LAssITupE.

Many of those who at this season
of the year experience a feeling Of
lassitude attribute It TO the fact that
Il is spring, whereas the season itself
is by no means the cause of the SEN
sation. This, more often than not,
say physicians, is due to the fact that
the human system reaches a point In
the spring season when a thorough
cleaning up" is needed. The machin-
cry OF the body needs going over once
in while, just as does that of fac.
tory. Neglected, the bodily functions
become deranged, and one OF the
most common manifestations Of this
is constipation. This, specially In It's
chronic form. means that certain mus
cles of the body are not I'm condition

''rippinq" In Europe.

According to lmmemOrial usage. Eu-
opean servants are entitled to tips as
IN assured part OF their income. At
the hotels tue theory Is that the land
lord furnishes a guest private room
and the use OF the public rooms, heat
and light, food and dishes, but not
mental service. For convenience he
keeps at hand a corps Of servants who
will respond 10 the guests summons,
but at his expense. In old times tray.
elers were attended by their own serv'
ants to wait on them. The modern
custom echoes the ancient. The trav.
eler no longer carries with him ret
niue Of servants, because he can hire
temporarily those Of the landlord The
customary fees are the payment. To
avoid feeling Is really TO cheat the serv-
ants. who need all they can get. heav-
en- knows. A chambermald at the best
hotels receives as wages only about 50
a month. Tipping servants In America
is a regrettable Imitation of the Euro
pean custom without it's resting on the
reasonable basis OF the foreign institu-
tions.-Travel Magazine.

Some years ago one Of the inspectors
Of mines conducted a number OF ex-
perlments on the explosive power OF
coal dust A disused shaft l5e feet
was chosen for the purpose. Samples
Of dust from different collerles were
collected for the purpose. when two
hundredwelght OF dust was emptled
down shaft and a charge OF gun
powder fred, the result was startling.
Huge tongues Of flame sixty feet IN
height shot up from the mouth OF the
shaft. and enormous columns OF smoke
rose high In the air, forming a great

plosion. On the other hand. when high
