Is past, and DR.. Pierce's "Golden Medical
Discovery" will not raise the dead, will not
cure you if your lungs are almost wasted by
consumption. 1t is, however, unsurpassed
both as pectoral and alternative, and will cure
obitinate and severe diseases of the throat and
lungs, coughs and bronchial affections. By
virtue of its wonderful Alternative properties
it cleanses and enriches the blood, cures
pimples, blotches and eruptions. and causes
even great eating ulcers to heal.

Snow at San Francisco.

At San Francisco the last day of the
year they had bit of snow squall
Only about three inches of snow fell,
but that proved to render the place a
city of maniacs. Old and young be-
came frantic with delight. In their en-
thusiasm old pioneers fell on one an
others necks and wept, so at least says
the staid old 4Alta. All the leading pa
pers had from one to three columns de-
scriptive of the snow carnival, and two
or three of them went SO far rs to enter
into scientific dissertations on snow .sas
snow" its crystallization and other
features, as if it had been meteoric
shower, or some similar celestial phe-
nomenon. Snow-balling was all the
rage, and the Chinese suffered fearfully.
Some attempts at sleighing were made,
but they did not prove so successful as
to greatly excite the envy of onlookers.
Such snow is very rare at the bay.
There were falls of snow in San Fran
cisco in 1887, 1854, and 1867. but the
depth on this occasion was probably
greater than any former of which there
IS any record.

Mans Rroino

The human brain is absolutely bigger
and heavier than that of any animal ex-
cept the elephant and the larger whales,
but in no other animal is there so great
variation in brain weights of different
individuals as in man, and tits perhaps
q curious fact that the higher the civili-
zation the wider the variation. That is
to say, the brain weight in savage races
is more nearly uniform than in enlight-
ened nations. While in general way
the average weight of the brain is
greater in civilized races, it does not at
all follow that the size of the brain is an
indication of the degree of intelligence.
The average weight of the adult Euro
pean male brain is forty-nine to fifty
ounces. That of the female is forty-four
to forty-five ounces, the difference being
fully ten per cent. Statistics for Amer
lea very nearly coincide with this result.
There are examples of men of remark
able intellectual attainments whose
brains have largely exceeded the aver
age, as Cuvier, siXty-four and q half
ounces, and Dr.. Abercrombie, sixty
three ounces. Daniel Webster also had
" W. Aui 81 OltiH. L uttu VI hSdSolA
weighed fifty-three and a half ounces.
not very much above the average. On
the other hand, high brain weights have
also been found where there was no
evidence of superior intellectual capac-
ity. In an English insane asylum
nearly ten per cent. Of the cases exam
ined showed brain weight of over
tifty-five ounces. An excessively small
brain indicates feeble intellect, and an
abnormally large one may indicate the
same. Between the extremes there is a
wide range, in which it is evident that
intellectual power is more dependent on
quality than quantity of brain matter.
But it is estimated by several competent
authorities that in an adult male of any
thing approaching average size, brain
less than thirty-seven ounces is usually
associated with imbecility. In other
words, a brain of less than this weight
will not confer the reasoning faculty in
the civilized Caucasian, though in un-
civilized man, a rude intelligence may
spring from a brain of thirty ounces

Our Formulation.

Uur reputation.
A stranger leaned over the bar of
Michigan avenue saloon the other day
and whisperingly inquired:
partner, what is the population of
the United States?'
Hard on to 5O,O0O,OOO, l believe"
was the reply.
':It's over 40, ,OOO,OO anyhow9".
"Oh, yes"
you'll bet on that?"
"rd like nothing better than to put
up $40 on it."
"Well, you'll have a chance. There's
a chap down in the shoe store who
claims that we haven't got 35,0O0,000
population, and he is blutfing everybody.
III bring him up if you'll make bet
and take him down peg"
Bring him along"
The stranger went away and returned
with the buffer, who had no sooner en-
tered the saloon than he called out:
"Where' S the man who says this coun-
try has over 100000 population?'
The saloonist modestly replied that he
was the man, and in less than q minute
the two ten-dollar bills were put into
the hands of the first caller
''There's new map in the store across
the way which has the last census figures
on it," said the saloonist, and all went
over to see the matter settled.
The figures showed that the beer
seller had won by large majority, but
nothing on that map, nor above, below
nor behind it could tell what had be-
come of the man who held the stakes.
Indeed, it was only after the one who
had lost had also slipped away that any
body realized that they were confed-
crates. Then the victim started out
with club to hunt the world over and
reduce the population by one, but his
search was in vain.-DetrOit Free Press.

He Didn't Want ANY Odds.

Billy Epply has just got back from
Chicago, and tells very funny story.
He says that when the telegraph COM
pany notified the bucket-shop proprie-
tors that they could no longer have the
Board of Trade quotations, nor the use
of the ..ticker," except under the new
restrictions, one gay young proprietor
exclaimed:
.'rll bet they don't take my ticker out
of my office!
"What will you bet?'' asked brok-
er.
''Bet! Why, I'll bet my soul against
rotten APPLE" he replied.
"Good for you," said dry old cuss
who was sitting by the stove. ''pm
glad to find a man who doesn't want the
best of it all the time, but is willing to
bet on an even thing"
The roar that followed this sally
could be heard for some distance. Gin

Leroy Donovan, the convicted muir
derer, confined in the county Jail under
sentence of death, still maintains the
Indifferent demeanor SO noticeable dur
ing his trial. He is quite confident
that the supreme court will grant him
a new trial, but upon what grounds he
did not know. He claims that If they
had obtained two witnesses for him,
the Harris boys, that their testimony
would have cleared him. When asked
what material difference their presence
would have made in the result of the
trial, he replied they would have sworn
that the money which he (Donovan)
spent in the house of i'll fame in Green
River wa paid to him by n of the
Harris's as the result of a gambling
debt. Donovan also said hat the de-
tective's evidence was entirely false.
He stoutly claims his innocence, but
does not care much whether they hang
him or not.-Journal.
