Tho Candahar RAILWAYS Importance.

The public generally were well informed
of the progress of the Russian railway to
Samarcand, but little has been known re-
garding still more important line that
the British have been constructing to
Central Asia from the opposite direction.
Since Jan. this new line, the Candahar
railway, has been opened to Killa Abdulla,
5000 feet above the sea level; and there Is
now daily service of trains between
Killa Abdulla and Quetta, with caravans
from Candahar and Herat stopping at the
former place to unload and transport their
goods onward by rail From Quetta to
Candahar the railway will run in almost a
straight line and its construction will be
exceptionally difficult and expensive.
From Gulistan to Chaman, on the
Candahar side of the Kwaja Amran range,
the distance Is only thirty miles, but tho
estimated cost of the railway along this
part of its course is 100000 per milo
Pending the construction of the permanent
line, 1t Is the intention to open up com
munication with Chaman as soon as
possible. by means of light mountain
railway. Ono of the chief features Of the
permanent line Is tunnel two and half
miles long, upon which English miners
will be employed.
The Importance of this railway to the
Anglo Indian empire can scarcely be over
estimated. AS commercial enterprise
alone, 1t cannot fail to be of the greatest
utility, as by it the productions Of central
Asia can find q more direct outlet to tho
sea than by any other route. But the In.
dian and British statesman will regard it
as mainly Of Importance as means for tho
transportation of troops to the confines of
India and central Asia in the event of any
threatening advance on the part of Rus
sia, or In case Of rupture with that
ower.--Franh Leslie's.

1t is trouble, not good, that arises from
old letters. package has fallen into my
care to he disposed of as thought best.
1t contains letters, bills, receipts, some
papers of value and others worthless. In
order to sort the ohaff from the wheat,
they must be carefully examined. All,
what unthought of secrets they disclose
family troubles Of which the world never
dreamed; bitter heartaches where we
thought all was serene; love letters,
sacred for their time and place, ridiculous
now, whispered suspicion of slander
upon name we thought was pure as
snow, and we are left to wonder whether
1t Is true or false. Old letters What
can they be good forH Their mission is

pshawl as If these would be tonic you
needed at such a timel Better far a
breath of pure air. We are all prone to
brood too much at such times and need
no such help in that direction Let this
plea for the burning of letters be strong
one. Business letters should be filed and
labeled. Have blank book into which
to copy such dates or extracts as may be
of value in the future for references
This can be done when letters are an.
swered. Then burn them and see the
ashes. It Is the sorrows instead of the
Joys, that most letters contain. They are
the safety valve for deep feeling from
friend to friend, good In their time, but
sometimes worse than useless in the fu-
ture. Every day brings new experiences.
We are constantly changing, and in many
cases would be ashamed of our own let

A specid against drunkenness has often
been sought, but as yet they. has been
found no remedy except that of moral de-
termination, Alth ough the reform ac-
complshed In this manner is encourag-
ing. there is wide field for the use Of
some physical method for the reclamation
of besotted individuals who cannot be
reached by moral suasion. DR.. Portug-
slow, well known physician and writer,
declares that the desire for drink is dis
ease, and must be treated by means f ther-
apeutics He claims that as quinine Is q
specific against fever, so are subcutaneous
injections of strychnine the absolute
means of curing the passion for intoxi-
eating liquors. 1t appears that so far
back as 1878 this method of treating was
employed, but 1t attracted little attention.
In 1884 the celebrated French physi-
clan, Dujardin- -Boimetz, was most zeal
GUS advocate of this method of treatment.
The preparation and application of the
injection is quite simple One grain Of
strychnine is dissolved in 200 drops Of
water and the patient receives an injec-
ton of five drops daily for week or ten
days. The effects of the injections are
surprising; after two or three Of them the
drunkard has an appetite and is able to
sleep. If, after the expiration of several
turns, the result of Indulgence is SO dis
tressing, palpitation of the heart, head
ache and other equally disturbing effects.
that it becomes impossible for the inebri-
ate to touch another drop. 1t is recon-
mended to make the injections during the
drunken sleep, when the patient awakens
In the full possession of his senses and
will ask for second or third application.
1t would be an admirable arrangement If
the police surgeons would test this

brought into the various stations. If
this means of treating the deadly sin of
intemperance be as successful as it's advo-

Cider In the NIetronolia.

should imagine that cider had become
as popular beverage in New York as it
is In Maine. Wherever go in the hum
bier quarters of the town come on cider
shops. They vend buttermilk and pop
beer, too, believe, but cider Is certainly
their chief commodity, and have never
seen cider shop In which did not also
see people drinking cider Some fifteen
years ago a speculative individual opened
cider shop In an unleasod store on Broad
way. The beverage was advertised as
manufactured on the promises, and In the
window of the shop was miniature cider
press, which was operated by miserable
big dog that toiled on treaa mill all day
and half the night through. Ibelieve Mr.

Fluency of the Sign Language.

Before spoken language was there were
signs before speech stepped in there were
gestures the face did duty as revealer
of the emotions, and tho hands accom-
panied by gesticulation. as that of ideas,
and for all the ordinary purposes of life
the code Is amply sufficient. Watch two
deaf people as they use il. They have
plenty to say and know how to say it.
Their talk may not last wore than ten
minutes, but If all that talk was written
out 1t would cover an astonishingly large
amount of space, Politics, social topics,
all may have been discussed with equal
facility.
True, tho deaf make free use Of the
manual alphabet in connection with signs,
but the cause lies rather in muscular
WEAKNESS than in any inadequacy on the
part of the signs themselves. As devel-
oped In the schools for the deaf, the sign
language has capacity for thought ex-
preston absolutely marvellous Moreover
II is swift, omprehensiye-and yet con
densed-and above all, 1t is silent. A
universally understood code Of signs
would do away with tho strident and oft.
time profane efforts TO understand and be
understood, which are at once the dread
and torment of the average tourist. t.-De.
