1t is a fact not generally known that II a
person holds his breath wasps and bees may
be handled with impunity. The skin practi-
cally becomes a coat OF mail against which
the insects vainly drive their stings. The
moment particle of air escapes from the
lungs the stings will penetrate. In explsna-
tion of this curious fact well-known physi-
clan advances the theory that holding the
breath partially closes the pores of the skin,
and thus leaves no opening for attack. This
interesting statement explains and enhances
the value Of practice have follo"ed for
the prevention of colds. For many years my
occupation took me to crowded political and
labor meetings, generally held in rooms des-
titute Of any means of ventilation. The heat
was intense, the air fetid and poisonous.
have left such meetings bathed in persptra-
ton and plunged into the chill air OF win
ter's night, thereby running the risk OF
catching the seyerest cold. Yet, strange 10
say, l enjoyed singular immunity from such
aggravating ailments. At the first touch OF
cold air took deep inspiration, and then
held my breath for half minute, in the
meantime walking as fast as l could. During
that half minute the pores of the skin were
closed against the chilling atmosphere, and
by the time the lungs called for reinvigora-
ton the body had considerably cooled and
the risk of chill was over. l recommend
this practice to public speakers, vocalists and
entertainers, and those who are obliged to
frequent unduly heated rooms. In my own
case the practice never failed, and although
fully believe in its value | never understood
the reason of 1t until a learned scientist came
forward with the remarkable theory that

The Singular Adventure of Some Coun-
trymen OF julie. Verne.
A few years ago a French man Of
war was lying at anchor in Temple
bay. and the young officers took it
into their heads to amuse themselves
with an iceberg, mile or more dis
tant in the straits, They would have
sumptuous picnic on the very top
of it All the warnings of the brown
and simple fishermen went for moth
ing with these gentlemen who had
seen the world.
1t was a bright summer morning,
and the jolly boat with a flag went
off to the berg. BY y o'clock the
colors were flying from the top. and
the wild midshipmeu were reveling
on the icy mountain. For two hours
or more they hacked it and clam bered
over it. They frolicked and feasted
and laughed at the very thought OF
danger on this solid ice.
When. like thoughtless children.
the young men had played themselves
weary. they descended to their cookie
she'll of a boat and rowed away.
AS If time and distance had been

view the scene IN safety. the great
iceberg lay silent until the boat was
q certain distance off. Then. as If its
heart had been volcanic fire. it
burst with awful thunder. and filed
the surrounding water with its ruins.
Awed and subdued by the scene of
destruction, and thrilled at their
narrow escape from death. the pic
nickers returned to their ship, 1t
was their first and last day of amuse-
ment with an iceberg, says Youths

The burden laid upon her had been
greater than she could bear-and she
had succumbed.
In his distant Northern home,
Harold Burgoyne was preparing for
his journey. All was in readiness at
last, and his face was alight with hope,
and his heart was full of happiness
''Only three days more. and
shall see my darlingr' he said to
himself, as he stood alone In his room,
with his trunk packed and ready:
''only three short days and l shall
hold her in my arms once more-never
more to part. NY Constance, the
brave, noble Constance, my own for
ever now"'
Some one entered the room, Harold
did not know whom. A telegram was
placed in his hands. Trembling with
vague apprehension, he tore it open,
and read these fatal words:
Constance died an hour ago. Her
last word swere: 'Harold-Good-b by. ="
For the burden laid upon her
Seemed greater than she could bear.
"And forever and forever,
As long the river flows.
As long the heart has passions
As long as life has woes

And Its shadows shall appear.
As the symbol OF love In heaven

Why william b. Bate of Tennessee
Never Lights His Cigar.

Never Lights His Cigar.
William B. Bate. twice elected SEN
ator from Tennessee. never lights a
cigar. He has always one between
his fingers or between his lips, but
no match to put to it. He is ia
miliar figure in the upper chamber
his abundant snow-white hair, a
| carefully tended mustache of the
same color, his stopped form and
lined face, with massive overhung
jaw. making him marked in an as
sembly OF strong personalities.
His advocacy OF the ..dry-smoke. :"
as it is called, and his habit of TWEEN
ty-fve-cent weeds as chewing tobacco
have continued for more than a quar-
ter of a century. A story is at
tached. He is the last man in the
world whom one would suspect of
superstition, but his avoidance OF
matches is due to that part of our
natures and to nothing else.
He entered the war as private when
his state seeded from the Union.
and rose through the successive
grades of lieutenant, captain, lieu
tenant-colonel. colonel brigadier
and ma ajor-general He had a taste
, of military life in the Mexican war
and embraced The first opportunity
to re-enter it. One day toward the
end Of a long and bitter struggle,
when the two stars of the major
general were on his shoulders, his
corps which was part of the army
of the Tennessee, was engaged in a
battle in the mountains.
At that time he was an inveterate
/ smoker. Always cool in action, his
cigar case was as much of his make
up as his horse and saddle. Along
toward noon. when the fire from the
federals under assault was particu-
larly heavy and vicious, he moved
! up to an exposed position in order
to give cOunteuance to his men. His
brother went with him Senator
(the General Bate reached for his
breast pocket and took out cigar.
He bit off the end with customary
nicely, scratched a match on the
back OF his saddle and settled down
in his stirrups to enjoy himself.
There was shock in the air, the
nameless, indefinable STIR produced
by the close passage of a shell or

two inches of the end of the weed
went out Struggling his shoulders
and preparing to get another light,
he glanced about him. His brother
who had been sitting on his horse a
| little to the left and in the rear. was
corpse. The ball had struck him
in the chest. and all that Bate saw
was a mixed mass of dead flesh ten
feet behind. The horse stood an

looked at the unlighted match be-
! tween his fingers. He twirled il
slowly a moment and then rode to the
rear for an ambulance. The cigar he
held in his hand for an hour or two
and slowly chewed into bits
From that day to this he has never
known what it is to smoke. Some
sense of an awful danger providen-
TALLY averted has been with him. 1t
is possible that he has come to look
upon the lighting of cigar as a
| desecration of his brothers memory.
Anyhow he does not light it. Day
after dag in the senate cham ber or
in the corridor Of the capitol he may
be seen with a cigar in his hand that
is frequently carried to his lips, but
1t is unlighted. When worn down to
q mere end he takes another.
