IL Is quito as important II give atten-
tion to the teeth, the hands and the feet as
to the figure. But thousands of mothers
worry their children to death with Shout
der braces and standing up straight and
gymnastics and calisthenics, with never q
thought OF the manicure or n careful study
Of the complicated anatomy of the feet.
The teeth of children are much better
attended To than they were years ago,
which Is point gained, but there are
scores OF other matters scarcely less impor-
taut about which the youngsters never re-
ceive even n caution. The baby Is allowed
to suck its thumb until it's upper front
teeth are entirely out of shape and it's
mouth is little more than a deformity.
The thumb is shapeless lump, and the
mischief that is begun in infancy can never
be remedied, try as ono may.
Children should be taught to walk, not
merely to take steps, not alone to get over
the ground In any way they choose. but
with accuracy, grace and dignity. A
professor of department once said that of
all things that the women of his acquaint-
ance did badly the very worst was walk
Ing. Not woman in 1000 had proper
carriage or understood what walking
meant, save that it was the action of put
ting one foot before the other. Certain
muscles are brought into play in proper
pedestrianism. 1t is important to the
child to know what these are, why they
are used and the best means of utilizing
the force that is necessary for this exercise.
Walking, when one understands it thor
oughly, is great pleasure. To shamkle
along any way regardless of appearances is
an indication of faulty training and dis
credit to those who had charge of the child
during its early years.-New York Ledger.

sleeping Children.

The fact that in Algeria there are very
few maladies OF the nose, ears and throat
has caused Dr. Madeuf, an eminent French
physician, TO inquire into its cause, and he
has found 1t due In u largo measure to a
practice of Arab mothers, who train their
children to sleep on n hard bed, with one or
two coverlets for bed clothing, and to lie
on their sides, not on their backs. 1t can
easily DO shown that the right side is pref
cradle to the left for person to sleep on.
For one thing, the action of the heart OF
liver is not impeded in any way by the
pressure of the body when one lies on the
right side. DR.. Madeuf seems to think
that sleeping on the back is the worst OF
all. If there is any irritation of the mrl-
cous membrane of the nose, it is apt to OK
tend to the ears and throat when one sleeps
in this position. Moreover, one is very
prone to breathe by the mouth, which is
neither healthy nor seemly habit. The
doctor, therefore, counsels all mothers to
accustom their children to hard beds and
to sleep on their sides-above all, on their
right sides. The habit formed in infancy
will be useful to them in their way through
life and probably save them from more
than one illness. Public Opinion.

FOUL MURDER OF A MINISTER.
tev. DIR. Miller, ofBioomington, Killed by

Decatur, Ills, Nov. 25.-Rev. James

Methodist church here, for many years
pastor of the First Methodist church
there, was murdered before daylight
here yesterday morning His body was
found in an alley by w. Il. Roberts, a
well-known business man at $3.50. A
bullet hole in the forehead told how
he had been killed. Near by was a
3S-calibre revolver, at his feet was an
empty wallet. His trousers pockets
were turned inside out. This told the
story of murder for robbery. 1t was
some little time before the identity of
Miller could be established, even though
he was well-known to all who saw
him, because of the blood on his face
and the condition of his clothing.
1t was known that Mr.. Miller carried
a handsome gold watch and chain;
these were also missed. The position
of the body showed that Mr.. Miller had
been met on Edward street near the
alley, shot in the forehead by one shot
from a revolver, dragged into the alley.
