Longer Life In the Country.

The loss Of pure air, sunshine and
other "free" goods and its effect on the
physique Of city dwellers is not ade-
Quately compensated by hygienic re-
forms of town life itself, while the in
creased number and complexity Of SEN
sations impose q greater strain upon the
nervous system. The nervous degenera-
ton which thus accrues may perhaps be
checked in time by further hygienic i'm
provement of the town and by gradual
readjustment between the nervous sys-
tenn and its changed environment But
meantime grave physical injuries arise
directly from those very economic
changes which have raised the economic
condition of the great mass of the work
ers and have probably reduced the guam
tity of purely economic poverty. When
we reflect that the physical injuries OF
town life, attested by rates Of mortality
and impaired muscular activity, fall
most heavily upon the poor, we shall
see grave reason to doubt whether the
modern conditions of industrial and So
cial life are generally favorable to the
physical vitality of the low paid worker
or the "residuum," that is to say,
whether he gets any net vital advantage
out of the higher rate of real wages
which he obtains when he is working
The conclusion applied by Mr.. Charles
Booth to the whole body Of workers
that "in one way or another effective
working life is ten years longer in the
country than in the town" has an impor
tant significance when we remember
that each decennial census shows {
growing proportion of workers subjec
to the conditions of town life. Con

Onions.

Onions are almost the best nervine
known, says The Housekeeper. No
medicine is so useful in cases Of nerv-
Gus prostration, and there is nothing
else that will so quickly relieve and
tone a wornout system. Onions are use
full in all cases of coughs, colds and in
fiuenza, in consumption, insomnia, hy-
drophobia, scurvy, gravel and kindred
liver complaints. Eaten every other day
they soon have clearing and whiten-
ing effect on the complexion.

To Restore Faded Flowers.

Flowers that have been packed and
are fading from exhaustion may be re-
stored to freshness if the stalks are
plunged about an inch deep into scald-
ing water. By the time the water be-
comes cold the flowers will have reviv-
ed Cut off the ends of the stalks which
have been softened by the hot water and
put the flowers in vases with plenty OF
cold water. Cut flowers are likely to
keep longer if you cut off with a sharp
penknife a little piece of stalk every
day. Cut in slanting direction. The
strong odor of the water in which wall
flowers have remained may be remedied
by adding little charcoal or disinfect-
ing fluid. .-Philadelphia Telegraph.

Joy.

Joy is the handspring in the whole
round of everlasting nature; joy moves
the wheels of the great timepiece of the
world; she it is that loosens flowers
from their buds, suns from their firma-
ments, rolling spheres in distant space
seen not by the glass of the astronomer.

be waged according TO the rules and customs Of
civilized natiOns-to wit. that flags Of truce
should be respected, prisoners be humancly treat

Of nOn-combatants be safeguardcd. There was
no charge nor intimaton that these rules had
been violated. The resolution was framed with
scrupulous courtcsy-eyerything that might even
