,owever from what he had learned, that the

Mr.. Vincent said that upon thorough
examination of the matter, ne had changed
si. opinion and would vote for the Smead
system.
Mr.. Strauss concurred with the previous

Mr.. w F. Carna said that the school r.

cannot believe that nature has placed

for tho state that all should do it who

at all doubtful.
What is to be tho result? That is tho
crucial question. On tho physical health
of the educated woman it will DC bene-
fetal. Observation, so far as it is now
possible, shows that the work of tho full

DR.. Nansen,s Exploring Expedition.

News has come of tho Greenland ex-
petition under DR.. Nansen. 1t appears
that he and his six companions landed
on the cast coast Of Greenland on the
18th ultimo, in latitude G5 dogs. 80 min.
This is nearly two degrees south of the
Arctic circle, and will imply q journey
Of somo 500 miles across to the west
coast. The two Laplanders who accom-
panied Nordenskjold in his second unsuc-
cessful attempt to cross Greenland lin
higher latitude and from the west side)
managed to advance eastward some 140
miles and attained height Of over $500
feet, whence they got view of what APP
pealed to be an endless snow field.
Should DR.. Nansen's party reach this
snow field, their chances Of success will
be great, Us they are all famous snowshoc
walkers, and have frequently crossed tho
Norwegian mountains in tho depth Of
winter. They could not have landed in
Greenland at better time; for they
escape the short and thoroughly dis
agreeable sub-arctic SUMMER. What has
been described as an endless snow field Is
no doubt the water shed Of tho innum-
cradle Greenland glacier streams, tho
Examinations of which form such q strilrs
ing feature Of the Greenland coast.
Should this prove to be the case, the
ultimate discovery of q vast inland sea or
series Of great lakes is not improbable

The Consumption Of on,n,ns.

Some writers have claimed that the
use of quinine establishes what is termed
o quinine habit, or a morbid desire for
the drug, the qualification of which is
essential to the normal well being of the
victim. When the large consumption of
quinine is considered, however, and the
fact that no well authenticated cases APP
pear i'll the voluminous literature da-
scriptive of the nature and action of this
drug, the absurdity of the claim will be
apparent, and the following case which
is reported by a correspondent of Tho
Druggists Circular will be regarded
rather as an interesting anomaly than as
proof that the quinine habit practically
has any existence in fact:
IA few yers ago. while clerking in
small town in .,orth Missouri, there was
young drygools merchant located next
door to the s ore in which was en-
ployed. This Young man would come into
the store from four to six times daily, walk
back to where the quinine bottle was
kept Gt was purposely placed in con-
venient position), and with the point of
a spatula would put probably two or
three grains upon his tongue, hand us q
ulCheA dilu Walk OUT, WITHOUT bdklng any
thing to allay its bitter taste. This was
daily occurrence during the time that
l remained there (nearly three years.. In
reply to a query from me he said that he
took the quinine because he liked the
effects Of it, and unless he did so his
mind became confused, and he was
scarcely able to properly attend to his
business duties.
Though many i'll considered articles
have appeared in print since cocaine has
been so widely employed, claiming that
the use of this drug established physi-
cally and mentally demoralizing habit,
the testimony of the most competent
Observers and the investigation of SO
called cases Of cocaine habit have clearly
shown that cocaine habit in the serse
that we speak of the opium or alcohol
habit does not exist. With the excep-
ton of a few drugs, asnong which we
may mention opium, alcohol, chloral and
hashcesh, no adequate proof exists that
the use of drugs creates morbid craving
for them uncomfortable by tho will

The viceroy raised his eyes and fixed them
upon tho monk as il he wished to look him
down But the latter met his glance with
an eye as imperious and firmer than his own.
ARGOS quailed and bit his lip. Pride and
passion counseled him to smite the monk to
the earth, but prudence advised him to an
opposite course.

dertone. Your advice, though not friendly,

mild, firm and generous rule won for him
the enduring love and loyalty Of Naples, and
evidenced the genuineness of. his patriotism

Pietro and Jeanne were united a few weeks
after the marriage Of Masanelo. Their
fortunes were cared for by their brave and
noble brother, and right worthily did h,
watch over their interests, without, how.
ever, sacrificing a single ducat of the public
money.
Dom Francesca remained the friend and
became tho principal counselor Of his foster
son, Masaniello, between whom and himself
existed firm and tervent friendship, which
remained unbroken while they both lived.
