REOPENING OF CONGRESS-.

 Flower Scene in the House.

Washington, Dec. 2.-The opening day of the first session of the Fifty seventh Congress in the House of Representa- lives furnished spectacle which de- lighted the crowded galleries. The machinery of the House is cumberous and 1t is set in motion by laborious process, but the spectators to-day evil dently did not consider it tedious for they clung to their places through the entire proceedings, which lasted four and one-half hours, probably half the time being consumed in the monoton- pus calling of the roll. The organiza- tion of the body was accomplished ac- cording to time-honored precedents. Sneaker Henderson was sworn in by General Bingham, the Father of the House. and after graceful speech in recognition of the honor bestowed upon

A WORD TO THE THIN.
Gervousness Is Generally the Chief
Trouble, and 1t Must Be Cured.

a great lea. Las been written by ply

desire u reduce their weight, but the dis
coateate3 al the other end Of the scale
who long for more covering on their
bones ar- very generally left to discover
fo- themselves, if they can, means TO
gala their end.
TLlness, like obesity, mag be due to
some constitutional defect in nutrition,
often running in the family, or it may be
a symptom Of chronic disease. a grad
ual loss Of flesh without any apparent
cause in one who has been in previous
good condition is a suspicious sign and
should lead one to seek careful med
zeal examination, SO that the cause,
whatever it may be, may be discovered
and corrected while there is time.
Otter persons have always been too
tina while seeming in other respects to
be in fair health. To such a few simple
directions may be of service.
Th'n persons are very apt to be nerv-
ousiy strung, fretting over triles and
borrowing trouble on every possible occa-
sion. They sleep poorly, dream much
and are always in u state Of unrest in
their walking hours. They are not un-
commonly large eaters, but their food is
for tie most part meat and is boted with
very little masticaton.
1t viii tie Of little use to modify the
diet in such cases unless the nervousness
is treated at the same time. The person
must avoid all things which stimulate
the nervous system-cXciting novels and
theatrical pieces, the use of tobacco, cof-
fee, tea and SO forth. The diet should
consist largely Of articles Of fattening
nature such as starchy vegetables,
sweets. butter and fat meats. Meals
should be SMALL but frequent A certain
amount of nouriShmcnt taken in six por-
lions will make more flesh than the same
amount divided into three meals
Chocolate may be substituted for the
morning tea or coffee. Water should be
drunk in large quantities at other than
mealtimes, but fluids should be taken
sparingly with the meals. Cod liver oil,
if it does not nauseate, should he taken
regularly; if it cannot be tolerated, cream
may be substituted.
The night hours of sleep should be long,
and Il nap may be taken with advantage
in the middle of the day.-Youths Com

HIDDEN USES OF TREES.

Jtilitarians consider the trunk the i'm

a wise makeshift Of nature which towers
aloft and tries to lift the vital organs Of
the tree-the leaves-out Of harms way
and into purer air and brighter sunshine.
Beneath the ground the strong roots and
rootlets have hundreds of eager. thirsty
mouths which take nouriShment from the
earth. Water and mineral matter are
carried upward by the process of capil-
larry attraction to the leaves in the crown
and the branches for digestion and as
smi,ation. y leahess tree stands little

leaves by caterpillars and other mis-
chievous things are deprived of their

Winding the BnhY.

When God sends little child into a
home. he bestows the most precious gift
that could be given. The self sacrificing
care which the little stranger demands
many a woman is but too ready to in
trust to another. The housekeeper guards
her fragile charge from careless and
rough hands. the costly bric-a-brac she
dustS herself, and her delicate lace hand
kerchiefs are given over to no inexpe-
rienced laundress. But the baby. help
less to protest, is but too often trusted
to a young, thoughtless girl who knows
little and cares less about her duties
There are women whose health renders
them untitled for taking the complete
care of the child. If this is the case. it
cannot be too strongly urged to econo-
mize in every other way rather than
with the nurse. Secure at all hazards a
reliable, competent nurse. one who
loves children and who will give the baby

A neat, attractive looking housemaid
adds to the dignity Of an establishment.
Unless she is too far gone 10 vanity she
does her work better than the discour-
aged homely girl. Attractiyeness is not
thing OF eyes and hair and features In
general, bat is an all peryading express
sion Of self respect and neatness. The
slovenly girl lacks true self respect, and
If she is willing to open her mistress
front door in soieg apron and torn dress
1t is very evident that she has not
proper respect for her mistress.
1t has been my good fortune, said en-
elderly woman, to have always employed
attractive servants. They are more
amenable to discipline, they do not have
occasion to worry about their looks and
are consequently more cheerful. When

ESAU BUCK AND THE BUCK6AW.
The Bucksnw, the Seesaw and the
Buck That saw Esau Saw.

An OLD farmer If Arkansas. whose sons
had all grown UP and left him, hired a
young man ot the name Of Esau Buck TO
help him IN his farm. On the evening Of
the first day they hauled up small load
Of poles for wood and unloaded them be-
tween the garden and the barnyard.
The next morning the old man said to
the hired man, "Esau, l am going to
town today. and while I am gone you
may saw up that wood and keep the old
ram out Of the garden"
When the old man had gone, Esau
Went out 10 saw the wood, but when he
saw the saw he wouldn't saw it, When
Esau saw the saw, he saw that he
couldn't saw it with that saw. Esau
looked around for another saw, but that
was the only saw he saw, so he didn't
saw it, When the old man came home.
he says to Esau, "Esau, did you saw the
wood Z" Esau said, Il saw the wood,
but | wouldn't saw it, for when l saw
the saw I saw that l couldn't saw with
that saw. so | didn't saw it." The old
man went out to see the saw, and when
he saw the saw he saw that Esau
couldn't saw with that saw. When Esau
saw that the old man saw that he
couldn't saw with the saw, Esau picked
up the AK and chopped up the wood and
made a seesaw. The next day the old
man went to town and bought a new
bucksaw for Esau Buck, and when he
came home he hung the bucksaw for
Esau Buck on the sawbuck by the see
saw.
Just at this time Esau Buck saw the
old buck in the garden eating cabbage,
and when driving him from the garden
to the barnyard Esau Buck saw the
bucksaw on the sawbuck by the seesaw,
and Esau stopped to examine the new
bucksaw. Now when the old buck saw
Esau Buck looking at the new bucksaw
on the sawbuck by the seesaw he made
a dive for Esau, missed Esau, hit the
seesaw, knocked the seesaw against Esau
Buck. who fell on the bucksaw on the
sawbuck by the seesaw. Now when the
old man saw the old buck dive at Esau
Buck and miss Esau and hit the seesaw
and knock the seesaw against Esau and
Esau Buck fall on the bucksaw on the
sawbuck by the seesaw he picked up the
ak to kill the old buck, but the buck
saw him coming and lodged the blow
and countered on the old mans stomach,
knocked the old man over the seesaw
on TO Esau Buck, who was getting up
with the bucksaw off the sawbuck by the
seesaw, crippled Esau Buck, broke the
bucksaw and the sawbuck and the see
saw.
Now when the old buck saw the COM
pletencss of his victory over the old man
and ESau Buck and the bucksaW and the
sawbuck and the seesaw he quietly turn
ed around, went back and jumped into
the garden again and ate up what was
left of the old mans characterization

One of the most amazing phases of
modern life is the lack of sane parental
knowledge which exists on the part of
mothers in the education of their grow
ing daughters. 1t seems to be impossible
for some mothers clearly to realize that
girl between the years of 10 and rs
cannot endure any mental or physical
strain without inviting the gravest pos.
sible dangers. The cases of the grossest
neglect of the physical development Of
our American girl are. according to med
zeal statistics, traceable to New England
homes. The weight of girls head rath-
er than the weight of her body is what
most concerns the New England mother.
And the results of such training are ap-
parent to even the most casual observer
of the American woman. In short, the
New England horse is healthier prod
