HB Remarkable Fact That Humor am'

BHJ Too often humor and melancholy go
HB together. They keep company like a
HB girl who likes to dance, and a fellow
HB who writes nice, gloomy poetry. They
HH fi tied together, but they don't hitch.
H They sympathize like oil and water
HB not. They tell us that some of the
Hl newspaper humorists, who actually
HH make people laugh, are sometimes
HB very glum and melancholy at home,
HH and can't see a Joke any quicker than
HB anybody else, when It's on themselves.
HH It'a too bad that a humorist should
DBl thus be'.'e his profession, but he's mor
Hi tal anyway--and who doesu't? It was
HH aald that Lincoln had to make Jokes
HH to relieve care. He said: "Were It not
HH for this occasional vent, I should die."

M How He Kept His Clothes Dry.
HJ -Among a large shooting party on a

FATHER OF THIRTY CHILDREN.
John Guy, Maryland Farmer, Thrice
Married, Still Robust and
Hearty.
Beaver Dam, Md. Col. Roosevelt
started for Africa before being ac
quainted with the fact that one of the
best exponents of his anti-race suicide
theory Is John W. 'Hy, who has been
the father of 30 children, 20 eons and
ten daughters, of whom there are 21
living, his eldest child, a son, being 53
years old, his youngest, a daughter,
being two years of age.
Ouy, who Is a farmer, resides about
one mile from Melfa station, on the
New York, Philadelphia & Norfolk
railroad, and was 75 years old on
April 6.
In U55 he was married to Mary Ann
Rayfleld, a farmer's daughter, and to
this union seven children were born.
On September 12, 1868, he married
Miss Margaret Elizabeth Ayers, after
a romantic elonement. who bore him
18 children. His third wife was Miss
Lola Crockett, a beautiful girl of 16
years, whom he married when In his
sixty-fifth year, In 1898. To this union
five children have been born.

REASON FOR SWINGING ARMS.
la a Reminder of the Days When We
Walked on All Fours, Says
Scientist.
London. Sir Victor Horsley, lectur
ing before a medical society, explained
the habit of swinging the arms when
walking. He said it was unnecessary
and a relic of days when we walked
on all fours. He said we still keep on
moving all four drubs alternately when
we walk upright.
Sir Victor set forth tome ideas con
cerning the functions of the cerebel
lum. Primarily the cerebellum must
be regarded, said the lecturer, as an
organ which has an Important part In
correct performance of many of our
automatic actions.
Walking, standing, running are ex
amples of such actions, he said, which
-cannot, be. -accnjat.eJi.caju:lado.uJ; with
out normal, well balanced cerebellum.
New-born animals, he said, cannot
stand. They sprawl, and before they
can stand or walk or run there must
be a development of the cerebellum.
In proof of this Sir Victor pointed
out that the cerebellum of a full
grown cat showed fully developed cells
and fibers, whereas in the brains of
new-boru kP.tens this portion 1b not
yet organized Into active neive tla-sues.

8URPRI8ED HIM
Doctor's Test of Food.
A doctor in Kansas experimented
with his boy In a test of food and
gives the particulars. He says:
"I naturally watch the affect of dif
ferent foods on patients. My own lit
tle son, a lad of four, had been ill
with pneumonia and during his conva
lescence did not seem to care for any
kind of food.
"I knew something of Grape-Nuts
and its rather fascinating flavor, and
particularly of its nourishing and
nerve-building powers, bo I started the
boy on Grape-Nuts and found from
the first dish that he liked it.
"His mother gave It to him steadily
and he began to improve at once. In
less than a month he had gained
about eight pounds and soon becarae
so well and strong we had no fuuher
anxiety about him.
"An old patient of mine, 73 years
old, came down with serious stomach
trouble and before I was called had
got so weak he could eat almost noth- "T"
lng, and was In a serious condition.
He had tried almost every kind of
food for the sick without avail.
"I immediately put him on Grape
Nuts with good, rich milk and just a
little pinch of sugar. He exclaimed
when I came next day 'Why doctor I
never ate anything so good or that
made me feel so much stronger.'
"I am pleased to say that he got
well on Crape Nuts, but he had to
stick to It for two or three weeks,
then he began to branch out a little
with Tlce or nn gg or -two.- He -got
entirely well in spite of his almost
hopeless condition. He gained 22
pounds In two months which at his
age is remarkable.

Grape Nuts has worked wonders."
