Yawning as q Remedy.

Yawning, though contrary to the canons
of good society, is ldoubtedly very bene-
fetal to the individual. Muscles are
brought into play during a good yawn
which otherwise would never obtain any
exercise at ell, and its value as a sort Of
natural massage is considerable The
muscles which move the lower jaw and
the breathing muscles of the chest are the
first ones used during the process of gap
ing then the tongue is rounded and
arched, the palate tightly stretched and
the uvula raised. The eyes generally close
tightly toward the termination of the
yawn, the ears are raised slightly and the
nostrils dilatod. The crack sometimes
heard in the ear proves that the aural
membranes are also stretched and exer
cised, something impossible by any proc
ess but a yawu. 1t has recently been rec
commended by some doctors that sufferers
from nasal catarrh should make practice
of yawning six or seven times day and
good results will follow. 1t is also consld-
cred valuable in Inflammation of the pal
ate, sore throat and earache. New York

TIE establishment Of a system Of
rudimentary instruction in Russia, prom.
ised by The new Gar, will be one of the
most important educational procedures
of the modern or any other period, and is
a necessary prelude to the complete civili-
cation of that country. That and Parlia.
mentary government will give them a
long lift ahead and perhaps mitigate
ome Of the National and social discon-
tents which make the lives of Cars and
other high personages so uncomfortable.
Russia is far behind all the European
countries in the matter ofseducation as of
civilization in general, and has a long
road to travel before she overtakes them.
But her people are quick, ingenious and
teachable, and there is no telling what
destinies may await them when they are
educated up to the Prussian or United
States standard. Instead of constituting,
as now, buffer between Europe and Asia,
It may come to absorb both these great
territorial divisions of the globe and look
out upon the United States, its only rival,
across both the Atlantic and the Pacific.
Anything is possible to a land of such
situation and resources.

1T is not kind in the President to threaten
us with an extra session of Congress, un-

the fact that if he calls an extra session,
it will be Republican Congress that will
meet Apparently the threat was intend.
ed to drive the present Congress into some
action on revenue and currency bills. But
members know right well that the Presi.
dent does not want a Republican c n
gress to act on these matters. His threats,
in truth, are the emptiest and most fool
ish imaginable. The Democratic mem
bers TO whom they are addre 3sed are per
fectly aware that he does not want to
have sent to him for approval or veto
such bills as Republican Congress would
assuredly pass Moreover, he does not
want to have the Hawaiian business in
vestigated, or the Samoan business, or
the Nicaragua business, or the Behring
Sea business, Stil less does he wan to

No; the President is not hungry to have
any Republican majority in Congress look
into thugs this year, What he profess
edly wants is provision for the revenue
and tie anticipated deficit. But theq quick
res pouse of Democrats in both houses to
private suggestions from the White House
appears to indicate that the President has
an idea that his state bank scheme can be
forced through Congress at this session,

we'll He will find it slow work, Although
members of the House and the Senate,
who are particularly subservient TO his
wishes. begin to talk and act as If they
wanted to do something in these matters,
they are 4ll well aware that they have no
power. On the tariff they cannot actyun-
less in direction of smashing the Sugar
Trust. On the currency they cannot act,
unless the Democratic Congress sends to
the President free silver bill to be vetoed.
His party may readily advocate his state
banking plan, ingeniously devised to kill
the National banks, but it will never get
through the senate. The President knows

THE ultimate object of the Democratic
currency tinkers is to drive the country
back to the old system of state banks,
under which the value of note depended
very largely upon it's distance from the
concern that issued it. Back of ali the
tinkering, arguing and theorizing of the
currency quacks lies a determined and
ill-concealed purpose to destroy the pres
ent National banking system and replace
it with a scheme that will unbalance the
existing safety and equality Of the cirou-
lating medium and develop speculation in
bank notes into a nourishing industry

euIL1 200 YEARS AGO.


Japan possesses what is undoubtedly the
Oldest wooden structure in the world. 1t
contains the art treasures Of the mikado
and is situated at Nara, which for some
years was the imperial residence. The
building Is oblong in shape and is built Of
triangular logs of wood 1t rests on piles
The wood used is of native growth and
shows extraordinary lasting power con-
sidering the trying climate which it has
had to endure for over /, 200 years A pc
ouliar feature about the logs of which the
building is constructed is that in the parts
most exposed to the weather the logs are
thinner by several inches than those in a
more sheltered position the wood having
gradually worn away. The treasures
which the storehouse contains are of great
antiquity and have only been seen by Eu-
ropeans during the last three years. They
consist of rare and beautiful fabrics of
Persian, Indian, Chinese and Turkish
manufacture and ancient articles of 'ver-
tn" from all parts of the world. Among
the objects of interest is the earliest known
specimen of Japanese printing. Even to-
day many of the words are easily decipher-
able. The treasures have remained un-
disturbed in the same building for 200
years, and despite the troublous times
through which it has been in existence it
has never been injured OF disturbed. Many
of the treasures are still packed up in the
storehouse chamber underground, where
they have lain for hundreds of years. and
when they are brought to view some new
light may be thrown upon the early history
of the country. They may and probably
will disclose much valuable information
about the other Asiatio countries, because
the collection Is culled from all parts Of
Asia, and it is to treasures such as these
that we are indebted for most of our
knowledge of the early nations of the east
New York World.

CAN ANTS TALK
Another Tribute to the Brain Power Of
These Remarkable Insects.

These Remarkable Insects.
was one day standing in my garden
near the trunk Of an old willow tree, up
which a scattered line of ants was crawl
ing. After time 1 observed an occasional
straggler coming down in the opposite di-
rection. Here and there a couple of ants
ascending and descending, CHANGED TO
meet but there was no stoppage and no
talk Presently, at about five feet from the
ground, I smeared little hollow in the
trunk with a large spoonful Of thick trea-
Gle to see how long it would remain undis-
covered. / then went away for a short
time, and on my return found about a
dozen ants busily feasting on the treasure
A minute or two later one of the feastrs
crawled slowly down the trunk with
heavy feet, and when near the ground met
a friend, whom he suddenly arrested on
his way up, and with his antenn8, which
he piled vigorously, held a good talk.
What was said know not but the friend
knew and thereupon marched steadily on
up the tree to the newly found treasure.
Meanwhile the bearer of the good tidings
made his own way quickly back to the
nest few yards off in the grass, to which
/ watched him. He was soon lost to view
but beyond all doubt soon spread the news
of treasure trove throughout the colony.
Within half an hour of that time a long
unbroken line of hungry ants was march
ing direct to the tree, making straight for
the feast remaining there for a time and
then returning to the nest in another line
on the other side of the willow, This proc
ess of ascending and descending termites
went on for some hours-in fact, until
dusk-when the numbers of advancing
guests grew less and less and finally
ceased. Before it was dark not a single
ant was to be seen, though early the next
morning fresh band of adventurers set
out in the same fashion, coming and 60
ing all day until every morsel of the sweets
had disappeared.
Here, therefore, clearly some talk of the
surprising dainty had taken place between
the two ants meeting on the road to it,
while tidings had been carried to the col
ony, which at once reused all the inmates
to go forth direct to the feast possibly led
by the very guide who had first discovered
it, So much fer the general intelligence
which enljghtens and guides the whole
life and work Of this wise nation of in
sects. London Culver.
