Nelson of Geor gia tells this story of the simplicity of a child's faith in God. The little daughter of an Atlanta man had been taught to kneel each right at her crib and repeat little prayers. When the family were leav ir,g the boar'ing house in the moun tains where they had spent the sum mer, the child was told to say good bye to the others in the house. This she did, and then insisted on going back to her room. Her mother fol lowed, to see heisdaughte go straight to the crib, knee -do folding her hands, say gravely: "Dood-bye, Dod." Then she was ready for her journey. Help in Fighting Disease. A Chicago life insurance man read with much interest an account of the death of Charles Kreck a. Allentown, Pa., in his ninetieth year. Sixty-one years ago he -applied for membership in an Odd Fellows' lodge, but was re jected on account of his bad health. Later he was accepted, and he sur vived all the other lodge members but one. "It is a fact," said the insurance mafi, "that life insurance companies often do, good to men by rejecting them. In many cases the experience results in a beneficial chr-nge of habits and the man takes better care of him' self. Besides, his obstinacy is aroused and he determines to live 'just to show these Insurance men.' Any physician will tell you that such a determina tion is a great help in fighting off dis ease."

Deafness5 Cannot Be Cured b local applications as ihey cannot reach the disesed nortion of the ear. There is only 0n0 wa to cura deafness, and that is by consti tutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an infamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is in taed you have a rumbling sound 'r imper fet hearing, and when it is entirely closed Dafness is the result, and unless the inflam mation can be taken out and this tube re stored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever. Nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,which is nothing but an infamed condition of the mucous surface.

HUMAN WAY. A .Charming Little Story For the DisconteteWd. 1WONDEJ." muttered youn, Mrs. Perry, jerking. a hatpir from the cushion, "if I'll evei in this life possess suitable and seasonable things to wear?" She thrust a hatpin rather viciously through the dainty summer creation that crowned her head. "One would suppos'a I didn't know,' she ~indignantly told her repected Im age, "that a trim, tailor-made dress and walking hat are tile correct dress fox autumn. One would suppose I didn't realize how shabby and out of taste is this hat, winter skirt and odd spring jacket. But what use to know these things, when one has no money?" She sighed despairingly and rum maged in a box for her oft-cleaned tan gloves. The sight of them lyint beside a small pile of newly washed neck ribbons provoked a. fresh bursi of scorn. "Oh. the littleness of it!" she cried, bitterly. "To spend one's God-given energies in cleaning and mending and turning and dyeing -."- because of a miserable, soul-pinching lack of monc'y." Catching up gloves and pocketbook she passed into the sitting-room of the little flat. "Be sure to take good care of Fred die while Iin gone. Dora," she ad jured her cousin, who bent over her school book. the two-year-old young ster playing at her feet. "Il try," was the rather weary an swer. "l-e's always getting Into mis chief. though, no matter how I watch him." The mother sighed impatiently. "I suppose," she said aggrievedly, "that I ought really to stay with him. But it does seem as if I might have some recreation once in a while, even If it's no more than going to do a little shop ping. But then, I'm always made to feel guilty !f I demand any release from the daily grind." She kissed the child hastily. Good bye, Freddie-mamma's coming back soon. Gracious! how dirty that dress is, and I just put it on an hour ago. I must make him some new things this week. Oh! the hundreds of things crying to be done. Shall I ever, ever have any leisure'?" "It isn't right," she protested, as she hurried along the street, "that any human being should be obliged to waste precious powers on miserly econ omies and pailtr'y strivings. There should he time for something else than getting meals and making beds and keeping clothes in order. There should be leisure! Time to think and study and develop the higher regions of one's being. Time to appreciate the beauties of the finer things of life. Oh. there's something wrong with the system of things:" The sight of gorgeous shop windows only accentuated her bitter mood. Mrs. Perry did not possess the philosophy that enahles one to enjoy beauty re gardless oi possession.. The display of exquisite gar'ments cnly filica her with wretchedness. "It is cruel'" she uersisted. "Cruel to be deprt'ed of the~se things. when one has the taste andl the arzi:tie abil ity to appreciate them so !meeuly." It was half an hour !:'.-x'. as she~ stood at a counte;' making 1:odect pur' chases that the souind of a wonman's voice nearby arrested her attention. There wa~s something exceedingly fa miliar in the well-modulated tones. Glancing up, she satw that her sur nis~e was correct. The perfectly ap pa-mled woinanf who stood looking at silks was no other than a friend of her girlhood. The recognition was mutual.

Oh, It's a problem! I don't pretend to know the solution of it. But I sometimes yearn for a simple, quiet life-for a life utterly free from all this foolish frippery and nonsense. I would like a little home that I could care for myself. Oh! what joy I would take In making it sweet and at tractive for my husband! And I would be willing to wear simple clothes and to have only a few of them-numerous clothes are such a burden-and I would be happy-oh, so happy!-for to me that would be living:" On her way homeward an hour later Mrs. Perry rgaz-d musingly at the shop windows.

"Here is a remarkable statement," said Mr. Bibbin, looking up from his newspaper. "What is it, dear?" his wife asked. "It says that there has not been a decade in the 'last five centuries In which war has not been waged some where in the world." "Isn't that dreadful? Why can't peo ple be reasonable and live in peace?" "Because people are mostly intoler ant fools," Mr. Dibin answered. "I declare, it makes a man ashamed of his kind." He crumpled the paper and dashed it to the floor. "There, there, Elias," said his wife, "don't get excited over it." "Who's getting excited? I s'pose I've got a right to express an opini~n. in my own house." "It's no more your house than mine, I'd have you know," said Mrs. Bibbin. "I guess I worked and scrimped as hard as you did to get it." "See here, madame!" "Don't you madam me, Flias Bibbin. I won't stan' it." "Oh. you wvon't, won't you?

There are numterous reliable state ments of grizz!y bears having attacked me', but n'r: adays the gr~izziy does not seek out h:s human victims as he aced to do. Neither does he lie in w\ait, and. pouncing upon a hiunter, ear him into bloody shreds in delight ed fiendishness, as the olitime stories used to tell. The change in the griz zly's disposition is likened by veteran hunters to the change in character of the white cousin of the grizzly, the poilu' bear of the. Arctics. When the stations for the Hudson's Bay Comn ~pany were established, the diaries of the men there often referred to tne fright of attacks by polar hear's. Many a navigator in the Arctic seas 11as been lawed anid chewed to death by polar bears.

In South Australia some observations showed that the ten:perature of the soil in a forest was twenty-one per cent. lower than in the open fild anud that their temperature in the forwst was ten per cent. lower. The effect of forests in thus equalizing the extreme summer heat is thus dem ous.ru ed. Until recently all post mortem exam Inations of the bodics of dead cows, pigs or any other "sacred or prohibit ed" animals, says the Pioneer Mail have been prohibited ni the Lahore Veterinary College.

Martel, the celebrated explorer of French caverns, has lately been ex plaining before the Academy of Sciences, the remarkable Arariations in., the flow of the great natural fountain of Vaucluse. This fountain, which has been famous for ages, and is con nected with the romance of Petrarch and Laura, excites the admiration of all travelers. Arthur Young visited It, during his travels In France on the eve of the great revolution, and gave a de lightful sketch of it in his book. The - fountain is so abundant with water that it gives rise to the Sorgue, a small river. Mr. Martel says, in fact, that.. the fountain is the debouchment of a river. which. in the upper part of Its course, flows entirely under ground, and he explains the curious irregular-. - ties in the quantity. and the tempera ture of the water by certain assump tions as to the shape and size of the subterranean cavidies that give it pas sage.

The value of the fund appropriated for the study of desert botany nmde by the Carnegie Institution can be bet ter realized by the statement that North America contains more than a million square miles of territory known 2 to the geologist, geographer and botan st as desert. The advance of syste ma'ic knowledge of the fundamental processes of desert plants has 1been comparatively slow, for the reasons that conditions afforded vegetation In these districts show such wide depart res from those of humid, temperate and trop'eal regions, the livind flora is - acessible to so few workers and the entailed investigations are necessarily so wide in s:-ope, so expensive and diineeliit In *escution.
