He Worked Him.
It was an old game but it
worked here iu Saint Johns a little
while ago. A stranger came here,
oafed about a few days, and made
several acquaintances. Suddenly
ic received word calling him away.
The stranger told one of the boys
and tried to borrow some money.
Of course he couldn't do it. I hen
he offered to sell his watch. It
was a bright new one, "of solid
gold," worth fully one hundred
dollars but the owner just had to
have a few dollars. Finally the
lad who desired to go said to his
chum, "Let me have your watch
and five dollurs and I'll put up
mine for security for a few days till
I can write you and send you the
goods."
The Saint Johns boy did so.
Three days after the watch stopped.-
He took it to a 3-ball uncle at Port
land to have the thing diagnosed.
He said that watches like that
were a drug on the market now at
531 per dozen.
And so we Iearul

FOOD AND WEATHER.
Why People Cnt More In Winter
Than Ther In Summer.
It has been shown that tho consump
tion of food Increases Iu direct propor
tion to tho decrease In temperature.
Wc cat more In winter than In summer,
ind tho Inhabitants of the temperate
regions require moro food than thoao
it tho tropic tone.
This is duo to several causes. In tho
3rst place air Is denser In colder ell
ointcs nnd moro oxygen Is taken In
with each breath, so that n greater sup
ply of carbon derived from food- is
necessary in order that tho two gasot
may combine Iu their proper propor
tions for tho imiltitenatiet! of bodily
Sent. Again, tho Inhabitant of a cold
:llmato usually has to work harder
than tho moro fortunate southerner,
whoso wants decrease ns nature be
:onun more generous. The harder tho
laity labor the greater tho amount of
food required.
Climate not only affects the ipiautl
ty but alio the quality of tho food con
lumcd. Tho Ksklmo could not live up
jit tho dainties of nature which load
tho tables of tho poorest In tho tropics,
for the "conditions of his existence re
quire tho consumption of an enormous
imouut of fatty matter, so that blub
bar Is to him n chief necessary of life.

A wrltor In Indon Truth recalls that
llrownlng, when asked tho meaning of
n puasugo In "Bordello," replied, "Well,
I know tho poem had a meaning to 1110
when I wrote It, but what It was I
camiot now auy," Tho writer got1 011 to
quote parallel answers of Colorldgo nnd
of Que tho, which comforted him long
ago, When ho first transcribed tlieni,
Coleridge wrote tho greater part of
book S of Houthey'n "Joan of Arc" and
annotated tho long passage begin
ning, "Maid U'loved of heaven," thus:
"These are very flue lines, though I nay
It that should not, but bang 1110 if I
know, or ever did know, tho meaning
of them, though my own composition."
Lord Fronds Kgertou, when translat
ing "Faust," wrote to ask (loethe's or.
plnnntlon of n passu go which puttied
him and rvcclvud tho reply that thu
poet himself waji at a loss for its
meaning, "Burciy," runs Ids answer
to Iord Francis, "you at twenty-four
should know better than I at aeventy
four tho meaning or a passngo I wroto
