dts ALI Qead.V

A physician recently related an Incl
dent which had come under his OBJ
servation showing the aversion a GER
dead chickens. On being seated at a
g table upon which was an uncarved
chicken, he cried out in evident dis
tress, "It's all dead, mamma! I must
have hurted it," and he could scarcely
be persuaded to remain at the table
until the dead creature was carved
past recognition.
Children are naturally tender and
sympathetic, not only toward each
other, but also solicitous for the well
fare of the lower animals. The parents
of this child will probably congratulate
themselves when his tender nature be-
comes so calloused that the sight of a
dead animal being devoured will seem
to him entirely consistent, and will no
longer excite his pity.
Many Of the boys in the stock yard
districts Of our large cities are further
advanced in education in this line, for
they consider it rare amusement to
torment the live stock before they are
unloaded from the stock cars. One
method is to poke them with red-hot
irons until the animals give vent to
the most piteous outcries.
The barbarous custom Of college
hazing is another manifestation of
this same spirit of cruelty, which,
when implanted early enough in the
child's mind and then carefully fos-
tered and cultivated, will invariably
in due time produce a bountiful har.
vest of undesirable fruits in various
shocking manifestations Of human
cruelty.

Saratoga, June 27.--The very name,
Saratoga" brings to every mind
health-giving springs, unsurpassed
hotels and beautiful drives. It
has been for many years the
Mecca for all who admire nature,
enjoy good living, and are searchiGS
for health, or are simply taking va
cation.
The Grand Union, the largest sum-
mer hotel In the United States, set
among green trees with its long wings
enclosing court with fountains and
flowers, grass and trees, music and
light, is throughout the season throng-
ed with guests. With the progressive
spirit always shown by its manage
ment, the Grand Union has again add
ed to it's attractiveness by introduc-
ing acetylene gas to make still more
brilliant the evening hours. The ge-
NAL proprietors believe in furnishing
their guests with the best of every
thing, and now, after investigating
and finding that Artificial Sunlight
can be had, they have installed COM
plete acetylene gas plant to produce
1t, and have connected upwards of six
thousand acetylene burners in and
about the house and grounds to this
little gas plant
Like many discoveries of resent
years, which are coming into popular
favor, acetylene, one of the most re-
cent. is very simply produced. 1t is
adapted for use wherever artificial
light Is needed and the necessary ap-
pir.ltus can be understood and oper-
ated by anyone.
The generator in which Acetylene
Is produced by the automatic contact OF
carbide and water might be termed q
gas plant, as it performs all of the func-
lions of city gas plant. The acct
ylene generator can be purchased for
few dollars and in any size, from
one adapted to furnish acetylene to
ten or dc en- burners for cottage.
up to the large but still simple ma
chine such as Is now furnishing
Acetylene for six thousand burners
In the Grand Union.
Outside Of large cities the use of
Acetylene is quite common. The
| owner of the country home now de
mands running water, gas and other
conveniences which few years ago
were considered as luxuries, and
acetylene gas has met his require.

cheaper light than is ordinarily fur.

1t is well known that rooms lighted

HAIL AND RAIN

NORFOLK-Reports of the hail and
rainstorm which visited northern Me-

the crops that it struck into the earth,
stripping fruit trees, cutting the limbs
from ordinary trees and SCATTERING

Rest.

Few people really know how to rest.
Exercise is very necessary to health
and many do not take enough of it,;
but on the other hand, perhaps even
more people rest too little, or what
amounts to the same thing, do not
rest properly. No matter how we'll de-
yeloped the muscles are, If they are
rigid and stiff they will not do the
best work. They must be readily re.
Taxed when not In use. Even athletes
II they really understand the laws Of
exercise. strive for relaxation as we'll
AZ for well-developed muscles.

Why Butter is Eaten.

There are generally scientific rea.
sons for dietetic habits. Butter Is eat
en- with bread, the Dietetic and Hygi-
enic Gazette explains, because while
bread is rich in starch and contains
a fair proportion of proteid, 1t has not
the fat which the body Graves. Milk
Is taken with rice pudding to make up
the deficiency of proteid which rice
lacks

aerstood III manufacturing circles here
that within short time the FAN River
Cotton Manufacturers association will

pay an increase of III per cent, and adj

standing that no further advance will be
