What Smoking Doe. for Boys.

A certain doctor, struck with the large
numbers OF boys Under fifteen years OF
age whom he observed smoking. was led
to inquire into the effect the habit had
upon the general health. He took for his
purpose thirty-eight boys. aged from nine
TO fifteen, and carefully examined them.
In twenty-seven OF them he discovered In
furious traces OF the habit. In twenty
two there were various disorders OF the
circulation and digestion. palpitation OF
the heart. and more or less marked taste
for strong drink. In twelve there was fre-
quent bleeding OF the nose; ten had dis
turbed sleep, and twelve had slight ulcera-
tion OF the mucous membrane Of the
mouth. which disappeared on ceaslng
from the use OF tobacco for some days.
The doctor treated them all for weakness.
but with little effect until the smoking
was discontinued, when health and
strength were soon restored.

WEARING OUT SHOE LEATHER.

The Advantage of Wasting Leather I'm

81 have but one maxim for you," said
successful and wealthy merchant to q
young man who went out OF his employ to
enter upon the study OF profession,
"and that is never to try to save your
shoe leather. but always be economical Of
the cloth that forms the seat OF your
trousers"
The young man pondered this bit OF adj
vice long time, but he thinks that he
never fully understood IL until he had
been at work In his profession for several
years.
He found, indeed, that worn out shoe
leather" was a good investment. 1t
meant, for one thing. keeping up with the
time by gaining information at first hand.
II he needed any facts bearing upon his
profession, he said to himself: Il can buy
them with a little shoe leather" and he
went out and saw the men who had the
facts to give him.
II he had waited for them to come to
him probably they would never have
come. He could not buy the information
with pantaloon material.-Youth's Com

The practice OF "trotting" child on
the knee Of the nurse or tho mother,
thought has the sanction or long prac-
tice. has not the sanction OF common
sense. and should never be INDUCED, es-
pecially with infants. Treating the adult
body In the ratio OF corresponding
strength the exercise would be about
equivalent to being ourselves churned up
and down on the walking beam OF good
sized steam engine. It has been very
properly said that gentle movement is as
pleasant to the child, as riding In an easy
running carriage on a smooth road to an
adult; knee jolting is as unpleasant and
harmful as journey over the worst cor
