It is not so very long ago since a for- eign scientist discoursed on the benefits of yawning. This act, which is gener: ally regarded as purtaking of the nature of a tired condition, or symptom of such a condition, of the respiration and of the need for fresh air, is said to be Oi great service in clearing the ens‘a- chian tubes of the ears. These tubes lead from the back of the mouth to the inuer side of the ear drum, and a yawn- ing is looked upon in this light as a hygienic exercise which benefits the structures in question. Another scientist has no difficulty in showing that when we laugh we in- crease the play of tension in our lungs. One result of this increased tension is to arrest the blood flow in the lungs and to induce the taking of deep in- These latter are healthful things, for many parts of our lungs are not called imto active use in ordinary breathing. The apex, or top of the lung, | is notably a part which does not active- | ly participate in the movements of breathing, amd as this is the special seat of consumption attack we may reasonably hald that the law of disuse explains the greater liability of this portion of the organ to the onset of dis- ease. The free and active use of a part, strengthening and toning it, as it were, is an essential condition for health, hence laughter, by bringing inte play the whole of the lungs, or at least by favoring an increase of lung work, is to be reckoned an admirable exercise. Besides this physical effect of laugh- ter we have also to take into account its mental side. There isa certain . brain stimulus to be noted, a psychic result, in addition to the physical effect, and it is pretty certain the mental phase of a good, hearty laugh is, in its way, as healthfui as is its physical aspect. Singing is also praised as an excellent jung exercise, and public speaking is as effective a lung tonic as one may wish for. The only drawback to the work of the speaker is the foul condition of the atmosphere in which he has often to dc his work. —Exchange. _—-- Ax Ovp Ano Wet IRiED RemEDY.— Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing Syrup bas been us d for over fifty years by millions of mothers for their children while teething with perfect success.

This interesting discovery has been made by Dr. Mark L Knapp of New York. His paper on the subject, read before the New York County Medical association, is printed in The Medical Record. One of the conclusions of Dr. Knapp is that tuberculosis can neither be in- fectious nor communicable, This is the opinion held by Dr. Shrady, editor of The Medical Record, and is the opinion health. by medical men generally, Dr. Knapp ing that the fact thata man hasa flat he of necessity is doomed to have tuber- CONSUMPTIVES’ HEADS.

Dr. Knapp says his statements are substantiated by a few hundred cases, of which 477 were collected from four New York hospitals. In all these cases only four exceptions to the rule were found. The most important conclusion reached by Dr. Knapp is that the foun- Cation of tuberculosis is laid in early life, and therefore the way to save the adult is to guard the child > MFSSAGE TO WEN Proving that True rronesty and Tiue Phil- antrophy still Extsts If any man whois weak, nervous and debilitated, or who is suffering from any ef the var.oas troubles resulting from youthful folly, excesses or overwork, will take heart and write to me, I will send him covfidentially and free of charge the plan pursued by waich T wax completely restor- edto perfect health avd manhood, after years of suffering from Nervous Debility, loss of Vigor and @rgantic Weakness.

The conversation at the boarding house table had turned upon premoni- tions, and the dear old lady with the bloodstone ring was much interested. “It was most marvelous,’’ she said. **Last summer I spent my vacation in the Catskills, as ycu know, and at the hotel was a young man whom I couldn’t help noticing. It wasn’t so there was really anything somehow the expression of his face at- tracted my attention and yet repelled me too.

But it was so odd that I should think s0, wasn’t it? I never had seen him before, you know, and yet I had that mysteri- ous feeling of repulsion whenever he came near.’’ Everybody ajyreed that it was odd in- deed, and that the experience was most thrilling. The boarder across the table with the saturnine eyebrows, who sel- dom joined in the conversation, did so at this juncture. ‘*Not so mysterious perhaps,’’ he ob- served. ‘‘Those things that seem weird and uncanny to us generally have some explanation. I was seated in an ‘L’ car not long ago when a mau came in and sat down next to me. Now, I had never seen him before in my life, mind you, but his eyes had scarcely met mine be- fore 1 felt a weird physical aversion come over me. A perfect stranger to me, remember, and yet there was that peculiar and seemingly unaccountable repulsion.’’ The boarder with the sat- urnine eyebrows paused. *“Seemingly unaccountable?’’ echoed the dear old lady with the bloodstone ring, deeply interested. ‘*How do yor account for the mysterious aversion you eutertained, then?’ The man with the saturnine eyebrows handed his board tothe landlady and got up. ‘‘The man had been eating onions,’’ he said as he left the room rather quickly.—New York Journal. Pat's Score on the Parson. A good natured Anglican parson was riding one day ina jaunting car near the lakes of Killarney, whose famous echoes sometimes repeat a sound as many as eight times. Wishing to ‘‘take a rise. outof the driver,’’ the clergy- man said: ’ “‘Do you know, Pat, that there ere none but Protestant echoes here?’’ **No, sir, I niver h’ard it, and I don"t believe it aither,’’ was the -eply. **Well, -you shall hear it very soon,” said the Anglican. Arriving at a favar- able spot, he called out softly, raising his voice to a loud pitch on the last word, ‘‘BBo you believe in Pio Nono?’” And theecho replied: **No, mo! No, no! Wo, no!’’ Pat was delighted at the jole, and, rubbing his hands gleefally, said: - LEGAL CARD WARBORTON & MoKIRNGN Barristers, Attorney’s, Notarys Public.
