An old man sighed as he took his golden. haired, laughing grandson upon hia knee and stroking his shining tresses, said "Ah how much J should like to FEEL LIKE a cbild again The little hoy looked up into his grandfather's face and remarked "Then why don't you get mamma to iipauji you ? "Your daughter's voice," said the professor after the first lewson, really has a fine timbre." There," said Mrs. Rocksley, "I always know it. I've told my husbniul ever since the day Adeline was born that she took after him. lie was in the lumber business when we wore married."

WHAT THE DOCTORS SAY. How MEN KILL THEMSELVES.—There are three serious mistakes of which many people are guilty, and which undoubtedly lie at the root of a large proportion of the physical ail- ments from which so many suffer. We do not say that there are not many others, but these su e more commonly perpetrated than the rest. The first js, that it is necessary to eat a large quantity of food to become healthy and strong. This is a grave mistake. The system only needs sufficient nourishment to repair the waste that has taken place. Besides, the digestive Hu ids are not secreted in indefinite quantity, but in proportion to immediate )H'ed. Hence, food taken ill excess of requirements, being only partially digested' acts as a foreign substance—i.e., a poison—and in addition unduly taxes the system to dispose of the unnecessary waste. The second is, the performance of labour, either mental or physi- cal, when not in a fit condition. This is another grievous error. Nature invariably displays warning signals when the safety limit has been reached. The tired eye-the aching head-the painful back—are all eloquent reminders to cease from labour. The individual who per- sists in disregarding these protests of tired nature is guilty of a crime against his own IxMig, and must not feel himself unjustly treated when lie is called upon to pay the penalty —as he undoubtedly will be. The third error is, rob one's self of the hours that should • devoted to sleep (by appropriating them to business or pleasure), under the impression that it is time gained. This is perhaps the most pre- valent mistake of the three, but by no means the h ast pernicious in its effects. Night is Nature's period for recuperation—when she is engaged in repairing the ravages caused by the exertions of the day. And to interfere with this process is to invite disaster. BURNS AND SCALDS.—For these there is no- thing better than the white of an egg. which may be poured over the wound. It is softer than col- lodion as a varnish for a burn, and, being al- ways on hand, can immediately be applied. It is more cooling than the I- sweet oil and cotton," which was formerly supposed to be the surest application to allay the smarting pain. It is the contact with the air which gives the extreme discomfort experienced from ordinary accidents of this kind, and anything which excludes air and prevents inflammation is the best thing to JJC at once applied. The egg is also con- sidered one of the best remedies for dysentry. Beaten up lightly, with or without sugar, swal- lowed at a gulp, it tends, with its emollient qualities, to lessen the inflammation of the stomach and intestines, and by forming a transi- ent coating on these organs, to enable nature to assume her healthful sway over the diseased body. Two, or at the most three, eggs per dtij would be the most that would be required in ordinary cases, and since the egg is not merely a medicine, but food as well, the lighter the diet the better. NEEDS OF THE BODY.—Our bodies require a certain amount of mineral matter or nourish- ing salts for health. Chalk, iron. phosphorous, are all needed, and they are found in the best form in fresh vegetables and fruits. Lettuce is one of the most important of all, for it aids the cleansing of the blood and refreshes the entire organism. Sorrel and spinach are to be highly recommended for enriching the blood, especially in cases of anaemia. It should be noted that sorrel and spinach ought not to be covered while cooking, as otherwise the poisonous matter in the leaves cannot escape. The value of asparagus as a blood-purifier and an agent acting on the kidneys is well known. Beans should be eaten only when young, as when .they are old they are difficult to digest. Apples are very rich in iron, as are all of the fruits and vegetables that have any red colouring matter. Beets when young and tender are excellent, and it is said that black currants are a cure for anaemia in its earlier stages. USEFUL HINTS.—Convulsions may be fre- quently cut short like magic by turning the patient on his left side. The nausea as an a Her effect of chloroform or ether narcosis may be generally controlled in the same manner. When chilly from exposure, breathe very deeply and rapidly, and the in- crease in bodily warmth will be surpris- ing Vomiting after the administration of chloroform may frequently be prevented by re- placing the inhaler with a linen cloth steeped in vinegar, allowing it to remain over the face for some time. People who have weak hearts should always have their principal meal in the middle of the day. and with as little water as possible. Many a woman's ruin is due to the old idea that a woman can safely leave her bed on the tenth day after confinement. 11' THE BEADING CURE FOR COLFRSUMPTION.— Reading aloud has frequently been recom- niended as of beneSt to persons affected with any chest complaint. The recommendation is made because in all cases of lung trouble it is important for the sufferer to indulge in exer- cise by which the chest is filled and emptied of air. for the exercise is strengthening to the throat, lungs, and muscles of tho chest. Read- iualoud can be practised by all, and besides being a curative act can be a pleasure and pro- fit to both reader and hearers. In this treatment it is recommended that an overdose be avoided, that the reading be deliberate, without being allowed to drag, that the enunciation be clear, the body be held in an easy, unstrained upright position, so that the chest will have free play, and that the breathing be natural, and as deep as possible, without undue effort. < it DIGESTIBLE MILK.-Dr. R. T. Edes suggests a new method of preparing milk where other methods have proven unsatisfactory. A pint of milk is generally warmed. Jnto it is dropped, very slowly and with constant stirring, about 20 minims of dilute hydrochloric acid. The milk should be stirred until it cools. In this way a very line flocculent coagulum is produced, floating in the whey, which is easily accessible to the digestive secretions, while the whole fluid has lost somewhat of the flat and cloying taste which makes it unacceptable to so many, It will be noticed that milk prepared in this way differs from the various wheys in the highly important particular that the casern is retained and used, instead of being separated out as a distinct product, while it avoids the bitterness of pancreatinised milk. LOOK AFTER YOUR BABIES. Mothers should be more careful in giving their babies the indiarubber mouth-pieces known as comforters." It may be, and probably is, that to the infants themselves the comforter is sweet to the taste, but, without doubt, it is often very bitter in the stomach. For the ordinary routine is that the blind indiarubber teat falls on the floor, from whence it is directly lifted and placed straightway between the infant's lips, and this, not once or twice in the day, but repeatedly. Or, if the child is a little older, it throws the teat in play on the iloor, and crawls or walks after, it, replacing it in its ordinary position when reached. The danger of this is at once obvious, and we trust mothers will benefit by this warning* PLANTS IN BEDROOMS.—Few people know how injurious it is to sleep in a room with plants or flowers. All bnlb plants, especially lilies jasmine, laurels, and any strong-scented bl00111, load the air with thcil" perfullle, which though pleasant in small quantities, becomes heavy and sickening after a time, and prQduce.s headache and drowsiness on waking, and some- times more serious ills. Curiously enough, fruit has the same effect, so should never be in a bedroom, which ought to be as airy as possible. It is really advisable to have the windows wide open all day loug, and partially so at night, during both summer and winter )t the inmate can stand it. ——mmmm— the inmate can stand it.

--JIØ 4" Lord Bathurst, who did not nialca a return witli- in the statutory 28 days of his expenses on elec- tion unopposed for the Gloucestershire County Council, has obtained relief in the Vacation Court from the penalties incurred thereby on the ground that he was serving in South Africa at the time. Lloyd's Vigo ngent reports that the British schooner Muriel Winter, of St. John's, N.F., was run into by the Spanish barque Jaime Mir and foundered at sea. All on board except one mall were saved and landed at Tigo by the Jaime Mir. George March, a stoker at some shoe works at Roth well, Northamptonshire, was feeding the gas-producing apparatus with coal when he fell from a ladder, and alighting on his head died in a few minutes. "Accidental death" was the verdict. It is stated that a young cotton operative named Middlehurst, who has been employed in a mill in Manchester, has received intimation that she has been loft a legacy of Y.10,000 by an uncle who died in Australia. She has gone to London to aee the solicitors who have the matter in hand.

TIT-BITS. I T'JT AMERICA.—Why," asked the casual ob- server, •• did you shoot that man?" "Because." replied the Chairman of the Civic Federation, always glad to supply reasonable information, he would otherwise have died of consumption, and wo r. r • trying to have our town rocognised as a health resort, you know." So NEAR AND YET So FAR.—Fizzer: "I ten yon what, old boy. it's a case that makes my heart bleed. The fellow has died and left a wife and six little ones entirely unprovided for." Quizzer Didn't he ever have his life insured ? Oh, no; no company would risk him. His profession was too liazardous." Why, what was he I A life insurance agent." CARRIED NO SAMPLES. -He travelled for an important wholesale house. Seated comfortably in the railway carriage, he found beside him a rather sedate-looking gentleman, with whom he sought to converse, and, after the manner of his kind, began bv telling what goods he sold, for whom he sold, to whom he sold, and in what large quantities he sold. And you. my friend," he said, "what is your line ? Brains," answered his sedate and would- be retiring companion. Ah! brains, you say? That must be nice! You carry no samples, eh r" POOR ROTHSCHILD !—Baron Rothschild one day entered an old curiosity shop to buy some paint- ings. The dealer brought out his rare old pictures, dusted them, and set them in the best light. "Look at this Rembrandt; quite authentic, M. le Baron." Authentic, you say ? You have got there a Raphael of the first style, which is a good deal more authentic." "Oh, oh!" said the dealer; why, you are a connoisseur, M. le Baron!" "I ? observed Rothschild, with a sigh if I had gone iito the old curiosity business I should have made It fortune." A SLIGHT MISTAKE.—Swindler: "Madam, I have called for the suit of clothes which needs brushing and pressing." Lady of House What tiuit "Your husband's Sunday suit, ma'am. He called at the shop as he went down this morn- ing." "And he said I was to let you have them ?" Yes'ni." Did he appear in goodhealth and spirits?" Why, certainly." "Look and act naturally ? Of course. Why do you ask ? "Because he has been dead eighteen years, and I have some curiosity on the subject!" I—I have made a mistake, perhaps!" "Perhaps you have. The man you saw go out of here an hour ago is my brother. Good morning." The swindler levanted. HE WASN'T CARVING A SPIDER.—At one of the festivities given during the Brighton season by a party of commercials, Mr. Brown had escorted several of his acquaintances into the supper-room .in order to partake of the liberal refreshments, What are you for, Mr. Smith ?" said he, taking up his position in front of a fat fowl. I'll take a if you please." And you, Mr. Robinson ? I'll trouble you for a leg. thank you." And what may I give yoit, Mr. Williainson ? "A leg, if you please." Confound you!" said Mr. Brown, in- furiated, "take the blessed bird and divide it your- selves. D'ye think it's a spider I'm carving ? Us Coits.An old lady who resided near Darlington used to collect orange-peel, which she took to the marmalade factories for sale. Being accustomed to take her supply once a month, she set off very early to the station, with her peel in two large baskets. She had got comfortably seated in a compartment, when I entered. I said to her Are you aware that this is a smoking compartment, madam ? Ay, sir," replied the old lady; upon which I drew out a cigar and puffed away, thinking my fellow-passenger would change her carriage at the next stopping-place. Imagine my surprise when the old lady produced a short clay pipe and lighted it, and, before putting it in her mouth, she remarked: "Ay, but us commer- cials does like wer bacca!" NOT TO BE PUMPED.—A small Scotch boy was summoned to give evidence against the father, who was accused of making disturbances in the street. Said the bailie to him: Come, my wee mon speak the truth, and let us know all ye ken about this affair." "Weel, sir," said the lad, "d'ye ken Inverness Street?" "I do, laddie," replied his worship. "Weel, ye gang along it, and turn into the square, and across the square-" "Yes, yes," said the bailie, encouragingly. "An* when ye gang across the square ye turn to the right, and up into High Street, and keep on up High Street till ye come to a pump." Quite right, my lad; proceed," said his worship. I know the old pump well." "Well," said the boy, with the most infantile simplicity, ye may gang and pump it, for ye'll no pump me." THEY NEVER FORGAVE Him.-Some years ago there lived in the town of Nottingham a Quaker of the name of Fox-Sammy Fox, as he was gener- ally called. He was much in request to take some part in the management of the town, but never had time. At length, however, he was induced to 9it on the Board of Guardians. The first meet- ing he went to they never forgot. Soon after the business commenced he slipped out of the room to make an inspection of the house. Coming to one room, where there was a table set out for a feast, he asked one of the attend- ants what it meant. This is where the gentlemen dine when the business is over." How long will it be before it is ready?" "It's ready now." Fetch it in. Now bring in the paupers." This l' was done, and Sammy set them to eat up the Guardians' dinner. W"- ANOTHER MOVING JOB.—" Moving again, Fitz ?" asked Pullet, as Fitzgoober came out of the gate with a wash-tub tightly clasped in his arms and trailing a mirror behind him. Yes," moaned the afflicted man, mopping his perspiring brow. I'm going to leave this hole." "What for? Don't you like the neighbourhood?" "Oh, no, not that; the neighbours are all right." "Water not good, maybe ? No better can be found in the district." "The rent hasn't been raised, has it?" "No; that's the reason I'm going to seek another house." "What!" exclaimed the surprised Pullet; "mov- ing from a place because the rent has not been raised. Surely you don't object to that, Fitz ? No, I do not," sadly replied Fitz, as he started back for the kitchen set of furniture; but the landlord does-you know." REPORTERS' DODGES EXPLAINED.—Interviewer: Alderman Swelhed, I have come to get your views on the proposed change in the curriculum of the grammar school." Alderman Swelhed: Curri- culum What's that ? I'm agin it, whatever it is." Alderman Swelhed, reading the report of the interviewer next morning: "Our distinguished townsman, Mr. M. T. Swelhed, was found at his I charming home, surrounded by abundant indication of ripe scholarship and sturdy common-sensc. In reply to our reporter's question, he said: I do not desire to force my opinions upon the public, but this I will say, that I have given to this question long and studious attention, inci- dentally examining into the curricula of institutions of learning both at home and abroad, and although I find in the existing course of study not a few matters for condemnation, still upon the whole I cannot say that I should advise any radical -change until I have further time to examine into the sub- ject.' By George, that feller's got my exact language, word for word! And he didn't take no notes neither. By George, what a memory that feller must have! TOXGUE TWISTERS.—Most people have at some period of their lives been requested by certain evilly-disposed persons to repeat rapidly the in- formfttion that "She sells sea shells," or to say that the --Sea ceaseth and it suflieeth us," "What a shame such a shapely sash should shabby stitches show." Or they may have been desired by a mali- ciously-inclined fellow-guest to require an im- aginary individual to Give Grimes Jim's gilt gig-whip," or to comment upon How- hard it is to say, 'How high is it?'" When a pretty teaser has obtained a temporary victory by setting you the afore-mentioned task, just, request her to repea t six times in one breath, '• What a pity poor Peter peeked pretty Polly's pigs." If she survives, ask her to inform the company ten times in ten seconds that six misses mixed hisses." When the surgeon has repaired her parts of speech, you may with propriety ask her" If he sipped, should she sip ? Should a ship's steward sell a shoddy suit?" "The bore brought boar brawn," Sam should soon sell Shem six shillings single shingles," He threw two true throws." In all probability this will be the coup- JC-RJRDRC, and as your tormentor is borne from the room in a swoon you are at liberty to hiss in part- ing these fatal words, "SbQuld sooty Sue seek cheek ?
