Newspapers in the Campaign.
The Campaign Committees will say, on
this score of the doroinatice of ideas over
mere machinery in the elections, that they
contributed hugely in the =ling of the re-
sult by their great output of campaign
literature. There is' of course, much truth
in this claim. Butnowandeys it is the
newspaper rather than speeches in pamphlet
form end "campaign documents" as such,
that reach and influence the voters. In so
ter ea the conioutteee utilized the news-
papers—which they dicl to an unprecedented
extent—they found their way to thepeople.
But most newspapers do not take their tone
from politicians and Campaign Committees.
In England the politician makes public
opinion, and the party editor is his humble
end obedient servivat. In this country the
situation is exactly the reverse. The editor
leads and the politician follows, The field

" While they dwarf their trees and shrub-

Girl Children in China.
As soon as a child is born, the firat ques-
tion which preeenta itself is is xi:deletion
into the human banally. The postria notestca
reigns supreme ; it is for the bather to say.
whether the little life -bud shall grow np to
become a citizen or a oitizeness of the
Middle Kingdom. In accordance with the
family haw, which is supreme in China both
for the Emperor and for his meanest sub-
jeot, until we child has imen " limed "
by the father it has theoretically no
existence. It follows, therefore, that M-
fautioide, or the failure to provide for off-
sprieg, receives the tacit approval of the
leen As male children are a means of
oupport in old age, they are useful, and
rerely if ever destroyed. Daughters, how-
ever, are a responsibility and an expense,
and are frequently exposed. Obviously,
they are not over -welcome in the Chinese
home. Mothers of the poorer clam exhibit
considerable anxiety as to the matter,
and frequently commit the neighbor-
ing joss -house, whioh of course, has a paint-
cee. for all woes. The Tottuist priest
throws up the "stick" in order to
ascertain whether the tree which represente
the woman in the underworld bears white
or red flowers. If white, then something
must be done "to change the earth," for, as
surely as 11148 110 rim, to her no male child-
ren shell be born. But what is to be done?
The remedy is certainly a curious one. It
is an illustration of the farailiar homeopa-
thic principle that like cures like. In such
a ease the girl child of another family must
be adopted, in order to ward off the long
line of females which threatens the welfare
of the house. This process is known as
" grafting." Thus it tures out that a girl
not wanted in her own home is at least per-
mitted to live in another. But even then
there is a surplus, and the mandarins are at
their wits' end to stem the fearful tide
of infenticide. A number of benevolent
Chinese merchants have devised a
plan whibh is certainly charming, con-
sidered both from the point of ingenuity and
charitable intent. The little girls are
brought up in asylums'which are practically
female universities. Although deserted by
their families, the authorities take . great
pains to obtain their pedigrees, whieli are
hung up over their cots, and are, of course,
invaluable for future use. As they grow
older, these children are carefully trained
and elaborately educated. Arriving at a
marriageable age, they have an enormous
advantage over the average Chinese women,
who never receives any education whatever
unless belonging to the wealthy or official
oleos. Indeedeparadoxical as it may seem,
very few Chinese can even read or write,
and therefore the little foundling carries to
her husband the one great boon, which is
the ideal, however,remote, of every Chinese
beart—an education. —Henry Burden Mc-
Dowell, in Harper's.

The greatest bugbear in children's livee jo
the fear of the dark. Little folks au breve

cowards when rooms grow shadowy and
strange forms loom up in dudey corners.
As the years go on this fear keeps pace with
their growth, and even when maturity is
reached they still dread unlighted awt.
znents with en overpowering fear, the secret
of which they cennot even telt themselves
This terror, that is actually a species of real
misery, ca.n be traced either directly or in-
directly to the weird titles told by nurses
to their small charges or the threats of
dangers that lurk in dark rooms if a child
is naughty or disobedient. The "big
dark" becomes an ogre ready to ewe them
up and twilight seems a stealthy,
foul fiend skulking in their wake with
an sorts of mysterious devices with
which to frighten and to punith them.
Many grown persons cannot sleep in a
room unless a duo light is burning. Tbey
da not acknowledge that lb is a fear of the
dark that makes the faint glimmer a neces-
eery adjunct of peaceful repose, yet such ie
the case, and if timer were to tell the cures,
sloe fee suck a fear it could be sifted down
te the root of the matter and the bugaboo
stories of childhood held responsible.

this morbid taste, parents should look to

they are fascinatingly horrible at the time,

Somehow we are never Etatisfied in this

as the case may be. There is always a
lei:ming for the unattainable, a desire to be
that perfect self that we feel living and
breathing beneath our decidedly faulty
options, and yet, instead of trying to remedy
the matter or else remain content with what
we cannot change, we fume and stew and
fret oureelves into a morbid state of unrest
that brings out the lives of care on the
smooth brow, ripens the disposition end
wins for us the sobriquet of old discon-

continually about the weather 2 If it is too
cold to -day it may be just right to -morrow,
and all you need to do is to bundle up a
little more warmly and you will not notice

you are too thin, according to
your own idea, don't fret yourself
even thinner by worrying over each bone

to fatten, acquire a contented mind,
and if such a combination fails to put
fiesh on your frame just look the matter
calmly in the face and console yourself
with the reflection that it is a "lean

How to Boast Heat. '
The glory of a piece Of roseted meat lies
in the preservation of its juices. This may
be beet done by placing the meet' in a very
hot oven, et firstaintil it is lightly browned,
This " sets " the juices and causes a coat-
ing to form on the outside to keep all juice
from escaping. After the firat fifteen
minutes the oven may be allowed to cool

beeome thoroughly cooked without being
burned on the outside, , '
In boilieg meat the piece should be
plunged into a pot of brilakly boiling water.
It should then boil more ' elowly until
cooked through. In this way the natural

in a regent lecture before the Chet

important connectien with the throat and

phonation. The epiglottis, by aleering its
form, causes the food to pa,es down the
pharynx and keeps ie from the larynx. In
speaking of proper breathing, the author
pointed out that iliaphreemetie breathing

The decay of teeth is largely due te germs.
Tina shows the importance" of keeping the
teeth in order. Obstruction in the nose is
tbe cause of many throat disorders. Care
must be exercised in the use of both
aloohol and tobacco ; many people can use
these luxuries with impunity in moderation,
others cannot. People bable to throat
disorders should be very chary of eating
piquant or hot dishes. Irritating remedies,

should he evaded. Hot tea, too, is bad. --

Dr. Fridtjof Newell, the Arctic explorer,
is a deeided persooality. His age is 31, he
is tall and powerful, and one glance into,his
widedapen gray eyes convinces one of the
frankness of his diaposition. In reply to
one or two personal questions, Dr. "Nansen
said recently to a Pat/ Mall Budget inter-
viewer: "During my boyhood I,- eagerly
read, all books of travel, but it wee in the
year '82; when I ,atiCQ1111:881Ekiecl; a fur trader
on a trip to the Arctia, that I resolved to
devote myself to polar exploration. Two
schemes occupied roy mind—the crossing of
Greenland and e. voyage across the North
Pole. Three years ago I returned to Nor-
way after having succeeded in crossing
Greenlend. Next May we start to explore
the currents and to take soundings in the
polar regions. Our ship has been built After

terioue charm of the Arctic voyaging?
What picture is most vivid in your mind,
doctor, when you think of those 'lonely
northern regions,/ "
"1 thinkofthe Arotic summer suit," re-
plied the explorer, gazing through the
wiedow at the pouring ram. "1 think of
the sunshine,. reflected from the mountains
of snowelart lee, shining from the lake of
clear; rippling water, where hundreds of
seals playfully splash the water into
glistening sprays of rainbow hues. What is
the charm, of the Arctic? Health, glorious
health I Your muscles twitch with a de-
sire for action. You eat like a horse, and
'sleep twelve to fourteen hours without a
dreani. Before you is the vast unknown ;
all around you is silence and moliteale.
Nature's mighty aepect is the charm and
fascination of the Arctic regions."
