Hairy Men.

An account appears IN the Edinburgh
Medical journal of the two remarkable
hairy men, Russians, who have excited
so much interest in Europe. The pecul-
iarity of these individuals is that they
have an excessive growth of hair upon
one particular part of the body, namely,
the face and neck on the body and
lower extremities there is also stronger
growth of hair and particularly on the
back and arms of the son (the two being
father and child there are sundry
patches of obs inch to 0.24 inch in
diameter, covered with soft yellowish
white hair, Oh to 0. "a inch long. The
father has on his body isolated patches
strewn, but not thickly, with hair one
fifth to two inches long But all this is
slight and subordinate compared with
the hair growth on the face. The father
has only the left eye-tooth IN the upper
jaw. The son has no teeth, hardly any
alveolar process, and the upper lip is
very narrow, SO that the upper jaw APP
pears depressed; the father presents
the same appearance. Every part OF
the face anu neck, usually covered with
down, is in their case covered with long
hair-even the eyelids-while flowing
locks come out of both nostrils and
from the ea-s.

Indigestion in Calves.

Calves when carelessly fed or man.
aged, are very much subjected to indi-
gestion. They become dull and pot
bellied, and thriftless In appearance,
their appetite capricious, their bowels
irregular, and their faces pale colored,
sour and badly smelling. When such
are neglected, troublesome dlarrhea Is
apt to follow. The ailment usually
depends upon the accumulation of sour
curdled milk in the fourth stomach,
which is the one used while the young
animal is fed upon milk, and does not
ruminate. Laxative medicine must
therefore at once be given. For a three
months-old calf the dose may consist of
two ounces castor or hnseed oil, to
which may be added half an ounce each
of carbonate of soda and ginger. II
the animal is weakly and securing, ten
or fifteen drops of laudanum may be
added. For a few days, until indeed
recoveryis established, an ounce each
of common salt, carbonate of soda, and
ginger may be given night and morning
in little milk or where the calf is
fatulent, dull and weak, an ounce of
salt and half an ounce each of carbonate
and sulphate of soda may be admins
tered twice daily. The diet, as in all
such cases, must be carefully attended
to. If unweaned, the calf should have
its milk fresh and sound, thrice daily.
A daily allowance of linseed Cruel or
bruised linseed cake will further be
serviceable. Comfortable shelter, q
dry bed and plenty of room are also es-
sential When protraoted Indigestion
appears to result from weakness, and
the mucous membrane has become
irritable and relaxed, advantage fire.
quently follows the use of eight or ten
drops each of muriatic acid and creo-
sote. given every morning until it
abates.

Journalism.

Newspapers are getting to be much
more than mere transcripts of the news
and gossip of the day. They are pio-
neers in learned explorations they are
foremost in geographical and historical
discovery they are the teachers of So
cial science. They are no longer salts
fed with disseminating the knowledge
laboriously collected by savants, by trav-
elers, by experiments in natural philos-
ophy they must pursue their investiga-
tions, and send their agents into ali the
half-explored fields of science and al
venture.
The reporter of to-day is the advent
urer who penetrates the desert and the
Jungle, the scholar who searches for
relics OF the forgotten past, the courier
who bears the news of victory to courts
and congresses across a wilderness and
through hostile armies. the detective
who prizes into public abuses and dis
cover hidden wrongs, the pioneer who
throws new countries open to the world,
the philanthropist who unbars the door
of the torture-chamber the chemist who
detects authorizations in the spice box,
the inspector who seiZes false weights
and measures, the auditor who ex-
poses theft in the public treasury
journalism busies itself now with ev-
cry thing that effects the public well
fare. It trenches upon the province
once sacred to the scholar, and supplies
the defects of an inefficient government.
Year by year its ambition becomes larg-
er, its purpose more benefcent, and its
means more abundant ; and We can
hardly doubt that it is destined In
very short time to be the foremost of all
the secular PROFESSIONALISM most pow
erful in its operations. the most brill mt
in its rewards, and the most useful to
mankind.

Character of the ROthschilds.

The four original houses remain,
though they have agencies and interests
in all the leading cities of Europe,
Asia, and Africa, as well as North and
South America. They have belted the
globe with their operations. and are in
the fullest sense universal and cosmo-
politan bankers. For generations they
have been Barons, and the title is
hereditary in their family. Since the
death of old Mayer Anselm, they have
added the distinguishing dc and con
to their names, and are as far removed
from democratic affiliations and sym
pathies as if it were a thousand instead
of hundred years since their ancestors
counted kreutzers and old rags in the
Jundengasse of Frankfort. They have
always been devoted to their theolog-
ical faith, and strict in observing all
the forms of the synagogue. They are
not without superstition IN their creed,
believing that much of their good for
tune has come from their answering
fidelity to Judaism. Their charities to
their co-religiOnists have been many
and liberal They have endowed
schools, built hospitals, and founded
almshOuses. Their attachment to their
ancient form of Worship is noble and
commendable. They cannot help re-
membering how bitterly their people
were prosecuted for ages, and how very
recent it is that they have been allowed
to enjoy either political or civil rights.
Long after Mayer Anselm had grown
rich, he and his fellow-Hebrews were
locked into the Jews quarter OF Frank
fort after nightfall, and forbidden to
depart thence until the iron gates were
thrown open in the morning. If the
great bankers have forgiven the inhu-
man wrongs done through centuries to
their race, they are singularly magnan-
lmous. They have reason to feel as
Shylock felt to Antonio toward the
fawning Christians who GO to them for
money. Their negative revenge cannot
be without sweetness when they think
that the once despised and hunted Jew
has had the proudest mobiles begging
for his gold, and even Kings soliciting
his aid. 1t has been their boast that
monarchs could not go to war without
the consent of the Rothschilds. Like
most boasts, this was not strictly true );
but they who furnish the sinews of
battle are the most desirable of allies.
not less than the most formidable of
foes. The Rothschilds, save at rare
intervals, continue to intermarry, and
are likely to while the powerful family
holds together. If the common theory
respecting the union of blood-relatives
were true, the banking brotherhood
would be reduced by this time to hope
less imbecility !; and they are in the
opposite extreme.-Harper'S Weekly.

The ELASTIC TR, SC

Was incorporated in 1868. It's friends and patrons
are from every land and speak every tongue 1t
has outlived all rivalry. 1t has conquered the
prejudice that as justly caused by all the metal
trusses. 1t has grown stronger and frmer as the
years have marched apace. and. like giant, it's
arms encircle the world. There must be some po-
tent reason that has produced this wonderful re-
suit. That reasons the simple fact that the Elias
tic Truss rs worn night and day, with comfort re-
tanning rupture in perfect ease, causing incon-
venience, can never be displaced by the hardest
exercise; yielding ana adapting itself to every
motion Of the body but always holding the rupture
safely, and soon effects perfect and permanent
cure. This new and wonderful invention has pro-
duced a radical revolution in treating Rupture
and has absolutely driven out of use al the
wretched etal finger pad and spring trusses that
formerly cursed the community and made life a
burden to so many thousands upon thousands of
suffering ones, who now are happily enjoying once
more the blessings and comforts of existence.

The Great Jefferson Cheese.

In 1901, the ladies of Cheshire, Mass.
made mammoth cheese, weighing 145
pounds, which was presented to Presi-
dent Jefferson as token of their esteem
and confidence. The person selected to
present this cheese was the Rev. John
Leland, Baptist minister celebrated at
that day. The ceremony was performed
at Washington, d. c., on the first day
of January, 1902, with a good deal of
parade, Elder Leland making the pre-
sentation speech and the President
standing in his door to receive it-sev-
eral clergymen and crowd of specta-
tors being present to see and hear. The
cheese was started from Cheshire in
November, 1901, being carried carefully
to Hudson, n. Y, and from there
shipped on board sloop bound for
Georgetown, ID. c. 1t arrived safely at
Georgetown, and, few days before the
presentation, the "great cheese" as it
was then called, was taken from George
town to Washington in a wagon drawn
by six horses, and attracted good deal
of attention along the way. On the
day of presentation it was taken from a
house on Pennsylvania avenue by draw
drawn by two horses and carried to the
Presidents house. Elder Leland left
his home after the mammoth cheese
had been shipped, and preached all the
way to and from Washington, wherever
he stopped, being generally spoken of
and talked about as the mammoth
priest "a great deal of curiosity hav-
ing been aroused to see and hear the
10 Il e.
by its connection with the great cheese.

Dreams.

Some philosopher, who evidently
knows how it is himself, interprets
dreams a. fellows:
If a man dreams the devil is after
him, it is sign he had better settle his
subscription bill.
If he dreams of an earthquake, and q
turmoil generally, it is sign that he is
going to get married.
If he (being married MANI dreams
of some fearful mysterious danger, it is
a sign that his mother-in-law is comip,,
to spend few days with her darling
daughter.
If he dreams that his head is in dan
ger. and his hair all falls out, it is a
sign that he had better know all the po-
Hcemen.
If he dreams of making fool OF
himself, it is true sign that it is so.

seeds of the size of French bean. Their
flavor is a little like that of opium, and
their taste is sweet; the odor from them
produces a sickening sensation and is Sigh
