Hales for Those with Weak Kidneys.
1 Alw4ya keep the feet dry. 2. Keep
the skin in the best posaible condition by
bathing, rubbing, &h., in order that it may
relieve the kidneys of as much work as pos-
sible. (Remember that one-fiftit of all the
water leaving the body in twentv-four hours
patios out by tho akin.) 3. Wear flinnel
next the akin, night and day, winter and
summer. 4, Da not live in a damp house
or in a cold, damp climate. A hot, dry
climate is the besdfor the aubjects oE Bright's
disease. 5. D3 not indulge in alcoholic tee
verages. Their action proves destructive
to the thane structure•ot the liver and kid-
neys when they a taken. 6. Da not partake
too freely of meat, which is not all burnt
up in the body, as some suppeee, but is ex-
creted as urea by the kidneya. Meat mace a
day is probably suffielena 7. .1D3 not use
much coffee, tea, tobacco, pion, 8c. They
seem to exert a prejudical action upon weak
kidneys. 8. Avoid druge like opium, mers
eery, and cantharides, the use of which in
all forms of Bright's disease is fraught with
certain danger. 9. bleep in an airy room,
preferably facing the south ; and live out
of doors in the warm sunlight as much as
possible. Take plenty of sleep. 10. Avoid
overwork and worry, and be scrupulously
regular in all the habits of life.
Healthy Head -Gear for Children.
There is much room for improvement in
the head -gear of both girls and boys. Gus -
tam or fashion decrees that it is improper
for boys while infants to wear the warm
woollen hoods which are auch sensible and
comfortable coverings for baby girls. A
small round hat is substituted and, ears he-
ing left entirely unprotected, much cold and
discomfort result. All this might be obviat-
ed by the mere 'Actium of fashion to corn -
memorise. When the ohildren are some-
what older, the girl is moreto be pitied than
the boy, for her hood grows out of all pro.
portion, and she is but too often doorned to
struggle under an enormous superstructure
of plush and wire, which oatohes the wind
like a sail. The light woollen hood might
be used for both sexes, and in the WM of
girls in might, being largely conducive to
health and comfort, continue to be worn for
years linger than is customary at present.

that Stanley's marked charactertetic was a
cynicism that was almost unbtarable and
unaccountable.
He was 32 years old. The geeen had pre-
sented him with diamonds, and he bad been
snvormAuLy uosoltun
by stateemen and the great men of the Royal
Geore.phical Society. His name was known
all over the eivi:ind world, and distinction
and renown awaited him in New York when
he arrived here a few months later.
Stanley hadn't been in New York very
long before his club friends remarked that
he was partial in his visits to a eertain
mansion on Fifth avenue. He had been well
received in New York society, and although
he was not particularly endowed with this
worle's goods, he was a handsome young fel-
low, and the young ladies of soaiety found
him most congenial. At one 0 the homes
he visited there was a petite brunette who
interested young Stanley from the first
hour that he saw her. Her father's home
0 Lia
on Fifth avenue was one the moat m-
tive of meets for young Stanley after the in-
troduction. He would steal away from club
friends to make frequent calla on the little
queen of that charming home. The young
lady herself began to blush when the servant
announced her handsome young viaitor, and
she soon began to look for his calls. Stanley
was the sort of a young man to be interest-
ing to moat young ladies. He was a hand -
acme fellow, a fine converaationalieb, and
be was particularly attractive in the goalant
and reverential politeness which always
marked his conduce before the fair ones.
His visits to the Fifth avenue mansion be -
mime more frequent and his attentions to the
bleak -eyed little lady more marked,. and
pretty soon Stanley's friends learned that
the young couple were engaged. Stanley
frequently said in those days that he was
ready to settle down and have a winsome
wife and a modest home. He seemed to be
quite contented to rest then with the name
and fame thea had already come to him
Time ran on, and there were not anywhere
two happier souls than Henry M. Stanley
and his prospective,bride.
But with Livingstone dead there were
constant and urgent demands upon him to
resume the exploration of Africa. At last
he consented to make another journey. It
was to be a short one, he told his sweetheart,

Worth.
As a farmer was driving with his wife on
the outskirts of Kingston, N. 7. he came rm.
on a Turk leading it tame bear. The farmer,
wishing to have his wife see the bear dance,
said he would give 5 cents to the master 0
the bear if he would make it dance, After
the dirty Turk got the money he told the
farmer the terpsichorean performance would
not begin until another 5 cents was placed
in his hand. This made the farmer angry,
and he said
"If you don't make that ba'r dance, I'll
make you dance and the b'ar, too."
The owner of bruin made no move until
the farmer got off his wagon to carry hie
thi eat into execution, when he put his hand
to his pocket as if to draw a revolver. Then
the farmer "let out with his right" and sent
the bear -owner sprawling in the gutter. Aa
soon as the Turk could get up he took the
muzzle off the bear, and, in an unknown
tongue, told bruin to "ea for" the farmer.
The bear, thus encouraged, "went for"
the farmer, who soon made his fingers almost
meet around the bear's windpipe. When the
farmer saw fit to let go, the bear sneaked up
to ita master coughing and spitting blood,
and its master began to make tracks from
the apoh All this time the farmer's wife sat
still in the wagon, simply saying:
"James, I wish you wouldn't be so foolish."

Faithful Buffaloes.
Every country boy knows how devoted
the domestic cow i$ to her young, but. ac-
cording to Colonel DAge, the female buffa-
lo, incredible as it seerna shows ecarcely a
trace of westerns' instinct, and when fright-
enen will ran away /roan her calf without the
alighteat heolatticie.
Tao duty of protectdng the young devolves
almost eutirely upon the bulls, I have seen
ovidencee of this many times, hut a most
remarkable instance was related to Ma by an
army surgeon.
He was returning to clime after a day's
hunt, when his attention was attracted by
the curious action of it little knot of six or
eight buffeloo. Approaching auffidiently
near, he discovered that they were all bulls,
standing in a close circle with their heads
outward,. while in a concentric circle of some
twelve or fifteen pacee distant sat at least a
dozen large gray wolves, licking their chops
in impatient expertaecy. Taese wolves,
with the exception of ton himself, are tho
most dangerous of all the buffalo's enemies.
trbe doctor determined to watch the per-
formance. After a few moments the knot of
buffalo broke up, and, still keeping in a
compaet mos, started on a trot for the main
herd some half a mile off. To his great aston-
ishment, the doctor now saw that the central
area controlling figure of this mass was a
poor little calf, so newly born as scarcely to
be able to walk. ii -2-316
After going lefty or a hundred paces it lay
down, the bulls disposed themselvee in a
oirele as before, and the wolves who had
trotted along on each side of their retreat-
ing supper, sat down and licked their chops
again.
The doctor did nob see the end of the
affair, for the hour was late and his camp
distant:; but he had no doubt that the noble
fathers did their whole duty by their off-
spring, and carried it safely to the herd.
