PHOSPHORUS
"Ah, Dsn N a Hue thing for the
brain!" Is a remark frequently heard
and believed In, but nny one who has
studied the subject closely would not
hesitate to denounce It us a fallacy.
In the tlrst place. It Is the phos
phorus In tlsli which acts -s the brnla
In vigors tor, and a man might est a
huge <|iiantlty of tlsh every day of
hl.s life and at his death the amount of
phosphorus consumed. If It could be
made visible, wouldn't be enough to
tip a couple of matches. Are the
northern trllies, who live principally
on fish, famous for their brain power?
Are our own Usher folk breeders of
genius? Men of mark? poets, preach
ers, lawyers, warriors." philosophers and
physicians? have emanated from all
classes except that of flshlnr.
No: tlsh for the brain Is a fallacy.?
London Chronicle.
The Chines.? farmer stand* second to
tone In nil the world. This Ik all the
more remarkable since he has really no
few Implements with which to work
the marvels he produce*. His only Im
plements are the hoe. the plow nnd the
harrow. Beyond these the Chluese
farmer never dreams of dextrin? any
other. The first of these tools seems
never to l>e out of his hands, for it Is
the one upon which he relies the most
and Is his most effective Implement. It
really takes the place of the spade In
England, though th?* latter Is never put
to such extensive and general uses as
the hoe. The Chinaman can do any
thing with It hut make It speak. A
farmer well on in years can easily be
recognized amidst a uumber of work
inguieu by the curve his bands have
taken from holding the hoe lu the
many years of toll in his fields. With
it. If he Is a poor umn and has no oxen
to plow the ground, he turns up the
soli where he Is going to plant his
crops, and with It he deftly and with
a turn of his wrist levels out the sur
face so tha: It Is made ready for the
seed. With a broad bladed hoe he dips
to the Ixittom of a stream or of a pond,
draws up the soft mud that has gath
ered there and. with a dexterous
swing, flings the dripping hoeful on to
his tlcld nearby to lucrease Its richness
by this new deposit. London King
EAT AND DISEASE
If the Medical ltecord Is right, mau
Is pursuing lu* the matter of bodily
weight what Is bad for him, a common
trick, and wornau pines for a physical
Ideal that would mean long life If
achieved, something rare indeed for
women to do. Most men struggle to
be fat. Most women diet to be lean.
I>r. Brandretb Symouds draws from a
study of life insurance weights that
people past I he age of thirty live long
er if below normal weight than they
d<> If at or above standard. Heart dis
ease Is as rare amoug the underfat as {
It Is commou with the heavy folk, and ;
this Is true also of Hrlght's disease,
apoplexy, paralysis, cerebral conges- '
tl< ns and cirrhosis of the liver. Only !
In pneumonia and tuberculosis do the
underweights carry a greater risk. Iu
all the cases which he examined Dr.
Symoiuls found not a single fat mau
who reached the age of eighty years,
while forty-four short weights passed
this mark.

An article on "Examination Humor"

being Inarticulate, while the rcmnrk
that "the works of the time were most
