THEIR WORK KILLS MUSIC.
Telegraph Operators Cannot P1a.
Piano WeiI-Strained Muscles of
the Forearm the Cause.

Did you ever hear Of a telegraphel
who could play the piano. If so, how
many? Not how many pianos, Of
course, but how many telegraphers. Tel
egraph operators find that after they
have worked at key for several years
their forearms and their fingers lost
that fexibiiity that is essential to mu-
,sicianally work on the piano. AS
many Of the men are fond OF music,
and have pianos of their own. they find
it hard, says the New York Herald, to
be cut off from the enjoyment OF the
music they could make for themselves
if it were not for the strained conditions
of their muscles.
. There are few other lines Of work that
1ncapacitate man for picking out the
sharps and fats, but the telegraphers
say that they know few men in their
ranks who can use piano with any eff
feet.
o When they sit down before one their
first impulse is the old impulse that
operating the key gives them. They
want to use that finger that they use in
sending messages, and they find it diff
cult even after they struggle for long
time to make themselves players Of
more than ordinary attachments.

ORIGIN OF THE TENT.
Legend Attributes It's In

of Adam.

IAN ancient Talmudtc legend relates
that Adam, on his expulsion from Par
adlse, encountered a cutting north
wind against which his scant girdie
of fig leaves proved poor protection, u
says Hiram M Stanley, in Outing. "As
he wistfully cast his eyes over the
desolate plain Of shinar he perceived
at great distance a dead thorn bush.
running thithef he crouched behind
it, and while still shivering he saw a
wild ass come by. And Adam cried
TO the beast to lie down alongside and
keep him warm. But the ass spake
out c'for asses sometimes spake in
those days, as since.'' saith the COM
mentatOr), and dendsd him for not
having a warm coat Of fur Where
upon Adam waxed wroth. and slew the
ass with piece Of the thorn tree. and
with teeth and nails stripping of the
ASS coat wrapped it around himself.
But toward noon, the sun growing
hot and a scorching wind arising
Adam conceived the happy thought OF
hanging the skin over the bush and
reposing in the shade thereof 1t was
done, the tent was invented and civ

COFFEE AS A STIMULANT.
Medical Auth GRITTY Declares 1t Is an
AntidOte for Alcohol and 9th
erwfse Beneficial.

One of the highest authorities among
medical publications, the London Lancet,
gives few words of advice and comfort
to the lovers Of coffee and says that this
most popular of all drinks is not harm
full.
AS an after-dinner drink 1t believes
coffee is distinctly beneficial. Coffee also
is an antidote for alcohol. The dyspep-
tic, it says. should not drink coffee or tea,
because both are injurious to weak stom-
achs.
AS q substitute for the hot drink, how
ever, coffee jelly is recommended. In
this form It can be taken into any stom-
ach without injury. provided there Is no
sunting Of the quantity Of coffee IN the
Jelly. 1t has cooling effect. assuages
the thirst and is generally beneficial.
Coffee. the Lancet declares, Is stimu-
liant, like alcohol, but, unlike alcohol, it
arouses muscular energy without the
collapse which follows alcoholic drinks
This Is likely to prove grateful informa-
ton to the thousande OF Americans who
think they cannot begin the day without
free indulgence tn coffee and often con-
sumo that beverage with each OF the

OUR RETURN TO NATURE.

The future historian Of American
fife and manners for the closing decades
Of the nineteenth century and the be-
ginning of the twentieth century, will
find an interesting theme In the renais-
sanee Of natural history, or the re-
turn to nature, which marks a distinct

lowed the congestion Of population in
cities, the increase in wealth, and the

Six-MOnths-OId Child in India Be-

of n Recent Governors.

Many of the people CT India are firm
believers in the doctrine of the trans
migration of souls. Of late cOnsidera-
BILE excitement has been caused there
by the strange story Of an incident
which recently occurred in the district
of Pegou. The natives there, says the
Chicago Chronicle, suddenly became
convinced that a 6-months-old child
was the reincarnation of the late Mr.
Tucker, superintendent Of the district
who was killed by bandits in 1894, and
that moment the unconscious infant
became the most important parsonage
in that part of Lhs country.
It was taken TO several places in
which Mr.. Tucker had lived, and, &C
cording to its attendants, it's conduct
showed clearly that 1t remembered all
the incidents of its former life.
Finally 1t was taken to the place
where Mr.. Tucker was murdered, and
the story goes that at sight OF the fatal
spot it trembled all over and almost
went into convulslons. Indeed, its
parents say that 1t would certainly
have died there il they had not huY.

A correspondent recently inquired as
TO. where she could set ''angleworm
oil'' and the editor Of this department
had to pass On the inquiry as conun-
drum that he could not solve, says the
Los Angeles Times. However, there
are very few questions that some of the
numerous readers Of this department
cannot answer. It 10, therefore, not
surprising to ind that no less than
seven answers have already been re-
celved to this correspondents question.

Monica:
81 noticed in the Care Of the Body
department to-day that some one from
Santa Monica asks about angleworm
oil, and that you say that you do not
know what it is. I will offer a short
story of an incident which happened
i'm nay aboyhood days IN Ohio. My folks
owned valuable horse, which skipped
on the ice and strained the tendons Of
one of it's hind legs so that it could
not put the heel On the ground. and
had to walk on its toe for several
months, when an old farmer told us to
rub 1t with angleworms, putting them
in bottles and hanging in the sun until
all the oil was tried out of them. Then
strain it and use as liniment. We
did this and it effected the desired re-
suits, and 1 will say that after that
We never were without this Oil, as it Is
good for so many strains and sprainS
and it no doubt will help the inquirer

Automobiles aad Safety.

Ample evidence Of the narrow margin
of safety In the powerful automobiles
is shown by the fact that in the Paris
Madrid race nearly all the big cars came
to grief through failure Of working
parts. The heat softened the metal in
the bearings. cylinder heads crooked,
rods bent, giving evidence that the ma
chinery was undex-proporioned and
overworked 1t is more than probable
that this disastrous race will prove use
full in showing that the limits Of safety,
either in construction or operation, can.
not be exceeded with impunity.

the raoss, pond lilies and other growth
have been almost entirely eaten up,
thus destroying the protection to
