keep Crank ca.s ciean.

Because all Of the oil contained In
the crank case Of an engine is not used
up before a new supply must be put in,
the novice Is apt TO fail to appreciate
the need Of purging the CASE and re-
newing the entire oil supply from time
to time. This Is absolutely necessary,
however, because the residue left aft
er much oil has been used IA largely
devoid Of its former l%ubricating prop
critics. and contains q large proportion
OF carbon and some water. Adding
fresh oil to this merely dilutes 1t, as
1t were, and furnishes a deceptive re-
suit In the matter Of quality. The ef-
feet Is much the came as though poor
grade OF lubricant we're employed.
Hence 1t is absolutely essential that
the oil be drawn of entirely, at regular
intervals, thrown away and a new sup
ply of fresh oil being put in in Its
stead.

AfqhanIstan Infant MORTALITY.

Infant mortality in Afghanistan is
very heavy. 1t has been said by a
leading medical missionary in Pes.
bawar that, in his opinion, probably
about one-haif the children born In
the country die before reaching the
age of three yea7s. There ara no spe.
"ia! pains exercised in the country to
prevent such mortality, and The wan
dering and generally insanitary mode
of life and the email attention paid to
women and infants at childbirth &C
count for the heavy infant mortality.

DANCING Once Part Of Worship.

We read in the Book OF the Dead
which contains the papyri of Egypt's
most ancient seers and scholars, that
dancing was q part of Egyptian wor-
ship. In fact, the hieroglyphics them
selves, denoting alteration, triumph
after battle, gloom at the death of a
monarch or a high priest, were often
figures OF men or women in dancing
p~ostures.

Dancing Always Popular,

In the very far east Confucius,
who lived nearly 600 years before
Christ, mentions the dancing of war
riors and Of the outcast women. In
the ancient Japanese scrolls constant
pictures appear of dancing girls and
warriors. And in Phoenicia and Luz
cania, Sparta and ancient Greece al
ways We find that dancing was a part
of the life Of the people, just as it is
today.

The very breath of "picnic" was

The party left in all manner of

Their destination was Jefferson

spent by most of the young peo

At the invitation OF our hospita-

ing was further enjoyed until nine
O'Clock, when the ever thoughtful
chaperones declared that the
young folk should not kill them
selves in one day. The picnickers
then continued on their way and
all felt that the day was very,
very short. Many thanks are due
