Pneumonia is first, last and all the time an acute local disease of the lungs, which, according to the gravity o f the case, become more or less consolidated or choked up. The more o f the lung tissue that is thus choked the less the lungs are able to breathe. The first consequence o f this helplessness on the part of the lungs is that the heart— that gallant organ— labors to get enough blood to keep things going, and this is why we see the distressing rapid and shallow breathing so character istic o f the disease. ’ With all the heart can do it can only pump blood; it cannot oxy genate it— that is the function of the lungs. Presently, therefore, the blood stream becomes more and more impure, owing to lack o f oxy- C , and in those cases ending in th one o f two things happens— either the heart gives out entirely, unable to stand the strain pat upon it, or else the system is overcome by toxin»—that is to say, by the impu rity induced by the lack of oxygena tion. ~ It has long been recognized that what the pneumohia patient needs is oxygen, and we are n o w . sure that this is best supplied by a direct current of fresh air from outside and that this fresh air should be the basis o f all treatment from the very beginning. Too often has life been lost by a failure to recognize this truth or by a belief that rushing in canned oxy- ? ;en at the last moment would e l ect a cure. There is less pneumo nia among country dwellers than among city people. There is less pneumonia among people who venti late well than among the stuffy. And there is less pneumonia in the summer than in the winter, because m the summer there is free circula tion of air through all our houses. The ideal treatment o f pneumonia is to carry the patient into the open air and keep him there with proper precautions against wind and weather. Bnt as this cannot always be done the patient can at least be placed in the largest, sunniest and best ventilated room in the house. I f possible s ream with windows $ i.o o up Th* Retort Baroastio. Dr. Scott, joint parent with Lid dell o f the well known Greek lexi con, was at one time master o f Bal- liol college, Oxford university, and master at all times o f quiet sarcasm. A noble lord who had rooms in the buildings which adjoined the master’s house and who, contrary to regulations, kept a dog in college went to complain o f the noise made by cate. A fter he had expatiated for some little time on this griev ance Dr. Scott said, with the gen tle, slow drawl which lent additional force to his smiles: “ Is that a cat, Lord Donough- more, that I hear barking on your staircase every night V Tim * Is Money.

A Fabl* That May Aot aa a Tonio In Such a Caaa. I f you have anybody working f o r you and they lie down on their job don’ t fire them at once— just call them jn and tell this story: Down in Virginia a farmer had an ox awd a mule that he hitched together to a plow. One night, after several days o f continuous plowing and after the ox and mule had been stabled and provendered for the night, the ox said to the mole, “ W e’ve been working pretty hard; let’s play off sick tomorrow and lie here in the stalls all day.” “ Y ou can if you want to,” re turned the mule, “ but I believe I ’ll go to work.” So the next morning when the fanner came out the ox played off sick; the fanner bedded him down with clean straw, gave him fresh hay, a bucket o f oats and bran mixed, left him fo r the day and went forth alone with the mule to plow. A ll that day the ox lay in his stall, chewed his cud and nodded, slowly blinked his eyes and gently swished his tail. That night when the mule came in the ox asked how they got along plowing alone all day. “ Well,” said the mule, “ it was hard, and we didn’t get much done, and” — “ Did the old man have anything to «a y about me ?” interrupted the ox. “ N o,” replied the mule. “ Well, then,” went on the ox, “I believe I’ll play off again tomorrow. It was certainly fine lying here all day and resting.” “ That’s up to you,” said the mule, “ but I ’ll go out and plow.” So the next day the ox played off again, was bedded down with clean straw, provendered with hay, bran and oats and lay all day nodding, blinking, chewing his cuS and gen tly swishing his tail. When the mule came in at night the ox asked again how they had got along without Kira. "A bou t the same aa yesterday,” replied the mule coldly. “ Did the old man have anything, to say to you about m e?” again in quired the ox. “ No,” replied the mule, “ not to mp, but he did have a long talk with the butcher on the way home.” —Gilrton’s Magazine. / i Two eminent French gentlemen, who were great friends, used to re- ! late an amusing story o f their impe cunious days. Neither fame nor fortune had come to them, but they were always hopeful. The years had weighed heavily enough upon Jules, however, for him to have become entirely bald. One day Alphonse met him with a beaming counte nance and cried gayly: “ What do you think, Jules ? I have been buy ing a strong box!” “ Then, AJ- phonse,” replied Jules firmly, “ I shall buy a hairbrush!” Turning Away Wrath. “ I ’ve been here a dozen times, sir, and I positively won’t call again!” said an angry tailor to a man he had been unsuccessfully dunning. “ Oh, come now, old man,” replied the debtor cheerfully, “ don’t be so superstitious about making the thir teenth call. Nothing will happen, I assure y o u !” — London Scraps. Tha Qodi of Puablo Indiana. The religions o f the Pueblo In dians o f New Mexico and Arizona embody a complex mythology, in which a very large number o f gods have part. In the sacred dances o f the Indians these various deities are impersonated by men wearing masks and costumes, each peculiar to the particular god impersonated and the details o f which are rigidly adhered to year after year and gen eration after generation. T o per petuate the religion it is needful, of course, that instruction in the char acter and attributes o f the divini ties be given to the children o f the tribe, and to enable the young mind to gras)) the intricacies o f the study small images o f the gods are msde o f wood, painted and dressed in every detail just as the masked dancers are dressed who represent the same gods in the religious cere monies.— Wide World Magazine. “ Now, it’s a carious fact” — The belle o f the ball sighed. All through the waltz her partner had been relating “ curious facts” to her about everything under the sun, from pigs to politics, till she was bored to death, and now he was on the subject o f heredity. “ It’s a curious fact,” he remark ed, “ but my brother, who was born on the same day o f the year I ihu, hut who’s three years oider, is the exact opposite o f me in eveiy re spect. Do you know my brother?” I “ No,” demurely murmured the belle, “ but I should like to.” • ’ *•- ¿:vV|n
