A Question for the Doctors.

Every now and then facts come to
light which seem to conflict strangely
with the theories of the doctors. For
instance, at Howdon, England, a dirty,
desolate village on Tyneside, a boy
was born who at that time of his birth
had the following extraordinary num-
Der OF grandparents and great-grand-
parents alive: The grandfather and
grandmother on the fathers side were
hearty and well, and so were both
parents of the grandfather and the
mother of the grandmother. The
grandfather and grandmother on the
mothers side were active and strong,
and so were both parents of the grand
mother. The boy thus had four grand
parents and five great-grandparents
alive, each of whom was in active
work, earning his or her own livelihood.
Yet the village where these hale and
hearty grandsires and granddames live
and flourish is one of the most I'M
sanitary in England. Open sewers run
down the center Of some Of the streets.
Until a few years ago the water supply
was from one shallow we'll. Only one
solitary scavenger is employed on half
time Tor cleansing, repairing, and main
tanning all the streets. Houses have
been condemned wholesale as unfit for
human habltation, to the intense dis
gust of the people. Yet, notwithstand-
ing all these adverse conditions, these
families live and thrive as vigorously
as Jews in their Ghetto. What do the
doctors make Of that?

A Hint to Good Boys.
rFrom the Detroit Free Press.l

IFrom the Detroit Free Press
A boy about 12-years OF age entered
a. store on Michigan Avenue the other
dav and asked for the proprietor, and
when confronted by that individual
the lad hesitatingly inquired:
"I-T wanted to ask you for some
information about FL Mahdi. Man up
the street said that you were posted,
and that you'd be glad to help boy
along"
"Y-e-s," said the proprietor as he
scratched his ear-'Jess SO. III Mahdl
yes. Say, bub, Pm awfully busy
this morning. Ask the cashier, and
here's a quarter for you. L like to
help a boy along, but I'm rushed this
morning"
The boy went down to the cashiers
desk and said:
"Nother boy and me are seeing who
can find out themost about FL Mahdl.
Please tell me all you know"
"El Mahdi-y-e-s, replied the
cashier. "Hang it Iveread OF him a
dozen times over, and thename is very
familiar. Y-e-s-iess SO. Say, bub,
our f1oor-walker knows everybody and
everything. Here's fifteen cents for
you if you won't bother me to-day"
The boy passed along to the gentle
man mentioned, and said:
''My teacher wants me to find out
all | can about Ell Mahdi. Where was
he born-how old he is-what does he
do for a living please give me all the
facts you CAM"
The foor-walker looked the innocent
boy in the eye for long half-minute.
Then he pulled g. quarter from his vest
pocket, passed it over, and kindly
whispered:
"Not to-day, my son, but some
other day. They'll probably tell you
next door, as they aren't rushed +"

CameIS in Time Of War.

In a lecture on use of camels in war,
delivered in London the other day,
Lord Napier of Magdala said that a
strong, well-fed camel could carry $50
pounds including two riders, and even
400 pounds; but there must be great
care in padding the saddle for a sore
back tends to undermine the constitu-
ton of the animal No animal should
be intrusted for driving to anyone not
thoroughly accustomed to the work,
and the rear seat should be taken by
soldiers. The men, too, should have
a few lessons in camel riding. They
should be instructed to sit loosely in
the saddle, and SO allow their move
ments to fall in with those Of the
camel, as by so doing they would add
to their own comfort and that of the
animal To sit tightly and to grip with
the knees, as on horseback, produced
q needless strain on rider and animal,
and gave a less secure seat. In the actual
clash of arms the camels should form
the buIwark of the square, and the IN
ner part of the square should be pro-
tected by the fire of the soldiers, who
could have the bodies of the camels for
their protection.

Characteristic Female Thefts.

A pale, refined looking girl, out of a
situation, was taken into family the
other day, out of pity, till she could
''get a place." writes Jennie June.
The third day she disappeared with
the eldest daughters cherished bangles
and pair of $14 boots, made to or
der, and sent home for the mother.
The theory was too rapid develop
ment of taste. Had she been a prac-
ticed thief it was thought she would
have carried off also some heavy and
ugly gold hand bracelets, which were
equally within her reach. But her
tastes were aesthetic, and she took
those things that appealed to them.
1t is said that male thieves complain
that the liking" of women for special
things that appeal to their sentiments,
or their fancy, impairs their efficiency
as coadjutors.
In other words, few women arefound
who really steal for it's own sake, or
with single eye to what can be made
by melting down or turning over"
the property thus acquired. They are
tempted by the ''latest thing" which
is often worth little intrinsically, or by
something OF fine and elaborate work
manship, we'll enough as a possession,
but worth little to sell, and dangerous
to sell or to keep. Experienced thieves,
it is said, avoid these highly individu-
allied articles, which cost so much
and sell for so little, and prefer solid
gold or silver, in which the value is
put into weight, not into workman

PRO AND CON.

When ships come over the sea, my love,
Come over the shining sea,
Like madens walking miuuet,
-raimented daintily-
Oh what do they bring under each white wing,
What songs do the sailors sing,
While the breezes frolic along the deep,
And the crested pillows behind them sweep,
As over the sea, the shining sea.
The ships come sailing so merrily?
When the ships come over the sea, my dear,
Come over the stormy sea,
The cordage creaks in the whistling winds,
And the sails flap dismally;
And the sailors swear till the raw, damp air
Is visibly tinged with a sulphurous glare,
And the seasick passengers family Proan,
And the sea gulls scream and the wild who's
moan,
As over the sea, the storm swept sea,
The ships come laboring YEARLY.
