The year of greatest growth In boys Is the seventeenth; In girls, tho four- teenth. While girls reach full height In their fifteenth year, they acquire full weight at the age of twenty. Boys aro stronger than girls from birth to the eleventh year; then girls become supe- rior physically to the seventeenth year, When the tables are again turned and remain so. From November to April children grow very-little and gain no weight; from April to July thoy gain in height but lose i n weight, and from July to November they increase greatly in weight, but not la height Kcanlnss ot Several 5<nn.

No matter what the disease, the first thing the Chinaman thinks of is gin- seng. His faith in Ills medicine helps t o cure him beyond any doubt. Given such trust In any pl.ysiclnn or any drug, there Is no question but what it would reduce our mortality rccprd. If a man wants\to sober up after a night of feasting and wines, tho remedy is ginseng. If he has used too much the opium pipe, give him ginseng. If the baby's stomach i s out of order, put gin- seng Into its food.. If tho appetite Is go'ne, It calls for tho samp drug.

True * .rat AlnuKO. Tho nlmamc, properly s o called In tt> origin, i s not merely a dovico for keep- ing people in mind of the progress of thn year. It Is an attempt to BhOir what destiny has in store for us as in- dicated by the position of the stars ID **y particular year, and as, '800001108 K> astrological lore, tho destinies of men are ruled by tho different aspect* of tho planets, so also the human body is subject to the influence of the con- stellations through- which the son ap- pears to pass In his yearly course. A French almanac of 1610 gives a dia- gram of the human body surrounded by all the signs of the zodiac and Indi- cates the vnrions organs 1 nd member* over which these signs have powoi, and this for a guide pour les salgnees, or to show at what periods blood may bo let with safety. But the same al manac also gtves directions senslbl* enough for the avoidance of the plagu? which would not be found fault with by a modern fashionable physician.' ftho. would keep his body In health Aad resist tho Infection of the plafua,' Ltt bht «eek Joy and Badness By, Avoid places where Infections abound And cherish Joyous company. A few examples exist of almanacs of this character before tho invention of printing, although none, It Is believed, earlier than the twelfth century. But some of the earliest specimens of print- ing are black printed German sheet al- manacs, which are chiefly concerned about blood letting. —All the Year Bound. \CnTBoth Wujm. \I want my hair cut and no talk,\ said n great man with an I own the earth air\ as he walked into a barber's shop and sat down. \The\— commenced the man in the apron. \No. talk, I tell you!\ shouted thn heavy man. \Just n plain hair cut Tve read all the papers and don't want any news.

At tho same time Barnacles Inspected the captain. With head lowered to knee level, with ears cocked forward, nop- trlls shilling and under lip twitching almost as If ho meant to langh, Bar- nacles eyed his prosfpeetive ownor. Captain Bean squirmed under the gaze of Barnacles' big, calm eye. for a moment, aud then shifted his position. \What In time does lio want any- way.
