FILLING THE LUNGS.

Correct and Deep Breathing Is Esssn-
tial to Good Health.
No piece of advice the physician can
give will bear more frequent repetition
than the pithy sentence, Breathe
deeply" 1t is a perfectly simple rule
of health, yet it is constantly broken.
There are two ways to learn to
pline are poor, as is the case with most
insufficient breathers. II Is a good plan
TO join gymnasium or calisthenic class
and learn TO use the lungs as baby
learns to use its feet and hands. But
remember that lessons in breathing
viii do no good if the scholar thinks he
is absolved from his task except when
he is in the class.
A simpler method for those who
have not time or opportunity to at
tend a gymnasium is to turn life's daily
routine into a continuous discipline in
breathing. II the poor breather takes
the trouble to watch himself carefully
he will find that when he is engaged
upon any work that calls for close at
tention he does. not even breathe as
deeply as usual; he almost invariably
holds his breath. Thus the blood cur
rent IS vitiated when IL ought to be
cIeansed. and the worker exhausts
himself, not so much by his labors as
by his neglect.
Draw in deep drafts of air every !
time you take a breath. and every lit |
tie while stop everything else and I'll /
your lungs a few times with breaths /
that test their capacity. You Will be
surprised to see the Improvement that
it will make IN your general condition.

PRUNING BY RAIN.
One of Natures Many Methods of
THINNING Her Forests.


Nature has many ways of thinning
and pruning and trimming her forests
lightning strokes, heavy SHOWS and
storm winds to shatter and blow down
whole trees here and there or break off
branches as required. The results OF
these methods have observed in diff
ferent forests, but only once have /
seen pruning by rain.
The rnin froZe on the trees as n fell
and grew so thick and heavy that
many OF them lost third or more of
their branches. The view OF the
woods after the storm had passed and
the sun shone forth was something
never to be forgotten. Every twig
and branch and rugged trunk was en-
cased in pure crystal ice. and each oak
and hickory and willow became fairy
crystal palace. Such dazzling bril-
liza nee, such effects of white light and
irised light, glowing and flashing, /
had never seen, nor have ! since.
This sudden change of the leafiess
woods to glowing silver was. like the
great aurora. spoken of for years and
is one OF the most beautiful OF the
many pictures that enrich my life
md besides the great shows there
were thousands OF others, even in the
coolest weather, manifesing the ut
most ineness and tenderness OF beau
" and affording noble compensation for
and pain.-Atlantic Monthly.
