Milk and merrIment have much to do
with the plump beauty Of the babies.
The woman who wants to round out her
attenuated anatomy. fill up the hollows
In her neck and face and grow magical
dimples at her joints must be merry.
Worry is wearing and aging. Cross peo-
pie always look old. Fretting upsets
the nervous system and deranges the
digestive order. Tell a woman a piece
OF bad news at table and she will be III
on the spot. Hurrying Keeps people lean
and ugly looking. Haste makes more
waste than gain. 1t is better to lose an
early train or miss an early worm or
two than catch both and lose a sweet
disposition. What does 1t matter II the
new dress is 1t day late. Cultivate a su-
preme contempt for the little vexations

doubtediy been surprised at and perhaps lost In
admiration OF A. II. Jones's geometrical problem
OF the three right-angled trlangles with equal

change of dimension produced a change OF area

he would handy words with the rat, but would
make q swift and sure end Of him. barked furious
ly round the trap. and watched eagerly for the rat
to come out. At last the door OF tho trap was
opened. and the Scotch terrier tried hard to blum
tho rat. but failed misorably. The rat easily
lodged him and ran the gauntlet. There was q
general scufne among the numerous dogs pres
