Animals aud Pain,

Ascertained facts seem to show us
that by the lower forms of animal life
very little pain, as we understand the
word, can be felt at all. HOLSTERS, for
instance, will voluntarily deprive them
selves of their claws if suddenly alarm
ed by some such sound as that caused
by the firing OF heavy gun above
them. A crab, seized while feeding by
q greater and stronger, will continue
Its meal while being itself devoured.
A fish, torn and mangled by the hook.
will return in a moment or two to the
bait. with its appetite unimpaired.
A blindworm or a sand lizard, if un-
expectedly seized. will snap its body in
twain and glide away, none the worse
for the mutilation, to reproduce the
severed substance. 1t is hard, indeed,
In cases such as these to insist that
pain, in our sense of the term, can be
In any real degree endured.

All Planters Were Architects.


Very few of the old houses of the
south, except some of the Georgian
houses of Charler.on, which belong to
an earlier period than the white COL
umned houses of the early nineteenth
century, have deliberately decorated in
te"iors. The reason is not far to seek.
Except in the seacoast cities of the
south skilled labor was rare, and ar
chttectS were almost unknown. The
great majority of planters therefore
were compelled either to import their
architectural designs or draw them
themselves. Most of them preferred to
do the latter (as Thomas Jefferson pre-
ferred to draw his own plans for Mon
ticello) and to oversee personally the
construction of the houses
With this end in view almost all
men of means in the south prior to the
civil war Were students of architecture
and ready purchasers of such architec-
tural plates us We're published from
time to time To this day heavy vol
umes on Greek rchitecture-technical
works that only students would care
to own-are to be found as features of
such old family libraries as are still
preserved throughout the south-Mrs

Diseases Of the seasons.

Physicians say that certain diseases
follow the changing seasons with al
most clockwork regularity. Thus acute
rheumatism prevails from February
till April, inf1ammations of the lungs
from March till May, stomach and in
festival complaints in August and
cholera from August to October. On
this basis some hygienists classify dis
eases into summer, fall, winter and
spring diseases. This classification is
supported by many facts which show
that weather changes really exert pow
erful influences upon health and dis
ease. To cope successfully with these
changes and their harmful influences
daily exercise in the open air in all
kinds of weather and at all seasons OF
the year is the best preparation. This
toughens the system and is at once
prevention and cure.

Churches In Mexico.

One Of the strange things about The
churches of Mexico is that none Of
them is finished You may travel from
one end of Mexico to the other and
wherever YOU go you will find from
one to a half dozen workmen doing
something to every church They may
be putting on d spire there or bit OF
decoration here. but as soon as one
part of the building is apparently CON-
pleted they go to work on another, and,
what is more there is no likelihood
that the churches will ever be finished
until the laws are changed.
Since the present government came
into power the church Of Mexico has
not been allowed to own property, and
such property as it acquired must be
held in the names of individuals and is
subject to taxation. However, no taxes
have to be paid ON an unfinished build
ing, and that is why the churches Of
Mexico are never completed.
