Some of the Disadvantages of Travel.

On the other side, if modern facilities
for moving about furnish opportunities
for extending our ideas and knowl-
edge, they also lead to superficiality in
observation, which loses in depth and
thoroughness what it gains in extent.
We travel far in day, but we see only
by glances. Between the beginning of
the journey and its appointed end the
passenger generally stops only as long
as the train, or. at very important sta
tions, only over till the next train.
What lies between passes before his
vision like scene in a theatre, or is
lost while he sleeps. The guide books
furnish all the information he seeks.
For many the number of miles they
have travelled over is the most impor-
tant point 1t is evident that nothing
useful can come from travelling of this
kind. Another undeniable result is
the neglect of what is near and around
us for what is distant. Many people
know more of foreign countries than of
their own neighborhoods, consequently
their attachment for home is weakened.
From Indifference to disdain is only
step. On this ground are explained
the disappearance of old customs,
which gave fixedness to social life in
the family and the commune, the dis
satisfaction with the narrowness of the
home, and a relaxation of regard for
persons in authority and for older per-
sons, whose experiences, gathered in
the narrow home circle, are not al
lowed to compete with the assumed
versatile and superior knowledge of
travelled youth. In wider circle are
thus explained the rapid spread of the
fashions and a kind of leveling in life
and customs. The new STYLES, which
formerly went out very slowly, now
spread quickly through all classes, and
the differences between country and
city are disappearing.-Popular Sci
e1ace Monthly for July.

A book has been written in England
about America by q Siamese traveller.
and published at Bangkok. Moang
Thukhada, the author, studied English
two years in Philadelnhia, married a
daughter of "a gentleman of the trade
of keepers of Saloons" and returned
to his native country. 81 consider the
language to be the chief charm of all
America" he says. "Now, if l were
to write my book in my own language,
my people, having it read, will know
not all the English language. only the
American manners; but if my book l
write in English they perceive the
beauty, the eloquence and all the num-
beroEeness, as the Americans would
say, OF the language which l did learn,
and which they will desire to learn,

The Life is the Blood-Preyent Disease
Surgery the Last Resort-A Telling Letter,
Here is a fact for you to think over, viz: Med
ical science proves that the diseases no matter
now great variety they seem to have, proceed
from comparatively few causes. 1t is for this
reason that some single medicines relieve or
cure SO wide a range of complaints-some of
them appearing almost directly opposite in their
natures. When medical preparation acts az
once upon the digestive and urinary organs
ana also purifies the blood the list of difficulties
subject to its control is astonishing. But while
many things are said to possess this power,
those which actually do exert it are very rare
II is conceded that DIR. KENNEDY'S FAV-
ORITE REMEDY, of Rondout, N. Y, is the
most effective preparation now in use for all
diseases arising from a foul or impure state of
the circulation. Hence it is more than likely
that II the writer of the following letter had

Where the Scorpion Gets His Poison

When he strikes you with the end of
his tail, like wasp, he exudes ven-
omous liquid, and man might better
hold red-hot iron in his hand than to
get tenth part of drop of this liquid
into his blood. 1t is not necessarily
fatal, particularly in the Bahamas; but
it condenses the heat of forty furnaces.
In some parts of South America scor-
pion bites are frequently fatal, but 1
have not heard of any one having been
killed by them in Nassau. This is
easily accounted for. The scorpion
likes to feed on decayed wood. In
South America, where dye-woods and
other poisonous woods abound, the
scorpion feeds upon them, and thus
work into themselves a good supply of
outside poison, which, taken together
with his naturally poisonous liquid,
does its work for whoever is unfortun-
ate enough to be stung. But, in Mas
sau, such poisonous woods are few,
and the scorpions have to fatten them
selves respectfully on pine. cedar and
mahogany from Nassau Letter.
