These are perfectly perfectly serious questions. ISie guinea-pig guinea-pig (which is not a pig at all, but a rodent related to the rabbits, and which does not come from Guinea, Guinea, but from South America) is as edible as a hare or a squirrel--a little bundle of fat, perfectly wholesome, wholesome, flesh. It is small, to be sure, but eo are several other game : animals animals that we seek for. the table ; a full-grown one will weigh nearly two pounds, dressed. The animal, which is. rarely a cavy, is nice in. its habits, and feeds wholly on grain and green vegetables. vegetables. It is not subject to the internal internal parasites, such as tapeworms, tapeworms, that afflict so many rabbits, rabbits, and its flesh tastes much like that of a squirrel. Its relatives, ! the rock-cavy, the agouti and the ! capybara, are highly esteemed in ; South America. When the Spaniards conquered Peru, they found the ancestors of •our pet cavies an ordinary and favorite favorite food. The natives prepared them much as we do a sucking pig, by scalding and scraping bfl *thè hair, and then roasting or baking the carcass whole. European travellers travellers since have found the meat excellent when thus baked or roasted, roasted, when made into stews, or served in a, curry. It is best when the animal is about a year old. Guinea-pigs are easily and cheaply reared, increase rapidly, and could readily be furnished by the thousand thousand to town markets, or kept to serve the home table. It is a waste of opportunity not to make use of •-the : animal'-for food, : , • " The peace strength of the German.

This means actually what it says, that this great force will be ready to move in a day and; actually moved without without confusion v>r delay by railroad schedules always prepared to positions positions on the French line in two or four hours more.

Cerebral anaemia seems to be an important factor, and this is probably associated with exhaustion exhaustion of the brain and chemical changes due to an accumulation of fatigue products, with consequent •diminished receptivity for afferent stimuli. We are aware that ~ sleep may be disturbed by a multitude of causes, but- in its perfect expression expression we only know it as "Nature's sweet restorer," upon.which we aU. dépend absolutely for health and happiness. A hard-and-fast- rule cannot be applied to indicate the amount of sleep required by every individual in order to secure complete complete restoration of nervous energy. No two persons are similarly con : stituted, for whereas one is refreshed refreshed and reinvigorated by four or five hours' repose, another requires seven or eight hours to achieve s like result. Sex, age, -temperament, -temperament, occupation, habits, climate, and environment are all factors of importance- which bear upon, the faculty of sound sleep,.and as each of these conditions is of individual application, it follows that the personal personal equation makes any general rule impossible of-universal application. application. :V : ri ; THirik of a girl's fate depending on such a trivial thing as the color of her parasol. Polly Moore had an engagement with young Phil .Fuller, rind when he rode up to trike her out that June afternoon he was surprised to learn that she was too ill to go.

She must have been happy, trying to keep three plumes from blowing off the back of her hat with one hand and with the other vainly pushing back the short hair about her face that whipped into her eyes. Phil hoped that she was telling the truth, : that she was too happy for words, ' for. he wanted to meditate. meditate.
