True In Every Language.

Tennyson once attended a dinner where c. L. Cralk proposed "The La dies" In doing so he recalled the cyn- lcal advice given by a brother Scot to bis children. ''Tak my advice and dlnna marry for slller. You can borrow cheap er." Some time later TeuuySon at hls own table repeated MT. Craik's story, but expressed the idea without at tempting dialect. Ills son Hallam re- marked, Surely, father, Cralk did not use those words" ''No, he did not. But, then, Craik is a ScOtchman. and l am afraid to venture on repeating him ex- actly. However, it's almost as good in English as in Scotch, and It's tremen- dously true in both."

Why a s.LimItcd" Trains


 The question why Is limited train" so called has been propounded to a general passenger agent who replies as follows:
 First.-It is limited as to it's time.
 Secoud.-It is limited as to the num- Der of cars and weight of train.
 Thlrd.-It Is limited as to the class of cars.
 Fourth.-lt Is limited as to the num- Der and class of passengers permitted transportation thereon.
 This last limit is adopted so that every passenger may have ample ac- commodation and not be crowded or intcrfered with by other passengers. The fact that an additional fare is charged on q limited train and, fur ther, that nothing but first class tick ets are accepted for passage tends to limit the class of travel which Is car ried

BILE, bent in zigzag What could pos
sibly be the use of this? One could
watch the web for long time without
seeing the creature make use of it;
when a victim is taken, the spider is
content to wind him about with small
threads. Yet the cable is undoubted-
ly of use to the spider, for if it is re-
moved he hastens to make another.
M. Vinson at last, after long observa-
ton, succeeded in solving the ques-
ton. One day when he was examin-
ing for the hundredth time the tricks
and the manners of the spider, he saw
a great grasshopper jump into the
midst of the web. At the same instant
the spider, darting upon the cable, be
gan with the greatest swiftness to
wrap it about the insect. The victim
was too large to be held by the sim
pie threads; the cable was there to
bind him securely.
The ant eater depends less on the
power of skill, and, like child, lines
his game. He puts out his long sticky
tongue and fiattens it on the ground !;
all the insects that pass stick to it,
wing with each other, and when the
heap is sufficiently thick, the ant eater
draws his long tongue in and swallows
them ALL At other times he plunges
his lingual appendix into ant hills and
draws il back laden with ants.
Coursing is frequent among nam
mails, notably among wild dogs
wolves, and foxes. According to F
Houssay, wild dogs follow their prey
in immense packs. They excite one

Wantsd-An Annetite.

Don't be without one. Why go to
the dining room under protest. Don't
try to buy appetite at dollar bot
tie. Earn it. One should enjoy eating
and he will. if he has a natural appe-
tite, such as comes to one who works
for it.
The outdoor life creates appetite.
and a cold morning bath awakens the
brain, lungs, heart, liver, stomach and
the appetite. An ice bag over the
stomach for half an hour before meals
is a good natural appetizer for bed
ridden invalid.
Another method is hot application
over the abdomen for five minutes, fol-
lowed by an ice rub over the same
parts for one or two minutes. This
not only produces an appetite but
stimulates the flow of the digestive
juices and thus furnishes the ability
to digest.

AM ImposslbIe Servant.

Anna Katherine Green, the we'll
known novelist, discussed the servant
question at recent dinner party in
New York.
Servants, as a class" she said,
"are excellent. l have no sympathy
with those women who say it is i'm
possible to get good servants. 1 ad-
nit, though, that now and then an i'm
possible servant turns up.
can impossible servant, a cook,
turned up at the house of a friend
of mine last week. This cook was
from New Hampshire state, noted,
believe, for the naughty pride of its
inhabitants, be they rich or poor. She
came to my friend with high recon-
mendation from an employment
agency, but as soon as she entered
the house she began to ask the most
impertinent questions.
my friend answered her questions
with civility, but in the end they
reached a point where civility would
no longer serve.

Early in October there was held in
st. Louis, at the Hall of Congresses,
in connection with the Worlds Fair,
the American International Congress
of tuberculosis, which consisted OF
representatives gathered from all
parts of the American continent, to
discuss the best means of preventing
and curing this dreadful disease. Spe-
cial attention was given to the subject
of prevention. The congress was in
session three days. Many important
questions were discussed and commit
tees were appointed for the purpose
of carrying forward an active cam
paign against this most terrible of all
the foes of human life. The commit
tee of publicity was charged with the
duty of organizing a proper educa-
tional campaign in connection with
Chautauquas, conventions, associa'
lions and fraternities of various sorts
for the purpose of placing in the
hands of the public information re
lating to the best means of preventing
and combating this scourge. Those
who are especially interested in this
phase of the question should address

STUDENT SCORED AT END.
Professors Discontinue at Hands OF
Smart Undergraduate.

OfHdEA oNNONS'
John Morley was talking in New

1.-THE famous and learned Master of
Baliol," he said, had caustic wit,
and innumerable are the stories OF UNI

acid sentences occasioned. Stories OF
Jowett's discontinue at an undergrad
yates hands are rare. Nevertheless
heard one recently.
"a youth from Devonshire entered
Oxford, called on Prof. Jowett duly,
and on a certain afternoon took a
walk with the great man along the
river bank.
HE was a laxative youth. He gave
over the whole afternoon to discus
sion of Jowett's work on Plato. He
pointed out two phrases in Jowett's
Symposium and Republic that he con-
ceived to be errors of translation, and
he found some little fault with the
| notes. Prof. Jowett, he held, did not
give in these notes a quite adequate
exposition of the Platonic philosophy.
For nearly two hours Prof. Jowett
listened to this boys criticism of his
life work Save for the chirping HIN,

speech with him, he didn't attempt to
defend himself in any way. HIM, dc

Diet for Tuberculosis.

The tubercular patient needs pro-
teids, OF tissue-building foods, but only
just the amount which can be assimi-
lated and utilized by the body. Any
excess must be treated like poisons,
and hence must be burden to both
liver and kidneys, and waste of vital
energy.
Proteids must be taken, not only in
moderate quantity, but in the purest
form possible. The vegetable kingdom
presents proteids in combination with
fats in great abundance, and in nuts,
which can be made easily digestible
by thorough chewing or by proper
preparation.
The yolks of eggs afford also COM
bination of fats and proteids which is
admirably suited to the tubercular pa
tent Milk, especially rich milk. is
another food adapted to this class Of
patients when it does not produce
"biliousness" through indigestion.
Many tubercular patients have dila-
tation of the stomach Such cases
must avoid milk. Nearly all can take
nuts if the right kind is selected and
great care is taken with the mastica-
ton. Pecans, hickory nuts, almonds
and filberts, pinons, or pine nuts are
the best varieties. Half a pound OF
nuts may be taken daily by the con
sumptive. not only without harm, but
with great benefit, if combined with
other foods. A diet consisting Of nuts

in the quantity Of one to three quarts
a day, according to the amount OF
