II is no secret to medical men and
psychologists that there is great deal
Of nourishment in water. Even that
which is sterilized contains enough o.
solids to keep a human being from
death for a long time. During a pro-
longed fast the loss of weight is un-
usually rapid at first and decreases as
time goes on. Death ensues when a
certain percentage Of the loss has been
reached, and this percentage varies ac-
cording to the original weight Fat
animals may lose half their weight
thinner ones perhaps two-ffths, a man
or woman Of rather spare build weigh
ing 143 pounds, might, therefore, lose
about fifty-fye pounds before sue

from three to five days, during which
they have lost a quarter of their
weight. Healthy adults, however, have
tasted fifty days when water has been
taken. A German physician reports

Gianf Mexican Spiders.

A New York professor has just re-
turned home after spending the win
ter in exploring the mountains near
Buena Vista and investigating the
habits Of a species Of monster spiders
found in the middle Cottonwood pass.
Little definite is known of these spi-
ders, but around them has been gath
cred a mass of Indian legend and
prospectors' yarns that rival those OF
Munchausen.
Many years ago these spiders lived
in a cave easily reached by tourists. 1t
was in valley two miles northeast
from Harvard City, then a thriving
mining camp eight miles west Of
Buena Vista In 1880 a man named
Shultz cut his way into the spiders
den. He did not return, and a week
later a searching party found his body
partly buried in the spiders cave un-
der a mass of fallen rock. As it would
have required timberlng at an expense
Of several hundred dollars to recover
the body, and as the man had no
known relatives it was left undis-
turbed The spiders have found an
other home farther back in the noun
tains. Some of the tales told about
these spiders are given in an old let
ter which has just been found In
Buena Vista. It says:
"A short distance out of Buena Wis
ia there is a cave swarming with spl-
ders of immense size, some of them
having legs four inches in length and
bodies as large as that of a canary
bird. The cave was discovered in 1868,
and was often visited by pioneers on
their way to California, who obtained
heir webs for use in the place OF
thread. Early and late the cave re-
sounds with a buzzlng sound emitted
by the spiders as they weave their
webs. The webs vera tested in II

X The Care Of GloOeS.

Nothing looks worse than soiled
gloves, and as they are an expensive
item in dress they require careful
management. A first-class glove out
wears half a dozen pairs of cheap ones,
and at the same time looks well until
1t is finally discarded. Cheap gloves,
however. have their uses; expensive
ones should never be worn in wet
weather or in hot rooms or In theatres,
where the heat will cause the hands TO
perspire, for when q glove is once
stained by perspiration no amount Of
cleaning will make it look well again
For such occasions cheap gloves are
far more scrviceable. To clean
chamois gloves put the gloves on your
hands, and wash them as if you were
washing your hands. in warm water
and white CASTLE soap; wash until
they are quite clean; then take them
of and hang them in a warm place to
dry. Kid gloves may be cleaned In
the following manner: Put a lltJlc
fresh milk in dish, and a piece Of
white CASTLE soap in another. and have
convenient a clean cloth folded three
OF four times, and small piece Of
flannel Place the soiled glove smooth
and neat upon the cloth, and dip the
flannel into the milk; then rub off
good quantity of the soap on the wet
flannel and commence to rub the glove
downward toward the fingers, holding
it firmly with the left hand. Continue
this process until the glove, If white.

Needless
is Worry

what is worry?" Annie Besant
in the Theosophical Review asks this
question and then dilates upon it
somewhat as follows 1T is the proc
ess of repeating the same train Of
thought over and over again, with
small alterations, coming to no result
and not even aiming at the reaching Of
a result" He who is given to worry
has dwelt on a puzzling painful sub
jeCt, wishing, but failing to find the
solution of some problem until, held in
this anxious and uncertain condition,
he becomes dominated by the fear Of
the anticipated trouble. His thought
current has made for itself a channel
and his mental energies flow along
this track as it is the line of least
resistance. Held as it were in this
brain-track by the fascination of fear,
his mental vitality is sapping itself
away and poisoning the blood cells in
his brain. AS Elmer T. Gates. has
proved by his chemical analysis Of
perspiration of the man who is de-
pressed, low-spirited and despalring
he is actually producing a ptomaine
of a certain kind which enters into the
circulation of his blood, and often
physical disease follows. Now how
can we get rid Of this worry channel?
By digging another OF an exactly op-
posite character, made by definite per-
sistent regular thought Of the kind
opposed to worry Let a man who is
given to worry give a few minutes
every day to some noble and encour-
aging thought. Let him picture the
Divine Self within as a fountain Of
strength and peace from which ne
may drink refreshment at any mo-
ment Of need. Let him turn and listen
to the message of his innermost Divine
nature and he will find himself en-
folded in peace that swollows up fear.
If he will persist in this with regu-
larity the thought will dig a new
channel and the old one will disappear
Ere long he will find that whenever his
mind is free from labor, his thoughts
will flow unbidden into tho channel of
peace and power which viii shed a
restful atmosphere around him, felt
though perhaps not seen by all who
are near him. Mental energy will
flow into healthy nougishing channels,

THE SCHUMANN COMPANY To-
MORROW.

The people of Ell Paso are to be con-
graduated on having an opportunity
of hearing the famous Schumann COM
pany tomorrow evening at the Myar
opera house. In speaking of them.
the Columbia State, S. c., of March
Sth, has the following to say:
1T is not often that Columbia has
such a musical treat, such a feast of
melody as was given last evening by
the Schumann's company who appear
ed in the Auditorium. Many days will
come and go before the equals of this
company are heard in Columbia. One
must travel far and wide to find an
other such quartette of musicians
whose talents are so varied and whose
performance so pleasing. 1t is gen.
orally the case that an audience merely
tolerates an elocutionist or a violon-
celiist. and a harp soloist who is a
master of that wonderfully beautiful
instrument is rare indeed. But the
elocutionist. violoncelist, the harpist
and the soprano who compose this
company are each an artistic in her
line, and each charmed and delighted
a cultured audience last evening in
Columbia. Applause and encores were
showered upon them all with equal
1avishness and all gracefully and gra-
ciously responded.
