VALUE OF BABY'S CRY.

Lungs.

1T Helps to Make a Healthy Pair OF
Lungs.
The early cry, which is painfully try
ing to some young mothers, especially
to nervous one, becomes less distress
ing if she stops to think that the lungs,
never having been used, need exercise
in order to make them strong. For the
first three months the infant is too
weak, even with fair amount of cry
ing, to develop the lungs more than
one-third their normal capacity, and
that these organs cannot be considered
perfect until they are inflated to their
of fair allowance of crying A year
of simple breathing would not accom-
| plish as much toward developing the
lungs as a moderate amount of crying
each day for a month. 1t is the deep
| inhalation, such as accompanies a good
strong. Healthful infants cry normal
ly, and they should be allowed to do
SO a portion of each day. When the
cry is whining or continuous it is usu-
ally caused by overndulgence of some
kind, or by mistakes, such as handling
the baby, when he is more comfortable
left alone. Too much entertaining
causes nervousness and cold extremi-
ties, which make necessary too many
wraps or too hot room; this results in
discomfort and weakness and lack of
fresh air. Sleeping in a bed with older

Structural Changes in Man.

Recent researches have furnished
some startling facts regarding changes
which man is at present undergoing
physically. 1t is believed that man
was formerly endowed with more teeth
than he now possesses. Abundant evil
dence exists that ages and ages ago hui
man teeth were used as weapons of de-
Tense. The practice Of eating our food
cooked and the disuSe of teeth as weap-
ons are said to be responsible for the
degeneration that is going on. In an
cient times a shOrt-sighted soldier or
day a whole nation is afflicted with de-
fective vision. 1t is almost certain
that man once possessed a third eye,
by means of which he was enabled to
see above his head. The human eyes
formerly regarded the world from the
two sides of the head. They are even
now gradually shifting to a more for
ward position. In the dim past the ear
flap was of great service in ascertain
ing the direction of sounds, and oper-
ated largely in the play of the fea-
lures But the muscles of the ear
have fallen into disuse, for the fear
of surprise by enemies no longer eX-
lists. Again, our sense of smell is
markedly inferior to that of savages
That it is still decreasing is evidenc-
ed by observations of the olfactory
organ

The Parental Catfish

THE catfish" said an angler, SIS
the only fish l know that seems to
have any affection for its young. 9th
er fish disregard their young altogeth-
er-will even eat them at times-but
not so with the catty.' The first time
| discovered this good trait was last
summer l was angling in a mill dam,
and in the clear water | saw a host
Of little catfish, accompanied by two
adults The adults-husband and wife,
no doubt-watched over the babies
with anxious care. They darted in
this direction and in that, keeping the
coast clear, and if a stranger fish ap-
preached they ruffled up and fought
it off like lions. They did thing that
indicated great intelligence in them
when they saw me. Happening to
glance up and catch my eye, they
feared that | meant mischief, and in
stantly they sank down to the bottom
and thrashed the mud about with
their tails, thus creating an OPAQUE
cloud wherein their young and they
were invisible. Since that time | have
often seen catfish with their young
There have been two adults in each
case to look after the small fry. and
in the presence of some great danger
the opaque cloud of mud has always
been drawn about the brood. "-Phila-
