Fads Hygienic Necessity.

As Walter Dill Scott suggests.
every business youth, on beginning
his or her business life, should adopt
an avocation, fad, some outside in
terest, only less absorbing than his
business, and should continuously cul-
tivate it as a foil. a rest, saving
grace to his business. Provided this
fad or unbusinesslike interest be one
not too narrow and one not too diff
cult and fatiguing, the recipe is funda-
mentally an important one for this
matter Of business hours as well as
for personal hygiene in general.-G.

tiflc American Monthly.

Raven a Solitary Bird.

Like most Of his tribe, the raven
is omnivorous; his dietary ranges
from "a worm to whale" When his
nest is built beneath some overhang-
ing rock you can often discover Its
position by the remains Of rabbit neat
ly laid in the short grass at the top
of the cliff. In districts where food
is scarce the raven will attack with
out scruple newly born lamb. The
raven has passion for solitude. He
will tolerate in the neighborhood OF
his nest not even his own offspring.
He drives them ruthlessly away as
soon as they are able to shift for
themselves.

The shawl is the mother OF all
clothes. Before scissors were in
vented all humans, who. wore any
thing at all, wore shawls. The cold

the shawl. In the tropics the shawl
was of fg-leaf size. The summer
shawl is our sheet. The toga, and
finally the clothes of today emerged
from the original shawl. Even as
late as our Civil war men wore
shawls for oyercoats. T..
