The king OF Italy seemed surprised
on recent occasion when purity Of
nine Protestant ministers were pre-
sented to him, one as Wesleyan Meth
odist, another rs Baptist, the third as
q Presbyterian, the fourth as a Wal
dense, and so on. 81 do not uLder-
stand" said King Humbert, chow you
can all be ministers OF the same gospel
and yet have SO many distinctions.
Perhaps one of you will be so good as
to explain to me-" One of the number
promptly replied: "In your majestys
army there are many regiments wearing
different uniforms, and called by diff
ferent names nevertheless, they are all
under one commander-in. chief and fol-
low one flag. In like manner we Prot
cstants are divided into several denom-
inations, but we know only one chief
Jesus Christ-and we follow but one
banner, namely, that of the gospel Of
our crucifed and risen Lord" It il
said that the king listened attentively,
and, thanking the speaker for his clear
explanation, said: "You wish me to
understand that while there are differ
cnces among you on minor matters,
there is unity in all that is essential" !"
The Protestant ministers, thanking the
king for his courtesy, then withdrew.

A scientific experiment, not unlike
that performed on the soldier st. Mar
tin, by which the time OF digestion of
various articles of food was for the first
time accurately ascertained, has been
tried in st. Louis, not with view to
science so much as with reference to
prolonging the life of man who was
starving to death on account of some
malignant structure in his stomach. His
doctor informed him that he could live
longer and moro comfortably by means
of hole cut into his stomach. After
eight days the wound was healed so
that food could be introduced, the pa
tient first masticating it. The doctor
observed that rs soon as the patient be-
gan to masticate his food the gastric
juice in the stomach began to flow
through the opening, showing the in
innate connection between the stomach
and the early processes by which food
is prepared for it. Indeed, it was made
certain, in the St. Martin case, we be-
lieve, that the smell of food even stimu-
lates the flow of the gastric juices.

MoME0lors MATTERS.

The S2,1O0, ,000,000 assessed upon
personal and real property in New York
city scarcely tells thestory of the wealth
on Manhattan island, as real estate is
assessed at only sixty per cent. Of its
value, personol property largely escapes
altogether, and 500, GOO, 600 of church
and school property is exempt.
One million dollars is waiting for
some one. Police Superintendent Wal
ling, of New York city, has been requested
to cause search to be made for the heirs
or next of kin Of George Frederick
Rappold, who died year ago in Ge
neva, Switzerland, leaving an estate of
S2,000,00O. He was a native of Germany,
and was temporarily stopping at Geneva
at the time of his death. It appears
that he left no will. His wife got pos
session of the half of his property, and
the other half is now awaiting claim
ants. His immediate relatives consist
of family named F'Euhrer, who emf
grated to this country several years ago
and are known to have settled in New
York city.
