The early Friends refused to bow or

In this there was considerable reason.
As a matter Of fact, the sect by no

honor was due, only they showed it by
tangible actions rather than by lip.ser-

Quoted by an artist good photographs

versation with reporter.
"There are none such, or at least very
few in the city at the present time"
"Do you know" said he, that there
has been revolution in this work dur
ing the past three or four years? Up to
that time the man who had been the
longest in the business was sought after
on account of his experience. But since
the invention of the instantaneous dry
plate process things have changed. Pre-
vious to this time artists did not engage
in the business for the reason that a
knowledge of the chemical department
Of it was necessary, and while it took
time to acquire this knowledge the serv-
ice commanded but about $40 per week
when learned, and, while it did not take
many months to acquire the knowledge,
no artist would leave his studio long
enough to get it. Now all this work is
done on large scale by companies who
can supply 500 galleries with prepared
plates in day. In fact, almost every
article used in photograph gallery is
supplied in this way, and the only thing
now to be furnished besides samples of
workmanship and furniture is artistic
skill. Rent need not be high. for an
artist needs very little light; in fact, he
can in measure supply his own light,
and he can paint his own scenery. This
the photographer can not do, unless he
be also an artist.

Frederick Douglass had something in

mana geable at first, but a few months Of
Covey's discipline tanned me. He sue.

to read departed. the cheerful spark that

Fatal Disease in Colorado Campo.

There are plenty Of strange cases in the
catalogue of every doctors personal ex-
perience. / ran across several some
years ago in one of the mountain camps
of Colorado, all fatal, and which, while
bearing certain degree of resemblance,
have not been to my knowledge de-
scribed as type in any Of the medical
journals. At the post mortem we dis.
covered in every instance hard, foreign
body directly in the rear Of the right ex-
ternal lilac possa or outer surface of the
hip bone. The foreign body extended
downward and varied in length from six
to eight inches, the end being tubular in
form and terminating in round, honey
combed structure containing from five to
seven separate cells. Singular, wasn't it.
By the way, each one of these cells con-
tanned 45-caliber, center-fire cartridge,
and the entire foreign body was techni-
cally known as a Colts revolver. These
cases were very common in Colorado and
the mortality resulting from them was
considerable.-Dr. @. p. Reynolds.

Isu Food or Climate?

Nor is 1t by any means impossible that
the improved physique Of our American
backwoodsmen, especially their vertical
increase, so confidently ascribed to eli
matte influence, may have good deal to
do with a change Of diet. The average
size OF the Prussian army officers consider
ably exceeds that Of the Prussian privates,
SO much indeed, that man for man, the
descendants of the well-fed and sport
loving German country squires are an inch
or two taller than the men enlisted at the
recruiting depots of the United States
army, though the medical commissioners
of those depots reject about eight appli-
cants in dozen. Squat John Bull is a
pawnbroker, and as numerous in Baxter
street as in the old Jewry. British lords,
British tourists, and British sportsmen
are as tall and bony as any New Eng

A Reputation as a "Man-Killer."

was told that many of the frontiers
men who have killed a number of men
are more sinned against than SHINING"
1t was explained in this way:
"A fight out here, in past days par
ticularly, means fight with pistols. A
man gets in brawl, pistols are drawn
and he kills some one. If this is done
fairly, no one thinks much of it. Then
suppose this man is unlucky enough to
get into another difficulty and again kills
man. From that time he commences
to be known and talked about, and be-
comes in constant danger of an attack
from the friends of the man he has shot,
and still more from a certain class Of
'rustlers who are desirous OF earning a
reputation as a 'man-killer' for them
selves by shooting somebody who bears
the reputation OF being one, just as east
ern pugilists are constantly trying to
knock out John L. Sullivan. The knowl-
edS of this kt cps the man always on the
alert; he seldom drinks to excess, is al
ways prepared to defend himself, and he
constantly studies how to shoot accur-
ately, and above all, quickly. Conse-
quently, any one who does tackle him is
pretty certain to get the worst of it. In
this way, man without desiring it in
the least, may be actually forced into
killing number of others. Montana

first is small. hollow cone of gold,
shaped like capsule, at the bottom of
which is a slide from which projects

a Silken cord. 1t is intended as a trap

orou. Promotive of pn.,mo,,..

The possibility that ozone in the at
mosphere may promote pneumonia by
irritating the lungs was discussed in The
American Meteorological Journal last
fall by DIR. Daniel Draper, director of
the New York Central Park observatory.
In his annual report ri 1885, just out,
the doctor further considers this topic,
and presents data bearing upon it in the
form of charts. In connection with this
subject he offers a novel suggestion.
Coincident with the wonderful rosy sun
rises and sunsets in the autumn Of 1883
and 1894. which have since been the sub
ject of much scientific study, there was
q notable decrease in the amount of
ozone in the air observed in Central
park. DIR. Draper thinks the latter phe-
nomenon may have been due to the
former. and that the brilliant spectacle
in question, by restricting the prevalence
of pneumonia, had some influence, per-
haps, ON the sanitary condition of our
globe.-SIelical Journal.

A Very Curious Religious Commu;,ity.
Early in this century number of Ger
mans under the leadership of George
Rapp, made settlement in Pennsylvania
fourteen miles from Pittsburg. They
aimed to initiate the example of the dici-
pies as related in the Acts Of the Apos-
ties. In other words, they established a
community having all things in common.
The family relation was regarded for
number of years. but finally the COM
munity became celibates, and the
husbands and wives lived apart. As a
consequence the membership became
less and less. At one time they num-
bered about a thousand persons. All
that is left is about fifty old men and
women. The community prospered in
wealth while il diminished in numbers.
In the past its manufactures were famous,
especially their broadcloths, flannels and
blankets.
Some years ago they bought some wild
land in Pennsylvania for the sake Of
the timber it contained. Subsequently
this tract proved to be the middle of the
oil-bearing region. Riches poured in
upon the community, while all the time
it is dying out, because it made no prose-
lytes and would not countenance family
life. Visitors TO the community tell
touching stories of the hunger for child
ren which these old men and women
still feel. The babes and little ones who
come to Harmony, as their village is
called, are passionately caressed and
wept over by these celibate communists.
In passing it is worthy of note that the
Shakers are dying out in numbers. They
make few or no proselytes, and the only
recruits they get are children they adopt
from the alms-houses. A history of
American socialistic experiments, such
as the Shakers, the Economics, and the
Oneida communists, would be very inter-
esting reading.-Demorest's Monthly.
