The Value of Rest,

The inability to rest, either at
night or by means of short respites
from activity during the day, is the
beginning, with many women. Of a
nervous breakdown, writes Ella
Adelia Fletcher in The Delineator,
and should be needed as natures
warning that all Is not we'll, and that
the routine of life, whether of work
or pleasure, must be closely scanned
and so changed as to lessen the
strain. Hurry and excitement, with
constant overstrain, which is work
ing on the nerves, are subtle nerve
MASTERS, for they consume double the
energy required for the mere per-
Torrance of the given act if it were
done respectfully. Moods are to blame
for much of this mischief injected in
| to lives; but we should master our
| moods, not be mastered by them.
The amount of regular sleep re-
quired varies with the constitution,
age and habits of life; the brain
worker, whose drafts on vitality are
the largest, needing the most. At
least seven to nine hours sleep are
| needed by all who lead active lives
and would keep themselves physical
ly and mentally at the summit OF
their powers. Physicians agree that
woman commonly requires at least
an hours more sleep than man; but
also that she bears deprivation OF
rest better. This is due, however, to
the fact that in crises which demand
wakefulness her sympathies and emo
lions are commonly involved, and the
intensity of her interests keep her
alert. Not till the excitement
which in her is an exaltation of spirit
holding her to her duty-is passed
will she feel the loss of rest, but then
she should yield herself to an in
creased amount of sleep, as should
the brain worker after every unusual
ly prolonged effort.

Danger Turks in Opportunities.

A very ancient story says: "a
farmer had a drove OF hogs which he
assembled for their meals by knock
ing on a fence with sticks or stones.
One day the waiting herd detected
the familiar sound, and started of
pell-mell in the direction whence 1t
came. Before they reached the place,
however, to their vast establishment
they also heard it from the other side
and turned and ran pell-mell toward
that And so they ran, first in one
direction and then in another, until
when the farmer himself came down
and raped upon the fence, they
were so completely tuckered out by
chasing the Elusive signals of red
headed woodpeckers drilling trees for
worms that they had no strength to
go and get their food"
In this great American Republic
opportunities are practically mex
haustible. 1t is this fact that consti-
tutes the gravest peril that We have
meet. While we are rushing after
or else are actually employed in try
ing to utilize, some golden opportun-
ity, we hear a dozen others, some sill
yer. others brazen, knocking on the
fence around our little field!
There lies your danger, friend
Can you turn a deaf ear to them?
Can you settle down to till your farm
while the calls Of the city streets are
sounding in your ear? Can you grit
your teeth and hang on to your job
at the forge or the loom, in the dry
goods store or the millinery shop
while the gold-felds of the Klondike
are reckoning you their way? Can
you leave your money on deposit in
the savings-bank while promoters are
faunting dazzling investments in
stocks before your eyes?
How many people I myself have
known who have rushed from one
business to another, until too ex.
hausted in body, mind Or pocket-booE
to reach the fence when the actual
vital, heavenly opportunity knocked
upon the rail!-Charles Frederic

What Are You Doing?

In its appeal for the cooperation
OF men and women in the movement
"for a more beautiful America" the
American Civic Association asks:
What are you doing to improve
and beautify your town?
"Are you planting trees and max
Ing parks?
Are you trying to make your
property owners keep their yards
clean?
Are you preventing the aeeumu-
iation Of unsightly heaps of ashes and
rubbish, encouraging the making OF
gardens, destroying the filth, which
not only Is al annoyance to the eye.
but also Is menace to health?
"Are you endeavoring to stop the
erection of unsightly bill-boards, and
making 1t a criminal misdemeanor
to display In your town unsightly
and immoral posters calculated to
debase the mind of the young or
weak?
Are you helping your school chill

SampIeIess Salesman.

There were half a dozen drumners

lone of them said: He's straight.
He's a Christian. Whatever he tells
you about an article you may know

His word makes samples unneces-

When an Inch is One Hundred Tons.

The rain fell in buckets, the thun-
der racketed terribly, and the light
ming drew zigzag lines of bright gold

he looked at his rain measuring in

seems. I'll explain it to you.
IAN acre is 6,272,640 square inch
es. An inch Of water on an acre Is,
therefore, 6,272,640 cubic inches
That amount at PIT cubic inches tc
the gallon, equals $4,000 gallons. or
100000 pounds, or 100 tons.

A Troubled Day.

Some windows turned sidewise'

A cellar half finished, a roof out OF

I wished 1t to rise in an orderly way
In symmetry fashioned, In beauty
