A Light Extinguished.

Ii seems strange that a comic paper
should be published almost under the
shadow of Mount Ararat; but until re-
Gently such publication did weekly wave
its lightSOme wings and twinkle with Ar
mcnian puns and orient witticisms. 1t
does not seem credible that any writer
cOuld be periodically and consistently
amusing who wrote beneath a sky along
which once darkened the mighty length
of the ark. and almost within sight of the
summit on which it rested. But times
change. Noah is not forgotten in those
Armenian wales. But there must be cakes
and ale. Notwithstanding the old Dcluge
and its traditions of awe and wonder.
And the people have evidently so far tri-
umphcd over the sOlemnity of their sur
roundings that they begin to likc<Dkes
and comic pictures. The vehicle which
supplied them with these has, however.
been suppressed. 1t indi>crcctly reviewed
the Armenian Archbishop, and pOked fun
at his wig. So the ecclesiastical extin-
guiSher was suddenly dropped over ii,
and it went ont like taper. The conf
munitv now have to import their puns
and pleaSantrics, and then get them eX-
planned. This is disastrous condition,
and impOrtS-what we are sorry to believe
that entire freedom OF the press is not
yet guaranteed in the regions around
Ararat. We have never seen the paper.
nor DO We know exactly the character of
tn joke leveled at the Archbishop.
whether it was good or a bad one; but
in the absence of testimony, and consid-
cring the sudden squelching Of the journal
following on the exploit, We conjecture
that it must have been bad one. 1t
probably bore an oriental resemblance to
one of those three-stOry jokes, common
in China. which one man tells, another
explains, and third runs round the cor
ner 10 get Il diagram with which to show
the point of the thing. If it was one of
these, we can hardly blame the Archbish-
op for stopping the paper, though that is
an expeaient TO be resorted to only in
extreme cases, in Armenia or elsewhere.

Scottish Anecdotes.

THERE are some capital Scottish anec-
dotes i'm Ercry Saturday, among them one
of dying Highland chieftain, who asked
his spiritual adviser ''if there was any
whisky in Heaven" and then half-apOlo-
geticafly said. ''i ken, sir, it's no that l
care for it, but it looks weel on the table.
Here is another: DIR. Robert Knox, the
crest teacher of anatomy, began one of
his letters in this way: ''Gentlemen, there
are no textbooks / can recommend. |
wrote one myself, but it is poor stuff. 1
can't recommend it. The man who knows
most about subject writes worst upon it.
If YOU want a good textbook on any sub
ject, recommend me to the man who
knows nothing earthly about the subject.
The result is that we have no good text
book on anatomy. We will have one soon,
however; Professor MOnrO is going to
write one" This Professor MOnrO was SO
lazy that he was in the habit OF using MS
grandfather's lectures, written more tnar
a hundred years before his day. and stu
dents were electrified by hearing him tir
| 1929 and 1S30) drawl out, ''When was II
Padna in 1894" This was the signal fol
fun, and showers Of peas descended OF
MonrO's head, who could never under
stand what it was all about. There is als'
story of q Scotch servant, who, whel
asked how ''his lordship" (i.e. his master
was, answered, 81 hope he's weel." IL
was, in fact, dead, but the old servitor wa
too cautious to commit himself, i'm hi
opinion, as to his condition. Among Othe
drinking anecdotes and sayings is that 9
an old worthy, who used to say, whisky
a bad thing" and then, as if to qualif
such dangerous sentiment, added, ''e:

ease which afflicted the Hon. James
Brooks. 1t was reported to be malarlal
affection contracted in India, but the
physicians had various opinions of their
own about it. A correspondent OF the
World says none of them agreed as to its
nature. DR.. w. Parker, a widely-knOwn
practitioner of New York City, spent
some time in studying the disease, and
suggested that it might probably be leu
cocythamia, which is an undue prep0n-
derance of the white cOrpusclcs OF the
blood over the red. Not long since specl-
mems of blood were taken from several
parts of Mr.. Brooks body, and intrusted
to DIR. j. j. Woodward, of the Army
Medical Museum. DR.. Woodward SUB.
mtted the specimens to most powerlui
microscopic examination. lie reports
that the blood was in an abnormal cOndi-
ton. and that there was an unusual pro-
portion of the white cOrpuscles, Dut not
| In a sufficient quantity TO justify the deslg-
nation of leucOcyth2mia. The patlent
finally died, and then only were the med

of his illness. 1t was cancer OF the stoHl-
acb. we now learn. Probably nothing
could have been done to check the mall
adv, even if its nature had been known,
but the sufferer might perhaps have Deen
saved from some pain and annoyance.
After all the study that is given TO such
matters, how little is really known about
