DO Not Eat Too Much.

In the April Woman's Home Cont
panion appears an interesting article
entitled "A Healthy Mind in a Heal
thy Body" Following is an extract:
1T is a we'll established fact that
the majority of people eat too much.
They take more food, especially with
under-exercise, than the body can as
simulate, and the result is superhuous
fatty deposits. This is especially true
around middle age, when the body
is no longer growing, and hence does
not required the amount OF food IL
required when the process of growth
as we'll as of waste was going on. The
result is the taking on of superfiuous
flesh, the tendency to exercise still
less, degeneration of the heart mus
cles, hence impaired breathing, which
deprives the body of one of its great
est sources of strength and energy
IAN abundance of pure air with
full deep breathing, and especially
out-of-door air, is one of the first es-
sentials of sound health and unim-
paired vitality. If this can be COM
bined with adequate daily exercise in
the open, whether it take the form of
work or of play, and If the exercise
is as simple as that of walking, so
that it is done regularly and with the
right spirit and purpose back of it
an alert and purposeful mind-so
much the better.
'Sleep is natures great restorer-
one of the great rebuilders of both
mind and body. When we rob them
of their required amount, we are
thereby contracting bills that will
present themselves for settlement
sooner or later, but without fail. 1t
may seem for while that no account
is being kept-but believe me, it is. :"

Otto Bought An Auto.

The following is clipped from an
auto exchange: "Old man Otto bought
an auto, which he ought not to have
done until he had studied how an au-
to ought to be run; but Otto didn't
study so he had himself to thank,
that when Otto cranked the auto, old
Otto was the crank. For old Otto
left the auto with the lever pushed
to go, when he ought to have revers-
ed it, with the power off, you know.
So when Otto cranked the auto, the
auto gave a jump and landed Otto
sprawling with an automatic thump.
But Otto grabbed the auto as the au-
to autoed by, then Otto and the auto
down the road did fly; and at speed
that auto luckless Otto whirled, like
an automatic autocrat, who thinks he
owns the world While the auto hat
ing public stood and watched the au-
to rush, till it ran against lamp post
in a most terrific crush. Then they
sadly laid poor Otto, who has lost his
auto zest, where the autos cease from
troubling and the Ottos are at rest.

A Cnmnlete Change.

Mrs Emerson did all the cooking,
washing, mending and other house
work for her family of five. Among
her other duties was the making and
baking of five loaves of bread three
times a week, for Mr. Emerson and
the growing children had hearty ap-
petites.
At last Mrs. Emerson decided she
must have a vacation.
Il feel she told her husband,
that if / had to stand up to that
bread board and make one more
batch of bread l should drop dead;
I've got to have a change.
Mr.. Emerson was more than will
ling. He had often urged her to take
a rest. 1t was decided that she pack
up that very day and go to visit her
younger sister in Kansas.
Now, Laura said Mrs. Emerson,
as soon as she had got into a loose
house dress and dropped into an easy
chair, I've come to rest and visit
don't want you ever to ask me what
| want to eat, or expect me to turn
my hand to help with thing. I'm
sick and tired of homework, and /
don't want to even hear it mention
ed"
"All right" said Laura, laughing,
you can depend on me. I've always
wanted you to rest and let somebody
else take the work and worry for a
little WHILE
At dinner the second day Mrs. En-
berson said to her brother -in-law
John, do you like bakers bread?"
NO." confessed John, I'VE don't
any of us like it, but Laura has so
much to do that / insist on buying
the bread"
You bring home some yeast this
evening"" said Mrs. Emerson, and
I'll make you some homemade
bread
Two weeks later, when Mrs. Emb-
erson returned home, her husband
was delighted to see how fresh and
rested she looked. Nevertheless, he
tried to speak severely:

Burning a SNOWFALL.

Can you pick up a handful of
snow, pack it into a good solid throw
ing snowball-and then light it with
a match? If you can perform this
trick you are pretty sure to mystify
the onlookers, and the secret of it is
simple enough, once you know it!
The SNOWFALL can be rolled in full
view of the spectators. 1t can also
be passed around so that everybody
may have chance to see that it is
real snow. What they do not see
is that, on one side, lump of camp
hor has been inserted. 1t is that
is lighted. 1t will burn until moth
ing is left of the ball but a she'll.
When there is no snow the same trick
may be performed by thrusting the
camphor into the top of a dish of
cracked ice.-The Youths Compan-
ion.

Meat Prices Will Be High.

The following paragraph is taken
from an article entitled Back to the
Sheepfold." in Farm and Fireside.
Figures taken from the recently
completed list of estimates of the
number of farm animals in the coun-
try by the United States Department
of Agriculture for the past year show
a decrease of $4,000 sheep from
those of 1911. Notwithstanding this,
their aggregate value in 1912 was
as against $1S1, No.
900 in 1911. During the same per-
iod cattle decreased $1,452,O0O and
hogs $4,232, 900. These figures seem
to presage a continuance of high pri-
ces, and should set breeders of all
classes of live stock on their mettle.

Where the Furs Come From.

In the large cities of the world, no
ticeably Paris and London, millions
of rabbit skins are dressed and treat
ed. and bogus furs are sent out from
these manufacturing centers to robe
men and women all over the world.
1t detracts from ones telling of pride
i'm a handsome fur garment to know
that after the furrier, chemist and
dyer are done with the rabbit skin, 1t
may be a tsealskin," a sable" an
otter" mink siberian squir-
rel" "marten,' beaver" or any
other fashionable fur, according to
the demand. The transformation
takes place in the shops which sell
felt to the hatters, carpetweavers,
and felt manufacturers. The skins
are purchased soon after they have
been stripped from the rabbits body
and are stiff and hard when they
reach the sorting room. Experts ex-
anime each skin, and those which
come up to the established standard
are sent to the furriers; but the torn,
understood and punctured pelts are
turned over to the men and women
who strip the hide of its hair for the
feltmaker. The finished garment has
been so transformed that it may sell
under any name, as few people are
judges of such things. -Manufactur-

drunkard has reformed. For years
he was a hopeless case, and the Globe
had paragraph about him every day
telling what particular alley or box
stall he had slept in the night before.
Since he braced up he has become
prosperous, and everybody in town
seems to be disposed to encourage
and help him. That's the way it al
ways goes. There is much talk about
mans inhumanity to man which ma
keith countless thousands mourn, but
it is the general belief that we all
like to kick a man when he's down.
But human beings are better than the
advertisements indicate and they find
more pleasure helping a man up than
kicking him down. Let any has-been
