A Grasshopper in the Hand.

Louis Agassiz was passionate on
the subject of substituting brooks for
books in teaching. In his day bugs
were considered too disgusting to
study directly; you just read about
them in books. His position as a
trainer of nature teachers gave him
the chance to revolutionize all this,
and while lecturing on grasshoppers
he made each teacher hold one in the
hand. This caused some Of the ladies
considerable distress, and they used
to pretend that they accidentally
dropped the grasshoppers. But Agas-
siz always noticed this and would not
go on till the grasshopper was picked
up again.
Now what do you know about that?

The JOYFUL Noise.

Every so often the Bible mentions
the joyful noise before the Lord and
always the joyful noise is praise.
Grown folk and children alike enjoy
that joyful noise both when it is d.
rected toward themselves and toward
other people. They thrive upon it.
When the baby manages to per-
form a new movement or to utter a
new word, how he does beam at his
mothers applause. "Good, good" she
calls. Good baby. Mothers good
child Chuckles and dimples and
gay prancings express the lift of the
little heart under the stimulus of the
joyful noise.
The self-conscious children from

blush and glow in response to praise.
They, too, thrive in its atmosphere.
but they like it better in private.

beam affectionately upon him as you

keep on this way, and you will be a
world winner" how that boy does ex.
pand There's nothing like giving
him the impression that he's pretty
good and that you know 1t.
Girls are often overlooked when
praise is being passed out. They are
usually shy about telling their good
deeds, and parents are usually too
busy to speak about them when they
come upon them, or perhaps too shy
to speak about what they discovered.
Or, too, deeply stepped in the old doc
trine that praise makes for vanity
and vanity is sin.
II always did good work in school
and college," said young teacher.
but my folks never gave me a word
of praise. When I won prize they
seemed to take 1t as a matter OF
course. When I stood at the head OF

There are families in my district,
families where every penny counts,
who have party when a son or
daughter reaches some coveted goal
such as graduation from school and
college. The house is furbished, the
lights are turned on, music brought
in, flowers and fruit and gifts and
friends, all celebrate the glad event

Necessity Of Drinking Water.

In Winter thirst does not jog one
into taking a drink as often as in
Summer. Also, there is not so much
moisture lost through perspiration.
But several long drinks Of Adams
ale" are necessary in Winter.
The water quota for a person in
normal health is six or eight glasses
every day.
Most articles Of food contain water,
as shown by the fact that they lose
weight in drying. Two-thirds the
weight of the human body is water
IAN infant needs to take daily, in
some form, about one-seventh OF Its
weight in water. Most Of this is alb
sorbed from its food" But even the
very young baby should also have
plain boiled water to drink between
feedings. The water should be boiled

sterilized bottle. cooked and kept FOR
the days supply.
The daily loss Of water from the
body is about four and one-half pints.
| To supply this daily loss, about six or
eight glasses should be taken every
| day in addition to the water which is
| in food. When water is not taken In
sufficient volume, the volume Of the
| blood is diminished. AS a result the
blood pressure is lowered.
School children and infants should
be supplied with sufficient water. 1t
is said that a child of IS pounds needs
as much water daily as an adult of
140 pounds. It would be well If all
offices were supplied with water cool
ers, so it would be easy for everybody
| to get drink several times day
| Individual cups or paper drinking
cups only should be used in public
| places.
Disease is transmitted through the
common drinking glass. Almost
everywhere its use has been discarded

drinking glass cannot be too strongly
condemned. If a glass ornaments

sweet varieties are best.
Seedless chiliS are also good ouys

makes each dish a new delight, rather

gold braid that appeals most to the

However, in some of our Western
states housewives adorn the beams Of
their kitchens with rope of chilli pep
