Child Labor in Factories.

The physician in attendance at a
mas within tho past year been making
careful inquiry into the history of
the tramps who have become the city's
guests He has found that large
proportion of the tramps give history
of having been employed in factories
or in other facilitating occupations in
boyhood. Our artificial modern life
is making multltudes of human wrecks.
one class of whom is represented by
the homeless. frlendless. disheartened
men known as tramps. Fortunate. in

How do You Eat?

It is safe to say that modern cook
ing develops business for both the sa-
loonkeeper and the undertaken. When
boy eats mustard plasters in the
form of food that is almost saturated
with fiery spices and irritating condi-
ments. thirst is created that nothing
but liquor or cigarets will satisfy. Man
Is admonished to ''eat for strength,
and not for drunkenness but in these
days anything that will tickle the four
square inches of taste surface is con
sidered good food. although 1t may
contain scarcely any of the elements
that nature requires to replace broken
down tissues and to rebuild the worn
out brain. AS consequence. the vi
tally and physical resistance soon
reach such low ebb that the individ-
ual falls an easy prey to any microbe
with which he may chance to come in
contact

Some npon,tsr ABOUT Dress.


Don't dress the neck too warm when
going out in cold weather A little
extra protection is required for the
ears, but it is not necessary to muiIie
up the neck with thick furs to protect
the ears. Warm wrappings about the
neck cause the skin of the neck to
become moistened with perspiSation.
When the wrappings are removed IN
doors, the slow cooling which takes
place in consequence of the evapora-
ton chills the part, and may produce
sore throat or nasal catarrh.
Don't wear rubbers indoors. nor out
of doors. except when it is necessary
To prevent wett;ng the feet Rubbers,

they had been wet by the rain or by

precaution to remove the shoes and
stockings and put on dry ones. If this
cannot be conveniently done care
should be taken to keep the feet warm
until the shoes are dry. The rubbers
should be dried before wearing again.

Won Each Time.

About thirty years ago a remark
able bet was made between Capt. M
racing celebrity, and another Off
Ger who was noted for his activity.
Capt M bet $50 that his fellow of
fcer would not hop up certain flight
OF stairs two at a time"
The offer was taken. but, as there
were forty-one steps in the flight, he
found. after taking twenty hops, that
he was left only one step to negotiate
and had lost. He accused Capt. M
of sharp practice, but the latter re
piled:
We'll, I'll wager you another s5t

The officer. thinking to get bach
his money, again accepted.
Capt. M then hoped up forty
steps in twenty hops, and. hoppinl
back one. finished by going up tn,

doctor in Denver some time ago
made some experiments with consump-
tives. A tent colony was established
little way out of Denver, and the
patients progressed fairly well during
the first part of the winter. But by
and by there was blizzard. and the
thermometer went down to go degrees
below zero. and then they began to
improve very fast. One woman did
not seem to improve at all until the
reached this mark, and
then she improved rapidly. She had
had no appetite. but that 20 degrees
below zero weather gave her an appe-
lite. which was an indication that the

that the assimilative processes were
being resumed. and from that time she

Paul Pascoe. a ranchman OF the Lar
annie river. In Wyoming. says he never
saw the jackrabbits as numerous since
'76. Pascoe. on January 18th, was sur
prised at the appearance of five large
eagles near his ranch house. and upon
going to the corral in the meadow
where there was stack OF hay he
found that the big birds were attracted
by the presence there OF hundreds of
the rabbits.
The rabbits had come to the corral
for food and shelter because of the
snow and were huddled in the corners
OF the fences trying to escape the ca
giles, which we're constantly swooping
down and picking up a victim, often
only to let 1t drop to the ground. where
several coyotes. also attracted by the.
want of food, would seize it.

Natural Cure for tuberculosis.

Swedish doctor some fourteen or
fifteen years ago succeeded. by very
crude method, in curing patients who
have been given up to die. His prac-

three times a day with towel wet
in very cold water. A little later ne
put the patient in tub of water at
about 60 degrees. rubbing him vigor-
ously for about minute. and later, as
the patient became better able to
endure the cold water, he was plunged
into a tub full of ice water. This was
done three times a day. Think of
those poor consumptives, Neverthe-
less they got well. The cold water,

Condiments Create False Appetite.

There is absolutely no food value
in mustard, pepper, ginger. capsicum
and such things. and some of them.
spiced pickles. for instance, are indi-
gestible as sawdust. But these things
people say. have relish. Those who
have good, healty appetite do not
feel the need of anything of that sort
for a relish.
condiment is something which
creates a false demand for food. 1t
enables us to eat when we really have
no appetite. Appetite is an evidence
OF gastric juice with which to digest
food. Lack of appetite is an evidence
that one is not in condition to digest
food. But condiment often produces
false impression resembling appe-
tite. making one think that he is ready
for food when he is not. 1t is, there

ed by those who have no appetite.
Mustard. pepper spices of all sorts are
