Drinking Before Meals.

In the morning the stomach con-
tains a considerable quantity of mu-
Gus, spread over and adherent to it's
walls. If food enters at this time the
tenacious mucus will interfere to some
extent with the direct contact between
the food and the stomach necessary to
provoke the secretion of gastric juice.
A glass OF water taken before break
fast passes through the stomach into
the small intestines in a continuous
and uninterrupted flow. It partially
distends the stomach: it thins and
washes out most of the tenacious
mucus; it increases the fulness Of the
capillaris Of the stomach directly if
the water is warm, and indirectly, in
a reactiOnary way, if it is cold. Care
must be taken not to take cold water
when the circulation, either local or
general, is such as to make reaction
improbable. We should not take it
in an advanced age nor in the feeble,
whether old or young, nor should it
be taken in local troubles like gastric
catarrh. In these cases it is best to
give warm or hot water. The addition
Of salt is very Observation-Disclosures

The bank of Becker was entered by
robbers early last Friday. They blew
the safe with dynamite and secured

from town on a handcar they secured
by breaking into the section foreman S

about milewith this, and abandoned
it, taking to the woods. A few nights
before an attempt was made to rob the
bank at Ogilvie, but the alarm was

Miss Clara Johnson of Morris. CON-
mitted suicide at the home of her
mother at Johnson's Mill, five miles
northeast of the city last week. She
went to the barn and hanged herself
from rack manager while the rest Of
the family thought she was doing the
milking. She was thirty-six years OF
age and was the daughter of Mrs.
Henry Johnson. The father had died
few months ago and minor differ
ences arose over the disposition Of the
estate. Dependency caused by
brooding over these troubles is as
signed as the cause Of the suicide.
The attorney general has begun quo
warranto proceedings in the district
court to have the incorporation Of the
village of Otter Tail declared null and
void. The specific ground on which
the action is brought is that a part Of
the land included in the village limits
does not adjoin the plated portion
and it is charged the incorporation of
the village Was simply a scheme on the
part of the townsite promoters to COM
pei farmers to assist in paying taxes
for village improvements. There are
twelve large farms incorporated in
the village limits, which include six
square miles.

JAMS AND JELLIES.
How They First "GOt Among the
COmmOnalty' I'm Scotland.


In Cats Annals OF the PARISH
the Rev. Micah Balwhidder quantity
chronicles the events of his district in
Scotland about the year 1850. In the
course of these records he says:
II should not in my notations forget
to mark new luxury that got among
the commonalty at this time. BY the
opening Of new roads and by our
young men sailing to the West Indies
heaps of sugar were brought home,
while many among the cabbages in
their yards had planted groset and ber-
~ bushes, which two things happen
ing together, the fashion to make jam
and jelly, which hitherto had been only
known in the kitchens Of the gentry,
came to be introduced into the vii
lage.
''All this, however, was not without
a plausible pretext, for it was found
that jelly was an excellent medicine
for a sore throat and jam a remedy
as good as London candy for a cough
or a cold or shOrtness of breath. In
the berry time there was no end to
the borrowing of her brass pan, which
occasioned a great fasherie to Mrs.
BalWhidder."

In a small way oil paper is used for

many is this done on large scale
The florists and market gardeners in
the district of Frankfort use what they
call "fensterpappe" in great quaint
ties for their greenhouses. The paper
is a strong tough manila.
There is no difficulty or secret about
its preparation or use The paper is
nailed to light wooden frames and
painted again and again with boiled
inseed oil until it is so saturated that
the last coat forms a smooth, glisten-
ing surface like varnish. This rem

easily broken and, on the whole, is a

HUMAN BRAINS.
The Difference Between Those OF
the Male and Female

AAC NN0Ac aAU rcmu1C.
The female brain in human creatures
is smaller than that of the male and
it is also lighter. The difference in
weight is considerable The average
mans brain is between four and
five ounces heavier than the average
woman's. The reason, it may be said,
is that the woman herself is smaller
than the man in size and weight. That
accounts partly for the difference, but
not entirely.
The diminished size and weight of the
brain are said to be fundamental sex
ual distinction in the human Species
1t is not peculiar to civilized men and
women, but is found universally
among savages, wherever sufficient OBJ
servations have been made
There is said to be also difference
Of the compared brains. The occipital
lobes, which preside chiefly over the
physical functions Of the organism,
are declared to be more voluminous in
the female than in the male, a physio-
logical fact which is contrary to COM
mon belief.
1t appears to be unquestionable that
in purely intellectual endowment the
man is superior to the woman On the
other hand, in the equally noble emo
tional capacity the woman in superior
to the man. Home Advocate.

Korean Character.

None of the Asiatics seem more
characterless than the Koreans. They
are as distinct in type from the jap
anese as Moors from Germans. The
Korean spends all his time on the
street, always dresses in white,
whether he is handling coal or digging
ditch, never washes his body and
his clothes only rarely. He looks at
anything out of his monotonous
routine with dull, preoccupied curl
osity? They are race asleep, that

4 Moneyiess Monarch.

The credit of Servia in Europe
stands at the present moment at the
lowest ebb. Wherever King Peter
turns to obtain money with which to
establish the stability OF his throne
he is unable to obtain it.
Driven to desperation, a representa-,
tive of the Servian Government called
at the branch Office in Vienna Of the
Gresham Life Insurance Company
with a view to obtaining a loan on
the security of the kings life. His ef-
forts, however, were unsuccessful.
The unfortunate representative OF
the discredited monarch had made
the rounds not only of all the banks
in Vienna. but also the private mil
lionaira money lenders, in a vain en-
deavor to obtain a loan, and the fail
ure of his fast effort to obtain $780,
900 on the frail pledge OF the kings
life was the last straw.
It will be remembered that King
Peter sent Prince Arsene to Paris,
hoping that his influence would obtain
for him monetary aid; but the banks
refused to accede to his request, and
he was obliged to appeal without sue
cess, to some well-known millionaires.
