How to Repair Mirrors,

For repairing mirrors accidentally scratched clean the bare portion of the glass by rubbing it gently with fine cot ton, taking care to remove any traces of dust and grease. If this cleaning is not done very carefully, defects will appear around the place repaired. With point of a knife cut upon the back of another looking glass a portion of the silvering of the required form, but a little larger. Upon it place drop of mercury. A drop the size of 6 pins head will be sufficient for a surface equal to the size of a nail. The mercury spreads immediately, pene- trates the amalgam to where it was cut off with the knife, and the required piece may now be lifted and removed to the place to be repaired. This is the most difficult part of the operation. Then press lightly the renewed portions with cotton, and the glass presents the same appearance as when new.

How tn yentilate a Church

The proper ventilation of churches is a subject that ought to receive more careful attention, especially during the season when fires and closed windows are in order. Church auditoriums are, to all practical purposes, dramatically sealed immediately after the Sunday service and never opened again until the following Sunday. Meanwhile all the bad air incident to the massing to- gether of any number of people is left to stagnate and work its baneful infiu- ence upon the next congregation.
 This is all wrong Churches should be thoroughly aired after every service. Open the windows and let pure air have free circulation during the week, an abundant supply for Sunday. There is more true worship in well ventilated church than in a surpliced choir, and ill great many instances the sexton is more to blame for a drowsy, inattentive congregation than the parson. Vitiated air is neither conducive to the health of the body nor to the soul.

on a solid skull, usually ruins the hand and docs not injure the head, while tho Eattened glove permits free use of the widest swings with but little danger. Again blow from the fist cuts and bruises more than 1t stuns, while the glove, without hruising, extends its leverage and paralyzes the vital faculties. Practically, therefore, the question of tho knockout blow may be summed up as follows: With the gloyo came the frce arm swing, and with the swing came the knockout blow.
 The physiological data of the knockout are, according to physicians, simple enough. A shock landing on thin DOT tion of the skull is transmitted to the me- dulla, the center of the nerve forces, and temporarily paralyZes those forces. A blow upon the neck may have the same effect, as large nerves, likewise connecting with the medulla, are therein located.
 The point for knockout blow varies according to the style and ideas of differ ent fighters, but all agree that "the point of the jaw" is the place. This favored spot is not the exact tip of the chin, but at a place about one inch back along the iawbone. A line drawn diagonally down from the corner of the mouth will intersect thc territory.
 Dr. G. Frank Lydston of Chicago, who Is something of n boxer as well as n sur geon, says: There are several ways of ac- complaining a knockout. A heavy blow on the temple, jaw, cheek or nose, If given with sufficient vigor, will produce a slight concussion of the brain and con sequcnt insensibility. Much of the knock out is due, however, to the force with which the falling mans head and body strike tho ground. The ideal knockout Is blow so delivered as immediately to transmit its force to tho medulla, where tho respiratory centers and the nerves governing the heart have, so to speak, their main office. A knockout is not so readily accomplished when tho muscles are in q state of tension and the cervical vertebre protected by this rigidity. But when the muscles are taken by surprise a light blow will stagger the medulla, and the man Is rendered unconscious with but slight injury.
 Few fighters excepting Bob Fitzsim. mons, who is said to have learned tho fact and applied it, know that a tremendous | knockout can be administered by down ward blow with the palm of the hand | landed on the top of the frontal bone, the upper margin of tho forehead. 1 have heard of knockouts on the jugular vein, but the jugular has nothing to do with the effect. Between the jugular and car otid artery lies the pneumogastric nerve, | which controls the respiration, and q | shock there reaches the medulla almost as quickly as one upon the jaw"

distinguished by its red or black colors The four squares near each edge form the headquarters of the general out of which he and his two secretaries cannot move On each side of the headquarters are two elephants, two horses and two chariots whose power are less than our bishop knight and castle, though similar. The chariot Is the most powerful piece. In front of the horses stand two cannoneers, who capture like our knight, but move like our castle. Five soldiers or pawns guard tho river banks, but cannot return when once ncross it in pursuit of the en- emy and get no higher value when they reach tho last row. Each piece is put down in the point where 1t captured its man. except the cannoneers.
 As the general cannot be taken, the ob- iect of each player Is to checkmate him in his headquarters, therefore preventing his moving except into check. The want oi queen and the limited moves of the men restrict the combinations in the Chinese game more than in western chess, but it has its own clements of skill.
