ward Brennan, whose home is in New
York, went out on the river in n small
boat at noon Sunday, While off Grass

Defending the Farmers.

At the agricultural congress Colonel
j. B. Brigham of Ohio made an address
in which he criticised the speech of Sec
rotary of Agriculture Morton the even
ing previous. Secretary Morton said
that among the most dangerous and in
siduous foes that the American farmer
had to contend with were the grangers'
alliances. The professional farmer was
always a menace to the practical farmer.
Mr.. Brigham said that the only excuse
for such words coming from the secre-
tary of agriculture was the excuse of
profound ignorance beside which the
darkness of night was nothing. He con-
tinued:
Every advance, every new invention
of farm machinery, every experiment
which has been helpful to the farmer,
have been promoted by the Grange. and
If it were not for the Grange and the Al
lance our country would have no secre-
tary of agriculture"
Continuing his remarks, the speaker
said that agriculture was the grandest
profession in the world. If agriculture
died, every industry died. He said that
he did not want the impression to go out
that farmers Of this country were antag.
onizing any other interest. Those who
had conceived the idea that the farmers
hands were raised against those of every
class or profession made great mistake.
He said it was great fault of the farm.
ers of this country that they had not
more representatives. in the national con.
gress. If it had a good mixture Of farm.
ers, congress would do some business
and do it in quick order.

VA WNING AS A REMEDY.

According to current ideas. yawn-
ing in good society is an improper
sign of WEAKNESS; according to the
teachings of physiology, it is a long
drawn, forcible inspiration, followed
by shorter respiration; according
to DR.. Naegeli, it is one of Natures
many remedies, the proper applica-
ton of which depends upon good
judgment.
In yawning, not only the muscles
which move the lower jaw are used,
but also the breathing muscles of the
chest, and he who yawns to his
hearts content also raises and ex-
tends the arms. In the deepest in
SEPARATION the chest remains extended
for short time, the eyes are almost
or entirely closed, the ears somewhat
raised, the nostrils dilated,
Inside the mouth, the tongue be-
comes round and arched, the palate
stIffly stretched and the uvula is
raised, almost entirely closing the
space between the nose and throat.
At the beginning of the inspiration,
cracking noise is heard in the ears,
a proof that the duct leading to the
ears also succumbS to tins stretching.
If the yaWning has reached the
deepest point it will require from one
TO one and a halfseconds for it to be-
come noticeable to the hearing. In
order to observe this, let one place
himself at a sufficient distance from
a clock, so that it's ticking will not be
easily heard, and yawn deeply, Dur
ing this deep breathing the sound OF
the clock is not perceptible to the
most careful listener.
All this simply goes to show that
yawning sets a number of muscles to
work, and particularly those which
are not directly subject to the will.
Although one yawning does not pre-
sent a very agreeable appearance, it
is very agreeable to himself, for the
stretching of the muscles causes a
feeling of comfort; il acts like mas
sage, and is the most natural gym
nastics of the lungs Imaginable. Dr..
Naegeli therefore advises people not
to concern themselves with so-called
decency, but every morning and
evening, and as often as possible, to
exercise the lungs and all the mus
Giles OF respiration by yawning and
stretching, as many chronic lung
troubles may thus be prevented.
DIR. Naegeli orders the patient
troubled with too much wax in the
ear, accompanied with pain, to yawn
often and deeply. The pain will
soon disappear. He, also, in the
case ofnasal catarrh, Inflammation
of the palate, sore throat and ear
ache, orders the patient as often as
possible during each day to yawn
