And golden were her tresses.
Her milk white teeth, when they showed

Wore cherry lips for dresses.
A queen she was, whose royal rule
Extended DER country school.
Before her trembled Thomas Gray,
The biggest Of her scholars.
And Thomas hadn't sense they say,
Where other folks had dollars
But what "they say sometimes is not
A picture sstalen on the spot"
He had been whispering in school,
And she had seen him do 1t,
Which, being quite against the rule
She thought she'd make him rue it,
Some queens are cruel. This one was
When any subject broke her laws.
"Why did you whisper, Thomas Graya
You knew 1t was forbidden"
And Thomas knew not what to say
When thus he had been chidden.

The dull face lighted with smile.

NOSE-BLEED,

Bleeding from the nose is caused by
the congestion of the lining membrane
of the nose.
This congestion may be the result of
catarrh, or more properly, of the dis
eased condition of the nasal mem
branes which is due to catarrh or it
may accompany congestion of some
organ of the body, as the liver. 1t
may also result from heart disease, or
even from dyspepsia.
Nose-bleed in children is commonly
supposed to indicate nothing more
than that the child tires easily, or is
overactive. Yet even these terms ex-
press more than is obvious upon a
casual reading of the words.
If child tires easily, or in other
words, if the least overexertion at
play or at study results in more or
less severe attack of nose-bleed, the
child must be in q weakened state (;
while, on the other hand, if he is &C.
customed to allow his play or his
studies so to absorb his interest as to
make him forget his fatigue. he is
placing an injudicious strain upon his
constitution.
In either case he will be benefited
by a curtailment of work, and an in
crease in the amount of time allotted
for rest, until his body is more fully
developed. No child's mind can be
developed faster than the body except
at the expense of health.
Nose-bleed occurring in middle life
and old age is a more serious thing, as
it indicates a graver condition of af-
fairs. 1t is usually coincident with
disease of the liver, heart or kidneys.
Its cure is, of course, dependent upon
the restoration of the organs to nor
NAL condition. In elderly persons the
disorder sometimes appears to result
from weakness, which, in turn, it ag-
gravates.
1t is q common saying that, in full
blooded persons, an occasional nose.
bleed Is beneficial; and this may in a
certain sense be true, inasmuch as the
nasal membranes are thus relieved OF
congestion. But it is safe to say that
bleeding from the nose is never any
thing but sign of weakness.
The treatment of an attack OF nose
bleed consists in absolute rest and cool
applications to the head. The ex-
tremities should be warm. The head
should not be held down over basin,
as this favors the flow of blood. One
of the simplest and most effectual
methods of stoppingan ordinary attack
is for the person to stand erect, with
the head in the usual upright position,
and the hands extended at length
directly over the head.
Obstinate cases require prompt medi.
cal assistance. Companion.

CURIOSlTIES OF VISION.

In order to have distinct vision and
the power for estimating the distance
of one object from another under wa
ter, the magnifying lens of the eye OF
aquatic animals must necessarily be
much more convex than inland ami
mails.
A fish sees in the air just as we do
| in opening our eyes under water
indistinctly. Submarine explorers are
provided with glasses which meet the
emergency.
Seals, frogs, terrapin, crocodiles, and
water birds, that seek prey alternately
in air and water, possess marvellous
mechanical provision for varying the
optic axis in passing from one medium
to another. Human eyes, having no
such adjustable apparatus, meet an
emergency by lens outside, as in
wearing glasses.
No individual organ has been more
profoundly studied, nor is any depart.
ment of science better understood than
optics, yet the sense of vision is not in
the eye, but far back in the brain.
The eye is simply receiving instru-
ment, like IL spyglass, directed by the
will, through which the conscious soul
contemplates what is beyond. Through
those organs the mind holds intercourse
with the world. Yet with such facts
for guidance, based on positive demon
strations, philosophers have not been
able to explain how the mind operates
on the optic mechanism to see.
Insects are abundantly provided with
motionless eyes, but they see without
brains. They have ganglionic nervous
centres, and so have we but vision has
its location in certain white tubercles.
Spiders, flies, bugs, even mosquitoes,
with the incest kind of distinct vision,
both microscopic and telescope, have
nothing like brain.

FAITHFUL TO HIS CAPTAIN.-That
was loyal if not very gentle answer
once made by a private soldier to
Frederick the Great of Prussia, as the
story is told in Harper's Round Table
During a campaign in Silesia the
king made it his habit to stroll through
his camp in disguise at night, to come
into closer relations with his soldiers
One night he was stopped by sentry,
but giving the proper password, was
permitted to proceed. Instead of do
ing so, however, he endeavored to
tempt the sentry into accepting cl'
gar, saying that smoke would solace
his long watch.
"It is against the rules" said the
soldier. .
"But you have my permission" said
Frederick.
"Your permission p' cried the SOL
dier. "And who are you?"
II am the king"
"The king be hanged !" said the in
corruptible sentry. "What would my
captain say ?"

DEATH INFLICTED BY BOILING
England has four instances of the
death penalty being legally carried out
by boiling, to her discredit. The first
happened in 1882, when man was
"sodden in ca.dron in Smithfield. "
In 1541 a special retrospective act OF
parliament was passed to deal with
the case of John Roose, a cook who
had poisoned some food in the kitchen
of the Bishop of Rochester, and he
suffered in a similar way. In the
same year q maid servant was hoiled
to death at Kings Lynn for poisoning
her mistress. In 1542 another
maid servant named Margaret Davy
suffered the same fate for secret poi
soning in three households in which
she had lived. The horrible nature
of the punishment is partly explained
by the fact that it was only employed
against pojsoners, and to check an al
most unknown form of crime import

FITS In CHILDREN.
How to Relieve the Sufferer Quickly
| Cause of the Trouble.

How to Relieve the Sufferer Quickly
Cause of the Trouble.
A convulsioh, or spasm, is seldom
serious. In children there are many
causes of convulsions, and the serious
ness of any given case depends wholly
on the cause, not on the convulsion or
the spasm itself.
Children often have convulsions from
an overloaded stomach or from sud-
den chill, just after eating, which stops
the digestion. An emetic is what is
needed in such a case. A half tea
spoonful of salt dissolved in one-third
of cup of warm water, to which a
half teaspoonful of ground mustard
has been added, and the whole given
at a dose, makes the quickest, safest
and best emetic in such case or in a
case of poisoning.
The so called "worm fits" often come
from undigested food in the stomach
and can also be relieved by such an
emetic. Treatment for a convulsion
of this sort while it is in progress is
not of much use and often does harm.
1t is, as rule, better to manage a
spasm in child the same as an epilep-
tic fit in an adult.
In epilepsy remove the patient if
necessary to some place where there is
no special danger of his getting hurt,
loosen the clothing on the neck and
chest and then let him alone. Keep
every one out of the way and give him
plenty of breathing room, and on no
account try to hold him still or stop the
convulsion. You cannot do it if you
try. 1t is sometimes we'll to put a
large flat cork or q thickly folded cloth
between the teeth to keep the tongue
from being bitten. After the convul-
sion is over the patient will often 60 to
sleep. Let him sleep until he wakens
of his own accord. Hysterical convul-
sions do not require any notice taken
of them at all and will pass over soon
er if unnoticed. If one is in doubt
whether a convulsion is hysteria or
epilepsy, manage it as for epilepsy.
Convulsions in children are liable to
come on at the beginning of brain
fever (cerebro spinal meningitis) and
lung fever.

How TO TREAT NEURALGIA.-Neu-
ralgic people are always sensitive te
changes of temperature and sudden
chills, and to avoid the risk of these
they should wear woolen undercloth'
ing.
Very often neuralgia is complained
of when, in reality, the half forgotten
stump of an old tooth is at the root Of
the matter. If there is any doubt
about it, visit to good dentist
would decide the question once for all
In cases of acute neuralgia relic
may be afforded by rubbing together
equal parts of chloral and powdered
camphor and painting the painful spo'
with it.
Many people cannot take quinine
but those who can will find it the best
remedy of all.
A local application, said to be very
effective also, is equal parts of benzolr
and peppermint oil. 1t may be rub
bed on the affected part, or a clotf
wrung out of hot water may be
sprinkled with it.

FLOORED COMPLETELY.

In a certain town, not a hundred
miles from London, lived Mrs. Mas
terhim, who "wore the breeks," as the
saying goes.
One Bank holiday she was deter
mined to show her husband who was
master, and refused to let him have
his Sunday clothes. Marvellous to re-
late, her henpecked husband this time
put his back up, and, arming himsel
with hatchet, threatened to smash ir
the door of the cupboard if she didn'
hand him out his "togs."
The woman raised a shout of "mur
DER" and walked out of the house
saying, "I'm off to fetch the police an
have you taken up, you horrid scamp!

few moments later, went to his tele
phone (Which was then only just begin

Meanwhile the woman found hel

excitedly began to report with tht

When she was interrupted by th'
officer on duty, who said:
"And you won't let your husband
have his Sunday clothes; )" and HI
went on to relate the whole proceed
ings in detail, which made such al
impression on the awe-struck woman
that she walked out of the Office
saying:
"I'll give in; these police fellows
know everything. I'll be jiggered i
I have anything to do with then
again."
Whereupon the police sergeant tele
phoned to the neighbor to inform the
husband that the wife had come around
to better sentiments.
When she returned home her hus
band met her with the words:
swell, so you have been telling the
sergeant you would give in this time
eh ?"
That finished her completely.
Later on in the day the couple were
seen arm in arm on the promenade ir
