Kit in the Back.

In his "Corean Sketches" Mir. Gale tells this story of Chinese battle; Most of those who after the battle came to the dispcnsary in Mukden for treatment were wounded in the back. How is ii that sons of the gods are wounded in the afterparts only? asked the foreigner. Ii looks as if they had run. from the bai barians.' We ad- vanced all right said the Chinaman, according to military methods. Then we put on fierce faces. like Che-kal- Yang. the god of war. certain that the Wo-Jen would run, as they would have done if they had not been hope less savages, unacquainted with Chi nese characters. We rushed on them, breathing forth. fire, but they moved not. Then our general shouted Vic tory!' for we had paralyzed them with our boldness. But suddenly long row of guns was raised like ore arm. and. immortal gods. such dastardly way to fight never saw! know not why we were wounded in the back. '"

The nest Ar Temperature.

The conditions affecting the ten-- perature Of the body other iian those, due to physiological! conditions are very numerous. First and most obvious is, the temperature of the surrounding at. mosphere. It is well-establizhed fact that the average temperature of theair' of q degrees Fahrenheit is best. adapted to the public health. for at that temperature the decomposition Of an-. iinal and vegetable matter is slight and, normal temperature is most easily maintained. Every degree of tenn perature ahove or below that point re. guires a more or less effort Of the heat, reguiating rower to maintain the prop er equilibrium.

Uses of Lime.

The best disinfectant for ordinary use
about the sewerage is chloride Of lime
of the best quality. Common lime is
also very good disinfectant. A coat
of whitewash applied to damp cellar
walls, even after a long rainy period,
when the ground seems permeated
with water. will absorb the moisture
in the air and cause a musty cellar
to lose its odor and become pure and
dry.
Limewater should always be kept
in the house. Put a lump of unslacked
lime in bottle, and fill the bottle
with filtered water. If possible. After
shaking well and letting it stand an
hour or more. until all cloudiness dis
appears, the clear water that remains
may be decanted off as pure limewa.
ter. 1t is as good as the limewater
sold at drug store. except that the
water used in preparing the limewa-
ter is filtered with special care and
may be purer for that reason. 1t is
especially necessary that limewater
should be added to a baby's milk if 1t
shows signs of curdling after the lit
tie one has had its meals. Keep two
nursing bottles in use-one at night
and one during the day. While the
bottles are not in use they should be
cleaned and filed with clear, cold wa
ter, with tiny lump of lime in the
water.-New York Tribune.

Iittlo no-Peep,

Esttle Bo-Peep had three white sheep.
They walked along behind her
For fear she would go so far away,
That they would never find her.
The little sheep walked on two feet
And dragged their tails behind them;
But little Bo-Peep walked on ahead
And never thought to mind them.
Little Bo-Peep took care of the sheep
With a crook with ribbon around it.
And wore a big hat upon her head
With high peak upon it.
The grass was green beneath her feet,
And the sky was blue above her.
The lambs got tired and began to bleat
And lay down in the clover.
Little Bo-Peep went fast asleep
And dreamed the sheep were straying;
But when, she awokc, she found it
joke,
For they were around her playing.

Travelling by coach has, indeed, been
Inflated now that it is possible for
American going to Europe to order
months In advance the coach with
ich he wishes to travel between two
erent points in his journey. The or
lization of an international coach
l. company has recently made that
pr ,ssible. 1t is indeed possible to ar
range an entire trip by coach in ad-
vance and follow it out with as much
certainty as if it were to be taken on a
government railroad. The ultimate
end Of this new enterprise Is the estab-
lishment of series of coaches which
will carry American tourists from one
end of Europe to another and the
preparation of all the details of the
trip in advance, even to ordering the
luncheon for particular day of the
trip and selecting the kind of sand
wiches for an excursion.

The Sick Room.

The first matter to which one in at
tendance on the sick must direct her
attention Is the selection and prepare
ton of the sick persons room. Where
there is a choice of rooms for the
sick persons accommodation, it is
best to select large, well-ventilated,
well-lighted and quiet one. See that
it is perfectly clean to start with, AMI
see that there is as little furniture
in the room as is possible to get along
with; let this be of the simplest
though 1t may be attractive. Pretty
pictures and flowers there may always
be, though the flowers must be re-
moved from the sick room at night No
food or drink should ever be kept in
the room.
Have comfortable bed. with q
good horsehair mattress. The best
sort of bed is a single bed. just wide
enough to allow one to reach across
it easily. Let it be placed in the cen
ire of the room and so arranged that
the light will not fall upon the pa
TENTS head. The bedding should be
light, warm and porous. The sheets
on the sick bed should be laid straight,
smooth and tight, and carefully tucked
in at the foot and sides of the bed.
The sick room should be we'll venti-
lated, both during the night and day.
1t ought to have a. fireplace with chin
ney to it, as well as one or more win
dows capable of being opened at the
top; as far as possible an even tenn
perature should be maintained; 60 de.
grees Fahrenheit is as a rule. the best
for a sick person.-American Queen.
