The Eskimo hasnt brains enough nor business enough to worry, and he eats fat and grows fat Fat is produces in the system from other food, but if a ecertain anfount of fat s supplied, 1t is directly assimHated, and saves digestive work. In living on proteid only, as meat, one makes the necded fat from that, but the product prodiucesa a 8 severe strain on the Kkidneys, aunto-intoxica: tion is enconraged, and rheumatism, Bright's disease, or other disease due to kidney fallure {hmrt“’{af!um; perhaps). must in time, ensue. Fat can more easily be made from the car bohydrates, starch foods, bread, bananas, potatoes, ete., and fruit sugars, prunes, figs, dates, ete, but oil s worth about two and a half times as much for heat and fat, and if a little more than the system can use i taken it does little harm, -but great good in facilitating bowel action. Nuts, the chiet natural food, contain, on the average, 50 per cent. fat and we shall vet learn the sad mistake of the race in substituting -so .much starch, especially in fine white bread, for fat and fruit sugar (not cane sugar). If your staple diet is not largely nuts, take a spoonful of vegetable fat with a glass .of hot water or cocoa an hour before the morning and evening meal —fat coats other foods and interferes

Scuthern Mountaineers a Delight to the Antiquarian. The antiquarian finds endless interest in the British survivals among the people of the Blue Ridge and Great Smoky~ mountains, which are readily traced when one begins an intelligent search. Here is the pattern in a “bed kiver” which you have seen, perhaps, in English tapestry, and which must have been transmitted from mother to daughter for two or more centuries. Here is a snatch of song that you will not easily find in a book, but which harks back to circumstances of English town life quite remote from the experience of the singer. Prof. Shaler of Harvard once found a man in Wise county, Virginia, hunting with an English cross bow! Of course he owned a rifle, as well, but powder was hard to get, and he had not lost

Origin of the Variety Stage

Name Conferred on It Legitimately Many Years Ago. It is not easy to trace the 'variety stage back to its earliest beginnings, for the scent begins to grow faint in ante-bellum days and the trail loses itself beyvond recall in the early "40's about which period we encounter traces of what may be called the “Bill Valentine Myth.” This I will relate as it was imparted to me by Mr. Valentine himself, in the small Coney Island pavilion that he conducted during his later years. ‘Mr. Valentine’s story is that many years before the civil war, probably in the early '4o's, he opened a small place of amusement somewhere on the East side. (It must have been small indeed, for there is no record of it in T. Alston Brown's “History of the New York Stage.”) Uncertain what to.call his place of entertainment, he applied to a friend for a fitting name. . “What sort of an entertainment are you going to give?” said the friend.

Darwin’s Use of Stimulants. In a centenary show case exhibition of Darwin’s books, ete., in the Manchester (Eng ) reference library, are a number of unpublished autograph jetters, one of which exjlaing what the great sclentist's practice was as to stitnulants. To a’ query addressed o him on the subfect he replied; “1 drink one glass of wine daily, and I believe 1 should be better without any, although all doctors urge me to drink more wine, as I suffer much from giddiness. "1 have taken snuff all ‘my life, and ! regret that | ever acquired the habit” : He adds, however, that he finds snuf® taking “a great stithulus and aid in my work.” As to smoking, Darwin says:, : : . 1 dally smoke two little naper cigareftes of Turkish tobacco. This Is not a stimulus, but rests me aflter my work, or after 1 have been compelled to talk, which tires me more than anything else. | am now 73 years old.”

Y “Well, I'm going to give a variety of things,” said Mr. Valentine, “Then why not call it a varlety show?” suggested the other. And thereupon, according to this myth, the term ‘“‘variety show” came into use.—James L.

It would be interesting to know what “cat in gely” is, but Dr. Kitchener does not’ give the recipe, merely stating that it was a favorite medieval dish. Chinese Take Liking to Canned Miik.

father was proud and Battered But I~ Well, there was a young and buoid Bige racer who used to climb the hill from the valley: and on soft, mooniess evenings, when my father slept and my mother pretended that she did not hear 1 siid down and met him among the deep grasses that grew half way wp the hijl AL those hours of first Jove! Poor kuman beings, who pass your nighis within the four walls of a room, 1 pity you! We were only snakes. But we had tha night and all its sweels woven forever through our love: Soft winds, gconted’ with the pines on the crest of the Blue mountains, r'i;»is‘wd the ‘grasses ‘above us, as we tasted the bllss of loving companionship. The *nighzhawk sank to blow his shrill bugle-like Bbote beside us; the stars glowed rediy - through the bhreathing dusk: from the canyons _far up !n the hills come the modrnful cry of a coyote. Down under the velvet grasses ft was dark and sweel, and we were alone, and we loved. . : When at length 1 stole home and ecclled mysell on the smooth siocnes 1 could not sleep. [ lay motionless ‘until the pale greens and yellows ecamé marching up the east, and the trees on the mountain's crest turned, one by one, to gold, and the meadowlarks samg, ob, so sweetly, in the val jey where I knew he lay as motionless as I, dreaming of joys that had been and longing for those that were to be. Ther: was a menth full of such bliss. But a day came when my father knew: and that night the king of rattlesnakes went down the hill in my stead, and lay in wait for his rival When 1 was convinced that they had killed him, I stole away In the night and made m¥ way to the other side of the valley, and dwelt alone on another hill and mourned. There were no snakes and there were no human’ things. And, oh, the days were long, and, oh, the nights were lonely. ' -Deep and passionate was my griet through all the spring, and eummer, and falll. When winter drew on, how glad was I to curl myself in a dark, warm place for my long sleep. I recall that my last thought was of how dreary and heart-breaking my awak‘ening would be in the spring. Yet when the awakening came—well, I am a female thing, ard that must be sufficlent explanation. : - It was on a warm and lovely day in April that I languidly uncoiled and slid out to lie upon the stones. Never shall I forget how the beauty of that day thrilled me! I was glad, m only to live once wore. My m . ]

This Indian pony was once the property of “Capt. Jack,” the Indian fighter of Lava Beds fame, and was captured among other ponies by a company of soliders of whom Capt. Harrison Kelley was the commander and was presented to Capt. Kelley.in ‘the’ spring of 1873, being then nearly seven years old, making him at the time of his death nearly forty-three years old. The animal was remarkable for endurance, superior intelligence and a gait that was very easy for his rider. Up to a short time before Capt. Kelley’'s death he rode the pony quite often, but of late years the snimal has been a privileged character, roaming at will during the spring and summer and receiving careful attention during the winter.—Burns Correspondence, Portland Oregonian. = In Character. e Wife—“ls there any difference be- . tween a fort and a fortress?” Hus . band—“ Not much, except, of course, that a fortress must be harder to sk
