blew gale from the northeast and split
the fore sails. On the 25th heavy waves
swept away her boats and to add to the
terrible situation the vessel sprang
leak. The men were dashed to the
pumps and for five days battledwith the
sea for their lives. The seamen were
covered with salt water sores and every
movement of their body gave them
pain. The schooner was settling rap
idly and hope was fast giving way. On
Nov. 80 the captain saw the schooner
could float but a few hours longer.
Shortly before noon the schooner Gar
field hove in sight and answered their
signals of distress, and, although the
sea was very rough, succeeded in trans
ferring the shipwrecked crew, who were
in a wretched condition.

Poisons In Food.

We are hearing a good deal Of late
about poisons in food containing protein
compounds, such as the casein of milk
and the myosin Of lean meat and fish.
The protein compounds are prone to de-
cay-that is, TO be decOmposed by the
action of the ferments called bacteria or
microbes, In certain forms Of decompo-
sition substances of a more or less poison
Gus nature, called ptomaines, are formed
from protein. 1t appears TO lie. in this
way that poisonous compounds are formed
in cheese, meats, etc. While the true
digestive ferments, such as the ptyalin Of
saliva and pepsin of gastric juice, are
very different from the ferments Just
spoken of. yet microbes exist in the di-
gestive apparatus of even the healthiest
people. and within a short time past it
has been found that poisonous compounds,
formed probably by the action of mi
crobes, often occur within our bodies.
The natural inference-it is not posi-
lively proved, | thinks that there may
be cases in which the protein of certain
kinds Of food is thus transformed into in
furious substances while passing through
the alimentary canal. Perhaps this is the
reason whycertain persons cannot endure
milk without pain o. nausea, and it Is
not impossible that many Of the cases in
which one kind Of food or another causes
sickness may, in the light of future re-
search, he attributed TO such fermenta-
tons within the body.-W. o. Atwater

A Sleepy Headed Duke.

The Duke of Edinburgh is getting up a
reputation rs the champion sleeper and
also as the champion boor among all the
royal personages Of Europe. Last spring
this sleepy headed admiral laid such stress
upon the enjoyment Of his SAUNDERS at
Cannes. on the occasion Of Queen Vic
toria's visit TO that place, that he refused
to allow the British fleet under his COM
mand to return the royal salute Of the
French s~quansron to his mother until he
had slept all he wanted 10, which did not
come to pass until several hours after the
time that official courtesy demanded an
acknowledgment in kind Of the noisy
welcome of the French guns. OF course,
he French admiral and the French peo-
pie were furious over this marked dis
courtesy.
But the Duke of Edinburgh sleeps in
spite Of everything. For example, it is
reported that recently the British Medi-
%tcrranean fleet arriveda at an Algerian port
and the French officials w0nt on board
he flagship to pay their respects TO the
luke as the commander Of the squadron.
But Edinburgh was ut his usual business.

Paris In the sixteenth Century.

Some curious documents Just found in
the archives Of the Paris prefecture OF
police throw an interesting and instruc-
tive light on the in which the
streets Of Paris were guarded during the
night in the Sixteenth century. To begin
with. there were stringent rules 10 the
effect that each house should have only
one door and should be regularly in
habited. This being the case, it was a
comparatively easy task TO order that the
jewellers in the different houses should in
turn keep mn eye ON what wa going on
in their respective streets. They were
not compelled TO tramp up and down the
pavement like the modern policeman;
the authorities were satisfied il they
looked through their windows and
watched all hat was going on below. If
the slightest cry were raised they opened
their windows and rang their bells until
their neighbors followed suit. The alarm
spread from street to street, and soon all
the bells in Paris were ringing, the win
dows were lit up, and the inhabitants,
armed to the teeth, sailed forth, barring
the road to the malefactors, who were
almost always arrested.
l need hardly explain that the Paris OF
those days wa liliputian in comparison
with what it is now; but what IN un
comfortable way they had of keeping the
peace IN the Sixteenth century! The
remedy was positively worse than the
disease, for it was hard that the inhabit-
ants of one street should he awakened
out of their first sleep because the dwell
ers in a remote avenue imagined that
something wrong was going on. One
would fancy that in some quarter or an
other some noise at least must have been
made every night. The slumbers of the
Parisians generally must often have been
woefully curtailed, not to speak of the
volunteer Waterman for whom .'all night
sittings'' were a stern eality.-Home
