A ru-rvoua wnkeful child, Is
tiio muterlal out of which h nor
touh, wakeful adult Is matin. It
in undoubtedly a fnct that tho
loiindaMonn for many rase! tlmt
develop Into chronic nervous de
bility, ore laid In Infancy or early
childhood. Hereditary, of courno,
plays Homo part. Many children are
born with weakened nonci, but It Is
hIko true, that nervous children aro
tho product, largely, of Injudicious
management. A baby, nt birth, Is
plastic material. It can be trained
to habits of sleeping and feeJIng at
proper times, or at Improper times.
Wakefulness at night Is quite of
ten occasioned by physical discom
fort, but conditions of physical difc
(omfort are largely preventable, lu
ll gestlon as a result of overfeeding,
cello which may arise from Improper
food, wrinkled, wet or tight clothing,
cold feet, a room that Is too warm or
br.dly ventilated all these muy help
to produce a reBtless baby. In Bum
mer, especially, a baby who sleeps
with its parents Is liable to be too
verm. A cool, clean crib of Its own,
will mean more comfortable nights
for all concerned.
With older children tho cause of
wakefulness may sometimes be found
In the excitement of an evening frolic
with parents, or too active, exciting
lays with children Into In the after
noon or evening. There are certain
Icrms of plays common with children,
wtlrh produce In a child of a ner
ous temperament, the same train of
rymptcms that are liable to follow
iLte hours or dissipation where adults
ire concerned.
After an afternoon of hard playing,
which Is as exhausting lu a child as
hrd mental or physical exerc'.Be In
a grown person, a child, under the
resulting nervous excitement, Is vi-ry
pt to Indulge In a too hearty even
ing meal. The process of digestion Is
unfinished r.t bedtime and that a one
may give rise to Insomnia.
In the other hand a poorly nour
ished child Is almost certain to ba
a necvl.sh, wakeful child and a Uttla
care In dieting, choosing easily di
gested, nourishing fcods mrfy lufflca
to effect a complete cure.
The custom of telling stories to
children In the evening or after tiey
are In bed Is another thing Unit tends
to wakefulness. Instead of (lu'.ei'.n.;
ths little listeners, the evening story
ofun Et:tnui.te3 their mind to fur
ther activity. If the evening is the
time chosen for stories, the fiery
should be of tha sleepy, uninteresting
drowsy type, with nothing In partic
ular which is likely to slay lous iu
ttivs child's mind.
Keeping u llfeht burning !u a room
Invariably tends to wakefulness.
Ssnie hours of complete dar!-:r.LS3 !s
ts nscetsary for the growing tLU ! us
for the growing plant.
A thorough heating of the feet lo-
lor; going to bed ls'dosiiuble, and a
warm brick or hot water bottle we' I
wrapped to tho feet often hl;;n the
child as well as the adu'.t to drop u.T
to sleep quickly. A drink of hot
milk sipped slowly, with a cracker, Is
another simple remedy that has prov
en very effectual.
Th restless baby may develop Into
a very well behaved child if his bath
hour Is changed from morning to
evening and he gets his clothing on
straight, smooth and comfortable, be-
tore putting him to bed. With a very
nervous, wakeful older child, ge'itla
sponging down the spinal column
with water as hot as can bo borne Is
a procedure that assists In promoting
healthy sleep.
llov to Look Pretty In a Photograph,
A curious fact relative to a wom
an's personality is that the two sides
of her face are not In accord with
the other. In other words, every
oman has two faces, and one shows
certain characteristics which the oth
r does not, and each contradicts the
ether.
The left slda is nearly always the
prettier, although It would take a
ry keen eye to discern any differ
ence; but it Is worth whllo to ra-
member this when posing for one's
Photograph.
The moral of this Is obvious. Tho
The left side of the face showing to
tar better advantage than the right
tt is everyone's duty to keep the good
ido turned toward an observer.

summer girl's wardrobe, though they
are not necessarily expensive1.
Made like a sailor blouse, though

beneath a lifted glrdi.1 of Its own

ommended very highly. The collrr

A PRETTY BLOUSK IN SOFT SILK,
with n broad plait trimmed with
fancy buttons. There are sleeves of
pongeo reaching almost to the el
bows and under these fall fuller
sleeves of a net guimpe trimmed
with soit cream colored lace. As
the neck Is cut moderately low and
tho sleeves reach almost to the el
bow the gown car. be worn without
the guimpe with utmost propriety.
The smooth variety of pongee la
preferred to the rough for separate
waists, and a linen collar and tie of
bright hue accompanying a wa'.st In
natural color pongee Is a handsome
combination.
All About a Hook.
"Will you please take that book
out of this seat?"
"What for?"
"I d like to sit down there."
"I'lent) of other seats In this car,
re there not?"
"Yes. sir, but this happens to be
the one 1 want."
"Just so."
(Pause.)
"Will you take that book out cf
this seat?"
"No, sir."
"You will not?"
"I will not."
"1 tnink It's hoggish tor a man to
pile h!s baggage on the seat alongside
of him."
(Another pause.)
"Once more, will you take that
book out of this seat?"
"Once more, sir, no."
"Then I'll throw It out of the win
dow." "I advise you not to do It."
"So?"
"Yes; you might got yourself Into
trouble."
Ily the way of reply the Irate pas
senger picked up the offending hook
and hurled it through the open win
dew. "Now, sir," he demanded, "what
are you going to da about It?"
"Nothing. The look U-rt i.lu.."
"Whose Is It?"
"1 think It belongs to that husky
looking fellow In the other end cf

THE COLUMBIAN,
A PRonljEI OP MORROWINO.
Two Women nnd a Down Egg Ihilsfl
a Puzzling Question.
History as It Is written In Pratt,
Kan., is to the effect that Inst win
ter one woman tnere borrowed of
another a dozen eggs, then worth
thrice fortunate Pratt, Kan.! 24
rents.
Recently the borrower d'Ai-rmlned,
whether with assistance or not his
tory conceals to return the eggs 'and
tarried to her neighbor's house a
dozen ns good as those that had he-en
tnKen thence. Hut the neighbor re
fused to take them In extinguish
ment of her claim. Tho price of eggs
nhe paid, had fallen with tho ap
proach of spring, and It was then
only 12 cents per dozen. Therefore
she wanted not one dozen, but two,
and for no less would she call the
transaction equitably closed.
Then there was trouble. The
first woman Insisted that she had
borrowed, not bought, the eggs, and
that considerations of money value
did not and should not enter Into the
matter at all. This the second wom
an denied, repeatedly, and the dozen
eggs were taken home after much or.
atory, and a few tears equally divid
ed between grief and rage. Now
all tho other women In the vicinity
have taken up the quarrel, and, still
according to history, the question as
to whether the borrower or lender Is
right, has become an Important Issue
In local politics so Important that
tho spring election In Pratt, Kan.,
turns on It, according to - the New
York Times, which adds that borrow
ing except when conducted on strict
business principles, is an evil prac
tice, exceeded as a destroyer of
friendship only by out-and-out theft.
Too .Much Much and Too Little.
Mr. Benson of the London Times,
in his extremely Interesting account
.it the Younghusband expedition In
to Thibet, gives some remarkable
facts about the carrying power of
men who were employed to do the
heavy work of the Journey.
According to his account thous
ands of coolies were used. The pay
was per pound, and the average
Irisd was 80 to 90 pounds to the
man. Soue, however, carried dou
ble and even three tlmss the aver
age. In order to earn extra compen
sation. Mr. Benson tells of one Hin
doo coolie who carried a piece of
machinery weighing 075 pounds up
the mountain slope, making his way
from bowlder to bowlder with this
almost Incredible load on his back.
As a contrast Mr. Benson calls atten
tion to the fact that the Kngllsh
trade unions will not allow p work
man to carry a load of more than 14
pour.us. It his tools or the material
weigh more tnan that he must have a
helper. It may well be asked If this
kind of civilization Is going to work
tavcrahly to the proper development
or the Individual. Tho man with his
plain food and the full exercise ol
his musclo will be apt to produce
fturdler stock "han the one who Is
limited by re'es that would seem ton
mild lor children. There Is no In
tention of comparing coolie and skill.
Ed labor, but there Is a very nice
question of Influence upon tho right
progress of tho race.
The Color of Good Meat.
The color of good meat, as every
body knows, Is red and not dark col
ored. The layers of fat between the
IT) res of which the flesh Is composed,
give It a marbled aspect. Veal and
pork are of a lighter color than boef
or mutton.
The odor of good fresh meat Is
pleasant enough, and a chemical test
con he applied to the meat Juice
which la of an acid character, so that
If blue litmus paper Is soaked in it
the paper Is turned to a red hue. Thlg
test applies to meat which Is too old
or of a had quality, will result In tho
blue litmus paper retaining Its origi
nal color.
Varnished Wall Puper.
Varnished wall paper should never
be cleaned by rubbing with a flannel
or cloth. Procure a good, soft white
wash brush, which can be bought at
any oil ston;, then have a buckei of
clean, soft warm water, In which yel
low foap has been lathered. Dip
brush Into water, slightly squeeze it
nnd commence rubbing gently from
the bottom of the paper, working
upward. You will thus have paper
free from smears and the varnish un
injured. Medicines are made almost abso
lutely taBeless, according to a new
! Uerman process.
