A New York Character.

Some very amusing. characters are
conspicuous in the streets of New York.
/ met one OF these the other day. He
was middle-aged man, with shreWd
face and dark eyes. He was dressed in
coarse, loose stuff, much the worse for
wear, and he carried several garments
over his left arm. He WAS what we
call an ''old clo'man"-a gatherer OF
cast off coats and trousers, shoes and
boots and hats. As / was passing him
he asked me if had any old clothes to
sell, and assured me that he paid the
highest market prices. Then this little
dialogue. inspired by my own curiosity,
ensued:
What do you do with the things
you pick up?" inquired.
What do do with them?" he said,
with a laugh, Il get rid OF them-at a

"How?"

Cheap Wives


Young men desiring inexpensive
wives will do well to proceed immedi-
ately to Rochester, N. H, where they
will find what bagman would call q
full line" of marriageable girls at
prices that defy competition.
The young men of Rochester, like
other New England young men, are
not inclined to marry New England
girls. Whatever may be the reason OF.
this abstinence from marriage, the
Rochester young men recently claimed
exemption from matrimony on the
ground that they could not afford to
support wives. In so doing they did
not remember that the New England
girl is a reasoning being, endowed with
a knowledge of arithmetic and capable
of making estimates. The Rochester,
girls met together and drew up q
scheme setting forth the proper house
hold expenses of a family of six that
being, in their opinion, the very larg-
est family compatible with decency and
order. They estimated that such a
family could be comfortably supported
on S46S per annum, with an additional
allowance to the wife of $50 per an
mum for her wardrobe. Copies of this
scheme were made and sent to all the
unmarried young men of Rochester,
and the latter can no longer pretend
that they can not afford to marry.
1t is barely probable that the total
sum of S548 would suffice to pay the
personal expenses of husband in ad-
dition to all the other family expenses
The Rochester young ladies have, it is
understood, estimated that a mans
clothing ought to cost him not more
than $50 year, and that $3.50 will
supply him with all the cigars that he
can possibly smoke. There is proba-
bly, an error here. Only three hund-
red cigars at % cents each could be
bought for so, and few men would
be content with one cigar every week
day. The average New Hampshire
husband may be expected to smoke at
least S14 worth of cigars annually, and
in most cases $50 would not more than
pay the cost of his clothes
Ii We increase the estimates in ac-
cordance with these figures we shall
find that family of six can live in
Rochester, n. H, for about 1915 O.
year. There can be no mistake about
this, for the Rochester young ladies
have demonstrated it on paper. If the.
Rochester young men know what Is
best for themselves they will marry,
Rochester girls without a moments
delay, for as soon as it is known that
desirable wives can be had in Roches-
ter at such ridiculously cheap rate,
the town will be invaded by hundreds
of appreciative men. No such induce
ments to marry have ever hitherto been
offered, and if the Rochester girls are
made of good materials they constitute.
the cheapest investment ever offered to
the public c-Nel0 York Times.

Why He Wept.

A San Antonio darkey was on trial
for stealing money from a house Cd
Soledad street. John Van Slyck, the
attorney for the prisoner, in his ad-
dress to the jury, said:
Gentlemen, my client is poor man.
He was driven by hunger and want to
take the small sum of money. All that
he wanted was sufficient money to buy
bread, for it is in evidence that he did
not take the pocket-book containing
$500 that was in the same bureau
drawer. Ii he was professional thief
he would have certainly taken the pock-
et-book.
The eloquent attorney for the ac-
cused was interrupted by the conVul-
sive sobs of his client
why do you weep?" asked Judge
| Noonan, who was on the bench
''Bekase 1 didn't see dat al pocket
book in de bureau drawer" was the
reply.
Every body laughed except Van Slyck,
the attorney for The defense.

Morals Balance

Last summer, during the excitement
owing to bank failures in indianapolis,
was watching the anxious crowd be-
sieging the doors of bank that was
supposed to be in danger, when 1 over
heard the following dialogue between
an Irish woman and her husband:
Mora, dhraw yer money out"
AN shure, Patrick, won't"
But, Nora, You musht draw it out. D"
Faith an | won't dhraw me money
out at ali.
Mora, an don't yees know they'll
lose yer money for yees ef yees don't
dhraw it out?"
AN shure, Patrick, amt they bet
ter able to lose it than We are?"
Patrick was evidently overpowered
with this last astonishing and unan-
swerable argument, and they both left
the scene apparently satisfied. Fortune
ately the bank survived the pressure,
and its ability to lose Nora's balance
was not practically tested.-EdaOr's 5

What VivisectiOn has done for Abdo-
miRal Surgery.

Medicine in the future must either
grow worse. stand still. or grow better.
10 grow worse, we must forget our
present knowledge-happily, an in
conceivable idea.
To stand still, we must accept our
present knowledge as a finality, COM
placently pursuing the well-wOrn
paths; neither hoping nor trying for
anything better-happily, again, an
impossibility.
To grow better we must try new
methods, give new drugs. perform new
operations, or perform old ones In new
ways; that is to say, we must make ex-
periments. To these experiments there
must be beginning: they must be
tried first on some living body. for it is
often forgotten that the dead body can
only teach manual dexterity. They
must be tried either on an animal or on
you. Which shall it be? In many
cases, of course, which involve little
or no risk to life or health, it is perfect
ly legitimate to test probable i'm
provements on man first, although one
of the gravest and most frequent char
ges made against us doctors is that we
are experimenting upon our patients.
But i'll many cases they involve great
risks to life or health. Here they can
not, nay, they must not, be tested first
upon man. Must we, then, absolutely
forego them, no matter how much of
promise for life aud health and happi-
ness they possess? If not, the only al
ternatiye we have is to try them on the
lower animals, and we would be most
unwise, nay, more, we would be cruel,
cruel both to man and to animals, if
we refused to pain or even to slay a
few animals, that thousands, both of
men and animals, might live.
Who would think it right to put a
few drops of the hydrochlorate of CO.
caine Ga year ago almost an unknown
drug) into the eye of a man, mot
knowing what frightful Inflammation or
even loss of sight might follow? Had
one dared to do it, and had the result
been disastrous, would not the law
have held him guilty and punished him
severely, and all of US said Amen? But
so did Christison with Calabar bean,
and well-nigh lost his own life. So did
Ioynbee with prussic acid on himself,
and was found dead in his laboratory.
Accordingly, Koller, of Vienna, proper
ly and wisely tried cocaine first on
animals, and then, finding its beneficial
effects, tried it upon man with like re-
suits, and one of the most remarkable
drugs of modern times was thus made

AN UNHAPPY BR1DEGRooM.-Rlch T.
Webb. farmer, aged forty years, fell IN
love a GEAR or so ago with a Miss Pollard,
Of Bomansville, Ontario. Webb was aftiict-
ed with epilepsy, fact Of which Miss Pol
lard was ignorant before she returned home
to Bowmansville. She was engaged TO
Webb. Soon afterward friend wrote to
her and told her of Webb's aff1iction. She
broke the engagement some time ago.
Webb believed that he was cured of bis dis,
ease. He again proposed to Miss Pollard
and was again accepted. They were mar
ried in Bowmansville and returned 10
Webb's farm from their wedding trip. one
morning recently Webb left the house, ana
it was supposed that he had gone TO 40
some work about the farm. Not having
returned at dinner time. search was
made for him. His clothing was 1ounu
on the shore of Glass pond, small JAKE
half a mile from his farm. His BODY was
found in the shallow outlet Of the lake, IN
water but two feet deep. 1t is now learned
that on his wedding trip and on his way
home he was fearful that his disease might
attack him at some time again, and the
thought impressed him greatly. After his
death the trunk he had used on his wedding
trip was opened. In it, among his wedding
clothes, were found Woman's Grape
mourning hat and other articles of woman'a
mourning apparel of recent make. Many
believe that while oppressed with the dreao
of the recurrence of the disease he hao
drowned himself.
