One Way of Getting Thin.

The glory OF having discovered o
way of getting Tain and of keeping
in good condition when one is de-
priyed OF a usual means of exercise
must rest with the wife OF an English
officer in India. As sometimes hap
pens after long illness and its sub
sequent confinement, this lady found
herself, when able to move about
again, almost twice her normal size.
She could not walk, nor was she
able, through nervousness, either TO
ride or to enter into outdoor sports.
One day she thought OF the skip
ping-rope of her childhood. After
few weeks, she began to gain in
health and to decrease 10 size.
She makes daily record of six
hundred skirs. As she exercises
several times day, her record re-
presents the sum total of her day 3
work. Fer custom has been widely
followed. Women accustomed to
outdoor exercise, and made wretched
by confinement indoors or to lin
tied area, use the skipping rope.
Prsctised with prudence, no other
form of exercise it is said lie equal
to its beneficial results, or accom-.
plishes greater wonders in reducing

''It's kind OF swearing that many

on the floor, throw the furniture
about, and make all the noise they
possibly can.

same kind of feeling exactly, only
they do not say those awful words,

II hope, dear children, that you
will not do any of this kind of
swearing either. 1t is better TO let
alone wooden swearing and all other
kinds of swearing"

Mrs. SalIie G. Hobson, OF Greens
boro, Ala, mother OF the hero OF the
Merrimac exploit, writes:
II fully appreciate and agree with
you in your enthusiastic tribute to
my boys heroism. In accomplish
ing his daring achievement I realize
he was guided and protected by our
kind heavenly Father. 1t is but
natural that my mother pride should
be pleased at the recognition OF my
boy by the nation and its rulers.
Such recognition is very happy, but
it has told MS nothing new Of his
grand worth. A nobler son no
mother ever had. He has been a
mighty tower of strength to me for
years. Never forgetting the many
demands of a large household, it has
always been his pleasure to share his
salary with US. In every way be
has been help and comfort. To
u, nearest and dearest to him, it
took no Santiago to proclaim him a
hero. He has been to us for SO long
the truest hero-a noble son and
idolized brother. The plaudits OF
the world are his, and while history
will record the daring deed of hero
ism the gentler, sweeter. nobler
beauty of his nature can be known
only to those Of whom he is afirst-

1.-The remark of General Fitzhugh
Lee that all men feel some fear on
entering blttle is eminently cor
rect said prominent Canadian
military man recently though
many military men do not like TO be
so free in thicr expression in this
particular. Once in battle how
ever, peculiar excitement takes
the place of fear. This excitement
is not what could be called bravery,
for the men while under its influence
are not always brave as that word
is generally understood. 1t is q
question as to whether you or your
foe shall exist, as to the survival OF
the ffttest. The sight OF one man
being shot down in the front rank
OF a company, battalion or regiment
has much more to do withlthe work
and action of the company, battalion
or regiment than the charge or COM
mands of the most gallant COM
manders. It is an awful sight to
| witness the FIRST man fall, but that
sight has more to do With the hap
penings or results of that engage
ment than everything else combined.
But few men can speak of any recent
experience in this respect, for the
reason that there has been no re-
cent experience, as battles have only
been fought on paper for the past
ten or more years. In 1885 / hap
pened to be in command OF a bat
TALON of Manitoba soldiery during
the Riel rebellion, which was brief
but fierce Indian war while it lasted.
On our arrival at Batoche we found
that Riel and his Indian followers
were strongly intrenched in a con-
vent building, which they had seized.
The officers Of our command held
consultation as to how and where we
would attack the convent to dislodge
the Indians. About this time one
of the men of the command who was
sitting on the grass pretty well in
the view of the command fell dead,
a rifle ball entering his forehead.
The brain oozing out OF that small
hole did more TO in1ame the COM
mand and to direct its terrible force
than anything that we could con-
ceive OF. 1t was a question of TAX
ing the convent or allowing the oc.
cupants to take our lives, and it was
soon settled, in favor of our lives
and against the Indians. The death
of that one man decided the contest"

The employment Of bath goes
back to antiquity and was INDUCED
10 to the point of excess by the
Greek and Romans. The Jewish
and oriental religions enjoin frequent
ablutions AS part of their creed, un-
consciously contributing TO the
health and well being of the devout.
Baths are almost as varied 10 nat
ure az fashions, even though they
all tend to one end--clcanliness.
The warm water bath stands pre-
eminent in the list, and there is but
one danger 10 its free use-remain-
ing in The water too long.
A good bath tor persons suffering
with debility is made by mixing
quart Ell cheap whiskey with a tea
cupful of rock salt. Dip q crash
towel in this mixture and go quickly
over the entire surface OF the body,
allowing the fluid to dry into the
skin.
An alcohol sweat bath is beneficial
when suffering from colds or exbaus-
ton caused by excessive mental or
physical labor. procure small al
cohol lamp, Gil and light it and place
it under an ordinary cane seat chair,
on which several thicknesses of
paper have been placed. Divest the
person OF all clothing. After seated
in the chair wrap one or two large
blankets around the person, chair
and all. Leave no opening for the
heat to escape, but let the blankets
reach we'll to the floor. Wiring
thick towel out in hot water and
place on the head, and over that
light wooden covering. After pre-
spring freely take plunge bath in
a tub Of clear water, without soap,
and rub the body thoroughly dry
with a crash towel. Retire directly.
Baths for children should be given
according TO age and constitution.
Some require baths, while others
find cold water agreeable. The
tepid bath is generally suitable and
taken In the morning. II they are
under 2 years OF age, it may be tax
en- after the first meal. A child
should never be given hot bath in
cold room, and thorough drying is
OF great mportance.-Ph Philadelphia

A BOYS QUERIES.
They Were Well Meant, but Ruined
the Teachers Proposition.


He had been silent for some time,
evidently turning over in his mind
the facts that had been brought to
his attention. Like the average
boy, he wasn't much on faith. He
liked to have things demonstrated
conclusively. But perhaps he went
little further than the average
boy in his hard headed way of look
ing at things. Anyhow, after awhile
his hand went up as an Indication
that he wanted to ask . question.
"What is it ~ asked the teacher.
"Did you say that warm air
rises y he inquired.
al did," she replied. aIf you
should get stepladder for instance,
you would find the air near the CELL
ing of this room much warmer than
that near the foor. 1t is that ten
dency to rise that is utilized in heat
ing house by furnace. If the
hot air didn't rise, the furnace
would be of no use.'
The boy relapsed into silence for
time, and then the hand went up
again.
Say he said when he. had got
the attention of the teacher, "is the
roof the only thing that keeps that
hot air from going higher?'
"Certainly," replied the teacher.
"Didn't you ever see hot air bal
loon?"
"Ye-es. | guess so."
.'Well, the ceiling doesn't stop
that, does it? 1t works all right in
the open air, doesn't it?'
aye es."
Ascend time the boy relapsed
into silence, and then the hand went
up for third time.
"Did you ever climb big noun
tain 7" he inquired.
Sim sorry TO say I never had the
opportunity" answered the teacher.
"Or go up in balloon I"
"No."
"Well, my father told me about q
man he knew once who climbed
mountain right in the summer time
and came back with frost bitten
nose. How did he get it?"
Then, while the teacher was en-
deavoring to recover from the shock
of this startlingly sudden interroga-
ton, the boy demanded to know
how high man could go in a bal
loon before he would be overcome
by the heat.-Chicago Post.

Subj ct, Elijah on Carmel. !
Kings Is 80 80. Read Chapters
II ard is. Golden Text, And
when all the people saw it, they fell
on their faces and they said, The
Lord, lie is The God the Lord, He
is the God" / Kings IS: SO.
In the third year of the famine
and drought in Samaria, the Lord
said to the Prophet Elijah, go,
show myself unto Ahab and will
send rain upon the earth"
Then the Prophet went to the
king and accused him of forsaking
the Lord and following Baal, and
commanded him to gather on Mount
Carmel, all Israel, and the 45O
prophets of Baal; and the 400
prophets of Ashcroft, who were
under the special protection of the
queen. And when they were assem-
bled, Elijah said to all the people,
"How long halt We between two
opinions If the Lord he God, fol-
low Him but if Baal, then follow
him." And the people answered
him not a word,
Then Elijah commanded that
Balls prophets should put bull
ok on an altar on wood with no fire
under, and he would do the same,
"and the God that answereth by
fire, let Him be Cod" And all the
people said, at is we'll spoken"
And Baal's prophets laid their
sacrifice on The altar and called from
morning until neon, so Baal, hear
US, " but there was no voice nor an
swer. Then they leaped on the al
tar, and when Elijah mocking them,
said, "Call louder, he may be away,
or asleep" They cried aloud and
cut themselves with knives till the
blood gushed out.
In the evening when there was no
answer from Bsal, Elijah command
Ell tue people, "Come near unto me-"
And be repaired the altar of the
Lord, and put wood and bullock
upon it, with great trench dug
around it, and commanded that four
barrels of water should be poured on
the wood. This was done three
times till the trench was full of
water. And Elijah prayed, aLord
God of Abraham, Isaac, and of Is
rael, let it be known this day that
Thou art God in Israel"
Then the fire of the Lord fell, and
consumed the burnt sacrifice, and
the wood, and the stones, and the
dust, and licked up the water that
vas in the trench. And when all
the people saw it, they fell on their
faces and said, "The Lord, He is the
God"
Then Elijah brought the proph-
cts Of Baal to the brook Kishon, and
slew them there. And he said TO
Abab, "There is sound of abund-
nnce of rain." And the Heaven
was black with clouds ard wind,
and there was great rain, and

Elijah ran before him to the entrance

Sick-poison is a poison which
makes you sick. 1t comes from The
stomach. The stomach makes it
out OF undigested food.
The blood gets it and taints the
whole body with it. That's the

The way to be rid of it is to look
after your digestion.
If your food is all properly di.
gested, there will be none left ia the
