THE HYGIENE OF THE EMoT,:,xs
How the Worry of the Mind Af,:.cts

" the worry OF the Mind Afi,.cts

One OF the new discoveries of hyeie, . is
the fact that in the emotions we nave

SLOWLY but surely worn out, even wit ,out
the sufferer himself suspecting what the
secret canker Is. DR.. NJ L. Hoit..ook
SHOWS the importance Of keeping our sod
ny expenses at or near our physiological
resources. Many persons whose habits
VI eatihe' drinking, dressing, bathing, etc,
are unexceptionable. are so extravagant in
their expenditures of vital force that thev
are always below par in health. This js
| characterized as physiological extraya-
gance, immoral bodily conduct. There
are times when the bodily resources must
De freely spent for others, as in emereer-
cles. sickness, etc, but after the strain is
over the powers may be recruited by rest
sp, sieep, recreation and food, and no special
harm ensues. If this is not done there
may be danger of a permanent break
down. The nervous forces are spent most
rapidly through the emotional nature. The
and preasuraple a emotions are love, hope. joy
ana peace. These are health-giving. and

painful emotions are fear, hate anger and

large number Of electrical men are more

afflicted of these stopped a Review man on
Broadway on one of those sweltering DAYS

Why, a man and his wife and their son
were waiting at a street corner in Brook

The boy said, Here it comes" Now, who
of the three was correct?"

he took firm grip ON his umbrella.

things very lively for them. Suddenly the
whale, at least sixty feet long, and a fine
specimen generally, rose out of the ocean
and manifested decided disposition to
cultivate their acquaintance. During sew
eral hours 1t renamed alongside, frequent
ly rubbing its sides against the schooner
Capt. Beal tried to take soundings, but his
fourteen-pound lead was taken inside by
the whale at once. At last, to the great
relief Of all on board, the whale went
down, and when 1t came to the surface
started off rapidly. Capt. Beal is an old
sailor but this was his first experience OF
the kind.

Sir Joshua. Gainsborough, Romney, the
men Of genius who embody a brilliant
epoch Of English painting, have certainly
rendered the grace and charm of woman

grace and charm are not everything. 1
consider that an ideal Of womanhood which
is founded almost exclusively on grace and
charm is very poor ideal
And not only is their ideal a very fiimsy
one, but the way in which they allowed it
to swallow up the individuality of their sit

Louisville's most prominent homeo-
pathic physicians, and after discoursilg
on all the topics Of interest of the day
settled down to tell him her ailments.
Among other things she said that she
was greatly annoyed with sinking
feeling. The phys clan prepared a little
bottle of pills and gave them to her.

should be taken The woman again
began to talk, and after many vain ct
forts to get her out, she started for the

turned and said: "Oh. doctor, what

How to Prevent Sunatr0ke.

An English physician has discovered
that sunburn is produced by penetrat-
ing light rays and not by heat at all.
The face of a victim Of sunburn is not
only swollen. but pitted. and at the
bottom Of each pit the microscope dis
closes freckle. The physician who
has made this interesting discovery
claims that sunstroke can be averted
by wearing a hat and clothes Of an Or
ange hue. No remedy is found to be so
satisfactory as the use Of pigments A

on her shoulders by the sun under

Of human.
Philip Perew. of this city, is the in
ventor of the latest novel mechanical
device. 1t is made of wood, steel and
brass, and viewed from rod or two
away it is almost impossible to dis
tinguish 1t from flesh and blood.
The first successful appearance Of
the dummy was made on the streets
of Tonawanda last Monday evening,
and since then it has walked up and
down the pavement nightly.
1t was about year ago that Mr.
Perew conceived the idea of inventing
a wooden man. He was possessed Of
ingenuity and necessary capital to
carry out his plans. A shop was built
expressly for the purpose and filled
with material to be used in the con-
struction OF his wooden wonder. After
securing the services of NJ. S. Loucks,
master mechanic and experienced en-
gineer, the work was Immediately be-
gun. Perew drew the plans and
Loucks did the rest. In about six weeks
man was finished and ready to ap-
pear before the public. 1t appeared.
but was a failure. The joints were
stiff and the legs swung backward and
forward as though they were working
on hinge joint instead Of a ball and
socket. Everybody laughed and wink,
ed at his neighbor, saying:
What did tell you?"
But Perew was not discouraged. He
took the dummy back Ito the shop
and smashed 1t to pieces. Then he
began the wc1n all over. His efforts

hat?" Why, the hat with the demol-
ished crown, which had been kicked up

the lobby and finally out into the
water. And that is how Stanley Thorpe

4 Monumental Performance Of Forget

ting-SpOiled the Opera for Him.
The most monumental performance
of the Man Know in the forgetting OF
faces and names was an exhibition he
made of himself at the Maliban theater
in Venice few years ago, says Har-
per's Magazine. He thought he would
like to hear an Italian opera on an
Italian stage and he purchased, at the
little ticket Office in the square OF st.
Mark, places for himself and his wife,
costing 32 cents each; and admission
cards for their gondOliers, at the price
of a quarter Of dollar for the two.
The opera house was crowded and 1t
was late when they sailed up to the
door. They had not been able to secure
the aisle seats they wanted; and, in no
very amiable frame of mind, they were
forced to push their way to the center
of one of the front rows Of stalls. After
they were settled the Man l Know dis
covered that on the other side OF MS
wife was one of the Stanley brothers,
who was then a resident Of the CONT
nent, and had much to say to him,
finally changing seats with his COM
panion for that purpose. She asked to
be introduced to Stanley, told Stanley
how we'll she knew and how much she
liked his sister, when the curtain rose
and all conversation ceased. In the
middle of the act the Man l Know
turned suddenly to his wife and whiS-
pered: my dear, that man is not stan
ley and have not the slightest notion
who he ISL During the next interrnis-
sion Stanley said rather savagefy to
the Man l Know that they had mis-
taken his name, and he seemed 10 think
that there was no excuse forfhis for
getfulness. The Man Know'explained
as best he could that his eyesight was
failing; that he had to wear two pairs
Of glasses and that even thus armed
he could not see straight. But. OF
course, he recognizedf his friend now,
and with q dash of inspiration he called
him Mr.. Thorpe. Thorpe was reintro-
duced in due and proper form and the
lady helped, matters materially by in
tlorsing her husbands statement as to
his grow ',AG, blindness, making the Man
I Know feel as comfortable as possible

place, he following meekly with his
overcoat and umbrella and without so
much as another glance at Stanley
Thorpe. They sat down in some vacant
chairs at the extreme back of the audi
torium; she was too angry to speak
and he too mortified to think, but try
ing to make out in his humiliation and
confusion who Thorpe-Stanley could
really be. At the close of the perform
ance he remembered that he had left
his hat under Stanley-Thorpe's seat
and he waited until Thorpe-Stanley
disappeared before he found courage
to go for it. And it was not there. He
