Origin Of the Orange.

It is to India and the Arabs as mid.
dlemen that Europe, and through Eu-
rope, America, owe this now familiar
fruit. The orange crossed from Africa
to Spain with Mohammedanism, while,
probably, the crusaders are to be
thanked for bringing it 10 Italy and
western Europe among their trophies
of the East. The very name is really
Arabic" narranj'-and OF Eastern
origin, though the legend that it comes
from two words meaning elephant
and "be ill.," because elephants ate
oranges to make themselves i'll, is ab.
surd. Probably in French the initial
an" is dropped off from narranj with
the final "n" of the indefinite article
just as our "an apron" represents " q
napron"; and the spelling with an o.
points to false association with "or'
(gold).

TAKE THE PAPERS.

Why don't you take the papers. They're the life

Except about election time, and then read for
spite.

For cash thus paid is money lent at interest four
fold paid.

Desired TO hear the latest news while he WAS
going off.

He bought box. and is he deads o. no, not he,
of course.
knew two men as much alike you ne'cr saw
two stumps
And no phrenologist could find difference in
their bumps.
One takes the papers and his lie is happier than
kings,
His children all can read and write, and talk OF
men and things.
The other took no paper. and while strolling
through the woods,
A tree fell down and broke his crown, and killed
him very good.
Had he been reading of the news at home, like
neighbor Jim,
I'll bet a cent that accident would not have
happened him.
Why don't you take the paperss nor from the
printer sneak,
Because you borrow from his boy copy every
week.
For he who takes the papers, and pays his bills
when due,
Can live in peace with earth and man, and with
the printer, too.

A prominent railroad man repeats
with great enjoyment story that he
had from q con ductor on one OF the
limited expresses between New York

II sppears that dapper chap in the

unusually friendly with an attractive
young woman in an adjoining seat.
When the train pulled into Buffalo,

one, remarked:
"Do you know, I must thank you

To keep bugs out of seed beans,
gather beans as soon as ripe. shell
and dry. Put into glass jars with a
lump of camphor gum Gas big as a
filbert), put on the screw top and set
away.
Lisle thread stockings should be
washed in tepid water tinted with q
little blue, and soap should only be
used for the feet. Rinse in clear water,
allowing piece OF ammonia the size
of bean to every gallon OF water.
Dry quickly in the fresh air, but not
in the sun. If this is impossible, roll
up tightly and ring in a clean cloth,
letting fold OF the cloth come between
each fold of the stocking.

LET 'ER BOOM.

Tell us not In mOurnful numbers
That the town IL full of gloom,
For the mans a crank who slumber
In these bursting days of boom.
Life is real, life is earnest,
And the grave Is not it's goal;
Every dollar that thou turnest
Helps to make the old town roll.
But enjoyment, and not sorrow,
Is our destined end or way;
II you have no money, borrow
Buy corner lot each day!
Lives of great men all remind us
We can win immortal fame;
Let lis leave the chumpe behind us,
And We'll get there just the same.
In this worlds broad field Of battle;
In the bivOuac of life,
Let us make the dry bones rattle
Buy corner lot for wifei
Let us then. be up and doing,
With heart for any fate;
Still achieving, still pursuing.

GIRLS, READ THIS.

Do Not Spoil the Beauty Of Your Arms by Ex.
posure to Sun and Wind.
A writer in one of our city dailies
says: "The girl who deliberately
bares her arms 10 the wind and sun to
be Drowned. and then expects them,
by some magic lotion to be restored to
presentable condition for her pretty
evening gowns in a week or less time
has very little conception OF the action
of the elements on the sensitive skin.
1t is exactly as if she were to hold
them to blazing fire until . deep
burn results. It is doubtful il q pair
of hands and arms thus abused can
ever be entirely restored to their origi.

coarseness, as unlike the satin
smOothness of the natural skin land
which it is quite possible to retain) as
can we'll be. A swim or . boat ride, a
mountain trip or a game OF tennis, is
none the less enjoyable if the hands
and arms are properly covered. The
wearing Of . pair of buckskin gloves
and long sleeves should not spoil the
pleasure OF . pedestrian excursion any
more than the wearing OF any garment
that BELTS her sex by the woman who
takes these outings. The winds and
sun are very hard on the skin; they
parch, even if the burn is not percep-
tible. In the arid and never. .ceasing
winds Of some regions. one sees even
young women with skins of parch-
ment.like texture; but in more ia.
vored regions, why should women de.
liberately court . condition which,
later on, will cause her untold anxiety
and many tears. to say nothing OF
time and money epent in vain trying
to undo what she has deliberately
done. There is no wash, or salve or
lotion that can undo, even BY months
of patient application, the work Of q
week OF such senseless exposure. It is
. destructive fad, and q woman should
count the cost thoroughly before she
puts herself to such . test"

the increase in value of land, without
the thistle and mustard, would aver
age $25 an acre. The importation of
a spraying machine from Germany has
made it possible to spray an acre Of
land at the net cost OF so cents. Pro-
fessor Moore of the university has, it
is claimed, demonstrated in southern
Wisconsin that sulphate OF iron is the
most corrective method yet devised,
and it is believed that the continue
experiments will further demonstrate
its usefulness in agriculture.

HOW TO SLEEP.
There Is Much to Learn Even In this Natural
Habit

There is Much to Learn Even in this Natural
Habit.
During childhood and exhaustive
states too much sleep is rarely posi-.
BILE. For those in full tide of vigor
too much sleep is often distinctly
hurtful, says DIR. J. Madison Taylor in
the Popular Science Monthly.
The action of narcotics presents
none OF the characteristics of normal
sleep except the temporary arrest OF
consciousness; hence narcosis is not
true sleep.
The best position to assume in sleep
to invite the least disturbance of the
functions of the great organs is on the
abdomen or nearly so. Many obscure
forms of digestive or circulatory dis.
orders may have been initiated in in
fancy through lying too long upon the
back.
To secure the most perfect repose
the temperature OF all parts should be
equalized before retiring. Cold feet
induce delay in securing sleep, and it
is then shallow when obtained.
1t is most unwise TO overfill the
stomach before retiring. This dis.
turbs sleep almost as much as hunger,
but moderate eating before sleeping is
not hurtful and is often salutary.
Body clothing at night should be
loose, not dense. permitting the ready
passage OF air, never of wool next TO
the skin. Bed clothing should not
be too close Of texture, blankets being
preferable to dence comforters and not
tucked in too closely. Air should be
allowed to pass occasionally under the
sides, at least as one turns about more
or less freely.
Early rising is a salutary custom,
especially when the day comes early,
not otherwise: More sleep is required
in winter than in summer. The best
sleep is had during the hours OF dark
ness.
The sleeping.room should be cool,
abundant cir being always admitted.
This should not be interpreted TO mean
that the room may safely remain in.
tensely cold. Heated air can and
should be supplied along with the
fresh cir till the temperature OF the
room be At or near so or SIS degrees F.,
for some even GO degrees F.
