This is the title OF two small volumes containing
selections from the writings OF the clergyman and
man OF letters whose name they bear. The essays
show that Professor Swing cherished strong and
genuine love for the literature OF ancient times
especially for that OF the Greeks and Romans. His
learning was apparently not minute. Sometimes in
these papers 1t has vague indefinite air-for ex-
ample. in the study Of Virgil and in that Of the
Odyssey. His power was exerted along the broader
lines of literary sympathy The necessity that he
felt OF limiting himself to the comprehension of his
hearers or readers also imposed some restrictions
upon him which he nigh, have cast aside under
other conditions. In age and a region practical
to narrowness. he assumed at times the air Of an
apologst for his favorite themes. He took on an
antic disposition humorously mingling the far past

auction is actually an expense to the White
House instead of a source of revenue
though it brings revenue and is of no ex-
pense to the treasury. This is one of the
little things which aggravate a man who
runs againts the red tape of official life.
Col. Wilson is the discussing officer for
the White House, and he purchases all the
furniture and tableware of the President
But he is not the custodian of it. Few
people know that the steward of the White
House can spell his title with a capital S.
His Office is created by statute, and he is
the lawful custodian of The furniture of
the White House. Steward Sinclair took
an inventory of the White House belongings
when he came into Office and gave his pred
eoessor a receipt for what he found. He
also gives receipt to Col. Wilson for each
new piece of furniture or tableware de-
livered to him. When he goes out of office
he will have 10 account tor all of this prop
erty; and he has given a bond i'll the sum of
$40, 200 for IFS safe keeping.
The President cannot take any of the
White House furniture or tableware with
him in to private life rs a souvenir of his
stay in the mansion. When The Harrison
family wanted White House souvenir Mrs.
Mckee brought to Washington the cradle in
which Ben jamin Harrison was rocked and
kept it in the nursery all through her
fathers administration, so that she might
think of it afterward as the White House
cradie.-Washington Star.

would run through families, like six fingers,
cleft palates, stra bismus, and club foot.
Hence DR.. Dana concludes that there never
VIII be- race of giants. and that it is not
desirablest there should be such a race. The
first of these conclusions may be open to
doubt. but the Bible reader hardly will dis
pute the second since he finds in Genesis
the statement that there were giants in the
earth" in the days Immediately proceed
1ngs the deluge, and has no escape from the
conclusion that all of them were drowned
because of their wickedness unless one or
more was among the eight persons who We're
saved in the ark. There is no doubt that
as rule the human beings of to-day are
larger in stature than were the anoients,
and they are longer lived, though that may

Ealdness and Indigestion.

The cause of badness is question which
has personal interest for many people in
these days when The new man" hnds it
almost as difficult TO keep his bair as the
new woman" does to find ii husband. The
theory OF the bald-headed MAN generally is
that his exceptionally active brain has used
UP the blood supply which should have
nourished his scalp; but those whose crop
OF hair still stands untouched by the scythe
of time unkindly HIT that this explana-
tton is of piece with Falstaff's excuse
that he had lost his voice by singing of
anthems" Then there is the theory of the
hat, which we are told makes fGT sanitary
unfighteousness in two ways-allowing no
ventilation, and by its hard rim cutting off
part of the blood supply from the scalp.
Again, there is seborrhoea, which prepares
tie way for fungi that Jigh. the hair.
II would have been wonderful IL that
pathological scaregoat, Indigestion. had not
had this particular Misdeed laid to its
charge. We are not surprised, therefore,
to read in an American contemporary that
dyspepsia is the great cause of badness.
This is how the mischief Is done: Mature"
We are assured. is very Cal eful to guard
and protect and supply the vital organs
with the proper amount OF nutrient; but
when she cannot command sufficient guam
tty Of blood supply fo1 all the organs, ma
turally size cuts Off the supply of parts the
least vital, like the hair ind nails''--iust

The best way to escape badness Is theIe-
fore tn he careful in our diet, and above all
to avoid iIregulaIity in meals--a counsel
of perfection which the busy nan too often
finds Il impossible 10 follow.
We are not prepared 10 deny that ind iees-
ton may have something TO do with bald
ness, but the part II plays is pfobai " alto
gether secondary. We know Of Eo evidence
that bald-headed men are more dyspeptic
thar their nei2ltors, and women who suffer
much-chefly throrgh their own fault-fron
digestive troubles are very seldom bald.

might, with ct least as much plausibility,
