A fraij and delicate girl in 'tennis and basket ball or gymnasium work will do well to try massage until she gains strength enough for other ex- ercise. .As she feels her strength in- creasing, she should let exercise gradually take the place of massage is as a substitute for muscular act- ivity, when that is impossible, or unwise, it is not nearly so efficaci- ous for healthy persons as actual exercise. If massage seems to cost more than the patient can afford, remem- ber that some member of your fam- ily can often learn in a few lessons how to give very successful massage Remember, however, that when you use massage in order to keep up good blood supply to an injured part of the body, such as a sprain- ed ankle or a strained muscle, it is very important to find out just what movements should be made, or you may do harm instead of g+rod. For persons in good health. there is nothing Iike the cold morning bath, followed by vigorous rubbing with a rough towel, to keep the cir- culation in good order. But that is too harsh for frail people, and they will be wiser to temper the bath, and trust to the rough towel, to bring the blood to the surface of the body. Even if you must some times omit the bath, do not omit the "rubdown."—Youth's Compan- ion. Cure of Sleeplessness. In mild cases of .insomnia change of scene, a seavoyage; moderate exercise C1 SO in the. open air, tempos- ary withdrawal from the .ordinary activities of life are, each and all of them, minor measures not to be neglected. It must also be remem- bered that in those who sleep light- ly, trival discomforts may be enough to produce sleepless nights. Cold feet an unwise evening meal, an absorbing game, a, heated Slis- cussion, a postponed hour of retire, 1 hent, and a hundred other small departures fawn the .accustomed 1 routine may be responsible for a 1 bad night. It is quite remarkable how this is exemplified in the cam- / mon experien•ee of a sleepless night 1 on Sunday, when the usual activi- ties of the week are interrupted by comparative freedom from care, more than the usual amount of re- pose, and frequently also more than the allowance of food and drink. Massage, especially when practiced thoroughly and rapidly over the ab- domen, a hot bath, a mustard foot bath, a wet-pacIt 'applied to the trunk of the body, a hot drink for- tified by alcohol are all homely measures which, by provoking a temporary anaemia of the brain, are conducive to the acquisition of refreshing sleep, Many forms of electricity have also been requisi- tioned with varying degrees of sue - cess. --Dr. 'Guthrie Rankine.

Several recent cases are leading eeientists to answer the Cues- emedy, boli in the affirmative, however much such an 'answer would leave been scouted a little while ago: There ig now in the service of Dr. Daniel1Vloliere, surgeon in the Hotel Dieu Hospital, Lyons; a capable little; fellow of 12 years, who is apparently in perfect health." Some time ago, in sliding down the -balusters, he fell and fractured his skull upon a chandelier below. As a bowl' full of brain matter oozed from the wound, no hope was entertained for his recovery. He ray in a coma for ten days, in fact, but upon awakening began to improve and is at present apparently sound in mind and body. The famous surgeon, M. Destot, comes forward with an incident as striking. It is the case of a stone ma- son, who in mounting a large cornice was so seriously wounded that he lost the left frontal bone and the left fron- tal lobe of the brain. After twelve days 02 unconsciousness he began to recover, and, according 'to the,.sur, geon, is not only well, but in the pos- session of all his senses, When in Algiers some time ago, Dr, Bruch treated an Arab for an ugly wound about the left eye, which had been caused by the blow of a ham. mer. The patient remained in the hospital service fully two months and during that time did not show the slightest evidence of cerebral trouble, At the end of that period he became - unconscious and died in a few days, devel- opedThe posthastounding factortein examination he was totally destitute of brains. The anatomist and the psychologist alike are studying these cases with tremendous interest, but no explana- tion that harmonizes with our previ- ous knowledge seems to be forthcom- ing.

Selling goods is not always the most difficult task that the travelling sales- man faces; frequently he needs a quicker wit and a greater ingenuity to obtain his first interview with the prospective 'purchaser. That is true, at Ieast, of the salesman in the follow- ing story: The salesman sent in his card to the manager of a large store. The mana- ger's office was separated from the waiting -room by a glass partition, so that the salesman could plainly see the manager take the card that the office boy brought him, tear it in halves, and throw the pieces into the wastebasket. Accordingly, he was not surprised when a moment later the office -boy reported that the manager, was too busy to see him. However, the salesman knew that he had good merchandise to sell, of a kind that the manager really needed, and he was determined not -to be put off so easily. So he said to the boy: "Very well;„ in that case, I want my card back." The boy disappeared into the office; andpresently i theinformation that the card hath five d been torn up. The salesman sma n c alma coke Y ted• five cents, took another card from his i t case, and handed it to the boy. ' t` "Tell the manager," he said, "that I always sell two cards for a nickel." This time, as he watched througl, the glass partition, he saw the mana- ger's scowl gradually turn into a smile and he knew that an interview and probably a good sale were assured, - z• CITY COUNCIL DOINGS To put through the license reduction ill require- some tall hustling.

This couple examined an idea new to them and stepped up several rounds on the health ladder. The husband writes: "Several years ago we suffered from coffee drinking, were sleep- less; nervous, sallow, weak, and irritable. My wife and I both lov- ed coffee and thought it was a bracer." (Delusion --uncal tea is just as harmful as coffee, because they both contain the drug, caf- feine). • "Finally, after ,years of suffering, we read of Postum, and the harm- fulness of coffee, and .believing that to grow we should give some atten- tion to new ideas, we decided to test :Postum.

Bogue Luffmann in his "Quiet Days in Spain." It is thronged with hundreds of tilted carts and pack animals, loaded with all the materials that the popula- tion requires. So universal is the practice of buying in the market, square, that there are very few shops, and those are both small and old fashioned. At a stall in the market place a bright-eyed dapper . little woman was offering tiny cheeses of goat's milk.. A countryman examined one carefully, tucked it in his pocket, and put down a real. I thought. the cheese a bargain, and said to the little woman, "I'll have one," and gave her a peseta, which is four reals. She beamed; and gave back two reals. I remarked, "The price of the cheese is one real," "Ah," said she, with a winning smile, "but you area caballero." I enjoyed her audacity so much that I had to laugh and say, "You are a, little rogue"; and she, see- ing that she had beaten me, curtsied and laughed as she cried, "Ah, great senor mine, you are many times • a caballero!" I do not complain. Such inci- dents and eompliments are cheap at the price. "Come up to nay house to -morrow night," said Eenpecke, "I'm go- ing to celebrate nay golden wed- ding." "Golden wedding! Why, man, you've only been married three years!" "I know,it; but it seems like fifty." {CZrMA ON FACE, t> . s Came O., i. ff In Scales, Rolled Badly. Had to Tie Hands. Little Watery Pimples.
