YAwN AND LAUGH OFTEN.
Scientists Declare That Both Are
Highly Beneficial.

1t is not so very long ago since a for
eign scientist discoursed on the benefits
of yawning. This act, which is general
ly regarded as partalsing of the nature
of a tired condition Tor symptom of such
a condition) of the respiration and OF
the need for fresh air, is said to be OF
great service in clearing the Eusta-
chan tubes of the ears. These tubes
head from the back of the mouth to the
inner side of the eardrum, and a yawn-
ing is looked upon in this light as a
hygienic exercise which benefits the
structures in question.
Another scientist has no difficulty in
showing that when we laugh we in
crease the play Of tension in our lungs.
One result Of this increased tension is
to arrest the. blood-flow In the lungs
and to induce the taking of deep inspi-
rations. These latter are healthful
things, for many parts of our lungs are
not called into active use in ordinary
breathing. The apex, or top of the
lung, is notably a part which does not
actively participate in the movements
of breathing, and as this is the special
seat of consumption-attack, we may
reasonably hold that the law of disuse
explains the greater liability of this
portion of the organ to the onset of dis
ease. The free and active use of part.
strengthening and toning it as it were,
is an essential condition for health.
Hence laughter, by bringing into play
the whole of the lungs, or at least by
favoring an increase of lung work, is
to be reckoned an admirable exercise.
Besides this physical effect of laugh
ter, we have also to take into account
its mental side. There is certain
brain-stimulus to be noted, a psychic
result in addition to the physical effect,
and it is pretty certain the mental
phase of a good hearty laugh is, in its
way, as healthful as is its physical as
pect. Singing is also praised as an ex-
cellent lung exercise, and public speak
ing is as effective lung tonic as one
may wish for. The only drawback to
the work of the speaker is the foul con-
dition of the atmosphere in which he
has often to do his work.--Detroit Free
Press.

THE REAL BURGLAR.
He IL Not n TearsOme Individual, Ac-
cordinE TO This Writer.

cording to This Writer.
To a woman in the night time aud to
the average householding man bur-
glar is more or less of terror. If al
most any of us should think we heard
him prowling below-stairs, or in the
spare chamber, we should probably
rather drop our boots loudly on the
floor than go in search of him. That
dark lantern, and mask, and revolver,
or knife, and the desperate behind
them, do not invite to sociability. But
when one comes to know the burglar
well-the burglar under cover-the
burglar in prison-one wonders how
one could ever be afraid to meet him.
It may be that in the open he is the
terrible creature whom imagination
evokes. I have never been with him on
his midnight missions, but as / know
him, after he has been ''pinched," await
ing trial, he is ridiculously other than
fearsome. That bulrs-eye lantern,
which, on the stage and in story books,
he always has, in fact he never has. L
never heard of one being caught with a
dark-lantern or mask on him. Ifhe has
any Matchmaking thing about him it is
an inch and half candle and few still
burning matches. A mask? Not bit
of it. 1 have had to do with hundreds
of them, and never knew one to be
caught with knife on him, and, as
nearly as L can remember, no more
than three with pistols. Burglars!
knowing them as 1 do, should laugh
at one should l meet him at dead of
night at my silver drawer. Not but
what they have courage enough in
way, but it is the courage of the fox
who dares to prowl into the henhouse,
but fees. at the slightest sound. Two
L remember to have had pistols on them
while at work. Each was shot in a
hand, the pistol lying still in the pocket
the while. Each submitted to arrest as
a child to be led by the ear.
Most of the burglars are mere boys.
1t would be almost like finding over
again little Oliver Twist in your house
should you catch one some night. In
stead of shooting you would probably
be inclined to spank him. But almost
none of them have conscience or moral
sense, or if they have it is not easily
perceivable. They are ignorant of near
ly all that is worth knowing. They are
the children of the ignorant, the filthy,
the house-crowded, the degenerate; and
they are as lighthearted as schoolboys.
How have heard them laugh over some
humorous thing that happened whils
they were hurriedly stuffing the plum
der into their pockets! And that still
funnier circumstance, that they should
walk right into the arms of the two
"cops" who were waiting for them!-
