A Spot in the Ber,uudas.

The Queens Stairway, the lake that
flames up like a vast sheet of damp sui
phur when an oar is thrust into it at
night, the pineapple jungles, the sponge
fishers, the gardens in plain sight be-
meath the sea-these are all very inter-
esting, though it would seem that the
climate, the luxuriant vegetation, and
the ravishing beauty, combined with q
good hotel to start with, ought to be
enough. To the man who was there
five hours it constantly returns to his
mental sight like dream or vision, of
something almost too reposeful, too
beautiful, and too strange to be real.
The prettiest spot of the whole island,
without doubt, is the little cove at
Waterloo, two miles or more from the
city. Imagine q placid little bay, whose
wateris colored like the rainbow, framed
in q horseshoe of white sand, fringing
the shelving sides of a hollow like a
huge broken bowl Of verdure. Picture
this, decked here and there with stately
palms ana broad leaved plants, orna-
mented with a pretty, toylike fort, and
a few tropical country houses. Add
the blue sky above the gaudy water and
beyond, where sky and water blend to-
gether, the dark, blue ocean.-Corre-
spondence New York Sun.

The Widows Bills.
From The Boston Courier.

From The Boston Courier.
DR.. Kimball, of Saco, Me-, who is one
OF the oldest and most widely known
practitioners in York County, tells a
good story of himself. He had atten-
ded an old gentleman during a lingering
illness, and about o year after his de-
cease sent his bill, which amounted to a
considerable sum, to the widow. He re-
peated the process three times without
elicting a reply, and then called. He
was put off from time to time, until pa
thence ceased to be a virtue, and then he
again called with grim determination in
his character. Come, my good woman
said he when the delinquent appeared,
IL have waited long enough, and must
have my money" Fixing upon him a
look Of whitening contempt and brand
ishlng her broom in his face, she replied
you've been here three times for that
money, but I'll pay my honest debts, ]
thanks ye, before I pay my doctors
bills" The good PHYSICIAN was so we'll
pleased with the logic of his debtor
that he receipted the bill on the spot.

at full speed for the point of conflict.
We arrived there just as Bees troops,
after giving way, were fleeing in dis
order behind the heighth in real of the
stone bridge. They had come around
The base of the hill and the stone bridge
into a shallow ravine which ran up to a
point on the crest where Jackson had
already formed his brigade along the
edge of .thc woods. We fonnd the com
manders resolutely stemming the farther
Fight of the routed forces, but vainly
endeavoring to restore order, and oul
own efforts were rs futile. Every seq
ment of the line We succeeded in form
ing was again dissolved while another
was being formed; more than 20, 600 men
were shouting each some suggestion to
his neighbor. their voices mingling with
the noise of the shells hurting through
the II ees overhead, and all word of com
mand. drowned in the confusion and up
roar. 1t was at this moment that Gen
eral Bee used the famous expression.
"Look at Jackson's brigade! 1t stands
there like a stone wall"-a name that
passed from the brigade to its immortal
commander. The disorder seemed ir-
r%etrievable, but happily the thought
came to me that if their colors wer,r
planted out to the front the men might
rally Oh them, and I gave the order tc
carry the standards forward some forty
yards, which wes promptly executed by
the regimental officers, thus drawing the
common eye of the troops.

Rules for Winter.

The following rules, published il
Farm and Fireside, are worth needing
by those who believe that IAN ounce
of prevention is worth a pound OF
cure:"
Never lean with the back upon any
thing that is cold. Never begin g
journey until the breakfast has been
eaten.
Never take warm drinks and then i'm
mediately go out in the cold air.
Keep the back-especially between
the shoulder. blades-well covered; also
che chest we'll protected. In sleeping
in a cold room, establish the habit O.
breathing through the nose, and never,
with the mouth open.
Never go to bed with cold Or damp
feet.
Never omit regular bathing, for unless
the skin is in active condition the cold
will close the pores, and favor congestion
Or other diseases.
After exercise of any kind never ride
in an open carriage, or near the window
of q car for q moment; it is dangerous
TO health and even to life.
When hoarse, speak as little as posi-
BILE until the hoarseness is recovered
from, else the voice may be permanent
" lost, or difficulties of the throat be
produced.
Merely warm the back by a fire.
and never continue keeping the back
exposed to heat after it has become com
fortably warm. To do otherwise is de-
.,.,blitating.
When going from a warm atmosphere
into a colder one, keep the mouth closed
80 that the air may be warmed by its
passage through the nose, ere it reaches
the lungs.
Never stand still in cold weather, es
'peciaIly after having taken a slight dc.
gree of exercise; and always avoid stand.
ing on ice or snow, or where the person
is exposed to a cold wind.

There is a tribe of about 5000 He.
brews between Damascus and Jerusa.
lem, where they have probably lived
since the Christian era. They have
neither city nor town, but live in camps.
No person of q different race or tribe
has ever been admitted among them.
Like the primitive races, they
have remained tillers of the soil.
They cultivate the ground armed
from head to foot, always ready to de-
fend their portion of the earth, from
which, with great difficulty, they draw
q meagre sustenance. Their ordinary
language is Hebrew, but in their inter-
course with others they speak Arabic,
but they rather avoid than seek straug-
ers, living on little, and content to thus
live in this sort Of native country which
they have occupied for many centuries.

The Pilgrims celebrated their first
Thanksgiving day in 1921, and for many
years Massachusetts was the only part
of America in which the holiday was OBJ
served. The governor of New York is
sued a Thanksgiving proclamation in
1917, and Pennsylvania was the next
state to adopt the custom. In the
south, the observance of the holiday
mas progressed less rapidly than in the
north.

Physiology Of Pain,

Physiologically speaking, pain may
be defined as the result Of direct pres
sure upon or compression of the nerves
of the skin, or of indirect pressure up
on the nerve centers. This is why a
cut made by a dull knife is more pain
full at the moment of its infection than
one made bya sharp instrument, and
equally why a bruised part may some
times he sensible of pain longer than a
cut by o keen knife, even when some
slight nerve is severed. Serious gun
shot wounds are the most painful as
we'll as the most difficult that the sur
geon has to encounter, and the chances
for making q good recovery from them
are p1oportionately much smaller than
cuts made by any instrument
nerves is aggravated by certain
conditions; their tissue contains minute
blood-vessels in which the force of
circulation may be so far increased as to
enlarge them temporarily and cause
them to press so upon. the rest of the
substance of the nerve that the acute
pain results which is known as neu-
ralgia. The close connection between
the state of the nervous system and
that of the mind is known to physi-
clans; in daily practice they now
see organs injured which were
formerly considered the seat of life;
the substance of the heart or the brain
may be wounded without causing death
OF inpairing the mental faculties; but
let a W center in either be hurt
and the result may prove Immediately
serious to the mind or mortal to the
body; even if these dangers are escaped
the pain will be intense. OF all minol
ills pain is the greatest.-Harper's

"Haggion Oros," the holy mountain
Of all who profess the Greek faith, oc-
cupies a most commanding position on
the western shore of the. aegean Sea,
Rising abruptly from the water to a
hight of 5000 feet, at the extremity Of
. long narrow peninsula, it seems to be
keeping watch and ward over the SEES
path o'and from Salonica and the ap-
proach to the Dardanells, much as Gil
bralter does over the straits leading to
the Mediterranean. The peninsula is
about forty miles long and has an aver
age breadth of six. It is connected
with the great Chalcedonian PENN.
sula by a narrow neck Of sand,
through which the Persian mon
arch Xerxes cut a canal for vessels
of light draught, vestiges OF which yet
remain. Beside "Haggion Oros" is
Mount Athos. Even before the days
Of Christianity Mount Athos had its
r%ecluses, for the solemn grandeur Of
the great bare peak and the weird as
pect of its surroundings are we'll calcu-
lated to harmonic with minds given
up to wild AID mystic thoughts. The
new doctrines gave a great impulse tc
this desire, to withdraw from the world.
and in the course of time the whole
peninsula came to be occupied by Greek
monks, who, under the Byzantine En-
perors, enjoyed the privilege of govern
ing themselves and their possessions
without the interference of any secular
control whatever. There was thus
formed a sort of ecclesiastical autonomy
that has endured to the present day.
The only indication of Turkish authori-
ty in Mount Athos is the presence of 8
"caimakam, who, however, enjoys not
the slightest power, his functions
being limited to that of a mere OBJ
server. This official has two gap
tiehs" (gendarmes) under his orders:
but they are more to do honor to his
position than to represent any force al
bis command, the community having its
own police in the shape of q body Of
stout Albanian guards. The admins
tration is carried on by o Council o.
Representatives presided over by n o.
i. their number, who is termed "Proteros,
or "the first man of Athos." This Office
is held by each of the members of the
council in succession for a period O
three months. The months follow the
rule of Basilius. No woman is allowed
on any pretense whatever to set foot il
the district. The prohibition extend:
even to female creatures of every kind
so that not a hen. COW. she goat or an,
other animal capable of giving birth t.
its kind is to be found ct Mount Athos
There is but one village, where a fluc
tuating body of seculars reside, who as
sist the monks in their agricultural an,
other labors. 1t is the only place il
the world resembling q town in whicl
no marriage or birth ever takesplace.
