Brealblna; mmd Its Relatloa to th Steeret of Gootl Health. The secret of health, as every Inteltt cent physician knows. Is free nnd full circulation of the blood, aud this circu lation is deiieudent absolutely on tbn.--jiiigti oxygenation. In .many cases where erroneous habits of living bare been so long condoned that congestion has become chronic lu one sliape-or an otherobesity, gout, rheumatism, con stipation or tuberculosis having ramped In the system and crippled It the patient Is not apt to be in a cotidl t'.rn tQ readily asHimlhite a sufficient qnnntlty of oxygen direct from the at mosphere. The breathing upparutus must first be properly developed, so that the patient shall be able to grail aally Increase the supply of nlr to tbe system, until ot hist horecovcrs the normal power of deep breathing.- With the building up of the lUDgs through proper brenthlng there Is a metabolism of all tbe tissues and or gans, so that, for most men, breathing exercises arc more Important than any mere muscular exereice. Not only tbe lungs, but all the Internal organs nre brought Into play by correct breathing. It' develops the heart, stomach, liver and kidneys directly and Indirectly and nourishes all these organs as -they should b nourished by more Mood and better blood In constant and regular circulation. Breathing, therefore. Is -a sovereign remedy for our national dis ease of nervous depiction. It might well replace tho countless tonics, stlm ulnuts and nnodynes now so commonly resorted to, where results nre .nothing Iphs tluyi tragic In thousands of cases --Maurice Manning, M. D., lu VI m. Bltihnutmeunua anil Piira. A recent traveler In Soinnlilanil gives the following curious incident show ing tlie Mobnmmodnn hatred f ir pigs: "We shot two wart hogs, one a partic ularly big boar. Alan wished to keep the tusks, but of course none of the Somalia would touch the unclean ani mal. At lust a bribe of 2 rupees In duced the Mldgiin woman to chop the tusks out with a hntchct liven then the would not touch them ami with the help of two sticks, which Blie used like a pair of tongs, put them on n camel. Then there was a long dispute about the hatehet No one would touch It It had been defiled. Of course this was pure affectation and playing to the gallery on the ayah's part At home with her native tribe she would have gorged all tho pig she could get But It flattered the Somalia, and we march ed off, the ayah holding the hatchet at arm's length as if It were going to bite her.'? Bow (o Make French Coffee. The peculiarly delicious flavor of cof fee as served by tho French hostess la said to be due to the fact that when roasting the bean she covers It very slightly when clone with melted bntter and sugar instead of egg, as Is oftan tone In this country. How tu Clean Meerschaum Pipes. One who has a beloved meerschaum pipe may be glad to lenrn Just how to cleanse It In n very simple way wllh. out injuring the beautiful coloring, which can only be produced by faithful attention to my Lady Nlrotine. Place the pipe In a shallow pun and cover It with cold, sweet milk. Let the milk come slowly to the boiling point over a coal fire and then let It boll gently for a few moments. This Is said to be the only method of cleansing a meerschaum pipe which will not at the Barno time injure tlie coloring. How to Cure Catarrh. Salt will cure catarrh if used per sistently. Make a solution as strong as can be easily birttte and snuff It up Into one nostril nt a time, retaining It there second or two.
