Smoking and Heart Disease.

In report by DR.. Frantzel, of Ber-
lin, on immoderate smoking and it's
effects npon the heart, it is stated
that the latter show themselves chiefly
by rapid, irregular palpitation of the
heart, disturbances in the region ofthe
heart, short breath, languor, sleepless-
ness, and etc. DR.. Frantzel says that
If the cause OF these complaints are
inquired into, it is generally found
that the patients are great smokers.
They may not smoke cigars rich in
nicotine, but full-favored cigars i'm
ported from the Havanas. Smoking,
as rule, agrees with persons for many
years, perhaps for twenty years and
longer, although by degrees cigars of
finer flavor are chosen. But all at
once, without any assignable cause,
troubles are experienced with the
heart, which rapidly increase. and
compel the sufferer to call in the help
OF the medical man. It is strange that
persons consuming cigars OF ordinary
quality, even if the smoke them very
largely, rarely arc attacked in that
way. The excessive use of cigarettes
has not been known to give rise to
smaller troubles, although it is the
cause of complaints of different ma
ture. The age at which disturbance of
the heart become pronounced varies
very much. It is but rare that patients
are under thirty years Of age; they
are mostly between forty and sixty
years old. Persons who are akieS to
smoke full-favored Havanas conta4ue
to do so up to their death If we look
round among the better classes Of
society, who, it it we'll known, are the
principal consumers of such cigars, it.
IS astonishing to find how many per-
sons with advancing years discon-
tinue smoking. AS rule, affection Of
the heart has caused them to abjure
the weed. In such cases the patient
has found the best cure, without con-
sulting the medical men.

Grating Frogs Flesh Upon a
Man.
From Galignani's Messenger.

From Galignanis Messenger.
An interesting operation OF flesh
grating, which was one of the discov-
cries of M. Paul Bert, has just been per-
formed by a young French surgeon,
named DR.. Dubousquet-Labord A
workman had his foot scorched by
molten iron, and the skin was de-
stroyed over surface OF about eight
inches by four. DR.. Dubousquet took
four strips OF flesh from the thigh of a
young man and four from a frog and
transferred them to the wound. By
great care the wounds healed in few
lays.
The cicatrice obtained by the frogs
skin was soft, elastic and inodorous;
that from human flesh was a little
strained. harder, and produced irrita-
ton on some points. The patient has
aow been able to resume his occupa-
ton. The result Of the operation is

The Good Old Times.
le Bridgeport Standard.

From the Bridgeport Standard.
We often hear OF the ''good old days OF
yore." Why deprive children OF the
enjoyment of those old days? Why
not pass law forbidding steamboats,
from plowing the waters; railroads
from running on land; telegraphs from
sending messages; telephones from be-
ing used: all furnaces, steam heaters,
&C., to be taken out of houses and 9th
er buildings; allgrates for burning coal
to be taken out; allstoves to be melted
for old iron; all water works in
cities to BIZ left empty; the use of all
gas and other illuminators, except dip
ped tallow candles, to be disused, and
really 60 back to the ''good old times"
say for five years. Then, if at mid
night on cold, stormy night, a doctor
is wanted, he must be sent for instead
of telephoning for him. Ii one wished
to send a message to a distance, in
stead OF telegraphing he must write
letter and send 1T by stages to its dis
tart place and wait patiently for days
or weeks for the answer. When one
goes home on a freezing night he can
sit by wood fire, roasting one side
while freezing the other, an reading
by the dim light of a tallow dip, in
stead of the blaze of a gaslight OF the
more agreeable light Of kerosene. If
he undertakes a journey, instead of
getting into the cars and going where
he wishes, the best he can do is to
take q stage at four times the cost
and ten times the discomfort of the
improvements be forbidden and the
''good old days" be brought back,
how long would it be before an extra
session of the legislature would be de-
manded to knock the ''good old days"
into splinters and to restore the much
better modern days which we now en-
Joy and for which we ought to be most
devoutly thankful.

On Thursday last, in the English
House of Commons, Mr.. Gladstone
introduced his anxiouslv awaited
measure for the better government
of Ireland He spoke for nearly
three hours and half, and Was
listened to throughout with the
closest attention by an asscmbldge
which, although small, included all
the estates of the realm, and the
foremost men of the age. His pro-
posal to set up Parliament in
Dublin under the authority cf the
Imperial Parliament was received
with dead silence, and you might
have heard pin drop all over the
House.
The basis of his scheme is do
mestic Legislature for Irish affairs,
and no representation in the I'M
perial Parliament. Ireland is to be
transformed into a colony, with
some disadvantages and many re-
strictions. She will be as much
apart from Great Bri tain as Cana
da, hut, unlike Canada, will have to
pay her share of the debt and I'm
perial expenditure Mr.. Gladstone
would maintain the Viceroy and the
constabulary, the Irish to pay one
million pounds a year for the latter
Ue would also maintain the fiscal
unity of the Empire, the postal uni
ty, and the authority Of the crown,
This scheme will, of course. meet
with the greatest opposition, but
the country, when it has had time
to examine it, will admit that, al
though it will demand much modl6-
cation, it affords some ground to
work upon. The great danger now
is the second part to be produced
next Thursdsy-the purchase Of
land. This may, probably, suffice
to wreck the whole.
