EVOLUTION OF THE ORANGE.
heAched It~ PreSent State of Per-
fection Through the Improving
Touch of Americans.

For centuries the orange was the ex.
elusive possession OF the Latin, Mon.
golian and Malay races; then 1t was
carried 20 India, then to America and
fell under the improving touch OF the
Anglo-Saxou. Bringing together the
Incompatible Jaffa, as seeding from
Palestine. the Melitensis from Malta,
and others, he budded and grated in
Florida until the fruit was brought.
through blending and selection, to the
highest pitch of perfection. as It
seemed, says the Florida Times Union.
But strangely eaough. there came
out Of the province OF Bolivia. Brazil,
still another seedling-one of those
consummate blossoms Of perfection
through centuries OF waiting on ma.
ture by the Latin which the American
aeeomplishes by cross-pollination in
five years-the Bahia or navel orange.
II had reached the acme Of quality not
only in favor, but also In It's attribute
OF seedlessness.
Now, is not that a proper food for
hitf hAAthA4F mani Il Afhai WHICH naN
no progeny, nor future, no possible
function except as minister to him ?
The orange has been called the uni
yersal fruit OF commerce, and SO II IL,
for its aroma carries Il unharmed, the
acrid juices OF its peel protect IL
against insects, lis toughness endures
long transportation, and everywhere
on earth men eagerly seek its subtle
charm and its exquisite nectar.
The orange Is not strictly n food. but
Il Is greater; Il Is the connecting link
to higher status. the guarantee and
preseryer Of health and Of intellect.
The gross Kormandizing on meats, the
curse OF drink. burning the brain,
hardening its delicate eonyolutions-
these are the fountains Of Ills innumer-
able; the pangs Of gout the sudden
and black terror OF apoplexy. But this
gentle and benign pharmaeopeia Of
nature, these fruits with their won
derful blending Of corrective acids and
cordlals, are the ready medieament OF
the ultimate man. As We advance In
horticulture and develop other seed
less and perfect fruits We shall APP
proach the perfect regimen Of high
er humanity.

SEA FLOWERS AS PETS.
IHterssting Thing About the Queer
Little Creatures known a.
AHemones.

The queerest pets in the world are
kept in a beautiful row of clear.
flashing, round glass tanks on an up
per floor of n large aquarium. ~
you approach the tanks you behold
glowing little groups of color and
artistic blending and mingling OF fan
tastic weeds and shining stones.
Then when you peer into the tanks
you see what at first seem to You
just like particularly handsome and
gorgeous flowers growing all over
the little rockerles. Some OF the
flowers look like dainty pink and
white and yellow and purple and
crimson dahlias. Others look almost
like daisies with lacelike petals. 9th
ers look like little star flowers, all
pure white and perfect. These flow-
ers are of all sizes, from tiny ones
barely large enough to see TO great
ones almost large enough to All a
saucer.
But II you will watch these flow
ers" for few minutes you will jump
suddenly. for all at once you will
see one move Its petals. Then you
will see another and another do Il.
Slowly the petals unfold or contract.
with little jerking movements, some-
times twlning in the water like
snakes.
Tap smarily on the table on which
the tanks stand. and like lightning
all the petals will have disappeared.
These sea flowers are really not flow.
ers at all. They are living creatures,
known ms sea anemones.
For many years, says Answers.
Prof Spencer, Of the New York
aquarium. has tended aud fed them.
aud the little animated flowers aetu.
ally have come to know him. When
he feeds them he puts little bit Of
fish on the end Of iong-pointed
stick and puts II carefully down into
the water until II Is near the ane-
none. II did not take long for the
beautiful things TO understand IL.
and whereas al FIRST they used IN
withdraw their petals and shut up
tightly when the stick approached,
now they twine gracefully and
stretch their dainty arms out Us far
as they can go in order to reach II.

MODERN CLOTHING TOO THICK
Respiratory Action of the
Skin and Excretion.

An evil effect Of modern clothing
is that by it's thickness II interferea
with the excreting and respiratory
action of the skin. The work of ex-
erection Is thus either thrown upon
other organs already oyertaxed or
upon some tissue which the body Sc
lects as a possible medium for elm
ination. Thus II Is likely that ca.
tarrh Is always caused by the inac-
tiyity OF the skin The matter thus
left in the body through the mac
tiyity of the skin seeks egress by
means of the mucous membrane,
which is merely kind Of internal
skin, and thus we have catarrh, says
the Healthy Home. People need pro-
lection in cold weather, but they do
not need their thick clothes in their
warm houses. One of the hardest
things 10 accomplish in our change
able climate is 10 remove winter
weight clothes nt the proper time
without the usual ensuing colds and
other disorders. Unless exposed TO
all weathers in some outdoor EN-.
ployment, the better way is 20 wear
light or medium-weight undergar-
ments and suits the year round. de-
pending on heavy outside wraps 10
protect the system during outside
exposure in cold or windy weather.

THE DOGS OF LABRADOR.
-here Has Never De~n a Case OF Hy-
drophobia Iknown in the His-
tory OF the country.

II Is remarkable fact that while
virtually every resident of Labrador
has been bitten by the savage dogs
Of that region, there has never been
case of hydrophobia there, says the
Baltimore American. This fact is at
tested by DIR. Grenfell, the sunerins
tendent of the English mission there,
who has now spent ten years On tho
coast and treated over $4,000 patients.
He cannot explain this singular cir
cumstance; II may be due to climatic
conditions, but 1t is more probable
the result of the wolfish strain in
the breed Of the dogs. The extraor-
dinary part Of II is that such con-
dition should have allied with the
most absolute sayagery on the part
of the animals. They are the fiercest
of any brutes trained to be of sery-
ice to mankind; they win attack any
thing they believe weaker than them
selves, and they are only kept in sub
lection by the unceasing use of the
lash.
They are cross between the
wolves and the earlier Newfoundland
dogs brought there, and by this time
almost all but the wolfish cha. acter-
istics are eliminated. The coast folk
find them indispensable, yet live in
fear OF them. No man ventures
abroad without his whip; every wom-
an carries a stout club; IL Is death
TO child TO get among them. Only
last month the little son of the
agent of the Hudson Bay company's
post at Sandwich inlet was attacked
by these brutes. Within minute they
he'd inflicted over 60 bites on the
child, and but for the devotion of a
pet retriever dog and the lads moth
er promptly flying 10 the rescue, he
must have been literally torn to
pieces. He was taken TO the hos
pital at Indian Harbor, where he IL
making q quick recovery. This was
a more fortunate outcome than was
the case at Cartwright last year. A
child wandered from home and when
the distracted mother few to where
a pack Of angry dogs were ravening,
she found nothing but the bones OF
her offspring. A little girl was so
badly mangled by them at Punch
bowl last year that she never recov-
cred.
Every year brings It's quota of
these mishaps, while there are scores,
II not hundreds, OF cases of adults
being bitten. II is impossible TO
keep sheep, goats or poultry on the
coast because Of TIC brutes, and their
determination would have been et-
fected long ago were II not for the
fact that they are the only means
by which communication Is kept up
in winter. There are no horses on
the coast, as there is nothing to feed
them. Teams Of dogs, attae.ed TO
sledges, are the means Of travel.
With them the settlers go from har-
Dor TO harbor, make hunting trips
20 the interior, haul frewood from
the forests and convey peltries TO the
Hudson Ray company's posts. These
dogs play the same part in the econ
omy of this region as they do In the
Arctics, and there the characteristics
are the same, though we do not hear
Of such instances of their savagery.

PAID BANDIT TO DEPART.

Country Of TroubIeaoms and

Enrique Mesa, the notorious Cuban
bandit, worthy successor Of Manuel

outlaw, Harry Tracy, has left Cuba
for consideration Of $1,000.
Masa had for some time been q

REFORMS IN THE BEDROOM,
Erroru which Are COMMONLY msa
In the MakinG-up of Beds, And
other Details.

We will be a healthier and happiesl
race when the double bed IL bg

stead, with a mattress that can DO
easily aired and kept clean, Is the
bed that ought 10 be generally used.
The bed covering par excellence Is a
lightweight blanket that can be fire.
quently wished and kept soft and
white. Tucking the bedclothes tight
ly In is another popular error. The
practice Of making up a bed almost
air-tight is as unhealthful as IL Is un-
clean, says Gogd Health.
The bed should not be placed
against the wall, but should be ac-
cessible on both sides. The old
fashion of placing the bed in an al
cove, which cannot be ventilated SO
well as large room, is considered
TO be an unhygienic one. An excel
lent reason why bed should not bo
placed against the wall is that the
person who sleeps at the rear of the
bed is likely TO have his face, dur
ing sleep, so near the wall that his
breath, striking the wall, will be re-
breathed again.
So large portion Of existence is
necessarily spent in sleep that the
location of the bed, the covering and
bedding, and the furniture Of the
bedroom should be the subjects OF
consideration and thought. AS IL Is,
too often this is the last room con-
sidered. In many families good
sized closet, with no opening into the
outer cir, is considered good enough
for a bedroom. Not only should the
bedroom be thoroughly ventilated
and exposed TO the rays Of the sun,
but the bed clothing should be taken
off and hung In the air and sun for
several hours before the bed IL
made up.
