How Care Kills.

Wise people have long been aware
that care killed cat" but II has been
LETT TO the Y rays TO explain how and
why. Dr. Fritz Lange Of Munich has
turned his tuorescent screen upon the
stomach of happy and contented cat
and has seen the process Of digestion
going on as II should IN all well resu-
lated stomachs Then he has Introduced
care and irritation into the feline mind
br placing q live mouse just beyond
reach and has seen digestion stopped
thereby.
The Society For the Prevention Of
Cruelty to Animals may cry out on be-
half of the cat. or the mouse, or both.
but the lesson against worrying is as
complete as any Christian Scientist
could desire. Worrying stops digestion,
causes dyspepsia. retards all the nor
NAL physical processes and demoralizes
both body and mind. 1t wastes the
forces Of life. destroying the tissues
without accomplishing anything.-Chi-
cago Tribune.

Meagher was full OF anecdotes Of his
famous brigade. One story Is too good
20 be lost. He said he was leading his
men to the front In one of the seven
days battles when On aid rode by and
announced the news that our army had
carried a certain strategic point and
several colors. Dye hear that boys?'

into the forest depths ali the Romans
that escaped death in the battle were
captured and led into the dark recess

Latham, In his edition Of Tacitus,
quotes six contemporary authorities TO
show that this practice OF concluding

customary among our Teutonic ances-
tors. Some crucified their prisoners.
others hung them up 70 trees for arch
cry practice, but In general captive

Even when the progress OF agriculture
induced them to keep a majority OF
the prisoners alive to be slaves they
appeaSed the gods for this indignity
by increasing the tortures inflicted on
the small remainder.
