HODSON It hta been contended that the easiest and pleasantest way to keep in fit condition is to practice jug- ling, the art of balancing and catching objects. When exercising at home, un watched by a teacher, one is likely to perform his exercises in an in correct or slovenly fashion, thus do ing himself more barm than good, but the simplest feat o f juggling can be done in only one way, the right way. Again, where physical exercise develops only a certain part or parts o f the body five minutes’ juggling calls into play every important mus cle. Finally, few physical exercises train the eye or the hand. Juggling does both. The mistake the novice is like ly to make is that he tries to do off hand what it has taken the experi- The medical hooks describe sever al degrees o f burns, according to the amount o f damage the fire has dons to the skin or the parts beneath. The first degree consists merely in redness and stinging of tha skin, such as is caused by u e flame of a match touching the finger for an in stant or by a w op of not wax from a candle falling on the hand. Ordi- narily this is a trivial accident, and the pain o f it, if annoying, may be subdued by applying a cloth wet with a solution o f cooking soda, bnt if a large surface is burned, a* when a cambric night dress catches fire and blazes up for a moment, hut is quickly extinguished, the patient may suffer severely from shock. In the second degree, blisters form on the injured part. Care must be taken not to tear the blis ters— in removing the burned cloth ing, for example. A little snip with clean scissors or two or three punc tures with a clean needle should bo made in the part o f the blister which protrudes most, and as soon as the water has drained away the part should be covered with a cloth wet with soda aluution o r » with equal parts of limewater and olive oil— called carron oil. 1 In burns of the third degree the upper layer o f the skin is destroyed. This is the most painful of burns, for the sensitive cutaneous nerves are exposed. The first thing to do is to cover the part so as to protect the bared nerve endings from con tact with the air. The same dress ing as that for burns o f the second decree will give relief until the phy sician comes. Carron oil is best, hut the soda solution is better than nothing and much better than plain water or oil. In burns o f the fourth degree— the third and fourth degrees usually oocur together— the skin is-burned through and the hare flesh is ex posed. This, strange as it may seem, is less painful than a third degree burn, fdr now the nerve end- ings, which receive and transmit the painful sensations, are entirely destroyed. It ia more serious in its after effects, because it always leaves a scar which is disfiguring and may contract and draw the part out o f shape. In burns o f the fifth degree the muscles and other tissues are more or less extensively disintegrated, and in those o f the sixth degree the entire limb—finger, hand, arm, foot or leg—is destroyed. In all these severe* bums there is more or less shock, which may he so profound as to kill, and there are also serious symptoms-- caused by congestion o f the internal organs and probably also by a poison form ed in the burned tissues.— Youth’s Companion. “ The dog ia man’s companion; the elephant is his slave,” writes Sir Samuel W. Baker in "W ild Beasts and Their Ways.” The dog ■hares with his master the delight o f hunting and defends him from an enemy’s attack, hut an enemy might kill an elephant’s mahont and tha beast would not interfere to save him. Ha never volunteers his serv ices, although ha can be trained to do certain acts, for ha has a wonder ful capacity for learning. But he will not do them unless he is or dered to by his mahout, to whoso lidgnce he submits because he lows thati disobedience will bring punishment. The mahout, sitting on the ele phant’s neck, governs the animal by an iron hook and spike, which re sembles a boat hook and weighs from four to six pounds. The ma hout drives the elephant forward by digging the point of the spike into itsn ead and pulls him back by in serting the hook in the tender bese o f the ears. Without the hook tho elephant is like the donkey without the stick. He obeys not from affec tion, but because he knows he will be punished if he disobeys. An elephant whose mahout rules him responds to the secret signs of his driver. The gentle pressure o f the mahout's toe, the compression of his knee, the delicate touch o f bis heel or the slightest swaying o f his body to one side guides the mighty beast as a ship is guided by an al most imperceptible movement of the rudder. But the mahout must himself he cool and free from all nervousness if he expects the ele phant to obey him. Illustrating the fact that ■ poor driver makes a disobedient elephant, Sir Samuel -says a man may sit a horse gracefully, but if he has not the gift of a “ good hand” there will be little com fort for the animal and no ease for the rider. A rider with a “ bad hand” makes the fact known to the horse almost as soon as he •eats himself in the saddle. The re sult is that the horse becomes nerv ous and does not perceive what his master wishes him to do. The elephant is not bitted and therefore is not disturbed by a “ had hand.” But if the mahout ia nerv ous or hesitates or vacillates he will he sure to have a “ had knee” or a “ bad too.” His mood will in fluence his muscles, and the ele phant feels that the mahout does not exactly know what he is about. Instead o f obeying instantly the pressure o f knee or toe, the animal vacillates, swings his head, be comes unsteady and if engaged in bunting or scenting a tiger turns round and runs away— made a cow ard by his master’s nervousness. The Chief Requisite. Whole provinces of the Tibetan borders o f China have been convert ed into uninhabitable, sandy desert, which centuries ago were fertile and well watered and supported rich cities, apparently in consequence of the destruction of forest. The formation of desert is due in the first place to the deatruction of for est, the consequent formation o f a barren, sandy area and the subse quent spreading o f the “ disease” or “ desert nicer” by the blowing of the fatally exposed sand. Sand des erts are not, as used to he supposed, sea bottoms from which the water has retreated, hut areas of destruc tion o f vegetation— often both in central Asia and in north Africa started by the deliberate destruction of forest by man, either by artificial drainage starving the forest or by the simple use o f the ax or fire.— Chicago News. course, feats, such as balancing a walking stick on his forehead or tossing a ball from behind his hack over his shoulder and catching it as it falls. I f one is really fond of juggling he may invent his own problems. Here are a few axioms: It is easier to balance a thing on your head than on your hand. Up to the point where great phys ical strength is required the larger the object the easier it is to balance. Thus it is easier to balance a walk ing stick on your forehead than it is a pencil One should always look at the top o f whatever he ia balancing. Begin ners make the mistake o f looking at the bottom or the middle of thé stick or whatever is being juggled. Again, when catching things do not watch your hands. Keep your eye on the object, just as you would to catch a batted hall. In all balancing feats it should he remembered that the shape of the object is immaterial. Wbat one has to do Is to balance an imaginary line passing vertically through the center o f gravity o f the object, or, in other words, to keep its axis per pendicular to whatever it is bal anced upon. Juggling is said to he the best and healthiest of indoor exercises, because it does not weary, because it develop« every part o f the body,’because it trains the hand and the eye and because it makes for grace.— New York Tribune.

Sir Peter laughed at the supposi tion, hut the sirdar stood his ground, and the matter was put to the test. An egg was suspended on a wall, and the soldiers fired at it; but, strange to say, not one o f them hit the egg. The governor and his suit kept their pountenances and excused the nonsuccess of the firing party on the ground of the difficulty o f the thing. At last a ball hap pened to hit the thread to which the egg was fastened, and it fell to the ground without breaking. Now the mystery was solved. The cun ning Afghan had used a blown egg, and the featherweight shell had been moved aside each time by the current o f air in front o f the ball and thus escaped being hit. Snubbed a Duka. ’ Manners mark the man, hut the typical Briton resents any advance from a stranger with a cold stare. Yet it is an Englishman who nar rates an incident of railway travel. On the way to London in a first class compartment were two well dressed men. Opposite them sat an elderly ntleman, whose fur coat and silk t both looked shabby. The elder ly man made a remark about the weather. The others stared at him with insolent silence. When the train reached Waterloo there cam* two tall flunkeys in fur tippet* and corded hats to the door o f our com partment, and one of them said to the shabby old gentleman, "Y our grace, the carriage is here.” Where upon the two snobs turned thirteen different kinds of green and pink and purple, and 1 went on my way rejoicing. The cads had snubbed a duke.—Washington Herald. C T o Paint?

Richard Watson Gilder had a dry wit o f his own. He once received a call from a young woman who wish ed to secure material for an article o f 3,000 words on “ Young Women In Literature.” “ It was a fetching subject, full of meat,” explained the young woman afterward, “ and I saw not only 3,000 words in the story, but at least 6,000. But I never got any further than the first question. Mr. Gilder’s answer took the very life out o f me. I asked him, 'Now, Mr. Gilder, what would you say was the first, the chief, the all essential requisite for a young woman enter ing the literary field F I waited with bated breath, when he answered, ^Postage stamp«!’ ” Where She Draw the Lin*. A story of a little maiden who finally asserted her rights is related in an exchange. She was only three years old, and it was her first visit to a number of relatives. Aunts, unclas and cousins crowded around her and kissed her over and over again. She stood it patiently and gave every kiss that was asked for without demur. After awhile, when she had run the gant let o f affectionate relatives, Uncle Tom said, “ Now, baby, I'll take you out to see the cow.” Outside the door she stopped and shook her little head. “ Uncle Tom ,” •he said, “ I won’t kiss the cow !” And Uncle Tom took pity upon her and did not insist.
