not to announce an engagement until the date of the marriage is approximately settled4 ,long engagements are irksome to both man and woman1 and a man is generally not supposed to ask a girl to marry him until he is able to provide a home for her4 ,this1 however1 does not prevent long friendships between young couples or a sentimental understanding growing up between them1 and it is during this period that they learn to know each other and find out if they are suited for a life's partnership4 ,when a young man goes a-courting it generally means that he has some particular girl in mind whom he has singled out as the object of his devotion4 ,a man a-courting is generally on his best behavior1 and many a happily married wife looks back on her courting days as the most delightful of her life4 ,at that time the woman is the object of a devotion to which she has as yet conceded nothing4 ,she is still at liberty to weigh and choose1 to compare her lover to other men1 while the knowledge that she is the ultimate girl that some man is trying to win gives her a pretty sense of self-importance and a feeling that she has come into the heritage of womanhood4 ,whether it is one of the fictions about courtship or not1 it is generally assumed that a young woman is longer in making up her mind than is the young man4 ,when a man finds the right girl he is pretty apt to know it1 and it is his business then to start out and persuade her to his point of view4 ,neither willing nor reluctant is the attitude of the young girl4 ,gifts and ,attention4 ,just what attention a man is privileged to show a young woman to whom he is not engaged1 and yet to whom he wishes to express his devotion1 is a point a little difficult to define4 ,if she is a bookish girl she will be pleased with gifts of books or the suggestion that they may read the same books so they may talk them over together4 ,she will probably feel complimented if a man discusses with her his business affairs and the problems that are interesting men in their life work4 ,when a man begins to call often and regularly on a girl it is best to have some topic of conversation aside from personalities4 ,when a man is led to spend more money than he can afford in entertaining a girl it is a bad preparation for matrimony4 ,courtship is a time when a man desires to bring gifts1 and it is quite right and fitting that he should do so within reasonable limits4 ,a girl of refined feelings does not like to accept valuable presents from a man at this period of their acquaintance4 ,flowers1 books1 music1 if the girl plays or sings1 and boxes of candy are always permissible offerings which neither engage the man who offers them nor the girl who receives them4 ,this is the time when a man invites a girl to the theater1 to concerts and lectures1 and may offer to escort her to church4 ,the pleasure of her society is supposed to be a full return for the trouble and expense incurred in showing these small attentions4 ,the ,claims of ,companionship4 ,a man cannot justly complain if a girl accepts similar favors from other men1 for until he has proposed and been accepted he has no claim on her undivided companionship4 ,an attitude of proprietorship on his part1 particularly if it is exercised in public1 is as bad manners as it is unwise1 and a high-spirited girl1 although she may find her feelings becoming engaged1 is prone to resent it4 ,it should be remembered that a man is free to cease his attentions1 and until he has finally surrendered his liberty he should not expect her to devote all her time to him4 ,at this period it is a wise man who makes a friend of a girl's mother1 and if he does this he will generally be repaid in a twofold manner4 ,no matter how willful a girl may be1 her mother's opinion of her friends always has weight with her4 ,moreover1 what the mother is the girl will in all probability become1 and a man has no better opportunity of learning a girl's mental and moral qualities than by knowing the woman who bore and reared her4 ,engagement and ,wedding ,rings4 ,the form and material of the mystic ring of marriage change but little1 and innovations on the plain gold band are rarely successful4 ,the very broad1 flat band is now out of date and replaced by a much narrower ring1 sufficiently thick1 however1 to stand the usage of a lifetime4 ,it is generally engraved on the concealed side with the initials of the giver and the date of the marriage4 ,the gold in the ring should be as pure as possible1 and the color1 which depends on the alloy used1 should be unobtrusive1 the pale gold being better liked now than the red gold4 ,many women never remove their wedding ring after it has been put on and believe it is bad luck to do so4 ,there is but one choice for an engagement ring1 a solitaire diamond1 and clusters or colored stones are not considered in this connection4 ,as after the wedding the engagement ring is used as a guard to the wedding ring1 it should be as handsome as possible1 and a small1 pure stone is a far better choice than a more showy one that may be a little off in color or possess a flaw4 ,correct ,form in ,jewelry4 ,on the wedding day the groom often makes the bride a wedding present of some piece of jewelry1 and if this is to be worn during the ceremony it should consist of white stones in a thin gold or platinum setting1 such as a pendant1 bracelet or pin of pearls and diamonds4 ,if a colored stone is preferred--and a turquoise1 for instance1 adds the touch of blue which is supposed to bring a bride good luck--it should be concealed inside the dress during the services4 ,as a memento of the event a groom often presents his ushers with a scarf pin or watch or cigarette case ornamented with the initials of the bride and groom1 and the bride generally makes a similar present to her bridesmaids of some dainty piece of jewelry4 ,whether this takes the form of a pin1 bracelet or one of the novelties that up-to-date jewelers are always showing1 it should be the best of its kind4 ,imitation stones or silver gilt have no place as wedding gifts4 ,wedding ,customs4 ,there is no time in a woman's life when ceremonies seem so important as when a wedding in the family is imminent4 ,whether the wedding is to be a simple home ceremony or an elaborate church affair followed by a reception1 the formalities which etiquette prescribes for these functions should be carefully studied and followed4 ,only by doing so can there be the proper dignity1 and above all the absence of confusion that should mark the most important episode in the life of a man or woman4 ,wedding customs have undergone some changes of late years1 mostly in the direction of simplicity4 ,meaningless display and ostentation should be avoided1 and1 if a girl is marrying into a family much better endowed in worldly goods than her own1 she should have no false pride in insisting on simple festivities and in preventing her family from incurring expense that they cannot afford4 ,the entire expenses of a wedding1 with the exception of the clergyman's fee and the carriage which takes the bride and groom away for their honeymoon1 are met by the bride's family1 and there is no worse impropriety than in allowing the groom to meet or share any of these obligations4 ,rather than allow this a girl would show more self-respect in choosing to do away with the social side of the function and be content with the marriage ceremony read by her clergyman under his own roof4 ,invitations and ,announcements4 ,in the case of a private wedding announcement cards should be mailed the following day to all relatives and acquaintances of both the contracting parties4 ,evening weddings are no longer the custom1 and the fashionable hour is now high noon1 although in many cases three o'clock in the afternoon is the hour chosen4 ,whether the wedding is to be followed by a reception or not1 the invitations to it should be sent out not less than two weeks before the event1 and these should be promptly accepted or declined by those receiving them4 ,the acceptance of a wedding invitation by no means implies that the recipient is obliged to give a present4 ,these are only expected of relatives and near friends of the bride and groom1 and in all cases the presents should be addressed and sent to the bride1 who should acknowledge them by a prettily worded note of thanks as soon as the gifts are received or1 at the latest1 a few days after the marriage ceremony4 ,silver and ,linen4 ,the usual rule followed in the engraving of silver or the marking of linen is to use the initials of the bride's maiden name4 ,the question of duplicate gifts is as annoying to the sender as it is to the young couple who are ultimately to enjoy the gifts4 ,theoretically1 it is bad form to exchange a gift after it has been received1 but1 in truth1 this is often done when a great deal of silver is given by close friends or members of the family it is a comparatively easy matter to find out what has already been sent and to learn the bride's wishes in this matter4 ,prenuptial ,functions4 ,after the wedding invitations are out it is not customary for a girl to attend any social functions or to be much seen in public4 ,this gives her the necessary time to devote to the finishing of her trousseau and for making any necessary arrangements for the new life she is to take up after the honeymoon is over4 ,family dinners are quite proper at this time1 and it is expected of her to give a lunch to her bridesmaids4 ,the wedding presents may be shown at this occasion1 but any more public and general display of them is now rarely indulged in and is1 in fact1 not considered in good taste4 ,the groom1 as a prenuptial celebration1 is supposed to give a supper to his intimate bachelor friends and the men who are to act as ushers at the marriage ceremony4 ,the ushers are generally recruited from the friends of the groom rather than those of the bride1 but if she has a grown brother he is always asked to act in this capacity4 ,ushers1 like bridesmaids1 are chosen among the unmarried friends of the young couple1 although a matron of honor is often included in the bridal party4 ,the ,bride's ,trousseau4 ,the bride's trousseau should be finished well before the fortnight preceding the wedding4 ,fashions change so quickly now that it is rarely advisable for a bride to provide gowns for more than a season ahead4 ,if the check her father furnishes her for her trousseau is a generous one it is a wise provision to put a part of it aside for later use1 and in so doing she has the equivalent of a wardrobe that will last her for a year or more4 ,custom has decreed that the bride's wedding dress shall be of pure white1 and1 as the marriage ceremony is a religious one1 whether it takes place in a church or in a private house1 that it shall be made high in the neck and with long sleeves4 ,orange blossoms1 the natural flowers1 form the trimming to the corsage and a coronet to fasten the veil4 ,a bride's ornaments include only one gift of white jewelry1 pearls or diamonds1 from her future husband1 and the bouquet he presents her4 ,so many awkward moments have been occasioned in wedding ceremonies by removing the glove that brides are dispensing with wearing gloves at this time4 ,the bride's appearance is by no means affected by this custom1 and the slipping of the ring on the third finger of the left hand is made simpler and thereby more graceful4 ,the engagement ring1 which up to the time of the wedding ceremony has been worn on this finger1 afterwards serves as a guard for the wedding ring4 ,the ,bridesmaids4 ,millinery is a most important question in discussing a wedding1 and we cannot dismiss the question with the gown worn by the bride4 ,a most serious consideration is what the bridesmaids are to wear1 and this is generally only settled after long and serious consultation with the bride4 ,it is generally agreed that all of these gowns shall be made by the same dressmaker so that they may conform to the colors and styles decided on1 the gown of the maid or matron of honor differing slightly from the general scheme4 ,at a church wedding bridesmaids wear hats and carry baskets or bouquets of flowers1 but1 if bouquets are carried1 they should be quite unlike the one borne by the bride4 ,it is customary for the bride to give her bridesmaids some souvenir of the occasion1 and it is expected that the groom provide the gloves and ties for the ushers4 ,duties of the ,best ,man4 ,the duties of the best man are arduous1 and it is indeed wise1 as it is general1 for a man to ask his best and most devoted friend to serve in this capacity4 ,the best man is supposed to relieve the groom of all the details of the ceremony and to take on his shoulders all the worry incident to its success as a social function4 ,it is he who purchases the gloves and ties for the other ushers and sees that they are coached in their duties2 he procures the marriage license1 if that is necessary1 and has the ring ready for the groom at the critical moment4 ,after the ceremony he is supposed to hand the clergyman his fee1 and at the same time be in readiness to conduct the line of bridesmaids and ushers to their carriages4 ,he must be at the bride's home1 in case there is a wedding reception1 before the principal actors in the ceremony are there4 ,it is he who sends the notices of the event to the newspapers1 and1 if there is a formal breakfast with speech-making1 it is the best man who proposes the health of the newly-married pair and replies to the toast in behalf of the bridesmaids4 ,he is the one member of the wedding party who sees the happy couple off at the station and bids them the last farewell as they depart on their honeymoon4 ,this is perhaps the time and moment when his good sense and social tact is the most needed1 ,the foolish custom of decorating bridal baggage with white ribbon1 and of throwing a superabundance of old shoes and a rain of rice after the departing pair1 may be mitigated by a little care on his part4 ,,mourning ,,customs4 ,there has been of late years a healthy revolt against the excessive use of crepe or the wearing of mourning for an undue period4 ,mourning is first of all a protection1 for in these busy days and in a large city a death affecting our acquaintances is not always known to us4 ,if we meet a friend wearing black we are instantly apprised that she has suffered the loss of a near member of her family4 ,it is easy to say under such circumstances1 ,i am very sorry to see you in black1 or ,i am afraid ,i have not heard of your loss4 ,for a father or mother full mourning1 that is1 black unrelieved by any touch of white1 is worn for a year1 and at the end of that period half mourning1 consisting first of white with black1 and then violet and gray1 is worn for the second year4 ,for a brother or sister or grandparent black is worn for six months1 and then half mourning for the six months preceding the wearing of ordinary colors4 ,what is called complimentary mourning1 put on at the death of a relative by marriage1 consists of the wearing of black for a period of from six weeks to a year1 depending on the closeness of the personal relationship4 ,for instance1 in the case of the death of a mother-in-law residing in a distant city1 it would only be necessary for a woman to wear black for a few weeks following the funeral4 ,if1 on the other hand1 she resides in the same place and is a great deal in the company of her husband's family1 it would show more tact and affection on her part to refrain from wearing colors for a longer period4 ,crepe is no longer obligatory in even first mourning4 ,many widows only wear the crepe-bordered veil hanging from the conventional bonnet for the funeral services and for a few weeks afterward1 when it is replaced by an ordinary hat and veil of plain black net bordered with thin black silk4 ,widows wear neck and cuff bands of unstarched white book muslin1 this being the only sort of white permitted during the first period of mourning4 ,young widows1 especially those who must lead an active life1 often lighten their mourning during the second year and discard it at the end of the second year4 ,of course the conventional period of mourning for a widow is three years1 but1 if there should be any indication that a second marriage is contemplated1 black should gradually be put aside4 ,however1 the discarding of mourning is no indication that a woman is about to change her name1 and the wearing of black is so much a matter of personal feeling that a woman should not be criticised for curtailing the conventional period4 ,in this country it is not the custom for young children to wear mourning1 and with men the wearing of a black band about the hat or on the left arm is all that is deemed necessary4 ,a woman wearing full mourning refrains from attending the theater or any large functions4 ,she may properly be seen at concerts1 club meetings or lectures1 and she may receive and visit her friends informally4 ,,etiquette ,,of ,,the ,,visiting ,,card4 ,the prevailing shape for a woman's card is nearly square 7about #b-a_/b by #c inches71 while the correct form for a man's card is slightly smaller4 ,the color should be pure white with a dull finish1 while the engraving1 plain script or more elaborate text1 is a matter of choice and fashion varying from time to time4 ,it is safe to trust the opinion of a first-class stationer in this matter1 for styles fluctuate1 and he should be constantly informed of what polite usage demands4 ,a woman's card should always bear the prefix ,miss or ,mrs4 ,there is no exception to this rule save in the case of women who have regularly graduated in medicine or theology and who are allowed therefore the use of ,dr4 or ,rev4 before the name4 ,miss or ,mrs4 should not be used in addition to either of these titles4 ,the card of a married woman is engraved with her husband's full name1 such as ,mrs4 ,william ,eaton ,brown1 but she has no right to any titles he may bear4 ,if he is a judge or colonel she is still ,mrs4 ,james ,eaton ,brown and not ,mrs4 ,judge or ,mrs4 ,colonel ,brown4 ,a widow may with propriety retain the same visiting card that she used during the lifetime of her husband1 especially if she has no grown son who bears his father's name4 ,in that case she generally has her cards engraved with a part of her full maiden name before her husband's name1 such as ,mrs4 ,mary ,baker ,brown4 ,in this country a divorced woman1 if she has children1 does not discard her husband's family name1 neither does she retain his given name4 ,for social purposes she becomes ,mrs4 ,mary ,baker ,brown or1 if she wishes1 ,mrs4 ,baker ,brown4 ,the address is engraved in the lower right corner of the visiting-card1 and1 if a woman has any particular day for receiving her friends1 that fact is announced in the lower left corner4 ,as a rule even informal notes should not be written on a visiting-card1 although when a card accompanies a gift it is quite proper to write ,best wishes or ,greetings on it4 ,this is even done when a card does not accompany a gift1 but it should be borne in mind that a card message should not take the place of a note of thanks or be used when a more formal letter is necessary4 ,a man's visiting-card should bear his full name with the prefix ,mr4 unless he has a military title above the grade of lieutenant or is a doctor or clergyman4 ,in these cases the proper title should be used in place of ,mr4 ,courtesy titles1 although they may be common usage in conversation and a man may be known by them1 are best abandoned on the visiting-card4 ,during the first year of marriage cards are engraved thus3 ,mr4 and ,mrs4 ,william ,eaton ,brown and this card may be used in sending presents1 returning wedding civilities or making calls1 even when the bride is not accompanied by her husband4 ,after the first year these cards are discarded1 and husband and wife have separate visiting-cards4 ,in some communities it is not the custom for a young girl to make formal calls without her mother4 ,to meet this requirement the girl's name with the prefix ,miss is engraved on her mother's card1 below her mother's name4 ,it is no longer considered necessary to leave a number of cards at the same house when calling in person or sending cards4 ,if there are several women members of the family one card suffices4 ,if a woman wishes to leave her husband's card she should leave two1 one for the mistress and one for the man of the house4 ,a woman never leaves a card for a man unless she has called on him on a matter of business and wishes him to be reminded of the fact4 ,at a tea or large afternoon reception a card should be left in the hall as a guest departs1 so as to enable the hostess to preserve a record of those who have called on her4 ,if she is not able to attend she should send her visiting-card so that it may arrive on the day of the function4 ,after a dinner or any formal function she should make a personal call or leave her card in person4 ,when making an ordinary call it is not necessary to send one's visiting-card to the hostess by the servant who opens the door4 ,pronouncing the name distinctly is sufficient1 but1 if it is a first call1 and there is danger that the hostess may not be familiar with the caller's address1 it is best to leave a card on the hall table when leaving1 no matter if the hostess herself conducts her visitor to the door4 ,when one is invited but unable to attend a church wedding it is necessary to send1 on the day of the ceremony1 cards to those who issue the invitations4 ,an invitation to a wedding reception or breakfast demands a more formal acceptance sent immediately on receipt of the invitation and couched in the same manner in which the invitation reads4 ,a newcomer in town or a young married woman may receive a card from an older woman indicating her receiving days and hours4 ,this is a polite invitation to call1 and if she is unable to make a call at the time indicated she should send a card on that day4 ,cards of condolence are left as soon as possible after learning of the affliction4 ,it is not necessary to write anything on the card2 in fact1 it is better not to do so1 for1 if the acquaintance warrants a personal message1 it should take the form of a letter4 ,on the other hand it is quite proper in felicitating a friend on a happy event1 such as the announcement of an engagement in the family or the arrival of a new baby1 to send a visiting-card with ,congratulations written on it4 ,there are times when it seems necessary to send cards to practically all one's acquaintances1 ,this is wise after a long absence or a change of residence1 and when one is leaving town for a long period it is proper to send cards with the ,french expression1 ,pour prendre conge4 ,,formalities ,,in ,,dress ,,and ,,etiquette4 ,costly thy habit as thy purse can buy was old ,polonius' advice to his son1 and he counseled suitability as well4 ,it is this question of suitability that is the hall mark of correct dressing4 ,a safe rule to follow1 especially in the case of a young woman1 is not to be conspicuous in attire and to conform to the standards of dress as set down by older women of recognized standing in the town in which she lives and the community in which her social or business life is spent4 ,a young girl needs little adorning4 ,her school or college dresses should be characterized by their neatness1 freshness1 correctness of cut and utility rather than by elaborate trimmings or costly materials4 ,her party gowns are simpler than those of a girl who has left school1 and she wears less jewelry4 ,at the end of school life1 if her parents are able and willing to give her a coming-out party1 she begins her social career under the pleasantest auspices1 and this is the opportunity for her first elaborate gown4 ,the ,debutante4 ,the character of this gown depends largely on the nature of the entertainment given her4 ,it most commonly takes the form of an afternoon tea or reception to which her mother invites all of her friends as well as the younger set4 ,the debutante receives with her mother and wears an elaborate frock of light material and color1 made high in the neck and with elbow sleeves4 ,long white gloves are worn1 and her hair is more elaborately arranged than it was during her school-girl period4 ,in fact1 she is now a full- fledged young lady and is dressed accordingly4 ,such a gown may serve later as an informal evening gown1 or1 if it is made with a detachable yoke1 it may be worn as a dancing-frock or for any evening occasion for which a full evening gown is expected4 ,the receiving party at an afternoon function generally includes near relatives of the debutante1 and a number of her intimate girl friends are asked to assist in various ways4 ,these receive with her and her mother in the early part of the afternoon and later assist at the tea table or mingle among the guests4 ,the ladies assisting do not wear hats1 and the young girls in the party are gowned much like the debutante1 except that their gowns may be less elaborate if they choose1 and they do not carry flowers4 ,a popular girl or one with many family connections may count on a good many floral offerings on the occasion of her coming-out party4 ,these are scattered about the room1 either left in bunches or arranged in vases4 ,one large bunch she generally carries in her left hand1 and it is a wise girl who avoids singling out anyone of her men friends by carrying his flowers4 ,a gift from her father or brother or the flowers sent by some friend of the family is the better choice4 ,the success a girl makes during her first year in society depends more on her general popularity than on the devotion of any one man4 ,afternoon ,reception4 ,for an afternoon reception light refreshments1 consisting of tea1 coffee1 chocolate1 perhaps a light claret cup1 with cakes and delicate sandwiches1 are sufficient1 and these are set out on a long table in a room adjoining the reception parlors4 ,if a large number of guests are expected it is necessary to have a maid or two in attendance to remove cups and saucers1 keep the tea urn replenished with hot water and to bring additional cakes and sandwiches if the supply on the table is in danger of running short4 ,two women friends are generally asked to preside at the refreshment table1 one at each end to pour tea and chocolate1 and1 as this task is an arduous one and much of the success of the entertainment depends on its being well done1 it is advisable to relieve the ladies in charge during the afternoon4 ,this1 however1 like every other feature of the entertainment1 should be arranged beforehand4 ,the charm of an afternoon reception lies in its apparent informality1 but every detail should be considered in advance and all contingencies provided for4 ,the debutante1 and especially her mother1 should be relieved from all such responsibilities before the guests begin to come4 ,the mother's duties consist in welcoming her guests and presenting her daughter to them4 ,if many people are arriving the guests are quickly passed on to some one of the ladies assisting1 whose duty it is to see that they meet some of those who are already in the room and are eventually asked to the tea table4 ,a part of the receiving party1 and certainly the hostess and her daughter1 should remain together in a place where they may be easily found as the guests enter the room4 ,no more sympathetic act of friendship can be shown a debutante than to contribute toward the success of her party4 ,girls who are asked to assist should remember that their first duty is not to entertain their own friends who may happen to be present1 but to see that everyone is welcome and that especially those who are not acquainted with many in the room have an opportunity to become so4 ,anyone asked to assist at a function of this sort is in a sense a hostess1 and it is quite within her province to enter into conversation with any unoccupied guest whether she has been introduced or not4 ,the usual hours for an afternoon tea are from four to six1 but in the case of a coming-out reception the hour is often prolonged to seven so as to allow more men to be present than would be the case if the time were restricted to the early afternoon4 ,in these busy days few men are at liberty to make afternoon calls1 and it is always a compliment to a girl if her tea includes a sprinkling of black coats4 ,whatever hours are decided on1 they should be engraved on the cards sent out two weeks before the tea4 ,these are of the form and size of an ordinary visiting-card and include the daughter's name below that of her mother's4 ,if she is the eldest unmarried daughter or the only girl in the family the card reads as follows3 ,mrs4 ,geo4 ,baker ,blank ,miss ,blank ,december #i1 #aiaa #d to #g o'clock ,the daughter's given name is only used in case she has an older unmarried sister4 ,ball and ,evening ,reception4 ,a more elaborate form of coming-out party consists of a ball or of an evening reception followed by dancing1 and in this case the card contains the word ,dancing below the date of the entertainment and the hours at which it is given4 ,few homes are large enough to provide for even a small dance1 and so a party of this sort is generally given at a hotel4 ,the guests as well as the receiving party wear evening gowns without hats1 and men are expected to come in full evening clothes1 which means the long-tailed coats and not the popular ,tuxedo1 white gloves1 and1 although this is not obligatory1 white waistcoats4 ,after a girl has been introduced into society she has her individual visiting-cards1 makes her own calls and is allowed to receive her own friends4 ,social customs differ with locality1 and the chaperon is less customary in the ,west than in the ,east4 ,in many cities girls are allowed to go to the theater and to evening parties with a man friend without a married woman being included in the party4 ,a wise girl1 however1 is careful that any man she meets shall be introduced as soon as possible to some older member of her family and to introduce a young man calling for the first time to either her mother or father4 ,also when she accepts an invitation to an evening's entertainment she insists that her escort shall call for her at her own home and bring her directly home at the close of it4 ,dining or supping at a restaurant alone with a young man is sure to expose a girl to criticism4 ,a ,woman's ,lunch4 ,there are many pleasant forms of entertainment offered to a young girl entering society in which men are not included1 and the most popular of these is a woman's lunch4 ,this is a favorite form of entertainment for a young married woman to give in honor of some girl friend who has just come out in society or whose engagement has just been announced4 ,one o'clock or half after is the usual hour1 and the meal is served in courses and is as elaborate as the household resources may allow4 ,the decorations of the table are important1 and three courses are sufficient if they are carefully arranged4 ,handsome street costumes are worn for a function of this sort1 and the guest of honor1 if there is one1 dresses as the others do4 ,outer wraps are left in the hall or in a room put aside for this purpose1 and1 as a rule1 hats are retained and gloves removed when the guests sit down at table4 ,the custom of wearing a hat during lunch is not an arbitrary one1 and it is not universal4 ,in ,france1 for example1 where social customs are most carefully observed1 it is the custom to wear handsome afternoon gowns if invited for the noon meal and to remove hats4 ,the noon meal there is a social function1 and certain formalities are observed4 ,in ,london1 on the contrary1 no matter if a number of guests are expected1 lunch is an informal occasion1 and women dress for lunch as they would for an afternoon tea4 ,hats are worn and women are prepared to rush off afterwards to meet other engagements4 ,the ,english custom prevails now in the large cities in ,america1 and1 moreover1 women seem disinclined to remove their hats after they are once dressed for the round of the day's social obligations4 ,it is simpler and really quite conventional to leave the wearing of hats to the individual4 ,the hostess should ask her guest if she wishes to take her hat off or retain it1 and she can at the same time intimate to her guest1 if she is a stranger in the town1 what the others will probably do in this connection4 ,true hospitality on the part of the hostess is to make her guests at ease1 and true politeness on the part of the visitor is to conform to the rules governing the community that she is visiting4 ,,proper ,,apparel ,,for ,,men4 ,american gentlemen are no longer dependent on ,english tailors or on ,english fashions as they were some years ago4 ,the ,american type of physique is a distinct one1 and ,london tailors have never been able to fit ,american men as well as they do their own clients4 ,moreover social life is so different in the ,united ,states from what it is in ,england that men really need different clothes4 ,practically all ,american men are business men for the working hours of the day1 and few of them have any time or inclination for anything save business clothes while daylight lasts4 ,for dinner or for the evening what are generally called evening clothes are permissible1 and in fact obligatory in large cities for anything beyond the most informal home functions4 ,for the evening there is the informal and formal dress suit4 ,the former consists of the long-tailed coat worn with either a white or black waistcoat4 ,for a dancing party or formal dinner the white waistcoat is generally preferred1 and1 if it is worn1 it must be accompanied by a white lawn tie4 ,a made-up bow is considered incorrect4 ,the accompaniments to a suit of this sort are patent-leather shoes and white kid gloves if dancing is a part of the evening programme4 ,the informal evening suit includes the shorter dinner jacket or ,tuxedo1 as it was formerly called1 and1 strictly speaking1 this is only considered proper for the club or for parties where ladies are not expected to be present4 ,however1 men who commonly dress for dinner in the home circle generally prefer the dinner jacket to the long coat1 and well-dressed men are often seen wearing it at small dinner parties1 at the theater or at any informal evening event4 ,this coat is always worn with a black tie and waistcoat1 and it is not a suitable apparel for a dance or any large formal evening affair4 ,the correct dress for a daytime wedding is a black frock coat with light trousers1 light fancy waistcoat and gray gloves and gray ,ascot or four-in-hand tie1 and the frock coat with black waistcoat proper for church or when making afternoon calls4 ,many young men are adopting for afternoon wear the ,english morning suit1 which consists of a cutaway coat with trousers and waistcoat to match and made of some other color save black4 ,,wedding ,,anniversaries4 ,first ,anniversary ,cotton ,wedding ,second ,anniversary ,paper ,wedding ,third ,anniversary ,leather ,wedding ,fifth ,anniversary

discordant4 ,the reasons for this are based on natural laws and are explained in a very simple manner in a learned article by ,dr4 ,w4 ,k4 ,carr which originally appeared in ,shop ,notes ,quarterly4 ,impressions continue upon the retina of the eye1 says ,dr4 ,carr1 about one-sixth of a second after the object has been moved4 ,for this reason a point of light or flame whirled swiftly around appears as a continuous ring4 ,or take a piece or red ribbon1 place it on white paper1 look intently at it for thirty seconds and suddenly remove the ribbon4 ,the portion of the paper which was covered by the ribbon will then appear green4 ,the explanation is that the color sensation in the eye is caused by the almost unthinkably rapid whirling of electrons around their atoms1 and that the retina1 becoming fatigued by the vibration of the red1 is therefore less sensitive to them4 ,when the ribbon is suddenly removed1 the eye sees1 not the blue1 yellow and red which produce the white surface of the paper1 but1 because of the fatigue of the eye to the red1 it sees only the blue and yellow constituents of the white light4 ,but blue and yellow produce green2 hence the tendency at the eye to see the complementary of a color4 ,this may be referred to as the successive contrast of colors4 ,colors for ,blondes and for ,brunettes4 ,now1 for a practical application of this knowledge4 ,the hair of the blond is a mixture of red1 yellow and brown4 ,as a rule the skin is lighter1 that is1 it contains not so much orange1 and the tinges of red are lighter4 ,nature1 therefore1 very properly made the blond's eyes blue1 since the blue is complementary to the orange of her hair4 ,the brunette's skin1 on the other hand1 has more orange in it1 and hence a color favorable to one would not be becoming to the other4 ,what would be the effect of green upon a complexion deficient in red8 ,it would certainly heighten the rose tints in the cheeks1 but the greatest care should be exercised in the selection of the proper shade of green1 because the brunette's complexion contains a great deal of orange1 and the green1 acting upon the red of the orange1 could readily produce a brick-dust appearance4 ,green1 therefore1 is a risky color for a brunette1 and so is violet1 which would neutralize the yellow of the orange and heighten the red4 ,but if the orange complexion had more yellow than red1 then the association of violet would produce pallor4 ,yellow1 of course1 is her color1 since its complementary violet neutralizes the yellow of the orange complexion and leaves the red4 ,but with the yellow-haired blond the conditions are very different4 ,the complementary of blue is orange1 which improves the hair and freshens the light flesh tints4 ,a blond1 therefore can wear blue1 just as a brunette can wear yellow4 ,in arranging flowers the same law holds4 ,complementary colors should be placed side by side2 blue with orange1 yellow with violet1 red and rose with green leaves4 ,and anyone who successfully selects his wall paper and house furnishings is drawing unconsciously1 perhaps1 on an intuitive knowledge of these fundamental facts4 ,dark papers are bad1 especially in rooms with a northern exposure1 because they absorb too much light4 ,the complementaries of red and violet are exceedingly trying to most complexions1 and orange and orange-yellow are fatiguing to the eye4 ,the most pleasing effects are to be had with yellow1 light blue and light green1 for the latter freshens the red in pale skins1 and the blue heightens blond complexions1 and goes well with gilding and with mahogany and cherry furniture4 ,,color ,,contrast ,,and ,,harmony4 ,the following tables will be found useful in selecting colors for dress1 decoration1 or any other purpose in which the proper application of the true laws of contrast and harmony in color is desirable3 ,contrasts in ,color4 ,yellow contrasts with-- ,purple1 russet1 and auburn4 ,red contrasts

commences externally1 appearing upon the enamel or bony structure of the teeth4 ,usually it is the result of chemical action produced by decomposition of food4 ,acids found in some fruits will cause decay if allowed to remain in contact with the teeth4 ,then there are the natural mouth acids1 which1 although not strong1 are none the less effective if allowed to remain long enough around the teeth4 ,microscopical examinations have shown that the secretions of almost every person's month contain more or less vegetable and animal life that will withstand the application of acids and astringents and will only succumb to alkalies4 ,a dentifrice or mouth wash should be alkaline4 ,toothache4 ,toothache is not always due to an exposed nerve1 for in the majority of teeth extracted because they are painful the nerve is dead4 ,inflammation is often the cause of the trouble4 ,a toothache due to inflammation is a steady1 aggravating pain1 overspreading the affected side of the face1 sometimes even the neck and shoulder4 ,as there is no nerve to kill in a case of this kind1 the tooth should be treated until cured1 or removed upon the first symptom of trouble4 ,its extraction would be unattended by any danger and would afford welcome relief4 ,tartar1 a creamy1 calcareous deposit1 supposed to be from the saliva1 will sometimes cause toothache4 ,it accumulates around the necks of the teeth and eventually becomes hard and dark-colored4 ,it also causes foul breath and loosens the gums from the teeth1 causing them to present an unsightly appearance4 ,the ,teeth of ,children4 ,children have twenty temporary teeth1 which begin making their appearance about the sixth or seventh month4 ,the time varies in different children4 ,this is the most dangerous and troublesome period of the child's existence1 and every parent will do well to consult a reputable dentist4 ,about the second or third year the temporary teeth are fully developed4 ,they require the same care to preserve them as is exercised toward the permanent set4 ,about the sixth year1 or soon after1 four permanent molars1 or double teeth1 make their appearance4 ,some parents mistakenly suppose these belong to the first set4 ,it is a serious error4 ,they are permanent teeth1 and if lost will be lost forever4 ,no teeth that come after the sixth year are ever shed4 ,let every parent remember this4 ,at twelve years the second set is usually complete1 with the exception of the wisdom teeth1 which appear anywhere from the eighteenth to the twenty-fourth year4 ,when the second set is coming in the beauty and character of the child's countenance is completed or forever spoiled4 ,everything depends upon proper care at this time to see that the teeth come with regularity and are not crowded together4 ,the teeth cannot have too much room4 ,when a little separated they are less liable to decay4 ,dentifrices--,useful and ,injurious4 ,the habit of caring for the teeth daily1 and if possible after each meal1 should be established early in life4 ,those who have neglected to do so should lose no time in consulting a reputable dentist1 and then persistently caring for their teeth day by day4 ,children especially should be taught to use the tooth-brush and some reliable dentifrice4 ,the more pleasant the preparation the easier it will be to teach them its daily use4 ,a fragrant1 refreshing liquid is recommended1 as it is a mouth wash as well as a tooth cleanser4 ,the habit thus formed1 neglected for even a single day1 will make the mouth feel decidedly uncomfortable4 ,cleansing the ,teeth4 ,preparations for cleansing the teeth and purifying the mouth should be free from all acids1 and should be saponaceous or soapy1 containing as one of the principal ingredients an alkali to neutralize the acids and destroy the animal and vegetable parasites which1 as the microscope would show us1 are in the secretions of almost every person's mouth4 ,a finely triturated powder having slight abrasive properties1 but free from dangerous grit1 should be used as the complement of a liquid4 ,one way to use both is to pour on the wet brush or into the palm of the hand a sufficient quantity of powder and moisten it with the liquid4 ,occasionally the powder or the liquid alone could be employed4 ,be careful to use a liquid and powder of established reputation4 ,beware of thy teeth4 ,take good care of thy teeth1 ,and they will take good care of thee4 ,,the ,,perfect ,,female ,,figure4 ,according to the ,chicago ,tribune1 ,miss ,helen ,loewe1 a

complexions1 arrives at the following conclusions4 ,there are1 of course1 exceptions to all rules3 ,as a general rule1 the blonds are inconstant4 ,they change their minds too often4 ,they get angry one moment and forgive the next4 ,they are impulsive1 and when they do commit crimes they are done on the impulse of the moment4 ,a blond radiates his personality about him4 ,the brunette1 on the other hand as a rule1 likes to concentrate on one subject4 ,he is a specialist4 ,he prefers his home and family1 and his pleasures are more often lectures and kindred entertainments than those of a lighter order4 ,he learns slowly1 but he retains what he knows far better than does the blond4 ,,how ,,the ,,baby',s ,,mind ,,develops4 ,in his book on ,the ,development of the ,intellect1 ,mr4 ,h4 ,w4 ,brown presents a conspectus of the observations of ,prof4 ,preyer on the mind of the child which shows chronologically the gradual development of the senses1 intellect and will of the growing child and presents in a condensed form the result of a great number of careful observations4 ,it is recorded that sensibility to light1 touch1 temperature1 smell and taste are present on the first day of infant life4 ,hearing1 therefore1 is the only special sense which is not active at this time4 ,the child hears by the third or fourth day4 ,taste and smell are senses at the first most active1 but they are differentiated4 ,general organic sensations of well being or discomfiture are felt from the first1 but pain and pleasure as mental states are not noted till at or near the second month4 ,the first sign of speech in the shape of utterance of consonant sounds is heard about the end of the second month1 these consonants being generally m1 r1 g1 or t4 ,all the movements of the eyes become co-ordinate by the fourth month1 and by this time the child begins to have the feeling of self1 that is1 he looks at his own hands and looks at himself in the mirror4 ,the study of the child's mind during the first year shows conclusively that ideas develop and reasoning processes occur before there is any knowledge of words or of language2 though it may be assumed that the child thinks in symbols1 visual or auditory1 which are clumsy equivalents for words4 ,by the end of the year the child begins to express itself by sounds--that is1 speech begins4 ,the development of this speech capacity is1 according to ,preyer1 in accordance with the development of the intellectual powers4 ,by the end of the second year the child's power of speech is practically acquired4 ,,the ,,wonderful ,,human ,,brain4 ,according to the novel computations of a renowned histologist1 who has been calculating the aggregate cell forces of the human brain1 the cerebral mass is composed of at least #cjj1jjj1jjj of nerve cells1 each an independent body1 organism1 and microscopic brain so far as concerns its vital functions1 but subordinate to a higher purpose in relation to the functions of the organ2 each living a separate life individually1 though socially subject to a higher law of function4 ,the lifetime of a nerve cell he estimates to be about sixty days1 so that #e1jjj1jjj die every day1 about #bjj1jjj every hour1 and nearly #c1ejj every minute1 to be succeeded by an equal number of their progeny2 while once in every sixty days a man has a new brain4 ,,mourning ,,colors ,,the

first formulated by ,mr4 ,henry ,george in #ahgi1 and has grown steadily in favor4 ,single-tax men assert as a fundamental principle that all men are equally entitled to the use of the earth2 therefore1 no one should be allowed to hold valuable land without paying to the community the value of the privilege4 ,they hold that this is the only rightful source of public revenue1 and they would therefore abolish all taxation--local1 state and national--except a tax upon the rental value of land exclusive of its improvements1 the revenue thus raised to be divided among local1 state and general governments1 as the revenue from certain direct taxes is now divided between local and state governments4 ,the single tax would not fall on all land1 but only on valuable land1 and on that in proportion to its value4 ,it would thus be a tax1 not on use or improvements1 but on ownership of land1 taking what would otherwise go to the landlord as owner4 ,in accordance with the principle that all men are equally entitled to the use of the earth1 they would solve the transportation problem by public ownership and control of all highways1 including the roadbeds of railroads1 leaving their use equally free to all4 ,the single-tax system would1 they claim1 dispense with a horde of tax-gatherers1 simplify government1 and greatly reduce its cost2 give us with all the world that absolute free trade which now exists between the ,states of the ,union3 abolish all taxes on private issues of money2 take the weight of taxation from agricultural districts1 where land has little or no value apart from improvements1 and put it upon valuable land1 such as city lots and mineral deposits4 ,it would call upon men to contribute for public expenses in proportion to the natural opportunities they monopolize1 and make it unprofitable for speculators to hold land unused or only partly used1 thus opening to labor unlimited fields of employment1 solving the labor problem and abolishing involuntary poverty4 ,,the ,,mysteries ,,of ,,hypnotism4 ,a ,compend of the ,general ,claims ,made by ,professional ,hypnotists4 ,animal magnetism is the nerve-force of all human and animal bodies1 and is common to every person in a greater or less degree4 ,it may be transmitted from one person to another4 ,the transmitting force is the concentrated effort of will-power1 which sends the magnetic current through the nerves of the operator to the different parts of the body of his subject4 ,it may be transmitted by and through the eyes1 as well as the finger tips1 and the application of the whole open hands1 to different regions of the body of the subject1 as well as to the mind4 ,the effect of this force upon the subject will depend very much upon the health1 mental capacity and general character of the operator4 ,its action in general should be soothing and quieting upon the nervous system2 stimulating to the circulation of the blood1 the brain and other vital organs of the body of the subject4 ,it is the use and application of this power or force that constitutes hypnotism4 ,magnetism is a quality that inheres in every human being1 and it may be cultivated like any other physical or mental force of which men and women are constituted4 ,from the intelligent operator using it to overcome disease1 a patient experiences a soothing influence that causes a relaxation of the muscles1 followed by a pleasant1 drowsy feeling which soon terminates in refreshing sleep4 ,on waking1 the patient feels rested2 all his troubles have vanished from consciousness and he is as if he had a new lease of life4 ,in the true hypnotic condition1 when a patient voluntarily submits to the operator1 any attempt to make suggestions against the interests of the patient can invariably be frustrated by the patient4 ,self-preservation is the first law of nature1 and some of the best known operators who have recorded their experiments assert that suggestions not in accord with the best interest of the patient could not be carried out4 ,no one was ever induced to commit any crime under hypnosis1 that could not have been induced to do the same thing much easier without hypnosis4 ,the hypnotic state is a condition of mind that extends from a comparatively wakeful state1 with slight drowsiness1 to complete somnambulism1 no two subjects1 as a rule1 ever presenting the same characteristics4 ,the operator1 to be successful1 must have control of his own mind1 be in perfect health and have the ability to keep his mind concentrated upon the object he desires to accomplish with his subject4 ,,how ,,to ,,care ,,for ,a ,,piano4 ,by ,william ,h4 ,damon ,the most important thing in the preservation of a piano is to avoid atmospheric changes and extremes and sudden changes of temperature4 ,where the summer condition of the atmosphere is damp all precautions possible should be taken to avoid an entirely dry condition in winter1 such as that given by steam or furnace heat4 ,in all cases should the air in the home contain moisture enough to permit a heavy frost on the windows in zero weather4 ,the absence of frost under such conditions is positive proof of an entirely dry atmosphere1 and this is a piano's most dangerous enemy1 causing the sounding board to crack1 shrinking up the bridges1 and consequently putting the piano seriously out of tune1 also causing an undue dryness in all the action parts and often a loosening of the glue joints1 thus producing clicks and rattles4 ,to obviate this difficulty is by no means an easy task and will require considerable attention4 ,permit all the fresh air possible during winter1 being careful to keep the piano out of cold drafts1 as this will cause a sudden contraction of the varnish and cause it to check or crack4 ,plants in the room are desirable and vessels of water of any kind will be of assistance4 ,the most potent means of avoiding extreme dryness is to place a single-loaf bread-pan half full of water in the lower part of the piano1 taking out the lower panel and placing it on either side of the pedals inside4 ,this should be refilled about once a month during artificial heat1 care being taken to remove the vessel as soon as the heat is discontinued in the spring4 ,in cases where stove heat is used these precautions are not necessary4 ,the action of a piano1 like any other delicate piece of machinery1 should be carefully examined1 and1 if necessary1 adjusted each time it is tuned4 ,the hammers need occasional and careful attention to preserve original tone quality and elasticity4 ,never allow the piano to be beaten or played hard upon4 ,this is ruinous to both the action and tuning4 ,when not in use the music rack and top should be closed to exclude dust4 ,the keyboard need never be closed1 as the ivory needs both light and ventilation and will eventually turn yellow unless left open4 ,the case demands careful treatment to preserve its beauty and polish1 ,never use anything other than a soft piece of cotton cloth or cheese cloth to dust it with4 ,never wipe it with a dry chamois skin or silk cloth4 ,silk is not as soft as cotton and will scratch4 ,a dry chamois skin picks up the dust and grit and gradually scours off the fine finish4 ,in dusting never use a feather duster1 nor rub the piano hard with anything4 ,the dust should be whipped off1 and not rubbed into the varnish4 ,if the piano is dingy1 smoky or dirty looking1 it should be washed carefully with lukewarm water with a little ammonia in it to soften it4 ,never use soap4 ,use nothing but a small1 soft sponge and a chamois skin4 ,wipe over a small part at a time with the sponge1 following quickly with the wet chamois skin wrung out of the same water4 ,this will dry it immediately and leave it as beautiful and clean as new4 ,never use patent polishes4 ,if your piano needs polishing employ a competent polisher to give it a hand-rubbing friction polish4 ,the highest mountain on

the daughter of ,governor ,stubbs1 of ,kansas1 and by him communicated to ,theodore ,roosevelt1 is as follows1 according to the ,saturday ,evening ,post3 ,on the night before you contemplate this masterpiece of baking take half a cupful of corn meal and a pinch each of salt and sugar4 ,scald this with new milk heated to the boiling point and mix to the thickness of mush4 ,this can be made in a cup4 ,wrap in a clean cloth and put in a warm place overnight4 ,in the morning1 when all is ready1 take a one-gallon stone jar and into this put one scant cupful of new milk4 ,add a level teaspoonful of salt and one of sugar4 ,scald this with three cupfuls of water heated to the boiling point4 ,reduce to a temperature of one hundred and eight degrees with cold water1 using a milk thermometer to enable you to get exactly the right temperature4 ,then add flour and mix to a good batter2 after the batter is made1 mix in your starter that was made the night before4 ,cover the stone jar with a plate and put the jar in a large kettle of water and keep this water at a temperature of one hundred and eight degrees until the sponge rises4 ,it should rise at least an inch and a half4 ,when it has raised mix to a stiff dough1 make into loaves and put into pans4 ,do not let the heat get out of the dough while working4 ,grease the loaves well on top and set your bread where it will be warm and rise4 ,after the loaves rise bake in a medium oven for one hour and ten minutes4 ,when you take the loaves from the oven wrap them in a bread-cloth4 ,a ,,cure ,,for ,,love4 ,take twelve ounces of dislike1 one pound of resolution1 two grains of common sense1 two ounces of experience1 a large sprig of time1 and three quarts of cooling water of consideration4 ,set them over a gentle fire of love1 sweeten it with sugar of forgetfulness1 skim it with the spoon of melancholy1 put it in the bottom of your heart1 cork it with the cork of clean conscience4 ,let it remain and you will quickly find ease and be restored to your senses again4 ,these things can be had of the apothecary at the house of ,understanding next door to ,reason1 on ,prudent street4 ,,doing ,,business ,,with ,a ,,bank ,in opening your account with a bank it is proper that you should first be introduced to the cashier1 or some other official4 ,if you are engaged in business1 that officer will inquire as to your particular business or calling1 your address1 etc41 and unless he is already satisfied on this point1 he may make inquiries as to your business standing4 ,this being satisfactory1 he will hand you a passbook1 and some deposit tickets1 whereupon you make your first deposit1 entering the amount on the ticket4 ,you will then be asked to write your signature in a book provided for that purpose1 or upon a card to be filed away for reference4 ,the ,signature4 ,this signature should be just as you intend to use it in all your dealings with the bank4 ,if1 for instance1 your name is ,john ,henry ,smith1 you may write it ,j4 ,h4 ,smith1 ,j4 ,henry ,smith4 ,john ,h4 ,smith or ,john ,henry ,smith1 but whatever form you adopt should be used all the time4 ,once having adopted the form1 it should be maintained in exactly that way4 ,the only excuse for variation from your usual signature is when presenting checks or other paper made payable to you4 ,in that case1 supposing you had adopted the form ,j4 ,henry ,smith for your regular signature1 and the check is made payable to ,john ,h4 ,smith1 you should first write on the back of that check ,john ,h4 ,smith1 and immediately under this you should place your regular signature4 ,depositing ,money4 ,when making a deposit1 always use the deposit ticket provided by the bank1 filling it out yourself in ink4 ,from this ticket1 which is first checked up by the receiving teller1 the amount of your deposit is placed to your credit4 ,do not ask the teller to fill our your deposit ticket4 ,no doubt he would be glad to accommodate you1 but to do so would violate a rule which protects both the bank and the depositor1 ,deposit tickets are preserved by the bank1 and often serve to correct mistakes4 ,how to ,avoid ,mistakes4 ,consider for a moment the vast aggregate of bank transactions1 and you will see that perfect system on the part of the banks and bank officials is required to insure accuracy and avoid mistakes4 ,sometimes the requirements of the banks may seem arbitrary and troublesome1 but reflection will show that they safeguard the depositor as well as the bank4 ,the simple rules here laid down will enable anyone who has business with a bank to do so with the least trouble and with absolute safety4 ,how to ,make ,out a ,check4 ,checks are the most satisfactory and most convenient method of paying a debt or making any ordinary remittance4 ,the stub of your check book will furnish a permanent memorandum1 and when the check is canceled and returned to you by the bank1 it is an indisputable evidence that the debt has been paid1 or that the remittance has been made4 ,the making of a check is a simple matter1 but even the best business men make mistakes sometimes which are as difficult to remedy as they are easy to avoid4 ,the hints here given and the facsimiles of checks printed in illustration will repay careful study4 ,illustration3 ,a ,check ,properly ,drawn4 ,the name and amount are against the left side of their fields4 ,the first facsimile shows a check properly made4 ,it will be seen1 in the first place1 that this check is written very plainly1 and that there is no room for the insertion of extra figures or words4 ,the writing of the amount commences as nearly as possible to the extreme left of the check4 ,the figures are written close together and there is no space between the first figure and the dollar mark4 ,all erasures in checks should be avoided4 ,if you have made a mistake1 tear a blank check from the back of your check book and use that in place of the one spoiled4 ,some business men allow their clerks to fill out checks on the typewriter4 ,this is ill-advised for two reasons3 ,first1 it is much easier to alter a typewritten check than one filled in with a pen2 in the second place1 a teller1 in passing on the genuineness of a check1 takes into consideration the character of the handwriting in the body of the check as well as in the signature4 ,the typewritten characters offer no clue to individuality4 ,never mail a check drawn to ,bearer4 ,remember that if your check is made payable to ,bearer or to ,john ,smith or ,bearer it may be cashed by anybody who happens to have it4 ,unless it is for a large amount the paying teller of your bank will look only to see whether your signature is correct1 and1 that being right1 the bank cannot be held responsible if the check should have come into the wrong hands4 ,a check drawn to order can be cashed only when the person to whose order it has been drawn has indorsed it by writing his or her name on the back and the bank will be responsible for the correctness of the indorsement4 ,if you make your check payable say1 to ,william ,armstrong or order1 nobody but ,william ,armstrong1 or some one to whom he indorses the check1 can collect the amount1 and if through fraud or otherwise some one not entitled to it gets the money which the check calls for1 the responsibility is not yours1 but the bank's4 ,it is for that reason that bankers and business men use such great care in accepting checks4 ,illustration3 ,a ,check ,carelessly ,drawn4 ,the text and numbers for the amount is in the center of their fields1 leaving of space for extra text4 ,illustration3 ,the ,same ,check ,raised4 ,the amount has been changed from ,one ,hundred_/#ajj4jj to ,eighty-,one ,hundred_/#hajj4jj4 ,for the same reason you should never accept a check from anybody whom you do not know as responsible1 and you should not be surprised or angered if some one else should hesitate to take a check from you4 ,checks or drafts received by you should be deposited as soon as possible4 ,should you receive a check for a considerable amount and have no convenient bank account1 you should go to the bank on which the check is drawn and have the cashier certify it by stamping ,accepted or ,certified across the face over his signature4 ,that formality makes the paper as good as money so long as the bank accepting it is solvent4 ,it sometimes happens that a check drawn in good faith by a responsible party is withheld so long by the person receiving it that there is no money to the account when the check is finally presented4 ,paying ,notes and ,acceptances4 ,make your notes and accepted drafts payable at the bank where you do business4 ,whether it or other banks hold them for collection1 they will be presented to your bank when due4 ,pay your notes1 etc41 on the day they fall due1 and early in the day if convenient1 or leave a check for the amount with your bank on the day before your paper matures4 ,banks will not pay notes or drafts without instructions4 ,keep a careful record of the days of maturity of all your paper4 ,banks usually notify all payers a few days beforehand when their paper matures1 but this is only courtesy on their part and not an obligation4 ,exchange4 ,exchange means funds in other cities made available by bankers' drafts on such places4 ,these drafts afford the safest and cheapest means for remitting money4 ,drafts on ,new ,york are worth their face value practically all over the ,united ,states in settlement of accounts4 ,collections4 ,a draft is sometimes the most convenient form for collecting an account4 ,the prevalence of the custom is due to the fact that most men will wait to be asked to pay a debt4 ,if a draft is a time draft it is accepted by the person on whom it is drawn by writing his name and date across the face4 ,this makes it practically a note1 to be paid at maturity4 ,notes or drafts that you desire to have collected for you by your bank should be left at the bank several days before they are due1 so as to give ample time to notify the payers4 ,borrowing4 ,banks are always willing to loan their funds to responsible persons within reasonable limits4 ,that is what they exist for4 ,there is1 of course1 a limit to the amount a bank may loan1 even on the best known security1 but the customer of the bank is entitled to and will receive the first consideration4 ,the customer should not hesitate1 when occasion requires1 to offer to the bank for discount such paper as may come into his hands in the course of business1 if1 in his opinion1 the paper is good4 ,at the same time he should not be offended if his bank refuses to take it even without giving reasons4 ,indorsing ,checks1 ,etc4 ,when depositing checks1 drafts1 etc41 see that they are dated properly and that the written amounts and figures correspond4 ,the proper way to indorse a check or draft--this also applies to notes and other negotiable paper--is to write your name upon the back about one inch from the top4 ,the proper end may be determined in this way3 ,as you read the check1 holding one end in each hand1 draw the right hand toward you1 and turn the check over4 ,the end which is then farthest from you is the top4 ,if1 however1 the check1 draft or note has already been indorsed by another person1 you should write your name directly under the other indorsement1 even if that is on the wrong end4 ,if your own name on the face of the check1 draft or note is misspelled1 or has the wrong initials1 but if the paper is clearly intended for you1 you should first write your name as it appears on the face1 and under it your regular signature4 ,you should indorse every check you deposit1 even though it be payable to bearer4 ,mistakes in ,banking4 ,mr4 ,samuel ,woods1 a member of the ,american ,institute of ,bank ,clerks1 recently contributed to ,munsey's ,magazine an interesting article on the subject of ,mistakes in ,banking4 ,from this we are permitted by the courtesy of the publishers of ,munsey's to reproduce two of the facsimiles shown4 ,one wrong word1 or figure1 or letter--the right thing in the wrong way or the wrong place--the scratch of an eraser or the alteration of a word--or any one of these things1 in the making or cashing of a check1 is liable to become as expensive as a racing automobile4 ,the paying teller of a bank1 says ,mr4 ,woods1 must keep his eyes open for new dangers as well as old ones4 ,the cleverest crooks in the country are pitting their brains against his4 ,after he has learned the proper guard for all the well-known tricks and forgeries it is still possible that an entirely new combination may leave him minus cash and plus experience4 ,but it is not the unique and novel swindle that is most dangerous1 either to a bank or an individual4 ,it is the simple1 ordinary mistake or the time-worn trick that makes continuous trouble4 ,apparently1 every new generation contains a number of dishonest people who lay the same traps1 and a number of careless people who fall into these traps in the same old way4 ,check-,raising ,made ,easy4 ,one of the first lessons1 for instance1 that a depositor should learn before he is qualified to own a check-book is to commence writing the amount as near as possible to the extreme left of the check4 ,those who forget this are often reminded of it in a costly way4 ,some one raises their checks by writing another figure in front of the proper amount4 ,five hundred might be raised to twenty-five hundred in this way1 even by an unskilled forger4 ,the highest court has recently decided that a bank cannot be held responsible1 when it pays a raised check1 if the maker of the check failed in the first place to write it out correctly4 ,the treasurer of the ,bath ,electric ,company1 of ,bath1 ,maine1 had written a check for one hundred dollars1 which was raised to eighty-one hundred dollars and cashed4 ,the court held that the company1 and not the bank1 should lose the eight thousand dollars1 because of the gross carelessness in drawing up the check4 ,facsimiles showing the check as originally written and as it looked when paid are here reproduced4 ,altered ,words and ,figures4 ,the altered check is the bane of the paying teller's profession1 and it is the general practice in conservative banks to accept no checks or other paper which shows signs of erasure or alteration in either words or figures4 ,,the ,,names ,,of ,,the ,,states4 ,alabama--,indian2 meaning ,here we rest4 ,arkansas--,kansas1 the ,indian name for smoky

and ,federal ,city4 ,,theosophy4 ,much is said nowadays about theosophy1 which is really but another name for mysticism4 ,it is not a philosophy1 for it will have nothing to do with philosophical methods2 it might be called a religion1 though it has never had a following large enough to make a very strong impression on the world's religious history4 ,the name is from the ,greek word theosophia--divine wisdom--and the object of theosophical study is professedly to understand the nature of divine things4 ,it differs1 however1 from both philosophy and theology even when these have the same object of investigation4 ,for1 in seeking to learn the divine nature and attributes1 philosophy employs the methods and principles of natural reasoning2 theology uses these1 adding to them certain principles derived from revelation4 ,theosophy1 on the other hand1 professes to exclude all reasoning processes as imperfect1 and to derive its knowledge from direct communication with ,god himself4 ,it does not1 therefore1 accept the truths of recorded revelation as immutable1 but as subject to modification by later and personal revelations4 ,the theosophical idea has had followers from the earliest times4 ,since the ,christian era we may class among theosophists such sects as ,neo-,platonists1 the ,hesychasts of the ,greek ,church1 the ,mystics of mediaeval times1 and1 in later times1 the disciples of ,paracelsus1 ,thalhauser1 ,bohme1 ,swedenborg and others4 ,recently a small sect has arisen1 which has taken the name of ,theosophists4 ,its leader was an ,english gentleman who had become fascinated with the doctrine of ,buddhism4 ,taking a few of his followers to ,india1 they have been prosecuting their studies there1 certain individuals attracting considerable attention by a claim to miraculous powers4 ,it need hardly be said that the revelations they have claimed to receive have been1 thus far1 without element of benefit to the human race4 ,,the ,,evolution ,,theory4 ,the evolution or development theory declares the universe as it now exists to be the result of a long series of changes which were so far related to each other as to form a series of growths analogous to the evolving of the parts of a growing organism4 ,herbert ,spencer defines evolution as a progress from the homogeneous to the heterogeneous1 from general to special1 from the simple to the complex elements of life1 and it is believed that this process can be traced in the formation of worlds in space1 in the multiplication of types and species among animals and plants1 in the origin and changes of languages and literature and the arts1 and also in all the changes of human institutions and society4 ,asserting the general fact of progress in nature1 the evolution theory shows that the method of this progress has been 7#a7 by the multiplication of organs and functions2 7#b7 according to a defined unity of plan1 although with 7#c7 intervention of transitional forms1 and 7#d7 with modifications dependent upon surrounding conditions4 ,ancient writers occasionally seemed to have a glimmering knowledge of the fact of progress in nature1 but as a theory evolution belongs to the enlightenment of the nineteenth century4 ,leibnitz1 in the latter part of the seventeenth century first uttered the opinion that the earth was once in a fluid condition and ,kant about the middle of the eighteenth century1 definitely propounded the nebular hypothesis1 which was enlarged as a theory by the ,herschels4 ,the first writer to suggest the transmutation of species among animals was ,buffon1 about #agej1 and other writers followed out the idea4 ,the eccentric ,lord ,monboddo was the first to suggest the possible descent of man from the ape1 about #aggd4 ,in #ahac ,dr4 ,w4 ,c4 ,wells first proposed to apply the principle of natural selection to the natural history of man1 and in #ahbb ,professor ,herbert first asserted the probable transmutation of species of plants4 ,in #ahdd a book appeared called ,vestiges of ,creation1 which1 though evidently not written by a scientific student1 yet attracted great attention by its bold and ingenious theories4 ,the authorship of this book was never revealed until after the death of ,robert ,chambers1 a few years since1 it became known that this publisher1 whom no one would ever have suspected of holding such heterodox theories1 had actually written it4 ,but the two great apostles of the evolution theory were ,charles ,darwin and ,herbert ,spencer4 ,the latter began his great work1 the ,first ,principles of ,philosophy1 showing the application of evolution in the facts of life1 in #aheb4 ,in #ahei appeared ,darwin's ,origin of ,species4 ,the hypothesis of the latter was that different species originated in spontaneous variation1 and the survival of the fittest through natural selection and the struggle for existence4 ,this theory was further elaborated and applied by ,spencer1 ,darwin1 ,huxley1 and other writers in ,europe and ,america1 and though to-day by no means all the ideas upheld by these early advocates of the theory are still accepted1 evolution as a principle is now acknowledged by nearly all scientists4 ,it is taken to be an established fact in nature1 a valid induction from man's knowledge of natural order4 ,,the ,,english ,,sparrow4 ,the first ,english sparrow was brought to the ,united ,states in #ahej1 but it was not until #ahgj that the species can be said to have firmly established itself4 ,since then it has taken possession of the country4 ,its fecundity is amazing4 ,in the latitude of ,new ,york and southward it hatches1 as a rule1 five or six broods in a season1 with from four to six young in a brood4 ,assuming the average annual product of a pair to be twenty-four young1 of which half are females and half males1 and assuming further1 for the sake of computation1 that all live1 together with their offspring1 it will be seen that in ten years the progeny of a single pair would be #bge1gaf1ihc1fih4 ,,feminine ,,height ,,and ,,weight4 ,it is often asked how stout a woman ought to be in proportion to her height4 ,a very young girl may becomingly be thinner than a matron1 but the following table gives a fair indication of proper proportions3 ,height ,pounds ,height ,pounds ,five feet about #ajj ,five feet #g inches4 about #aej ,five feet #a inch about #ajf ,five feet #h inches4 about #aee ,five feet #b inches about #aac ,five feet #aj inches4 about #afc ,five feet #c inches about #aai ,five feet #aj inches4 about #afi ,five

,,of ,,age4 ,the question sometimes arises whether it man is entitled to vote at an election held on the day preceding the twenty-first anniversary of his birth4 ,blackstone1 in his ,commentaries1 book #a1 page #dfc1 says3 ,full age in male or female is #ba years1 which age is completed on the day preceding the anniversary of a person's birth1 who1 till that time1 is an infant1 and so styled in law4 ,the late ,chief ,justice ,sharswood1 in his edition of ,blackstone's ,commentaries1 quotes ,christian's note on the above as follows3 ,if he is born on the #afth day of ,february1 #afjh1 he is of age to do any legal act on the morning of the #aeth of ,february1 #afbi1 though he may not have lived twenty-one years by nearly forty-eight hours4 ,the reason assigned is that in law there is no fraction of a day2 and if the birth were on the last second of one day and the act on the first second of the preceding day twenty-one years after1 then twenty-one years would be complete1 and in the law it is the same whether a thing is done upon one moment of the day or another4 ,,dreams ,,and ,,their ,,meaning ,the ,bible speaks of dreams as being sometimes prophetic1 or suggestive of future events4 ,this belief has prevailed in all ages and countries1 and there are numerous modern examples1 apparently authenticated1 which would appear to favor this hypothesis4 ,the interpretation of dreams was a part of the business of the soothsayers at the royal courts of ,egypt1 ,babylon and other ancient nations4 ,dreams and visions have attracted the attention of mankind of every age and nation4 ,it has been claimed by all nations1 both enlightened and heathen1 that dreams are spiritual revelations to men2 so much so1 that their modes of worship have been founded upon the interpretation of dreams and visions4 ,why should we discard the interpretation of dreams while our mode of worship1 faith and knowledge of ,deity are founded upon the interpretation of the dreams and visions of the prophets and seers of old4 ,dreams vividly impressed upon the mind are sure to be followed by some event4 ,we read in the ,holy ,scripture the revelation of the ,deity to ,his chosen people1 through the prophet ,joel3 ,and it shall come to pass1 afterward1 that ,i will pour out ,my ,spirit on all flesh1 and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy1 your old men shall dream dreams1 your young men shall see visions1 and also upon the servants and the handmaids in those days will ,i pour out ,my ,spirit4 7,joel ii1 #bh47 ,both sacred and profane history contain so many examples of the fulfilment of dreams that he who has no faith in them must be very skeptical indeed4 ,hippocrates says that when the body is asleep the soul is awake1 and transports itself everywhere the body would be able to go2 knows and sees all that the body could see or know were it awake2 that it touches all that the body could touch4 ,in a word1 it performs all the actions that the body of a sleeping man could do were he awake4 ,a dream1 to have a significance1 must occur to the sleeper while in healthy and tranquil sleep4 ,those dreams of which we have not a vivid conception1 or clear remembrance1 have no significance4 ,those of which we have a clear remembrance must have formed in the mind in the latter part of the night1 for up to that time the faculties of the body have been employed in digesting the events of the day4 ,,dictionary ,,of ,,dreams4 7,note4--,if you do not find the word you want1 look for a word of identical or closely similar meaning47 ,a

objectionable errors in speaking or writing are those in which words are employed that are unsuitable to convey the meaning intended4 ,thus1 a person wishing to express his intention of going to a given place says1 ,i propose going1 when1 in fact1 he purposes going4 ,the following affords an amusing illustration of this class of error3 ,a venerable matron was speaking of her son1 who1 she said1 was quite stage-struck3 ,in fact1 remarked the old lady1 he is going to a premature performance this evening6 ,considering that most amateur performances are premature1 it cannot be said that this word was altogether misapplied1 though1 evidently1 the maternal intention was to convey quite another meaning4 ,other errors arise from the substitution of sounds similar to the words which should be employed2 that is1 spurious words instead of genuine ones4 ,thus1 some people say renumerative1 when they mean remunerative4 ,a nurse1 recommending her mistress to have a perambulator for her child1 advised her to purchase a preamputator6 ,other errors are occasioned by imperfect knowledge of ,english grammar2 thus1 many people say1 ,between you and ,i1 instead of ,between you and me4 ,and there are numerous other departures from the rules of grammar1 which will be pointed out hereafter4 ,misuse of the ,adjective--,what beautiful butter6 ,what a nice landscape6 ,they should say1 ,what a beautiful landscape6 ,what nice butter6 ,again1 errors are frequently occasioned by the following causes3 ,mispronunciation of ,words--,many persons say pronoun-ciation instead of pronunciation2 others say pro-nun-ce-a-shun1 instead of pro-nun-she-a-shun4 ,misdivision of ,words and ,syllables--,this defect makes the words an ambassador sound like a nambassador1 or an adder like a nadder4 ,imperfect ,enunciation--,as when a person says hebben for heaven1 ebber for ever1 jocholate for chocolate4 ,to correct these errors by a systematic course of study would involve a closer application than most persons could afford1 but the simple and concise rules and hints here given1 founded upon usage and the authority of scholars1 will be of great assistance to inquirers4 ,,english ,,grammar ,,in ,a ,,nutshell4 ,who and whom are used in relation to persons1 and which in relation to things4 ,but it was once common to say1 the man which4 ,this should now be avoided4 ,it is now usual to say1 ,our ,father who art in heaven1 instead of which art in heaven4 ,whose is1 however1 sometimes applied to things as well as to persons4 ,we may therefore say1 ,the country whose inhabitants are free4 ,thou is employed in solemn discourse1 and you in common language4 ,ye 7plural7 is also used in serious addresses1 and you in familiar language4 ,the uses of the word it are various1 and very perplexing to the uneducated4 ,it is not only used to imply persons1 but things1 and even ideas1 and therefore in speaking or writing1 its assistance is constantly required4 ,the perplexity respecting this word arises from the fact that in using it in the construction of a long sentence1 sufficient care is not taken to insure that when it is employed it really points out or refers to the object intended4 ,for instance1 ,it was raining when ,john set out in his cart to go to market1 and he was delayed so long that it was over before he arrived4 ,now what is to be understood by this sentence3 ,was the rain over8 or the market8 ,either or both might be inferred from the construction of the sentence1 which1 therefore1 should be written thus3 ,it was raining when ,john set out in his cart to go to market1 and he was delayed so long that the market was over before he arrived4 ,rule--,after writing a sentence always look through it1 and see that wherever the word it is employed1 it refers to or carries the mind back to the object which it is intended to point out4 ,the general distinction between this and that may be thus defined3 this denotes an object present or near1 in time or place2 that something which is absent4 ,these refers1 in the same manner1 to present objects1 while those refers to things that are remote4 ,who changes1 under certain conditions1 into whose and whom2 but that and which always remain the same1 with the exception of the possessive case1 as noted above4 ,that may be applied to nouns or subjects of all sorts2 as1 the girl that went to school1 the dog that bit me1 the opinion that he entertains4 ,the misuse of these pronouns gives rise to more errors in speaking and writing than any other cause4 ,when you wish to distinguish between two or more persons1 say3 ,which is the happy man8 not who--,which of those ladies to you admire8 ,instead of ,whom do you think him to be8 say1 ,who do you think him to be8 ,whom should ,i see4 ,to whom do you speak8 ,who said so8 ,who gave it to you8 ,of whom did you procure them8 ,who was he8 ,who do men say that ,i am8 ,self should never be added to his1 their1 mine or thine4 ,each is used to denote every individual of a number4 ,every denotes all the individuals of a number4 ,either and or denote an alternative3 ,i will take either road1 at your pleasure2 ,i will take this or that4 ,neither means not either1 and nor means not the other4 ,either is sometimes used for each--,two thieves were crucified1 on either side one4 ,let each esteem others as good as themselves1 should be1 ,let each esteem others as good as himself4 ,there are bodies each of which are so small1 should be1 each of which is so small4 ,do not use double superlatives1 such as most straightest1 most highest1 most finest4 ,the term worser has gone out of use2 but lesser is stilt retained4 ,the use of such words as chiefest1 extreamest1 etc41 has become obsolete1 because they do not give any superior force to the meanings of the primary words1 chief1 extreme1 etc4 ,such expressions as more impossible1 more indispensable1 more universal1 more uncontrollable1 more unlimited1 etc41 are objectionable1 as they really enfeeble the meaning which it is the object of the speaker or writer to strengthen4 ,for instance1 impossible gains no strength by rendering it more impossible4 ,this class of error is common with persons who say1 ,a great large house1 ,a great big animal1 ,a little small foot1 ,a tiny little hand4 ,here1 there and where1 originally denoting place1 may now1 by common consent1 be used to denote other meanings1 such as1 ,there ,i agree with you1 ,where we differ1 ,we find pain where we expected pleasure1 ,here you mistake me4 ,hence1 whence and thence1 denoting departure1 etc41 may be used without the word from4 ,the idea of from is included in the word whence--therefore it is unnecessary to say ,from whence4 ,hither1 thither and whither1 denoting to a place1 have generally been superseded by here1 there and where4 ,but there is no good reason why they should not be employed4 ,if1 however1 they are used1 it is unnecessary to add the word to1 because that is implied--,whither are you going8 ,where are you going8 ,each of these sentences is complete4 ,to say1 ,where are you going to8 is redundant4 ,two negatives destroy each other1 and produce an affirmative4 ,nor did he not observe them1 conveys the idea that he did observe them4 ,but negative assertions are allowable4 ,his manners are not impolite1 which implies that his manners are in some degree marked by politeness4 ,instead of ,let you and ,i4 say ,let you and me4 ,instead of ,i am not so tall as him1 say ,i am not so tall as he4 ,when asked ,who is there8 do not answer ,me1 but ,i1 ,instead of ,for you and ,i1 say ,for you and me4 ,instead of ,says ,i1 say ,i said4 ,instead of ,you are taller than me1 say ,you are taller than ,i4 ,instead of ,i ain't1 or ,i arn't1 say ,i am not4 ,instead of

savor of impiety all the other1 for--,thou shalt not take the name of the ,lord thy ,god in vain4 ,,accent ,,and ,,pronunciation4 ,accent is a particular stress or force of the voice upon certain syllables or words4 ,this mark in printing denotes the syllable upon which the stress or force of the voice should be placed4 ,a word may have more than one accent4 ,take as an instance aspiration4 ,in uttering the word we give a marked emphasis of the voice upon the first and third syllables1 and therefore those syllables are said to be accented4 ,the first of these accents is less distinguishable than the second1 upon which we dwell longer2 therefore the second accent in point of order is called the primary1 or chief accent of the word4 ,when the full accent falls on a vowel1 that vowel should have a long sound1 as in vo'cal2 but when it falls on or after a consonant1 the preceding vowel has a short sound1 as in hab'it4 ,to obtain a good knowledge of pronunciation it is advisable for the reader to listen to the examples given by good speakers1 and by educated persons4 ,we learn the pronunciation of words1 to a great extent1 by imitation1 just as birds acquire the notes of other birds which may be near them4 ,but it will be very important to bear in mind that there are many words having a double meaning or application1 and that the difference of meaning is indicated by the difference of the accent1 ,among these words1 nouns are distinguished from verbs by this means3 nouns are mostly accented on the first syllabic1 and verbs on the last4 ,noun signifies name2 nouns are the names of persons and things1 as well as of things not material and palpable1 but of which we have a conception and knowledge1 such as courage1 firmness1 goodness1 strength2 and verbs express actions1 movements1 etc4 ,if the word used signifies has been done1 or is being done1 or is1 or is to be done1 then that word is a verb4 ,thus when we say that anything is an in'sult1 that word is a noun1 and is accented all the first syllable2 but when we say he did it to insult' another person1 that word insult' implies acting1 and becomes a verb1 and should be accented on the last syllable4 ,simple ,rules of ,pronunciation4 ,c before a1 o and u1 and in some other situations1 is a close articulation1 like k4 ,before e1 i and y1 c is precisely equivalent to s in same1 this2 as in cedar1 civil1 cypress1 capacity4 ,e final indicates that the preceding vowel is long2 as in hate1 mete1 sire1 robe1 lyre1 abate1 recede1 invite1 remote1 intrude4 ,e final indicates that c preceding has the sound of s2 as in lace1 lance1 and that g preceding has the sound of j1 as in charge1 page1 challenge4 ,e final in proper ,english words never forms a syllable1 and in the most used words in the terminating unaccented syllables it is silent4 ,thus1 motive1 genuine1 examine1 granite1 are pronounced motiv1 genuin1 examin1 granit4 ,e final1 in a few words of foreign origin1 forms a syllable2 as syncope1 simile4 ,e final is silent after l in the following terminations3 ble1 cle1 dle1 fle1 gle1 kle1 ple1 tle1 zle2 as in able1 manacle1 cradle1 ruffle1 mangle1 wrinkle1 supple1 rattle1 puzzle1 which are pronounced a'bl1 mana'cl1 cra'dl1 ruf'fl1 man'gl1 wrin'kl1 sup'pl1 puz'zl4 ,e is usually silent in the termination en2 as in taken1 broken2 pronounced takn1 brokn4 ,,ous1 in the termination of adjectives and their derivatives1 is pronounced us2 as is gracious1 pious1 pompously4 ,,ce1 ,,ci1 ,,ti1 before a vowel1 have the sound of sh2 as in cetaceous1 gracious1 motion1 partial1 ingratiate2 pronounced cetashus1 grashus1 moshun1 parshal1 ingrashiate4 ,,si1 after an accented vowel1 is pronounced like zh2 as in ,ephesian1 coufusion2 pronounced ,ephezhan1 confushon4 ,,gh1 both in the middle and at the end of words is silent2 as in caught1 bought1 fright1 nigh1 sigh2 pronounced caut1 baut1 frite1 ni1 si4 ,in the following exceptions1 however1 gh is pronounced as f3 cough1 chough1 clough1 enough1 laugh1 rough1 slough1 tough1 trough4 ,when ,,wh begins a word1 the aspirate h precedes w in pronunciation3 as in what1 whiff1 whale2 pronounced hwat1 hwiff1 hwale1 w having precisely the sound of oo1 ,french ou4 ,in the following words w is silent3---who1 whom1 whose1 whoop1 whole4 ,h after r has no sound or use2 as in rheum1 rhyme2 pronounced reum1 ryme4 ,h should be sounded in the middle of words2 as in forehead1 abhor1 behold1 exhaust1 inhabit1 unhorse4 ,h should always be sounded except in the following words3--heir1 herb1 honest1 honor1 hour1 humor1 and humble1 and all their derivatives1--such as humorously1 derived from humor4 ,k and ,g are silent before n2 as know1 gnaw2 pronounced no1 naw4 ,w before r is silent2 as in wring1 wreath2 pronounced ring1 reath4 ,b after m is silent2 as in dumb1 numb2 pronounced dum1 num4 ,l before k is silent2 as in balk1 walk1 talk2 pronounced bauk1 wauk1 tauk4 ,,ph has the sound of f2 as in philosophy2 pronounced filosofy4 ,,ng has two sounds1 one as in singer1 the other as in fin-ger4 ,n after m1 and closing a syllable1 is silent2 as in hymn1 condemn4 ,p before s and t is mute2 as in psalm1 pseudo1 ptarmigan2 pronounced salm1 sudo1 tarmigan4 ,r has two sounds1 one strong and vibrating1 as at the beginning of words and syllables1 such as robber1 reckon1 error2 the other is at the termination of

coasts of ,florida and the ,west ,indies2 the higher grades are from the ,mediterranean ,sea1 and are numerous in variety4 ,a sponge in its natural state is a different-looking object from what we see in commerce1 resembling somewhat the appearance of the jelly fish1 or a mass of liver1 the entire surface being covered with a thin1 slimy skin1 usually of a dark color1 and perforated to correspond with the apertures of the canals commonly called holes of the sponge4 ,the sponge of commerce is1 in reality1 only the skeleton of a sponge4 ,the composition of this skeleton varies in the different kinds of sponges1 but in the commercial grades it consists of interwoven horny fibers1 among and supporting which are epiculae of silicious matter in greater or less numbers1 and having a variety of forms4 ,the fibers consist of a network of fibriles1 whose softness and elasticity determine the commercial quality of a given sponge4 ,the horny framework is perforated externally by very minute pores1 and by a less number of larger openings4 ,these are parts of an interesting double canal system1 an external and an internal1 or a centripetal and a centrifugal4 ,at the smaller openings on the sponge's surface channels begin1 which lead into dilated spaces4 ,in these1 in turn1 channels arise1 which eventually terminate in the large openings4 ,through these channels or canals definite currents are constantly maintained1 which are essential to the life of the sponge4 ,the currents enter through the small apertures and emerge through the large ones4 ,the active part of the sponge1 that is1 the part concerned in nutrition and growth1 is a soft1 fleshy mass1 partly filling the meshes and lining the canals4 ,it consists largely of cells having different functions2 some utilized in the formation of the framework1 some in digestion and others in reproduction4 ,lining the dilated spaces into which different canals lead are cells surmounted by whip-like processes4 ,the motion of these processes produces and maintains the water currents1 which carry the minute food products to the digestive cells in the same cavities4 ,sponges multiply by the union of sexual product4 ,certain cells of the fleshy pulp assume the character of ova1 and others that of spermatozoa4 ,fertilization takes place within the sponge4 ,the fertilized eggs1 which are called larvae1 pass out into the currents of the water1 and1 in the course of twenty-four to forty-eight hours1 they settle and become attached to rocks and other hard substances1 and in time develop into mature sponges4 ,the depth of the water in which sponges grow varies from #aj to #ej feet in ,florida1 but considerably more in the ,mediterranean ,sea1 the finer grades being found in the deepest water1 having a temperature of #ej to #eg degrees4 ,,don',t ,,be ,,buried ,,alive4 ,from time to time we are horrified by learning that some person has been buried alive1 after assurances have been given of death4 ,under these circumstances the opinion of a rising ,french physician upon the subject becomes of world-wide interest1 for since the tests which have been in use for years have been found unreliable no means should be left untried to prove beyond a doubt that life is actually extinct before conveying our loved ones to the grave4 ,dr4 ,martinot1 as reported in the ,new ,york ,journal1 asserts that an unfailing test may be made by producing a blister on the hand or foot of the body by holding the flame of a candle to the same for a few seconds1 or until the blister is formed which will always occur4 ,if the blister contains any fluid it is evidence of life1 and the blister only that produced by an ordinary burn4 ,if1 on the contrary1 the blister contains only steam1 it may be asserted that life is extinct4 ,the explanation is as follows3 ,a corpse1 says ,dr4 ,martinot1 is nothing more than inert matter1 under the immediate control of physical laws which cause all liquid heated to a certain temperature to become steam2 the epidermis is raised1 the blister produced2 it breaks with a little noise1 and the steam escapes4 ,but if1 in spite of all appearances1 there is any remnant of life1 the organic mechanism continues to be governed by physiological laws1 and the blister will contain serous matter1 as in the case of any ordinary burns4 ,the test is as simple as the proof is conclusive4 ,dry blister3 death4 ,liquid blister3 life4 ,any one may try it2 there is no error possible4 ,,how ,,to ,,serve ,,wine4 ,a fine dinner may be spoiled by not serving the proper wine at the proper time and at the proper temperature4 ,a white wine 7,sauterne1 ,riesling1 ,moselle1 etc47 should be used from the beginning of the meal to the time the roast or game comes on4 ,with the roast serve red wine1 either claret or ,burgundy4 ,use sparkling wines after the roast4 ,with dessert1 serve apricot cordial4 ,never serve red wine with soup or fish1 and never a white wine with game4 ,storage1 ,temperature1 ,etc4 ,store your wines in the cellar at #ej to #fj degrees4 ,all bottles should lie flat so that the cork is continually moist4 ,this rule should be specially observed with sparkling wines4 ,sparkling wine should be served ice cold4 ,put the wine on the ice--not ice in the wine4 ,serve red wine at only about #e degrees cooler than the dining-room4 ,white wine should be about #ae degrees cooler than the temperature of the room4 ,,the ,,steps ,,in ,,the ,,growth ,,of ,,american ,,liberty4 ,,magna ,,charta4 ,about seven hundred years ago there was organized a movement which resulted in the great charter of ,english liberty--a movement which foreshadowed the battle of our ,american forefathers for political independence4 ,on the #beth of ,august1 #abac1 the prelates and ,barons1 tiring of the tyranny and vacillation of ,king ,john1 formed a council and passed measures to secure their rights4 ,after two years of contest1 with many vicissitudes1 the ,barons entered ,london and the ,king fled into ,hampshire4 ,by agreement both parties met at ,runnymede on the #ith of ,june1 #abae1 and after several days' debate1 on ,june #ae1 ,magna ,charta 7the ,great ,charter71 the glory of ,england1 was signed and sealed by the sovereign4 ,the ,magna ,charta is a comprehensive bill of rights1 and1 though crude in form1 and with many clauses of merely local value1 its spirit still lives and will live4 ,clear and prominent we find the motto1 ,no tax without representation4 ,the original document is in ,latin and contains sixty-one articles1 of which the #cith and #djth1 embodying the very marrow of our own ,state constitutions1 are here given as translated in the ,english statutes3 #ci4 ,no freeman shall be taken or imprisoned or be disseised of his freehold1 or liberties or free customs1 or be otherwise destroped damaged1 nor will be press upon him nor seize upon him condemn him but by lawful judgment of his peers or by the law of the land4 #dj4 ,we will sell to no man1 we will not deny or defer to any man1 either right or justice4 ,the ,great ,charter recognizes a popular tribunal as a check on the official judges and may be looked upon as the foundation of the writ of ,habeas ,corpus4 ,it provides that no one is to be condemned on rumor or suspicion1 but only on the evidence of witnesses4 ,it affords protection against excessive emercements1 illegal distresses and various processes for debts and service due to the crown4 ,fines are in all cases to be proportionate to the magnitude of the offense1 and even the villein or rustic is not to be deprived of his necessary chattels4 ,there are provisions regarding the forfeiture of land for felony4 ,the testamentary power of the subject is recognized over part of his personal estate1 and the rest to be divided between his widow and children4 ,the independence of the church is also provided for4 ,these are the most important features of the ,great ,charter1 which1 exacted by men with arms in their hands from a resisting king1 occupies so conspicuous a place in history1 which establishes the supremacy of the law of ,england over the will of the monarch1 and which still forms the basis of ,english liberties4 ,,the ,,mecklenburg ,,declaration ,more than a year before the signing of the ,declaration of ,independence a document was drawn up that was almost a model in phraseology and sentiment of the great charter of ,american freedom4 ,there are various accounts of this matter1 but the most trustworthy is this3 ,at a public meeting of the residents of ,mecklenburg ,county1 ,north ,carolina1 held at ,charlotte on the #bjth of ,may1 #agge1 it was ,resolved1 ,that whenever directly or indirectly abetted1 or in any way1 form or manner countenanced1 the unchartered and dangerous invasion of our rights1 as claimed by ,great ,britain1 is an enemy to our country--to ,america--and to the inherent and inalienable rights of man4 ,resolved1 ,that we1 the citizens of ,mecklenburg ,county1 do hereby dissolve the political bonds which have connected us to the mother country1 and hereby absolve ourselves from all allegiance to the ,british crown1 and abjure all political connection1 contract or association with that nation1 which has wantonly trampled on our rights and liberties1 and inhumanly shed the blood of ,american patriots at ,lexington4 ,resolved1 ,that we do hereby declare ourselves a free and independent people2 are and of right ought to be a sovereign and self-governing association1 under the control of no power other than that of our ,god and the general government of the ,congress4 ,to the maintenance of which independence we solemnly pledge to each other our mutual cooperation1 our lives1 our fortunes1 and our sacred honor4 ,there are two other resolutions1 concerning the militia and the administration of the law1 but these1 having no present value1 are here omitted4 ,,the ,,declaration ,,of ,,independence4 ,in ,congress1 ,july #d1 #aggf4 ,when1 in the course of human events1 it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bonds which have connected them with another1 and to assume1 among the powers of the earth1 the separate and equal station to which the laws of ,nature and ,nature's ,god entitle them1 a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation4 ,we hold these truths to be self-evident3 that all men are created equal2 that they are endowed by their ,creator with certain inalienable rights2 that among these are life1 liberty1 and the pursuit of happiness4 ,that to secure these rights1 governments are instituted among men1 deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed2 that whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends1 it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it1 and to institute a new government1 laying its foundation on such principles1 and organizing its powers in such form as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness4 ,prudence1 indeed1 will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes2 and accordingly all experience has shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer1 while evils are sufferable1 than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed4 ,but when a long train of abuses and usurpations1 pursuing invariably the same object1 evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism1 it is their right1 it is their duty1 to throw off such government1 and to provide new guards for their future security4 ,such has been the patient sufferance of these colonies1 and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former systems of government4 ,the history of the present ,king of ,great ,britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations1 all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these ,states4 ,to prove this1 let facts be submitted to a candid world4 ,he has refused his assent to laws the most wholesome and necessary for the public good4 ,he has forbidden his governors to pass laws of immediate and pressing importance1 unless suspended in their operation till his assent should be obtained2 and when so suspended1 he has utterly neglected to attend to them4 ,he has refused to pass other laws for the accommodation of large districts of people1 unless those people would relinquish the right of representation in the legislature--a right inestimable to them1 formidable to tyrants only4 ,he has called together legislative bodies at places unusual1 uncomfortable1 and distant from the depository of their public records1 for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures4 ,he has dissolved representative houses repeatedly1 for opposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights of the people4 ,he has refused1 for a long time after such dissolutions1 to cause others to be elected2 whereby the legislative powers1 incapable of annihilation1 have returned to the people at large1 for their exercise1 the state remaining1 in the meantime1 exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without1 and convulsions within4 ,he has endeavored to prevent the population of these ,states2 for that purpose obstructing the laws for naturalization of foreigners1 refusing to pass others to encourage their migration hither1 and raising conditions of new appropriation of lands4 ,he has obstructed the administration of justice1 by refusing his assent to laws establishing judiciary powers4 ,he has made judges dependent on his will alone for the tenure of their offices and the amount and payment of their salaries4 ,he has erected a multitude of new offices1 and sent hither swarms of officers1 to harass our people1 and to eat out their substance4 ,he has kept among us1 in times of peace1 standing armies1 without the consent of our legislatures4 ,he has affected to render the military independent of1 and superior to1 the civil power4 ,he has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution1 and unacknowledged by our laws2 giving his assent to their acts of pretended legislation3 ,for quartering large bodies of armed troops among us4 ,for protecting them1 by mock trial1 from punishment for any murders which they should commit on the inhabitants of these ,states4 ,for cutting off our trade with all parts of the world4 ,for imposing taxes on us without our consent4 ,for depriving us1 in many cases1 of the benefits of trial by jury4 ,for transporting us beyond the seas to be tried for pretended offenses4 ,for abolishing the free system of ,english laws in a neighboring province1 establishing therein an arbitrary government1 and enlarging its boundaries1 so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these colonies4 ,for taking away our charters1 abolishing our most valuable laws1 and altering1 fundamentally1 the forms of our governments4 ,for suspending our own legislatures and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever4 ,he has abdicated government here1 by declaring us out of his protection1 and waging war against us4 ,he has plundered our seas1 ravaged our coasts1 burnt our towns1 and destroyed the lives of our people4 ,he is1 at this time1 transporting large armies of foreign mercenaries1 to complete the works of death1 desolation and tyranny1 already begun with circumstances of cruelty and perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages1 and totally unworthy the head of a civilized nation4 ,he has constrained our fellow-citizens1 taken captive on the high seas1 to bear arms against their country1 to become the executioners of their friends and brethren1 or to fall themselves by their hands4 ,he has excited domestic insurrection among us1 and has endeavored to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers the merciless ,indian savages1 whose known rule of warfare is an undistinguished destruction of all ages1 sexes and conditions4 ,in every stage of these oppressions we have petitioned for redress in the most humble terms2 our repeated petitions have been answered only by repeated injury4 ,a prince whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a tyrant is unfit to be ruler of a free people4 ,nor have we been wanting in attention to our ,british brethren4 ,we have warned them1 from time to time1 of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us4 ,we have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here4 ,we have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity2 and we have conjured them1 by the ties of our common kindred1 to disavow these usurpations1 which would inevitably interrupt our connection and correspondence4 ,they1 too1 have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity4 ,we must1 therefore1 acquiesce in the necessity which denounces our separation1 and hold them1 as we hold the rest of mankind1 enemies in war1 in peace friends4 ,we1 therefore1 the representatives of the ,united ,states of ,america1 in general ,congress assembled1 appealing to the supreme ,judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions1 do1 in the name and by the authority of the good people of these colonies1 solemnly publish and declare that these ,united ,colonies are1 and of right ought to be1 free and independent ,states2 that they are absolved from all allegiance to the ,british crown1 and that all political connection between them and the state of ,great ,britain is1 and ought to be1 totally dissolved2 and that1 as free and independent ,states1 they have full power to levy war1 conclude peace1 contract alliances1 establish commerce and to do all other acts and things which independent ,states may of right do4 ,and for the support of this declaration1 with a firm reliance on the protection of ,divine ,providence1 we mutually pledge to each other our lives1 our fortunes and our sacred honor4 ,the foregoing declaration was1 by order of the ,congress1 engrossed1 and signed by the following members3 ,,john ,,hancock ,new ,hampshire--,josiah ,bartlett1 ,william ,whipple1

,,of ,,not ,,forgetting4 ,a ,brief but ,comprehensive ,treatise ,based on ,loisette's ,famous ,system of ,memory ,culture4 ,so much has been said about ,loisette's memory system1 the art has been so widely advertised1 and so carefully guarded from all the profane who do not send five or many dollars to the ,professor1 that a few pages1 showing how man may be his own ,loisette1 may be both interesting and valuable4 ,in the first place1 the system is a good one1 and well worth the labor of mastering1 and if the directions are implicitly followed there can be no doubt that the memory will be greatly strengthened and improved1 and that the mnemonic feats otherwise impossible may be easily performed4 ,loisette1 however1 is not an inventor1 but an introducer4 ,he stands in the same relation to ,dr4 ,pick that the retail dealer holds to the manufacturer3 the one produced the article1 the other brings it to the public4 ,even this statement is not quite fair to ,loisette1 for he has brought much practical common sense to bear upon ,pick's system1 and1 in preparing the new art of mnemonics for the market1 in many ways he has made it his own4 ,if each man would reflect upon the method by which he himself remembers things1 he would find his hand upon the key of the whole mystery4 ,for instance1 ,i was once trying to remember the word ,blythe4 ,there occurred to my mind the words ,bellman1 ,belle1 and the verse3 ---- the peasant upward climbing ,hears the bells of ,buloss chiming4 ,barcarole1 ,barrack1 and so on1 until finally the word ,blythe presented itself with a strange insistence1 long after ,i had ceased trying to recall it4 ,on another occasion1 when trying to recall the name ,richardson1 ,i got the words hay-rick1 ,robertson1 ,randallstown1 and finally wealthy1 from which1 naturally1 ,i got rich and ,richardson almost in a breath4 ,still another example3 ,trying to recall the name of an old schoolmate1 ,grady1 ,i got ,brady1 grave1 gaseous1 gastronome1 gracious1 and ,i finally abandoned the attempt1 simply saying to myself that it began with a ,g1 and there was an a sound after it4 ,the next morning when thinking of something entirely different1 this name ,grady came up in my mind with as much distinctness as though someone had whispered it in my ear4 ,this remembering was done without any conscious effort on my part1 and was evidently the result of the exertion made the day before when the mnemonic processes were put to work4 ,every reader must have had a similar experience which he can recall1 and which will fall in line with the examples given4 ,it follows1 then1 that when we endeavor1 without the aid of any system1 to recall a forgotten fact or name1 our memory presents to us words of similar sound or meaning in its journey toward the goal to which we have started it4 ,this goes to show that our ideas are arranged in groups in whatever secret cavity or recess of the brain they occupy1 and that the arrangement is not an alphabetical one exactly1 and not entirely by meaning1 but after some fashion partaking of both4 ,if you are looking for the word meadow you may reach middle before you come to it1 or ,mexico1 or many1 words beginning with the m sound1 or containing the dow1 as window1 or dough1 or you may get field or farm--but you are on the right track1 and if you do not interfere with your intellectual process you will finally come to the idea which you are seeking4 ,how often have you heard people say1 ,i forget his name1 it is something like ,beadle or ,beagle--at any rate it begins with a ,b4 ,each and all of these were unconscious ,loisettians1 and they were practicing blindly1 and without proper method or direction1 the excellent system which he teaches4 ,the thing1 then1 to do--and it is the final and simple truth which ,loisette teaches--is to travel over this ground in the other direction--to cement the fact which you wish to remember to some other fact or word which you know will be brought out by the implied conditions--and thus you will always be able to travel from your given starting-point to the thing which you wish to call to mind4 ,it seems as though a channel were cut in our mind-stuff along which the memory flows4 ,how to construct an easy channel for any event or series of events or facts which one wishes to remember1 along which the mind will ever afterward travel1 is the secret of mnemonics4 ,loisette1 in common with all the mnemonic teachers1 uses the old device of representing numbers by letters--and as this is the first and easiest step in the art1 this seems to be the most logical place to introduce the accepted equivalents of the ,arabic numerals3 #j is always represented by s1 z or c soft4 #a is always represented by t1 th or d4 #b is always represented by n4 #c is always represented by m4 #d is always represented by r4 #e is always represented by l4 #f is always represented by sh1 j1 ch soft or g soft4 #g is always represented by g hard1 k1 c hard1 q or final ng4 #h is always represented by f or v4 #i is always represented by p or b4 ,all the other letters are used simply to fill up4 ,double letters in a word count only as one4 ,in fact1 the system goes by sound1 not by spelling1 ,for instance1 this or dizzy would stand for ten2 catch or gush would stand for #gf1 and the only difficulty is to make some word or phrase which will contain only the significant letters in the proper order1 filled out with non-significants into some guise of meaning or intelligibility4 ,you can remember the equivalents given above by noting that z is the first letter of zero1 and c of cipher1 t has but one stroke1 n has two1 m three2 the script f is very like #h2 the script p like #i2 r is the last letter of four2 l is the ,roman numeral for #ej1 which suggests #e4 ,the others may be retained by memorizing these nonsense lines3 ,six shy ,jewesses chase ,george4 ,seven great kings came quarreling4 ,suppose you wished to get some phrase or word that would express the number #c1fhe1 you arrange the letters this way3 #c 44 #f 44 #h 44 #e a m a sh a f a #a e e j e v e i i ch i i o o g o o u u u u h h h h w w w w x x x x y y y y ,you can make out image of law1 my shuffle1 matchville1 etc41 etc41 as far as you like to work it out4 ,now1 suppose you wished to memorize the fact that #a1jjj1jjj in gold weighs #c1fhe pounds1 you go about it in this way1 and here is the kernel and crux of ,loisette's system3 ,how much does #a1jjj1jjj in gold weigh8 ,weigh-scales4 ,scales--statue of justice4 ,statue of ,justice--image of law4 ,the process is simplicity itself4 ,the thing you wish to recall1 and that you fear to forget1 is the weight2 consequently you cement your chain of suggestion to the idea which is most prominent in your mental question4 ,what do you weigh with8 ,scales4 ,what does the mental picture of scales suggest8 ,the statue of ,justice1 blindfolded and weighing out award and punishment to man4 ,finally1 what is this statue of ,justice but the image of law8 ,and the words image of law1 translated back from the significant letters m1 g soft1 f and #a1 give you #c--f--h--e1 the number of pounds in #a1jjj1jjj in gold4 ,you bind together in your mind each separate step in the journey1 the one suggests the other1 and you will find a year from now that the fact will be as fresh in your memory as it is today4 ,you cannot lose it4 ,it is chained to you by an unbreakable mnemonic tie4 ,mark that it is not claimed that weight will of itself suggest scales1 and scales statue of ,justice1 etc41 but that1 having once passed your attention up and down that ladder of ideas1 your mental tendency will be to take the same route1 and get to the same goal again and again4 ,indeed1 beginning with the weight of #a1jjj1jjj1 image of law will turn up in your mind without your consciousness of any intermediate station on the way1 after some iteration and reiteration of the original chain4 ,again1 so as to fasten the process in the reader's mind even more firmly1 suppose that it were desired to fix the date of the battle of ,hastings 7,a4 ,d4 #ajff7 in the memory2 #ajff may be represented by the words the wise judge 7th--#a1 s--#j1 j--#f1 dg--#f2 the others are non-significants72 a chain might be made thus3 ,battle of ,hastings--arbitrament of war4 ,arbitrament of war--arbitration4 ,arbitration--judgment4 ,judgment--the wise judge4 ,make mental pictures1 connect ideas1 repeat words and sounds1 go about it any way you please1 so that you will form a mental habit of connecting the battle of ,hastings with the idea of arbitrament of war1 and so on for the other links in the chain1 and the work is done4 ,loisette makes the beginning of his system unnecessarily difficult1 to say nothing of his illogical arrangement in the grammar of the art of memory1 which he makes the first of his lessons4 ,he analyzes suggestion into-- #a4 ,inclusion4 #b4 ,exclusion4 #c4 ,concurrence4 ,all of which looks very scientific and orderly1 but is really misleading and badly named4 ,the truth is that one idea will suggest another3 #a4 ,by likeness or opposition of meaning1 as house suggests room or door1 etc42 or1 white suggests black2 cruel1 kind1 etc4 #b4 ,by likeness of sound1 as harrow and barrow2 ,henry and ,hennepin4 #c4 ,by mental juxtaposition1 a peculiarity different in each person1 and depending upon each one's own experiences4 ,thus1 ,st4 ,charles suggests railway bridge to me1 because ,i was vividly impressed by the breaking of the ,wabash bridge at that point4 ,stable and broken leg come near each other in my experience1 as do cow and shot-gun and licking4 ,out of these three sorts of suggestion it is possible to get from anyone fact to another in a chain certain and safe1 along which the mind may be depended upon afterwards always to follow4 ,the chain is1 of course1 by no means all4 ,its making and its binding must be accompanied by a vivid1 methodically directed attention1 which turns all the mental light gettable in a focus upon the subject passing across the mind's screen4 ,before ,loisette was thought of this was known4 ,in the old times in ,england1 in order to impress upon the mind of the rising generation the parish boundaries in the rural districts1 the boys were taken to each of the landmarks in succession1 the position and bearing of each pointed out carefully1 and1 in order to deepen the impression1 the young people were then and there vigorously thrashed--a mechanical method of attracting the attention which was said never to have failed4 ,this system has had its supporters in many of the old-fashioned schools1 and there are men who will read these lines who can recall1 with an itching sense of vivid impression1 the #add lickings which were said to go with the multiplication table4 ,in default of a thrashing1 however1 the student must cultivate as best he can an intense fixity of perception upon every fact or word or date that he wishes to make permanently his own4 ,it is easy4 ,it is a matter of habit4 ,if you will1 you can photograph an idea upon your cerebral gelatine so that neither years nor events will blot it out or overlay it4 ,you must be clearly and distinctly aware of the thing you are putting into your mental treasure-house1 and drastically certain of the cord by which you have tied it to some other thing of which you are sure4 ,unless it is worth your while to do this1 you might as well abandon any hope of mnemonic improvement1 which will not come without the hardest kind of hard work1 although it is work that will grow constantly easier with practice and reiteration4 ,you need1 then3 #a4 ,methodic suggestion4 #b4 ,methodic attention4 #c4 ,methodic reiteration4 ,and this is all there is to ,loisette1 and a great deal it is4 ,two of them will not do without the third4 ,you do not know how many steps there are from your hall door to your bedroom1 though you have attended to and often reiterated the journey4 ,but if there are twenty of them1 and you have once bound the word nice1 or nose1 or news or hyenas1 to the fact of the stairway1 you can never forget it4 ,the ,professor makes a point1 and very wisely1 of the importance of working through some established chain1 so that the whole may be carried away in the mind--not alone for the value of the facts so bound together1 but for the mental discipline so afforded4 ,here1 then1 is the ,president ,series1 which contains the name and date of inauguration of each ,president from ,washington to ,cleveland4 ,the manner in which it is to be mastered is this3 ,beginning at the top1 try to find in your mind some connection between each word and the one following it4 ,see how you can at some future time make one suggest the next1 either by suggestion of sound or sense1 or by mental juxtaposition4 ,when you have found this dwell on it attentively for a moment or two4 ,pass it backward and forward before you1 and then go on to the next step4 ,the chain runs thus1 the names of the ,president being in capitals1 the date words or date phrases being inclosed in parentheses3 ,president ,chosen for the first word as the one most apt to occur to the mind of anyone wishing to repeat the names of the ,presidents4 ,dentist ,president and dentist4 ,draw ,what does a dentist do8 7,to give up7 ,when something is

three figures of the date1 #hde2 but it is to be supposed that if the student knows that many figures in the date of ,polk's inauguration he can guess the other one4 ,the curious thing about this system will now become apparent4 ,if the reader has learned the series so that he can say it down from ,president to ,taft1 he can with no effort1 and without any further preparation1 say it backwards from ,taft up to the commencement6 ,there could be no better proof that this is the natural mnemonic system4 ,it proves itself by its works4 ,the series should be repeated backward and forward every day for a month1 and should be supplemented by a series of the reader's own making1 and by this one1 which gives the numbers from #j to #ajj1 and which must be chained together before they can be learned3 #j--;hoes #a--wheat #b--;hen #c--;home #d--;hair #e--oil #f--shoe #g--;hook #h--off #i--;bee #aj--;daisy #aa--tooth #ab--;dine #ac--time #ad--tower #ae--;dell #af--;ditch #ag--;duck

table1 which should be committed as thoroughly as the ,president series1 so that it can be repeated backward and forward1 any date1 figure or number can be at once constructed1 and bound by the usual chain to the fact which you wish it to accompany4 ,when the student wishes to go farther and attack larger problems than the simple binding of two facts together1 there is little in ,loisette's system that is new1 although there is much that is good4 ,if it is a book that is to be learned as one would prepare for an examination1 each chapter is to be considered separately4 ,of each an epitome is to be written in which the writer must exercise all of his ingenuity to reduce the matter in hand to its final skeleton of fact4 ,this he is to commit to memory both by the use of the chain and the old system of interrogation4 ,suppose after much labor through a wide space of language one boils a chapter or an event down to the final irreducible sediment3 ,magna ,charta was exacted by the barons from ,king ,john at ,runnymede4 ,you must now turn this statement this way and that way2 asking yourself about it every possible and impossible question1 gravely considering the answers1 and1 if you find any part of it especially difficult to remember1 chaining it to the question which will bring it out4 ,thus1 ,what was exacted by the barons from ,king ,john at ,runnymede8 ,magna ,charta4 ,by whom was ,magna ,charta exacted from ,king ,john at ,runnymede8 ,by the barons4 ,from whom was1 etc41 etc48 ,king ,john4 ,from what king1 etc41 etc48 ,king ,john4 ,where was ,magna ,charta1 etc41 etc48 ,at ,runnymede4 ,and so on and so on1 as long as your ingenuity can suggest questions to ask1 or points of view from which to consider the statement4 ,your mind will be finally saturated with the information1 and prepared to spill it out at the first squeeze of the examiner4 ,this1 however1 is not new4 ,it was taught in the schools hundreds of years before ,loisette was born4 ,old newspaper men will recall in connection with it ,horace ,greeley's statement that the test of a news item was the clear and satisfactory manner in which a report answered the interrogatories1 ,what8 ,when8 ,where8 ,who8 ,why8 ,in the same way ,loisette advises the learning of poetry1 e4 g43 ,the ,assyrian came down like the wolf on the fold4 ,who came down8 ,how did the ,assyian come down8 ,like what animal did8 etc4 ,and so on and so on1 until the verses are exhausted of every scrap of information to be had out of them by the most assiduous cross-examination4 ,whatever the reader may think of the availability or value of this part of the system1 there are so many easily applicable tests of the worth of much that ,loisette has done1 that it may be taken with the rest4 ,few people1 to give an easy example1 can remember the value of the ratio between the circumference and the diameter of the circle beyond four places of decimals1 or at most six--#c4adaeib4 ,here is the value to #ajh decimal places3 #c4adaeibfe4cehigicbch4dfbfdcchcb4giejbh hdai4gaficiicge4ajehbjigdi4- #ddeibcjgha4fdjfbhfbjh4iihfbhjcdh4becdba agjf4gihbadhjhf plus4 ,by a very simple application of the numerical letter values these #ajh decimal places can be carried in the mind and recalled about as fast as you can write them down4 ,all that is to be done is to memorize these nonsense lines3 ,mother ,day will buy any shawl4 ,my love pick up my new muff4 ,a ,russian jeer may move a woman4 ,cables enough for ,utopia4 ,get a cheap ham pie by my cooley4 ,the slave knows a bigger ape4 ,i rarely hop on my sick foot4 ,cheer a sage in a fashion safe4 ,a baby fish now views my wharf4 ,annually ,mary ,ann did kiss a jay1 ,a cabby found a rough savage4 ,now translate each significant into its proper value and you have the task accomplished4 ,mother ,day1 m--#c1 th--l1 r--#d1 d--l1 and so on4 ,learn the lines one at a time by the method of interrogatories4 ,who will buy any shawl8 ,which ,mrs4 ,day will buy a shawl8 ,is ,mother ,day particular about the sort of shawl she will buy8 ,has she bought a shawl8 etc41 etc4 ,then cement the end of each line to the beginning of the next one1 thus1 ,shawl--warm garment--warmth--love--my love1 and go on as before4 ,stupid as the work may seem to you1 you can memorize the figures in fifteen minutes this way so that you will not forget them in fifteen years4 ,similarly you can take ,haydn's ,dictionary of ,dates and turn fact after fact into nonsense lines like these which you cannot lose4 ,and this ought to be enough to show anybody the whole art4 ,if you look back across the sands of time and find out that it is that ridiculous old ,thirty days hath ,september which comes to you when you are trying to think of the length of ,october--if you can quote your old prosody1 ,o datur ambiguis1 etc41 with much more certainty than you can serve up your ,horace2 if1 in fine1 jingles and alliterations1 wise and otherwise1 have stayed with you1 while solid and serviceable information has faded away1 you may be certain that here is the key to the enigma of memory4 ,you can apply it yourself in a hundred ways4 ,if you wish to clinch in your mind the fact that ,mr4 ,love lives at #dhe ,dearborn ,street1 what is more easy than to turn #dhe into the word rifle and chain the ideas together1 say thus3 ,love--happiness--good time-- picnic--forest--wood--rangers--range--ri fle range--rifle fine weapon--costly weapon--dearly bought--,dearborn4 ,or if you wish to remember ,mr4 ,bowman's name and you notice he has a mole on his face

stone of malice when failure settles its cloud upon our head4 ,the one absolutely unselfish friend a man may have in this selfish world1 the one that never deserts him1 the one that never proves ungrateful or treacherous1 is the dog4 ,gentlemen of the jury1 ,a man's dog stands by him in prosperity and poverty1 in health and in sickness4 ,he will sleep on the cold ground1 when the wintry winds

faithful and true even to death4 ,,health ,,and ,,beauty ,,would ,,you ,,be ,,beautiful8 ,in womanly beauty the excellences expected and looked for are faultless symmetry of form and feature and a complexion varying in hue as the mind is affected by internal emotion1 but with an expression of purity1 gentleness1 sensibility1 refinement and intelligence4 ,moore1 the poet1 has given expression to his ideal of beauty in the following lines3 ,this was not the beauty--,oh1 nothing like this1 ,that to young ,nourmahal gave such magic bliss2 ,but that loveliness1 ever in motion1 which plays ,like the light upon autumn's shadowy days4 ,now here and now there1 giving warmth as it flies ,from the lips to the cheek1 from the cheek to the eyes2 ,now melting in mist1 and now breaking in gleams ,like the glimpses a saint has of heavenly dreams4 ,wordsworth expressed himself in the following lines3 ,he was among the prime in worth1 ,an object beauteous to behold2 ,well born1 well bred2 ,i sent him

lovely and grow into the beautiful4 ,,care ,,of ,,the ,,scalp ,,and ,,hair4 ,beautiful hair1 beautiful skin and a beautiful form are the three graces which are the birthright of every woman1 but which1 through lack of good judgment and common sense1 or through thoughtlessness on the part of mothers of growing children1 comparatively few possess4 ,beautiful hair is one of nature's greatest gifts1 and yet we never seem to appreciate it until there is danger of losing it1 or until it becomes faded and lusterless because we have not used the right means for preserving it4 ,the beauty and continuance of the hair depend upon its proper nourishment1 gained by the circulation of blood through the scalp1 and this must be maintained to keep the hair in good condition4 ,the structure of the hair is very beautiful1 and each hair is contained in a delicate sheath which fits into a slight depression in the skin called the follicle1 and around the base of the hair nature has provided glands to secrete oily matter1 the purpose of which is to keep the hair glossy4 ,in early maturity the hair reaches the state of greatest beauty1 and at this time the greatest care should be given it1 feeding and nourishing it as we would a plant--giving it plenty of air and sunlight1 carefully shampooing at least once in ten days4 ,massage the scalp to keep it loose and flexible4 ,use electricity1 a good tonic1 and occasionally singe the split ends4 ,if this process is commenced at the right time1 the result will be fewer cases of baldness in men and thin1 poor hair in women4 ,the hair should also be worn loosely1 forming a soft frame for the face1 which is always more becoming than tightly drawn hair4 ,many women drag their hair out by the roots by tying back too firmly4 ,,care ,,of ,,the ,,skin4 ,a beautiful skin is smooth1 soft and clear2 the color varies in different individuals4 ,in perfect health it is moist and with the delicate shading of a flower--climate1 hair and eyes1 of course1 determining the color1 and the continued beauty of it depending upon pure blood1 fresh air and sunlight1 also perfect cleanliness and care4 ,the pores should always be kept free from obstruction and extremes of heat and cold avoided as much as possible4 ,in health1 the care of the skin is a simple matter1 massage being a great factor1 assisted always by the use of pure creams4 ,a good cleansing cream is a great necessity1 as it enters the pores and frees them from dirt1 leaving the skin soft and pliable1 in which condition it is ready to absorb the skin food when the finger massage is given1 making it possible for the gentle electric current to force the ointment into the deeper layers of the skin1 thus effecting the removal of moth patches1 tan1 freckles and other discolorations and imperfections4 ,the vibratory massage should follow1 the purpose of which is to stimulate the tissues1 throwing off worn-out particles and increasing the circulation of the blood by giving proper exercise to the facial muscles1 thereby restoring and preserving the color and contour1 making the skin beautiful1 clear1 eradicating and preventing wrinkles4 ,the use of a pure face powder is absolutely necessary4 ,best results are obtained by using a blended powder1 as the skin tint is thus assured4 ,,to ,,develop ,,the ,,bust4 ,a beautiful bust is the desire and admiration of every woman4 ,if nature has not been kind in this respect1 any woman can develop a beautiful bust by exercise1 bathing and gentle massage with a good bust ointment or skin food4 ,electric massage is very beneficial1 and if properly given1 brings quick and sure results4 ,swimming and deep breathing are great aids4 ,,care ,,of ,,the ,,hands4 ,a study of the hand is very interesting1 and if mothers understood more of its beautiful construction many of the little accidents which result in deformed finger nails could be avoided4 ,mothers should attend most carefully to the early cultivation of their children's finger nails1 as the habit of biting them is so easily formed and is sure to permanently destroy their beauty4 ,a perfect hand is rounded and plump1 soft1 white and dimpled1 with tapering finger tips and filbert-shaped nails1 snowing the little half-moon4 ,it is possible for any woman to have such a hand if she is willing to take time once a week to have the nails treated and to give them a little personal attention each day4 ,great care should be taken in washing the hands4 ,a mild soap should be used1 and particular attention paid to the thorough drying of them1 after which a good cuticle cream should be applied and well rubbed in4 ,the same cream may be used to loosen the cuticle at the base of the nail1 when it can be gently pushed back1 thus keeping the half-moon exposed4 ,an orange-wood stick should always be used to clean the nails4 ,massaging the hands at least once a month aids wonderfully in making them symmetrical and keeping the joints flexible and the skin free from dark spots and wrinkles4 ,,infant ,,feeding ,,and ,,management4 ,it is of prime importance in feeding an infant to do this at regular intervals1 since during the first three months of its life the feeding habits of the child should be established1 and if care be used in this regard the child will wake of its own accord at the proper time4 ,the last meal at night should be at #aa p4 m41 and if the child is healthy and will sleep it need not be fed until #c to #e a4 m4 the following morning4 ,in both breast and artificial feeding the above applies1 and the same method should be employed2 namely1 the child should be held in the arms during the meal1 which should last from ten to fifteen minutes4 ,both in breast and artificial feeding it is possible to overfeed the child4 ,many infants are systematically overfed4 ,the young mother should understand how small an infant's stomach is4 ,at birth it will hold a little more than an ounce of fluid1 or two tablespoonfuls1 and at the end of two months only three ounces4 ,if1 therefore1 the mother persists in trying to give the child four ounces of food1 the child will suffer from an excess4 ,many children during the first few mouths of life bring up their food1 and the mother fears that there is some inherited tendency to weak digestion4 ,it is wrong to feed a child simply because it cries1 as very frequently it is not a cry of hunger1 but one caused by indigestion from overfeeding4 ,if the child is being fed with the bottle it is important that the food be given at a temperature of #ajj deg4 ,f41 or as nearly that as possible2 never over2 and if the child be fed out of doors in its carriage it is well to have a flannel bag of some kind to slip over the bottle to keep it at the same temperature until the meal is finished4 ,many cases of colic are caused by inattention to this point4 ,it is a common mistake that when a child cries it needs additional food4 ,there are many cases where a little drink of water is the prime need of the child1 and great care should be taken that this is heated to the proper temperature1 and especially that no water be given to the child except that which has been boiled4 ,a few teaspoonfuls should be given to the child1 therefore1 several times a day1 but aside from that he should have nothing but his regular food until he is at least a year old4 ,for the same reason1 therefore1 if a child be fed by the bottle1 the water used in preparing the food should have been previously boiled1 and care should be exercised not to expose the food to the air during or after its preparation4 ,it should be remembered that the food of a child must be nutritious1 and that in this food1 especially when at the proper temperature for the infant1 bacteria from the air will flourish wonderfully fast1 and therefore the food should not be exposed to possible contamination4 ,it is of very great importance that the feeding-bottles be always clean and sweet4 ,it is an advantage to have several bottles on hand1 and also two or three brushes for cleaning4 ,keep a special vessel1 with water in which there is a little bicarbonate of soda1 so that the moment the bottle is used it may be thoroughly washed and kept in the water4 ,do not use a nipple with a rubber tube1 but the short1 black rubber nipples1 which fit over the mouth of the bottle4 ,do not enlarge the hole in the nipple1 so as to make it too easy for the baby to draw its food1 otherwise the food being taken so rapidly into the stomach will often cause pain or vomiting4 ,in washing the nipples turn them inside out and see that they are as thoroughly cleaned as possible1 and keep them for use in a bottle filled with boiled water with a pinch of boric acid added4 ,the ,first ,nursing4 ,it is very important that the child should be put to the breast immediately after it is washed4 ,this is very necessary1 both for the mother and the child1 and prevents subsequent troubles4 ,the fluid contained in the breast is at this stage called colostrum1 and is intended by ,nature to act upon the child as a laxative4 ,this first nursing stimulates the secretion of the milk and causes uterine contraction1 which is very much needed at this time4 ,it is well to wash the infant's mouth out with sterilized water every time it feeds4 ,for this purpose use clean water which has been boiled and allowed to cool1 or a solution of boric acid in boiled water--#e grains to the ounce of water4 ,infants1 as a rule1 should be bathed once a day1 but never immediately after being nursed or fed4 ,in very warm weather a child may be sponged in the evening as well as in the morning4 ,the water for the bath of a young baby should be warm1 and the temperature can be judged by testing it with the elbow1 which is more sensitive than the hand4 ,lay a small blanket on the lap1 cover the child with a flannel and sponge it under the clothes4 ,this prevents it from taking cold from exposure1 ,the room should not be cooler than #fh deg4 ,f41 and the door must be kept closed to avoid drafts4 ,use only pure white soap1 and a soft cloth is better than a sponge4 ,the body should be carefully dried and lightly powdered to absorb any moisture that may remain4 ,,the ,,names ,,of ,,the ,,months4 ,,the ,,derivations ,,of ,,the ,,names ,,of ,,the ,,months4 ,january4--,the ,roman

night4 ,that milk which has changed may be sweetened or rendered fit for use again by stirring in a little soda4 ,that a tablespoonful of turpentine boiled with your white clothes will greatly aid the whitening process4 ,that kerosene will soften boots and shoes that have been hardened by water and will render them as pliable as new4 ,that thoroughly wetting the hair once or twice with a solution of salt and water will keep it from falling out4 ,that salt fish are quickest and best freshened by soaking in sour milk4 ,that salt will curdle new milk2 hence1 in preparing porridge1 gravies1 etc41 salt should not be added until the dish is prepared4 ,that one teaspoonful of ammonia to a teacup of water1 applied with a rag1 will clean silver or gold jewelry perfectly4 ,that paint stains that are dry and old may be removed from cotton and woolen goods with chloroform4 ,it is a good plan to first cover the spot with olive oil or butter4 ,that clear boiling water will remove tea stains4 ,pour the water through the stain and thus prevent it spreading over the fabric4 ,that charcoal is recommended as an absorbent of gases in the milk-room where foul gases are present4 ,it should be freshly

aside for two or three years4 ,that a good agency for keeping the air of the cellar sweet and wholesome is whitewash made of good white lime and water only4 ,the addition of glue or size1 or anything of that kind1 only furnishes organic matter to speedily putrefy4 ,the use of lime in whitewash is not only to give a white color1 but it greatly promotes the complete oxidation of effluvia in the cellar air4 ,any vapors that contain combined nitrogen in the unoxidized form contribute powerfully to the development of disease germs4 ,,character ,,as ,,seen ,,in ,,faces4 ,thick lips indicate

grant1 or which she acquires by her trade1 business1 labor1 or services performed on her separate account1 shall1 notwithstanding her marriage1 remain her sole and separate property1 and may be used1 collected and invested by her in her own name1 and shall not be subject to the interference or control of her husband1 or be liable for his debts1 unless for such debts as may have been contracted for the support of herself or children by her as his agent4 ,a married woman may likewise bargain1 sell1 assign1 transfer and convey such property1 and enter into contracts regarding the same on her separate trade1 labor or business with the like effect as if she were unmarried4 ,her husband1 however1 is not liable for such contracts1 and they do not render him or his property in any way liable therefor4 ,she may also sue and be sued in all matters having relation to her sale and separate property in the same manner as if she were sole4 ,in the following cases a married woman's contract may be enforced against her and her separate estate3 #a4 ,when the contract is created in or respecting the carrying on of the trade or business of the wife4 #b4 ,when it relates to or is made for the sole benefit of her sole or separate estate4 #c4 ,when the intention to charge the separate estate is expressed in the contract creating the liability4 ,when a husband receives a principal sum of money belonging to his wife1 the law presumes he receives it for her use1 and he must account for it1 or expend it on her account by her authority or direction1 or that she gave it to him as a gift4 ,if he receives interest or income and spends it with her knowledge and without objection1 a gift will be presumed from acquiescence4 ,money received by a husband from his wife and expended by him1 under her direction1 on his land1 in improving the home of the family1 is a gift1 and cannot be recovered by the wife1 or reclaimed1 or an account demanded4 ,an appropriation by a wife1 herself1 of her separate property to the use and benefit of her husband1 in the absence of all agreement to repay1 or any circumstances from which such an agreement can be inferred1 will not create the relation of debtor and creditor1 nor render the husband liable to account4 ,though no words of gift be spoken1 a gift by a wife to her husband may be shown by the very nature of the transaction1 or appear from the attending circumstances4 ,a wife who causelessly deserts her husband is not entitled to the aid of a court of equity in getting possession of such chattels as she has contributed to the furnishing

the intention to furnish the materials1 or a settlement made with the contractor and given to the wife1 her agent or trustee4 ,the common law of the ,united ,states has some curious provisions regarding the rights of married women1 though in all the ,states there are statutory provisions essentially modifying this law4 ,as it now stands the husband is responsible for necessaries supplied to the wife even should he not fail to supply them himself1 and is held liable if he turn her from his house1 or otherwise separates himself from her without good cause4 ,he is not held liable if the wife deserts him1 or if he turns her away for good cause4 ,if she leaves him through good cause1 then he is liable4 ,if a man lives with a woman as his wife1 and so represents her1 even though this representation is made to one who knows she is not1 he is liable the same way as if she were his wife4 ,,the ,,law ,,of ,,finding4 ,the general rule is that the finder has a clear title against every

bind their employes1 but they cannot bind the public4 ,the finder has been held to stand in the place of the owner1 so that he was permitted to prevail in all action against a person who found an article which the plaintiff had originally found1 but subsequently lost4 ,the police have no special rights in regard to articles lost1 unless those rights are conferred by statute4 ,receivers of articles found are trustees for the owner or finder4 ,they have no power in the absence of special statute to keep an article against the finder1 any more than the finder has to retain an article

interesting and instructive3 ,aeroplane--,a generic term applied in common use to all classes of sustaining surfaces2 strictly applicable only to flat surfaces4 ,adjusting ,surfaces--,commonly a comparatively small surface1 usually at the end of a wing tip1 used to adjust lateral balance2 preferably restricted to surfaces capable of variable adjustment1 but not of movement by controlling devices4 ,see ,stabilizer' and ,wing tip and compare ,aileron4 ,advancing ,edge--,the front edge of a sustaining or other surface4 ,advancing ,surface--,a surface that precedes another through the

disease to which the human body is liable4 ,dr4 ,andrew ,t4 ,still1 who claims to have made the discoveries that led to the establishment of the school of ,osteopathy1 asserts that all diseases and lesions are the result of the luxation1 dislocation1 or breakage of some bone or bones2 this1 however1 is not now maintained to any great extent by his followers4 ,osteopathists1 though1 do generally claim that all diseases arise from some maladjustment of the bones of the human body1 and that treatment1 therefore1 must be to secure the normal adjustment of the bones and ligaments that form the skeleton4 ,they claim that a dislocation is not always necessarily the result of external violence2 it may be caused by the ulceration of bones1 the elongation of ligaments1 or excessive muscular action4 ,the constriction of an important artery or vein1 which may be caused by a very slightly displaced bone1 an indurated muscle1 or other organ1 may produce an excess of blood in one part of the body1 thereby causing a deficiency in some other part4 ,a dislocated member will generally show alteration in the form of the joint and axis of the limb2 loss of power and proper motion2 increased length or shortening of the limb2 prominence at one point and depression at another2 greatly impaired circulation1 and pain due to the obstruction of nerve force in the parts involved4 ,the osteopathist claims that pain and disease arise mainly from some mal-adjustment in some part of the body1 and that a return to good health involves treatment for the normal adjustment of the skeleton2 he asserts1 though any luxation may be only partial1 it may cause pressure at some point upon a blood vessel1 or a nerve of which the patient may be unconscious1 and thus be a barrier to the restoration of good health4 ,osteopathy asserts that trying to heal the body of an ailment caused by a dislocated member1 be it a bone1 ligament1 or nerve1 by which abnormal pressure is maintained upon a blood vessel or a nerve1 would be like trying to operate a machine with an important cog out of gear4 ,to cure it involves the reduction of a dislocation2 the breaking up of adhesions1 and the arousing of the enervated organ or organs partially or wholly failing in the performance of function4 ,,the ,,law ,,of ,,trademarks4 ,any person1 firm or corporation can obtain protection for any lawful trademark by complying with the following3 #a4 ,by causing to be recorded in the ,patent ,office the name1 residence and place of business of persons desiring the trademark4 #b4 ,the class of merchandise and description of the same4 #c4 ,a description of the trademark itself with facsimiles4 #d4 ,the length of time that the said mark has already been used4 #e4 ,by payment of the required fee--#f for labels and #be for trademarks4 #f4 ,by complying with such regulations as may be prescribed by the ,commissioner of ,patents4 #g4 ,a lawful trademark must consist of some arbitrary word 7not the name of a person or place71 indicating or not the use or nature of the thing to which it is applied2 of some designating symbol1 or of both said word and symbol4 ,,how ,,to ,,obtain ,a ,,patent4 ,patents are issued in the name of the ,united ,states1 and under the seal of the ,patent ,office4 ,a patent is a grant by the ,government to the inventor1 his heirs or assigns1 for a limited period1 of the exclusive right to make1 use or sell any new and useful art1 machine1 manufacture or composition of matter1 or any new and useful improvement thereof1 or any new1 original and ornamental design for any article of manufacture4 ,every patent contains a grant to the patentee1 his heirs or assigns1 for the term of seventeen years1 of the exclusive right to make1 use and vend the invention or discovery throughout the ,united ,states and the ,territories1 referring to the specification for the particulars thereof4 ,if it appears that the inventor1 at the time of making his application1 believed himself to be the first inventor or discoverer1 a patent will not be refused on account of the invention or discovery1 or any part thereof1 having been known or used in any foreign country before his invention or discovery thereof1 if it had not been before patented or described in any printed publication4 ,joint inventors are entitled to a joint patent2 neither can claim one separately4 ,independent inventors of distinct and independent improvements in the same machine cannot obtain a joint patent for their separate inventions2 nor does the fact that one furnishes the capital and another makes the invention entitle them to make application as joint inventors2 but in such case they may become joint patentees4 ,application for a patent must be made in writing to the ,commissioner of ,patents1 from whom blanks and printed instructions can be obtained by mail4 ,,reissues4--,a reissue is granted to the original patentee1 his legal representatives1 or the assignees of the entire interest1 when1 by reason of a defective or insufficient specification1 or by reason of the patentee claiming as his invention or discovery more than he had a right to claim as new1 the original patent is inoperative or invalid1 provided the error has arisen from inadvertence1 accident or mistake and without any fraudulent or deceptive intention4 ,,caveats4--,a caveat1 under the patent law1 is a notice given to the office of the caveator's claim as inventor1 in order to prevent the grant of a patent to another for the same alleged invention upon an application filed during the life of the caveat without notice to the caveator4 ,any citizen of the ,united ,states who has made a new invention or discovery1 and desires further time to mature the same1 may1 on payment of a fee of #aj1 file in the ,patent ,office a caveat setting forth the object and the distinguishing characteristics of the invention1 and praying protection of his right until he shall have matured his invention4 ,such caveat shall be filed in the confidential archives of the office and preserved in secrecy1 and shall be operative for the term of one year from the filing thereof4 ,an alien has the same privilege1 if he has resided in the ,united ,states one year next preceding the filing of his caveat1 and has made oath of his intention to become a citizen4 ,the caveat must comprise a specification1 oath1 and1 when the nature of the case admits of it1 a drawing1 and1 like the application1 must be limited to a single invention or improvement4 ,,fees4--,fees must be paid in advance1 and are as follows4 ,on filing each original application for a patent1 #ae4 ,on issuing each original patent1 #bj4 ,in design cases3 ,for three years and six months1 #aj3 for

,,quickly4 ,always consider the amount of purchase as if that much money were already counted out1 then add to amount of purchase enough small change to make an even dollar1 counting out the even dollars last until full amount is made up4 ,if the purchase amounts to #eg cents1 and you are handed #b4jj in payment1 count out #dc cents first to make an even dollar4 ,then layout the other dollar4 ,should the purchase be #c4fi1 to be taken out of #bj4jj1 begin with #c4fi as the basis and make up even #d4jj by laying out #ca cents4 ,this #ca cents with the amount of the purchase you will

houses usually invoice their goods to retailers at list prices4 ,list prices were once upon a time supposed to be retail prices1 but of late a system of long list prices has come into vogue in many lines of trade--that is1 the list price is made exorbitantly high1 so that wholesalers can give enormous discounts4 ,these discounts1 whether large or small1 are called trade discounts1 and are usually deducted at a certain rate per cent from the face of invoice4 ,the amount of discount generally depends upon size of bill or terms of settlement1 or both4 ,sometimes two or more discounts are allowed4 ,thus #cj and #e is expressed #cj and #e meaning first a discount of #cj and then #e from the remainder4 #cj and #e is not #ce but #cc-a_/c4 #aj1 #e and #c off means three successive discounts4 ,a wholesale house allowing #aj1 #e and #c off gets more for its goods than it would at #ah off4 ,,how ,,to ,,detect ,,counterfeit ,,money4 ,in the space at disposal here1 it is impossible

of these costs but a trifle4 ,a preparation may be made at home which will answer about as well as the chloride of lime4 ,dissolve a bushel of salt in a barrel of water1 and with the salt water slake a barrel of lime1 which should be made wet enough to form a thin paste or wash4 ,to ,disinfect a ,cellar4--,a damp1 musty cellar may be sweetened by sprinkling upon the floor pulverized copperas1 chloride of lime1 or even common lime4 ,the most effective means ,i have ever used to disinfect decaying vegetable matter is chloride of lime in solution4 ,one pound may be dissolved in two gallons of water4 ,plaster of ,paris has also been found an excellent absorbent of noxious odors4 ,if used one part with three parts of charcoal1 it will be found still better4 ,how to ,thaw ,out a ,water ,pipe4--,water pipes usually freeze up when exposed1 for inside the walls1 where they cannot be reached1 they are or should be packed to prevent freezing4 ,to thaw out a frozen pipe1 bundle a newspaper into a torch1 light it1 and pass it along the pipe slowly4 ,the ice will yield to this much quicker than to hot water or wrappings or hot cloths1 as is the common practice4 ,to ,prevent ,mold4--,a small quantity of carbolic acid added to paste1 mucilage and ink1 will prevent mold4 ,an ounce of the acid to a gallon of whitewash will keep cellars and dairies from the disagreeable odor which often taints milk and meat kept in such places4 ,thawing ,frozen ,gas ,pipe4--,mr4 ,f4 ,h4 ,shelton says3 ,i took off from over the pipe1 some four or five inches1 just a crust of earth1 and then put a couple of bushels of lime in the space1 poured water over it1 and slaked it1 and then put canvas over that1 and rocks on the canvas1 so as to keep the wind from getting underneath4 ,next morning1 on returning there1 ,i found that the frost had been drawn out from the ground for nearly three feet4 ,you can appreciate what an advantage that was1 for picking through frozen ground1 with the thermometer below zero1 is no joke4 ,since then we have tried it several times4 ,it is an excellent plan if you have time enough to let the time work4 ,in the daytime you cannot afford to waste the time1 but if you have a spare night in which to work1 it is worth while to try it4 ,how to ,test a ,thermometer4--,the common thermometer in a japanned iron case is usually inaccurate4 ,to test the thermometer1 bring water into the condition of active boiling1 warm the thermometer gradually in the steam and then plunge it into the water4 ,if it indicates a fixed temperature of two hundred and twelve degrees1 the instrument is a good one4 ,indelible ,ink4--,an indelible ink that cannot be erased1 even with acids1 can be obtained from the following recipe3 ,to good gall ink add a strong solution of ,prussian blue dissolved in distilled water4 ,this will form a writing fluid which cannot be erased without destruction of the paper4 ,the ink will write greenish blue1 but afterward will turn black4 ,to ,get a ,broken ,cork ,out of a ,bottle4--,if1 in drawing a cork1 it breaks1 and the lower part falls down into the liquid1 tie a long loop in a bit of twine1 or small cord1 and put it in1 holding the bottle so as to bring the piece of cork near to the lower part of the neck4 ,catch it in the loop1 so as to hold it stationary4 ,you can then easily extract it with a corkscrew4 ,a ,wash for ,cleaning ,silver4--,mix together half an ounce of fine salt1 half an ounce of powdered alum1 and half an ounce of cream of tartar4 ,put them into a large white-ware pitcher1 and pour on two ounces of water1 and stir them frequently1 till entirely dissolved4 ,then transfer the mixture to clean bottles and cork them closely4 ,before using it1 shake the bottles well4 ,pour some of the liquid into a bowl1 and wash the silver all over with it1 using an old1 soft1 fine linen cloth4 ,let it stand about ten minutes1 and then rub it dry with a buckskin4 ,it will make the silver look like new4 ,to ,remove the ,odor from a ,vial4--,the odor of its last contents may be removed from a vial by filling it with cold water1 and letting it stand in any airy place uncorked for three days1 changing the water every day4 ,to ,loosen a ,glass ,stopper4--,the manner in which apothecaries loosen glass stoppers when there is difficulty in getting them out is to press the thumb of the right hand very hard against the lower part of the stopper1 and then give the stopper a twist the other way1 with the thumb and forefinger of the left hand1 keeping the bottle stiff in a steady position4 ,to ,soften ,boots and ,shoes4--,kerosene will soften boots and shoes which have been hardened by water1 and render them as pliable as new4 ,to ,remove ,stains1 ,spots1 and ,mildew from ,furniture4--,take half a pint of ninety-eight per cent alcohol1 a quarter of an ounce each of pulverized resin and gum shellac1 add half a pint of linseed oil1 shake well and apply with a brush or sponge4 ,sweet oil will remove finger marks from varnished furniture1 and kerosene from oiled furniture4 ,to ,freshen ,gilt ,frames4--,gilt frames may be revived by carefully dusting them1 and then washing with one ounce of soda beaten up with the whites of three eggs4 ,scraped patches should be touched up with gold paint4 ,castile soap and water1 with proper care1 may be used to clean oil paintings4 ,other methods should not be employed without some skill4 ,to ,fill ,cracks in ,plaster4--,use vinegar instead of water to mix your plaster of ,paris4 ,the resultant mass will be like putty1 and will not set for twenty or thirty minutes1 whereas if you use water the plaster will become hard almost immediately1 before you have time to use it4 ,push it into the cracks and smooth it off nicely with a table knife4 ,to ,toughen ,lamp ,chimneys and ,glassware4--,immerse the article in a pot filled with cold water1 to which some common salt has been added4 ,boil the water well1 then cool slowly4 ,glass treated in this way will resist any sudden change of temperature4 ,to ,remove ,paint from ,window-,glass4--,rub it well with hot1 sharp vinegar4 ,to ,clean ,stovepipe4--,a piece of zinc put on the live coals in the stove will clean out the stovepipe4 ,to ,brighten ,carpets4--,carpets after the dust has been beaten out may be brightened by scattering upon them cornmeal mixed with salt and then sweeping it off4 ,mix salt and meal in equal proportions4 ,carpets should be thoroughly beaten on the wrong side first and then on the right side1 after which spots may be removed by the use of ox-gall or ammonia and water4 ,to ,keep ,flowers ,fresh exclude them from the air4 ,to do this wet them thoroughly1 put in a damp box1 and cover with wet raw cotton or wet newspaper1 then place in a cool spot4 ,to preserve bouquets1 put a little saltpetre in the water you use for your bouquets1 and the flowers will live for a fortnight4 ,to ,preserve ,brooms4--,dip them for a minute or two in a kettle of boiling suds once a week and they will last much longer1 making them tough and pliable4 ,a carpet wears much longer swept with a broom cared for in this manner4 ,to ,clean ,brassware4--,mix one ounce of oxalic acid1 six ounces of rotten stone1 all in powder1 one ounce of sweet oil1 and sufficient water to make a paste4 ,apply a small proportion1 and rub dry with a flannel or leather4 ,the liquid dip most generally used consists of nitric and sulphuric acids1 but this is more corrosive4 ,to ,keep ,out ,mosquitoes4--,if a bottle of the oil of pennyroyal is left uncorked in a room at night1 not a mosquito1 nor any other blood-sucker1 will be found there in the morning4 ,to ,kill ,cockroaches4--,a teacupful of well bruised plaster of ,paris1 mixed with double the quantity of oatmeal1 to which a little sugar may be added1 although this last named ingredient is not essential4 ,strew it on the floor1 or into the chinks where they frequent4 ,to ,destroy ,ants4--,drop some quicklime on the mouth of their nest1 and wash it with boiling water1 or dissolve some camphor in spirits of wine1 then mix with water1 and pour into their haunts2 or tobacco water1 which has been found effectual4 ,they are averse to strong scents4 ,camphor1 or a sponge saturated with creosote1 will prevent their infesting a cupboard4 ,to prevent their climbing up trees1 place a ring of tar about the trunk1 or a circle of rag moistened occasionally with creosote4 ,to ,prevent ,moths4--,in the month of ,april or ,may1 beat your fur garments well with a small cane or elastic stick1 then wrap them up in linen1 without pressing them too hard1 and put betwixt the folds some camphor in small lumps2 then put your furs in this state in boxes well closed4 ,when the furs are wanted for use1 beat them well as before1 and expose them for twenty-four hours to the air1 which will take away the smell of the camphor4 ,if the fur has long hair1 as bear or fox1 add to the camphor an equal quantity of black pepper in powder4 ,to ,get ,rid of ,moths-- #a4 ,procure shavings of cedar wood1 and inclose in muslin bags1 which can be distributed freely among the clothes4 #b4 ,procure

deposited in woolen cloths1 etc41 use a solution of acetate of potash in spirits of rosemary1 fifteen grains to the pint4 ,bed ,bugs4--,spirits of naphtha rubbed with a small painter's brush into every part of the bedstead is a certain way of getting rid of bugs4 ,the mattress and binding of the bed should be examined1 and the same process attended to1 as they generally harbor more in these parts than in the bedstead4 ,ten cents' worth of naphtha is sufficient for one bed4 ,bug ,poison4--,proof spirit1 one pint2 camphor1 two ounces2 oil of turpentine1 four ounces2 corrosive sublimate1 one ounce4 ,mix4 ,a correspondent says3 ,i have been for a long time troubled with bugs1 and never could get rid of them by any clean and expeditious method1 until a friend told me to suspend a small bag of camphor to the bed1 just in the center1 overhead4 ,i did so1 and the enemy was most effectually repulsed1 and has not made his appearance since--not even for a reconnoissance6 ,this is a simple method of getting rid of these pests1 and is worth a trial to see if it be effectual in other cases4 ,mixture for ,destroying ,flies--,infusion of quassia1 one pint2 brown sugar1 four ounces2 ground pepper1 two ounces4 ,to be well mixed together1 and put in small1 shallow dishes when required4 ,to ,destroy ,flies in a room1 take half a teaspoonful of black pepper in powder1 one teaspoonful of brown sugar1 and one tablespoonful of cream1 mix them well together1 and place them in the room on a plate1 where the flies are troublesome1 and they will soon disappear4 ,to ,drive ,flies from the ,house4--,a good way to rid the house of flies is to saturate small cloths with oil of sassafras and lay them in windows and doors4 ,the flies will soon leave4 ,aging ,oak4--,strong ammonia fumes may be used for aging oak4 ,place the piece to be fumed1 with an evaporating dish containing concentrated ammonia1 in a box1 and close it airtight4 ,leave for #ab hours and finish with a wax polish1

professional demonstrators of phrenology makes it a system of mental philosophy1 besides at the same time presenting a much more popular aspect as a method whereby the disposition1 character and natural aptitude of the individual may be ascertained4 ,illustration3 ,side and front view of a head1 with several numbered areas above the eyes and ears4 ,these two features of the subject are quite distinct from each other1 for1 while it can serve as a reliable guide for reading character only on the assumption of its truth as a philosophic system1 yet the possibility of its practical application does not necessarily follow from the establishment of the truth of its theoretical side4 ,two of the earliest founders of the science of anatomy1 ,erasistratus and ,herophilus1 who lived in the age of ,ptolemy ,soter1 taught that the brain was the seat of sensation and intellect1 and that there was therein a certain degree of localization of function4 ,galen later taught that the brain is the seat of the soul and intellect4 ,from these facts of history the system of phrenology1 though formulated by ,dr4 ,gall1 ,dr4 ,spurzheim1 the ,fowler ,brothers and others1 rests upon deductions derived from the teachings of the demonstrators of anatomy and students of philosophy4 ,the formulated system of phrenology is very generally believed to be a modern expansion of an old empirical philosophy1 but1 according to ,dr4 ,gall's account1 it arose with him as the result of independent observations4 ,the popularity of phrenology has waned in the public mind1 and cultivation of the system is confined to a few enthusiasts1 such as pose as teachers of it as a vocation4 ,these claim that phrenology is a practical and important science and that it rests upon the following principles3 ,first--,that the human brain is the organ of the mind4 ,second--,that the mental powers of man can be analyzed into a definite number of measurably independent faculties4 ,third--,that these faculties are innate1 and each has its seat in a definite region of the brain4 ,fourth--,that the size of each of these regions is the measure of the power of manifesting the faculty associated with it4 ,the faculties and their localities1 as originally constructed by ,dr4 ,gall1 were for the most part identified on slender grounds4 ,his procedure was as follows3 ,having selected the place of a faculty1 he examined the heads of his friends and casts of persons with that peculiarity in common1 and in them sought for the distinctive feature of their characteristic trait4 ,some of his earlier studies were among low associates in jails and lunatic asylums1 and some of the qualities located by him were such as tend to perversion to crime4 ,these he named after their excessive manifestations1 and thus mapped out organs of theft1 murder1 etc4 ,this1 however1 caused the system to be discredited4 ,later his pupil1 ,dr4 ,spurzheim1 claimed that the moral and religious features belonging to it greatly modified these characteristics of ,dr4 ,gall's work4 ,the chart of the human head as invented by ,dr4 ,gall represented #bf organs2 the chart as improved by ,dr4 ,spurzheim makes out #ce organs4 ,this is the chart now generally used and which is shown on a preceding page4 ,the number specifies the location of each organ1 which is followed by its phrenological name1 and classified as follows3 ,propensities4 7#a7 ,amativeness4 7#b7 ,philoprogenitiveness4 7#c7 ,concentrativeness4 7#d7 ,adhesiveness4 7#e7 ,combativeness4 7#f7 ,destructiveness4 7#f;a7 ,alimentiveness4

,causality4 ,the judgment of the phrenologist is determined by the size of the brain in general1 and by the size of the organs that have been formulated1 and these are estimated by certain arbitrary rules that render the boundaries of the regions indefinite4 ,the controversy over phrenology has served undoubtedly the very useful purpose of stimulating research into the anatomy of the brain4 ,it is generally conceded that any psychological theory which correlates brain-action and mental phenomena requires a correspondence between the size of the brain and mental power1 and generally observation shows that the brains of those whose capacities are above the average are larger than those of the general run of their fellow men4 ,a study of the cuts and comparison of the sizes of different heads and their shape will prove very entertaining with most any group of persons intellectually inclined1 and it will be found that persons who are naturally good readers by instinct of human nature can1 with its help1 make remarkable readings in the delineation of character4 ,,principles ,,of ,,parliamentary ,,law4 ,list of ,motions ,arranged ,according to ,their ,purpose and

,it is not a cure1 but in my case gives almost instant relief4 ,take equal parts of powdered stramonium leaves and powdered belladonna leaves and mix thoroughly2 to each ten ounces of the mixture add one ounce of powdered saltpeter 7nitrate of potash72 mix all thoroughly4 ,i always keep some of this in a small tin box4 ,when ,i wish to use it ,i pour a little of the powder into the cover of the box1 light it with a match1 cover the whole with a little paper cone with the point cut off4 ,i place the point of the cone in my mouth1 and breathe the smoke into my lungs with the air4 ,the first trial is very hard2 it almost strangles1 but if persevered in will give great relief4 ,this is much better than stramonium alone4 ,the saltpeter makes it burn freely1 and also helps to give relief4 ,when my home was in ,northern ,indiana1 ,i used to buy the leaves in ,chicago already powdered4 ,now ,i send to ,new ,york4 ,i find it cheaper to do this than to gather and dry the leaves4 ,it is

a cold may be broken up by a timely dose of quinine4 ,when first symptoms make their appearance1 when a little languor1 slight hoarseness and ominous tightening of the nasal membranes follow exposure to draughts or sudden chill by wet1 five grains of this useful alkaloid are sufficient in many cases to end the trouble4 ,but it must be done promptly4 ,if the golden moment passes1 nothing suffices to stop the weary sneezing1 handkerchief-using1 red-nose and woe begone looking periods that certainly follow4 ,a ,mistaken ,idea4 ,the old adage4 ,feed a cold and starve a fever4 is characterized by the ,journal of ,health as very silly advice4 ,if anything1 the reverse would be nearer right4 ,when a person has a severe cold it is best for him to eat very lightly1 especially during the first few days of the attack4 ,hints on ,bathing4 ,there has been a great deal written about bathing4 ,the surface of the skin is punctured with millions of little holes called pores4 ,the duty of these pores is to carry the waste matter off4 ,for instance1 perspiration4 ,now1 if these pores are stopped up they are of no use1 and the body has to find some other way to get rid of its impurities4 ,then the liver has more than it can do4 ,then we take a liver pill when we ought to clean out the pores instead4 ,the housewife is very particular to keep her sieves in good order2 after she has strained a substance through them they are washed out carefully with water1 because water is the best thing known4 ,that is the reason water is used to bathe in4 ,but the skin is a little different from a sieve1 because it is willing to help along the process itself4 ,all it needs is a little encouragement and it will accomplish wonders4 ,what the skin wants is rubbing4 ,if you should quietly sit down in a tub of water and as quietly get up and dry off without rubbing1 your skin wouldn't be much benefited4 ,the water would make it a little soft1 especially if it was warm4 ,but rubbing is the great thing4 ,stand where the sunlight strikes a part of your body1 then take a dry brush and rub it1 and you will notice that countless little flakes of cuticle fly off4 ,every time one of these flakes is removed from the skin your body breathes a sigh of relief4 ,an eminent ,german authority contends that too much bathing is a bad thing4 ,there is much truth in this4 ,soap and water are good things to soften up the skin1 but rubbing is what the skin wants4 ,every morning or every evening1 or when it is most convenient1 wash the body all over with water and a little ammonia1 or anything which tends to make the water soft2 then rub dry with a towel1 and after that go over the body from top to toe with a dry brush4 ,try this for two or three weeks1 and your skin will be like velvet4 ,tea and ,coffee4 ,tea is a nerve stimulant1 pure and simple1 acting like alcohol in this respect1 without any value that the latter may possess as a retarder of waste4 ,it has a special influence upon those nerve centers that supply will power1 exalting their sensibility beyond normal activity1 and may even produce hysterical symptoms1 if carried far enough4 ,its active principle1 theine1 is an exceedingly powerful drug1 chiefly employed by nerve specialists as a pain destroyer1 possessing the singular quality of working toward the surface4 ,that is to say1 when a dose is administered hypodermically for sciatica1 for example1 the narcotic influence proceeds outward from the point of injection1 instead of inward toward the centers1 as does that of morphia1 atropia1 etc4 ,tea is totally devoid of nutritive value1 and the habit of drinking it to excess1 which so many ,american women indulge in1 particularly in the country1 is to be deplored as a cause of our ,american nervousness4 ,coffee1 on the contrary1 is a nerve food4 ,like other concentrated foods of its class1 it operates as a stimulant also1 but upon a different set of nerves from tea4 ,taken strong in the morning1 it often produces dizziness and that peculiar visual symptom of overstimulus which is called muscae volilantes--dancing flies4 ,but this is an improper way to take it1 and rightly used it is perhaps the most valuable liquid addition to the morning meal4 ,its active principle1 caffeine1 differs in all physiological respects from theine1 while it is chemically very closely allied1 and its limited consumption makes it impotent for harm4 ,to ,straighten ,round ,shoulders4 ,a stooping figure and a halting gait1 accompanied by the unavoidable weakness of lungs incidental to a narrow chest1 may be entirely cured by the very simple and easily-performed exercise of raising one's self upon the toes leisurely in a perpendicular position several times daily4 ,to take this exercise properly one must take a perfectly upright position4 ,with the heels together and the toes at an angle of forty-five degrees4 ,then drop the arms lifelessly by the sides1 animating and raising the chest to its full capacity and muscularity1 the chin well drawn in1 and the crown of the head feeling as if attached to a string suspended from the ceiling above4 ,slowly rise upon the balls of both feet to the greatest possible height1 thereby exercising all the muscles of the legs and body2 come again into standing position without swaying the body backward out of the perfect line4 ,repeat this same exercise1 first on one foot1 then on the other4 ,it is wonderful what a straightening-out power this exercise has upon round shoulders and crooked backs1 and one will be surprised to note how soon the lungs begin to show the effect of such expansive development4 ,care of the ,eyes4 ,in consequence of the increase of affections of the eye1 a specialist has recently formulated the following rules to be observed in the care of the eyes for school work3 ,a comfortable temperature1 dry and warm feet1 good ventilation2 clothing at the neck and on other parts of the body loose2 posture erect1 and never read lying down or stooping4 ,little study before breakfast or directly after a heavy meal2 none at all at twilight or late at night2 use great caution about studying after recovery from fevers2 have light abundant1 but not dazzling1 not allowing the sun to shine on desks or on objects in front of the scholars1 and letting the light come from the left hand or left and rear2 hold book at right angles to the line of sight or nearly so2 give eyes frequent rest by looking up4 ,the distance of the book from the eye should be about fifteen inches4 ,the usual indication of strain is redness of the rim of the eyelid1 betokening a congested state of the inner surface1 which may be accompanied with some pain4 ,when the eye tires easily rest is not the proper remedy1 but the use of glasses of sufficient power to aid in accommodating the eye to vision4 ,how and ,when to ,drink ,water4 ,according to ,doctor ,leuf1 when water is taken into the full or partly full stomach1 it does not mingle with the food1 as we are taught1 but passes along quickly between the food and lesser curvature toward the pylorus1 through which it passes into the intestines4 ,the secretion of mucus by the lining membrane is constant1 and during the night a considerable amount accumulates in the stomach2 some of its liquid portion is absorbed1 and that which remains is thick and tenacious4 ,if food is taken into the stomach when in this condition1 it becomes coated with this mucus1 and the secretion of the gastric juice and its action are delayed4 ,these facts show the value of a goblet of water before breakfast4 ,this washes out the tenacious mucus1 and stimulates the gastric glands to secretion4 ,in old and feeble persons water should not be taken cold1 but it may be with great advantage taken warm or hot4 ,this removal of the accumulated mucus from the stomach is probably one of the reasons why taking soup at the beginning of a meal has been found so beneficial4 ,what ,causes ,coughs4 ,cold and coughs are prevalent throughout the country1 but throat affections are by far more common among business men4 ,every unfortunate one mutters something about the abominable weather and curses the piercing wind4 ,much of the trouble1 however1 is caused by overheated rooms1 and a little more attention to proper ventilation would remove the cause of suffering4 ,doctor ,j4 ,ewing ,mears1 who was thus afflicted1 said to an inquirer3 ,the huskiness and loss of power of articulation so common among us are largely due to the use of steam for heating4 ,the steam cannot be properly regulated1 and the temperature becomes too high4 ,a person living in this atmosphere has all the cells of the lungs open1 and when he passes into the open air he is unduly exposed4 ,the affliction is quite common among the men who occupy offices in the new buildings which are fitted up with all modern improvements4 ,the substitution of electric light for gas has wrought a change to which people have not yet adapted themselves4 ,the heat arising from a number of gas jets will quickly raise the temperature of a room1 and unconsciously people rely upon that means of heating to some extent4 ,very little warmth1 however1 is produced by the electric light1 and when a man reads by an incandescent light he at times finds himself becoming chilly1 and wonders why it is4 ,too hot during the day and too cold at night are conditions which should be avoided4 ,,physical ,,exercise4 ,the principal methods of developing the physique now prescribed by trainers are exercise with dumbbells1 the bar bell and the chest weight4 ,the rings and horizontal and parallel bars are also used1 but not nearly to the extent that they formerly were4 ,the movement has been all in the direction of the simplification of apparatus2 in fact1 one well-known teacher of the ,boston ,gymnasium when asked his opinion said3 ,four bare walls and a floor1 with a well-posted instructor1 is all that is really required for a gymnasium4 ,probably the most important as well as the simplest appliance for gymnasium work is the wooden dumbbell1 which has displaced the ponderous iron bell of former days4 ,its weight is from three-quarters of a pound to a pound and a half1 and with one in each hand a variety of motions can be gone through1 which are of immense benefit in building up or toning down every muscle and all vital parts of the body4 ,the first object of an instructor in taking a beginner in hand is to increase the circulation4 ,this is done by exercising the extremities1 the first movement being one of the hands1 after which come the wrists1 then the arms1 and next the head and feet4 ,as the circulation is increased the necessity for a larger supply of oxygen1 technically called oxygen-hunger1 is created1 which is only satisfied by breathing exercises1 which develop the lungs4 ,after the circulation is in a satisfactory condition1 the dumbbell instructor turns his attention to exercising the great muscles of the body1 beginning with those of the back1 strengthening which holds the body erect1 thus increasing the chest capacity1 invigorating the digestive organs1 and1 in fact1 all the vital functions4 ,by the use of very light weights an equal and symmetrical development of all parts of the body is obtained1 and then there are no sudden demands on the heart and lungs4 ,after the dumbbell comes exercise with the round1 or bar bell4 ,this is like the dumbbell1 with the exception that the bar connecting the balls is four or five feet1 instead of a few inches in length4 ,bar bells weigh from one to two pounds each and are found most useful in building up the respiratory and digestive systems1 their especial province being the strengthening of the erector muscles and increasing the flexibility of the chest4 ,of all fixed apparatus in use the pulley weight stands easily first in importance4 ,these weights are available for a greater variety of objects than any other gymnastic appliance1 and can be used either for general exercise or for strengthening such muscles as most require it4 ,with them a greater localization is possible than with the dumbbell1 and for this reason they are recommended as a kind of supplement to the latter4 ,as chest developers and correctors of round shoulders they are most effective4 ,as the name implies1 they are simply weights attached to ropes1 which pass over pulleys1 and are provided with handles4 ,the common pulley is placed at about the height of the shoulder of an average man1 but recently those which can be adjusted to any desired height have been very generally introduced4 ,when more special localization is desired than can be obtained by means of the ordinary apparatus1 what is known as the double-action chest weight is used4 ,this differs from the ordinary kind in being provided with several pulleys1 so that the strain may come at different angles4 ,double-action weights may be divided into three classes--high1 low1 and side pulleys--each with its particular use4 ,the highest of all1 known as the giant pulleys1 are made especially for developing the muscles of the back and chest1 and by stretching or elongating movements to increase the interior capacity of the chest4 ,if the front of the chest is full and the back or side chest deficient1 the pupil is set to work on the giant pulley4 ,to build up the side-walls he stands with the back to the pulley-box and the left heel resting against it2 the handle is grasped in the right hand if the right side of the chest is lacking in development1 and then drawn straight down by the side2 a step forward with the right foot1 as long as possible1 is taken1 the line brought as far to the front and near the floor as can be done1 and then the arm1 held stiff1 allowed to be drawn solely up by the weight4 ,to exercise the left side the same process is gone through with1 the handle grasped in the left hand4 ,another kind of giant pulley is that which allows the operator to stand directly under it1 and is used for increasing the lateral diameter of the chest4 ,the handles are drawn straight down by the sides1 the arms are then spread and drawn back by the weights4 ,generally speaking1 high pulleys are most used for correcting high1 round shoulders2 low pulleys for low1 round shoulders2 side pulleys for individual high or low shoulders1 and giant pulleys for the development of the walls of the chest and to correct spinal curvature4 ,the traveling rings1 a line of iron rings1 covered with rubber and attached to long ropes fastened to the ceiling some ten feet apart1 are also valuable in developing the muscles of the back1 arms and sides4 ,the first ring is grasped in one hand and a spring taken from an elevated platform4 ,the momentum carries the gymnast to the next ring1 which is seized with the free hand1 and so the entire length of the line is traversed4 ,the parallel bars1 low and high1 the flying rings1 the horizontal bar and the trapeze all have their uses1 but of late years they have been relegated to a position of distinct inferiority to that now occupied by the dumbbells and pulley weights4 ,,accidents ,,and ,,emergencies4 ,what ,to ,do ,if an artery is cut1 red blood spurts4 ,compress it above the wound4 ,if a vein is cut1 dark blood flows4 ,compress it below and above4 ,if choked1 go upon all fours and cough4 ,for slight burns1 dip the part in cold water2 if the skin is destroyed1 cover with varnish or linseed oil4 ,for apoplexy1 raise the head and body2 for fainting1 lay the person flat4 ,send for a physician when a serious accident of any kind occurs1 but treat as directed until he arrives4 ,scalds and ,burns--,the following facts cannot be too firmly impressed on the mind of the reader1 that in either of these accidents the first1 best1 and often the only remedies required1 are sheets of wadding1 fine wool1 or carded cotton1 and1 in the default of these1 violet powder1 flour1 magnesia1 or chalk4 ,the object for which these several articles are employed is the same in each instance2 namely1 to exclude the air from the injured part2 for if the air can be effectually shut out from the raw surface1 and care is taken not to expose the tender part till the new cuticle is formed1 the cure may be safely left to nature4 ,the moment a person is called to a case of scald or burn1 he should cover the part with a sheet1 or a portion of a sheet1 of wadding1 taking care not to break any blister that may have formed1 or stay to remove any burnt clothes that may adhere to the surface1 but as quickly as possible envelop every part of the injury from all access of the air1 laying one or two more pieces of wadding on the first1 so as effectually to guard the burn or scald from the irritation of the atmosphere2 and if the article used is wool or cotton1 the same precaution1 of adding more material where the surface is thinly covered1 must be adopted2 a light bandage finally securing all in their places4 ,any of the popular remedies recommended below may be employed when neither wool1 cotton1 nor wadding are to be procured1 it being always remembered that that article which will best exclude the air from a burn or scald is the best1 quickest1 and least painful mode of treatment4 ,and in this respect nothing has surpassed cotton loose or attached to paper as in wadding4 ,if the ,skin is ,much ,injured in burns1 spread some linen pretty thickly with chalk ointment1 and lay over the part1 and give the patient some brandy and water if much exhausted2 then send for a medical man4 ,if not much injured1 and very painful1 use the same ointment1 or apply carded cotton dipped in lime water and linseed oil4 ,if you please1 you may lay cloths dipped in ether over the parts1 or cold lotions4 ,treat scalds in same manner1 or cover with scraped raw potato2 but the chalk ointment is the best4 ,in the absence of all these1 cover the injured part with treacle1 and dust over it plenty of flour4 ,,body ,,in ,,flames--,lay the person down on the floor of the room1 and throw the table cloth1 rug1 or other large cloth over him1 and roll him on the floor4 ,,dirt ,,in ,,the ,,eye--,place your forefinger upon the cheek-bone1 having the patient before you2 then slightly bend the finger1 this will draw down the lower lid of the eye1 and you will probably be able to remove the dirt2 but if this will not enable you to get at it1 repeat this operation while you have a knitting-needle or bodkin placed over the eyelid2 this will turn it inside out1 and enable you to remove the sand1 or eyelash1 etc41 with the corner of a fine silk handkerchief4 ,as soon as the substance is removed1 bathe the eye with cold water1 and exclude the light for a day4 ,if the inflammation is severe1 let the patient use a refrigerant lotion4 ,,lime ,,in ,,the ,,eve--,syringe it well with warm vinegar and water in the proportion of one ounce of vinegar to eight ounces of water2 exclude light4 ,,iron ,,or ,,steel ,,spiculae ,,in ,,the ,,eye--,these occur while turning iron or steel in a lathe1 and are best remedied by doubling back the upper or lower eyelid according to the situation of the substance1 and with the flat edge of a silver probe1 taking up the metallic particle1 using a lotion made by dissolving six grains of sugar of lead and the same of white vitriol1 in six ounces of water1 and bathing the eye three times a day till the inflammation subsides4 ,another plan is--,drop a solution of sulphate of copper 7from one to three grains of salt to one ounce of water7 into the eye1 or keep the eye open in a wineglassful of the solution4 ,bathe with cold lotion1 and exclude light to keep down inflammation4 ,,dislocated ,,thumb--,this is frequently produced by a fall4 ,make a clove hitch1 by passing two loops of cord over the thumb1 placing a piece of rag under the cord to prevent it cutting the thumb2 then pull in the same line as the thumb4 ,afterwards apply a cold lotion4 ,,cuts ,,and ,,wounds--,clean cut wounds whether deep or superficial1 and likely to heal by the first intention1 should always be washed or cleaned1 and at once evenly and smoothly closed by bringing both edges close together and securing them in that position by adhesive plaster4 ,cut thin strips of sticking plaster1 and bring the parts together2 or1 if large and deep1 cut two broad pieces1 so as to look like the teeth of a comb1 and place one on each side of the wound1 which must be cleaned previously4 ,these pieces must be arranged so that they shall interlace one another2 then1 by laying hold of the pieces on the right side with one hand1 and those on the other side with the other hand and pulling them from one another1 the edges of the wounds are brought together without any difficulty4 ,ordinary ,cuts are dressed by thin strips1 applied by pressing down the plaster on one side of the wound1 and keeping it there1 and pulling in the opposite direction2 then suddenly depressing the hand when the edges of the wound are brought together4 ,,contusions are best healed by laying a piece of folded lint1 well wetted with extract of lead or boracic acid1 on the part1 and1 if there is much pain1 placing a hot bran poultice over the dressing1 repeating both if necessary every1 two hours4 ,when the injuries are very severe lay a cloth over the part1 and suspend a basin over it filled with cold lotion4 ,put a piece of cotton into the basin1 so that it shall allow the lotion to drop on the cloth1 and thus keep it always wet4 ,,hemorrhage1 when caused by an artery being divided or torn1 may be known by the blood issuing out of the wound in leaps or jerks1 and being of a bright scarlet color4 ,if a vein is injured1 the blood is darker and flows continuously4 ,to arrest the latter apply pressure by means of a compress and bandage4 ,to arrest arterial bleeding1 get a piece of wood 7part of a broom handle will do71 and tie a piece of tape to one end of it4 ,then tie a piece of tape loosely over the arm1 and pass the other end of the wood under it2 twist the stick around and around until the tape compresses the arm sufficiently to arrest the bleeding1 and then confine the other end by tying the string around the arm4 ,a compress made by enfolding a penny piece in several folds of lint or linen should1 however1 be first placed under the tape and over the artery1 ,if the bleeding is very obstinate1 and it occurs in the arm1 place a cork underneath the string1 on the inside of the fleshy part1 where the artery may be felt beating by any one2 if in the leg1 place a cork in the direction of a line drawn from the inner part of the knee toward the outer part of the groin4 ,it is an excellent thing to accustom yourself to find out the position of these arteries1 or1 indeed1 any that are superficial1 and to explain to every person in your house where they are1 and how to stop bleeding4 ,if a stick cannot be got1 take a handkerchief1 make a cord bandage of it1 and tie a knot in the middle2 the knot acts as a compress1 and should be placed over the artery1 while the two ends are c around the thumb4 ,observe always to place the ligature between the wound and the heart4 ,putting your finger into a bleeding wound1 and making pressure until a surgeon arrives1 will generally stop violent bleeding4 ,,bleeding ,,from ,,the ,,nose1 from whatever cause1 may generally be stopped by putting a plug of lint into the nostrils2 if this does not do1 apply a cold lotion to the forehead2 raise the head1 and place over it both arms1 so that it will rest on the hands2 dip the lint plug1 slightly moistened1 into some powdered gum arabic1 and plug the nostrils again2 or dip the plug into equal parts of powdered gum arabic and alum1 and plug the nose4 ,or the plug may be dipped in ,friar's balsam1 or tincture of kino4 ,heat should be applied to the feet2 and1 in obstinate cases1 the sudden shock of a cold key1 or cold water poured down the spine1 will often instantly stop the bleeding4 ,if the bowels are confined1 take a purgative4 ,injections of alum solution from a small syringe into the nose will often stop hemorrhage4 ,,violent ,,shocks will sometimes stun a person1 and he will remain unconscious4 ,untie strings1 collars1 etc42 loosen anything that is tight and interferes with the breathing2 raise the head2 see if there is bleeding from any part2 apply smelling-salts to the nose1 and hot bottles to the feet4 ,,in ,,concussion1 the surface of the body is cold and pale1 and the pulse weak and small1 the breathing slow and gentle1 and the pupil of the eye generally contracted or small4 ,you can get an answer by speaking loud1 so as to arouse the patient4 ,give a little brandy and water1 keep the place quiet1 apply warmth1 and do not raise the head too high4 ,if you tickle the feet1 the patient feels it4 ,,in ,,compression ,,of ,,the ,,brain from any cause1 such as apoplexy1 or a piece of fractured bone pressing on it1 there is loss of sensation4 ,if you tickle the feet of the injured person he does not feel it4 ,you cannot arouse him so as to get an answer4 ,the pulse is slow and labored2 the breathing deep1 labored1 and snorting2 the pupil enlarged4 ,raise the head1 loosen strings or tight things1 and send for a surgeon4 ,if one cannot be got at once1 apply mustard poultices to the feet and thighs1 leeches to the temples1 and hot water to the feet4 ,,choking--,when a person has a fish bone in the throat1 insert the forefinger1 press upon the root of the tongue1 so as to induce vomiting2 if this does not do1 let him swallow a large piece of potato or soft bread2 and if these fail1 give a mustard emetic1 ,,fainting1 ,,hysterics1 ,,etc4--,loosen the garments1 bathe the temples with water or eau-de-,cologne2 open the window1 admit plenty of fresh air1 dash cold water on the face1 apply hot bricks to the feet1 and avoid bustle and excessive sympathy4 ,,drowning4--,attend to the following essential rules3 #a4 ,lose no time4 #b4 ,handle the body gently4 #c4 ,carry the body face downward1 with the head gently raised1 and never hold it up by the feet4 #d4 ,send for medical assistance immediately1 and in the meantime act as follows3 #e4 ,strip the body2 rub it dry1 then wrap it in hot blankets1 and place it in a warm bed in a warm room4 #f4 ,cleanse away the froth and mucus from the nose and month4 #g4 ,apply warm bricks1 bottles1 bags of sand1 etc4 to the armpits1 between the thighs1 and to the soles of the feet4 #h4 ,rub the
