The Pronunciation Of Z.

Ninety-nine u of every hundred
Nortnerners will say institoot instead OF
institute-dooty for duty, a perfect
rvthm of the word beauty. They call
new and news, moo and noos-and so on
through the dozens and hundreds OF
similar words. Not a dictionary in the
English language authorizes this In
student and stupid the "a has the same
sound as cupid, and should not be pro
2ouncei stoodent or stoonid, as so many
teachers are in the habit of sounding
them.
If it is = yulearism to call a door a
doah-as we all adml,-:sn't It as much
o; q yulgsrialn to call a newspaper a
ncospaper y One vulsarism is Northern
and the Other Southern that's tn only
difference. When tine London lunch

Winning q Wife.

"There is nothing" says Lord Shafte-
bury, (which is SO merely fortune, and
more committed to the power Of blind
chance, than marriage" A curious IL
lustration of his meaning comes to us
from the staid old town of Franklin,
Mass.
At an evening party there a gentle
man challenged a charming young wi
dow to try her fortune at casino. She
accepted the challenge, playfully pro
posing that they should play for a wager,
and he agreeing, asked her to name the
stake. Seeing she was at a loss to re-
spond, the host laughingly SAID, "His
hand against yours" The lady demur-
red. and was turning away from the
table, when the challenger interposed
with:
"Ay hand for yours if I win, or at
your disposal for any young lady of re
sp~ectabihty, her consent being attain
able, if | lose"
The wager was accepted, and the
amused company gathered round the
board. The lady led of and made A.,
her adversary failing to score in return,
but improving in his play as the game
progressed, reached 2l5 to the widows
l6t. Growing nervous. she played
worse and worse, and finally left of'the
loser by pa points. Then the hostess
advanced, took the far ones feebly-re-
sisting hand, and placed it in that Of the
exultant winner, who begged permission
to keep the mace with which he had
won the match and a wife.-Chamhpf's

A New and Simple Plan for Dead
en1ng Pain.

The last number Of the Meli,ai Record
contains a new and curious method Of
deadening pain which is Of striking sim
plic;ty. /: was discovered by Dr.. Bon
viii, a dentist OF Philadelphia. In 1876,
DR.. 4. Hewson made a favorable re-
port Of lis experience with it to the n
ternational Medical Congress, and at a
recent meeting OF tie Philadelphia Coan-
" Medical Society several papers We're
read on the subject, and much discuss
ion followed. In using, the operator
more'y requests the paten: 20 breathe
rapidly, making abou. 100 respirations
per minute, ending N Il rapid putting
expiration. A the end of from two to
five minutes an entire or partial absence
OF pain results for half a minuteormore;
during that time teeth may be drawn or
incisioiis made. The patient may be in
any position, IN, that recommended is
lying on the side, and it is generally
best 70 throw a handkerchief over the
face to prevent distraction OF thepatient's
attention. When the rapid breathing
is first begun, the patient may feel some
exhilaration; following this comes a sen
sation OF ~fullress in the head or dizzi-
ness. The face is at first flushed, and
afterwards pale, or even blush; the
heart beats rather feebly and fast, but
the sense OF touch IS not affected. nor is
consciousness lost. The effect is pro
duced in females more readily than in
males, and in the mid1le-aged more easily
than in the old. Children can hardly
be made to breathe properly. 1t is de
MED that there is any possible danger.
Several minor operations other than FIRE
quent dental ones have been successfully
made by this method, and it is claimed
that III dentistry minor surgery and ob
s~tetrics it may supplant the common
anasthetics. DR.. Hewson's explanation
IS that rapid breathing diminishes the
oxygenation Of the blood, and that the
resultant excess Of carbonic acid TEN
porarily poisons the nervous centers.
