 of Their Parents.

have told before of the cubs that were born to the Vixen and Sprite which l keep in a cage in my yard, and now will tell something of the youngsters whose first few weeks of life gave to me an interesting study.
 For the first few days after the young foxes were born, the vixen never left them, save for a few moments now and then, when she wanted food or water She had a ravenous appe- tite, and ate great deal of meat. The Sprite. 'on the other hand. seemed to live chiefly on air, for l could not ob- serve that he ate mouthful. He was just as eager to get the food, but, in stead of devouring it, he set it down on the ground in front of him, and wagging his tail, raised his hand for more When he found that he had re- ceived all that was coming to him, he would pick it up, piece al time. un- til his mouth would hold no more, and then he would run over to the den, put his head inside, and make the clucking sound which I have men, toned before, as though calling his puppies to the feast Then, finding no response, he would take away the mea,, dig a hole, and bury it. And he never tried to take away piece of meat which the vixen had secured. as he often had done before the puppies ar rived, but when the vixen tried ta take away any of his food. he tried to prevent her, seemingly that he might offer it 10 the youngsters in the den After he had buried 1t, often saw the vixen dig it up and eat it.
 The only food which The Sprite' reserved for himself was the candy which we gave him now and then. The temptation 10 eat a caramel. 1t seemed beyond his power to resist. and he would sit with closed eyes and

Tn Society.

A woman in society is obliged to keep late hours. She must attend receptions and balls She seldom allows herself a quiet evening at home. Her whole time is taken up in keeping engagements or entertaining in her own home.
 Her system becomes completely run down as a consequence. She soon finds herself in a condition known as sys- temc catarrh. This has also been called catarrhal nervousness.
 If every society woman could know the value of Peruna at such time if they could realize the inyigorating, strenethening effect that Peruna would have. how much misery could be avoided
 Letters from society women all over the United States testify to the fact that Peruna is the tonic for run down, depleted nervous system.

The Japanese Nose.

In Japan the nose is the only feature which attracts attention The nose
 determines t"e beauty or ugluae5s CT the face, according as it is big or small. This is probably due to the fact that difference in noses consti- tntes about the only distinction be- t cen one Japanese face and another. The eyes are invariably black. the cheek bones are high and the chin re eeding In Japan a woman who has a huge probescis is always great beauty and a reigning belle. There are few large noses among the na- tives, and luckily is he or she upon whom nature layishes one In all Japanese pictures representing the supposedly beautiful woman the art ist invariably improves on nature by depicting this feature as abnormally devloped.

Corn, Corn. Corn.

Were the corn of seven states load sd on wagons. 40 bushels to the load, and placed so the heads of the horses would come just to the rear endboard of the preceding wagon, and 1t were possible for this line of march to cover the land and sea. an average years crop from these seven corn growing states would make a com plete belt of corn wagons six times around the world.
 Place the crop of 1902 in cars hold ing 500 bushels each, and allow 40 feet for car and coupling, and we would have continuous freight train 3S.37S miles long
 After considering these figures, one readily believes that, in the list of cereals. corn stands first in point of acreage, yield and yalue.-Four.Track News.

One of the common symptoms of cof- spoil what should be restful sleep. A man who found the reason says:
 Formerly l was a slave to coffee. l was like morphine fiend, could not sleep at night, would roll and toss in my bed and when I did get to sleep was disturbed by dreams and hobgob- lins, would wake up with headaches and feel bad all day, so nervous l could not attend to business. My writing looked like bird tracks, I had sour belchings from the stomach, indiges- tion, heartburn and palpitation of the heart. constipation, irregularity of the kidneys. etc.
 Indeed, began to feel 1 had all the Troubles that human flesh could suffer but when friend advised me to leave off coffee l felt as if he had insulted me. l could not bear the idea, it had such hold on me and refused to be- lieve it the cause.
 But it turned out that no advice was ever given at a more needed time for I finally consented to try Postum and with the going of coffee and the coming of Postum all my troubles have gone and health has returned. l eat and sleep well now, nerves steadied down and I write fair hand (as you can seel, can attend to business again and rejoice that 1 am free from the monster Coffee" Name given by Postum Co.,, Battle Creek, Mich.
