Just as the milder weather comes, the strength begins to wane and “That Tired Feeling” is the complaint of all. The reason for this condition found in the deficient quality of the blood. During the winter, owing to various causes, the blood becomes loaded with impurities and loses its richness sad vitality. Consequently, as soon as the bracing effect of cold air is lost, these is languor and lack of energy. The cure will be found in purifying and enriching the blood.

A FEEDING EXPERIMENT. INVESTIOATIN0 THE NUTRITIVE VALUE OF FOODS. The Government Making an Kflort to Discover a More Wholesome and Economical Dietary System. 7 HE last Congress appropriated 810,000 for the purpose of investigating the nutritive values of foods for human beings, tho special purpose in view, says tho Washington Star, being to suggest to the people of this country a more wholesome and economical dietary system. The Department of Agriculture has charge of the work, which is to cover as far as possible all classes—rich and poor, white and colored people, rural and city people. Agents are instructed that they must exercise great care and tact. Examinations will be made in a general way of the food supply of various localities. It will be ascer¬ tained what foods are purchased by people of different occupations and how much they pay for them. The question where these foods are most economical and best suited to the con¬ dition of the consumers will be a point of inquiry. Already work has been started at the Maine State' College, near Bangor ; University of Tenuessee, Knoxville; University of Missouri, at Columbia; Purdue University, at La¬ fayette, lnd. ; Middletown and Hart¬ ford, Conn. ; Hull House, head¬ quarters of a charitablo organization in Chicago; experiment station at New Brunswick, N. J., and in New York City. It will soon be taken up also in Charleston, S. 0. ; at the ex¬ periment station at Auburn, Ala., and at the Tuskegeo Institute, Tuske gee, Ala. Students at the educational institu¬ tions mentioned will afford exceptional opportunities for study. To begin with they will bo studied under ordinary conditions am} furnished with customary diet. Thus an oppor¬ tunity will be afforded for com¬ parisons, for example, between New England college boys, fed on pork and beans, with youths of tho same age and condition in tho South, con¬ suming bacon and hoe-cako. After¬ ward, selected groups of students will be subjected to what arc callod “feed¬ ing experiments.” Dietaries will bo mado up for them such as aro deemed most wholesome and economical, and they will bo restricted to a stated bill of faro for a period ot long enough to mako it possiblo to draw conclusions. An average gain in health and strength would demonstrate tho superiority of the dietary, while those of weight or physical derangement would go to prove the opposite. Work of tho same kind has just been begun with studonts at the Tuskegeo Institute, all of whom ore colored. As in tho case of the white boys, tho foods and liquids consumed will bo weighed. At Suffield, Conn., experiments havo been commenced with selected families of farmers. In some localities the inquiry will not he carried farther than to find out what foods are in tho market and what is consumed by typical households, with notes of expenditures for edibles by such households. In other places, as at, the experiment stations in New Brunswick, N. J., and Auburn, Ala., where there are laboratories, chemical analyses of samples will bo made. At tho same time all waste will be saved and weighed carefully, in order to de¬ termiue the proportion thrown away. Having obtained the consent of a fami , b to be investigated the Govern¬ ment agent will first make his inven¬ tory of tlie stock of food on hand in the house. He will weigh everything, not trusting to purchasing weights, Tea, coffee, salt, spices, beof extract and condiments will not bo taken into account. Beef tea made from beef ex tract is a stimulunt, but it is not nour ishing to any extent, Beer will be considered as food, and likewise spirits. Whatever is bought during tue term of the trial will be subject to like treatment, and at tho end another in¬ ventory will bo taken, the stock re¬ maining being subtracted from the total. Choice will not bo mado of families in whiclr there are invalids, aged persons, greatly oversized or uli¬ dersized individuals, or excessive users of stimulants. In New York City tho work is being conducted through the Society for the Improvement of the Condition of the Poor. Families aro selected by the advice of tho society, choice being made of those which aro most respec table and reliable. Samples are sent to Professor Atwater at Middletown, Conn., for analysis. Some of the results already obtained are quite striking. One family inves tigated was so poor that its members had not decent clothes. The mother, for lack of a respectable dress, was a prisoner in her own house and unable to appear on the street. Yet that household, which comprised six (ter sons, spent 814 a week for raw food, Another case was that of a students’ boarding house, where the quantity of food material wasted was equal to the amount eaten. It is expected that the evidence obtained respecting the waste of food by rich people will be surprising. Eventually the Department of Agri culture will issue a report that will be widely distributed pointing out con spxcuous errors in the diet of the peo¬ ple, and making recommendations. The community at large will go on do ing just as it has done hitherto, but a few intelligent persons will become interested in the subject and the ideas will gradually spread. This has been the experience in similar researches directed to the economical feeding of animals. Adopting the suggestions with reluctance, many farmers and stock raisers are now using with con sideiable saving the rations recom mended oa a scientific basis by the Qovprnmpnt. It tali os a good ■while tq saturate tlie popular mind with a new idea. SELECT SIFTINGS.

They aro usually massive structures with commodious and handsome interiors finished for tho comfort and conveniouco of mem¬ bers. But who has over heard of a newsboys’ exchange? There is ono, and while there is no hall to shout in, it is convenient and no little broker is ever silenced for shouting too loud. The newsboys’ exchaugo is at Park row and Frankfort street, under the lee of tho big newspaper structure on the corner. When tho tiny news¬ paper merchants gnttier for their papers in tho afternoon there is more bustle and activity about this exchange than about any other in tho world. Soon the rumble of presses is hoard, and the newsboys, pennies iu hand, throng the various delivery rooms. When the papers aro out they rush pell-mell to the street and shouts of barter and exchange soon fill tho air. They act just as their elders do iu Wall street, but when some unfortu¬ nate little broker sells too “short” and is caught, he is not suspended.

We were engaged tho other dny in piling wood in tho cellar and our thoughts ran in tho direction of tho amount of labor expended in cutting, preparing, hauling, and getting the wood to the stove or fireplace. First tho trees are felled in the forest, then tho trunk und limbs are cut into four foot lengths and split and piled; then hauled out to tho roadside or slid down the mountain; then hauled off to market; then delivered at the houses of customers ; then thrown into the cellar or woodshed; then sawed; split; then piled; then carried into the house and placed in a wood box; then burned. Eleven times at least the wood is handled and rehau died, about half of which labor falls upon tho seller and the other half upon the consumer, It is about the same with coal. The original article is of less value than the labor re¬ quired to get it into practical use by the consumer. And so it is largely with almost everything that goes into gen eral consumption. Labor is tho great element of cost in human existence, Northampton (Mass.) Gazette, Bisniarck , s Frank ( )„„ fesg ion.

An incident related by the author of “The Pearl of India,” iu his descrip¬ tion of the flora of Ceylon, is almost uncanny, although we are assured that it is true. It is about the mimosa, or sensitive plant, and makes oue almost wonder whether the plant has intelli getioe. The doctor, one of the characters of the book, while sittiug with the family ou the broad piazza, which formed the front of the bungalow of a coffee plantation, recognized a thrifty sensi¬ tive plant, utul it was made tho subject of remark. He called his young daughter of 11 years from the house. ■’Lena,” said he, “go and kiss the mimosa.” The child did so, laughing gleefully, and came away. The plant gave no token of shrinking from contact with tho pretty child. “Now,” said the host, “will you touch the plant?” approached Bising to do so, we it with one hand extended, and before it had come fairly in contact tho nearest spray and leaves wilted visibly. “The plant knows tho child,” said the doctor; “but you are a stranger.” An Electric Swindle. A French fakir has lately been doing a “l-iiul office” business in selling rat powder that, while perfectly harmless, was sudden death to the rats. In order to convince the skeptical tho man first, of ail powdered a slice of bread with the stuff and ate apart of it. Then he put tho balance under a glass chko, where a rat was in captivity. The rat went to eat the bread and instantly fell ilead. At half a franc a box the powder went off like hot-cakes and the lucky proprietor was in a fair way to make his fortune. But the French police, very active in detecting and punishing fraud, “got onto the game” and found the rat powder was nothing but ordinary sugar. They also discov¬ ered that the glass sample case was connected with a powerful electric bat¬ tery, and the moment the rat touched the bread the current was turned ou and liis death was instantaneous.
