Painting Fits.

Painting proceeds from different
causes, the commonest being a dis.
turbance in the circulation of the
blood in the brain. For an ordinary
fainting fit lay the patient flat.
Great harm has often resulted from
the treatment of ignorant people in
trying to make the patient sit up OF
propping up the head with pillows.
To send the blood back from the
heart to the brain the flat posture
is absolutely necessary. Let the pa
tient lie SO that the feet are higher
than the head, throw the clothes
about the chest and throat open,
sponge the face with cold water and
give some cold water to drink.

An irish scl,oolhousc.

Nearly every day I saw the chill
dren going to school in the morning
and met them returning in the
evening. Their aspect had the
same untamed wildness then that it
had as saw them running about
the bogs and crags that surrounded
the home village, is the comment OF
a writer in The Outlook. The school
house was four miles distant along
desolate road winding through
the dun marshes. The children
went barefoot and bareheadcd, ex
cept for a few of the older boys,
who wore caps. They each carried
a piece of dry bread for their noon
lunch, and that was all the food
they had till they returned home
late in the afternoon. But, with all
their hardships, they looked sturdy
and healthy. Probably weaklings
do not survive long. Once I noticed
that boy in q group of children
returning from school carried a
book, and I asked to see it. 1t was
a most forlorn little third reader,
a wreck Of q book-covers broken,
marked and greasy within, and
many pages gone OF torn.
Tho schoolhouse was a bare mod
ern building, with gray plaster
walls. 1t stood in the center of a
rough, rocky yard that was sur
rounded by q high stone wall. Out
side the inclosure all was bog.

THE CAPE OF STORMS.

We may steer our boats by the compass,
Or may follow the northern star;
We may carry a chart on shS
As we sail o'er the sens afar.
But whether by star or by compass
We may guide our boats on our way,
The grim Cape Of Storms is before us,
And wo'll see it ahead some day.
How the Prov may point is no matter,
Nor of what the cargo may be,
If we sail on the northern ocean
Or away on the southern sea.
It matters not what is the pilot,
To what guidance our course conforms
No vessel sails DER the sea of life
But must pass the Cape of Storms.
Sometimes we can first sight the headlanl
On the distant horizons brim.
Ne enter the dangerous waters
With our vessels all taut and trim,
But often the cape in its grimness
Will before Us suddenly rise,
Because of the clouds that have hid it
Or the binding sun in our eyes.
Our souls will be caught in the waters
That are hurled 'gainst the Storm Cape's
face;
orr pleasures and joys, our hopes and fears,
Will join in the maddening race;
Our prayers, desires, our pcnitent gricfs,
Our 1ongings and passionate pain
Be dashed to spray on the stormy cape
And fly back in our face like rain.
But there's always hope for the sailor.
There is ever passage through.
No soul goes down at the Cape Of Storms
IF the life and the heart be true.
IF in purpose the soul is steadfast,
IF faithful in mind and in will,
The boat will glide to the other side,
Where the ocean Of life is still.

Matthew's House.

Some years ago q San Francisco
banker maintained q country house
upon what were supposed to be en-
tirely original lines. 1t was, how
ever, q poor imitation of the estab-
lishment Of Nj. Mathew Of Thomas
ton, Ireland, who lived in the ear
lier years of the last century. MI.
Mathew inherited an annual income
Of about 1925, 600. For many years
he lived abroad in a very frugal
manner in order to accumulate an
amount that would enable him to
indulge in form Of hospitality in
his own country in harmony with
the plan he had devised. His house
in Ireland might be compared in
those he wanted to visit him had a
suit of apartments and ordered his
meals at the hour that best suited
him. He could eat alone OF he
could invite others to join him. All
the visitors hunted, shot, fished,
played billiards or cards at will,
and all brought their own horses.
There was Il regular bar where
drinks were served without stint.
Mr.. Mathew as host completely
effaced himself. He mingled with
his visitors as one whose stay WAS
as definitely fixed as theirs. In fact,
he conducted his house as if it were
q hotel, With the exception that Ill
was without charge. No servant
was allowed to accept q tip. Viola
ton of this rulo was followed by
the instant dismissal of the offend
er. This establishment, unlike other
country houses Of Ireland of the
period, was conducted with perfect
order ana method and without
waste. His hospitality was lavish
and attracted to Nh. Mathew all of
the more famous men OF the time.
The great sum that he had put aside
during his residence abroad enabled
him to indulge his hospitable in
stincts until he died.-New York

set traps to catch birds. Questioned

traps might not catch the birds. y
"Anything else?" Yes, ~ she said.

vent the birds getting into the
traps" And, as if to illustrate the
doctrine of faith and works, she went
and kicked the traps all to pieces

How Refractory Chimnanxee Yves
Brought Into Submission.
The series OF Historical mon
keys kept at the ZOO began with
Joe, a chimpanzee, which the cree
sion Of the new monkey house en-
abled to be kept alive for some time.
Frank Buckland's description of his
management by Mr.. Bartlett gives
an insight into his readiness and re-
source in dealing with different ami
mails. Tho big ape needed exercise.
This he obtained by being allowed
the run of the large monkey house,
instead of remaining in side room,
before the visitors came. AS he
knew he would be caught and put
back into his own room at this hour,
the ape used to climb up to the top
of the other monkeys cages and re-
fuse to come down. AS he could
not be tempted by food, Mr.. Bart
lett appealed to his mind by work
ing on what he had noted to be his
weak points, curiosity and coward
ice. This is Frank Buckland's ac-
count of the daily proceedings at
this hour: "N1r. Bartlett went to
the keeper, and, touching him gen
tly on the shoulder, directed his at
tention in a mysterious manner to
the dark passage underneath the
gas pipe which traverses the house,
pretending to point out to Sutton
somo horrible unknown creature,
using an energetic manner, but say
ing nothing except words to this
effect: Look OUT There he is! There
he isl At the same time the two
men would peer into the dark place
under the gas pipe.
The monkey used presently to
come down to see what tho subject
of fear and interest was, when Mr.
Bartlett and Sutton used to shout:
"He's coming out! He's coming
out!" and rushed away in the direc-
ton of Joe's cage. The monkey
would rush for the same place Of
safety, which happened to be the
door of his own house, and some
times enter it before them. Buck
land notes it as curious that the
monkey never learned the decep-
ton, but would be taken in by it
whenever the time came to finish
his mornings airing.
These indirect methods" of ami
NAL management, sometimes akin
to the wonderful way" some peo-
pie have with little children, never
failed Mr.. Bartlett. TO the last he
would walk around and see all the
creatures as to whose health or tenn
per the keepers had any misgivings,
and his suggestions Oh directions
were scarcely ever at fault. Take,
for example, the difficult case of Il
rhinoceros with a bad "place" on
his face. The question was, Does
the abscess come from bad tooth,
OF does it only need lancing? You
cannot ask rhinoceros if he has
the toothache, and though this one
was in considerable pain the causa
causans was not obvious. All MI.
Bartlett said was, Give him new
birch broom" The broom was pre-
sented, with the bands at tho top
cut, and the rhinoceros at once ate
it, grinding up the bits with great
gusto. "Ah, you see his teeth are
all right, - said Mr.. Bartlett, and
next day he ''lanced" the abscess
with a well sharpened billhook.
The diagnosis was ingenious and
worthy of the head of the profes-
sion, which Mr.. Bartlett undoubted-
V was.-London Spectator.
