or in their old fogyisln, they choose to
ignore the fact that the muscular, and,
in turn, nervous system, thrives quite
as surely on a variety of attitudes and
motions as does the stomach on a

Those women who preserve the bolt
upright on all occasions when not act
ually in bed need not hope to retain
into middle-life youths most alluring
charnn-plasticity. Muscles, kept ever
on the stretch, must lose their elastic
ity ere very long. There is, it is true,
a sort of automatic springiness that
some ever active women carry with
them into eXtreme-and extremely
graceless-old age. These metallic
starts and jerks hold the same rela-
ton to the easy bouyancy of youth
that the dance of the grasshopper
bears to the soft Itheness of a pretty
Angora.

"cLosE MIXERS" IN DEMAND.

A Trick Bartenders Have of Making
Little Liquor Go a Long Way.
Did YOU ever notice the advertise
ment of New York barkeepers who
want situations? If you did, you have
probably observed that about four out
of five of them announce, among other
accomplishments, that they are CLOSE"
mixers, or quick and economical
mixers, or Saving" mixers. The word
CLOSE" however, seems to be the ia
vorite.
1t is to be inferred that employers
want close mixers, otherwise the man
in search of employment would not
give prominence to that accomplish
ment in his advertisement.
The difference between a close mixer
and one who is not close means a good
deal to the employer. Although in
many places mixed drinks are sold
for more than straight whisky or
straight gin, they are made by the
close mixer so that they cost the
owner of the bar less than does the
straight. The amount of whisky in
ten straight drinks will make fifteen
cocktails or fifteen sours. The bar
keeper, in making mixed drinks, first
puts into the glass the ice and the
sugar, syrup, lemon-juice, bitters or
whatever OIilSA ihSl culeAIS lie USES,
then he pours the whisky, with dash,
on top of the mixture. The drinker
cannot, with his eye, measure the
amount of whisky as he could if it
were poured into the glass as the
Straight is poured.
The skilled barkeeper has a knack
of pouring the whisky out of the bottle
with a splash that makes it appear
that quite a quantity has been used,
in fa IF 10
spoonful has gone to the making of
the mixed drink. There are tricks in
all trades, and the tclose mixer
knows a trick or two.

For my own part I have never

He is said to gamble habitually. but
do not state this of personal knowledge,
because should decline to play with him
even if he were to invite me. The little
difficulty of the right bower up his sleeve
at a recent race meeting was, he says,
satisfactorily disposed of. He does not,
as a rule, spend more than twice his
ges-without counting the ticks, which
he never pays. l believe that 1T is not
true, as has been alleged, that he has
wife in every colonial port. He can not
do anything practical or useful, but ne
has a pretty wit, and has lampooned
several very respectable gentlemen into
the grave.
In Matchmaking he is a past maste4.
It is not true that he has been frequently
horse-whipped, but know for fact
that several persons who at various
times have set at for the purpose OF
horsewhipplng him have returned on
shutters. He is a most earnest, whole
souled gentleman, whose appointment to
the post which he seeks-that OF window

greatest satisfaction to all those who at
present have to lend him half crowns on
application to keep him going.

When Sir George Grey, as governor OF

Waikatos in 1863, Rewi became one Of
the leading Maori generals. For two
years the struggle ragged with varying
success against 10000 British troops,

The stronghold was carried with a

Worry and Indigestion.

Worry is cause and source of un.
told evils. 1t seams the face with
lines and burrows, and has most de-
pressing effect upon that hypersensi-
tive organ, the stomach, which at all
times becomes most unwilling and
laggard servant.
Indeed, it is safe to say that unless
encouraged by a cheerful temper and
bright, or, at least, hopeful, thoughts,
the stomach will lay truant or sulk
and do no work which it can
shirk.
The physical explanation of this is
the close alliance of the great sympa-
thetic nerves, which are worse than
the telegraph for carrying bad news /;
the worry and anxiety which depress
the brain produce simultaneously q
semi-paralysis of the nerves of the
stomach, gastric juices will not flow,
and-Presto, there Is indigestion. One
sign of mental health is serenity
of temper and self-cOntrOl
that enables US to bear with equanlmi-
ty and unruffied temper the petty
trials and jars of life, especially those
arising from the contact with scolding,
irascible, irritating folk. 1t is well to
remember at such times that these un-
fortunates are their own worst ene-
mics, and a cultivation of the art of
not hearing will help us very much.
1t is a very useful art all through
life and well worth some trouble to
acquire.

COxey's Army.

Everybody has had something TO say o.
Coxey's army and the treatment TO which
they were subjected in Washington.
They were clubbed by the police, taken to
the guard house, tried In the Mayors court
and fined for walking on the grass about the
White House.
The Press an Banner believes that the Co1ey
people were shamefully treated by the city
police and newspaper correspondents VINO
tried to ridicule them and make jokes at the
expense of their poverty.
Coxey and his crowd made no hostile de-
monstrations They were refused hearing
by the President. and the police did not al
low him to speak from the steps OF the White
House.
II Coxey had headed a great crowd OF rich,
we'll dressed people there is no doubt bnt
that Cleveland would have welcomed them
in great style, and none Of them would have
been dubbed by the police, or fined for walk
ing on the grass.
Little ill-mannered newspaper writer's
would have said nothing derogatory OF the
rich.
Very few decent or respectable newspapers
ridicule the clothing of poor people.
TO attempt wit at the expense OF the poor
mans clothing 1s offensive to every instinct
Of decency and respectability.
The probability Is that Coxey and the Wash
ington police are makinga chapter IN his
tory.

King had relented and the children OF Israel

Promised Land, the waters lay between

hope that we may fioally reach the better
land beyond the stars must forever perish in
our own souls.
However Impossible the task may appear,
trusting that the Lord may do for US as he
did for the children Of Israel-at the supreme
moment lend his presence and manifest his
power.
We must sometimes walk by faith, not
knowing how we are to succeed. We must
make the effort, trusting the result to him
who rules the dry land. and commands the
waters Of the sea to stand aside.
Like the children of Israel, we must have
faith In the wisdom Of the Almighty, and we
must implicitly trust to his goodness for de-
liverance from evil, and, as little children,
we must await the Fathers loving kindness

Literary CurfOsitieS.

There are number of words in the
English language that contain all the
five regular vowels though it might
puzzle any one to think of one at
short notice. The following may be
given as examples; education, reputa-
tion, regulation, emulation, perturba-
ton, mensuration, repudiation. Be-
sides these, there are several words
that contain all the vowels including
the "y." Of these we may mention
revolutionary, Evolutionary and un-
questionably. The word indivisibility
may be noted as peculiar word, for it
contains the letter "i" six times
Mississippi and Tennessee are each
spelled with the use of four different
letters, although one contains eleven
letters and the other nine. Cchnarps,
word of one syllable and eight let
ters, contain but one vowel. There are
no words in the English language of
more than eight syllables. OF those
