A Down Easter believes there is moth
ing like advertising. He lost his peck
ct book recently, advertised his loss In
the local newspaper, and next morning
vert down into his own cellar and
found it on the floor.
Two Mlesians were standing at the
Fairmoupt water-works, watching the
big wheels splashing the water, when
one of them remarked: mike, Isn't
this quare country, where they have
to grind it before tney can use it?"
A Detroit paper, noticing the fact
that man lately dropped dead while
combing his hair, says, "And yet there
are people who will persist in this dan
gerous habit" u.
'Boy, is this licensed dog?" asked
a Detroit policeman. mo-" sail the
youngstrr, "he's rat terrier dog, and
I'm taking him down to have his teeth
filed."

with conspicuous how legs, II say. don't
you have to have your pantaoons cut
with circular saw?"
An experienced old gentlemen says
that all that is necessary in the enjoy

h boy who had been taught that

spend quarter of an hour, and would

Letters from Mexico state that the recent
railroad policy, by which American enterprise
is excluded from that country, is already pro-
ductive of unfortunate results. Such results
were predicted with certainty when the anti
American combination was formed in the City
Of Mexico and obtained control of the Con-
gress of our sister republic in the South. Mex
leo and the United States are connected by
national bonds Of trade and commerce, and
hence American capital and enterprise should
build and manage the railroads Of that coun-
try English and other capitalists in the old
world will squeeze the Mexican orange and
tread the skin under foot But it is the policy
Of the United States to develop the resources
of that portion Of the Continent and make
such action permanent.

1t is manifest, however, that a reaction
against ironclad ships has already set in
among scientific and military men; and it is
singular fact that the favor they have obtained
among civilized nations has proceeded mainly
from the combat between the Monitor and
the Merrimac, at Hampton Roads, that being
the only important fight between ironclads
that is on record. The reaction of which we
speak has been greatly strengthened by the
useessness of these costly, heavy and unman-
ageable vessels in the French and German
war. Vast as We're the interests at stake in
that struggle, and powerful as were the in
ducements to great enterprises of maritime
warfare, there was not single battle worthy

A Living AutOmatOn.

Galgnani's MESSENGER describes patient in
one of the Paris hospitals whose case is re-
markable in its manifestations and an inter-
estiug study to the pathologistS. His profess
sion was that of a singer at the Cafes Chan
tants. During the war of 1S70-7l he was hit
over the left ear by a musket bullet, which
carried off about two inches of the parietal
bone, and laid bare the brain on the left side.
This led to temporary paralysis of the men,
bers of the opposite side, as is always the
case; but he vas eventually cured of this,
while the tremendous wound on the skull be-
gan to heal, so that after time he could re-
sumo his professional duties at the cafes to
the satisfaction of the public. Suddenly,
however, he was seized with nervous symp-
toms, lasting from twenty-four to forty weight
hours, and of such an extraordinary nature
thattit was considered safe to take him to the
| hospital
His malady is easier to illustrate by exam
pies than to define. When he is in a fit he
has no sensitiveness of his own, and will
bear physical pain without being aware OF it;
but his will may be influenced by contact with
exterior objects. Set him on his feet, and as
soon as they touch the ground they aw ken in
him the desire of walking; he then marches
straight on quite steadily, with fixed eyes.
! without saying word, or what is going on
about him. If he meets with an obstacle on j.
his way he will touch it and try to make out
by feeling what it is, and then attempt to get
out of his way. If several persons join hands
and form ring around him, he will try to find
an opening by repeatedly crossing over from
one side to the other. and this without betray-
ing the slightest CONSCIOUSNESS or impotence.
Put pen into his hand; this will instantly
awaken IL him a desire of writing; he will
tumble about for ink and paper, and. if these
be placed before him, he will write very
sensible business letter; but when the fit is
over he will recollect nothing at all about it.
Give him some cigarette paper, and he will
instantly take out his tobacco bag, roll
cigarette very cleverly, and light It with
match from his own box. Put them out one
after another, he will try from first to last to
get light, and put up in the end with his i'll
success. But ignite match yourself and
give it to him, he will not use it, and let it
burn between his fingers. Fill his tobacco
bag with anything, no matter what-shavings,
cotton, lint, hay, etc-he will roll his cigar
cite ust the same light and smoke it without
perceiving the hoax. But, better still, put
pair of gloves into his hand, and he will put
them on at once; this, reminding him of his
profession, will make him look for his music.
roll of papers is given to him, upon which
he assumes the attitude Of a singer before the
public and MARBLES some piece of his roper
tory. If you place yourself before him, he
will feel about on your person. and, meeting
with your watch, he will transfer it from your
pocket to his own; but, on the other hand, he
will allow you, without any resistance or i'm
patience whatever, to take it back again.

A few years ago the use of ice was hardly
known in Paris, but now the Parisians are in
a fair way to emulate even the New Workers as
to this article Of consumption. There are in
the French capital about twenty-five cafes,
called Of the ''tirst order" These use each
about 2OOO pounds Of ice every day. The
second rate cafes, to the number of two or
three hundred, take 1000 pounds, and the
smaller fry Of these same establishments use
400 pounds Of ice. In addition to that
consumption, the quantity of ice taken by
the restaurants and private houses, the fig
ure of 500, pounds represents very nearly
the whole daily consumption Of ice in Paris
Some few cafes manufacture their own article
through special appnratuses, and small
amount of ice is drawn from Switzerland
But the largest quantity comes from Sweden,
Denmark, and especially from the Norwegian
morasses or ponds.
