Tin physicians who have filed heart failure" as the cause of Husks death have something to explain. They might a well say breath failure or brain fail ura. Heart failure is a consequenoe of any vital disease and may be away caused by operations which doctors do not always care to put on record. To describe heart failure as cause of death is to provoke derision among professional men and suspicion among the lay.

' Into thia harbor they brought the ship and moored her. Thia Vinland of the early voyagers is known at the present day aa Newfoundland. After making several short cruises to the southward and westward, and sailing through the Gulf of ML Lawrence until the river of that name was reached, the ship i turned to her first anchorage, where the explorers passed the winter. In the account of this remarkable voyage, made five centuries before King Ferdinand and Qneen Isabella d bade to the Italian navigator in the Spanish harbor of Palos, it is recorded by Itiorn and Lief that the length of the shortest day during the winter of tbe year 1003--3 w eight hours. This proves conclusively that thia Vinland of theirs was no further north than Newfoundland, otherwise the length of the day would have been shorter. liar ar's Young 1eople. Indian sad Cowrie.

Aetnal and repeated experiments hare ahown that the nearest hour of the day or night may be ascertained in the following curious way: Make small running loop in a piece of sewing thread about a foot in length, plaee a shilling in this loop, see that the coin is accurately bisected by the thread, and then draw tbe loop tight up, so that the shilling ia firmly slung at one end of the thread. Pat on a olid table a glass tumbler with a fairly wide mouth. Rest your right elbow on the table in a firm and easy position ao aa to avoid any shakiness in your hand, hold the other end of the thread between tha first finger and the ball" of the thumb (L a, the fleshy top joint of the thumb ao that the thumb nail ia undermoat and few inches above the midof of dle the mouth the glaaa Now, if yon keep yonr hand quite steady the movement of the coin (which is hanging insido the tumbler) will become lose And less until the shilling ? motionless. Then in half a minute or ao, a very alight and regular vibration will commence, the coin oscillating from aide to aide like a pendulum and gradually increasing the length of movement until it gently strikes tbe aide of the glaaa Thia strike goes on in the moat regular and automatic way, first on one aide of the glass and then on the other until, say eight strokes have been struck, the vibrations of the coin then diminish in length until the suspended shilling again becomes motionless and hangs in the middle of tha tumbler. Yon look at your watch and find that 8 o'clock ia the nearest hour. I have tried thia over and over again, deliberately setting about the experiment without bias or any intention of influencing the awing of the coin, and also being ignorant of the time, and when my hand has been steady the right time haa invariably been struck.

A united family is more to be regarded than one cook.

The preseat elegant simplicity that has weeded out the old tangled mass of side dishes from the national board is certainly more dainty and more appetizing than our former profusion. The question is merely one of change If we breakfast on the chief piece de croquettes at the morning resistance meal should be ss far as possible removed from meat balls Next to daintiness in serving, mystery ia perhaps the moat Important factor in forcing an appetite. The hungry man who oomea from business with his stomach mortgaged to frlcaa-aee- d chicken on Monday night, roast beef on Tuesday night and chore on Wednesday night eats hia dinner merely because ha ia a hungry man, but he of the fickle appetite ia lured ever hopefully to the dining room of the wise housewife, who never publishes her bill of fare in advance. Th e not knowing what is coming, and au element of surprise in what does come if the food is in itself desirable, will do more than anything else can toward patting new life into a listless palate.

One of the distinct advantages accorded to women in these days is that the period of youth is greatly pro-- , longed, and she may virtually be any age she likes to be that is, at least any age she looks and feela Happily for her, the time when it was considered an evidence of vanity and bad taste to dress and act youthfully after she had passed an accepted Rubicon has gone by; a woman may follow her feelings in these particulars without exciting censure or ridicule, any latitude being allowable, always providing that she will keep to a certain standard in youthful spirits and appearance. It certainly seems unreasonable that when a wom-i- is conscious of no decay, either mental or physical; when the joy of living ie just as intense, and all pleasures are just ae eagerly enjoyed, she should be considered old simply because she has passed her premiere jeuneesa Moreover, in her contest with the "Insolent pride of youth, she hoe her incontestable innings, that more than offset the mere beaate dn disble of the giH.
