' Hava Lived Up ta tha Pramiaaa
af tha Springtime ama
Haaeahald Lara.
There is a sadneaa coaect4 with
the fall or the leares aad tha ckin
aaoaths of the year which we have,
all recognized. With the spring, hope
awakens in the heart aad "all things
seam possible," but with the ending
ef harvest we realize how much we
have left andone, how carelessly we
hare sown, how neglectful we have
been in cultivating the tender graces
that make life worth the living. We
all mean so well. We want to walk
sprightly, to be kindly . affectioaed
aae to another, sweet and unselfish in
ear family life. and. faithful -to every
duty set before us; but when wa be
gin to take account of harvest we
realize how far short we have come of
what we intended la the spriagtlme.
Bat let as not be discouraged, how
ever. From the realization of failures
past, let us take fresh courage for the
future.
If any watchful thought ef ears
Can make same work the .stronger.
If any cheery smile of ourt
Can make its brisHtness longer.
Oh. let us speak that thought to-day.
With tender eyes a-glowing.
So God may grant some weary eae
Shall reap from our glad sowing."
It Is a singular thing that fa the
great hospitals aad training schools
for nurses, where everything is sup
posed to be done In tha most advanced
hygienic way, a requirement la the
aurses' ward Is that their beds be
aaade for the day within a half hoar
after the time of rising.
This allows for no alriag whatever,
save the very few minutes while the
nurse is dressing. The same provis
ion holds ia the general wards, where,
the patients are able to be up during
the day. As soon as the patient rises
tha bed is made so that the ward may
. look tidy. Sanitary cleanliness la

to do this; yet ia how many families
do children, aad old folk. too. crawl

rooms without even so much as open

Every few years even the best of
mattresses should be pulled apart
aad made over by an expert workman,
then covered with fresh ticklag. As
for the pillows, they may be made over
at home, if one has a closed room in
which to work. Empty the feathers
Into clean sheets, tie up and take out

required. After a few days ia the

should be elastic like new. Then re

FISH IN NEW PLACES.
WHd Ducks Found to Bear Fish Esse

A correspondent from Safil wrote ia
our Jane issue expressing his mysti
ficatioa as to how small fish come to
be ia ladosed waters. A naturalist
suggests aa explanation. He says:
If the wild ducks, etc, of Morocco
are similar to those elsewhere there is
so mystery. For some years there
was open-mouthed wonder as to how
perch, bream and crayfish could get
Iato newly cat dams aear the -Uao-quarie
river ia New South WalesL
"la some cases the water had hardly
aettled after the rata had filled the
dam than the. fish were observed, and
the farmers started a large theory of
spontaneous production.
This obtained till a Sydney profes
sor chanced to pick up a wild duck
and found its breast feathers and
webbed feet well dotted with fertile
and almost hatched fish-ova, on which
the 'spontaneous production theory

Size ef Heads.
The average adult head has a dr
cumferance of fully 22 inches. The
average adult hat is fully 6 size.
The sizes of men's hats are 6 and

mon In Aberdeen, and the professors
of our colleges generally wear 7 to
S sizes.
Heads wearing hats of the sizes 6'
aad smaller, or being less than 21
Inches in circumference, can never be
powerful. Between 19 and 20 inches
in circumference heads are invariably
weak, and, according to this authority,
"no lady should think of marrying a
man with a head less thaa 20 inches
in circumference."
People with heads under 19 Inches
are mentally deficient, and with heads
under 18 inches "invariably idiotic"
