The Janitor of a public school build ing stood pointing to n young woman Just quitting the building with a large cornucopia, made out of n newspaper. In one hand, "Do you know what that teacher Is carrying home?" he asked. "I haven't tho least Idea from Its shape." replied tho uinn who had stop ped for n chat. "You'd be surprised If you saw every teacher lu this school, nud In nearly every other school In tho city, lenvlng In the afternoon with a bundle of the same kind?" "I would," snld tho other. "I sup pose It has something to do with their work here." "Not at all," said the Janitor. "They're simply taking away the tlowers the school children brought them this morning. From nbout this time of the year ou to tho close of the session you will see this thing repented eneh day. Hut there's more lu this little fact than you'd at llrst tliluk. If you care to fol low It up you'll learn a good deal about the popularity of teachers with their pupils. It Is seldom that a teacher is not remembered nt nil by her scholars. It would ben pretty unpopular teacher that didn't get nt least n nosegay. The blg-lnrted, generous little tots eveu hand the 'gruff old Janitor' a pretty bou quet quite occasionally. "Uverythlug In the wny of cut flow ers nnd sometimes potted plants Is brought hero every morning. And If a teneher Is well liked she can't begin to carry home nil tho tlowers she re ceives. Some of tho classrooms look like florists' shops. There's hardly a womnn teacher who doesn't keep ono or two vases on her desk, and they nro nlmost nlwnys filled up. It cer tainly brightens up tho plain school rooms with color. Hoses, violets, daisies, carnations, peonies, sweet pens, sometimes wild (lowers gathered after a trip to tho Ileitis nnd woods In the northern part of the city they are nil favorites with the children, "It would do anyliody good," contin ued tho Janitor, according to tho New York Times, "to wntch tho beaming fnco of a child who Intends to surprise her teacher with a gift. It's a bit of sunshine for tho cloudiest day. The lovo of most children for the love of their tencher shows Itself plainly lu these floral gifts, which nro frequently In tho nnturo of pence offerings. When a child hns offended her teacher she generally takes tho llrst step toward a reconciliation by timidly presenting a Utile list fill of tlowers tho next day. "Thu men teachers? Oh, yes, their pupils bring them tlowers, too. Hache lor buttons? Yes, mid roses, also, "It's a pretty example of school chil dren's thoughtfulncss," ho concluded.

There Is a deep seated belief amount ing almost to a superstition that alco hol Is a very Important heart allmu Innt, especially when this orgnn Is weak. Wlnternltz, the grent authority on hydrotherapy In (lermnny, boa often told us of tho very great value of cold M a heart stimulant or loule, and Hint It la far superior to alcohol In this re spect. Dr. Kellogg gives the method of application as follows: "The application consists of a com press applied to the portion of the cheat wall over thu heart. Thla com prises the apacs bounded hj the second rib above, tho right border of the tcrnum, a line falling n half-Inch to tlm right of the nipple and the sixth rib below. The compress should be largo enough to cover this space nnd to extend at leaat two Inches outalde of It. Ordinarily the best effects are produced by employing water at a tern perature of about CO degrees. The comprcas should be wrung moderately dry and should be very lightly covered. It Is desirable that cooling by slow evaporation should be encouraged and be continued for some time." Dr. Kellogg continues: "In Ocr many and Krnnce It Is the custom to administer alcohol to the patient Just before putting hi in In a cold bath Borne practitioners, as Wlnternltz, ad minister but a very small amount, a single mouthful of wine, for Instance, while others give brandy In consider able quantities. A few American prac titioners employ brandy freely with the cold bath. The unwisdom of this practice will be apparent on due con sideration of the following facta: "Ono purpose In administering the cold bath la to secure a true stimulant or tonic effect In arousing Hie vital energies through excitation of the nerve centers. Alcohol waa onco sup posed to bo capable of effecting this, and was used for tills purpose In ty phoid fever and various other morbid conditions accompanied by depression of the vital forces. At the present time, however, It Is well known, and with practical unanimity admitted, that alcohol Is neither a tonic or a stim ulant, but a narcotic; that It depresses and does not excite; that It lessens and does not Increase the activity of the nerve centers, and that this Is true of small aa well as large doses, as has been shown by the researches of care ful Investigators."

SPEND BILLIONS ON WAR. United States Kxpend More than Any Other Civilised Nation. . The United States during the century just closed has1 been regarded as a peaceful nation and yet over one-third of the enormous cost of war paid by all the nations has fallen on her. The dis bursements by the United States treas ury on account of the Civil War from July 1, 1801, to June SO, 1870, amounted to ?J,187,243,3S5. Thomas B. Wilson, In the Review of the Republic, esti mates that the additional Civil War disbursements for debt, Interest and pensions from June 30, 1870, to July 1, 1000, amounted to 13,004,838,775, mak ing a total Federal expenditure of $10,- 002,082,100. The disbursements of tho Confederate government exceeded $3,- 000,000,000 for the mere maintenance of armies In the Held. Mr. Wilson esti mates that the governmental expendi tures on both sides hi the Civil War will, when tho books are closed, amount to $17,772,000,000, arid that the Individ ual losses during the war amounted to f30,000,000,000. Placing the cash ex penditures ot the United States In the Civil War at 117,722,000,000, In the Spanish war at $500,000,000 and la the war of 1812, the Mexican war and tbo Indian wars at $500,000,000. Mr. Wil son makes the total contribution of the United States treasury to the war fund for the century J 18,772.000.000. It Is estimated that Napoleonic wars from 1703 to 1815 cost 0,2SO.OOO,000; the war between Russia and Turkey lu 1S28, $100,000,000; the war between Spain and Portugal, from 1830 to 1840, $250,000,000; the war between Franco and Algeria, from 1830 to 1S47, $100, 000,000; civil war In Europe In 1848, $50,000,000; the Crimean war, $1,120, 000,000; the war in 1850 between France and Austria, $225,000,000; the war of 1800, between Prussia and Aus tria, $100,000,000; the war between Germany and France in 1870 and 1871, $1,580,060,000; the war of 1877. be tween Russia and Turkey, $050,000,000; the war between France and Mexico In 1875, $75,000,000; between Brazil and Paraguay, la 1804 to 1870, $250,000,000. These figures are from Mulball, and in clude only direct government expenses. It is estimated that the minor wars ot Great Britain in India, Egypt and Afri ca have cost $2,000,000,000. The Bool war has already cost England $500,000,. 000. France's minor -wars have cost $1,- 000,000,000, and Spain baa spent In va rious wars $0,000,000,000. On these statements presented by Wilson and Mulball, manifestly Incom plete and unfair, the United States Civ il War cost more by $7,00,000,000 than ten European wars, and the wars of the South American republics have cost more than all the Russian wars In Asia. Tho total expenditures of civilized na tions for war In the century are put at $40,008,000,000. Famous Actor as a Fisherman. "Naturally 'my dog Schneider' wasn't there. But Rip himself Joseph Jeffer sonwas there," writes James 8. Met calfe. In his account of "Goln' Flshln' with Joe Jefferson," tn Tbo Ladles' Home Journal, "The place Is Palm Beach, Florida. Mr. Jefferson talks of fishing as we leave the hotel and take our .boat The fish.' he says, 'Is not all there Is to fishing. It keeps you out In the fresh air aud gives you occupa tionJust enough occupation and in terest If you are a philosopher aud want to think, you can think and Hsu at the same time.' We stop rowing and Mr. Jefferson looks at the water with experienced eye and tells the captain where to drop the anchor. In a minute our hooks are baited and over the side. Both our rods are Immediately jerking In a fashion which Indicates that something be sides tho current Is pulling at our lines. Tbs rushes of the fish threaten to cntangU our lines, but Mr, Jefferson expertly keeps his fish pretty well to his own side- of the boat until finally we drag In at almost the same Instant two splendid sbecpsbeud. "The sport continues good, and there Is no doubt about Mr, Jefferson's keen delight lu It. Our success rouses In terest In the neighboring boats. As we make other catches In rapid succession they como closer to us. A young woiiuiu In the next boat had been Industrious ly making casts without taking anj fish. Mr. Jefferson had been busy pull ing In fish, but not too busy to notice her operations. 'Young lady,' be final ly says In a kindly tone, 'excuse me, but I think you would have better luck If you would move the sinkers a little bit further up your line and throw your book In over there,' Indicating with hi finger a spot n little nearer our boat Bho thanks hlni and does as ne sug gests. In an Instant her rod shows the Jerklngs which Indicate that a fish bag been hooked."
