Keeping up Your Courage,

There is first the belief that we are
well and capable of continuing so.
That is nothing more than faith in our
own human powers. 1t is faith that
every self respecting person should
have. DO not abuse the organs of the
body. and then there will he no neces-
sity of thinking of them and wonder
ing If they are working all right. BY
dwelling too much upon some weak
ness we can always aggravate it
through nervous reaction. This in some
cases can become such confirmed
habit that serious troubles will be in
duced. There are many patients in the
world today who might be up and
around. enjoying good health. If they

been called out OF town. and in his
place In the pulpit there sat "A beard

today one OF the most powerful preach

from college, was unknown then. and

stood watching this dispersal from

and yet there sat on his youthful face

Eusenie and the Cholera.

When Napoleon Ill. was AT the ze-
NTH of his power there was a terrible
outbreak of cholera in France. Every
day the Empress Eugene visited the
hospitals to do what she could by SUI
perintendence and example to forward
the noble work of allay1ng the suffer-
ings of the stricken. One morning Il
parish priest rushed into the ward
where the empress WAS ministering to
a dying man.
"Oh, your majesty said the priest,
two hours ago my curate was break
fasting with me, and now he is dead!'
The empress smiled calmly. THAT is
WELL" said she.
"Well?" echoed the priest.
Yes, 1t is well. When once cholera
becomes as violent as this is ii ceases" :"
The empress was right. From that
day the plague abated.

Progress Club.

The Progress club met "Wednesday
November Ii. at the home of Mrs.
Hanna.
Mrs. Wood had charge of the af-
ternoon and made an excellent chair
man. Romola, one Of George Ell
lot S greatest novels. was reviewed
very thoroughly. She was ably as
sisted by Mesdames Elliott, Whitney.
Carrithers, Wright. Gillespie and
Mosher. The discussion was very
interesting from a historical stand
point as Mrs. Wood had provided
maps and charts of the city of Flor
ence, where the plot of Romola was
laid, and with pictures from the old
masters. which adorn the walls of
the churches and cloisters.

Indians. Nose breathing!

An English scientist thinks it unnec-
sssary that children should be taught
to breathe through the nostri.s only
and maintains that they cannot do SO
under the stress of active eNeruon
London Hospital thinks otherwise.
Among The North American aborigines
at time when they We're capable of
extraordinary physical eNertion the
precept TO shut your mouth was en-
forced upon the young by tie most Sc
we're discipline.
Catlin founded upon his experiences
among the American tribes curious
book upon the subject. After depicting
open mouthed men and boys IN every
variety of usliness and stupidity, he
says that he refrains from giving illus
trations .,of the fairer sex and would
only remind them, while counseling
them to be careful about closure of the
mouth ut night, that idiots asleep can
not he angels awake"
The scientist declares that not all
nostrils are sufficiently wide to permit
of breathing being conducted through
them to the exclusion of the mouth,
but it is certain that nothing would
tend more than breathing through
them to promote their development.

eueerIy Procured Evidence.

Many years ago ship was chased
at sea on the suspicion that she was
SLAYER. During the pursuit her cap
tain dropped something overheard.
When overhauled the old tub was tax
en- to Port Royal for trial. There was
nothing on board to sustain the charge
of slave dealing, and there seemed ev-
cry likelihood of its owner recovering
damages for Illegal seizure and deten-
ton. But another ship had passed in
the night in the wake of the others.
She had witnessed the chase and fight,
but had stopped to catch shark by
the way. In the stomach of the shark
the sailors found Il tin box. In the box
We're the papers of the fugitive vessel.
These proved her to be SLAYER of the
most unequivocal character, and upon
their evidence she was condemned and
contiscated.

Quaint scotch Custom.

Natives of the northeast coast of
Scotland observe curious custom at
funerals. After the burial service the
coffin Is carried outside the house and
placed upon the two chairs on which II
had rested within doors. AS soon as
the pallbearers lift up their burden and
begin their journey to the graveyard
these chairs are ut once thrown sharp
ly Oh their backs. In this position they
are kept until the interment has taken
place, when they are taken indoors
again. Any attempt to place the chairs
on their legs or to take them in before
the proper time is at once frustrated by
the relatives of the dead.
