Drinking Through the NostriIs.

The Indian sages do not practice
their breathing exercises simply for
the sake of repose and sleep. During
the inbreathing energy is increased.
These Indians are not the only people
who believe that with the inbreathing
of pure air there comes something still
more vital than oxygen. But the Indi-
ans have developed the art of breath
ing more than any other people.
One of their favorite exercises Is to
inhale through the left nostril, to hold
the breath for time and then eXhale
through the right nostril.
Another of their exercises is to drink
water through the nostrils, and after ii
has been retained for short time it is
expelled through the nostrils and the
mouth. This is said to cool the head

FLOWER AND TREE.

Palms never live more than go years.

Nothing Is better for house plants
than to be set out in gentle, warm
rain, but a cold rain and wind are any
thing but hopeful to them.
In planting trees an important point
not to be forgotten is pressing the soil
down upon the roots so that they will
come in close contact with it.
a pot of flowers in bud should re-
ceive all the sunshine possible, but
when the buds open keep them in
shade, and they will last longer.
The largest apple tree in New Eng
land is in Cheshire, Conn. It's trunk
measures one foot above all root ex-
largencnts, Is feet inches in circum-
ference.
An orchard, whether young or old,
should not be allowed to grow where
heavy crops of grass are taken every
year. 1t is weakening to the soil and
detrimental to the trees.

FARMER JOE'S SPEECH.
It Wns short, but II Crushed the
Bumptious YOungster


Bumptious Youngster.
"You may get the better of an oppo-
nent in debate" said an old time ora
tor, "by sheer force of convincing argu-
ment-that is to say, you may score
and win on points-but if you want to
put your man down and out at a single
coup just make him ridiculous. Only
succeed in doing this, and all the logic
of the other side will explode in vacan-
cy like so many blank cartridges.
"Once when 1 was serving a term up
the state in the legislature a bumptious
youngster who had just been introduce
ed was laboring through his maiden
effort. He was attacking a man who
was his senior by at least a score and
ten years and thought to make hit by
referring to him as that little gray
beard from Herkimer.' Rymal of Mag
ara rose to reply. He was an old timer,
who never spoke unless he had some
thing to say and so was always sure of
an attentive audience. Farmer Joe, as
he was called, got up slowly, gradually
expanded himself to his full height Of
6 feet /, thrust his left hand behind the
tails Of a capacious and somewhat
shabby frock coat, held up the index
finger of his right hand, cleared his
throat ominously and solemnly began:
"'Mr Speaker, the honorable gentle
man who has just spoken has never
read Popes essay. If he had, he would
remember that the "soul's the standard
of the man." And, sir, fifty such souls
as that of the honorable gentleman
who preceded me could be put into the
skull of a flea and have as much room
there as two frogs in Lake SUPERIOR
lie didn't have to say more. The
chamber went into a CONFUSION of
laughter which lasted for several min
utes after the tall farmer had resumed
his seat. AS for the youngster, he did
the best he could. He wriggled about,
got red in the face, tried to look uncon-
cerned and kept his mouth closed dur
ing the balance of the session. New

Fans In Shakespeare's Time,

Fans in Shakespeare's time seem to
have been composed of ostrich and 9TH
err feathers fastened to handles. Cen
tlemen carried fans in those days, and
in one of the later figures of the ger
man they now carry fans. According
to an old manuscript in the Ashmolean
museum, Sir Edward Cole rode the cir
cult with prodigous fan, which had a
long stick, with which he corrected his
daughters.

So far l had attempted all that he had asked. even those "carpet tacks" called epigrams. but connotation was beyond me. did not understand the first principle of con- notation, and as for creating new mood through old details, 1t was hard enough to create an old mood through new de- tails. MT. Abbott talked on. occasionally looking at me as if he thought I was in special need of the information. At length he took up a theme, opened it, and rum ming his hand down the centre to smooth out the crease, said:
 Here I have a theme which may give you clearer idea of what I want you to do tomorrow"
 "Oh. happy writer" thought I, :who understands connotation. and can create a new mood through old details
 The instructor began to read. listened hopefully, and then found that he was reading one--of my own!
 As the summer school drew to it's close. I became possessed with an all absorbing desire to write one theme that could not be criticised. The day before the last of the course, we were told to write as themes for the next day suggestions for the teaching of English. I determined that SO far as technique was concerned, my last theme should be perfect. It should be clear; 1t should be specific; 1t should not lack unity; it should have force without lacking reserved force, and above all 1t should be neither prolix nor trite spent four hours on the one sen- tence that was to be my theme and when I finished, I was convinced that ac- cording to all the rules laid down iu Professor Hill's Principles of Rhetoric" and MT. Barrett Wendell's English Com position" and in the lectures of the in- structor, 1t was above criticism.
 This was what I wrote:
 After six such weeks of daily lectures on the technique of composition, of daily practice in writing themes. of daily crit icism on those themes, of daily confer ences when personal interviews were de- sired. of daily examples Of patience and endurance on the part of the instructor, as has been the experience of the class of English B of 1898. what further sug- gestions can be made on the teaching of English composition?'
 Mir. Abbott read this aloud to the class and then with smile pronounced it. ''Heresy."

Did you ever attend a summer school?
 Then you do not know what you have missed. They are great institutions, and afford endless opportunity for improv- ing the mind along the lines of ignor- ance. That may sound like paradox, but it tells the tale. You never realize until you have attended the summer school of some great University how much you do not know. The effect at first may be a little depressing, but 1t is magical as an eye opener.
 However, among the vast extent of subjects from which one can choose for special enlightenment, there is nothing in the category of courses for learning your own lack of knowledge as that of English at Harvard. If you do not be- lieve me. try it.
 It was in the summer of 1896 that l determined to take this special course at Harvard University. The instructor that year was MT. Herbert Vaughn Abbott, son of Rev. Lyman Abbott, the success sor of Henry Ward Beacher and present editor of "The Outlook"
 The course in question passes under the innocent title of English B" in the sum- mer school catalogue. but 1t Is doubtful if many understand all that those words imply. For thorugh lesson in hurnili- ty, fostering perplevity and a total destruction of former ideals, there is noth- ing like those six weeks of instruction in English Composition. To me 1t was a period filled with uncertainty, sur prises, and often the blackest despair. entered the class, not, to- be sure, with any ideas as to literary genius, but at least feeling that I had some thoughts worth expressing and hoping to gain a fair amount of ability and ease in doing so That feeling was soon dispellsd. l remember that shortly after our work began, a Cambridge lady in discussing the modern method of teaching English kindly said to me:
 Nov don't let them prune you until you lose all your originality"
 My dear madam" 1 replied. 'I never had any originality"
 The course consisted of short daily themes, and eight long themes with cri- ticisms before the class. and personal conferences with the instructor. Some of the themes were read aloud each day by the instructor as examples either good or bad and the members of the class often joined in the criticism Those were moments of mingled sensations to the student whose name, by merciful rule, was always unknown to the class.
 One of the first themes read aloud was about an old man and a child. The student spoke of their sitting beneath the shade of an oak" and Mir. Abbott paused right there to remark that 1t was very we'll for the first person who noticed that an

Now leave 1t to the aver age person If 1t does not cause twtnge to give up 'the shade of an oak" That same morning MT. Abbott read another theme in which the student spoke of trees as standing like sentinels." It was suggested that If we only knew how many trees stood like sentineis in daily themes, we would give them chance occasionally to stand like something else.
 After few days we knew not what to expect. For my part, whenever l wrote anything I thought particularly good I was told that 1t was loosely phrased. proIix, or trite When 1 handed in a theme that regarded as merely passa- ble, it would be returned with the crit- icism "a capital sketch" delightful" or "the best thing of yours I nave yet seen." When I narrated an incident in what I thought my best and freshest style 1t would be considered vague" When I wrote character sketches rather hurriedly and indifferently, they would be termed sympathetic" or "apprecia- tive in treatment and when I wrote others. taking as my subject particular friend, keeping closely to the truth as to her interesting characteristics found the written criticism: Your caricatures are carried too far to be plausible" Once a student showed me her theme with the single criticism in red ink "mushy."
 am sure that I aged six years in those six weeks. And those daily themes! At first it was easy enough to think of some- thing to write about, but as time went on the endeavor to find suitable subjects was like a continuous nightmare. The course had Asm recommended as par ticularly efacacious in cultivating habits of observation, and it was. We became so that nothing escaped us. We gazed at everything abstractedly in the hope of finding literary material from funeral procession to a cat running across the street. One student told me that she could no longer eat with comfort for trying to think of ideas about her breakfast, and a man in the class, in a fit of despera- tion, described the process of going to bed.
 Often the kind of subject would be given us Once we were told to treat some ordinary scene or incident of our experience in such a way as to make it different from all similar scenes or incl dents. I paced the floor that night in the effort to think of something ordinary that ever had happened to me. I had not realized before that all the incidents of my life had been of an extraordinary character, and the discovery caused me much unhappiness.
