The probabilities all point in the di

of the summer, and greater precaution
will be necessary for the preservation of
health. Over exertion either in the per

of life must bo avoided. Over eating
and drinking, always hurtful, are especi
ally dangerona in terrid weather. Clean
liness of habit and abstinence from all
excess are the best safeguards for health
Even tod ftory politics or too tempest

The aborigines never showed any zeal¬
ous faith in Christianity. Unliko the
negroes in the southern states, they took
no delight in singing hymns among them¬
selves; unlike tho Polynesian Christians,
they never went out to convert the neigh¬
boring heathen. When they escaped did,
from the missions, as they frequently behind
they always left their new religion
them. In the course of three-quarters fled of
a century thousands of such fugitives
to the San Joaquin and Sacramento val¬
leys, and to the Siena Nevada, and
mingled with the wild tribes, without
leaving the least trace there of permanent
Christian influence.
Tho friars did not teach the abori¬
gines to be great mechanics. Among its
Spanish settlers, the territory did not
possess one blacksmith, carpenter, wheel¬
wright, shipwright, respectable or position turner competent his
to take a among
fellow craftsmen at tho time in London,
Paris or New York. No good plow,
good wagon, good boat or good rifle was
ever mado in a mission workshop. The
Indians did not have an opportunity trade, to
learn thoroughly any mechanical
or any of the finer branches of horti¬
culture. There wos no skillful nursery
man among them.—John S. Hittel in

No Children Need Apply.
A well known newspaper man, who
had l>een temporarily residing in Phila¬
delphia, changed his base of action to
this city. His family consisted of his
wife and live children, all of the flatter
having passed tho mewling age. Find¬
ing himself well settled in New York hp
looked about him for a nest for his mate
and young. IIo was told of a handsome,
well appointed flat in a location conve¬
niently near to tho prominent hotels and
which a bachelor friend of his had just
vacated. IIo inspected it and was de¬
lighted. The janitor was all smiles and
smirks. The price was reasonable. The
delighted journalist brought forth his
pocket book and, while mentioning some
well known persons as sponsors for his
good name, proffered a month's rent in
advance. The still beaming janitor, with¬
out extending a it and, inquired: “Pardon
me, sir, but are you marriedl’’
“Why, certainly,” was the somewhat
indignant response, for our friend saw
in the question nothing more than tlio
evidence of a suspicion as to the legality
of his conjugal relations.
Still beaming, the janitor said: “Any
children, sir?”
Proudly uttered was the response:
“Four boys and a girl.”
No longer beaming tho household
agent said, coldly: “I am very sorry, sir,
but I cannot let you the apartments.”
“Why not?”—this in indignant aston¬
ishment.
“Because, sir, the other tenants would
leave in a body if we admitted children
to this house. Their destructiveness we
might put up with, but their noise is
w-hat is most objected to. In New York
people get all the noise they want in the
streets, so they want quiet in the house. ”
It was in vain that protestations were
made ns to the angelic character of the
youthful quintette in question, and use¬
less was the emphasis laid on the fact
that all the youngsters had passed the
boisterou- age.
The fiat was inexorable. No children
need apply.
An exceptional case, you say. That’s
what our friend said. Ho went from
house to house inspecting flat after flat,
but everywhere tho insurmountable
