Matrimonial Arithmetic.

"My son." said the old gentleman
In his fatherly way, you have a
good deal to learn about matrimonial
arithmetic. AS you say, your salary
is sufficient for two, and you think
you clinch the argument when you
add that one and one make two.
That's all right in business, but mat
rimonial arithmetic is one of the most
confusing things that ever happened.
In the first place, the minister takes
the two of you and makes you one.
That would seem to make it easier
for you, but the history of the world
shows that, figuring matrimonially.
n and one make any old number up
to twelve or sixteen, and l believe
there are records that show a higher
total. In view of this, can you make
the requisite showing with yoIr pres
ent salary and future prospects,"

Bird Life In Hawaii

From some Of the open pastures ris-
rs the. song of the skylark, which was
imported from New Zealand; skylarks
increase in number, but not very quick
ly. The voice of the Chinese turtle
dove-the mourning dove, it is called
is heard in the land quite near to
the valley homes; also the upward
whirr of the Mongolian and the jap
anese pheasant. Grouse and quail =
were there until lately, but the latter
have now betaken themselves to
heights of 5000 to 1000 feet, whittier
the marauding mongoose cannot fol-
low them. l asked a young niece of
my own who lately left Honolulu
what birds visited their grounds
three miles up the valley road, and
she tells me, Java sparrows, rice
birds and those squawking mynahs.
The last eat up all our young figs
and grapes, unless we throw the ten
mis- nets over them. The natives call
the mynah, manu- al pilau-that is,
bird who eats filth" He does some
good, then, as we'll as i'll.
That watching of birds which is es-
sential to a knowledge of their life
history has indeed been impossible to
most visitors to Hawaii. And now
that annexation is giving an impetus
to the development of the country's
resources, the inevitable destruction of
its forests, ever if the birds themselves
do not perish with the trees hat shs-
tered and fed them, is driving them
up to still more inaccessible heigfTts
and wooded depths between the sharp
volcanic peaks, which will battle the

WHEN NATURE IS REMIsa
Seemingly Forsets to Endow Human
Beings With Needed Faculties.

Nature mods undoubtedly at times,
as in the ase of the child born with

Infant was born and lived three weeks

sands of us are color blind, others
have no musical sense. And there are
many Laura Bridgmans, many Helen
Kellers. The queen of Roumania has
or had at her court in personal at.
tendance upon herself the daughter
Of a blind nobleman. She could
neither hear nor speak, and had to
be taught to communicate by holding
the throat of a speaker and initiating
the vibration produced by the effort.
But what a grudge against nature
must such a one as Lyon Playfair
discovered ever feel!
Here was a girl who was blind,
deaf, dumb and could neither taste
nor smell. One might be pardoned
for asking If such a life was worth
living. Yet there was a beautiful
lesson In such an existence, as the
great warm heart of Playfair discov.
cred. He sent her a pretty finger ring
and the poor mite replied in this pitt
fully pretty letter: Dear Sir Lyon
Piayfair: Sir Lyon Playfair sent Edith
ring in box. Edith thank Sir Lyon
Playfair for ring. Sir Lyon Playfair
come to see Edith. Good-by. Edith"
During his first visit the child had
closely examined his hands, wrists,
arms and face, her touch being mar.
velously accurate. A year later he

PAINTS OF THE ANCIENTS.

Paints as employed in the arts,

not known to the people Of ancient
times. Pigments they had in ahund.
ance, but the art of mixing them so
as to make them enduring had not
been discovered. Nowadays when the
artisan is applying varnish he puts up
a sign warning passers by to beware
OF paint, which shows that by the
average man varnish is regarded as
a species Of paint.
The two are, indeed, closely related.
but it will surprise most people to
learn that. while varnish is a product
known in very remote ages, paint as
used to-day is of comparative recent
origin.
The paint used in Babylon and Min.
even and in Pompeii was composed Of
pigments mixed not with oil but with
water, to which had been added a
little glue. egg albumen or perhaps
sometime c~asein, which is albumi-
nous matter from milk, or the gluten
from cereal grains. Glue, however,
was the most universal grinding ma.
terial.
Such paints are now known as fres.
co paints or water colors. They have
not gone out of use, as is illustrated

There is more Catarrh in this section OF the
country than all other diseases put together,
and until the last few years was supposed to
be incurable. Fora great many years doctors
pronounced it a local disease and prescribed
local remedies, and by constantly failing to
cure with local treatment, pronounced Il in
durable. Science has proven Catarrh to be a
constitutional disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure
on the market. 1t is taken internally in doses
from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. 1t acts direct
ly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system. They offer one hundred dollars for
any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars
and testimonials. Address F. j. CHENEY &
