to offend by the staring letters, he was referred

 The hash founder looked up. "Flow. CTS won't live in restaurants" he said "rhe smoke and odor of the cooking seems to smother them. and they never thrive. I've tried it dozens of times, and always with the same result. Put flowers in saloon, though. and they grow and bloom in splendid shape. The tobacco smoke l suppose, serves as a fumigator, and the fumes of the liquor apparently stimulate them. If you want to make success of flowers. put them in grogshop.

Have Courage,

You must have courage, my boy. No matter what band of circumstances ar ray themselves against you, if your purpose is right you will succeed. Life is a beautiful thing. The chance to fight is a great blessing. No matter how hard the situation may seem, keep on doing right bravely face the future, set your standard high, work and wait, be patient and thankful. and you will win. You may never be rich as the world goes-not rich in money or rich in power-but you may be rich in the knowledge of the truth that you have made the best of your chance to be a man. Don't set your standard by the men who have achieved great wealth. That is nothing compared to the riches that belong to him who has struggled to enlarge and ennoble the circle of life in which he is cast.-Schoolmaster.

The Belief In n Devil.

A maidservant belonging to one of the women's colleges had been out with her lover without leave from her mistress and was returning late along my road, at the top of which lived the lamented Professor Nettleship. Now, the latter had large yellow dog that took the usual canine delight in seeing cats scatter and flee, and, the better to bounce on them when they were stealthily crossing the street, he would perch himself on the top of the pro- fessor's garden wall, surrounded and half hidden in the foliage. As the tru- ant maidservant passed beneath him he caught sight of cat in the middle of the road and, making a spring at it, collided with her and knocked her down. She picked herself up and ran screaming home, almost mad with ter TOT, because, as she said, the devil had jumped on her back and thrown her down.-International Monthly.

The Hermit Crab,

Gertly crack the shell of the whelk, for you will find 1t almost impossible to extract the occupant alive otherwise, and you will see what you may be par. doned for supposing a miniature lob. ster, but which in reality belongs to an. other distinct species-namely the her. nit crab, Pagurus bernhardus. Wheth. CT he has obtained occupancy by force of arms or merely through decease of the original tenant is moot point, but the first supposition is highly probable, as he is most belligerent little cuS. tomer.
 An amusing scene may be witnessed by placing several hermit crabs depriv- cd of their shells in an ordinary soup plate, with little sea water and some empty shells-fewcr shells than crabs. The fighting and struggling to secure houses is ludicrous in the extreme. One may be seen almost successful in moor ing himself within shell, which, by the way, is effected by means of the shelly plates at the extremity of his soft and twisted tail, when another seizes him by the nape of the neck, as 1t were, and he Is dragged reluctantly forth. The evicter still holds him strug- gling at claws length. and not until he himself is safely ensconced does he re- iinqulsh his grasp.-Chambers' Journal.

Cure For HipcOUgh.

Hiccough usually attacks persons of nervous temperament and young chi. Gren who have overloaded the stom- ach. It may also be induced by eating foods which have been too highly sea- soned.
 The most useful remedy and perhaps the most inoffensive and the best con- sfsts in sucking piece of sugar which has previously been steeped in vinegar or drinking spoonful of good vinegar in which some sugar has been dis solved.

4 Much Drended Fly.

The man eating fly of Central Amer. lea inhabits the low lying cosst re- gions and is much dreaded by the na- tives for the fearful results which fol- low its sting. Naturalists call it Lu. cilia hominivora. The average speci- men is about third of an inch long. It has big head, with the eyes on top. Its cheeks are golden yellow, Its abdomen dark blue with purple bands, its legs black, its wings unusu- slly big, and they produce continuous md loud buzzlng when in motion.
 The person bitten by this fly gets a disease called myiasis. It generally begins with an itching of the nose; then that organ swells and bleeds, next 1t becomes Liberated, and in these ul- cers may be found the larvn of the fly. The whole face becomes swollen; cry sipelas sets in, followed by meningitis md death. One man knew, said traveller in that country, shot himself after he had been bitten rather than face the tortures he knew were cer- tain. Cure is difficult. Subcutaneous injections of chloroform sometimes do good, but as often fail. One man I heard of was cured by lemon juice in. jected into his blood.

 MT. s. M Marshall bookkeeper of the Atlanta (Ga.)

At times the swelling and inflammation was so severe he was almost blind. For eight years the poison would break out every season. His condition was much improved after taking one bottle of s. s.

FOOD IN FRUIT SKINS.
kutritive Qualities In Them Believed
 to Be q Brnin Food.

Dcre are more nutr1tlNe QuallLleS hidden in the skins of fruits, cereals and vegetables than the average per son is aware of. In fact, the great bulk of the brain building foods are in we eat.
 If, as Savarin says, "the destiny of nations depends on their food" then the destiny, whether q healthy long life or insanity or suicide of every unit of the United States depends on how he or she is fed.
 If the breed so much depends upon food, why should not every person Cit pable of normal thought seek to pro- cure such food as best sustains his or her normalty2 Brain starvation, through the lack of suitable brain and nerve nourishment in our daily food. Is the sole cause of the craving for stimulants to supply, as they do, arti- ficially and improperly what natuf. has provided in natural form In the skin of the grape, which contains the best part of the wine; in the skins of all fruits and vegetables, and if not iu the skins of the cereals, how comes it tb"t stimulating properties are extract eu from them, as the inner kernel, the starch, is devoid of anything other than heat giver?
 It has been proved by chemical anal ysis and demonstrated by microscopic experiments that the most valuable brain sustaining properties are resi- dent in all skins of cereals, fruits and vegetables, and as an instance of the great difference to the health resultant from partaking or rejecting the skins here is an incident that occurred in India, as told by an Indian officer:
 A regiment was stationed in a part of the country where grapes were the chief article of food. The officers, one after another, became so sick as to be invalided as unfit for service, but it being considered remarkable that the troops were all well q commission of inquiry was instituted, when it was found that while every trooper in eat ing grapes swallowed the skins the off cers followed tLe fashionable habit of rejecting theE. It was then ordered that the officers should swallow the skins, which was done, with the result that they immediately recovered
 Thus it will be seen that the skin of the grape, besides being brain feeder, possesses other healthful and nutritive qualities necessary to tbe sustenance of the human body. The reason why as paragus, cabbage, string beans, lettuce, spinach and other green vegetables are 80 wholesome is that the skins are moi relected.-Our Friend.
