The following extract IS from Have lock Ellis book, Man and Woman :''
 Again, until quite recent times 1t has over and over again been emphat- ically stated by brain anatomists that the frontal region is relatively larger in men, the parietal in women. This conclusion is now beginning to be re- garded as the reverse of the truth, but we have to recognize that it was in- evitable It was firmly believed that the frontal region is the seat of all the highest and most abstract intellectual processes, and if on examining dozen or two brains an anatomist found him. self landed in the conclusion that the frontal region is relatively larger i'll women, the probability is that he would feel that he had reached con clusion that was absurd. It may in deed be said that it is only since it has become known that the frontal region of the brain is of greater relative eytent in the ape than it is iE man and has no special connection with the higher in- tellectual processes that 1t has beeome possible to recognize the fact that that region is relatively moro extensive 1n ~ssa..,o,, II

Many of the North American Indians were magnificent specimens of physical manhood. This was due, largely, to their active outdoor life. Nevertheless, they had the wisdom to know that an active life in the open air alone, would not keep a man healthy. They. had their medicine, men. who gathered herbs from field and forest and brewed decoctions to assist the natural processes of the various vital organs.
 Modern civilized men do rot as usual thing recognize the same necessity until 1t is too late. They ignore medicine until they are within the grasp of some serious or fatal disease. The time for man to be- gin taking medicine is when he begins to feel out of sorts. If a man is thoroughly we'll and healthy he does not feel that way. If he does feel that way he may be pretty sure that he is half sick. When he is half sick it does not take long before he is whole-sick.n Dr. Pierce's Golden Med- ical Discovery is the best medicine for man when he is sick or getting sick. 1t puts him all right all round. It puts his stomach right to begin with, and that IS the most important point. 1t puts his liver right, and that is the second most import ant point. It purifes his blood and fills 1t with the 1ife-giving elements of the food he eats, and that is the third important point It drives out all disease germs and impurities of every discription. It makes the appetite keen and hearty. It IS the greatest blood-tnaker and fiesh-builder. It cures o8 per cent. of all cases of consump- tion, weak lungs, splitting of blood, obsti- nate coughs and kindred ailments. Thou sands wto were given up to die have testi- fled to their recovery under this marvellous medicine. An honest dealer will not urge a substitute for the sake of little extra profit. He gives you what you ask tor.

THE CRATER OF RAINIER.
Experiences of Night on the Summit of
 the Weird Mountain.

Throwing off the life line, which had become almost an intolerable burden, T. scaled the pile of bare rocks and gained the rim of the orater. The great bowl within was deeply filled with snow, but the black circle forming it's rim could be distinctly traced. Descending the in- ner slope for about 100 feet, I found place where steam was issuing from a ereyice ill the rocks and warmed my benumbed fingers. Soon my companions joined ne, and we took refuge in one of the many caverns that the heat of the rocks and Of the escaping steam had melted i'll tho lower portion of the snow and ice partially filling the crater. In these weird caverns one may descend Yar beyond the light of day. The white vapors drifting silently through the dimly lighted passages assume grotesque shapes and suggest to the imaginative visitor that spirits of the time when Pluto's reign was supreme there make their homes
 By melting snow in our tin cups over the cracks from which steam was issu- ing we soon had water enough with which to prepare tea. In the absence of sugar and cream q little alcohol from the supply brought for fuel WAS added to each cup and proved | welcome stimulant. Making ourselves as con- fortable as possible under the circum- stances, we passed the night in the cav ern of ice There were no lodges broad enough to lie down on. and we were forced to stand or crouch against the hot rocks all night The fcor of our cavern sloped steeply and led down to an ugly opening of unknown depth be- tween the descending roof of ice and the rocks To guard against accidents. the life line was stretched across the cavern and made fast to crags. This proved wise precaution, as we were able during the night to walk up and down with the rope in our hands and avoid the stiffness and discomfort that come from remaining long in one posi- tion. n.-Israel c.

MODERN CHICKEN cooPs.
sne Once Familiar Laths Have Given w..
 to Wire Netting.

A1atns Have Given Wo0
 to Wire Netting.
 Men whose memories 20 hack sav so years will remember that in thoss lays When man wanted to bniId . onicken coop he bought bundle or two CT iaths and built it. There are ,n;ohtv lew lath chicken coops built nowadays lsen the smallest chicken raiser. who Aeeps a lew in his back yard, makes his opop or runway of poultry netting. The Snlcken house, or shelter, is made of boards, often of two thicknesses and with tarred paper between, for better protection from the weather, and with openings at the bottom and under the projecting roof for ventilation.
 LaVhs were cheap; poultry netting is stlll cheaper. It is made of steel wire galvanized, in various widths and in various sizes of mesh. The netting most commonly used is six feet wide, with & two inch mesh. The chicken raiser sets up a frame and taeks the netting to it.
 Narrow nettings of smaller mesh ara used Tn various ways to keep in little chleks-sometimes foot wide small inesh netting to run around at the base or tho inclosure, the regular netting being set above it, thus increasing the total height of the netting. Sometimes the small mesh netting is run around inside Of the regular netting, thus mak- Ing tho lower part of the netting double. sometlmes it is used to make separate sfnnn inclosures within the large run way and perhaps to make number of small inclosures to keep separate broods Of chicks apart. The narrow, small mesh netting is made up to three and & half feet in width.
 There Is nowadays use for wire net ting Ill chicken houses. A netting with square mesh is laid on the floor of chicken houses to keep out rats and mice
 There are now many large establish ments i'll this country for the raising of ch1ekens for commercial purposes, for market and for breeding, and there are as many men as ever who raise chickens at home from the many who keep a few in the back yard, with Q simple chicken house and coop, to men who raise many chickens and maintain an elaborate plant for their breeding and keeping. But under whatever conditions they are raised, chickens are rarely seen nowadays in coops made of laths, such as were familiar 40 years ago--New York Sun.

You must consider your own pocketbook little. Tutter-Don't say word. A simple, l inexpensive little entertainment like this, with such worthy object in view, ought to be encouraged.
