How the Weather Affects the Health.

How the Weather Affects the Health.
You know that the weather affects
your health, but have you ever salts
fed yourself as to how it does it? By
observing the barometer for few
months and comparing your feelings
with its readings you will discover that
they iuctuate in harmony. Then just
a little plain thinking will make it
clear. When the barometer is low the
atmosphere is light and the air pres
sure on the body is considerably less
ened. When this pressure is removed
the blood is forced to the surface and
distends the vessels Weak or diseased
parts are congested, sensitive nerves
submitted to unusual pressure and
a sense of fullness, sort of
stuffy feeling pervades the whole
body. The blood does not flow
freely on account of the loss of nerve
tone, the brain becomes sluggish and
mental acuteness is impaired The
barometer is not responsible for all
this, but it explains how it all hap
pens. Healthy, vigorous persons are
not affected by the changing pressure
and moisture of the atmosphere like
those who are diseased or have weak
spots. They have sufficient vital
energy to resist the tendency to con-
gestion of the small blood vessels and
of the mucus membranes to throw off
more moisture than the atmosphere
will absorb 1t is for this reason that
children and young people in good
health do not suffer to any extent from
atmospheric changes. =. Pittsburgh

FOR YOUNG PEOPLE.
CRUMBS OF COMFORT.


I'm only little grille,
But mother says each day
lean scatter crumbs OF comfort
For others, by the way.
Real crumbs for the tiny sparrows
That flock about tho door,
And greedily eat their breakfasts,
Then chirp to ask for moro.
Loving words for the baby,
And CHEEKY, helpful ways
That Will put q CLEAN OF sunshine
In grandma's darkest days.
Then crrands to run for mother,
And little things to do
That will keep me out OF mischief,
And make me useful, too
II scatter crumbs OF comfort,
Passing along the way,
Perhaps the Lord will turn them
Into loaf. some day.

Well, the Fourth has come and gone
and if everybody, his wife and baby
were not at Wise we cannot imagine
where they were, for we surely had a
crowd. We have no means of approx
imating the number, but they all
seemed to be having a glorious 4th.
One thing has always puzzled us
Where do all the boys come from on
the 4th? They always seem to conc
in squads and each boy endowed with
the natural power of half dozen for
noise. The whiskey fiend was there
also, but he kept himself hid down in
the brush and the rain in the evening
broke up the crowd before his votaries
got drunk enough to make trouble.
We were not on the grounds in
time for the morning program. The
speaking in the afternoon was pleas
ant and well delivered. The speaker
however gave the writer the impress
sion of q man holding himself in
check. A man evidently on strange
ground and feeling his way. II any
one could make out his political status
from that speech, they were smarter
than We correspondent.
Another thing we never could
make out is why people who call
themselves ladies and gentlemen will
annoy a speaker and those who wish
to hear him by their constant chat
ter. Why not at least take themsel-
yes beyond earshot, if they don't wish
to listen, and not openly insult the
sneaker and his audience.
