Mlcrobe Of GRAY Hair,

They have discovered a new mic
robe in New York and 1t is quite popu-
lar among actors and society women.
1t is called the chromophage, its spe-
cial function being to turn the hair
gray at comparatively early age. The
handsome actor who has those white
hairs on his temple that the women
admire SO is full Of the chromophages.
Baldheaded men are immune from the
microbes. He only attacks the hair,
and a man without hair need not wor-
ry about the chromophage. For years
1t was thought that process of the
blood killed the coloring matter Of the
hair cells, but scalpologists In New
York combat that theory. They say
1t Is the chromophage. The microbe
does not like heat and for that reason
the woman who uses the curling tongs
Is less likely to have gray hair than
the one who puts her hair up in pa
perS,

The ideal sink is Of porcelain with

crack or crevice for dirt or the ever
ready water bug. He Is ready still
but he must live In the open and not
lie concealed. A white enamel sink
IL almost as good as the porcelain and
much less expensive. Soapstone and
slate are very good, and SO. too. Is the
copper.lined sink. The great danger
IA the porcelain and enameled sinks
Is the breaking OF delicate china and
glass. The copper lining is much the
best for that. The wooden drain
boards tipping slightly toward the
sink are great convenience. Ere
quently rubber mats with. roughened
surface are placed In these to keep the
dishes from slipping. There are. be
sides. wire and nickelplated dish
drainers. which will keep the plates
separated one from another while

Marriage Flight Of Ants.

People living along the River Stour.
at Sandwich, England, were the other
day treated to wonderful sight. Sud.
denly the stream. the shores and the
streets Of the town became covered
with flying ants that seemed to be
dropping like hail from the clouds.
The phenomenon was marriage
flight OF ants, such as always takes
place in the summer. The ants thus
swarming were young queens and
winged males. In these marriage
flights countless millions OF ants take
part, yet the noise of their tiny vibrat-
ing wings Is scarcely as loud as the
hum OF bee. So frail are their dense
columns that little pun OF wind will
dispense them out Of sight.
Comparatively few OF the myriads
which come forth from their nests
into the air live to enter nest again.
Practically all the males die. lonely
and shelterless. The surviving queens
found new communities. or, entering
old nests. are at once taken care OF by
the workers, and start new colonies
In their old nursery.

NO DAWDlING.
A Man Of 70 After Finding Coffee Hurt
Him, Stopped Short.

When a man has lived to be 20 years
old with a 40-year-old habit grown to
him like knot on tree, chances are
he'll stick to the habit till he dies.
But occasionally the spirit of youth
and determination remains in some
men to the last day of their lives
When such men do find any habit of
life has been doing them harm, they
surprise the Oslerites by degree Of
will power that is supposed to belong
to men under 40 only.
Il had been a user of coffee until
three years ago-a period of 40 years

debilitated, and saw plainly that
must make a change.
II am thankful to say l had the
nerve to quit coffee at once and take
on Postum without any dawdling, and
experienced no i'll effects. On the con-
trary, / commenced TO gain, losing my
nervousness within two months, also

LITTLE THINGS AND Blo.
Dlfferentiate Between the Essential
and the Non-Essential.

Little things are often Of great i'm
portance, but when they are so they
are not little. The pinion Of watch
wheel, for example, in one sense Is
little, in another sense 1t Is not so at
all; for when Il Is not perfectly ad-
justed, the watch Is worthless for time
keeping. 1t is not size that makes
thing little or great, but its relation to
the end for which a number Of things
are combined. II a thing is essential
II Is important. Because so many Of
the people who are always preaching
the Importance Of little things fail to
discriminate between the little and the
non-essential, they often make a
wretched mess Of the management Of
their own and other peoples affairs.
Theoretically, II every factor that con-
tributes to a result is perfect. the re-
suit will be perfect; but practically,
for want OF time, strength and oppor-
tunity, the efficient man Is compelled
to neglect some things for the sake Of
others; and, In order to do this and
yet secure the main end, he has to
discriminate between the essential and
the non-essential. The one who is
thoroughly imbued with the false doc.
trine Of the Importance of little things,
spends his strength without discrim'
ination, and usually succeeds in miss
Ing the main chance.-The Watchman

Lower Animals In Sickness.

Man might often take from the low.
er animals lesson as to the care Of
himself when Ill. All sorts of animals
suffering from fever eat little; lie
quiet in dark, airy places, and drink
quantities of water. When dog loses
his appetite he knows where to find
dog grass, which acts as a purgative
and emetic. Sheep and cows, when
Ill, seek certain herbs. Any animal
suffering from chronic rheumatism
keeps as far as possible from the
sun. II chimpanzee be wounded he
has been seen to stop the bleeding by
