3Inn anil His Pockets
A tailor who had received an order
for a suit of clothes was asked by the
customers wife for an interview
I want to ask you as a special fa
vor she said not to put any pockets
in my husbands clothes
Why not asked the astonished
tailor
Because they are responsible for
his looking so shabby so much of the
time ehe explained He wears his
clothes for weeks without pressing be
cause he says it is too much trouble to
change the things in his pockets to an
other suit fie says that half the men
who go around in seedy clothes do so
for the same reason If that is so just
leave out the pockets and they will
have no excuse for shabbiuess
That is a new point of view said
the tailor I will see about it
But when the suit came home it had
the usual number of pockets New

Hoiv FrostlIte Conies
The first effect of cold on the skin is
to contract the tiny vessels that connect
arteries and veins Arteries are ves
sels that take blood from the heart
Veins are those that bring blood back
to the heart and the connecting ves
sels are called capillaries While these
little vessels are contracting the skin
itself becomes tenser In a few mo
ments or minutes the effects change
The tiny nerves whose stimulation
caused contraction of the capillaries
are more or less paralyzed and the ves
sels dilate so the skin gets red Soon
the veins are dilated and the skin be
comes bluish Then the nutrient fluid
in the skin the lymph is coagulated
and the stretched skin ruptures or
chaps If the cold is more severe its
action -is deeper and the blood itself
may be coagulated This is frostbite
Ant Bittlis
Persons who are troubled with rheu
matism in Russia take ant baths as a
cure It is done in this way by the
peasants near Moscow Finding an
ants nest he puts Into a linen bag the
ants their eggs and necessarily consid
erable dirt Returning to the home he
plunges into the hot water of the bath
his bag of ants which he has previous
ly fastened tightly at the mouth After
Beveral minutes the water gives off a
very stroug penetrating odortof formic
acid The bath is now read- and the
invalid is put Into it Such a bath has
a very active irritant action on the
skin being in fact a counter irritation
that causes the rheumatic pains to dis

Venezuelan Cowboys
When the Venezuelan cowboy wishes
to catch a bull or cow for branding or
for any purpose he rides alongside It
and with horse and bovine on the
dead run stoops from his saddle
grasps the croatures tail and with a
sharp peculiar twist sends the animal
rolling on its back From the force
with which it falls the creatures
horns almost invariably pin its head
to the ground giving the vaquero time
to dismount and sit on its head hold
ing the animal helpless to rise while a
companion ties Its legs
