Several ot the group recognized him as the captain of one of the big tramp steamers which ply between Philadelphia and foreign ports, and a place in the cir cle was at once made for him, says the Philadelphia Inquirer. “We’ve been killing time telling stories,” someone explained. “Sup pose you turn in your contribution.” The captain thought a moment and then smiled. “I was thinking of something that happened on my last voyage,” he finally said. “We had on board as a cook a big colored fellow, whose prin cipal companion was a little yellow cur dog. One day, while the cook was preparing some beef for dinner he let the heavy cleaver with which he was doing the chopping slip from his grasp.’ “It fell to the floor with a thud, and the cook emitted a howl of an guish that was heard all over the ship. The cleaver had struck one of his bare feet and sliced the big toe oft as neatly as any surgeon could have done it. Here was a chance for the yellow dog, and he seized it. Making a dive for the severed toe, he swallow ed it in one gulp, and then made a bee-line for the deck. “This was more than the cook, crazed with pain, could stand, and he hurled the cleaver at the dog. His aim proved true and his curship pass ed out of existense then and there. At this juncture the ship’s doctor came up to find out what all the row was about. When he learned the truth he laughed. “ ‘l’ll fix that for you,’ he exclaim ed to the cook; ‘wait till I get my in strument case.’ “Within five minutes he had held a post mortem on the dog, and recov ered the lost toe. Washing it with antiseptics he skillfully stitched it back in place again and the cook hobbled back to his quarters minus his dog, but with as many toes as he had ever had. That’s about the on ly story I recall just now, gentlemen. It has the merit of being true, how ever, and if you don't believe it come down to the ship any time and I’ll show you the cleaver. The cook has quit the sea, and I don’t know his present address.” ANY PERSON Wishing to know the truth in regard to their health should not fail to send for a valuable and new 64 page book let which will be sent Free for a short time to those who mention this paper.

For a hand bath (a bath given to the body by use of the hands only, or by sponge or cloth) place a handful of salt in a basin, as ordinarily filled for washing. Allow the salt to dis solve or hasten the action by stirring it with the hand. The water should be as cold as you have vitality to withstand. Use no soap. Bathe the entire body. Do not neglect the face and neck in free use of salt water. This bath has an exhilarating influ ence, tones the entire system and gives to the skin a healthful condition that amply repays for the time and trouble involved. If used in the win ter it will be an excellent preventive of colds, besides being a substitute for face cosmetics. No chapping, no .roughness of the skin and no clogging of the pores will trouble the person who systematically and regularly takes a bath of this sort. Ordinary table salt or rock salt will do, but will not do so well. The sea salt contains medical properties not found in the others. Whether one exercise or not the body should receive a daily hand bath of cold or cool water, especially in summer, either upon rising or be fore retiring.

Want of love or the want of money is at the bottom of all our troubles. Every Month there are thousands of wo men who nearly suffer death from irregular menses. Some times the “ period " comes too often sometimes not often enough—sometimes the flow is too scant, and again: it is too profuse.

( How Pictures .Should Be Hungr) “To hang and properly group pic tures is not an easy matter,” writes Maria Parloa in the September La dies’ Home Journal. “To succeed, one must have a good eye for distance for straight lines, and for harmony in grouping, as well as a fund of patience —putting up and taking down each picture, or set of pictures, until the position, height and grouping are per fectly satisfactory. “There are two kinds of picture wire—one is gilt, the other is silvered. The gilt is more flexible, and remains untarnished and flexible longer than the silvered, it is also more expensive. Extremely heavy pictures should be hung with copper wire. “The picture hooks should be broad and well curved, that they may hold firmly to the Moulding and be a secure support for the wire. A yard stick or tape-measure is indispensable as careful measuring will lessen the labor and assure accuracy of position. “A. picture should be so hung that the bottom shall lie flat and the top be thrown forward slightly. The manner in which the screw eyes are put in produces this effect. For a small picture they should be fastened two or three inches from the top of the frame: the larger the picture the greater should be the distance of the screw-eyes from the top. “If the room be high it is easy to make it appear lower by fastening tne picture moulding two or more feet below the ceiling. 'J his can be done only when the wall finish is the same all the way up, or when the frieze is deep. When there is the space of several feet above the moulding small pictures and bas-reliefs in plaster are effective.

The first meusurts to check its spread were adopted by the city of Venice, which appointed in J 348 three guardinus of the pnhlic health. In 1403 Venice es tablished a lazaret, or contagious dis ease hospital, on a small island adjoin ing the city. This, says Surgeon Gen eral Walter Wyman, was the beginning of quarantine. The word itself means “forty” and implies 40 days, the peri od of detention imposed on vessels at this first Venetian quarantine.— Youth's Companion. CASTOR IA For Infants and Children. The Kind You Have Always Bought jTtilrtu Reasons why Christian Should Not Dan G e-1. I cannot dance with a clear conscience before God, and therefore I should abstain. 2. All the Christian churches have condemned dancing as carnal and immoral, inconsistent with the Chris tian profession. j. Even the sacred books of the Pagans declare it an immoral amuse ment. 4. Pagan moralists, like Cicero, call it “indecent and voluptuous.” 5. Dancing was one great means by which Nero corruptee! Rome. 6. It has a bad name for professing Christians, and it dishonors the cause. 7. The best and most devout Chris tians do not want to dance. 8. None but backsliders and un converted persons are found dancing 9. It is not a favorite amusement even with conscientious worldlings. to. It is one of the most favorite amusements with the vile everywhere. 11. The world has noconfidence in the piety of church members who dance. 12. It is a distuctive badge every where of worldliness and worldly con formity. 13. It destroys a professing Christ ian’s testimony, influence and useful ness everywhere. 14. The danejng of sexes together, as in modern times, was never prac ticed by the virfuous in Bible times. 15. Dancing grieves and oftends all faithful pastors and devout Christians. 16. It is a.companion vice with drinking and many other sins. 17. It dissipates the mind; corrupts the heart, and scars the conscience. 18. The decolette dress of the dance is an immoral invention ot harlots. 19. The “German” and other round dances,are favorites in brothels. 20. The liberties indulged in in dancing are nowhere else allowed in decent society, and under other cir cumstances, they furnish ground for divorce. 21. It brings virtue into close con nection with vice at late hours and under excitement, in which virtue is well nigh powerless. 22. Men do not choose to dance with themselves, nor even with their wives and sisters. 23. Beyond the thrill of music and poetry of motion, it seems to have a sex reference. 24. Indeed, it is so allied to licen tiousness that the vilest places in our cities are called “Dance houses.” 25. The police reports show that a very large proportion (75 per cent) of abandoned women are ruined in con nection with the dance. 26. I cannot dance in modern so ciety to the glory of God nor can anyone. 27. If Jesus Christ was here, I am sure he would not go with me to a dancing party, and I cannot ask or obtain his blessing upon it. 28. I wgnld not like to meet death at a dance and in ball dress. 29. I would not like to be found in a ball room when the Lord comes. 30. And finally! I have no desire to dance because my # soul is filled with the joy of God’s salvation, and my life with the privileges of his services. —Rev. J. E. Marvin. |3 Bent Cou#h Byrup. Good.
