A Congressman's Mail,

Aside from the congressman's regular
duties in committee and on the floor of the
house, his correspondence hitherto has
consumed the lions share of his time, d.
rectly or by consequence. AS a rule nearly
every letter received by him entails the
writing of three letters on his part-frst.
one of acknowledgment; second, one of
inquiry, addressed to some official in one
of the departments, and, third, one an
%nouncing the result to the constituent. In
addition, the departments have to be Wis
tied frequently in search of information
and many other errauds have to be per
formed by the statesman who would faith
fully represent his people.
The daily mail of some of the leading
congressman, and even Of some of the most
obscure ones, often amounts to so, rs or 100
letters, chiefly Of an official nature. If A
representative undertook to answer. them
himself and supply the wants expressed in
them by their writers, he would find it alb
~solutely impossible to do anything else. On
the other hand, if he attempted to perform
his broader duties by participating in the
discussions and legislation of the day, he
would have to cave his letters unopened

A New Way to Avoid Colds.

For many years my occupation took me
to crowded political and labor meetings,
generally held in rooms destitute of any
means of ventilation. The heat was in
tense, the air fetid and poisonous. l have
left such meetings bathed in perspiration
and plunged into the chill air of a winters
night, thereby running the risk of catching
the severest cold. Yet, strange to say, l
enjoyed a singular immunity from such
a~ggravating ailments.
At the first touch Of cold air I took a
deep inspiration and then held my breath
for half a minute, in the meantime walk
ing as fast as l could. During&Sat half
minute the pores of the skin were closed
against the chilling atmosphere, and by the
time the lungs called for refrigeration
the body had considerably cooled, and the
risk Of q chill was over.
recommend this practice to public speak
ers, vocalists, entertainers and those who
are obliged to frequent unduly heated
rooms. In my own case the practice never
failed, and although fully believed in it's
value I never understood the reason of it
until a learned scientist came forward with
the remarkable theory that while holding
the breath the skin could be maintained
impenetrable to the sting of the bee.-Jeu-

The worms know we'll that rapid heaving
of tho soil which betokens the approach or
a mole to their innocent burrows, II the
momen they feel it rush wildly to the sur
face, prepared rather to face the worst thnt
lark or blackhird may bring upon them
than to await the onslaught Of their most
ruthless and ~bloodthirsty enemy. IL you
Nix a pointed stick into the ground and
shake the earth a little by moving it from
side to side, you will find dozens of worms
hurry up to the surface at once under the
mistaken impression that the petty earth
quake is some mole's doing, for the senses
of earthworms are extremely keen and
their perception of danger most acute and
vivid.
A person unaccustomed to the ways OF
worms might wonder that enough of them
could be found in the comparatively small
tract Of land which each mole taboos or oc-
Cupies as his W to satisfy the needs OF so

q 1t is the entire drama Of nature on a

exist, and exist in thousands, because there
are myriads and myriads of dead leaves for
them to live upon. Almost every dead leaf

A Cure For Damp Houses,

People who are unfortunate enough to
live in damp houses, particularly near I'M
drained land, are apt TO think that there is
no help for them save in removal. They
are mistaken. Successful experiments have
shown that it is quite possible to material
ly improve the atmosphere in such neigh
borhoods in a very simple manner-by the
planting of the laurel and the sunflower.
The laurel gives off an abundance of ozone,
while the soulful eyed" sunflower is po-
tent in destroying the malarial condition.
These two, if planted on the most restricted
scale in a garden close to the house, will be
found to speedily increase the dryness and
%salubrlty of the atmosphere, and rheuma-
tism, if it does mo entirely become a mem
DRY of the past, will be largely alleviated.-

WHY Hens Eat Their Ernx-

There IS always a reason for everything.
and hens eat their eggs because their food
is not sufficient to satisfy their necessities,
If only grain is fed to fowls, whose natural
food is partly animal-chiefy insects and

food as a substitute, and the eggs furnish
this, So if the fowls are given some meat.

Train WreckinE In Massachusetts.

II it be true, US statistics Indicate, that
more attempts to wreck and rob railway
trains are made in Massachusetts than in
any other state, it is also probably true that
fewer of these attempts prove successful
than in any other state. The business at
best is a bad one and ought, without un
necessary delay, to be effectually sup
pressed.-Boston Manufacturers Gazette.
