Figaro's reporter always saw at the
Paris executions an old man dressed IN
black, of distinguished appearance, and
who always took an intense interest IN
eli the details, and was on familiar terms
with all the funotionsries. For a long
time the reporter was mystihed, and
finally resorted to an interview His man
proved to be an ex-dignitary of the gull
iotiBe. He had been the assistant for
many years Of Heindreich, the former
executioner. BE attends the executions
out of feeling Of " homesickness for
his ancient occupation" BE finds the
present executions only $3.50, and says
tha, Heindreich was more distingue. In
his retirement be has made himself a
little guillotine, and gHillotines rats snd
mice at bis home, No. l3l Boulevard

Breathing Through the Nose.

From the Science of Health.
The pernicious habit Of breathing
through the mouth while sleeping or
waking, is very hurtful. There are many
persons who sleep with the mouth open,
and do not know it. They may go to
sleep with it closed, and wake with it
closed; but if the mouth is dry and
parched on waking, it is sign that the
mouth has been open during sleep. Snor.
ing is certain sign. This habit should
be overcome. At all times, except when
eating, drinking or speaking, keep the
mouth firmly closed and breathe through
the nostrils, and retire with firm deter
mination to conquer. The nestrils are
the proper breathing apparatus-not the
mouth. A man may inhale poisonous
gases through the mouth without being
aware Of it, but not through the nose.
