A YOUNG GIRLS FORTUNE.
AN INTERESTING SKETCH.

Nothing appeals so strongly to a mothers
affection as her daughter just budding into
womanhoOd. Following is an instance: our
daughter, Blanche, now 10 years of age, hal
been terribly afflicted with nervousness, and
had lost the entire use of her right arm. She
was in such a condition that we had 10 keep
her from school and abandon her music les
sons NIn fact we feared st. Vitus dance, and
are positive but for an invaluable remedy she
would have had that terrible affection. We
lad employed physicians, but she received no
benefit from them. The first of last August she
weighed but 20 pounds, and although she has
taken only three bottles of Nervine she now
weighs LOG pounds; her nervousness and symp-
toms of st. Nitus dance are entirely gone she
attends school regularly, and studies with com
fort and ease. She has recovered complete use
of her arm, her appetite is splendid, and no
money could procure for our daughter the health

The Superstitious French.
London Eeus


One of the most curious petitions ever
received by n public nan is that of the
mothers of certain conscripts, which had
been sent to the French Minister of War
These women have been greatly struck
by certain paragraphs which have been
going the rounds Of the press, to the
effect that the figure Is has always had a
baleful infuerce on the career Of he late
Gar of Russia They point out, therefore,
that their sons are particularly unfortunate
in being associated in more than one way
with the same fatal figure.
They belong to what is called the 1888
class, whiGh means that they attain the age
at which they have TO serve in the army i'll
that year, and in consequenceAhey were born
il 1878.
In order to thoroughly appreciate the argu-
ment. it is necessary TO bear in mind that the
French speak OF ~ as sixty-thirteen and
81; as eighty thirteen" Then they were
called TO the ranks on the 18Th OF November,
and those who serve oniy one year viii be re-
leased OH the 18Th Of November Of this year.
The petitioners therefore, pray that their
SONS may be released on the 18th instead OF
the 13th The petition is signed "a Group

The Sioux Mythology

lDr- C. A. Eastman Popular Science HonthEy1
Before the advent of the white maa these
people believed that the earth WAS fiat, with
CIRCULAR form, and was suspended in d
dark space, and sheltered hy the heavens or
sky in the shape of hollow hemisphere.
The sun was regarded Us the father aud the
| earth The mother of ali ihings that live and
grow but as the; had been married q long
time aud had become 4 tie parents Of many
generations, they were cilled the great
grandparents. As far as / can judge. the
moon seemed 10 be their servant; at least,
she required TO watch, together with
her brothers, the stars, over the sleep .ng
universe, while the sun came down 10 rest
with his family.
In the thunder-bird they believed God
| had warrior who presided over ihetnost
powerful elements-the storm and The fear
fnl cyclone. This symbolic creature is de-
picted rs an impatient and wrahy god of
war, at whose appearance even the ever
smiling grandfather, the sun, hides his face.
In the realms Of water the whale is the SYM
boliz,d chief of the fnny tribes. In every
great lake the Sioux imagines a huge fish rs
uler OF its waters.
Yet none Of these possess the power of
speech The Great Mystery had shown
them some truths denied TO man, but he
did not trust them fully, therefore he made
them dumb. They can only show TO man
some supernatural things by signs or in
dreams; as, for instance, 10 foretell future
events or explain the use of certain power
ful remedies. The savage holds that the
key of heaven is vested in The visible
| phenomena OF the uniseIs'. All creatures,
save man, are assigned TO a peculiar para
disc, in which there is a forbidden fruit
namely, the apple of speech and reasoning.
| Hence the animals and inanimate things
, are exempted from sin. Thus it is that
rocks, trees, and rivers are surrounded with
an atmosphere Of grandeur, beauty, and
mystery. Nature is the interpreter of the
Great Mystery, and through her man is
convinced of truth.

Three -fourth5 of The suu's energy that
reaches the earth is in waves, as they are
called, that are too long to affect the eye in
the form o, light, but these "inira-red "
waves play au important part in sustaining
life, and further study OF the spectrum in
which they are arranged viii probably be
the means of solving many important and
| now obscure problems in meteOrOlogy and
kindred subjects This lower part of the
solar spectrum was first explored to any
considerable extent by Mr.. Langley IN 1881, +,
and within the past few months be has ex-
tended the details of his original map
through an entirely automatic process, by
means OF the balometer, an instrument es-
peciaIly devised for the purpose, and brought
to such wonderful Sensitiyeuess that it can
detect change of temperature OF less than
one oDs-miiiionth of a degree.
the latest determination of the distance
OF the sun from the earth is from discus
sion by Dr. Gill OF a series of observations of
the asterOid Victoria. DR.. GilFs result is
J2,S00U9O miles, u figure probably very
close TO the truth, and agreeing well with
the value previously cbtai ned by Prof Hark
ness from AL available data. The tempera-
turc of the sun has been reinyestigate6 by
lie Chateiier III France, and by Gray and
Wilson in England, ard is found to be be-
tween 10000 and 14,0O0 degrees Fahreheit.
Imp0r ant Improvements have been made
in the meth0;;s of studying the suns sur
face by Prof. Hale, of the University of Chi
cago, and NJ. Deskandres, ofthe Paris ObSerya-
tory. Prot. Hale, with an instrument he
calls the spectroheliograpb," secured in
1901 tine first photograph OF the spectrum of
q prominence from the surface of the un-
eclipsed sun, and he has even photographed
successfully the forms OF these enormous jets
of burning gas, rs well as the spots and
facnG or little shining points upon the SIMS
surface. These photographs show that the
fIcu;e are distributed ali over the sun, in
stead of being near the edge only, and their
further study must assured1y add much to
cur knowledge of the suns constitution.

Article 2l-No member Of the force shall

Peter kept repeating this till he knew ii
by heart. He must try something else.
He tecallcctod that he had seen Fitzgerald

locked. So he hegan TO try them without
any definite idea Of what he should do if he

Then he remembered that Fitzgerald must

any more. O, If he could only run! 1T was
so lon,ly, and lie had not gone more Than

Ahi What was that noise?"
He could hear stealthy footstep coming
along the sidewalk on the other side Of the

his heart heat rs if it would break his ribs.
The steps came near lamr-post, and then

When they entered the Captains room
the cnly person there was Fitzgerald in citi-
zen's clothes sitting at the Captains desk.
Peter pulled his helmet over his eyes, and
changed his voice into a kind of grumble.
Where's the Captain he asked.
Fitzgerald did not look at the little police
man. His attention was absorbed by the
prisoner.
Good heavens, you've got Faxon," he ex-
claimed. "'ve been laying for him for the

not help smiling.

How to Read n Book.
LHurpcr's Young Peopte.l

The first thing to do in reading n book. or
story in n m~gazine, or any other thing
worth reading, is to ascertain who wrote it.
An author talks to us in his books, and just
rs we like to know the friends we talk with,
we should like to know the name of the
man or woman whose published thoughts
are entering into our daily lives. Therefore
make it rule, girls, to read the title-page
of the volume in your hand and if there
be preface, unes it he rery long one,
read that too You will in this way estab-
lish an acquaintance with your author; you
will know him by sight, and soon you will
know him more intimately. Every author
has little ways and words of his own, and
