NASH Soh dem mmenttn Where to rut the Pigpen.: blood and the circulation is clogged. | aldo struc of the system, thereby removing disease Advice From Sadik. Of the distinguished authors of Per- sia none perhaps has enjoyed a wider popularity than Sadi, who lived in the thirteenth century. . He was a great {raveler and a close observer, and his anecdotes and short stories are de- scribed as being founded on his own experiences and observations. In "Fer- sian Poetry For English Readers" Mr. S. Robinson quotes, the following from Sadi's writings: A pupil said to his instructor, "What am I to do, for people incommode me with the frequency of their visits to such a degree that their conversation produces a great distraction of my val- uable time?" : The teacher replied: "To every one who is poor lend and from every one who is rich borrow. They will not come about you again". Another example embodies excellent advice: A silly fellow, having a pain in his eyes, went to a farrier and asked him for a remedy. The farrier applied to his eyes something which he would have given to a1 animal, and it blind- ed him, upon which they made an ap- peal to the magistrate. The magistrate said: «rphis is no case for damages. It is plain that this fellow is an ass Or he would not have gone to a farrier." No man of enlightened understanding will commit weighty matters to one of mean abilities. nme prarmi gan's Tail One of the most entertaining chapters in natural history is that which relates to the many curious means that birds and other animals possess of deceiving the eyes of their enemies. Mr. E. San- dys, in writing of upland game birds, calls attentiod to a remarkable and beautiful instance. When the ptar- migan puts on its winter dress, it has a black tail One might suppose that this would attract attention to the bird crouching 02 the snow, hut in fact it serves: for concealment. Every projec- tion on a snowfield casts 2 dark shad- ow and that is what the tail of the motionless ptarmigan 1o0ks like, the body of thesbird resembling a mere hump on tlie white background. Old Coins From 0o1d Mints. The "mint house" in Boston existed about thirty-four years. Ail the coins jssued from it bore the dates 1652 or 1662, the same aies being used proba- bly throughout the thirty-four years of coinage. Some coins had been made in Bermuda for the use of the Virginia colony as early as 1644. Copper coins bearing the figure of an elephant were struck in England for the Carolinas and New gagand in 1604. Coins were 'E Lor Maryland bearing the effigy of Lord Baltimore. A mint was established in Rupert, Vt., by legisla- tive authority in 1785, whence copper cents were issued, bearing on one side a plow and a sun rising from behind hills and on the other a radiated eye surrounded by thirteen stars.
