LET THEM JUMP.
The Baby Uses Muscular Energy to
Express Its Pleasure.

The Baby Uses Muscular Energy to
Express Its Pleasure.
The movements and habits of young
baby seem so strange to us because they
are so different from those made by
adults, and because they are SO uncon-
sciously performed. Joy is expressed
by muscular movements, by wriggling
Of the hands and toes, or by convulsiYe
beatings of the arms, when it is small;
by ',jigging," when it is larger. These
movements are expressive of Joy be-
cause to any animal of highly y-developed
muscular energy movement is abso-
lutely essential, and particularly pleas
ing, while stiffness is the reverse. 1t is
muscular excitement, chiefly no doubt
electrical, heritage from ancestors who
knew not what it was to be still, that
gives that restlessness to children, and
causes them to find so much pleasure
in mere motion and muscular exertion
of any kind.
Jumping for joy is very literally correct
of chIld's expression of pleasure. The
prospect of a sweet will excite a series of
leaps to indicate delight, and they further
serve the purpose OF relieving the tedium
of waiting the half-Second necessary TO
the donation. The pleasure of finding a
birds nest with the egg in it-a pleasure
which must have been very real some
times IN the case of hungry monkeys
and savage man, but is now only a sur
yival Of the instinct thus tormed-this
pleasure boy expressed by series of
convulsive leaps into the air, and during
the performance not only were the arms
and legs moved as much as possible but
the muscles of the stomach and vocal
organs had to be utilized to cause accom-
panying shouts.
1t may be remarked that in adults,
when limb movements are less active,
shouts are, on account of the muscular
action involved, necessary accompani-
ment OF joy, noticeable in AIRY on
bank holiday; while in some cases ex-
pletives are symptomatic of Joy and not
of anger. All these outward signs have
had their origin in that nerve-excitation
inducing muscular action which is
heritage from ancestors who, impelled
by hunger, by love, or by war, led more
active lives and thereby obtained desire
for motion as second nature
Children and young lambs are very
familiar examples; and so strongly will
the latter pursue their gambols and rae
lngs that broken heart is sometimes a
cause of death in the middle of a sudden
gallop. Ii children have to be still it is
torture to them-positive torture in some
cases-and growr-up people are unaware
how much, or they would not thought
fully int1ict 1T on young children. Mus
cular ache. the fidgets, growing pain in
the limbs, are all the result of enforced
inactivity in children. 1t is similar with
athletes; their muscular excitement is SO
strong that movement is pleasure, still

Most all Of our weed pests are annuals,
and we are to blame for their reappear-
ance because we let them go to seed
yearly. Even the dreaded Russian thistle

An example of the enormous decrease
OF the value of farm lands in England is
Afforded by recent sale of 5000 acres for
50 an acre. The same land was sold
thirty years ago for $40 an acre. The
land tax and the titheS which are col

amount to 5O per cent. of the rent paid
for the use of the land at the present

Give the hogs the run of pasture,
with good water and comfortable quar-
ters to sleep, and feed ground, soaked
iced, and there will be handsome profit
on the investment. If hogs are kept up
in small lot and fed on dry corn alone,
and that shoveled out in mud, dirt and
cobs and droppings from the herd, you
need not expect to come out without
loss.
Just now, while the price of eggs is
high. the food should be diversified. Corn
alone will cause masses Of fat to form on
the internal organs and the egg supply
will be stopped. Corn fed. or too fat
hens, can be detected by their SLOW,
sleepy and sluggish movements. If eggs
are desired stop the corn, except in small
quantity at night Feed grain and give
daily ration of meat in some shape
raw is best, and green cut bone is still
better.
1t is said that the Arabs have two
methods of estimating what will be the
hight of horses. By the first a cord is
stretched from the nostril over the ears
and down along the neck; this distance
is compared with that from the withers
to The feet; the colt will grow as much
taller as the first distance exceeds the
second. By the other method the dis
tance between the knee and the withers
is compared with that from the knee to
the coronet. Ii it has reached the pro-
portion Of two to one, the horse will
grow no taller.

SOUTH DURHAM MISSION.

Durham is eminently city of
churches 1T is thickly dotted with
church spires, and the man or woman
who passes from earth to the unknown
beyond can never say that it was be-
cause the God-fearing, God-servinG peo-
pie of this city had failed to offer every
facility or to open up every avenue Tor
his or her escape.
An interesting work is being done
in the southern portion OF the city, at
South Durham Mission. At the last
quarterly conference of Trinity church
under the presiding eldership OF Dr.
F.. \. Yeates, in 1894, the question OF
establishing a mission in South Dur
ham was discussed and n committee
appointed to look into the matter. This
was the beginning of work that Is
growing into magnificent dimensions.
The committee made Il favorable re-
port and the work was actively begun.
IL. w. Matthews, who had from the be-
ginning taken an active interest IN the
projected mission, generously donated
a high and beautiful site upon which
to build chapel, and soon the money
TO erect the building was raised. In
NAV, 1891. work was begun, and now
on South street stands a beautiful
and well-fnished editice 24X40 feet, and
already the congregations far exceed
it's capacity, and its enlargement IS
only a question of a short time.
Since the completion of the chapel
divine services have been regularly
conducted by Rev y. II. Hall, Alex.
Walker and Capt, +. j. Parrish. Dur
ing September and October last, for
four weeks a series of meetings we're
held in the chapel by Rev. j.. 4. Hall
and Capt. j. J. Parrish, and as result
of their efforts fifty-two persons were
converted. Crowds nightly tiocked TO
hear the gospel, and it was clearly
shown then that the chapel was entire
ly too small.
On the 18th of July, 1894, a Sunday
school was organized, with member
ship of 54S, Joseph q. Piper being cleo
ted superintendent, Thomas Nj. Ste
vens. assistant superintendent, and IL.
NJ. Smith, secretary and treasurer To-
day the school numbers pa scholars, )
officers and 10 teachers. Mr.. j. Il. Fl
per, the efficient superintendent, I'M
der whose guidance the school has
made such rapid strides, IS also super
intendent of the mammoth factory OF
BIackwells Durham Tobacco com
pany. a position he has filled so well
that everybody connected with the es-
adjustment is delighted with his adj
ministration. Mr.. Stevens and Mr..
Smith are both valuable assistants and
have done much in the upbuilding OF
the school at South Durham Mission.
This is but one other of many in
stances wherein Durham people are
giving largely of their time and money
for the upbuilding OF Christ's king
dom. The mission is the work of Trim
ity church.

He SHOT HIS WIFE

Vt Warm Springs, in Western Caro-
lima, Thursday there was serious fam
ily disturbance. resulting in the shoot
ing OIL BETTE Davis, known in Durham
as Bette Banks, by her husband, Sol.
Davis. He shot her five times in the
bowels infiicting wounds from which
she died Friday evening at ! O'Clock.
Some years ago Sol. Davis and Bette
Banks. two bright mulattoes and a
mong the elite in Durham colored so
ciety were happily married. But their
welded bliss did not extend far beyond
the honey moon, for III three months
they had separated. The separation
continued for five or six years without
interruption. About eight months
ago their former courtship was renew
ed and again they started on LIES
journey hand in hand as man and wife.
From Durham they went to Asheyille
and from there drifted to Warm
Springs. Thursday Bettie's mother,
W no lives in this city, received tele-
gram urging her to come at once and
conveying the sad intelligence of the
shooting.
Canon Banks, Bettie's step-father
left at once for Warm Springs and will
return this morning at 1924 with the
body OF the unfortunate woman. She
leaves several little children.
