The Legion of Honor.

The grand chancellor of the legion of honor has had list drawn up of the members belonging to the legion on the first day of this year. At the date there were 70 wearers of the grand cross, 267 grand officers, 1,317 commanders, 6,434 officers, and 5l, 120 chevaliers or com panions, in all 59, POS members. A cer- tain number of these are in receipt Of annual pay; fl wearers of the grand cross receive $500 each, or 24,600; 1S5 grand officers receive $400 each, or S74, GOO; 932 commanders receive S200, or $lS6. 200; 6 officers receive S200 each, or $1, 200 4,Sl7 officers receive Sl00 each, or S4Sl, 700; 146 cnevaliers receive S70 each, or $l0,220, and 29,S93 chevaliers receive $50 each, or Sl ,494,650. Thus there are in all 36,020 members of the legion who receive annual pay of to the amount of g 272,770; while there are 23, 1SS civilian members who receive nothing as pay is only granted to these who have served in the army or navy
 The law passed five years ago to the effect that only one nomination should be made for every two vacancies has already began to take effect, for on the lst of March, 1872, there were 73 wearers Of the grand cross as against 70 now; SOY grand officers as against 267; 1887 com manders as against l,3l7 S,S76 officers as against 6,434, and 5S, ,335 chevaliers as against 51, ,l20. The total number of members at that date was 9,176, so that the extinctions have exceeded the nomi- nations by 9,969 during the five years. Since the downfall of the empire the increase in the number of members has, however, been very considerable, for be- tween the publication of decree by the government of national defense for the exclusion of civilians, and July, 1873, there were nominated Is grand crosses, 71 grand officers, 399 commanders, 2, ll6 officers, and LOTTO chevaliers. The military medal, which is confined to non- commissioned officers and privates, is worn by 53,000 persons, and entails an annual expenditure of $1 100000.

Alcoholic An@sthesia. /

Some interesting experiments made in Germany in the production of local anes thesia, show that if the hand be immersed for short time in ice-water, severe pain is caused, but that no such pain is pro duced on immersing the hand in the cold alcohol, not even when the temperature of the alcohol is as low as five degrees cent. Glycerine was found to possess q similar property Either occasioned pain, and quicksilver more acute pain still, causing the speedy withdrawal of the finger when plunged into this liquid at a temperature of three degrees. It was next ascertained that, on the finger being held for long time in alcohol having q temperature of five degrees cent, no pain was experienced, and, although the finger perceived the faintest touch, sharp bricks gave no pain. This seems to show that the application of cold alcohol, one of the most simple as well as safest pro- cesses, has the effect of depriving the part of the special sensibility to pain, without, however, impairiug the delicacy of the general taetile sensation which, AS is we'll known, resides in the superficial integument.

Mexico Travelling Down Hill.

Galveston News, &: What is to become of Mexico when revolution, anarchy and decay have worked their worst upon her, must be question of deep concern to American statesmansbip. Geographical facts and social and national considera- tions of the highest importance forbid indifference. There is noevidence what ever that Mexico, left to depend solely upon remedial forces within herself, is capable of self-redemption. From year to year for the past half century, she has gone from bad to worse. Her history has been as disastrous as eventful. Since her independence of Spain she has never known a period of more than four years without a revolution, and at one time, four different military adventurers occu- pied the presidential chair in fifteen months. She has had two emperors, three or four dictators, a multitude of presidents, two foreign invasions, inces- sant domestic and local wars, countless pronunciamentoes. No wonder she has steadily declined in population and wealth. In 1921 the population of Mex ico was estimated to be 100000. At present it is estimated to be 7,500 GOO, and only few hundred thousand out of this number are of pure European de-

Str hing Facts.

Four or five years ago the Rev. John S. 0. Abbott wrote History of Chris tianity." It was read with great interest by young gentlemen of Japan who have been educated in this country, several Of whom, while students, resided in MT. Abbott's family.
 Among them was young lady of high rank, named Shege Nogui, who became a convert to Christianity. As she had been sent by the Japanese government to this country to be educated, she requested from it permission to unite with a Chris tian church. The government promptly granted the request.
 She also at the same time wrote to her family, whose male members are promi- nent members of the imperial court, for a similar permission. Her brother, who had learned to read English, replied, say ing that the family gave their hearty consent, that they had read MT. Abbotts History of Christianity and were glad that she was to become Christian.
 Some ten years ago six Japanese girls were sent over to the United States to be educated. One of them was placed in family where she read the English bible. Being deeply impressed by its teachings, she wrote to her father, urging him to procure a copy and read it. In. stead of needing his daughters request, he regarded it as childs whim, and dis missed it from his mind.
 Seven years later the father visited, as commissioner from Japan, the Austrian exhibition. There he saw the great bible stand on which the British and foreign bible society displayed translations Of the bible in more than hundred languages. He was impressed by the fact-a very suggestive one to an intelligent man whether heather or Christian that so much should be made of single book as to translate it into so many tongues.
 His curiosity was aroused. lie bought a copy of Chinese bible and read it. The curiosisy of literary investigator cave place to the interest of seeker alter truth. Gradually he became convinced that the book. was from God, and that what it taught was true.
 He travelled through Europe, and carefully observed the three prevailing forms of Christianity, and on his return to Yeddo he applied to an American missionary for baptism, most earnestly declaring his fait.l in Christ as the Savior of the world.
 Hearing of the step her father had taken, the daughter wrote to him from the United States, suggesting that, as he had the means, he should purchase a heathen temple, and dedicate it to Christian worship. This last request he did not treat as the whim of girl, and Christian missionaries now meet tol worship in the temple bought by thi; Japanese gentleman
 And so, as the years go on, slowly but surely the prophetic declarations re specting the despised Galilean Peasant O eighteen hundred years ago, are being verifed.-- Youths Companion.

Put Life into Your Work.

A young mans interest and duty both dictate that he should make himself in dispensible to his employers. He should be so industrious, prompt and careful that the accident of his temporary ab- sence should be noticed by his being missed. A young man should make his employer his friend by doing faithfully and minutely all that is entrusted to him. It is a great mistake to be over nice or fastidious about work. Pitch in readily and your willingness will be ap- preciated while the high-toned" young man who bubbles about what it is and what it is not his place to do will get the cold shoulder. There is story that George Washington once helped roll a log that one of his corporals would not handle, and the greatest emperor of Rus sia worked as a shipwright in England to learn the business. That is just what you want to do. Be energetic, look and act with alacrity; take an interest in your employers success; work as though the business was your own, and let your employer know that he may place abso- lute reliance on your word and on your act. Be mindful; have your mind on your business, because it is that which is going to help you, not those outside at- fractions which some of the boys" are thinking about. Take pleasure in your work; do not go about in listless. for nal manner, but with alacrity and cheerfulness, and remember that while working thus for others you are laying the foundation of your own success in life.
