Baby's Diagnosis.

New \ Ork Press.
Seated on bench in Central Park
a nurse girl was gently moving tc
and fro a perambulator in which was
a baby OF about fifteen months. At
the other end OF the bench was a
man whose prominent lower jaw was
adorned with a luxur;ant beard
which parted in the middle and curry
ed gracefully outward and upward
For several minutes the baby re-
gardcd the man and especially the
whiskers with grave attention. while
he looked at her with an air of lofty
condescension. At length a beautiful
smile overspread the little ones fea-
lures. Then, with her blue eyes still
fixed upon the whiskers, and kicking
up her tiny feet in an ecstacy of de-
light, she gurgled:
"Bow-wow! BoW-wow!"
A wave of color suffused the mans
face above the whiskers, and he
hitched uneasily in his seat. 1t was
an awkward situation, and to relieve
it the nurse girl patted the baby and
said:
mo, dearie, that isn't doggie."
The man remained to hear no more

The Key That Unlocks the Door to
Long Living.

The men of eighty-6ve and ninety
years of age are not the rotund well
OF age, but thin, spare men who live on

however, a man past middle age, will
occasionally eat too much or some

complishme1 hts, the pretensions and
the failures of the new town blended
in the product of human progress.
Each man fell into his place in the
community as though appointed there
to, and the eyes of all were ~ for
ward. To Franklin the DAYS and
months and years went by unpunctu-
ated, his life settling gradually into
the routine of an unhappy calm. He
neglected too much the social side of
life. and rather held to his old friends
than busted himself with the search
for new. Battersleigh was gone,
swiftly and mysteriously gone, though
with the promise to return and with
the reiteration of his advice and his
we'll wishes. Curly was gone-gone
up the Trail into far and mysterious
country, though he, too, promised to
remember Ellisville. and had given
hostage for his promise. His friends
of the Halfway House were gone, for
though he heard of them and knew
them to be prosperous, he felt him
self, by reason of Mary Ellen's deci-
sion, in propriety practically with
drawn from their personal acquain-
lance.
Because of his level common sense,
which is the main ingredient in the
success portion, he went easily into
the first councils of the community.
He made more and more money, since
at that time one of his position and
opportunities could hardly avoid doing
so. His place in the business world
was assured. He had no occasion for
concern.
For most men this would have been
prosperity sufficient; yet never did Ed
ward Franklin lie down with the long
breath of the man content; and ever
in his dreams there came the vague
reckoning of a hand still half unseen.
Haunting him with the sense of the
unfulfilled, the face of Mary Ellen
was ever in the shadow; of Mary
Ellen, who had sent him away forever;
of Mary Ellen, who was wasting, her
life on prairie ranch, with Iaught to

inspire and none to witness the flower
ing of her soul.
So much for the half-morbid frame
of mind due for the most part to- the
reflex of a body made sick by an ir-
regular and irrational life. This much,
too, Franklin could have established
of his own philosophy. Yet this was
not all, nor was the total so easily
to be explained away.
Steadily and with an insistence
somewhat horrible, there came to
Franklin's mind a feeling that this
career which he saw before him would
not always serve to satisfy him. Losing
no touch of the democratic loyalty to
his fellowmen, he none the less clear.
ly saw himself in certain ways be-
coming ineXOrably separated from his
average fellow-man. The executive
instinct was still as strong within him,
bur he felt it more creative, and he
lOnged for finer material than the
seamy side of mans petty strifes with
man, made possible under those artifi-
cial laws which marked mans COM
promise with Nature. Longing for the
satisfying, for the noble things, he
found himself irresistibly facing to-
ward the past, and irresistibly con-
WINGED that in that past, as in the
swiftly marching present, there might
be some lesson, not ignoble and not IN
comforting. Mortified that he could

he doubted at times his perfect sanity;
for though it seemed there was within
him the impulse to teach and to create,
he could not say to himself what or
how was to be the form, whether men
tai or material. of the thing created,
the thing typified, the thing which he
would teach.
OF such travail, of such mould, have

whether it is to be great artist or great
artisan that is to be born again.
To Franklin, dreaming as he woke
or slept, there sometimes waved a
hand, there sometimes sounded a
Voice, as that which of old summoned
the prophet in the watches of the
night. Neither in his waking nor his
sleeping hours could he call this spirit
into naturalization, however much he
longed to wrestle with it finally. 1t
remained only to haunt him vaguely
to join with the shade of Mary Ellen
the Cruel to set misery on a life which
he had thought happily assured.

Faithful Dons.

The faithfulness of the dog is well
known, though not appreciated as it
should be. Perhaps most faithful of
all the species is the Eskimo dog.
We learn the following about this
animal from the writings of Frederick
Schwatka, who made wonderful trip
on a sledge from Hudson Bay to the
Arctic Ocean. The sledges were drawn
by the dogs, and he started out With
sixty of them, returning with only
nineteen, all the rest dying of starva'
ton en- route. ..
Says Schwatka: =
They were, through all this terri
BILE time, perfect respecters of their
human allies, and the little children
used to go among them and play
with them by pelting them with toy
whips; yet the same dogs were starv-
ing, and should one of them die, his
comrades would eat him. l notice this
particularly, as some sensational writ
ers have tried to make their readers
believe that the Eskimo dogs are Ii
able to become dangerous fellows.
even to a powerfully built man, when
simply hungry, and to be worse than
wild beasts when ravenous. Any on
slaught of Eskimo dogs is unknown
among the natives where travelled.
1T was pitiable in the extreme to
see their sufferings, as they devotedly
helped us along-many of them up to
the very minute they had to be taken
from the harness and abandoned along
the road. AS they dropped out along
the way, we harnessed ourselves in
their places to the sledge traces, and
it was thus we were not compelled TO
leave certain parts of our load"

One morning the sun rose with a
swift bound into cloudless field The
air was mild, dead absolutely silent
and motionless. The wires along the
railway alone sang loudly, as though
in warning-a warning unfounded and
without apparent cause. Yet the sigh

the still air the smokes of the town
rose directly upright; and answering
to them faint, thin spires rose here
and there far out over the prairies, all
straight, answering, ominous, ter
rible. There was great hush, a
calm, pause upon all things. The
sky was blue and cloudless, but at
last it could not conceal the mockery
it bore upon it's face, so that when
men looked at it and listened to the
singing of the wires they stopped, and

The Summer Kitchen.

The kitchen woodwork should be as
simply finished as possible. No mold
ing to catch dust, no ornamentation
of any kind. White and green are the
coolest colors for the kitchen.
Perhaps the best thing is to paint
the walls so that they may be washed
and kept clean from the greasy smoke
of cooking.
Carpets in the kitchen are most I'M
desirable. The best covering, unless
of course, a hardwood floor is posi-
BILE, is a softly tinted linoleum. 1t
wears well and can be washed easily.
If the kitchen can be securely
locked away from the remainder OF
the house, it can be kept much cooler
during the summer by taking out the
windows and mailing screens over the
whole opening.
