"The hardest tare that six strong
men and a boy of 16 ever kept alive
on was the daily menu of the Wind-
over's Burvlvers, who were cast up
on the Irish coast near Kllsegg. They
lived for sixteen days on stewed rope
yarn, without a crumb of anything
else to help digest it, except water;
and, though It made them ill, they
kept alive on It, and did not waste
away very much," says a writer io

Coffee Cultivation In Mexico.
The cultivation of coffee has been
attempted In the Mesa de Coroneles,
forty miles from Tuxpam, Mexico, al
an elevation of 800 to 1,000 feet above
the sea level, but only in rare In-
stances has It been satisfactory,
although the few who have succeeded
claim that it is of superior quality,
and Bells from two to three cents a
pound more than the grade in other
and lower sections of Mexico.

Motherhood.
Growing children will keep any
proper woman young In spirit and In
mind, will retard the development
of that sour yet complacent cynicism
which curses old age both for one's
self and for those about one. The
woman—the rich sort of women—
who has children drinks every day
a deep draught at the fountain of
eternal youth.—Exchange.

DO YOU KNOW
Japanese Will Grow Taller.
It is predicted that In a generation
*r two the Japanese will be as tall as
the average European or American.
The Japanese spine is as long as ours.
The shortness of leg is due to the
now abandoned habit of sltUag upon
the ankles, by which the arteries
were "kicked" and the growing bones
deprived of proper nourishment.
Rodents for Food.
In an article on the eating of rats
»nd mice the London Medical Press
asserts that, "apart from prejudice,
there Is no particular reason why wa
should not feed on our domestic ro-
dents." The editor seems to havo the
courage of his convictions, for he
adds: "Their flesh Is delicate anij
savory."

Pays for Adulterating Sweets.
A grocer In Liverpool, England, was
! recently fined $25 and coBts for selling
1 marmalade containing over five grains
of salicylic acid a pound. The offense
was held to be aggravated by the fact
that properly made marmalade will
keep for years without the addition
of a single preservative.
Christian Endeavorers in India.
It Is claimed that the Christian En-
deavor movement has been of more
value to young Christian life in IndU
than It has in America.

Employment of Russians.

The fellow who invests In mines
sometimes comes out minus.
Knee breeches are said to be worn
once again at evening functions in
London, and though the cynic might
suppose that onlr asses affect them
Bio sage is bound to admit that, after
all. It is a matter of calves.
A Philadelphia man has discovered
how to turn silver into gold. His
kindly conservatism is such that he
proposes to produce only $100,000,000
a year, for fear of disturbing busi-
ness conditions. Meanwhile an inter
est in his company may be purchased
for a small consideration.
Two Good Rules.
There are two good rules which
ought to be written on every heart-
never to believe anything bad about
anybody unless you positively know
it to be true;.never to tell even that
unless you feel that it Is absolutely
necessary and that God is listening
while you tell It.

Agriculturists deplore this wholesale
slaughter of "birds which feed largely
on noxious Insects."
A Beauty Nightcap.
The best beauty nightcap fs hot

nourish the skin and to banish wrin
kles. But remember, milk should not
be taken after a heavy late supper or
dinner, or indigestion will probably
follow.
