TEMPTING THE INVALID.

AS all good nurses know, an in
valid's or convalescent's fooo supply
should be dressed up in an attractive
way to tempt the palate by means
of the eyesight A new way of see
ing the special kind of foods which
the doctor has recommended helps
decidedly to stimulate the appetite,
especially where continuous variety
of food cannot be given. A writer on
invalid cooking says: Remember
that surprises are delightful to sick
person. Never let The bill of fare (if
possible) be known beforehand, and
if you can disguise a well known
dish, so much the better. Beaten
white of egg is good fairy and
serves you cheaply. Snowy white or
made golden brown in the oven, it
may top many dish concealing at
one time a custard, at another a
mould of chicken jelly or even cup
of delicate apple sauce"
The same writer adds the following
fuggestion, which will be novel one
10 many housewife: THE processes
of cooking, if simple, an invalid loves
To watch and the sight is often a
whet to the appetite. Bring his Cruel
to him in the form of mush, and thin
1t before his eyes with milk or cream.
Coddle his egg in stoneware bowl
while he eats another course, and by
all means make his tea at the bed

Oh, What a Language!
BY S. w. GILLIAN.

What language - what a lam
guage it is that we speak! How little
we may depend upon a rule once
learned! We note the word that
is formed apparently exactly as is
some other word whose meaning we
have been taught to ascertain by the
application of certain rules, and be-
hold! we make an egregious-nay,
even a idiculous-blunder
For instance, we say man has
been disarmed, meaning that he has
had his arms taken away from him.
But when we speak of the prisoner
after the disarming scrimmage as
being disheveled, we do not mean
that they also took his hevel away
from him. OF course not
We mention the dehorned COW,
meaning the cow has been taken
while calf and robbed of her horns.
Yet when we speak of a man who has
been defeated we do not refer to a
man who, while a calf, was tied up
and robbed of his feat or his feet.
We say that Anne Boleyn and 9TH
er ladies were beheaded, meaning
that they were placed on a block and
had their heads chopped off. But
take, again, the word befuddled
speak of a man as being in such a
condition. But do we mean that he
lay down on block and had his fud-
die chopped off? Certainly. certain
ly not.
So you see how untrustworthy this
language of ours is.
Glass is dismissed. Take the next
two pages for the next lesson

The CantiIever Bridge.

A cantilever bridge is one in which
a girder or continuous truss is Sc.
curely anchored at the shore end, and
extends over and beyond supports
on each side of the stream. These
arms, or cantilevers, in turn support
4 central span or truss, this form OF
bridge being especially useful where
the erection of supporting falseworb
under the river spans would be diff
cult or impossible. It's entire pacti
cability was demonstrated on large
scale in 1875, when the so-calle'
Kentucky viadUct was completed, and
since Then thI aciple has been APP
piled TO bridges at Niagara Mem
phis, ST. John, N b., across the Firth
9r Forth, and over the Hudson at
Poughkeepsie - to name the most
conspicuous. And the Quebec bridge
is not the only contemporary struc.
ture of the sort, the Blackwells Isl.
and Bridge at New York being Of the
same design, with its longest span

embodied all there is of human grief
when it has passed the stress OF
human passion and must rest II
needs the further pursuance of the
thought: there is embodied at once
the human repose and the spiritual
mystery of that pause in Life which
we call Death. 1t is the memorial OF
woman of rare charm, character
and accomplishment, dying in her yet
young prime-the wife of Henry Ad-

adequate. 1t is indeed the peace that

An Indiscreet Angel.

A little girl was being put to bed
one summer night, and after she had
said her prayers her mother kissed
her good night and said:

over you"

and father were at tea. small voice

Wants Of an Indiana Town,

This place occupies rather a unique
position among the towns of Indiana
at the present time. 1t has two good
railways, with no railroad station;
two good church buildings and no
preacher; two good saloon buildings,
both empty; a hotel building, but no
hotel, with no immediate prospect OF
any of these vacant places being filled
very soon. The town wants preach,
ers, and 1t wants hotel man, but il
doesn't want saloons. Linden Cor.
