Cold feet indtic0 delay in securing sleep, and it is then shallow when at- tained. It is most unwise to overfill the stomach before retiring; this dis- turbs sleep almost as much as hun- ger, but moderato eating before sleeping is not hurtful, and is often salutary. Body clotbiug at night should be loose, not dense, permitting the ready passage -of air, never of wool next to the skin. Bed clothing should not bo too close of texture, blankets being pre- ferable to dense "comffortalales," and not "tucked in" too closely. Air should be allowed to pass occasion- ally under the sides at least as one turns about more or less freely, Early rising is a salutary custom, especially when the day comes early, not otherwise. More sleep is required in winter than in summer, The best sleep is had during the hours of darkness. Tho sleeping• rooms should be cool, abundant air being always admitted. This should not be interpreted to mean that room may safely remain inteueely cold. In the modern treatment of tuber- culosis fresh air f5 recognized to be imperatively needed all day and all night.

CONSTIPATION. It would be difficult to mention OM of the so-called minor ills, or 'slight deviations from health, which is productive of greater harm than constipation. Physicians have come to recognize In recent years that one r of the most potent factors In the causation, not only of discomfort, but of confirmed invalidism, is what they call autointoxication, or solf- poisoning of the system by the waste materials of the body which ought to be cast out by way of the intestines. Various nervous diseases, periodi- cal headache, dyspepsia, skin dis- eases, ill temper, mental dulness, and oven insanity are some of the morbid conditions attributable at times to this absorption of poison- ous matter from the stagnant con- tents of the bowels. Constipation is a relative term, and it is not easy to define it in a manner applicable to all cases, for some persons have normally two or more movements every day, while others have but one every other clay, but the average man in a con- dition of health goes to the closet once a day. This variation depends in part upon the amount and char- acter of the food. Largo eaters and those who live principally upon vegetables and fruits containing much fibrous or woody material will normally have a greater bulk of waste matter than small eaters, or those whose diet consists chiefly of /neat or starchy foods. ' A. shIggish state of the bowels may depend upon, deficient notion of the live' or upon a muscular weak- ness of the intestinal walls—especi- ally of the lower bowel, or rectum, the office of which is the final dis- charge of the effete material, The inactivity of the liver 1nay be duo to various causes, but it, as well as the torpidity of the intestin- al 1111051105, is most commonly the result of unhygienic livin-p'—insufllci- ent exercise, living- in overheated and stulTy rooms, irregularity in meals, want of 5180, worry, and, above all, neglect to obey promptly the call of mater°. Often rho clothing is at fault. It may restrict' the normal movemlment of abdominal respiration which, if free, exerts a sort Of natural mas- sage on the intestines and facili- tates the onward movement of their contents, Another frequent cause of chronic censtipat.ion is the injutlicious use of laxative medicines, which overstimu- late the intestinal muscles and, alta' the iminediatto effect hall paseed away, leave then more exhausted and weaker than before, ESTIMATE Or PRAYER.

To -clay that boy, now a plan in middle life, is searching anxiously for the parents ho has never known, IIe is adver- tising liberally in the London papers under the initials of "0. le. M.," of- fering a reward for information re- garding his patents. The known facts of this story of a modern Japhat are as follows: In 18138 there lived about twenty miles from Manchestel, a well-to-do land- owner and his wife, Whose nano and exact place of residence are, however unknown. A son was born to them. When only a few months old the baby was taken out by his nurse and neither over returned, leer years the parents searched for the missing boy. No effort was spared to dis- cover his whereabouts. Finally the bereaved parents were compelled to resign themselves to the inevitable. The baby in the meantime was hand- ed over to a sculptor and his wife living in Manchester. When he was 7 years old the fam- ily moved to Liverpool, and five years later went to Toronto, Canada whel'o the boy was educated and started In life. Icor 84 years he liv- ed there, no suspicion ever crossing his mind that the man and woman he loved as hie parents were in no way related to him. Finally, with startling and dramatic suddenness he learned the truth, The sculptor, a widower, lay nn his deathbed. 130 loved his adopted son, and, though he know ho was dying, he /meld not bring himself to break his long sil- 0nee and inform his son of his trete parentage. As the end neared the old man lay motionless on the bed, his hand clasped in the baud of his adopted son. Suddenly he struggled to a sitting posture and gasped out, "You aro not my son. You are—" Then he fell back dead, taking the secret with him to the grave. Now "C. P. M." is -unavailingly seeking his parents, just as 47 years agothey spared no effort to And him. RICE CROP FAILS. Blow Suffered by Japan as a Re- sult of Incessant Rains, The rice crop of Japan has been almost totally ruined by incessant rains. Less than a quarter crop will be gathered, This is 'a very serious calamity for Japan, as a large pro- portion of 11er inhabitants gain their livelihood froln its cultivation. Even with a good crap Japan is obliged to import more and more rico each year to supply the over- growing demand. Last year, for ex- ample, the rice harvest was opo of unprecedented abuuditnce, being twen- ty -ono per cent. above the average. The crop realized 264,000,000 bushels. Nevertheless, the value of rice Im- ported was considerably higher than the previous record level, reached in 1008. Tho figures were $80,000,000, as compared with $25,000,000. Of this amount India's share was more than One-half. The cultivable area being limited, the 1norea80 in population and pros- perity largely accounts for the mark- ed increase in the amount of im- ported rice. The cultivatable area is about 7,000,000 acres. Tho last serious deficiency occurred in 1902, when the crop was but 188,184,24:2 bushels. In 1103 it 1'nse to 230,- 610,188 bushels. 4— KEEP KEEP CHILDREN WELL.

Up on the Iilgheet point of the 0015wold 11IIIs in 11 lo'laestcrshiro is a little colony of prnetical followers of Cu,anf.

It is true that they objectect at first to paying taxes to a government which they declared gave ;,heel 110tlmhmg 111 return, and ono 01. two men actually caterie<l their passive resistance to the extent of going to jail for their principles, but even the country people ronn1 about to -day are forced to adroit that they are good neighbors, poy their debts and bother no one—this in spite of the active opposition of /quire and Parson, who regard them as danger- ous enemies of church and state. The little colony, which is known as Whiteway, is situated about the center of a triangle the angles of which aro formed by the towns of Gloucester, Cirencester and Stroud. It is approached by mountainous roads and lies about seven miles from Stroud, which is the NEAREST RAILWAY STATION. The land owned by the colony stretches along the side of a hill and comprises about sixteen acres. The tract was left to a set of trus- tees headed by Aylmer Maude, the well-known English disciple of Tolstoi, by a farmer of the neigh- borhood who had become a convert to the theories of the Russian phil- osopher, It was expressly stipulated that there should be no private ownership of the tract, and at first it was a puzzle to lix upon a plan by which this provision in the will should bo carried out. At last the plan at pre- sent 111 operation was hit upon. The land, of course, so far as its legal aspect is concerned, is held ab- solutely by tho trustees, but anyone who is willing to work on it anti live in harmony with the colonists is welcome to settle on an acre and col - Ovate it. Il'e may do so free of all charge, but ha +nest not attempt to acquire any title to it, and as soon as he ceases to cultivate it with his own hands all his interest in it ceases. There are at present about a dozen families in the colony and there are a couple of acre plots vacant, but it is expected that they will soon be taken up. They were rendered vacant by tho efforts of the persons who had taken thelml up to secure absolute ownership in theme Apart from their peculiar views as to ownership pin land and the fmanctr- alite' of living by the labor of others, the colonists aro perfectly normal people. Living, as they do, an open- air life, they have adopted some reforms in drags, but these aro not the result of any fixed belief; rather they are the result of an effort to find rho clothing most suitable to the conditions UNDER WHICH TI[LY LIVE. The women as a rule Wear all out'ol' garment of the flowing Gi'cciult type, and the men knickerbockers and soft cotton or wool shirts, open at the nock. In the height of summer they sometimes dispense with the shirt while working in the fields, :Both leen and W0111011 go barefoot- ed, partly from preference and partly because shoes are an expensive luxury to persons living from the product of an acre of rather unproductive soil. For the same reason most of tho colorists are practically vegetar- ians, and practically all the cultiva- tion is acme by hand. The only animal in the colony is a cog, which gives milk for the children who, by the way, are as healthy and happy specimens of English child- hood as can be found in the Icing - don. Most of the children who aro old enough contribute to the family support by caring for fowls, 7'ho Queer :People is tho names by which the colonists are known to the inhabitants of the sue'romuling vil- lages, but there is nothing invidious in this title, :Ask any ome of the villagers about thorn and 11e will tell yo1 hog some of tho Queer Peo- ple calno into his cottage W11eh hie wife or child wa.s ill and gave the advantage of skilled care out of PURE NEIGHBORLINESS, end how the leen have often given them valuable advice about the var- iation of their crops and the best markets for them.

One of the women, a widow, with two children, is a trained nurse, who often gives her services to the vil- lagers round about; another was a school teacher and a third a music teacher. With tho exception of two or three, all the colonists are of English birth and breeding, While there are certain general principles laid down for the colonists to observe, there is great latitude in their interpretation. In many re- spects Whitoway is a real liberty hall, Por instance, the interpretation of living by the labor of others is very broad. Some carry it to the ext -ams point of refusing to eat anything that they have not grown them- selves, while others buy freely when they can afford it from the village shops.
