly on the
vessel leaving port Mrs Hama fell ill, grow
ing weaker and weaker until the third day
after sailing, when she died. She was buried
at sea.
Little Adene did not know and could not
understand what had become of her mother.
The passengers told her that she had gone
to Heaven.
Ever since her arrival at Ellis Island little
Adene has been making friends with every
body from Colonel Weber down, and already
she has come to be known as "the daughter
OF Ellis Island" Learning that no one was
likely to claim Adene, Miss Lenddahl,
Swedish missionary, applied to Colonel
Weber yesterday and was given permission
to take charge of her.
