An Optimist's Essay.

A pessimist is q son Of the man who
didn't believe there was any such thing
as electricity.
He is an offspring Of the man who
was sure that the horseless carriage
would never come, and nephew Of
the man who was willing to bet money
that men would never fly. r.
A pessimist is direct descendant Of
the man who was sure that wireless
telegraphy was FOOLS dream and q
submarine merely the creation cf flc-
ton writer's brain.
The pessinist's ancestory scoffed at
the telephone. the typesesting machine,
the twenty story building, anaesthetics
and every forward step the optimists
have taken for the betterment Of hui
man life. .... .-H
II the pessimists Of the past had
been right men would still be living
In caves end trying to get their meals
with clubs and flint arrows. And evil
dentlg they died without publicly con-
Tossing their mistakes, for their pessi-

going to be cannot possibly come to
pass. They seem to be born with the

Speed of Bullets.

The rate of fall of the bullet from
the line of projection is fixed by the
laws Of gravity, hence the more rap
idly the bullet is made to pass from
the rifle to the target the fatter will

accurate the estimation of distance re-
quired and the less the chances Of
error through an inaccurate estimate
Of distance.

cuitiuating ADJUSTMENTS.

Don't provide inducements to get a.
child to love amusements. 1t may en-
courage habit that win sadly inter-
fere with a sincere and useful life.
Don't make a boy feel that he cannot
waste too much time ia having fun,
and catering to his senses. Life is.
real and earnest. and amusement Is adj
missible at times, but should not be,
the rule. The manly youth is for fun.
but he is not always engaged in striv-
Ing for his own pleasure. He should
not be educated into that idea Of life.
He should not be furnished with in
clinations away from what is true and
real in life. It is serious matter

alton. Providing amusement is apt to-
prove an unnatural adjunct in educa-

A Boost For Barley.

4
Barley is strangely neglected by the
cook of today" says writer In the
Woman's Home Companion. "As 1t
contains more starch and sugar and
less gluten than wheat, 1t might well
take the place of the potato on our Ia
bles and this with benefit to purse and
health. 49,. --. s ..
"One cup of barley will swell to five
times its original size when cooked.
and its uses are wonderfully varied.
"As breakfast dish with sugar and
cream it Is rich and satisfying; for
dinner, as garnish for meat or with
rich meat gravy, it makes a savory
entree; at tea time cold steamed barley
cut in slices and Drowned in hot butter,
then served with maple sirup, is dell
ciOus. ....r.
Combined with dried or fresh fruits
It makes as wholesome desserts as rice.
Indeed, there is no way in which rice
may be prepared in which barley can
not be cooked with just as good re-
suits. Barley requires a long time to
cook properly. but now we have the
cereal cooker and the fireless cooker
and with them the opportunity to have
the perfect cereal"

Queer Use For Cordite.

Some years ago Lord Haldane star
tied the house of commons when re-
plying to a remark made by another
member as to the danger attached to
the use Of cordite by saying that he
himself possessed walking stick
made of cordite which he sometimes
brought down to the house and Neft In
the cloakroom. An uneasy look stole
over the. faces of the members present,
but in scientific and highly technical
speech his .lordship explained that
cordite was perfectly innocent sub
stance until brought into contact with
dangerous allies. and without certain
ingredients necessary to convert 1t into
an explosive it might be handled with
impunity. At the same time it was
noticed that Lord Haldane's stick was
given a wide berth when it was seen' In
the clOakroom.

Water For the Baby.

. Infants suffer from not hav-

. bies are thirsty and frequently c
. cry from the discomfort due to {
D thirst. {
In proportion to its weight an
o average infant during the first {
0 year Of life requires little more {
o than six times as much water {
o as an adult. During the time
o when the child is upon an entire
o " fluid diet the addition Of much
o water other than that supplied
o by the food is unnecessary. The
O food breast milky Of all young
O mammals consists of from 80 to
O 90 per cent of water. This Is {
@ needed for the solution Of GER {
O tain parts Of the food, such as {
O the sugar and some Of the pro-
@ teids. and for the suspension Of I
O the other proteids and the emul-
o sified fat. All the food is thus
o dissolved and infinitely divided
o so as to be the more readily act {
o ed upon by the feeble digestive
o organs Of the infant.
O When the feeding becomes less
o frequent water to drink (from
o bottle with nipple on it) should
be given to drink between the
o feelings. In summer time espe-
o cially babies suffer q great deal
