Very young children are not sensitive
to pain to any great extent. A doctor
calculates that sensibility is seldom
clearly shown in less than four or five
weeks after birth, and before that time

Western Forest Fires.

1t is not generally known. says John
Muir in the August Atlantic, that not
withstanding the immense quantities of
timber cut every year for foreign and
home markets and mines, from five to
ten times as much is destroyed as is used,
chiefly by running forest fires that only
the federal governments can stop. Travel
ers through the West in summer are not
likely to forget the fire-work displayed
along the various railway tracks. Tho
reau, when contemplating the destruction
of the forests on the east side of the con-
tinent, said that soon the country would
be so bald that every man would have to
grow whiskers to hide its nakedness, but
he thanked God that at least the sky was
safe. Had he gone West he would have
found out that the sky was not safe; for
all through the summer months, over
most of the mountain regions, the smoke
of mill and forest fires is so thick and
black that no sunbeam can pierce it. The
whole sky, with clouds, sun, moon, and
stars, is simply blotted out. There is no
real sky and no scenery. Not noun
tain is left in the landscape. AT least
none is in sight from the lowlands, and
they all might as well be on the moon, as
far as scenery is concerned.

An Arctic Christmas.

The crew of an arctic explorer had
great pleasure, one Christmas amid the
ice and snow, in teaching the little Es-
kimo children how to observe an Amer
lean Christmas. The queer little tots
had never heard of Christmas tree,
and Santa Claus was an unknown per-
sonage. The sailors were desperately
homesick, until one Of them. with little
ones Of his own, happened to think of a
Christmas tree for the little, chubby Es-
KINDS, with their round heads and soft,
dark eyes.
A real, live, green tree was, of course,
out Of the question in that icy region,
so the men gathered up the bones Of
slaughtered walruses, bears, whales and
other creatures and tied them together
so that they branched out in every direc-
tion.
When it came to candy, they could
not get that, either; but instead they
made balls Of whale blubber, or fat, of
which the little fur wrapped Eskimo is
extremely fond, and these queer substi.
tutes for caramels were tied Oh the
"tree" with colored cord. Bright beads,
shining buttons, some brass headed
taoks and a few other such remarkable
"presents" were also tied on, and then
bits Of lighted candles were stuck all
about, giving quite festive air to the
queerest Christmas tree that was prob
ably ever seen. But the Eskimo children
enjoyed it to a wonderful degree, and
the homesick sailors grew bright and
cheerful in giving then such a novel
pleasure. New Yor0 ribune.

1t was only the other night, in the
grammar school on Ringold street, that
an aged colored woman, weary and
worn with her years of ceaseless labor,
comprehended for the first time in her
life that the figure meant four single
units combined. So happy was she at
the dawning light Of knowledge, rudi-
mentary though it was, that when she
saw in store on the following day the
sign, "Tacks, cents; hammers

ton to count out two little piles of four
pennies each from her scanty supply and

Candy-Eating.

In this day, when the laws Of health
are understood, as they were not fifty
years ago, people inveigh in voice and
print against he evils of candy-eating;
and children, hearing the protest, feel
their little hearts sink within them. 1t
is natural for babies to love sugar-plums,
and it is abuse, not the use of sweets
that is reprehensibe. One man with
superb digestion and normal appetite
saws he has always made it his custom
to eat several pieces of candy after his
MONDAY meal, and that he never felt any
evil effects from the practice. little
sweet following a meal will not harm
healthy child, but the mother must judge
as to quality and quantity. She may
keep on hand box of simple pepper
minis or plain chocolates, and after din
ner give to the little one as many as she
deems prudent. The stomach often
Graves, and usually digests readily, sweets
after hearty meal. The pernicious
habit of allowing children to purchase
candy galore and eat it ad libitum is
what ruins the stomachs, perverts
the appetite, and destroys teeth. Until
the child is old enough to discriminate
and exercise selfcontrol, the mother
must choose for him. But in exercising
this right she must try not to carry it to
an unreasonable extent, and deny her
little one that which used judciously will
not harm him, and which forms one Of
the chief treats of childhood. The words
"candy" and "ice.cream" convey to the
childish mind depths of bliss, such as
grown woman can scarcely conceive OF.
Let not US, who have passed that happy
stage when the sight of a bonbon caused
thrill OF delight, deny too vigorously to
our little ones the simple sweets of life.

One Of the most eminent of French
physicians, the late Dujardin- Beaumetz,
urged for years befo1 his death that
persons of light or feeble digestion
should not eat raw oysters, because they
contain a chemical which excites fer
mentation as soon as it comes in contact
with the gastric juice Being an easy
carrier of germs, too, the oyster COM
municates very readily any pathogenic
microbe which it may contain to the in
testinal canal, and trouble begins at
once. Recent investigations corroborate
the opinion of the French scientist and
may lead to the Punishment of the hith.

What to Eat These Hot Days.

During the hot months" writes Mrs.
S. T. Rorer in the Ladies Home Journal,
1.-THE diet should consist largely of dainty,
cold, lean meat, green, succulent vege-
tables and fruits. 1t is popular fallacy
that the free use of sub-acd fruits during
hot weather causes disturbances of the
bowels. No diet is more healthful than
ripe fruit provided it is properly masti-
Gated and swallowed before or after
bread and butter, but never with it.
"The lighter wheat preparation, such
as farina, wheatlet and glutena, should
be substituted for the heat.giving oat-
meal for breakfast. Cook enough one
morning to last two, as they are just as
palatabe cold as they are hot. While
fried food may seem little out OF place
in the warm weather there are certain
light dishes that may be utilized for
breakfast. Cornmeal or hcminy GRO
quettes, or even rice croquettes may be
made the day before and simply fried at
serving time. Squash and cucumbers
may be dipped and fried. In the chahng-
dish one may have Clipped beef, creamed
Or lricasseed barbecued beef, cold mutton
warmed in little tomato sauce, and
dishes of eggs, such as omelets, scram-
bled eggs, creamed eggs or poached eggs.
Fruit should be served in fiat dish,
with, if the weather is hot, little
chopped ice sprinkled over it. Fruit that
is very acid should not be served too
cold. Powdered sugar and cream should
accompany the fruit course. In the place
OF chops or steaks we may have egg
plant, boiled or fried tomatoes, dainty
omelet with peas, omelet with aspara-
gus tips, or with parsley, following the
fruit. Corn oysters and corn fritters
may also take the place of meat. Coffee,
tea, chocolate and milk are, Of course, in
summer, as in winter, the breakfast
beverages"

A surprising experiment demonstrate
ing the lasting qualities of snake poison
was recently made by Professor Maison-
neuve, which showed that dead snake
is almost as dangerous as live one.
The professor took an unusually large
specimen of the common viper of south
ern France, which for more than 30
years had been exhibited in the zoolog-
ical museum at Anglers. France, pre-
served in alcohol. The first experiment
with one Of the poisonous fangs of this
snake seemed to show that the 20 years
contact with the alcohol had robbed the
poison of its virulence, for a sparrow
wounded with one of its teeth did not
develop any symptoms of being poisoned.
The cause of the nonaction of the poison
at first was speedily found, however, in
the thickening of the poison at the en-
trance of the canal into the tooth, which
prevented the poison from flowing.
When Professor Maisonneuve extracted
some of the poisonous substance with a
fine needle and injected minimal por-
ton of it into the sparrow, the latter
showed all the symptoms OF poisoning
inside of half an hour, which gradually
increased until it died in commissions in
az hours after the injection of the poi
son. AS it was heretofore believed that
snake poison loses its dangerous and
virulent qualities with the death Of the
reptile, great care in handling dead
snakes will be matter of common sense
precaution.

A Few Rules For Getting On.

Be honest. Dishonesty seldom makes
one rich and when it does, riches are
curse. There is no such thing as dishou-
est success.
Work. The world is not going to pay
you for nothing. Ninety per cent of
what men call talent is only a genius for
hard work.
Be independent. Donot lean on others
to do your thinking or to conquer diff
culties.
Enter into that business or trade that
you like best, and for which nature
seems to have fitted you, provided it is
honorable.
Be conscientious in the discharge of
every duty. Do your work thoroughly.
No one can rise who sights his work
Don't try to begin at the top. Begin
at the bottom and you will have a
chance to rise, and will be surer of reach
ing the top some time.
Trust in hard work. lnscribe on your
banner, Luck is a fool, pluck is hero"
Be punctual. Keep your appointment.
Be there a minute before time if you have
to lose your dinner to do it.
Be polite. Every bow, every smile will
be money in your pocket.
Spend less than you earn. Do not run
in debt. Watch the little leaks and you
can live on your salary.
Be generous. Meanness makes en-
emies and breeds distr ust.
Make all the money you can, honestly
do all the good you can with it while
you live; be your own EXECUTOR Phil

The Outgoing President.

No incident OF the Inauguration exer.
cises is so significant or dramatic as this
abrupt departure into private life of the
ex. President. There is no farewell speech
for him to make, no post-mortem address
such as the one the Vice President
delivers. The ex-President's works
must speak for him, and he departs in
silence and unattended.

President walked out to the reviewing.

grounds. and the spectators on the
grand stand opposite rose to cheer him,
Mr.. Cleveland stepped into his carriage
at a side door, and leaving the house he
had occupied for eight of the best years
of his life, drove away with no more
important business before him than
few days fishing. The blare of the
bands and the cheers for his successor in
office followed him, but the faces of the
people were turned away; they were
greeting the new and rising sun; and
freed from the terrible responsibilities of
Office, from abuse and criticism. and from
the glare that falls even more impudently
upon the President Of republic than
upon throne, Mr.. Cleveland was
driven, free man once again, to the
Seventh Street wharf, where tender

Two of his friends hurried him on board,
the ropes were cast off, the captain
jingled his bell into the depths of the
engne-room, and the ex-President gIided
peacefully down the Potomac, sorting
out his rods and lines on the deck, and
intent only upon the holiday before him.

The Minds Eve.

1t will probably be news to most peo-
pie to hear that rudimentary traces of
third eye exist among all vertebrates,
including man. In the human race this
third eye forms part of the pineal gland
"a small mass about the size of a pea
in almost the very center of the brain.
Possibly, therefore, there was more &C.
tual truth in the we'll known expression,
"the minds eye," than it's originator
ever dreamed of.
