why Saintc Bcare Fell Into Disgrace at
the Court of the Third Napoleon.

From the Providence Journal.
The napkin etiquette question has been dis
cussed by several newspapers lately. 1t has
been claimed that the guest should leave his
napkin in negligent erumple beside his plate
At hotels and public places he may do thus,
though 'twere better otherwise, or do anything
he pleases with his napkin, except put it in his
pocket; but in private house the guest will
foid his napkin neatly by the side of his plate,
IL he wishes to show his appreciation of the
hostess care and neatness in arranging the
table. writer in the modern Athens says il is
vulgar to tuck the corner of a napkin under the
chin, and calls men who practice it unweaned
babies with bibs.
Queen Elizabeth did not use napkins. She
tore the meat from the roast with her fingers.

Erom the London Telegraph
Not long ago two young fellows, journeymen
bronzesmshs, were sitting in q small. Warsaw
cafe playing dominoes. a glass half full of
Liquor stood on the table between them. and
one or two Of their fellow-workmen were look
ing on at the game with evident interest. There
was little in the appearance of the group to at
tract especial attenten-still less to suggest the
improbable notion that the four youths compos-
ing it were two duellistS and their seconds or
that the stake of the domino-mateh was
human life. Presently. however, the game
having come to a conclusion, the younger OF the
two players, a lad of sixteen named Stanislas
Julian, lifted the glass to his lips and drank of
its contents at draught. Five minutes
later he was a corpse The wretched bows
had quarrelled and agreed to- fight duel In such
sort that the death of one OF, the other must en-
sue. Having placed themselves in the hands of
two seconds, these latter arranged that their
principals should play "see' of three games at
dominoes, upon the solemn understanding that
the loser should swallow dose of the deadliest
poison procurable. This shideous compact was
carried out to the letter, nor did any of the sur
wing persons concerned in it, when interro-
gated by the police authorities before whom
they were subsequently brought, betray the
least remorse for their share in the CHASTITY trans
action. Julians adversary. indeed, boldly
avOwed that had he lost the match he would
have fulfilled his pledge to drink the poison as
faithfully as his dead antagonist; and the sec
Onds protested that they had only done their
duty in seeing the duel fairly fought out accord
ing to the conditions settled beforehand"

Using Ones Eyes.

From the Penn Monthly
How many of us go through life without ever
realizing that our eyes have to be educated to
see, as well as our tongues to speak, and that
only the barest outlines of the complex and
ever-changing images focused on the retina Or
dinarily impress themselves upon the brain?
That the education of the eye may be brought
to high state OF perfection is shown in
numerous ways. There are many delicate pro-
cesses Of manufacture which depend for their
practical success upon the nice visual perception
OF the skilled artisan. who almost unconsciously,
detects variations of temperature, color, dem
sity, &C.. of his materials which are inappre
ciable to the ordinary eye. The hunter, the
mariner, the artist, the scientist. each needs to
educate the eye to quick action in his special
field of research before he can hope t. become
expert in it. The following story, which is quite
aprOpOs, is related of Agassiz, and it is suffi-
GENTLY Characteristic Of this remarkably accu-
rate observer to have the merit of probability.
We are told that once upon time the profess
sor had occasion to select an assistant from one
OF his classes. There were number of catdi-
dates for the post Of honor, and. finding him
self in quandary as to which one he should
choose the happy thought occurred to him of
subjectlng three OF the more promising students
in turn to the simple test of describing the
view from his laboratory window, which over
looked the side yard of the college. One said
that he saw merely board fence and a brick
pavement; another added stream of sOapy
water; a third detected the color of the paint on
the fence, noted green mold or fungus on the
bricks, and evidences Of 'buing" in the water,
besides other details. 1t is needless to tell to
which candidate was awarded the coveted posi-
ton. HOudin, theocelebrated prestdigitateur,
attributed his success in his profession mainly to
his quickness of perception, which, he tells us in
his entertaining autobiography he acquired by
educating his eye to detect a large number Of
objects at single glance. His simple plan was
to select some shOp-window full of miscellaneous
assortment of articles, and to walk rapidly past
ut q number of times every day, writing down
each object which impressed itself on his mind.
In this way he was able, after time to detect
instantaneOusly all of the articles in the win
dow, even though they might be numbered by
scores.

Expert ments On Animals Useful %
Men. Z

Men.
Chloral-hydrate was first EMPLOYED In medi-
cine by Liebrech, who was led by knowledge
of its chemical nature to think that dose of it,
taken by the stomach. would have very much
the same effect as very small quantities of chic
reform continuously administered He tried it
upon animals, and found that the effect was
very much what he supposed. 1t produces sleep,
and in large doses destroys sensibility; but when
used in such quantities as to produce this effect,
1t is attended with great danger, and sometimes
fatal consequences have occurred. We now
know, by further experiments upon animals that
the risk attending it is due to its depressing eff
iect on the heart, respiration, and animal
heat. We also know, by experiments on ami
mails, that these effects can be, to a considera-
BILE entent, counteracted by the application of
external warmth, and by this knowledge life
has been saved in at least one case where an
overdose has been taken. In that exceedingly
the agony which the patient suffers is intense,
and until the introduction of nitrate of anvil
no drug was known which could afford much
relief The progress of physiology having rem
d &c it possible to judge of the tension
this was greatly increased during the
paroxysm. 1t seemed likely that this
increase in tension was the cause Of the pain.
and that anything which would diminish it
would relieve the sufferer. Experiments upon
sessed this power. 1t was accordingly tried.
and the result has completely justified the an
tiSipations to which the experiment had led.
for it gives almost instant relief. To expert
ments upon animals, then, we owe not only a
more accurate knowledge Of the human body
in health and disease, Of the significance of the
symptoms with which we meet at the bedside,
and of the various remedies which have long
been employed, but also the introduction of
nearly all the most valuable new remedies which
have been added to the Pharmacopnia since
the year 1854. might add to those that have
mentioned many other new remedies which are
still On their trial, and which WILL in all proba-
bility, be added to the next edition Of the Phar-
macOpoia; but think it better to confine NY
self to those which are already officially recog-
nized. When we find that practically every
important addition since 1864 to the remedies
used to prolong human life and alleviate human
suffering has been made by the help Of expert
ments. it is surely not wonderful that we, who
have the serious duty of meeting the demands
OF suffering humanity should unanimously de-
mand that competent men shall not be hindered
in forwarding the progress of the healing art
by one of its most Indispensable means. Nor
will many be found to oppose that demand
when once the merits of the case are thoroughly
understOod.-T. Lauder Rf1aston, In the Nine

TABLE ETIQUETrE.



Bill Nye's Boomerang
1t has been stated and very truly, too, that
the law OF the napkin is but vaguely under
stood. 1t may be said, however, on the start
that custom and good breeding have uttered
the decree that it is in poor taste to put the
napkin in the pocket and carry it away.
The rule of etiquette is becoming more and
more thoroughly established that the napkin
should be left at the house of the host or hostess
after dinner.
There has been good deal of discussion. also,
upon the matter of folding the napkin after din
ner and whether it should be so disposed of or
negligently tossed into the grayy-boat. If, how
ever, it can be folded easily and without attract
ing too much attention and prolonging the session
for several hours. it should be so arranged, and
placed beside the plate, where it may be easily
found by the hostess, and returned to her neigh
Dor from whom she borrowedit for the occasion.
II, however, the lady of the house is not doing
jammed into a glObular wad and fired under the
table, to convey the idea of utter recklessness
and pampered abandon.
The use of the finger bowl Is also subject Of
much Importance to Che bon ton guest who
gOrges himself at the expense of his friends.
The custom Of drinking out of the finger
bowl, though not entirely obsolete, has been
limited to the extent that good breeding does
not now permit the guest to quaf the water
from his finger bowl unless he does SO prior to
using it as a finger bowl.
Thus, it will be seen that social customs are
slowly but surely cutting down and circumscri-
bing the rights and privileges of the masses.
At the court of Eugene the customs of the
table were very rigid, and the most prominent
guest Of II. r. H. was liable to get the G. B. If
he spread his napkin on his lap and cut his egg
In two with carving knife. The custom was
that the napkin should be hung on one knee and
the egg busted at the big end and seooped out
with spoon.
A prominent American at her table one day.
In an unguarded moment, shattered the shell of
soft boiled egg with his knife, and while pry-
ing it apart both thumbs were enormously
damned into the true inwardness Of the fruit
with so much momentum that the juice took
him In the eye, thus binding him and madden
Ing him to such degree that he got up and
threw the remains into the bosom Of the hired
man plenipotentiary. who stood near the table,
scratching his ear with tray. AS may readily
be supposed there was painful interim, during
which it was hard to tell for five or six minutes
whether the prominent American or the hired
man would come out on top, but at last the
American, with the egg in his eye, got the ear of
the high-priced hired man in among his back
teeth, and the honor OF our beloved flag was
indicated.
