HEALTH Measles. There are three i to port-ant warn ings that everyone should ffieed v_uhen measles is in question--do not ^haye the disease if you can help it ; do not regard it as o-f no importance importance if vou catch it; do not think that you can safely be careless during during convalescence. Formerly everyone everyone believed that it was necessary to have measles, and it was slight- in sly referred to as a trifling disease disease of childhood." We have learned learned better nowadays. An attack 3f measles may indeed be" so mild that the- patient hardly feels ill at all, and in that case it is difficult to persuade him that he must stay in bed and submit to a careful routine treatment. In an attack of average severity, the patient patient is; usually willing to go to bed for a few days, and for this length of time he is likely to feel a natural indifference to food. After. th e catarrhal catarrhal symptoms occasion. the greatest distress they are often extremelv violent until the eruption appears," The mucous membranes of the eyes, nose, and throat are al f affected' ; at once, the li<fe are swol- X>n, the sufferer cannot bear the ■^îierht, the nose runs constantly, the throat is sore, and there is more or less cough. At- this stage there is usuallv some rise of temperature, and sometimes vomiting and headache. headache. By the third day there comes a sudden turn for the better, and the patient recovers his spirits as his temperature falls. The apparent improvement may deceive those who are unfamiliar with the disease, but in another day or two the fever returns, returns, and the characteristic eruption eruption appears. In an ordinary attack of measles, the patient is not much weakened by his disease, and it seems hard to be shut up during convalescence and obliged to stay in bed, although he feels perfectly well. But that is the only safe "course to pursue, for measles can cause ear and' eye troubles, as well as internal comph- " cations that are much worse than the original disease.--Youth's Companion.

Queen Mab was riding through a field one day when she heard loud voices coming from a cluster o u tercups. She knew, very well, that the •buttercups were always a well- behaved family and, therefore, tne angry voices must come from someone someone else. .Stepping out of her chariot chariot she softly stole nearer and hid herself behind a bunch of daisies. "Ho ! Ho 1 I'll take your honey as often as I choose," chuckled the loud voice. "That's what you have done until I am much displeased," said the faint voice, which Queen Mab un mediately knew belonged to the but tercup. "Ha ! Ha !" jeeringly laughed the other. "You must make up your mind to be displeased forever then." , , , This time, Queen Mab peeped out who this rude speaker was "Serves him right," they all cried, and nodding a "Good evening" evening" to the buttercups, they went their way. Thus, the beetle was cheated out of his supply of stolen honey, and to- this day you will find the honey scales just as the fairies placed them in the buttercups.

One of the most interesting of bells is the one at Lloyd's, the great London marine insurance exchange. Its ringing has more significance than the sound ^of most bells, ^for it is rung only when a vessel is reported reported lost, or when a ship long overdue and considered lost unexpectedly unexpectedly reaches port. It "was not very long ago, says a writer in Tit-Bits, that its clanging announced the safe return of the Snowdon Range, which arrived in a battered condition at Queenstown fifty-two days out_ from Philadelphia, Philadelphia, and long believed lost. Her loss would have cost Lloyd's something something like £100,000, and it is little wonder, therefore, that the underwriters underwriters cheered when they heard the news. , The bell now used at Lloyd s belonged belonged to the Lutine, which was wrecked near the Zuider Zee m October, 1799, while taking specie from English merchants to Hamburg.

ON THE DECK OF A BRITISH DREADNOUGHT The next morning the big, burly beetle .brought a number of his friends along and, of course, straightway made for the buttercups buttercups to steal their honey. "Come, friends !" he called out boldly, "let me show you how I get- the sweets." \ The buttercups said nothing only waited. The beetle climbed up one of the stems, pulled the buttercup buttercup doxvn and looked for the honey. Of course, as the scales covered it, he could not find any and tried another another one. This proved to be just as the first one. "I can't understand these lazy flowers !" he screamed angrily, try ing a third and a . fourth without without finding a drop of honey. _ His friends now began to laugh at him while all the while he grew angrier. angrier. To make matters worse for the furious beetle some bees flew near, helped themselves to the honey, for the buttercups let them have"it, and then flew away, crying : "Oh, what sweet honey we always find here in the buttercup " This also made the friends of the beetle laugh until they shook all over. At last the -big beetle became so ashamed of himself that he ran away as quickly as his legs could carry him. The jeers and laughter of all the beetles he had-brought to teach how to steal honey from the flowers, sounded after him.
