He Put His Foot In It.

A woman's club that invested in a
clubhouse not long since was much
against it's will obliged to employ men
laborers. The architect was woman,
but it was found impossible to procure
women carpenters masons and plaster
ers. One day shortly before the compile
ton Of the structure workman who
was employed upon the roof made a
misstep and thrust his foot through the
beautiful but not yet dried ceiling Of
the auditorium. Just at this time, too,
q number Of club members CHANGED to
be in the building, and their emotions
atthe sight Of the pedal extremity pend
emit from the ceiling may be better i'm.
agined than described. The man was
eventually rescued and the hole nended,
but the Patch still shows upon the cell

THE SOUTHERN CROSS.

Changing Position In the Heavens of This
Celebrated Constellation.
If Job were to rise from the dead and
look upon the heavcks, says Professor
Z. j. j. See in The Atlantic, he would
see the consultations related to one an
other as of old, but he would find that
the pole had shifted it's position among
the stars, and if an immortal could wit
ness the grand phenomenon which the
procession Of the equinoxes produces in
about $4,000 years he would find the
heavens SO altered that the former as
pect could be recognized only by an un-
derstanding Of the changes which had
interviewed.
AS Humboldt justly remarks, the
beautiful and celebrated constellation
Of the Southern Cross, never seen by
the present inhabitants of Europe and
visible in the United States only on our
southern coast, formerly shone on the
shores of the Baltic, and can again be
seen in that latitude in about IS, 900
years. The cross will then be visible on
the shores Of Hudson bay, but at pres
ent it is going rapidly southwark, and
in few thousand years will be invisi-
BILE even at the extreme point of Florida.
In like manner the brilliant star Ca
nopus in the constellation Argo, situat
ed some 81 degrees south of Sirius, is
now visible in the southern portion of
the United States. In about 10, 900 years
it will cease to rise even in Central
America. From the same cause, if Ptol-
envy wcac 10 again look L G.. the hcav-
ems at Alexandria, he woal;l be unable
to recognize Alpha and Beta Ccutauri,
which he easily saw and caralog.ed in
the time of Hadrian. At present these
magnificent stars are just visible at tho
pyramids, near Cairo, and in few
more thousand years they can be seen
by jewellers on the Nile only in upper
Egypt.

BREATHE PURE AIR.
Tho Necessity For Filling the Lungs 1t
Each Inhalation.

Esch lnhalation.
Breathe puse air always In the lungs
q most Important physiological process
occurs. It is from here that the blood
laden with oxygen is sent to all parts of
the body, giving off aiong it's course it's
Oxygen and taking up carbonic acid gas,
WIZ WIN 1t brings at last to the lungs,
wien it is cast out in expiration. More
oxygen is taken in by inspiration and
the same process is repeated.
So let your breathing he full and deep,
going to the very bottom of the lungs
i'll c-t.er that all of the blood in them
MAJ Iecei:o it's full amount of oxygen
before again starting upon it's tour of
distribution through the body. Can one
use any more forcible argument in favor
Of loose clothing than this? It is abso-
lutely impossible to secure plenty Of
oxygen if the clothing is worn at all
tight, and oxygen is food which the
body must have always in abundance to
keep we'll.
The air leaving the lungs is laden with
that deadly poison carbonic acid gas
which if given off in close room when
no provision is made for it's escape and
the entrance of pure air soon renders
the air utterly unfit to breathe. Perhaps
some night you will find yourself un-
able to sleep and tumble restlessly about
i'll bed When this occurs, go to an open
window and inhale the fresh air, breath
ing slowly and deeply. A few minutes
OF this and you can return to bed and
probably will soon be sleeping quietly.
What has happened? By it's restlessness
the body was asserting its need of more
oxygen. Now you have given it what
it SO emphatically asked for, and it is
quiet. We get as much uneasiness and
disturbance from the want of this food
as when>we do not eat enough. only the
symptoms are not so we'll understood
nor recognized SO quickly Always keep
your mouth closed and breathe through
your nose. Then the air is warmed,
slightly moistened and largely freed
from particles of dust, so that when it
enters the lungs it does not irritate
them.
A condition often met with by ply
sicians is an@mia. In this trouble the
patient is pale, lifeless looking, tired
and generally used up, often without
being able to tell distinctly how she
does feel. Sometimes these patients say
that they have not enough blood. It is
really only ali element of the blood
which is wanting, but that is a very
important one-namely, the red blood
corpuscle.
When you know that it is only those
corpuscles which have the power to take
up and carry oxygen, you see at once
how important it is that the blood
should not be lacking in them. Good,
wholesome food, plenty of it and well
digested will give you the corpuscles.
Furnish them with the oxygen and the
body will have an important element
toward health. What to Eat.

a JOKE ON THE TEAMSTER,
He Roughly Ordered General Sherman to
Brush His Mules.

He Roughly Ordered General Sherman to
Brush His Mules.
A good story is told of one Of General
6herman's Missouri transfers. He had
just joined the service, a raw recruit,
and was assigned the task of driving q
six mule team. When the army halted
1or the first night, he was YEARLY un-
Harvesting his team.
"Hello there, said the wag Of the
company in passing. "What do you
mean By taking care of those mules
yourseaf2 Why don't you have the
hostler do it?''
"Why, / thought every man had to
take care Of his own team" said the
bewildered teamster.
"Yoa bet he doesn't We've got q
hostler for that. There's his tent right
over there. He's lazy, contrary old
ours ard he may not want to do it, but
You swear at him and he'll move off at
double quick
The Missourian strobe over to the
tent indicated, which happened to be
General Sherman's headquarters.
"Here, you son Of gun" he reared
fercely, get out of here and thrush
those mules.
Needless to say, the teamster spent
the evening in the guardhouse.
A pious old Indiana farmer was as
signed to the duty of team;ng, probably
BY mistake. The roads were muddy,
and the rest of the transfers were lit

oaths 1t was against the old mans
principles to swear, and he held his
peace. albeit in impotent rage. At last

fused to advance step. The old man
