The cauncl is a beast of great strength snd endurance. Nothing hurts it until the proverbial “last straw’’ is added to its burden. Th human digestive’ system is very muchlike a camel. It is really ae- touishing how much abuse it will stand. Sometimes, however, something worse ‘hao ‘usual will be eaten, and will go hrough the stomach into the bowels, snd there it will stick—thav’s constipa« tion, Nine-tenths of all sickness is due to constipation.

A recent visitor from thé east té Puget sound describes with en ‘husi- asin the wonderful shadow effects pro- ducedi-by,; and upon, the gigantic snowy-veone of Mount Rainier. It some- tines liappens that the’ sky, as seen ‘OWN, DECEMBER | surpassed—everything nodern ' | ask for. from the city of Tacoma just before sunrise, is covered with a dome of cloud 15,000 feet, or more, in height, while behind the peak, toward the east, the sky is clear. In such circumstances — the rising sun casts the shadow of the great mountain upon the cloud curtain | overhead in the form of a. vast blue | triangle, the point of which rests upon the apex of the peak. At other times the shadow of the earth can be seen creeping up the cone in a distinct curve, while the flush of sunset stains the snow above the line of shadow to a deep pink.—Youth’s Companion. Mrs. Drew’s Opinion of Edwin Booth. Edwin Booth had a very sweet char- acter and a charming manner at re- hearsals, which he detested. I think, after Hamlet, his Bertuccio in the “Fool’s Revenge” was his finest rep- resentation. He threw his whole soul into it, and it was indeed a perform- ance to be remembered.—Mrs. John Drew in Scribner's.
