There can be little doubt that
one of the objects Of yawningi is the
exercise of muscles which have been
for a long time quiescent and the
acceleration Of the blood and lymph
flow which has in consequence OF
this duiescence become sluggish;
hence its frequency after one has
remained for some time in the same
position-e. e., when waking in the
morning. Cooperating with this
cause is sIecpiness and the shallow
breathing which it entails. This
factor as we'll as muscle quiescenee
is ant to attend the sense OF bore
dom which one experiences in lis
tening to a dull sermon; hence it i

Japanese Advertising.

The japanese seem to get much
more out Of a trademark than we
do. All Of the larger concerns have
a distinct mark. usually some geo
metric design with which every.
thing in any way identified with the
company is plainly marked. In
mediately upon reaching Japan Eu-
ropean tourists begin to study these
marks and after a few days are able
to tell a great deal about com.
merce and shipping simply by hav.

many Japanese goods are known by
these marks By the most illiteratC

On the return voyage OF one OF

two little girls, cousins, Of twelve
and thirteen years. They got on
beautifully together, though they
differed in disposition and character
as well as in appearance, Sallie, the
elder. being an extremely discreet
little woman, while Margaret's
methods were distinctly guileless.
Salhe, too, was tall and slender and
Margaret a real little ball Of hard,

Both their mothers we're too i'll

age was a little more than half over
Sallie descended one day to her

CONCENTRATED FOOD.
tt Would Prove Poor Diet and Dis
astrous to Humanity.

astreus to humanity.
at is notion fondly cherished
by some persons" writes promi-
nent English physician in London
medical journal, that the day will
come when the human race will
subsist entirely on highly concen-
trated food. The time occupied in
eating the daily meals will be saved
hr swallowing a tablet Of concen-
trated essence, and all questions Of
fastidiousness for food will be ban
ished, while the dyspepsia arising
from an overbulky and hastily swal-
lowed meal will finally disappear.
"The idea is of course utterly
fallacious and plainly opposed to
sound physiological teaching. Such
a dietetic consummation thus limo
Gently entertained would probably
end in the extinction of the race, by
disease as a sequence of 'inanition.
The fact is that the .volrpH o. food
serves a definite purpo~c in the
body.
Highly concentrated foods are
prone to be very irritating to the
digestive organs, and they also tend
to exhaust the secretory powers of
the stomach, the digestive juices be-
ing poured out in quantity far in
excess of the requirements of that
food, and thus secretory energy,
which is the key to assimilation, is
uselessly spent.
Concentrated meat essences con-
tanning merely the extractives of
meat are, for example, the most
powerful exciters of gastric secre-
ton that We possess, but when par
taken Of exclusively they avail moth
ing in the direction of real nutri-
ton and lead most likely to serious
waste of tissue-in a word, to star
ystion. =
c~"They serve admirably, however
as a kind of condiment or adjuvant
TO food, preparing the ground fol
its reception and digestion; hence
soup is the first item in the physio'
logically well designed meal. When
kept within reasonable limits the
bulkiness of food excites a healthy
stimulus to the muscular action Of
the stomach and the bowels, and al
together the indications are plair
that the digestive organs are moi
adapted for dealing with highl!
concentrated food.
food must have, so to speak,
physiological ballast before it is &C
ceptable to the digestive processes
The simplest way of reducing tn
bulk Of most foods is BY depriVinl
them of their natural moisture
Eight pounds of mutton or bee
would thus be reduced TO twJ
pounds Of dry substance, bat tn
water must be replaced to a larg
extent before the meat can be cook
Cd or eaten. = : = -
>'sThere are. of course, particula
cases, as, for example, in illness. il
which it is necessary that the die
should be sparing in quantity ar
yet highly nutritious in quality, bu
