Talk Much and Live Long.

Talk as much as you can. This Is
the theory of an eminent English doc
tor. because talking is the best possi-
BILE way in which to exercise the lungs
The man who talks much, the little
child who shouts all day in glee over
trivial amusements, the young woman
song bird who makes herself obnoxious
to the other tenants of fiat house, the
fat man who laughs vociferously until
his sides tremble, the maid who signs
and the woman who weeps as if her
heart would break, the bored individu-
al who yawns in church when the SER
mon is dull, all do so in response to an
inward demand for the expulsion of
certain nervous energy which would
find vent in no other way. Talking is
not only good exercise for the mind, but
for the body as well. In fact, persons
who do much talking in their business
or professions, such as lawyers and auc-
tioneers, can dispense with other exer-
else, for in talking they not only ex-
pend much neuro-muscular energy, but
they experience active respiratory
movements. Therefore much talking
is conducive to longevity. 1t is also ben
eficial in heart disease.-London An

TO REACH THE POLE.
Attempts Made in the Pre-Htstoric


At the close of the middle ages, when
the deficiency of knowledge Of the
earth was great. avarice and the quest
for the goods of the south led men into
the northern ice; they sought to reach
India by the shortest possible routes,
where they would not meet rivals and
enemies. This was the object of Ma
gellan's circumnayigation. The Cete-
rum Censeo of James Lancaster assert
ed that the way to India was north,
around America. India was the OBJ
ject of the polar navigators. Cabot in
the fifteenth. Frobisher and Davis in
the sixteenth, and Hudson and Baffin in
the seventeenth centuries, to name only
few OF the most famous. 1t is aston
ishing what these daring British and
Dutch sailors risked, suffered and
gained
They did not, indeed, reach India, but
we all know OF Hudson bay, Davis
strait and Lancaster sound. As we
owe to the men Of the stone age, who
lived before all history, one of the most
important possessions of man, the great
paths they marked ont upon the earth
across streams, over mountains and
through wilderness and plain, which
are still the routes of to-day highways,
so these older arctic Davigators marked
out the courses OF their successors. The
ships of the whalers and seal hunters
followed them, discovering one bay,
island and channel after another, NAM

CAPE COB sANDsToRMs.
Far More Dreaded Than Are the
Western Blixxards.

western BtfxxuFohs
The blizzard is an unknown quantity
in Massachusetts, but in the vicinity of
Cape Cod they have substitute which
is nearly as bad--in fact, the inhabi-
tants dread it more than the people of
the west fear the blizzard. These are
the san6storms which blow over that
remarkable arm of lands. When the
wind blows in gale from the north
east the soft, light sand drifts in inn
mense clouds, completely obscuriug all
objects around further than ten feet
away. 1t is worse than snow in many
respects. 1t not only covers up the road
or trail in short time, but it changes
the general features of the landscape
permanently. People get lost in the
sandstorms, and often, when the storm
subsidies, the landscape is so altered
that they are bewildered and puzzled in
trying to locate their homes.
The sand may not be as freezing cold
as the snow, but II is far more injurious.
It cuts and grinds the face as it strikes
it, and performs about the same opera
ton as a sandblast. Men who have been
lost out in the furious sandstorms and
members of the life-saving patrol have
returned home at night with their faces
lacerated and discolored SO that they
resembled raw beef. Even the glass
windows of the houses are so ground by
the flying sand that they have to be re-
placed often by new ones. After one
heavy storm it is almost impossible to
see through the glass. People now shut
the blinds of the houses facing the
wind during sandstorms in order to
save the glass. No man can face the
sand clouds and endure the pain long
As the prevailing sea winds are from
the northeast on the cape, the sand
dunes are drifting steadily and persist
emily toward Provincetown. Province
town owns its existence to-day to wise
laws which empowered "beach grass
committee" to enter any mans inclosed
garden or field and plant MARIAN grass
if the sand was uncovered or movable.

noticed this phenomenon in the com-

to him to have faint iridescence at

showed that the light was stronger
after very sunny days. Among other
plants which possess this singular

One of the signs of mental health is
equanimity of temper, and the ability to
bear with indifference or even pleasure
the little trials of life, and especially
those which come from scolding, petu-
liant, cross, irritable persons. To this
end the art of not hearing too much
should be learned. There are SO many
things which it is SO painful to hear,
very many of which, il heard, win dis
turb the temper, corrupt simplicity and
modesty, and detract from health and
happiness. If person falls into vio-
lent passion and calls ono all manner
Of names, and we can shut our ears and
not hear it, or If we can laugh at the
words instead of becoming excited, il is
a sign Of healthy nervous system.--
