Castelar,s Expulsion from Iioma

Senior CASTELAR, gives a dramatic picture
of his expulsion from Rome, in the DAYS
before Victor Emanuel entered that capi-
tai. The landlord Of his hotel, having
received a domiciliary visit from the
police, went to his guest and asked him
IN a terrified manner, .'Why did YOU
conceal your rank from mer' .sMy
rankf have none to conceal 'sYour
Importance" IL am not of any conse-
quence." You are a distinguished per-
son." 81 Distinguished" said Senior
CASTELAR,; ''hahl you are knocking me-"
IL have kept the police from coming to
your chambers by saying that l would
communicate to you their orders"
what orders2" ''The orders to leave
Rome Immediately" Senior CASTELAR,
had written books that were on the Sin.
dex Expurgatorius," and besides he was
told that he was a friend a Garibaldi
and Mazzini. a democrat and revolution

Wounds That Ara No, Harmful.

A surgeon or physician, speaking Of a
wound, often says 1t will do no harm or
is not harmful. People do not under
stand this. They think the expression
means that the wounded person will have
fully recovered within a few days. That
Is a great mistake. The definition of the
expression, as the physician intends it, Is
that the wound will not leave any bad
effects, and that It will close and heal up
as sound as ever. The same in the case
Of the fracture of a limb. Many Of
them are harmful, because they leave a
weakened limb. II they do not, then
they are not harmful. In this express
sion the pain that must he endured and
the length Of time the wounded must be
confined to the house or led never enters
into the calculation. The patient mas
think this a little peculiar, and hat the
wound must be harmful because Il makes
him suffer, but not 30. The suffering il
o matter of course, the length or dura-
ton OF the confinement Is something be-
yond our or his control, but IL we finally
make him Us sound or perfect as he was
before the wound has not been harmful.

A Prediction Concerning Gladstone,

The golden wedding Of Mr.. and Mrs.
Gladstone, which was celebrated recently,
recalls a Renaissance of the day, now
more than half a century distant, when
Mrs. Gladstone first saw her future hrs-
band. 1t was at a dinner party In Lon
don, where the younger Miss Glynne's
attention was directed by an eminent
statesman who was by her side to a tall,
handsome young member Of prliamer,t
who sat opposite. "Do you see that
young mani" said he. '.note him werl
and mark my words. If his life isspared
he will one day beprime minister" Miss
Glynne naturally took keen note of Mr..
Gladstone, but they did not speak, nor
was it until some time afterward that
she made his acquaintance in Italy. The
prediction, however, has been thrice full
filled. and Mrs. Gladstone will probably
have the qualification Of seeing it fulfilled
the fourth time before long.-Home
journal,
