The weak, emaciated, thin, pale and Dunv axe made strong, plump, round and rosy. Noth ing so effective as a strength restorer and flesh maker is known to medical sci ence; this puts on healthy flesh not the fat of cod liver oil and its filthy compounds.

Happy Life of the Novelist at His Country Borne, Ditching hjun House, R. Rider Haggard, the novelist who wrote "She" in sis weeks and was re warded by worldwide fame and a comfort able fortune, has found more terrors con nected with the lion hunters of London than the lion hunting of the dark conti nent, and has permanently abandoned his town house in London for his country seat In Norfolk, where he can, undisturbed, de vote himself to agriculture, stock raising, good shooting and profitable novel writ ing. Mr. Haggard is now a country squire, a gentleman farmer and an enthusiastic sportsman, and his talk savors more of farming and live stock than it does of fic tion and literature. Ditchingham House, his country place, Is about 150 years old and is surrounded by as many acres as it has seen years. It Is a quaint, picturesque place and Just the tort of home such an imaginative and ro- A NEW PORTRAIT OF H. RIDER HAGGARD. mantio writer as Haggard thoroughly en joys. The Haggard household consists of the novelist, his charming wife, their two little daughters, half a dozen servants and several big dogs of the mastiff breed. The master of Ditchingham House does very Mttle literary work in summer, and his mornings are spent in looking after the affairs of his farm or in shooting. He is an excellent marksman and is quite a pic turesque figure as he strolls through his game preserves clad in a brown shooting jacket and knickerbockers and with his double barreled shotgun ready for use the instant a grouse breaks cover. He has a tall, athletic, sturdy figure, the flush of health Is on his sunburned face, and he hardly looks the 87 years Father Time has credited him with. Mr. Haggard docs most of his writing in the winter time, and when he shuts himself in his study in the afternoon or evening it is one of the ironclad rules of the household that he must not be inter rupted. His den is a spacious apartment, containing two tables, at which the novel ist writes, and the library shelves are filled with historical books. He has ' his plot well formulated before he begins writing, and when he takes up his pen works with great rapidity. Mr. Haggard is a reli gious man and every morning before break fast reads a chapter from the old family Bible to the assembled family and serv ants. When his novel is to be of a his torical character, he spends months in study and usually makes a personal visit to the country In which the scene of the proposed romance Is to bo laid. Earlier Beginning of Presbyopia, The opinion has recently been expressed by some experienced opthalmologists that presbyopia, or the long sigh tedness of old age. In which near objects cannot be dis tinctly seen unless held at a considerable distance from the eye, begins at the present day earlier than was formerly tbe case. No precise statistics on the subject exist as yet. One of the most reliable observers in this line states that his experience of over a quarter of a century leads him to believe that both men and women now seek aid from glasses at an earlier period of life than did their ancestors. New York Tribune. A Story ot Two Families. A singular occurrence was that of the marriage of two young English ladies who ran away to America with two of their father's bondservants. They afterward re turned and were forgiven. It is recorded that in after years a young lady who was descended from one of these bondservants refused James Buchanan because he was only a "briefless barrister," and a descend ant of the other sister scorned the proposal of a struggling young lawyer who after ward became chief justice ot Pennsylvania. -Edward Eggleston in Baltimore Sun.

Both the Bride and Bride (room May Be Over Thirty and rjnder Fifty With Ad vantage Here Koroat Baa Deduced Borne Interesting Figures. The mortality of young children is yearly decreasing. The decrease is ascribed to Various causes. Some say that it is due to progressive improvement in the human race. Others attribute it to an increase of proper precaution in the care of the young. Still others contend that the cause of fewer deaths among children is to be found in no longer permitting them to eat unsuitable food and to wear unsuitable clothing. I ew inter from the present rate of mor tality that the marriages of parents have been made at more proper ages. Yet in vestigation by scientific men has proved that if hereditary diseases be excepted there is nothing so dangerous to the life of child as the marriage ot its father and mother at certain ages. It is only recently that any inquiry into this subject has been undertaken. But the results which have thus far been obtained are such as to show that men and women must marry at particular stages ot their lives it their offspring is to be mentally and physically Bound. It is to Herr Korosi, the head of the sta tistical department at Buda-Pestb. and al ready well known for the importance and accuracy of the conclusions he has arrived at from statistical inquiries in other fields, that we are indebted for the discovery of this new factor in determining the welfare of the human race. The results which he ob tained from a casual examination some 10 years ago of the relations existing between the mortality of children and the various ages at which their parents were married were so striking that they induced him to make a more exhaustive investigation. Forthe past 10 years, therefore, Br. Korosi has been careful to ascertain, whenever the death ot a child was registered, the ages of its father and mother, as well as that ot the child and the cause of its death. He has noted in all 29,813 separate cases, which, in making his deductions, he divides into two distinct classes, the deaths caused by heredi tary diseases and the deaths caused by dis eases which were contracted after birth. The former class is manifestly of the great est importance .for his purpose. As the condition of the mother is evident ly more instrumental than that of the fa ther in its effect upon the child Herr Korosi has compiled his first table on the results gained from observations of the mother' age merely. The statistics in this instance are: Age of Mothers. Percentage of Deaths. Under JO years 88.81 SO to years. 14.41 80 to 35 years 12.86 Over 86 years, 13.45 Deaths resulting from tuberculosis were eliminated from these calculations. From this table it is evident that the most desirable age, as far as the health of her children is concerned, for a woman to marry is between the ages of SO and 35, the mortality of children resulting from mar riages at that age being but 13.35 per cent, It also appears that a woman should marry when she is more than 35 years old rather than when she is between 20 and 30 years of age. Mothers under SO years of age are, accord ing to statistics, more liable to bear sickly cnuaren man at any subsequent period in tneir lite. The mortality of children bv women in their teens is nearly double that of those whose mothers were married between 80 and 35 years. Concerning deaths due to tuberculosis and atrophy, the statistician finds that twice as many deaths result from consump tion ana three times as many deaths from atrophy when the mothers are under 20 as when they are over the age of 20. Herr Korosi also recognizes that the physical and mental condition of a father leaves, to the same extent, its impress on his children. He has accordingly prepared a taDie oi greater length showing the results of the "age combination" of both oarents. Men are slower in developing than women: hence the relative difference between their ages in the table: Percentage of Age of Age of Deaths From Fathers. Mothers. Uterine Causes. 80 to 40 30 to 85. 12.08 M to 80 30 to 35. 12.30 Over 60 over 35. 12.88 80 to 40 over 85. 18.81 80 to 40 20 to 30. 18.34 40 to 60 over 35. 13.39 tO to 30 20 to 30. ....15.36 40to60 , 80 to 85... 15.40 Over 50 30 to 85. 17.54 40 to 80 20 to 30. 18.51 Wto30 over 86. 18.89 Over 80 20 to 80. 21.21 to 30 under 20. 1.71 80 to 40 under 20. .27.88 It will be seen from the table that the best results are obtained from a marriage when the father is from 80 to 40 years of age and when the mother is from 80 to 85 years old that is to say, when both parties to the marriage are in the prime of life. If, how ever, the mother be of the prescribed age and the father slightly under 80 years, the result is nearly the same. The most important deduction which can be made from these statistics is that men between the ages of 80 and 40 cannot with safety to their offspring contract marriages with women under 20, the rate of mortality in this case being no less than 27.88 per cent. This deduction is of exceptional im portance because of the marked decrease in marriages of that nature at the present time. Marriages when the man is between 40 and 50 years old and the woman between 20 and 80 years old, which are also of frequent occurrence, are likewise shown to be detri mental to the issue. Lastly, it is proved that it is unwise for a man who has passed the age of 60 to marry a young woman, or for a woman who is more than 35 years old to marry a man under 30. In general it may be said that marriages when the contracting parties are both young, or when there is a difference of more than 15 years between the contracting parties, are likely to prove dangerous to the healthy propagation of the human race. These statistics Herr Korosi has of course calculated from local observations. Investigation proves, however, that they apply with equal force to other countries and latitudes of the globe. In northern limates they apply indeed with greater force. In regard to the average age of marriage in the different countries statistics show that In England it is for men 27.7, for wo men 25.5 years; in Scotland for men 28.6, for women 25.7: in Ireland for men 20.9, for wo men 25.2; in France for men 80.2, for women 24.9; In Italy for men 80.2, for women 25.4; in Prussia for men 29.2, for women 28, and in Russia for men 25.2, and for women 21.05. A comparison of these ages shows Herr Korosi's deductions to be reasonable. New York Evening Sun.

Training a Cat, Cats can be trained to almost anything tf taught when they arc young. We Lava a number of Persians, which sit with equa- mmu j upon tne top or our bird cages watch ing the canaries hopping merrily about from perch to perch, making no at tempt to touch them, nor ever dreaming of Inserting a velvet paw through the narrow wires to the discomfiture of t he fluttering Inmates. They are left alone with the birds by the hour together, yet an overturned cage or a slaughtered canary is an uuheanl of catas trophe in our household. Chickens, too. our cats fully realize ore forbidden to figure hi their menu. They ramble about at their own sweet will among numberless broods of the tiniest bantam chicks, yet one of the latter is never missing, and they quite seem to recognize the fact that a plump little mouse or an unwary bluebottle caught buzzing upon the window pane is their enly legitimate prey. Sometimes we hear f cats creating terrible havoc in the poul try yard, killing chickens by the dozen and making life a perfect martyrdom to the dis tracted mothers. The best way to cure pussy of this fatal habit is to take the dead chicken from her, pepper it well, and then fasten it round the delinquent's neck. Place her in a room and leave her thus forau hour or two to ruminate over her wrong doings. It is 10 to 1 if poor puss will ever err again. Once released from this somewhat severe, if necessary, punishment she will make off, with tears in her eyes (whether from emo tion or the pepper it is impossible to say), and for the future she will avoid the poul try department with strange persistency and regard with distrust the fluffy little denizens of the chicken coops. London Lady. Appalling Depths of Space. In his lecture to juveniles at the Royal institution in London, Sir Robert Ball said that a telegraphic message would go seven times around the earth in a second, and if a telegraphic message could be sent to the moon it would reach its destination in a lit tle more than asecond. It would take some thing like eight minutes to arrive at the sun, but how long did they think it would take to get to Alpha Centuuri, traveling thither at 180,000 miles a second? Seconds, minutes, hours, days, weekB, months, would not be long enough. It would not take less than three years, traveling all the time at that tremendous pace, before it would reach its destination. , If that was the cose with respect to the nearest of the stars, what must be said of those which were farther off t There were stars so remote that if the news of the vic tory of Wellington at Waterloo had been flashed to them in 1815 on that celestial tel egraph system it would not have reached them yet, even if the message had sped at the puce which he had indicated and had been traveling all the time. Nay, more, if the glad tidings of that first Christmas in Bethlehem 19 centuries ago had been disseminated through the uni verse, there were yet stars of which astron omers could tell them plunged into space in depths so appalling that even the years that have elapsed since that event would not have been long enough for the news to reach them, though it traveled at a speed of 180,000 miles in every second.- ' LIFE OB DEATB?

"I remember one dny we had a guest come in just before luncheon waa served. It whs a sort of off day. and w. had a spread made up of odds and ends. The visitor was one whom I knew to be somewhat dainty In her tastes, and as there was no time to send to market for any thing I just didn't know what to do. Un fortunately the bread wasn't fresh, which was a great misfortune, for it always seems to me that with good bread and butter ono can make out a sort of a meal; but here ws were, when it all at once occurred to me that we might get up a creditable dish out of crackers, of which, as good luck would have it, there was an abundance. "So I buttered a few dozen crackers a set them in the oven, there to stay until they were a light brown. A part of these were placed in a dish on the back of the stove, and with the remainder I madesomt cracker sandwiches out of some bits ot roast fowl which wns ready sliced in th. pantry.
