He Was Relieved,

The other day n person dropped
down in an apoplectic fit Immediately
in front of Il police station and was
carried inside. A moment after a wo-
man forced her way in through the
crowd gathered around the door, ex-
claiming:
"My husband! My poor husband
Clear the way and let In the air!'
She then busted herself by taking
off the mans cravat and performing
other little Offices until surgeon ar
rived, when the patient gradually re-
covered his senses. On this the SER
geant in charge observed that it was
happy relief for his distressed wife
as well as for himself

stracted under the very eyes Of the

GOVERNORS OF HEALTH.

Nervous tissue and arterial blood
ire the master tissues, the control
ing and governing factors in health,
md disturbances of these tissues are
necessarily the cause d. i'll health.
rhe rule of the artery and the con-
rol of the nerve must continue unin-
Lerruptedly in order that physbologi-
gal functioning remains intact. The
body should be looked upon as q, be-
ing complete, no more or less,
each tissue and organ essential to
the whole and the organism as a
whole essential to every part. This
is fundamental and germane to a
living structure, ald hence disturb
ance to the governing and control
ing tissues, the nerves and vascular
channels, must necessarily cause a
break in the concatenation and dis
ease must logically follow.
Thus in the Osteopathic pathology
we look to those influences that
primarily disturb the nerve or artery,
study the disease process or extern
sion from inception to effect and
from primary lesion to morbid re
suits, and note action and interaction

upon organ.-McConnoM & Teal

Rhinestone Hatpins,

Now that hatpins play such an i'm
portant part III the accessories of the
correctly dressed girl and woman they
are much more carefully chosen and
matched up than formerly. Four. at
the least, are required to hold the
modern hat securely on the head, and
in many cases five and six are worn.
1t is the correct thing this winter,
AS ii was last summer, to have the
hatpins alike; if not in shape, the
stones should be the same and In the
arts and crafts pins the design and
enamel correspond in each.
The preferred pin for this winter is
set with rhinestones. the huge head
being in cabochon, oval or diamond
shape With the satiny beaver hats
and those of silky fur and panne vel
vet these pins are exceptionally smart.
Another very good looking set of pins
has huge cloudy cabochon sapphires
surrounded with tiny rhinestones, and
those of faceted jet are also popular.

He was the worst boy in school; she
was the teacher. She was angered By
his stubbornness; he was defiant. She
took him to the hall for punishment.
Angrily she administered the pena .ty.
and-then somehow Il great wcre of
pity for the boy swept over her She
looked at the worn coat of tle little
fellow. She thought of the frail body
deprived of nourishing food. She
thought of the hard and loveless home
and of the starved soul Of the poor
kid.
Tears sprang to the teachers eyes
as the boy waited for further punish
ment. Then he saw the tears. His
own eyes grew moist and overfowed.
Thinking of how the poor boy had no
chance, in an impulse of love she put
her arms around the boy, and they
cried together.
That is religion.
She and the boy both found it.-Mor-
rill (kan.) News.

Rloodhounds to Halt an Uprising.

Storm swept Jamaica was in 113S
the scene of a rising of the negro
plantation slaves. At first there were
brushes between the soldiers of the
island garrison and the insurgents, and
lives were lost on both sides. Then
the commander, General Walpole, be-
thought him of having 100 dogs trained
to track slaves brought from Cuba.
These powerful and savage brutes,
misnamed bloodhounds. were really or
the mastiff tribe, says the London
Chronicle. After being muzzled they
were led to the position taken up by
the malcontents. General Walpole
sent a message to the slaves threaten
ing TO unmuzzle and unleash the ami
mails if they did not surrender The
negroes, who had shown themselves
to be by no means afraid of the bull
lets of the military. were now mad
with terror. They threw down their
arms and gave in. Remarks con
temporary historian of Jamaica, ut is
pleasing to observe that not a drop of
blood was spilled after the dogs ar
rived in the island"

Eindino His Bride

In one part of the canton of Ticino,
in Switzerland, very quaint marriage
ceremony prevails. The bridegroom
dresses in his Sunday best" and, ac-
companied by as many friends and rel
atives as he can muster for the fete,
goes to claim his bride. Finding the
door locked, he demands admittance.
The inmates ask him his business, and
in reply he sOlicits the hand of his
chosen maiden. If his answer be
deemed satisfactory he is successive
ly introduced TO Il number of matrons
and maids, some perhaps deformed
and others old and ugly. Then he is
presented to some large dolls, all of
which he rejects with scorn, amid gen
eral merriment. The bewildered bride
groom, whose impetuOsity and temper
are now sorely tried. is then informed
that his ladylove is absent and in
vited in to see for himself. He rushes
into the house and searches from room
to room until he finds her. in her bridal
dress ready to go to church. Then are
his troubles over and his state as a
benedict assured.

White suggests the formal type again.

To Make a Glass Gutter.

A glass cutter can easily be made
with an ordinary mapping pen and a
small piece of carborundum or car
bide of silicon. Cut off part Of the
nib to form small tube. Fit crys-
tai or part of one of carborundum into
the tube, take 1t out again and dip one
end In cement and replace it. Next
wind piece of fine wire tightly
around the tube and part of the handle
and fix it in notch cut in the latter
Put 1t aside for day to allow the ce.
ment to harden. A glass cutter made
thus will do its work as we'll as the
expensive diamond and a great deal
better than the ordinary wheel cutter.
