Atmospheric Dangers of the Night.

The room in which the enfeebled per- son has been sitting before going to bed has been warmed probably up to summer heat; light meal has been taken before retiring to rest, and then the bedroom is entered. The bedroom perchance has no fire in it, or if fire is lighted provision is not made to keep itRalight for more than an hour or two. The result is that in the early part of the morning, from 3 to 4 o'clock. when the temperature of the air in all parts is lowest, the glow from the fire or stove which should warm the room has ceased, and the room is cold to an extreme de- gree. In country houses the water will often be found frozen in the hand basins or ewers under these conditions. Meanwhile the sleeper lies unconscious of the great change which is taking place in the air around him. Slowly and surely there is a decline of tenn perature to the extent, it may be, of thirty or forty degrees on the Fahren- heit scale, and though he may be fairly covered with bedclothes, he is receiv- ing into his lungs this cold air by which the circulation through the lungs is materially modified. The con dition of the body itself is at this very time unfavorable for meeting any emergency. In the period between midnight and o'clock in the morn ing the animal vital processes are at their lowest ebb. It is in these times that those who are enfeebled from any cause most frequently die. We physi- clans often consider these hours as critical, and forewarn anxious friends in respect to them.
 From time immemorial those who have been accustomed to wait and at- tend on the sick have noted these hours most anxiously, so that they have been called by one of our old writers "the hours of fate." In this space of time the influence of the life giving sun has been longest withdrawn from man, and the hearts that are even the strongest beat then with subdued tone. Sleep is heaviest and death ;s nearest to us all in |" the hours of fate. " The feeble, therefore, are most exposed to danger during this period of time, and they are most exposed to one par ticular danger, that of congestion of the lungs, for it is the bronchial surface of the lungs that is most exposed to the action of the chilled air, and on the aged that exposure is hazardous. s.-Dr. s ", Richardson.

A WOmau's Miraculous Escape.

One of the most singular adventures and wonderful escapes from death ever recorded took place in this city Satur- day morning. At that time Mrs. Peter Anderson, who lives in the vicinity of the Halfway house, and who had been uptown, was returning to her home. She had to cross the railroad. Just then Chicago, Burlington and Quincy train was coming, and she stepped back on the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific track to allow the train to pass, not noticing that at the same time train was backing down toward her on the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific road The latter train struck her before she was aware of it's coming, and knocked her down, she falling immediately between the rails. The train came on, and the cars passed over her prostrate body, the brakes and trucks striking her success sive hard thumps. The locomotive was the last to reach her, and it's fre-box, coming very near the ground, pushed and rolled her along the track for some distance. Fortunately 8 cattle guard was near, and when she reached it the fire-box forced her between the ties into the guard, and the locomotive passed on. These ties are close together, and it is not understood how she could have been forced between them without kill ing her, but the fact remains.
 She was picked up and attended by Dr. Sloan, who at first thought she was dangerously hurt. Her skull had sus- tained slight fracture, and the flesh had been torn from her body in several places. Her shoes and stockings had also been ripped of. Subsequent ex- animation, however, proved that her wounds are not fatal and with proper care she can recover. She is 8 young woman and has been only recently mar ried. She owes her life to fortunate combination of circumstances and to the fact that she is not very large woman. After one has been through such an ordeal as that there need not be much fear of death from accident. At the last report she was doing very well.-Davenport (La) Densocrst.

We advise every bus:- ness man, in his mad career to get sud denly rich, to stop and think, keep within your ability to pay-avoid bank tebts, as we travel the same road we have in the past. It seems as if our people must go through another fiery ordeal, be ground down again by the merciless wheels of this bank Juggernaut car, before they will fully comprehend the evils of bank credits. In our boasted cry of prosper ity we but ride on the pleasure car that leads us to another crash which we hope, if wisdom does not prevail, will be so sweeping that it will lead the most abject, stoic and ignorant man who worships at the shrine of the bank power, and breaches it's edicts as if coming from an oracle, to think and resolve that this false cry of "honest money" "hard money" etc, which means only bank credits and a perpetual bonded debt, shall be silenced, and
 that the people make their own money, through their government, and destroy
 bank credits, and with it the power tc
 make good times and panics, at the ca
 price of the bank dictation.-Nationo St071dUrd

A VeSDer-Bell of Nature.

Not so very long ago we talked about the campanero or bell bird of South America, and now here is news con- corning useful little cousin of his in Australia. He is not much larger than 8 snow-bunting, but he has a pleasant note, not unlike the sound of 8 distant sheep-bell. About sunset the bell birds begin their tinkling, and for a while the whole forest echoes with the silvery tones-a sort of Angelus orves- per-be1l of nature in the wild bush, pushing the woods for evening prayer.
 Besides their musical sweetness these notes are sure sign that water is near, and the weary traveller in that thirsty land is glad enough to hear the bell bird calling to rest and refreshment af- ter hot days tramp.-St. Nicholas,

AdulteratiOnS.

Some striking facts concerning the adulteration of tobacco and of the bella donna drug were commented upon in 8 current number of 8 sanitary journal of this city. It has been discovered, according to this journal, that every year in Thuringia, Germany, thousand tons of beet-leaves are transformed into tobacco and sold as such, and in other localities chiccory and cabbage leaves are employed to make the fragrant weed." Recently in England gov ernment analyst found that certain stuff sold in Smithfeld as tobacco proved to be the leaves of 8 diaphoretio plant, which had been transformed into
 tobacco to save the loss which would
 otherwise have been incurred through
 inability to sell the plant as drug. This sort of adulteration is also widely noted In the case of some drugs. Some of the belladonna i'm portel from Japan to this country was found to be, instead of belladonna, but the root known as scapolia japonica, distin guishable from the genuine drug by the large circular scars on the root
 It was, however, mixed with true bella donna and sold as the genuine drug, although such mixture was injurious and should have been avoided in all cases. A similar adulteration of bella donna was discovered in London not long ago, when some doctored drug was offered t, wholesale druggists as the genuine root. They detected the fraud and refused to purchase it, whereupon it was successfully disposed of to herb ist doing an extensive business. The latter mixed it with real belladonna and then sold it in the provinces, the decep- tion succeeding because the resemblance of the mock drug to the real one was so great that taste mainly was the only means of detecting the adulteration.

The Dangerous Imitation.

While the greenback circulation is fixed in amount by law, because of the dread of imitation as our honest money friends tell us, bank credit called cur. rency or money, but is neith er-simply bank credit that the necessities of the people compel them to take, as the national banks are the supreme rulers just now, and have expanded rapidly. There seems to be no dread of infiating this bank credit by these honest money chaps. But there is limit, and this gas-bag will explode one of these fine days. It will come like clap of thun- der in clear thunder sky, so suddenly that the people won't see where the lightning comes from at first, but they will find out and then will come the judgment, but there will be no resur- rection of this bank credit monster no, not even an attempt, so furious will be an angered people.
 What does this bank credit imitation mean? It means temporary prosperity to the country. It also means the piling up of all sorts of debts to be paid in few years hence. The money lenders are sowing the seed of a pros perity which they will ruthlessly har- vest when ripe, just as they have done many times before and will continue to do so long as the people give them that privilege, which includes the ability to
