WHY WE TREMBLE. The Nerve Actions Superinduced by Cold, Fear and Anver. Cold, by stimulating the sensory nerve endings in the skin, produces a corresponding irritation in the brain motor centers and by contracting the blood vessels in the skin produces a temporary excess of blood in the brain. This interferes with the steady flow of nerve force to the muscles, so that the spasmodic action of these nerve currents produces the trembling due to cold.

Os trembling from fear or anger Darwin gives this explanation: “Men during long generations have endeavored to escape from their enemies by flight or violent struggling. These cause breathlessness and trembling of the muscles. Whenever fear is felt the same results tend to appear through the force of inheritance and association. Just as furious rage leads persons to make violent attacks on the object of their resentment, so in milder cases, though no such attack may be made, the beginning of violent exertion — namely, trembling of the muscles—tends to show itself. Hut the chief cause of trembling from fear or anger is, according to the same authority, the interruption or disturbance of the transmission of nerve force from tha cerebro spina! system, due to mental agitation. Why or how these emotions affect the cerebro spinal system through the mind in this way la not known.’’ The First Ise at Napkins. A French writer who evidently was conservative and did not welcome ths napkin kindly records with scorn: "The napkin is placed under the chin ami fastened in the buck, as if one were going to be sbayed. A person told me tluit be wore -bls that way that he might not soil .his beautiful frills.’’ It was a difficult matter to tie the two corners in the back, and it is said that thence originated our expression for straitened circumstances, "hard to make both ends meet.” This custom led to the habit of the table waiters of | carrying a napkin on the left arm. Barbarons Treatment nf Ibo Women. The Ibos have a barbarous custom of destroying twins. A woman who gives birth to twins Is regarded as something accursed, and the children are taken from her and thrown Into the bush to perish, while she is proclaimed an outcast and driven from the vil-! lage. To hold up two Angers to an Ibo woman Is to offer her the greatest insult possible. They are very superstitious. They worship idols of wood, mud and iron, which are regarded as protectors to be propitiated at various periods, and slavery exists among all the tribes.
