In making inquiries into the cause of the high rate of child mortality or deaths of young children, there meet be several fedora taken into account. Ono of these iS carelessness on the part of tho parent, or guardian.' Many deaths of children occur from such a simple reason es the mother careless- ly leaving a pail of water en the floors y while she answers the telephone. The child may fall in and be suffocated g before the mother's return. Others give children easy access to tubs of hot water on wash day and death from scalding results. Mortality of children who take poisons by mistake, or medicipe at the wrong time, is also traceable to neglectful parents. It is only a short While ago that a child in Toronto died through eating five or six tablets of A,I3,SetC., the common laxative, which has a small amount of strychnine in every tablet, but when several tablets are swallowed at once, become a dangerous poison. n Children are ever on the alert for Is some new toy, some strange object to get hold of. Everyone knows how n- young children tire of their toys and t playthings and wher not watched will grab anything that is novel or new to s. them. in this connection the "loose gun around the place," always follow- ed up by the "didn't know it wee An Irish fireman, rescuing a woman at.a blaze, lost his, hold near the bot- tom of a ladder and landed heavily with the woman on top -of him, A doc- tor, hastily eunimonetl, pronounced Pat round, though badly bruisited, "You are a brave man," said the doe - tor.

It requires a little skill but the ama- teur will be able to do it well aft- er half an hour's practice. A halt dollar Is heli! between the finger tips and thumb of the left hand. The thumb of the right hand is placed under the coin and the' fingers closed over it, and the coin apparently earrted away in the right hand. When the right hand Is opened, tbe coin has vanisbed. If you will try tbo trick, you will observe that when the fingers close over the coin, the cont can be dropped into the palm of the left -hand. • Tho right hand goes through the motion of 'taking the coin, every effort being mnde to duplicate the appearance of actu- ally taking the coin. The left hand, in which the coin is "palmed" drops naturally to the side, the trickster having prac- ticed holding it just ae if it con- tained nothing. The amateur will find some dlftoulty In palming the coin. In this perticnlar trick It is better to bold the coin between the roots of the fingers and the first joint. The hand will be slightly curved and a natural position of the hand will be obtained very easily, Mucb of the success of the trick depends upon the manner In which it le acted. Until the mo- ment when the coin Is supposed to vanish, the trickster should act just as if the coin were really in the right hand, (Clip tete out awl paste it, with other 01 the series, in a scrapbook,) His Hearing Restored.

It has only one set of wings and struts, like the ordinary craft, but it can be started with either end forward. The new machine can take -off and be brought to rest 1n a very short dis- tance, and, in toot, requires only a very small landing ground.
