WE CALL 1T A MAN.

The following is given out from
good authority" and We presume it
is true, for 1t has been used by the
press in confidence:
An average man of $50 pounds
contains the constituents found in l.
200 eggs. There Is enough gas in
him to all a gasometer of 3,649
cubic feet. He contains enough iron
to make four tenpenny nails. His
fat would make seventy-five candles
and a good-sized cake of soap. His
phosphate contents would make 81
064 boxes of matches. There is
enough hydrogen in him in combina-
ton to fill a balloon and carry him
above the clouds. The remaining
constituents. of a man would yield, If
utilized. six teaspoonfuls of salt, a
bowl of sugar, and ten gallons of wa
ter. A man has 500 muscles, 1,0OO,-
100000 cells, 200 different bones,
-four gallons of blood, several hundr-
ed feet of arteries and veins.
more than twenty-five feet of intes-
tines, and millions of pores. His
heart weighs from eight to twelve
ounces. its capacity from four to six
ounces in each ventricle, and its size
is 5x3 " k u inches. II is a hollow,
muscular organ, and pumps twenty
two and one-half pounds of blood
every minute. In twenty-four hours
the heart pumps sixteen tons. II
beats about seventy-two times a min
ute. In one year an average mans
heart pumps 11.6sO,O00 pounds of
blood. The heart is a willing slave,
but 1t sometimes strikes-and it al
ways wins.-Washington Journal.

GOGGLES FOR AUTOMOBILIsTs.

Those who motor should wear Cog
giles, especially If they drive. The
glass in cheap goggles is of the poor
est quality, and is injurious to the
eyes. Various scientific tests have
been made by competent experts,
showing that almost all cheap, color
ed spectacles contain waves, bubbles,
retroactive power and other imper-
fections that render them unfit for
use. II plain glass goggles are de-
sired, they should be perfect in their
%plainness. Amber goggles are better
than smoke or blue, as they protect
the Y e from the suns most imrritat-
inequalities; besides this. objects can
be more clearly seen through amber
glasses than through glasses of any
other color. If goggles are worm,
they should be large and convexed
outward, and should fit as closely to
the face as possible. The use of
colored goggles while automobiling
protects the eyes from the sun and
also from the irritating effects of the
wind. and, furthermore, lessons the
liability of foreign bodies. such as
sand and dirt. being driven into the
eyes. All that has been said of auto
mobilists applies equally well to mo-
torcyclists. Ii you drive a car or a
motorcycle wear amber goggles
made to suit your vision If neces-
sary,) but do not purchase cheap
You cannot afford to injure
your eyes, and, besides this, cheap
goggles will probably cost you an oc-
ulist's bill in the end.

terrible power. The very mules toss
ed their heads uneasily and tugged
at the reins as If they felt them
selves pursued by some fearful. thing.
Straight and hard, with terrific
velocity, the wind was coming down
through the mountain passes and
sweeping across the wide miles of
desert, gathering the sand as it came.
Swiftly the golden mist extended over
their heads, a thick yellow fog,
through which the sun shone DULY
with a weird unnatural light. Then
the singing binding. choking blast
was upon them with pitiless, savage
fury. In a moment all signs of the
trail were obliterated. Over the high
edges of the drift the sand curled
and steamed like blizzard snow.
About the outfit it whirled
and eddied. cutting the faces of the
men and forcing them, with closed
eyes to gasp for breath.

FAMILY SUFFERS FROM
BRUTE'S INDULGENCE.

With three scantily clad, sobbing
children at her side and a baby of but
a few months In her arms, Mrs. Mar
gle Fowler came to the Salt Lake
City police station Saturday night to
enlist the aid of the authorities in
bringing her husband to justice. She
asserted that Leonard Fowler, the
husband. had brought his family from
Idaho to Salt Lake last spring. He
had been working at odd jobs about
the city, but spending for liquor
money that should have gone for
clothing for the family, his wife said.
Three days ago. having been un-
able to get a Job In Salt Lake, Fowler
declared his intention Of going to
Bingham. He stripped their rooms
on Second West Of the little remain
ing furniture and sold 1t. his wife
said. With the money he established
his family in a room at a hotel, say
ing that he would take the remainder
for the trip to Bingham.
Friday night his family was turned
out into the cold, the room rent hav-
ing been paid only up till that night.

Professor Edward Lee Th~orndike.

without vacations, which he regards
as an u-nnecessary luxury.
During no waking moment" he
says. lis there any legitimate ex-
cuse of idleness on the part of the
mind. Instead of a rest or vacation,
the mind should be given new work.
mo one should rest an instant,
save when sound asleep. The more
the mind does the more it can do.
Ny ten rules for being able to work
all the time are as follows:
"Sleep all that is possible. Get rid
of all physical ills. When one inter-
est flags. find a new one.
Always keep on hand a supply Of
motives or desires. Never learn by a
roundabout method what can be
learned directly. Never allow the
mind to dwell on a subject that may
not be useful.
Waste no effort. Never worry.
Never become excited unnecessarily.

MADONNA YET TO BE PAINTED.

Apropos of pictures of the Madonna
of which we have so many master
pieces. particularly those of Raphael,
II seems strange that not one of the
great painters ever thought of por-
traying the Blessed Virgin in her de-
clining years. She lived a consider
able length of time after her divine
Son had parted her company by His
ascension, inst how long has not been
historically determined, but an APP
propriate conceptionlof how she might
have looked shortly before her de-
mise and assumption into Heaven
would have nobly taxed the creative
powers of the most original artists of
the brush. An editor recently point
ed out this fact:
There Is a picture yet unpaint-
ed. 1t Is the picture OF the aged
Madonna. A host of artists have put
on canvas their dreams of the virgin
mother brooding over her babe.
Many have painted her in her eager
hope for her growing boy. More
have sought to delineate the awful
sorrow OF mater dolorosa' at the
cross. But who has had imagination
to show the face of ~grayhaired Mary
in her latest days? Perhaps it is
beyond the reach Of human genius.

Walk less than two hundred yards
