As she entered her tent she saw an

stretching it's way across her path
She faltered, and indecision and dis

countenance. Then she stopped, put a
large piece of paper over the worm,
picked it up gingerly' at arms length
and deposited it in a ditch some dis

Sergt. Maj. H Lewis Hulburt, as
signed to Gen. Barnett's office in the
Mills building, is responsible for the
practical erection and layout of the
post according to service theory and
experience. He has made himself very
useful He has seen service in many
countries, England. Persia. China and
India, and was in the first rush to the
klondike. He got a medal of honor
in Samoa April /. 1899. In his day he
has been little of everything-"except
a missionary. and that is the one thing
my mother wished me to be-" he says.
SO much to show his opinion is not
narrow. He says these girls at Chevy
Chase camp are the aptest pupils he
has ever had Because-their college
education gives them a readiness of
perception and a mental grasp. because
their gymnasium work and dancing
have given them poise and grace of
carriage and taught them to stand
erect and walk with springy pose and
stride.

Health Benefit of Yawnlna.

Yawning is said to have an exceed
ingly healthful function besides hav-
ing a salutary effect in complaints OF
the pharynx and the eustachian tubes.
According to investigations yawning
is the most natural form of respira-
tory exercise, bringing into action all
the respiratory muscles of the neck
and chest. 1t is recommended that
every person should have a good yawn
with the stretching of the limbs morn
ing and evening for the purpose of
ventilating the lungs and tonifying the
respiratory muscles.
An eminent authority asserts that
this form of gymnastics has remark
able effect in relieving throat and ear
troubles, and says that patients suf-
fering from disorders of the throat
have derived great benefit from it. He
says he makes his patients yawn, by
suggestion or imitation, or by series
of deep breaths with the lips partly
closed
The yawning is repeated six or sew
en- times, and should be followed by
swallowing. By this process the air
and mucous in the eustachian tubes are
aspirated

Americans Good Match Users.

Every man, woman and child in
this country uses an average of ten
matches each day." remarked ]. A.
Hunter of New York, representative
of large match company, at the
Raleigh, says the Washington Post.
1T is estimated that the match manu-
facturers of the United States turn out
every day more than 1,700,000,000
matches. OF this output 1,000,000,000
are consumed in this country. Our
people have come to be very extrava-
giant in the use of matches. A decade
ago a pipe smoker might keep his
smoke going by way of the kitchen
fire and paper lighter; today he
wouldn't think of it. The greater use
of cigarettes also has increased the
consumption of matches. as have gas
and gasoline stoves. which are contin-
ually turned off and relighted. There
has been an increased manufacture of
patent lighters and a new style of
gas stove with patent lighter attached,
and these have helped to cut the sales
of matches, but only to a small ex-

After that he came often to the quie

was devoted to one devouring theme
music. Their preferences were iden
teal, they grew to be friends. one
day Victor Dalzell came to Natalie In
state of great trepidation.
"Oh, Miss Prescott" he said anxious
ly. Il have great favor to ask!
They have placed me on program
for violin solo at the great symphony
concert. The leader says 1t will set

compensation. Oh, if l had only the

light in her eyes.
You will be very careful of the in
strument?" she said.

the delighted enthusiast. "Oh, how
can ever repay you? And with your
presence at the concert, will bring
the very soul out of the yiolin!"
Natalie sat entranced when Victor,
at the concert, began his solo number.
All about her tense, strained faces told
of the general effect of the beautiful
music. The gifted player was given
an ovation, and the pleased face OF
the orchestra leader told that the for
tune of the young violinist was as
sured.
Natalie had gone to the waiting
room when the program was finished.
Victor was to Join her there and &C.
company her home. Suddenly a
scream startled her. The next instant,
followed by excited members Of the
orchestra, the young musician reeled
into the room with bloodless face and
staring eyes.

A doctor was summoned. He looked
grave as he felt the pulse and opened
the eyelid of the insensible young
musician.
Get him to a hospital at once!"
he ordered. IF the strain he is under
is not soon relieved he will lose his
mind"
Natalie heard the others tell Of how
Victor had left the violin unguarded
for a moment to find it gone five
minutes later. She sat softly crying
to herself Natalie was about to pro-
coed slowly home when the leader of
the orchestra appeared hurriedly.

led her to a room where Victor sat,
muttering to himself incoherently:

Mr.. Dalzell-Victor," spoke Natalie
tremblingly, I'VE have found the Ca
zero. See, 1t is here" but he never
even looked up.
May l try an experiment? ?" faltered
Natalie, and, the nurse asserting, she
removed the violin from it's case. Ma

the concert as best she could.
Victor started at the first melodious
note His eyes lost their moody ex-

his face-reason was recalled by the

The Carero brought distinction and

and happiness to both these talented
