A Mock Polar-Bear Hunt.

The mock polar-bear hunt is a favor
lite game among the Esquimau boys.
A few lines will describe it. One of the
boys of the village gets a polar-bear
robe, and wrapping it around him after
he is out among the ice.hummocks
about the village, he comes crawling
along some sledge-path near the igloos,
when he is discovered by the dogs and
surrounded. This is likely to be very
rough sport; for the boys take their
spears and iab away at their brother in
the bear robe, until you would think
they would break some his ribs; while
the dogs, emboldened by these sup
posed brave advances, oftentimes take
big bites of fur from the dangling edges
of the robe. The mock bear rears up
on his hind feet and growls in a very
ferocious manner, until, worn out at
last with his hard work and with hav-
ing his head so tightly covered up with
a heavy robe, he finally falls over at
some thrust of spear and pretends to
expire. But the next moment he crawls
out from the robe, much to the disgust
Of the dogs, with their hopes of a ine
meal of bear flesh. Lieutenant Fred
,erick ScAwatka, IN ST. Nicholas.

Advice to Invalids Which Is Well Intend
ed, but Often Fallaclous.
That is indeed a strange idea that the
sick, simply on account of invalidism,
should take himself away from home
influences, pleasant relations and cheer
ing companionship and his accustomed
climate, for the sake of securing a
change of scene" 1t may have orig.
mated in the distracted brain of some
disheartened and unsuccessful medical
adviser, as the most available mean of
having a patient of a very critical char
acter die in the hands of a stranger, in
some different cline, advising Gravel
ing for health" Home is the place for
the sick, where loved ones may sympa-
thize with them and attend to every
want. Aside from circumstances and
conditions unconnected with illness,
severing the pleasant relations of tho
SICK, condemning them to hotel life,
among strangers, is unnatural, unphys-
biological, not to say cruel! The sick
can not well tolerate excitement, the
unrest which is necessarily connected
with a life among strangers, while it is
often true that the changes are too
abrupt, seriously affecting the health.
Ii there are any unfavorable natural
circumstances, if the climate may prove
u%nfavorable to some particular form of
disease, rarely true, it may be well to
make a slight change, one of latitude
rather than of longitude. 1t is gen.
orally injudicious to remove to any To-
cality in which the temperature differs
widely from that in which one was
born. 1t is still more injudicious to re-
move to a much warmer climate, where
the enerving influences must reduce the
recuperative powers, lessening the pros
poets Of q recovery. Modern science
has demonstrated the fact that it is safer
to remove to a colder climate, rather
than a hotter one, though all abrupt
changes, in all respects, are to be
avoided. Ii one is the constant victim
OF foul miasmas, breathing the noxious
/ gases of some filthy district, y change of
the latitude is imperative, if the locality
can not be renovated, made inhabitable.
When II has only an unpleasant home,
if he is denied the ordinary comforts of
life, has only unpleasant companions, a
'tchange of scene'' may be desirable, an
ordinary clearinghouse being an i'm
provement. Even in such a case, con-
slant travel is unfavorable t q restora-
ton, since there are not many of the
robust who are improved in health by
such travels. If one has dismal sur
roundings, if he is bereft of pure air and
sunlight, if he has no companionable
society, if he is constantly irritated, he
may safely ''change the scene" but
never simply for the sake of a change.

BuDDENsIEk MORTGAGES.
A Warning to Those Who Advance Money
to Iuildcrs.

The Sanitary World offers q warning
to persons who are in the habit of adj
vancing money on mortgage to build
ers without examining the structures
intended to secure the loan, which de-
rives additional emphasis from the re-
cent fall of one Buddensiek block in
New York and the enforced rebuilding
of others, which is now going on by
direction of the Building Bureau. In
the English case to which the Sanitary
World refers, q builder of the Budden-
sick sort of work erected in London
two houses, the workmanship of which
was far from satisfactory to the dis
trict surveyor, who complained against
him for using bad mortar, and had him
fined for the ofense, and ordered to
change his method of building forth
with. The builder took no notice of the
order, but completed the houses ready
for occupancy, and then managed to
obtain, as builders know how to do, Il
large loan upon them, giving a mort
gage in return. The Metropolitan
Board of Works, whose mandate he
had disobeycd, had in the meanwhile,
uOWCfCl, lAoGlUlCCV ICHu1 PLOICCulitSa
against him, aud obtaining a verdict,
with the necessary authority from the
court, it proceeded, after ordering out
the occupants, to demolish both the
houses, and with them the security OF
the unfortunate lender, who had really
bought the houses at q high price from
the builder, without troubling himself
to inquire about defects, which, as il
proved, made them worse than worth
less. The Sanitary World, while de-
ploring the success of the trick by
which the rascally builder shifted the
consequences of his misdecds upon the
innocent MORTGAGE, points out that the
latter, by taking the prccaution to in
quire of the district surveyor as to the
character of the houses, might easily
have ascertained that they were not
only defective but had been actually
condemned and ordered to be taken
down, and would thus have been warned
against throwing away his money in a
loan upon them, and truly says that
Notwithstanding the hardship to tina
mortgage, his want of prudence should
not be allowed to interfere with the
public welfare, which unquestionably
demanded the destruction of the build
ings.-Amerscan ArcA1tect.

1EasHsssssT Putrefaction.

At a recent meeting of the Glasgow
Philosophical Society Prof. McKendrick
and MI. ]. J. Coleman gave an ac-
count of some recent experiments on
the effect of low temperatures on the
putrefactive process and on vital pho
nomena. They found that the contin-
ued exposure of putrescible fluids to 8
temperature OF one hundred and twenty
degrees below zero did not prevent
putrefaction, showing that the micro
organisms causing patle Il ton are ! NOT
perature probably lower than any pre-
vailing in the Polar regions, SO that
micro-organisms might exist even there
They hoped to continue their expert
ments with an atmosphere at a s.m-
pe%rature of one hundred and fifty de-
grees below zero.-M. Y Post.
