It is not oft we fold our weary hands; Unmindful of the working world’s de mands, Let’s welcome peace, our seldom guest; A cold, gray wall by care caressed, Forbidding before us grimly stands.

Our article is suggested by one in The Lancet on “The Wear and Tear of Lon. don Life,” ami we shall appropriate seine of ita thong/ ts Braiy work, even in its highest fo ins, involves purely physical acta as truly as does that of the muscles of the stomach. “Excessive thought means crebral hyperannia as inevitably as excels in the use of a gastric stimu lant means active congestion of the mucous membranes of the stomach, and just as habitual use of too irritating food and drink may induce passive congestion in the intervals, or the sequel of active congestion of the gastric organ, so may too |x;i-sistcnt and excessive brain work tend to the production of a chronic en largement of the vessels of the enceph- i” (the brain), “with whatever the al fact in vol vet» or entails.” •ifect similarity of law governs the lopinent oi disorders of brain and .y.

Tiie times demand in this coun- * try, even more than in England, that . bruin workers should have a large re serve of energy, and a capacity for pro ducing force almost indefinitely to meet the demands of exceptional exigencies. Ju our country many enter the professions who are naturally equal to routine work, but are wholly unequal to the strains of comj)etition and to the multiplied and varied demands which so characterize our times. They constantly and peril ously strike the limits of their congenital capacity. It is equally so in mercantile life. Not a few, who are equal to a small business, find out that they are not equal to a large one only after both physical and financial failure. It is only less so in many other forms of business. Thou sands attempt more than they are equal to, the continual pressure of which re Sults in nervous exhaustion. Somewhat akin to these are teachers in our common schools.

So. also, our political system constant l\ brings forward new men who must tit themselves for new and difficult duties at an immense cost to the brain. The physical condition of some of our public men is simply a prominent illustration of this fact.—Youth’s Companion. Summer Drink* for the Country.

By the eyes we form our first impres sion of a person's character, and it is very seldom that we change that fl ret feeling, be it good or bail, without the strongest cause. Every trait and quality finds expression in these mirrors. Blue eyes betray two antithetic characters. Large and bright, they denote quick per ception and great susceptibility to ex ternal influences. In the gentler more often than in the sterner sex they are found coupled with fine, arched eye brows, in which case they indicate in men a refined nature ami esthetic tastes, and in women a lovable disposition, with a predilection for dresa, music, and the tine arts. It is a principle generally reoognixed by physiognomists that beauti ful eyes lietoken a corresponding beauty of character, amiability, trustfulness, honor and devotion.—Household Words. The Wheels and the T.lttle One«. “Did you ever hear how old John Knight said his father came to Georgia?" remarked an Atlanta judge. "Old John said that his father lived in the back- woods of North Carolina, and the first two-horse wagon he ever saw he took after it. He became no absorbed in the question of how long it would run !»■- fore the big wheels overtook the little ones that he followed itclearto Augusta, Gt»., before he gave out and had to stop.

THE LIME Brother Jean Fabre, a Savoyard of hurnbls pa rentage and obscure birth, conceived and executed the colossal work of piercing Mount Cenis and uniting Savoy and Italy. This gigantic scheme was earned out in defiance of all the obstacles that assailed its originators. After years of patient, unremitting toil, without the aid of the more perfect appliances of later days, this extraordinary man completed the tunnel and was proclaimed the con queror of mountains, the king of engin eers, the benefactor of his country. De sirous of obtaining the rest he had so richly earned. Monsieur Fabre retired into the peaceful, comfortable villa he had erected, and prepared to live there with his only daughter.

In Paris a large (sister is likely to recom mend a new book or newspaper, in Ix>n- don a new jam. or a new soda water, in New York a new brand of tobacco to smoke or to chew. The comparison is not to the disadvantoge of the French man. Another thing to be noticed is that the press is called upon to do public work more often here than in England or even in America. If there is a great catastrophe the newspapers not only open a subscription; they are also ex pected to organize an entertainment, a performance, or a fete of some kind. And the political newspapers combine in groups as nominating conventions. There was an election here in Paris the first or second Sunday in May, and M.
