BRAIN.FooD NONSENSE.

Another ridiculous food fad has
been branded by the most compe-
tent authorities. They have dis
PEELED the silly notion that one kind
of food Is needed for BRAIN, another
for muscles, and still another for
bones. A correct diet will not not
nourish particular part Of the body
but II will sustain every other part.
Yet. however good your food may
be- it, nutriment Is destroyed by in
digestion or dyspepsia. You must
prepare for their appearance or pre-
vent their coming by taking regular
doses Of Green's August Flower, the
favorite medicine Of the healthy
millions. A few doses aids diges-

Il AWKWARD AGE"

Probably not more than one boy or
girl in a hundred escapes what is
known as "the awkward age" Those
of you who have reached that period
do not need to be told it's dlsoom-
forts. When you find yourself in
the company of strangers, you seem
TO have some difficulty in d~isposing
of your hands and feet. You feel as
if every body in the room was looking
at you and If you make q remark,
the sound of your own voice fairly
makes you jump. You fall into the
way of creeping up the back stairs
when you hear the buzz of talk in the
psrlor, and if company is invited in
for the evening, you are quite likely
80 ask permission to go TO see some
friend in the neighborhood.
We believe that there is no lack of
courage in the hearts of our boys and
girls who have come to this self CON
scious age. We want you to be brave
enough to do battle against your own
shyness. You have not much re
spect for one who gets out of a diff
Guilty by running away. Stand your
ground when your older sister has
invited in some of her young friends
to spend the evening. If your mother
has company TO tea, do not let your
interest lag-listen TO what is going
On around you. As your interest Is
awakened you will find your self-oon-
seriousness leaving you. You will
find afterwards that your hands look
ed after themselves. If there comes
opportunity, do your part, however
little that may be, toward entertain
ing the guests in your home.
If you find this hard work at first,
you may comfort yourself by think
ing that with each new effort it will
become easier. And even If it did
not, you cannot afford to neglect 80
necessary a part of your training

Children's Column,
GNoMEs AND DwARFs OF FOLKLORE
THEIR DESCENDANTS LIVING IN
AFRICA TODAY.

1t Is just possible that this type of
pygmy negro which survives TO. day
In the recesses of inner Afri "a may
even have overspread Europe in re-
mote times. If il did, then the CON
clusion is irresistible that il gave
rise TO most of the myths and beliefs
connected with gnomes, kobolds and
fairies. The demeanor and actions
of the little Congo dwarfs at the
present day remind one over and over
again of the traits attributed to the
brownies and COLLINS of our fairy
stories. Their remarkable power Of
becoming invisible by adroit hiding
in heritage and behind rocks, their
probable habits in sterile or open
countries of making their homes in
holes and caverns, their mischiev-
BUSINESS and prankish good nature.

ing a dwarfsh people of quasi-super-
natural attributes. The dwarfs of
the Congo forest can be good or bad
neighbors TO the big black people &C
cording TO the treatment they re
ceive. If their selfish depredations
on the banana groves or their occa-
sional thefts of tobacco or maize are
condoned, or even if they are concil
lated by small gifts of such food left
exposed where it can be easily taken,
they will in return leave behind them
in their nightly v~1sitations gifts of
meats and products of the chase,
such as skins or ivory. 1 have been
informed by some of the forest ne
groes that the dwarfs will occasion
ally steal their children and put in
their places pygmy babies of ape-like
appearance-ohangelings, in fact
bringing up the children they have
stolen in the dwarf tribe. These COL
lections of pygmies, which n can
scarcely call tribes, certainly exhibit
from time TO time individuals of or
binary stature, and with features not
strongly resembling those of the
pygmy type.-Sir Henry b. John

PROFANITY.

Is can scarcely be denied that pro.
family is getting to be much more
COMMON than it was. The age is
hcHng in reverence, and irreverence
asserts itself in profanity. But it is
4lsedless and soul destroying habit,
4 Erofane swearer gets nothing in
nturn for his sin, except the further
Edtation of his temper, which ought
% be rather restrained than I'm,
dashed.
Down on the seacoast there is a
ah which the natives call the skip
s.k. Other fish have TO be caught
B! seine, gig, or baited hook, but the
skip ok bites at the bare hook. You
only have TO trail the bare hook in
the water rapidly so as to make some
imitation Of a swimming minnow and
tie skip jack bites at it TO his own
distinction. So Satan bats the hook
for thu thief, or the adulterer, and
sometimes drives his victim into the
let q lying and murder, but he
catches the profane swearer with the
bare AOok-Presbyterian Standard.

To my mind the first thing for a
young man starting out in life is TO
determine to do more than his simple
duty. Do not be afraid of your en-
ployer. When you know you are
right stick to it, and fight it out
with your boss. The boy that can
beat me in an argument is the boy I
want in my employ. He is the boy
that will some day get into the firm.
The successful man is not the one
who is proficient in n thing and
not in others. He must be a good
all-round man, capable of doing all
things well.-Andrew Carnegie.

HOW TO BE A GENTLEMAN.

Let no boy think he can be made
a gentleman by the clothes he wears,
the horse he rides, the stick he car
ries, the dog that trots after him,
the house that he lives in, or the
money he spends. Not one, nor all
of these do it, and yet every boy
may be a gentleman. He may wear
an old hat, cheap clothes, live in a
poor house, and spend but little
money. But how? By being true,
manly, and honorable. By keeping
himself neat and respectable. By be-
ing civil and courteous. By respect
ing himself and others. By doing
the best he knows how. And, finally,
and above all, by fearing God and
keeping his commandments.-Sun
day School Evangelist.
