The Marching Soma.

No one knows the inspiration of :,
tramping song better than the soldier
and most regiments have their favor
lite airs, which they love to yell when
on march. The men of the Manches-
ter regiment have a fine reputation
for singing on the march, and two OF
their favorite songs are "Killaloe" and
Brian Boru." both Of which give op-
portunity for some hearty shouts al
intervals. Similarly the Yorkshires
when route marching, enliven the way
with Dan Tucker" a song in which
the words are OF no account and the
tune a series Of diabolical yells.-Lon
don Chronicle.

HABITS ARE TYRANTS.
Cha Angling Them Too Suddenly 10 Apt
to Produce Bad Results.

Cha neine Them Too Suddenly 10 Apt
to Produce Bad Results.
Those who form sudden resolutions
TO break of their habits, no matter
whether they are good or bad. may be
laying themselves open TO an illness
A man who for the last twelve years
has made a rule OF spending one week
OF his holiday each year In bed depart
ed from the custom last year and for
the first time throughout that period
had an illness which kept him from
business. The human body can shape
itself to practically any conditions or
habits. but IL those conditions are dis
continued suddenly one is almost sure
to be i'll.
In fact, it is the opinion of a well
known physician that any kind OF hab-
il is bound to hit back" IL il be dis
continued too abruptly. No man can
suddenly switch of meat TO a yegeta-
BILE diet. for instance. and remain well.
Here is = common instance OF how
the body adapts itself TO environment.
A man is kept to his bed for two or
three weeks. When he gets up he finds
IL difficult to walk for the first day or
two. He puts down this trouble to
weakness. But his legs are not really
weaker. 1t is simply that their mocha
nism is upset
De Quincy is a notable example OF
the way habits become chains, which, IL
broken. bring Illness and often death.
The famous writer had accustomed
himself to taking four ounces of iauda-
mum a day. He would certainly have
died IL he stopped this daily dose

IN PASSING.


Gaily decked bushes of autumn's
tint,
Red with the warmth of summers
passing flame,
Break into splendor. after showers
of rain,
And these are joys
Dark, melancholy brown of gaunt,
dead limbs,
Flung ghost-like, from the bitter
tree of life,
Cast shadows, as they fall, on the
paths of strife,
And these are sorrows.
Sunlight and shadow, and twilight
dim,
The grayish mystery of birth and
death,
A hoyering-a pause--a catch OF
heath,
And life Is done.
