Mental and PHYSICAL Disease.

There is no doubt that sorrowful and
disagreeable emotions produce disease
in persons who, uninhuenced by them,
would be in sound health-or, If disease
was not produced, the functions are dis
ordered. Not even physicians always
consider the importance of this fact.
Agreeable emotions set in motion ner-
vous currents, which stimulate blood,
brain, and every part of the system into
healthful activity while grief, disap-
pointment of feeling and brooding over
present sorrows or past mistakes, de-
press all the vital forces. To be physi-
cally well, one must, in general, be hap
py. The reverse is not always true one
may be happy and cheerful, and yet be
a constant sufferer in body.

Photography I'm Japan.

A German photographer, located
Yokohama, Japan, carries on his busi-
ness, assisted almost entirely by natives.
He, however, instructs each person in
but one branch of the art, for he finds
that as soon as one gets an inkling of
the several branches, he goes Off and
commences business for himself. These
native photographers provide themselves
with but one small portrait lens and
about three glasses. The negatives are
not vanished, but as soon as the pic
ture is taken and a copy taken from the
negative, the glass is cleaned and used
for the next conner. The German ar
lists chief support comes from land.

A Shower Of AlIigatOrs.

The Aiken Is. o. Journal says :
DR.. J. L. Smith, of Silverton Township,
while opening up a new turpentine farm.
poticed something fall to the ground
and commence to crawl toward the tent
where he was sitting. On examining
the object he found it TO be an alligator.
In the course of few moments a second
one made its appearance. This SO ex-
cited the curiosity of the doctor that he
looked around to see if he could dis
cover any more, and found six others
within the space of 200. yards. The
animals were all quite lively, and about
twelve inches in length. The place
whereon they fell is situated on high
sandy ground about six miles north OF
the Savannah river. The animals are
supposed to have been taken up in a
water-spout in some distant locality, and
dropped in the region where they were
found.

himself. His body was found under a
foot of snow, lying across the grave of
his first wife. His second wife had
turned him out of her house, and he

very rich, but had lost his property, and
had grown to be dissipated.

day, and as he walked away he declared
he would take one of 'em every day to
help circulation.

THE LATEST SNAKE YARN

The following snake story is from the
CecU Democrat
Perhaps one of the most remarkable
oct urrences knownto med cal een, has
Just been reported from Chesapeake
City. About year ago, during the con-
structlon OF "A house near that town, lit
tie George Norris, boy now seven
years of age, in company with some other
children, were playing near a spring, at
the site of the house. George drank
from the spring, and in doing so, it is
supposed, swallowed small water
snake. Nothing was known of the oc-
currence at the time, and until some
months ago the child suffered no un-
usual sickness About six weeks ago he
was affected with shortness of breath
and turpentine was applied 10 his throat
TO give him relief. DIR. Wallace was
called in to attend to the little sutf. rer.
ana believing him to be suffering from
! worms, prescribed the proper remedies.
After several doses of the medicine had
been taken, the child voided a dead
snake nine and ahalf inches long. AT
| hrst 1t was not believed to be true that a
snake had actually lived and grown in The
Doys stomach Tor year, but the fullest
investigation proved that it was we'll
established fact. Little Norris soon re
covered and is now enjoying good health
| The snake is preserved in alcohol at tn,
cFug store of MIG. S. Woolley, In Chesa
peake City, where it may be seen.
