TRY TO PREVENT DISEASE.
A Thorough Physical Tatt May Point
th» Way to Saving a Life."*1
"Careful Investigation," says a health
bulletin, has shown that the physically
perfect man Is almost Impossible to
find. Almost every one who has reach
ed the age of thirty luis some Impair
ment or defect of his body. It may be
such a minor defect as a decayed
tooth or a slight digestive disturbance.
Or It may be trouble with the kidneys
that will develop Into Brlgbt's disease
If not attended to promptly. Little de
fects or Impairments. If neglected, may
cause untold suffering and lotus.
"If you have a regulur family physi
cian arrange with him for a thorough
overhauling of your body. This In
spection, which should be conducted
without clothing, should consist at
least of the following:
"Ilelgbt, weight, chest and abdominal
measurements and a survey of the
general bodily condition. Examination
of eyes, ears, nose, throat, mouth,
teeth, tongue, skin, glands, lungs,
heart, circulation, stomach, liver and
other abdominal organs. Examination
for evidences of rupture, varicose
veins, faulty posture, flat foot, spinal
curvature, deformities and asymme
tries. Tests of the vision and hearing.
T^sts of the brain and nervous system
for paresis, locomotor ataxia and other
central nervous affections or nervous j
Instability. Chemical and microscopic
examination of the urlue. Blood pres
sure tests.
"Such a thorough examination as Is
suggested here may be the means of
prolonging. If not of saving, life." ,
THE CAREFUL ELEPHANT.
Hia Bump of Caution Seama to Bo Ro
markably Well Developed.
Tbo uuthor of "From Jungle to Zoo,"
In explaining the difficulties of trans
porting wild animals by rail, gives a
striking example of I be elephant's cau
tiousness:
"The keepers generally place a heavy
platform from the door of the truck to
the ground, but few elephants will
venture on It. In one case the men
sent In a trained elephant tlrst In the
hope that the newly captured elephant
would follow. The new elephant stop
ped dead, however, threw up his trunk
and made It evident that he would go
uo farther.
"They offered him all kiuds of food
and addressed him with encouraging
words; they Ietl the trained elephant
out and then In again with a rush. In
the hope that the other would follow
In the excitement of (he moment. But
it all had no effect whatever; there the
balky one stood, waving his trunk and
glancing from left to right and then
from rlftht to left with his little crafty
eyes.
"At length after two hours of hard
work, when the men were exhausted
and streaming with perspiration, the
elephant suddenly lowered his trunk.
Seized the Inclined platform and threw
It away. Then, lifting up first one huge
foot and then another, he walked
quietly luto the truck and settled down
at once to a good meal."
The "English Lord" of Our Staga.
England, which Una given to the
itago Shakespeare, Sheridau, Oongreve,
Goldsmith, Colmau. Farijuhar, Mil
man, Bulwer, Barrlc and I'lnero, does
not contain In all its literature such a
character as tlie "English lord" of the
American theater. No one In England
has ever teen a lord with any likeness
to the American caricature. But he
"goes his way," and it has proved a
profitable one for the actor who spe
cializes, so to speak-, in stage English
lords. Will the procession ever end?
Can any one halt it? Can the silly ass
lord chuugo? It docs not seem prob
able. and I can hear liim now In rev
erie as he calls out. "Come, now, my
hftjly old top, and watch me making
lore to the blooming heiress, and, my
word. It will be ripping!"—Porcupine.
Cobbett and the Potato.
William Cobbett. the English econ
omist, was Griuly convinced that the
potato and prosperity could not ex
ist side by side, and be ijuotes with
approval the opinion of Sip Charles
Wdtseley that on ttie continent "in
ivhateviji proportion the cultivation of
potatoes prevails tlie working people
ire wretched." He is indeed constantly
jlrding at the vegetables, and in his
•Rural lUdes" recounts noting with sat
isfaction in the course of a Journey
from St. Albans to Chesham that he did
aot see "three acres of potatoes in this,
whole tract of fine country."

Marconi's Appropriate Drawing,
Mrs. Alec Twcedle'is book dealing
with her wonderful collection of auto
graphed tableclothn- ;i hobby of hers—
contains the following:
"Among the little drawings on one
of tho cloths," writes the authoress,
"Is a telegraph pole from which hangs
a broken wire.
"Can you guess v.ho drew It? T':e
artist was sit ling beside file when I
begged for r<Jine!!iifig raore than a
name. Ite quietly replied:
"'Well, 1 can draw u little If I hare
time.'
"'You shall have all the time you
want,' I suggested. 'We can keep the
dessert wail big.'
" 'No, no, I'll try to be quick. Would
a telegraph pole do';'
"'Certainly, though It will hardly be
emblematic of J'our .work."
" 'Yes, It will.' rejoined iny guest, 'for
I can break the wire.' "
Needless i > add, the guest hi question
was Signor Marconi, the Inventor of
wireless telegraphy.
Growsoms Mascot.
Mme. Bertha, who was deported from
her sumptuous mnnsiou in the west end
of London as an "Undesirable alien"
a few years ago, had an upper room,
which her servants irreverently called
her "vault." hung with somber black
curtains aud, in the center, mounted
on trestles, the most elaborate speci
men of the undertaker's art that could
be imagined, says a writer in London
Tit-Bits. It was of polished rosewood,
finely worked with silver mountings,
very massive. On the name plate was
delicately engraved •'Bertha Trost."
The favorite entertainijient of this no
torious beauty specialist and "reincar
nation of Marie Antoinette" wag a re
ception to "vle.jr my mascot," as she
termed this coftln, and she would ex
plain to her startled guests that she
kept it near at hand to reconcile her to
the Idea of death.
Potted Tragedies.
A burly bachelor met a winsome wid
ow. lie was sorry over afterward.
A grocer once saw his errand boy
running. The old gentleman had a
stroke.
John Henry Introduced his sweet
heart to his brother Willie. She is now
John Henry's sister-iu-law.
As his wife's mother was departing
after u six mouths' sojourn Juggins
asked her sarcastically to stop a little
longer. She stayed another six months.
A man questioned the veracity of a
pugilist. The man's wife did not rec
ognize him on his arrival home.
A clergyman once saw nothing but
gold and silver in the collection bor.
The shock awakened him'.—London
Mail.
A Real Providence.
Mr. Youngbusbund reached home late
for dinner.
"1 got pinched for speeding on the
way houie." he explained rather sheep
ishly. "Have to appear tomorrow morn
ing and get .*10 or fifteen days."
Mrs. Younghnsband fervently clap
ped two blistered little hands. '"What
a providence!" she cried devoutly.
"You must take the tlfteeu days. John!
The cook lias just left!" — Harper's
Magazine.
Consoling Him.
"Junt because that guy has a little
coin he looks down on me. If I had
money I'd tix him."
"The desire for wealth is often con
nected with some scheme for reprisal,
old top. Perhajts that is why the
wealth Is not forthcoming." -Louisville
Courier-Journal.
"Nugget" was formerly used to sig
nify a bit or leinp of anything, as a
"nugget of tobacco." Nowadays, Bow
ever, it is used principally of gold as It
monies froui the mlue. This use is Aus
tralian. Governor Sir William Denl
son of Australia wrote In 1852, "In
many instances the guld is brought to
market in lumps or uuggeU a. the/
are 'ailed."

PRACTICAL HEALTH HINT.
TH# Abuse of Purgatives.
It may sound absurd, but the
true reason why so many people
constantly have recourse to pur
gatives to keep in condition is
that purgative drugs are so easy
to obtain. In other words, very
often the person who prescribes
a purgative for himself instead
of lessening his tendency to con
stipation is only confirming his
digestive tract in its habits of
sluggishness. The Intestine is
just like a human being in that
if it can get its work done for
it it will become slack and lazy.
If used to receiving the stimulus
of a powerful purgative drug
several times a week or even
nightly it readily gets into such
a condition that it is unable to
carry out its work properly with
out this stimulus.
