years practiced medicine in Central
America, has written of the "medical

that country. Many of their resorts
are curious and amusing, such as the
administration of frog soup for all
skin diseases, but several are worth

Marshmallow leaves are largely used
in poultices and for painful hemor-

A tea of chamomile flowers is con,

The Clerk Wilted.

A few days before Congress ad.
iourned Senator Harris, of Tennessee,
a rather plain-looking old gentleman,
went into the room of the Senate CON-
mittee on claims to look up the case OF
a Tennessee friend. The clerk of a
Senate committee is always bigger
man than the chairman, or the presi-
dent of the Senate for that matter.
The clerk of this particular committee
had never seen Harris before, and he
did not like the somewhat imperative
way in which Harris asked for inform
alton about his friends claim. Are
you the claimant?' he finally asked,
sharply, NO" said Harris, 81 am
not" ".\re you his attorney?" still
more sharply. "No," said Harris as
quietly as before, 81 am not" "Well,
then, what interest have you in the
case?" asked the clerk in the high.
keyed-George-Bliss tone. "Oh," not
much," said the senator blandly; "but
the people down there sent me to the
Senate, and as the claimant in this case

could do was to ask about it." For

Standing in the gallery provided for

the three or four hundred men who
struggle and shout and scramble be-
low, the stranger may well wonder
what all the tumult is about, and
whether any real business can be done
in the midst of such confusion. 1t
seems impossible that these men can
understand each other. They are
scattered in swaying groups over the
floor of the large chamber, and al
most every man in each group appears
to be In desperate alteration with his

voices can command. Surely no bed

Ancestral ReSemblances.

A recent writer on heredity points
out the fact that resemDlances will
crop out in families after centuries
have elapsed. There is a picture of
Governor Winthrop hanging up in the
Massachusetts State house. Ex-Speaker
Winthrop not long since took his seat
under the portrait, and every one was
astonished at the resemblance between
the old Puritan and his living descend
ant in our day. The Hapsburgs, tho
reigning family of Austria, have q
series of family portraits extending
back six hundred years. The likenesses
are extraordinary and all, or nearly all
the mouths have peculiarly-shaped
under lip. Henry of Navarro, the
French monarch, assassinated by a
priest, is reproduced in form and fea-
ture by his descendant, the Due de
Nemours. The Jewish race is another
instance Of certain type of form and
feature maintaining its uniformity
over eighteen hundred years. This ex-
traordinary people have been scattered
over the earth, and subjected to every
variety of climatic and local conditions;
yet in Russia, Arabia, Morocco, Ger
many, England. or the United States,
there is family resemblance which
mot be mistaken.-D DemoreSt.

BEAUTIFUL CORALs
What They Are and How They Ar,
Iished Ont.

What They Are and How They Are
Fished Out.
Coral, as an ornamental stone, was
appreciated centuries before its real
nature was known. At first 1t was
thought to belong to the mineral king
dom, and then it was recognized as a
marine plant, the coral beads which
were first brought into Greece being
thought to be berries, which had red
dened and hardened by exposure t.
the air. 1t was centuries after its first
discovery that an Italian naturalist
called these supposed flowers or berries
"Corallium rubrum, and scientific men
accept this definition as conclusive.
But it was a French doctor at Mar.
seilles who found out, not much more
than hundred years ago, that these
supposed flowers were in reality ami.
mails, endowed with the power Of vol
untary motion. When, however, he
communicated his discovery to the
French academy of sciences, his name
was concealed, in order to protect him
from the derision that was expected tC
follow his declaration persuaded
were even the men Of science that
corals were merely petrifed flowers.
The French doctor, however, was
right. Corals are sea anemones, that
have secreted calcareous skeleton and
have become compound by budding.
In living state, the coral branch we
see in commerce is covered with a
leathery coating of bright red color,
studded with small holes, out of which
protrude white polyps, with eight ten.
tacles, looking exactly like flowers,
which deceived the Italian naturalist.
Well, it is these colonies of soft-bodied
zoophytes which secrete the lime OF
which the valuable stone is composed.
Now, although coral Is one Of the most
abundant substances in nature entire
islands and reefs being formed of it in
tropical seas the particular variety of
red coral is comparatively rare, and is
almost entirely confined to the Medi.
terranean sea. 1t is there found in
reefs, a few miles from the shore, and
at depths varying from one to a hun
dred fathoms. The greatest coral fish
cries are those off Naples, Sicily, Sar.
dinia and Alglers.
Almost every year new bed is
found somewhere along the Italian
coast. A rush is then made to the
spot and the bed is soon exhausted.
The rush used to be so great, indeed,
that it frequently took aman-of-war to
keep the fishing fleet in order. Now,
however all this is changed; for, by the
new fisheries act, the discoverer of a
new coral bank has the exclusive right
to fish on 1t for two years. The value
of these banks may be estimated at an
average yearly rate of eight thousand
tons of coral, rendering several millions
of pounds sterling. The coral fisheries
off Algiers are under the control of the
French government, which eXacts
heavy duties for the right of fishing;
and in order to prevent the exhaustion
of this fishery the reefs are divided
into ten portions, ten years being the
time which the coral is supposed to
take in order to reach its full growth;
thus, by fishing only one of these
divisions at time, provision is made
for an uninterrupted fishery.
