A Hole In a Stone.

When primitive man pierced hole
through u stone for decorative purposes
mainly, the resultant was due to great
deal of trouble and expenditure of time.
When he came across n stone with a hole
in it, he thought the perforation was due
to some miraculous power, and according
ly he endowed the stone with supernatural
attributes. Mans belief in the marvellous
ought to diminish in exact proportion tC
his information. A stone may be formed
of the same slick, only one portion is crys-
tallinc, the other amorphous While the
crystalline part resists abrasion and solu-
ton the amorphous does not. If the amor
phous part lie in the center of a stone
which is in the water, it wastes away, and
so a hole is the result.-Ncw York Times

bring her back to health and strength.
Most women do not understand their own
bodies or the things that make them well
or sick. The ldost frequent cause OF sick
ness in women is the cause last looked for.
A women will go to a doctor when she has
a severe cold, or some acute digestive dis
turbance, but she hcsitates and procrasti-

feminine organism. And yet the latter Is
Infinitely more serious. Ii is the most seri-

is the most dreadful It the most dangerous.
Its consequences are always serious, aud

that the whole body is disturbed. Appetite
