The Providence for 'Drunkards.

Drunkards enjoy q remarkable immu-
nifty from the consequences of injuries.
One sometimes sees a drunken man
pitched violently from horse, and when
the bystanders rush to the spot, expect
ing to find him dead, they are astonished
to discover that he has been little in
Jured. In his "Scrambles Among the
High Alps" Leslie Stephen tells the
story OF a guide who, while drunk, fell
over a precipice SO deep that a fall over
1t seemed almost c~-tain death, and yet
sustained little inju-y. Stephen accord
ingly gives his readers the advice neither
not to :*all over q prccipice, or to get
thoroughly drunk before doing so. 1
myself saw a man who had thrown him
self, while drunk, over the Dean Bridge,
in Edinburgh, a height Of about two
undred feet, on to the rocky bed of the
stream below. A sober man would prob
ably have been instantly killed, but this
individual, although he had brodcn both
OF his thigh bones, quickly recovered.
The reason of this immunity probably is,
that the nerve centres which regulate the
heart and vessels are so much paralyzed
In the drunken man, as not to be affected
by the shock of the fall, which in a sober
man would have acted on them 80 vio-
lently as to stop the heart, arrest the cir
culation, and cause instant death.

A sssfadmsu,s,, Legacy,

"Sirer' exclaimed . man In tho homely
garb Of q mechanic to Richslieu, the prime
minister Of France, as he was entering his
palace; "Sfre, / have made a discovery which
..shall make rich and great the nation which
..shal! develop it. Sire, will you give me an
"audiencel'
| Richelieu, constantly importuned, finally
ordered the "madman" imprisoned. Even in
jail he did not desist from declaring his do
%lusion," which one day attracted the atten-
ton Of q British nobleman, who heard De
Causes story, and developed his discovery Of
steam power!
All great discoveries are at first derided.
Seven years & . man yet under middle
age, enriched by a business which covered
the continent, found himself suddenly strick-
ell down. When his physicians said recovery
was impossible, he used II new discovery,
which, like all advances in science, had been
opposed bitterly by the schoolmen. Never
theless, it cured him, and out of gratitude
therefor he concentrated a part Of his wealth
to the spreading Of its merits before the
world. Such i'll brief is the history of War
ner's safe cure, which was won, according
to tue testimony Of eminent persons, the most
deserved reputa tion ever accorded to any
known compound, and which is finally win
ming on its merits alone tho approval Of the
most conservative practitioners. Its fame
now belts the globe.-The Herald.

In millinery the novelties are legion.
Hats and bonnets are covered with

made in wool, or netting made of cord.
Silk beaver hats and bonnets are to

with crowns diminishing to a point,
are coming in once more. It is curious
n Paris to see the height which hats
and bonnets have reached; they tower
six inches above the face, and are
s~ingularly u~nbecoming to English
physiognomy. The feathers in hats in
the French capital are placed at the
side, seven or eight together, while in
front there is a narrow oblong metal
buckle, at least four inches deep. Felt
hats and bonnets are to be had in every
shade; light blue, light green, grass
green, or heliotrope-even bright yell

Language OF Compliment.


The common courtesies of inter-
course among people are always of in
terest, for they disclose a great deal Of
native character and cultivation.
Rarely are these carried to so high a
point of refinement as among the ladies
of Quito. A late American Minister
to Ecuador gives this specimen Of a
message sent by n lady of that city
to another:
Co." she says to her servant, ito
the Sonora So-and-So, and tell her that
she is my heart and the dear little
friend of my soul; tell her that 1 am
dying for not having seen her, and
ask her why she does not come to see
me. Tell her that 1 have been wait
ing for her for more than a week, and
that I send her my best respects and
considerations; and ask her how she
is, and how her husband is, and how
her children are, and whether they are
all well in the family. And tell her
that she is my little love, and ask her
if she will be kind enough to send me
that pattern which she promised me

called in n of the leading stores and
bought some silks and laces, giving
the clerk her name as Miss Beatrice

face and recall the fact of her mar
riage. Still he was a good clerk, and
made no comment or suggestion. A
few minutes afterward the lady re-
