The Care of Sick Children,

The young mother who is far from

comfort that a child Very really re
quires medicine, writes Elisabeth
Robinson Scovil, in her department c
In the March Ladies Home Journal.
What it needs is what she can
give without danger-proper food,
pure air, cleanliness and rest. Most
of the disorders of children, particu-
larly Of infants, arise from some de-
rangement of the digestive tract. The
food is not of proper quantity or quail
ity. 1t is not assimilated; that is,

should. The first thing to be done
is to change the food. Add q table.

fourth cream instead of all milk with
water. Vary the strength of the
food by adding more or less water.
If still unsuccessful, try some of the
artificial foods until one is found that

With older children and error of

feverishness and restlessness.

A Sort of Digital Depression.

"A oOrt VI DiSitdl DcprCsSiOh'
Did you ever notice, when a man
smttes his thumb with q hammer,
while putting down a carpet under
wifely supervision and criticism, how
quickly he thrusts the bruised and
throbbiDg member into his ready
mouth? writes Robert J. Burdette in
the March Ladies' Home Journal.
People think it is because the appli-
cation is soothing. But no; it is an
involuntary movement, same as wink
ing. The man cannot help it. Ma
ture knows what the man would be
apt to say under the circumstances,
and 80 she has provided him with a
stopper, and has ordained that when
eve he hits his thumb hard enough
to hurt-and it doesn't take very
much to nearly kill q man when he
is doing something he doesn't want
toby q sort Of interlocking system
the thumb flies into his mouth and
stops him up, SO that he can't say
anything. Some men whom you and
I know should be provided with an
extra thumb which they might carry
about in their hand all the time it
wasn't in active use. 1t would be a
great thing, wouldn't 1t?

Selecting Carpets and Rugs.

In buying carpets remember that
the best are always the cheapest,
writes Maria Parloa in her domestic
department in the March Ladies'
Home Journal. The more limited
ones means are, the more essential
it Is that only a good article shall be
purchased. The best quality of body
Russeis will outwear two or more of
the cheaper tapestry carp ats. A fine
ly-woveD, smooth ingram carpet may
cost half a dollar more per yard than
one of common texture, hut 1t will be
cheaper in the end. Rugs for the
center of the room can be made from
q body Russels, with q border to
math. They should be tackled down.
japanese cotton rugs, pretty and dur
able, cost from three to six dollars.
They are good for bedrooms, bath
rooms and sitting rooms. Buy hand
some rugs whenever you can afford
to. There are o good investment; for,
unlike carpets; they do not wear out,
and you can hand them down in the
family the same as silver or dia-
monds. A beautiful Oriental rug is
q joy forever. In selecting one be
particular to see that the colors are
rich, and have some brightness. In
general, when choosing carpets, have
the groundwork rather light, and the
colors somewhat neutral. Such q
carpet will! always look clean, and
you will not feel the need of shuttinp
out the sunlight through fear of fad.

From the San Francisco Erdmfner
Mike was dying. He knew 1T, and he
was brave about it at first. When that III.
put shot blew out IL the tree aud stretched
him bleeding and burned and blind, he took
it like man; but two days of suffering in
the hot, rough wood camp broke his heart
down, and he cried some and wanted a

ashamed to profess religion.
~ never looked to see Mike whine" said
one of his fellows, taking half humorous
view of the incident, as be told it in the
next wood camp. "He'd die happy if he
just had somebody there TO talk little Latin
over him.
Nobody remembers how it came about.
but in five minutes one of the wood-chop-
pers had started TO where Mike was dying.
He sent the Others away, heard the poor ak

administration of extreme JUNCTION, Mikes

chopper to those who had opened their
mouths In wonderment to hear him solemnlv

tongue.
Somehow they did not call him Father
Chris" or padre, for even at that time there
was a general understanding around that
familiarity did not go with Chris Evans
1t as twenty years and more ago that
Chris Evans came to Tulare county. He
came with his blankets on his back. He
came to work. He could do rough carpen-
tering, knew how to handle horses, and was
generally just such man as would be
needed about in II new community. He
made no pretense to being anything more
than a laborer, though the words he turned
with just a shade of the Canadian twang
were not such as wandering farm laborers
ordinarily used.
Evans was a good workman; he was
young, strong, willing and contentei. He
minded his own business, and whether he
prospered or whether fortune turned her

feet and inches distant from Nj. Baker,
and so sharp was the blow that piece of
rough bark was knocked off, This is the
way the Australians use the boomerang as a
weapon, Mr.. Baker said, to kill rabbits and
disable larger game. The boomerang never
returns when 1t is thrown in this way, but
falls where it strikes. 1t has been claimed
by some Australian travellers that the
boomerang will return when used thus, but
Mr.. Baker said that this Is incorrect.
One of the peculiar uses to which the
boomerang is put by the native Australians
Is the killing OF parrots and cOckatOos.
Several blacks hide themselves in the woods
around an open spot, while others raise an
cutlery, causing the birds to fly into the
open by thousands. Theu the blacks rush
out with their boomerangs which they
send hurting up into the air. A dozen of
these thrown into the air at once kill aud
main hundreds of the birds and furnish the
blacks with big feast. Mr.. Baker showed
how this was done. He threw the boomer
ang from him, and for about twenty feet
its course wac parallel to the ground. Then
1t suddenly rose to the air to the hight of
ninety feet, az measured with the aid of a
tree near by, maintaining itself in hori-
zontal plane and falling back gracefully to
the ground.
Speaking of the boomerang he said:
MANY Of my friends who have watched
me think 1t is an easy thing to make
boomerang and throw it, and some of them
have tried 1t for themselves. 1t is really
dangerous for any one who has no knowl-
edge of the boomerang to trifle with IL. He
might be able to throw it SO it would re-
turn, but he would not be able to calculate
where it was going, and if there were many
spectators standing around some one would
be liable to get hurt. When you see the
boomerang gliding so easily through the air
1t does not appear as if blow from it could
hurt any one, but there is more force in it
than you realize"
MIR. Bakers remarks were well illustrated
by throw which he made. He said the
boomerang on its return would pass within
two feet of the ground and right over the
spot where the party was standing.
Most of those present lay close to the
ground, but a boy who was watching Mr..
Baker started to run away. The boom
erang was going in the same direction, too,
and it caught up with the boy striking him
smartly on the elbow. de had black and
blue spot TO show his experience.

yacht, the Oneida, as "Mr. Cleveland,s

the quantities of which he was Boosting. AS
he gave expression to his doubts, Mr. Cleve-
