sometimes spoken of as the inventor of the
steam engine. This is not strictly correct.
The steam engine existed before the time of
Watt, but it was very imperfect, and so con-
structed as to be of no real practical advant-
age. The steam engines of Savery and
Newcomer were in use, but so defective
were they that they ranked no higher than
the windmill and ordinary water wheel.
Watt improved the steam-engine of New
comen. So great, however, was the i'm
provement, that it amounted almost to an
invention. During the early part of Watts
life, he had "a sore fight of existence"
The reward come at last, and he retired
from business and spent the remainder of
his life on his estate at Heathfeld. Here,
on the 25th of August, 1919, he died, in the
eighty-fourth year of his age and was in
tered in the parish church of HandsWorth.
From Greenock to Glasgow there is a rail
road. The distance by railroad is twenty
two and half miles, whileby water it is
only twenty-one miles. On a peninsula
formed by the Leven and Clyde and about
fifteen miles from Glasgow is Dumbarton
Castle. From the Clyde the Castle is plain
ly visible. 1t consists in part of rock and
in part Of Notifications built on the rock.
The rock, which measures about a mile at
the base, rises like a wall TO the height of
GWO GU olhGy lCCVs lO
in two cone-shaped peaks. The buildings
consist of rampant wall, two batteries, a
house for the commander, and barracks for
one hundred and fifty men. There is a
small structure, which is popularity regard
ed as the prison of Sir William Wallace.
In addition to this there are the ruins of a
small circular tower, said to have been built
by the Romans. The history of Dunbar
ton Castle is involved in considerable mys-
terry. Its origin is traced back to the Ro-
mans, but to what particular year 1 did not
learn. 1t is thought that Dumbarton is Os-
slams Baldutha. At the the time of the
union of England and Scotland in 1907 it
was stipulated that Dumbarton Castle be
maintained. This is done, but only in form,
since the garrison consists of five artillery
men with sixteen guns in position. 1t was
once the metropolis of Strathclyde or Cum
bria.

DOES DEATH STING &?
TIE QUESTION ANSWERED FROM Il MEDI-
CAL POINT OF YIEW.

DIR. G. l.. Beardsley concludes that the
dread Of dying is quite as intense as the IN
stinct of self-preservation. "1ndeed, it is
not improbable" adds the doctor that num-
bers would care less about living were the
modes for leaving this world theme for
happy contemplation, or an innovation 10
the routine of plodding that was agreeable.
One is remarkably exempt from the crime
of hasty induction if he aftirms that there
is no sane or healthy mortal who anticipates
his extinction with any degree OF pleasure.
The function of dying is actually vegeta-
tive-We are falling to pieces like flower.
This very fact, that the process is chemical,
confirms US in this conclusion that the final
throe is as painless as the inconvenience is
nothing to the fetal pilgrim when he touch
es on daylight.
A moments examination of the way we
are to die will show marks of goodness IN
our taking off, The degree of sensibility
is proportioned to the integrity Of the It's
sues. An inflammation heightens it; age
depreciates it. Any defect in the nutrition
disturbs the comfort Of the individual un-
ti.the carbonic acid generated in the dewitt
alHzation of the blood becomes fixed in the
cells or is no longer displaced. The sensory
ganglier everywhere part with their lrrlta-
bility by virtue of this poison, and cease
10 COuuuCC CufTelllS. He CillCl1 Va uOooii
are being satisfied, and the process is con-
summated when this extinction of sensibil-
ity prevails at the ultimate fillaments.
During the progress of this dissolution OF
the nerve force, this creeping on of the
numbness of death, the Individual is rap
idly passing into condition of repose, and
instead of torture or pangs, a degree OF self
satisfaction of approaching to enthusiasm is
realized. The sensations peculiar to thea
putical operation of opium, hasheeth, ether,
ETC., are not improbably akin to the men
tai activities of the dying. Barring the
halluncinations experienced in the stupor
as it is gained on the subject, the moribund
is familiar with naught that borders on
suffering. This carbonic acid has poisoned
or narcotized the several ganglia, and re-
fux productions are interdicted. A con-
sulnmate analgesia prevails.
In short, the notion of pain is forbidden
the instant that any stimulus fail to eX-
cite response. The condition to this lr-
ritability is that the nerve centre and the
track be sound. If this vigor vanishes, re-
fex phenomena are atan end, and suffering,
physiologically speaking, is impossible be-
cause of the arrest of the function of the
sympathetic. Fortunately, for wholesome
study of ones demise, there are assurances
abundant from vivisection, the testimony OF
those who have been restored to conscious
ness and the atfirmations Of the dying, that
there is no physical recoil from DEATH

A MURDERoUs OLD HUMBUG.-Two per-
sons, father and son, the latter of whom was
named Eric the Red, having been guilty OF
murder in Norway, took refuge in Iceland,
where Eric committed one or two more
murders, and in consequence Of them, and
of his constant broils and feuds with his
neighbors, was banished and Outlawed. AS
the world was too small for him, he was
tempted to try to discover and explore new
land in the West, of the existence of which
there were rumors. He, therefore, sailed
west, and discovered an ice-bound country
which he called "Greenland," "because, quoth
he, people will be attracted to it if the land
has good name."
The intended fraud upon emigrants was
an example that was followed in his own
day, as we'll as in later times, for the imag-
NATIVE chronicler subsequently asserted that
'there is the best Of wheat in Greenland"
In A. D. 994 Eric and his son Lief, having
heard of new lands farther west having
been sighted by Bjarne, made up their minds
to explore them, and for that purpose bought
and fitted out BARNES vessel. But Eric
while on his way to the port was thrown by
his horse, and took his fall as an omen that
he was not destined to give any more Green
lands to the world, and he therefore allow
ed Lief to sail without him. But, from what
we know of his prOcliVities, we may be
quite sure that he had wonderful name
already coined for the new land-Ninland
the Good. Could words picture Il more at
tractive bait for emigrants:
How much of the story of the subsequent
exploration of Ninland by his son Lief is
purely imaginary it is difficult to say. All
that relates to the ship-loads of grapes, self
sown fields of wheat, and the genial semi
tropical winter climate Of that favored land,
we may dismissas myths or eXaggeratlons.
Where, then, was Ninland situated ?-fOp-
ular Science Monthly.
ARE WE Too FRUGAL?-The continuance
of dull times has enforced frugality in all
directions except possibly in the case of peo-
pie who have large, fixed incomes. The
result has been, says the Springfield tnion,
a curtailed demand for all kinds OF goods, a
great depression in manufacturing and a
general living from hand to mouth. The
banks are full of money, the stores are 1ull
of goods, men are just as energetic and am
bilious as ever, and yet everybody is hold
ing back waiting for better times before en-
tering upon new enterprises that Involve
increased expenditures. "Everybody" feels
that he might 60 to work and 40 well II
'severybody else" would do the same. But
sseverybody else" will not. The only way
to start business is for each individual to
relax his enforced frugality, little by little,
make such Improvements as are necessary,
paw out what money can be afforded, and SO
help to set ''everybody else" to do the same.
Depression is sort of epidemic and it can
be overcome only by an epidemic of hopeful
activity in every line that can be followed
iudiciously. There is such thing as being
too ecOnOmical.- al.-ETchange.
