But the boys in- sisted on taking their fallen game. with them ; so while Tom’s wounds were bound up, after a fashion, and both boys were being well fed, some of the men went after the old bear.

You het, when I get to be a man I won’t treat my little boys like that.” \Vhen the father had fimshed read- ing this, he looked at Frank a. moment and said : “Well, my bov, you are a genuine young American after all. Just go to your room and stay there for the rest of the evening, and hereafter don’t go outside the yard until I give you per- mission. I don’t like the way you ex- press your sentiments about me and things in general.’ Many persons, though not actually sick, th keep below par in strength and general tone, and I am of the opinion that fasting during the long interval between supper and breakfast, and especially the complete emptiness of the stomach during sleep, adds greatly to the amount of emaciation, sleeplessness, and general weakness we so . often meet. Physiogamy teaches that in the body there is a. perpetual disintegration ot tissue, sleeping or waking ; it is therefore logical to believe that the supply of nourishment should be somewhat con- tinuous, especially in those who are below par, if we would counteract the emaciation and lowered degree of vitality, and as bodily exercise is suspended during sleep with wear and tear correspondingly diminished, while digestion, assimilation, and nutritive continue as usual, the food furnished during this period adds more than is destroyed, and increased weight and improved general vigor is the result. All beings except man are governed by natural instinct, and every being with a stomach, except man, eats before sleep, and even the human infant, guided by the same instinct, sucks frequently day and . night, and if its stomach is empty for any ’ prolonged period, it cries long and loud. ' Digestion requires no interval of rest, and if the amount of food during the twent-four hours is. in quantity and quality, not beyond the physiological limit, it makes no hurtful differences to the stomach how few or how short are the intervals between eating, but does make a vast difference in the weak and emacrated one’s welfare to have a modicum of fo )d in the stomach during the time of sleep, that instead of being consumed by bodily action, it. during the interval improves the lowered system ; and I am fully satisfied that were the wearly. the emaciated, and sleepless nightly take a light lunch or meal of Simple. nutritious food before going to bed for a prolonged period, nine in ten of them would be thereby lifted into a. better standard of health. In my specialty (nose and throat), I en- counter caSes that in addition to local and constitutional treatment, need an increase ‘ of nutritious food, and I find that by directing a bowl of bread and milk, or a mug of beer and a. few biscuits, or a saucer of oatmeal and cream before going to bed, for a few months, a surprising increase in weight strength, and general tone result : I on the contrary, persons who are too stout I should follow an opposite course.â€"[Dr. on Wm.

Let your captive out but once the first day. Next day let him 9:0 in and out several times, and at the end of a week you may let it stand open all day. Notice your hird’s ways. If he is uneasy, running; back and forth on the bottom of the cage, he probably wants to he let out; if he runs from end to end of the upper perch he probably is hung: too low. Always put fresh seed in his dish, even if it is not half eaten, being careful to blow out the shells first. Never put two kinds together, and never leave shells on top of the seed. The canary is very troubleseme, scatterng seeds, looking for a favorite kind, which he has learned that he sometimes finds under the others. Water must of course he fresh every day, and twice if necessary. Gravel should cover the floor, fresh etery day also. Every morning wash in hot suds the dishes and perches that are soiled and the tray of the cage dryingr thorough- ly before returning.
