 Human nature is not always at its highest level, and heroic sacrifices arise only from heartfelt motives.--Sir George Trevelyan in "The American Revolu- tion."
 Do not attempt to do thing unless you are sure of yourself; but do not re- linquish 1t simply because some one else is not sure of you.-Stewnrt Edward White in ''The Forest"

Against Odds.

A rowing contest took place some time ago against crews composed of the single and married members of the club concerned. One of the young fell lows who was to be in the "single" boat was asked on the morning of the race what sort of chance his boat stood.
 "None at all," he promptly replied. 'If we win, it will only be by fuke." |"
 "How's that?"
 "Why," was the reply of the bach. elor, "don't you see we've got to row against the tied?"-Cassel's London Journal.

HEALTH IS WELL GUARDED.
Substantial Progress In Sanitation Ia
 Being Made of Late Years.

eubstantint Progress In Sanitation Ia
 Being Made of Late Years.
 People hear SO much about health institutes nowadays that they are apt to be little skeptlcal as to their efll. cacy, and to regard them as largely money-making arrangements.
 In England almost all matters con. corning the public health are treated at institutes, like the British Sanitary Institute, for instance and every pub. lie man thinks 1t his duty to patronize 1t.
 At late meeting of the institutes the question was raised as to what had been accomplished by these insti. tutes, and 1t was found that since pub. lie health became d science at the be ginning of the late queens reign the average life of man has been ill. creased by three years and that of a woman by five years.
 That the doctors do know something Is evidenced by the fact that thirty years ago typhoid fever killed 374 peo pie out of every 100000 in Great Britain. To-day, with an enormously increased population, 1t kills bare 100 per 100000. Typhus, which sixty years ago struck down another 300 per 100000. has been literally stamped out by sanitation. Statistlcians con- pute that the London County Council has saved 10000 lives, mostly infants since its creation.
 In the days of Good Queen Bess" the death rate was so per 1000 per annum. Deaths from fever have fallen by s5 per cent, typhoid by O. scarlet fever by S1. and consumption by 4j per cent. From 1861 to 1865 scarlet fever killed 9S2 persons per 1,000,CO0; 1t now barely carries off 100.
 The death rate in consumption Is also declining. During 1S61-65 death by consumption claimed 2,526 persons yearly out of every 100000 living. To-day peter acquaintance with the laws of health has cheated death of half the harvest of 1S61-65 from this disease.
 So that the various institutes of med. icine and sanitation do much good even if no more than to induce better modes of living.-BostOn Globe.
