WORRY AND INDIGESTION.
Worry is a baneful curse and source Of
untold evils 1t seams the face with lines
and burrows, and has most depressing
effect upon the representative organ, the
stomach, which at such times becomes
most unwilling and laggard servant. In
deed, 1t is safe to say that unless encour-
aged by cheerful temper and bright or
at least hopeful thoughts, the stomach
will play truant, or sulk and do no work
when it can shlrk. The physiological ex-
planation of this is the close alliance OF
the great sympathetic nerves, which are
worse than the telegraph for carry ing bad
news; the worry and anxiety which de-
press the brain produces simultaneously
semi-paralysis of the nerves of the stom-
ach, gastric juices will not flow, and pres
to! there is indigestion. One sign OF
mental health is serenity of temper
and q selt-control that enables US

THE EARACHE.
Many of the current cures for earache
advise the dropping of various substances
into the ear. One of the best specialists
of the day pronounces this usually an
unadvisable prOcedure,n and in the place
of such remedies prefers the application
of warmth to the region OF the ear, either
by dry heat in the form of heated flannel.
cotton wool, bags of hops, bran or meal,
or by clothes wrung out of hot water,
steam or poultices Of haxseed or roasted
onions.
Cotton should not habitually be worm
Wedged into the ear, for the reason that
the air passage is thus closed, causing the
secretons of the ear to flow more slowly
or very little, and thus causing an un-
natural and disagreeable and perhaps in
furious dryness. AS, bOwever, many
cases OF acute aural trouble have resulted
from bathing, and especially from diving
and plunging into salt water, it is wise
precaution to plug the ears with cotton at
such times.
PHOTOGRAPHY.
Another auVauco III photography Las
been made by DR.. j. Jolly, f. r. S., who
showed set of photographs in natural
colors. These were projected on to a
screen. Last year colored photographs
were eXhibitad in which three images
were superimposed by projection. In
these photographs there is only one
image, and the colors are just as they
registered themselves on tho plate.
They are taken just like ordinary photo
graphs with a dry plate. except that a
screen lined in particular colors is
placed in the camera in front of the sem
sitive plate. The positive is subsequently
viewed through a screen lined with three
other colOrs.
SHOE LEATHER.
"For years." says a Maine manufact-
urer, ''shoes of a cheap grade have been
made Of what is known as leather board.
1t is compressed paste. There Is fac
tory i'll my State which turns out tons of
it every month. Many OF these shoes are
sent to Central and South America and.
as a matter of fact, thousands are sold
here.
''As long as the weather is dry they
wear first rate, but when you strike rain
you're gone almost surely. Two wet
tings and you want to look out. When
you invest in your summer shoes be sure
they are what you want. Leather is ex-
pensive, and you can't cover your feet
with IL for trifie."
