This active age disregards old rules bearing on the amount of work which normal man can accomplish. The ex- cuse Is that moderns are wiser than the ancients, that they know that rest is not cessation but change of occupation. In two distinct quarters a voice of pro- test has been raised against this new Lewis have presented to the British as- sociation the results of study in the nature of fatigue, and Prof. Fere, an alienist of Paris, publishes nearly the same view. These physicians, two En- glish and one French, agree that fa- tigue Is the result of a toxic or poison ous element In the blood, and that the only way In which Its further accumu
 Iation can be stopped is by sleep. The phenomenon of increased activity as a result of stimulants Is followed by worse condition than before. Physical exercise is not a substitute for sleep. The improved condition of the body due to exercise may make the brain better able to resist fatigue, but 1t does not take the place of necessary rest. In cases where the patient finds relief In new line of activity the reason Is that the limit of endurance has not been reached and the body Is not yet ready for rest. Enforced rest, in Dr Fere's opinion, is as bad as overwork. There must be work enough to induce a healthy feeling of fatigue and then there must be rest, but there should be neither rest without work nor work without rest if mind and body are to remain In a sound condition. The tox- ic bodies produced by the exhaustion of one set of nerve centers affect oth- CTS, so that fatigue is diffused through the body, and yet 1t is possible for a person to be partially exhausted but not in a condition where all parts of the system require rest. Individual differences are so great as to make 1t impossible to formulate invarlable rules The most that can be hoped from this new procurement of the French and English physicians is that It may encourage those who need rest
 to secure 1t If possible, regardless oi the we'll meaning insistence of others upon physical exercise or new activity as substitute for sleep. One mans brain work may be 70 specialized that he needs to tire other portions of his brain or his muscles before he can rest. while another man doing the same kind of work may find his whole body poi, soned by fatigue. The first needs change, the second needs release. Each must find out the law of his body and obey It.

TORCH HIS RAZOR.
New Hampshire Man Singes Beard
 on Without Burning Himself.

New Hampshire Man Singes Beard on Without Burning Himself. Every man Is his own barber In Mount Vernon, N. H., as far as shaving in concerned, for there are no tonsorlal parlors, says the Boston Herald. In many other New Hampshire towns men are frequently accommodated by the village postmaster, storekeeper, lock- smith or carpenter who owns a razor requires When Mount Vernon men want a haircut they go to Milford or some other large town.
 There Is one native of the place, a man of 56 years, who has neither a beard nor heavy growth of hair, who does not leave town or enlist the aid of neighbor in ''chopping off, his locks. He is his own barber and probably one of the best known characters in Mount Vernon-Jarvis Smith, or "Jarve" as he is called. "Jarve" has a unique method of removing his superfuous hair, and while 1t Is possibly original with himself, it Is not secret. He has no patent upon 1t, and rather prefers others to follow his example If they wish to practice economy. The process can be done anywhere In the parlor, on the street, in the field or on the wood lot, and "Jarve' does 1t when he finds 1t necessary, regardless of where he happens to be.
 Smiths method Is by singeing. After dipping a piece of wood into kerosene oil and igniting 1t he starts to work. With the burning torch in one hand and using the other for fire extlnguish- er," he slnges one side of his face, then the other, the upper lip and chin, and in that way rids himself of all the hair on his face, and while he crops 1t down about as close as the average man does with razor he very rarely burns him. self The same sort of torch Is used to remove his superfluous hair.
 Burn yourself?" said Smith. "No. If man knows how to take his whs- kers and hair off In this way he needn't be afraid of scorching--his face or head. conceived the idea some years ago and I would not take chances with a sharp razor. Life Is too precious and I am not ready to die yet"

Broiled Chicken.

Singe, split down the back, clean and wipe with damp cloth. Rub inside and out with little butter, then sprln- kle with salt and pepper. Arrange on a greased wire broller. Cook with flesh side toward the fire at first. When scared hold little farther away from the fire Turn occasionally on the skin side, but be careful, as It readily scorches. A chicken weighing two pounds and a half will take from fif- teen to twenty minutes; If not we'll done 1t will be tough. Transfer to d hot platter and rub again with butter.

DurlUR t0dt Ueuldry period of American history of which Clay was the leading figure the pioneer statesman Is the great individual among one of the most distinguished companies politics ever brought togeth- CT in any nation. Clay was the pioneer of the influence of the west in Amer lcan politics. Although he himself was unsuccessful in his candidacy, he control. Before his advent New Eng land, New York, and Virginia had rig orously kept out the west.
 It was the same spirit of overcoming obstacles that distinguished Clay in public life that had brought him to the front in that public life. His boyhood had been a constant struggle against want and all the dangers of the frontier. Indians, wild animals, the hundred-fold dangers of the wilderness he had known. Like Benton, he had been forced to be the man of the family while he was still child, because of the death of his father. As for education, he was self instructed.
 Politics and the law were his medi- ums of entering public life. From Ken lucky he went to Washington, raw frontiersman In comparison with the trained, polished statesmen there; but his wonderful personality was not long In asserting itself and bringing him t. the pedestal of fame.

What the Onion Will Do.

It Is well known that an onion eaten at bedtime will cure a cold, and as a plaster 1t removes inflammation and hoarseness. But 1t is not generally known that 1t cures sleeplessness. Take all the juice out of one or more onions and you have smelling compound that will quiet the nerves after a few min utes of smelling, just from sheer weari- ness, and sleep will result. It is best to let someone else try this remedy first.

Upon the comple- tion of the ironing the board Is again folded across the table supports and the leaf lowered to its normal posltio l..
