DIZZY SPEU,S. Edward Happ, of TitusviJle, Pa., lind such pain iu the

FOOD, WATER AND AIR.
The Eaiirntlnl Thing Out of Which
Blood la Made.
These uiv the thing! out of which
blood Is inside, if the food Is nutri
tious mid properly cooked, If the air is
pure u ml full of oxygen, if the water
is don n and free from impurities, the
blood will bo rich and red and full of
vitality.
Hnrrinjr physical accidents, there is
no sickness except that depending di
rectly upon a want of food or water
or nir, sometimes all three. When any
one is sick the presumption is that lie
has been trying to subsist on poor
food or vitiated air or bail water, one
or more.
In order to have good food a person
ought to have the first eating of it.
Food that has been mussed over nnd
left by one person is not tit to be eaten
by another.
In order to have good air a person
ought to have the first breathing of it.
Air that has been breathed by other
persons is not lit to breathe again.
Water should be fresh from some
spring or well. If hydrant water must
be used let it run a bit. as the house
pipes are apt to be of lead and not
I rmi like the pipes that convoy the wa
ter through the city.
Food that is relished, air that cools
mid invigorates, water that is quaffed
with eager thirst these are the things
that make blond. Put fresli air into
the lungs, gdiid food and pure water
into the stomach, and nature will do
11m rest. Medical TnlU.

litting the rim of the glass. Hold the
bases of the glasses firmly down, the
top rims touching each other. Now,

glass. With a little practice this can
be done every time. He careful to
blow in a line witli the left hand glass,

astrous results.

IN MEMORY OF BILL NYE.
Movement Afoot to Erect a Monument
Over the Humorltt'a Grave.
Asheville, N. C. Dec. 14. The gra79
of Bill Nye, the famous humorist who
tiled nearly eight years ago and was
buried at Arden, near here, la un
marked, and a movement is afoot to
have a granite monument erected
above his resting place. The North
Carolina division of the Sunshine so
ciety is raising the fund.
When Nye passed away his devoted
widow placed a memorial window In
Calvary Episcopal church, near br,
but her plans for a more fitting mem
orial were frustrated by the failure,
soon after Mr. Nye's death, of banks
in which practically all the fortune
left her by her husband had been de
posited. At present a little tree li
growing at the head of the grave, and
enterprise, and contributions are be
borne one has laid upon the mound a
rude piece of stone picked up on the
highway. Other marks there are none.
Mrs. J. M. Ransler, president of th
Sunshine society. Hendersonvllle. N.
C. Is the active head of the memorial
vlted from the friends of Nye through
out the country. They should be ad
dressed to Battery Park bank. Ashe

On one occasion Disraeli's hiiblt of
exaggerated adulation led to so bold mi
attempt by the fair recipient to turn It
to her advantage that he was driven to
save the situation In u way that was
very far from Udng appreciated. The
charmer, a young lady of "advanced
views," finding the great man so ex
ceedingly profuse In his attentions,
thought It an excellent opportunity for
making him a convert to her Utopian
ideals, which were of the most daringly
democratic order. After u' long recita
tion of her propaganda she wound up
with a fervid appeal to the prime min
ister to Immortalize hluisclf by espous
ing her ingenious piuiiu-ea for remedy
ing the wrongs of humanity. As she
finished her Impassioned harangue,
with flushed cheeks and flashing eye,
Disraeli, who bad been silently watch

dropped his eyeglass and softly mur

About the same time Peter of t'ole

In many cases when u bridge was

The Eskimo are the greatest ()f all
mask makers. During their religious
ceremonials they lniersoniito their own
various gods, wearing masks for th'
purpose, but the most curious thing Is
that they wear little masks on their
fingers as well as big ones lo cover
their faces. These finger masks, the
like of which are unknown anywhere
else In the world, usually represent the
sun. They are of wood, carved with a
laughing or weeping face, and the rays
of the sun are represented by white
hair from the 1 icily of the wild rein
deer set around as a fringe. The sun is
the most ImiHirtant of tin Eskimos' di
vinities, and the principal object of the
winter ceremonial Is to persuade the
sun god to come back from the south.

The straight line Is an abomination
to the Chinese. They endeavor to
avoid It in their streets nnd buildings
and have banished it completely where
country Held paths are concerned.
They will always substitute a curve
whenever possible, or they will torture
it into a zigzag.
In districts not subject to the Intlu
ence of the foreigner the bouses and
temples are characterized !y curved,
often peaked, roofs, oriuifucntcd with
fantastic modifications of the "myriad
stroke pattern." The Inhabitants of
such regions are soon found to have a
mental world to correspond. The
straight line Is scouted. They think In
curves and zigzags. To the Chinese
mind the straight line Is suggestive of
death and demons. It belongs not to
the heaven above or to the earth be
neatli. In a true horizon line are seen
the "undulation of the dragon." There
fore, argue the Chinese, the straight
line pertains to hades.-Contemporary
