manner of sewing uses up thread is
astonishing.
"The woman never does anything
OF that sort. She takes in just
enough cloth and no more, and SO
gets over as much ground with short
thread as q man does with a long
one.
"But the specific advantages of the
short thread over the long one are
many and great. There is less liza.
bility of short thread kinking
there is less likelihood of the short
threads blight catching on a fold or
bunch of the cloth.
"The arm of the sewer doesn't have
to be swung so far in drawing the
short thread through after the needle,
and so the sewing requires less physi-
cal exertion. Finally, and greatest
advantage of all, by sewing with a
short thread more work can be ac-
complished in given time.
$50 as between the long thread, or
mans way, and the short thread, or
woman's way OF sewing, there can be
no doubt which is the better"

A series OF experiments has been
tried by the school authorities in
South Germany to test the faculty
OF observation as it is exercised by
boys and girls. A man dressed as an
ordinary workman, and with ordinary
features, was placed in . room by
himself. Glasses Of girls of different
ages were sent through the room
All that the teacher told them va.
that they we're to 60 into the room
through one door and out through
another. When they returned to
their class-rooms they were asked to
describe the man in the room. Nearly
80 per cent. OF the girls confined their
attention to the mans clothes; the
others described both clothes and
features. The same experiment, when
tried with boys, revealed the fact that
nearly 70 per cent. of them confined
their attention to the mans features
the remainder to both features and
clothes.

Fruit, to be really valuable as an arti-
Gle of diet, should be ripe, sound, and
in every way of good quality, and, if
possible, it should be eaten raw. In
stead of eating a plate OF ham or eggs
and bacon for breakfast, most people
would do far better if they took some
grapes, pears or apples-fresh fruit, as
long as it is to be had, and after that
they can fall back on stewed plums.

formed an important item in their
breakfast, women would generally feel
brighter and stronger, and would have

fruit is gold in the morning and lead

be gold at both times, but it should be
eaten on an empty stomach and not as
