Strange Muscular Power that Assists Them

used to ride round together every after

it in, until it takes about all his time

'Do take the vestibule," said Sis, $50 that
they can't drop through
For if you spill few Of them, whatever would
you do?''
But though they joked and though she laughed,
she had heap Of fears,
And sometimes grew so nervous that she
sought relief in tears.
But when the morning dawned at length, and
all the eight were dressed,
So spick and span, and prim and trim, all in
tneir Sunday best,
She made her mind up, then and there, to not

Say Alfred, Lillian, Benjie, Sue, Lucille, Jack,
Maud and James
But simply count them as they stood when they
got off the train
'Twould save deal Of thinking and confusion
Of the brain
So off they started on their way, arriving there
at noon
I'm sure she never thought to reach the place
SO very soon;
The brakeman and conductor both helped all
her little brood
To disembark; then she began to count them
as they stood,
And tOne. two, three, four, five, six, seven,
she said aloud, then stopped
The people all were laughing, SO she thought
she would have dropped.
Each window held grinning face-none looked
unless he smiled
So, mortified, she stopped before she counted
the eighth child.
The engine bell began to ring, the train moved
slowly on
She turned in nervous haste to see if any child
were gone.
She knew she d counted only seven, when they
should number eioht,
Of freight.

Forgetting all things save her loss, nor needing

"And here are seven, the stranger says
pray quiet your alarms
The eighth-well. how will this one do you're
holding in your arms:'
She clasps her little Benjie boy and laughs
and cries by turns,
Then, seeing all the smiling crowd, her poor
face burns and burns

ABOUT OURSELVES.

THE normal temperature Of the stom-
hch is about 90 degrees. Food has to be-
raised to this temperature before it can
be digested.
THE three small bones stretched in q
chain across the middle ear are named
the mallet, the anvil and the stirrup,
from real or fancied resemblances.
THE hair appears to have life OF It's
own. Many well-authenticated In
stances are known of the hair of dead
bodies increasing in length after inter,
ment.
THE brain Of man Is the most high
ly convoluted Of that Of any animal in
the world. The lower the animal In
the scale of intelligence the smoother
the brain.
THE human lungs retain the air In
their substance with such obstinacy
that it cannot be expelled by any COM
preston short of absolutely disin-
tegrating the tissue.
AERAT1oN of the blood takes place to
some extent through the skin. In man
the skin gives off a thirtieth to six
tieth part of the carbonic acid gas CIV
en- out by the lungs.
THE test for symmetry is to turn q
man with his face to the wall. If he
is perfectly formed his chest will touch
It, his nose will be four inches away,
his thighs five. the tips of his toes
three.
In a perfectly formed female figure
twice royp6 the thumb should be once
round the wrist; twice round the wrist
should be once round the upper arm;
twice this is once round the neck; one
and a half times the circumference OF
the neck equals that Of the waist.

While the two Americans, Messrs

as preseut.
This method of eXtortion was fol-
lowed the next morning by one of
bolder and more peremptory ma
ture. Notwithstanding the feast
of the night before at our
expense, and in addition to furnishing
us with bedclothes which we really
ought to have been paid tosleep in, our
oily host now insisted upon three or
four prices for his lodgings. We refused
to pay him more than a certain sum,
and started to vacate the premises.
Thereupon he and his grown son caught
hold of our bicycles. Remonstrances
proving of no avail, and being unable
to force our passage through the mar.
row doorway with the bicycles in our
hands, we dropped them and grappled
with our antagonists. A noisy Scuffie
and then heavy fall ensued, but luck
lily we were both on the upper side.
This unusual disturbance now
brought out the inmates of the adjoin
ing anderoon. In moment tn ere was
a din of feminine screams and fiutter
of garments, and then-a crashing of
our pith helmets beneath the blows OF
pokers and andirons. The villagers,
thus aroused. came at last to our
rescue, and at once proceeded to patch
up compromise. This, in view of the
Amazonian reinforcelnents. who were
standing by in readiness for a second
onset, we were more than pleased tc
accept. From this inglorious combat
we came off without serious injury.
but with those gentle poker taps were
knocked out forever all the sweet de-
lusions of the Light of the Harem. =
