Parsimony Means Health.

did you ever notice." said a prom
inent physical culture teacher of New
York, that parsimoniOus people al
most always enjoy good health and
long life? Eating has great deal to do
with this. We learn that one wealthy
person lunches always on cup of tea
and a doughnut; that the great stand
by Of another was apples.
ut is not only that they eat frugal
" that accounts for their excellent
health, but that there is SO much reg
ularity in their diet. The first thing
the economical person does, as rule.
is to reduce living to system. He
studies how he can subsist best for the
least money, and then allows himself
very little variety from the regular or

Regularity of diet means great
saving of time ana money in his eyes.

Chose Crown From Cannon.

Neither King Carol of Roumania nor
his queen. known in the world Of lit
erature as Carmen Sylvia, had any de-
sire for regal hOnOrs, and when the as
saSSinatiOn of Car Alexander in 1881
forced them on Roumanias unhappy
throne they went protestingly. Carol
finally consented TO be king. but de-
clared he would never sit upon a
throne or wear a crown.
The chamber and senate at Bucha-
rest insisted declaring the people
wanted and had right to expect SYM
bols of royalty. Carol protested that
coronation ceremony would make
himself and his wife ridiculous. like
actors in a play" but was forced to
yield and get himself crown.
But no headgear of silks and pre-
eious stones for him. He sent to the
arsenal for one of the cannons cap
tured from the Turks, ordered that it
be melted down and from it's steel q
crown be made, ''in remembrance of
the brave Roumanian blood shed for
liberty" And with this he was
crowned.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..

Do not imagine that because a heavy
thunderstorm is far away to leeward
1t is not likely to arise and wet you.
Even if the wind is blowing right
against the cloud it will come your
way all the more surely, for thunder
storms always travel against the wind.
The reason for this is that there is in
variably a commencement of air above
the breeze that you feel close to the
earth, and this sky high wind blows in
the opposite direction to the one which
alone you can detect Thus the tenn
pest seems to work its way right
through the winds eyes in very con-
trary sort of way. Fog never does this:
neither does ordinary rain-at least
very seldom-but snow or sleet some
times works it's way up wind just as
the tempest does. Sheet lightning, by
the way, is not distinctive sort of
light, but merely the reflection in the
sky of q forked fash many miles away.
You can tell how far away tempest
is by counting the number of seconds
that pass between the flash and the
peal. Each second stands for about a
mile.-New York Herald.

In Past Ages 1t Played Very I'm
portant Part In Life.
Many odd notions still exist as to
sneezing, and some persons may be
heard to exclaim "Bless, my soul.
oncer' "Bless my soul, twice!' and so
on after each sneeZe. But in past
ages the sneeze really played a very
important part.
In ancient Greece the people saluted
each other whenever any one present
CHANGED to sneeZe. AS Xenophon was
addressing the Greek army in mo-
ment of defeat on a historical occa-
sion a soldier sneezed. The lines OF
battle were formed at once, for the
sneeze was deemed good omen, and
the Greeks were successful.
Among the Hebrews when person
sneezed the bystanders would say,
"Tobinz chaiim''-"A long life to you"
In India criminals on the rack of tor
ture have saved their own lives by
sneezing accidentally.
A humorous story about sneezing is
told in that wonderful collection or
oddities, "The Arabian Nights" A
schoolmaster was particular in teach
ing his pupils the value of politeness
He also told them that whenever he
sneezed they should clap their hands
and say, Long live our noble master"
One day master and pupils went out
for a stroll The air was hot, and all
soon grew very thirsty. Great was
their joy at last to find a well. But
the bucket was at the bottom of the
well. and so the schoolmaster went
down to bring it up. The boys seized
the rope and tugged for dear life. lust
as the schOolmaster reached the top or
the we'll he sneezed. The boys let go
the rope and clapped their hands, shout
ing, Long live our noble master!"
AS for the poor schoolmaster, he fell
to the bottom of the we'll, where he
may be to this day, for all one knows
