FEED BABY SLOWLY. ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT FAC? TORS IN CHILD REARING. Seasons Tvfay Food Sboald Not Bc Tumbled Rapidly Into tbe Little Stomach.-Advice "Which Applies to Grown Folks as Well as Babes. Ia the proper bringing up of -a child there is nothing absolutely more im? portant than this one thing-to teach it to eat slowly. Every groom knows and observes the rule in the care of a horse that rapid eating is fatal to digestion. There are all sorts of patent mangers to prevent tiie horse swallowing his oats too quickly. The man who has co patent manger knows enough, when neces? sary, to put a stone in the manger, scattering the oats around it, so that the horse may be compelled to eat slowly. If the horse's inclination is to gulp down water too fast the care? ful man will pjrt a 1 ig sponge in the water, compelling slow drinking. A child's appetite, when he is al? lowed to eat rapidly, is always in ex? cess of his actual needs unless the child is in bad health. The reason for this is extremely simple. The child craves food because his body requires to - manufacture new tissue. He is growing, and he must not only replace the used up tissues that his daily life destroys, but he must make new flesh, new muscles, new bone and new blood every day, adding weight and size. The sensation of hunger is not the craving of an empty stomach, satisfied as soon as the stomach is filled; it is a craving that is felt by the nerves all over the body. This craving cannot possibly be satisfied until the stomach has begun the work of transforming the food into blood, flesh, muscles, etc.; consequently the sensation which we call hunger persists long after the child or grown person has rapidly ab? sorbed as much food as it really needs. A million foolish parents urge their children to eat a great deal and always let them eat as much as they want to. Yet all of these know that a famished man taken off a wreck will eat himself to death if allowed to do so. The very .hungry child goes to the same excess, only in a lesser degree. The great safeguard against that excess in eat? ing, which kills 90 per cent of men be ^fof? their time and which accounts for 99 per cent (rf children's diseases, is slow eating. Nearly all children eat too rapidly. "JThey do so by nature. Slow eating is a matter of education. But too often the mother or the nurse teaches the child the habit of eating fast. When the baby is little, it is fed one spoonful at a time. Before it has time to half chew or even gulp down the first tea? spoonful of food another is held to its Hps. Of course it swallows what it ..lias in its mouth and seizes upon the next mouthful. The habit thus incul? cated by foolish adults often ruins the child permanently. Four factors count in the healthy as? similation of food, factors which par? ents and curses should remember. As- i suming the food to be properly prepar? ed, thoroughly cooked and wisely se? lected, there comes, first the work of i the teeth, which prepare the food for easy digestion; second, the action of the saliva, with which the food must be thoroughly mixed in order to mini? mize the necessary work of the gastric ; Juices in the stomach; third, the work ^5f the stomach itself; fourth, and most ? important a proper supply of blood and of heat [ Force your child to chew slowly and thoroughly every mouthful. If noth? ing -else will do, compel him at fre? quent intervals to lay down his knife and fork that the importance of pro? longed chewing may be impressed upon ! "him. Don't allow your child to gulp down water or any other liquid with nis solid f-ood. If you ai?ow him to drink while he eats, the salivary l--x?%nds will not act They will not Heed io act for he will be able to swal? low his food easily when it is made moist by water. . You can't do anything to help along the unconscious process which goes cn in the stomach, but you can do ev? erything to help that process by at? tending to the fourth, necessity, which demands blood and the heat of the blood in the stomach. Allow no child after eating to take violent exercise, to study or even to read an exciting book. The brain has first call upon the service of the heart and as soon as the brain is excited the blood leaves the stomach and goes to the bead. The muscles also when too violently ex- 1 erted draw the blood away from the stomach. It is absolutely impossible for a child or a grown person to digest properly or to get strength and vitality from ! what he eats unless for at least a half j hour after eating the stomach be al- j lowed to monopolize the blood supply. ? Children should be kept quiet in ? some way, especially very young chi'.- j dren, after they have eaten. In the j case of very young babies nature at- j tends to this mercifully by making them go to sleep as soon as they have j absorbed their milk. Older children j ought not to go to sleep directly after j eating for physiological reasons which j may be explained at some other time; ? but they ought to be quiet and calm. Tens of thousands of children in homes Where this newspaper is read are ruin? ed in health by studying right after meals. The public school system - which gives children too short a rest? ing period in the middle of the day is responsible partly for this, and the home studies at night are also respon? sible. Every word that is said here applier to grownup people, of whom not one in a hundred has ever been taught to apply to himself such common sense care as is bestowed on a second class "horse.-New York Journal.

In the museum at Pompeii are pre? served the most horrid and pathetic relies cf the last days of the ill fated citv. Early in 1SG3 the workmen who were helping; to unearth an immense palace struck into a cavity in the lava, the nature ol' which, of course, was a mystery. Without breaking further into it they poured plaster of paris down the crevices that were already opened, and as soon as the plaster had hardened the crust of lava was care? fully removed, and. lo, the form of a human being in his last struggles was revealed! The outlines and form of the person were perfectly preserved, showing plainly that he had been bur? ied ia boiling lava, which had hard? ened about bim. The intervening 1,S00 years and the heat of the lava besides had reduced the body to a handful of dust, but the lava had left a cast nat? ural as life. Since that time several bodies have been reproduced, one of them with the features so perfectly preserved as to show the expression of the face. In some of the plaster casts parts of the skeleton are imbedded. Two female casts which are clasped in each other*s arms have been called "The Mother and Daughter." Persons who have seen this group say that there is noth? ing in all Pompeii more touching thap the utter despair depicted upon the face of the "mother." Origin of the "Word "Coba." Cuba is the name by which the is? land was originally known to the- Lu cayan Indians, who were with Colum? bus when he discovered it One cf its villages or cities was called by them Cubanaean, and it is reported that from the similarity of sounds Colum? bus, still supposing himself to be on the coast of Asia, imagined that this must be a city of Kublai Khan, the Tartar sovereign celebrated by Marco Polo. The survival of the original name for Cuba is a remarkable in? stance of persistence, as the island has been baptized and rebaptized many times since its European discovery. Columbus first called it Juana in honor of Prince John, the son of Ferdinand and Isabella. After Ferdinand's death :it was called in his memory Fernan? dina. Subsequently this name was changed to Santiago, after St James, "he patron saint of Spain. Still later It was named Ave Maria, in honor of the Virgin Mary. But none of these names held, and the Indian name is still preserved.-Literary Era. i He Cornered Tilden. Samuel J. Tilden had a touch of hu? mor, at times q uerulous in its tone, and cit other times he could be funny with? out meaning to be. He was an expert judge of wines, and his cellar was choicely stocked. When dining out however, he had a little way of meas? uring by the taste of his guest and or? dering accordingly. Colonel John R. Fellows noted this trait and once when dining with Mr. Tilden saw that as usual, the Sage of Greystone had ordered a small bottle of an ordinary brand for his plate and a very choice vintage for himself. Mr. Tilden was called away from the table for a mo caent and the colonel deftly shifted the bottles. When Tilden lifted his pint to pour out the wine, bis eye quickly coied the difference, but he got out of the difficulty nicely. "Here, waiter." he said, "you have made a mistake in my wine. I want the same kind Colonel Fellows has."-Xew York World. Music In a Barber*? Shop. If we go from the gentleman's par? lor to 'the barber's shop of the six? teenth century, we find unmistakable , evidences of the popularity of music. People would seem to have had more time in those days than now and do ?ot appear to have minded waiting as j ( much as brisker moderns, and so the barber provided means to amuse those who were waiting their turn. For this purpose he had the virginals in one corner, the virginal being a stringed instrument the precursor of our piano, in which by pressing keys like our pi? ano keys the strings were struck not by a hammer, as in our piano, but by a quill or elastic piece of wood, of leath? er or of metal. A virginal of Eliza? beth's time is still preserved in the South Kensington museum in Eng? land.-Lippinco.t's. Government Clocks. Scattered throughout the various Washington departments are hundreds of clocks and chronometers, which cost the government annually thousands of dollars. The chronometers are the most expensive clocks in existence, and they are to be found on board every war? ship of the United States. These time? pieces cost ?400 each. The ones most j consulted are those in the marble room of the senate and in the speaker's lobby of the house. Hundreds of people daily correct their watches by then:. Guerrilla Warfare. The word guerrilla is Spanish and first came into common use in this | country during the time of the penin- ! sular war: but Spain throughout her long history has always been reeogniz- | ed as the country most ideally suited for guerrilla tactics. There is no re? gion in Europe in which it is more diffi? cult to wage successful war. "If the army of invasion is small, it is defeat? ed: if it is large, it starves." Xot Worth Mentioning.

Excellent Memory. "John," she said, looking at him se? verely, "did you know that yesterday was the anniversary of our weddiug?" "Certainly, my darling, certainly," he replied, pretending that he wasn't at all surprised. "Didn't they send that little thing out from the jeweler's that 1 ordered for you? I shall go around today and see about it. Confound'those people, anyway! They promised they'd send it yesterday without fail. . If there's anything that makes me mad, it's to have people lie to me about a thing of that kind. I'd have gone some? where else if they had said they couldn't have it ready in time. Well. I'll make such a kick when I get into town today that they won't forget next time. I'll bet Yes, 1 remembered it my dear. I thought of you all day and of that other happy day. What a glo? rious-why, my darling, what are you crying for?" "Oh. you l-l-liarl" she sobbed. "It isn't till next month, and you're de? ceiving mel Go away.' Don't you dare to t-t-touch mel" "Confound women anyhow:" he said ! as he went down the front steps. ' "They're never happy unless they're : making trouble for themselves!"-Chi? cago Herald. ; The Origin of Speech. The dog can emit four cr five differ- ' ent tones, each indicative of a special mental condition and each fully under- , stood by its companions. The barn ; door fowl is credited with from-nine to i twelve distinct vocal sounds, each ca- j pable cf a special interpretation by its fellows. Tile gestures of the lower an- , imals are either facial, like the grim? aces of the monkey, or changes of bod? ily attitude. like those of a dog. After ' citing the above mentioned facts the president of the anthropological sec? tion cf thc British association in a re? cent address went on to say that he , thought it might not unreasonably be inferred that the remote progenitors i of man relied upon equally lowly means of communication and that from such humbie beginnings speech has been slowly evolved. Even yet we find gestures, facial expressions and cer? tain vocal sounds often mere eloquent than words.-Youth's Companion. Prepared Fer All Emergencies. It is proverbial, of course, that the French shopman always hopes to make twice as much as he should out of the Englishman and twice n:> much again out of the American. An English tour? ist who knew the French shopman, though kv did n? t know his language, adopte d ;? simple expedient for tram- j actinic his business a bread. Ile c-.-i rr: 1 I a card into (-very shop lie entered on j one side of which was written, "Com- ; bien?" (How much?) and cn (he other, MJe vous donnerai la moiti?" (I will give you half). It is said that he never found further conversation necessary. Kl ni-1; Mirrors. Crystal gazing is still popular, but ! the very latest thing in use is a black I mirror, in which the sibyls say they can see many things. Those little ? black mirrors come from India, where j a spot of ink has always been a favor- ? ito vehicle for divination. The native boy who has "the second sight" is told ! to look fixedly at a spot of ink. which j is poured into his hand. The black j ??J/r^r is said to be every hit as good j as ??v ink, and it is certainly more Cleanly. It is made of a piece of black glass set in a wooden frame and is small enough to be held inside the hand.-London Chronicle. n season o Do You Run a Qui or 3iadrinery of Any Kind ?
