Ordinarily Cheerful, 1t Held a Strain
of Deep Melancholy.
Hopeful and cheerful as he ordinarily
seemed, there was in Mr.. Lincolns dis
position a strain of deep melancholy.
This was not peculiar to him alone, for
the pioneers as race were sOmber
rather than gay. Their lives had been
passed for generations under the most
trying physical conditions, near malaria
infested streams and where they breath
ed the poison Of decaying vegetation.
insufficient shelter, storms, the cold of
winter, savage enemies and the cruel
labor that killed off all but the hardest
Of them had at the same time killed the
happy go-lucky gayety Of an easier
form of life. They were thoughtful,
watchful, wary; capable, indeed, of
wild merriment, but 1t has been said
that although a pioneer might laugh he
Lincoln's mind was unusually sound
and sane and normal. He had cheer
full, wholesome sunny nature, yet he
had inherited the strongest traits of the
pioneers, and there was in him, more
over, much Of the poet, with a poets
capacity for JOY and pain. 1t is not
strange that as he developed into man
hood, especially when his deeper nature
began to feel the STRINGS of ambition
and Of love, that these seasons Of de-
preston and gloom came upon him
with overwhelming force.-Helen Nico-

Dscolored dark urine, sometimes excessive
and of pale color.
Unusual desire to urnate, especially at night.

Drowsiness and a constant tired feeling.
Pale, hot and dry skin.
PAIN in the back, headache, cramps in the legs.
Bowels constipated, digestion impaired.
Rheumatic pains in the joints and muscles.
If you have any of the above symptoms your kid
neys need immediate attention, and DIR. David Ken

Natures Provision For the Relief of

The practical cultivator understands
that nature makes provision for getting
rid Of the bark Of trees as the trunk in

velopment, these little patches spread,
really eating their way through the
bark. This is the provision which ma
ture makes for finally rifting the bark
In each species Of plant. These cork
cells have their own special lines Of de-
velopment. and this is the reason why
each kind of tree has it's own particular
bark The characteristics are so prom
inent that clever observers can select
different kinds Of trees by their bark
even at midnight. AS it is the evident
intention of nature to get rid of old
bark, it Is great help to the tree to as
slst nature in this respect, and any
wash or treatment which aids the
plant in getting rid of it is a prac-
teal advantage. Soapy water wash or
I've water is useful, and even scraDing
has been found Of great advantage
In rough sort of way lime wash is
frequently used, the only objection be-
ing the white and glaring color. 1t Is,
however, the cheapest and the best Of
all bark treatment

How Snakes Move and Climb.

The vertebrate of a snake are fitted
together by a kind of ball and socket
articulation, which, however, is capa-
BILE of only lateral or side to side mo-
ton. A snake moves by propelling
himself on the points of his scales,
which, to him, answer the purpose Of
ribs. A snake does not climb a tree
or bush by coiling around it, as most
people who have not investigated the
matter believe, but by balancing him
self very evenly and holding on with
the points and edges Of his scales. A
snake on pane of glass or other pol
ished surface where the scales cannot
take hold is almost perfectly helpless.

THE USEFUL YAWN.
This Lung VentiIating Process Serves
a Double Purpose.


The act of yawning is distinctly bene-
fetal in two ways. In the first place
1t serves the purpose Of lung ventila-
ton. The lungs are not filled or ex-
hausted by ordinary respiration. There
is a certain quantity of air which phys
iologists call residual air" left in the
recesses of the lungs after the ordinary
respiration. This in time becomes VIII
ated and affects the blood and, through
1t, the nervous centers.
The result is yawn, which is really
stretching of the respiratory chamber
to its fullest capacity and the filling
Of 1t with freshly inspired air which
drives the vitiated air out Yawning is
also beneficial in so far as it opens,
stretches and ventilates the vocal, ma
sal and auditory chambers in immedi-
ate connection with the mouth.
The cracking sound often heard when
yawning is due to the stretching and
opening of the eustachian tubes, which
form a communication between the
middle ear and the back Of the throat
The deafness which often accompanies
cold is due to the congestion Of these
tubes.-London Hospital.

Limited Bathing.

DR.. Somerville Hastings, lecturing at
the London Institute of Hygiene on
"Cleanliness Is Next to. Goodness. !"
said that people were much cleaner
now than in the reigns of Queen Mary
and Elizabeth, when the washing of
clothes was unknown. Cotton was
hardly in use, and linen was expensive.
The poor wore rough wooden garments,
which were never washed, and the bet
ter classes adorned themselves with
silks and velvets, which were dyed
when they would no longer pass mus
ter in regard to cleanliness. 1t is re-
corded, continued DR.. Hastings, that
James I. never washed either hands or
face during the period he posed as the
wisest fool in Christendom, but con-
fined his cleanliness within the narrow
limits of wiping his finger tips upon a
damp napkln.-London Telegraph.
