ssThe Inside Track Woman.

The sensation of the city, says an
Atlanta correspondent of the Globe
Democrat, is the queer conduct OF
Mrs. Mary Grant. a lady of great
respectability. Some time ago she
began to develops passionfor claim
ing the inside of the walk wherever
she appeared on the streets. The
police were slow to take any notice.
of the actions of alady so irreproach-
able, but matters have at last reach
ed the crisis where her arrest was
necessary. She allowed no man or
boy to take the inside OF
the sidewalk, and when one
accidentally pushed his way
between her and the wall or fence
she assaulted him with her parasol,
and, if she carried none, with her
hand. The person thus assaulted
would be surprised, and quickly get
away to escape the remarks of the
people in sight. She soon came to be
known as the "inside track" woman,
and everybody, gave her a wide berth
as she passed. One morning
she assaulted gentleman on White
hall street quite seriously. shepulledt
his whiskers and threw bis hat into,
the street. The scene that followed
was ludicrous. The large crowd en-
ioyed his establishment as he tried
to disengage himself from the wom-
ans hold. This morning she went
down Decatur street showing every
man into the ditch who would not
give her the track. She was finally
arrested, and in response to why she
assaulted the men, said: Haven't
as much right to the track as any
body else; and, if it is my right ought
not to fight for it? Ihave a poor
opinion of any lady who wouldn't
fight for her rights. LUST think j
ought to have the inside track, and +
will fight for it until die"
The relatives of the lady are now
taking steps to have her put into the,
insane ayslum.

Feeding Coal to the Fire:

The throwing Of fuel upon the fire.
is generally considered as means
of augmenting the amount OF heat
produced, and taken as whole it
does have that effect. But for the
maintenance of a steady fire and am
even heat only small amount OF flu
Ell should be thrown upon a fire at
the time. The reason for this is that
coal is dependent upon two constitu.
ents for it's heat giving properties.
One of these, the carbonaccous. re-
mains in a solid state, while the 9th
er, the bituminous, is Volatilized. As
the latter process must be accom-
plished before the first viii be ready
for burning, the first effect of throw
ing fuel upon the fire is that of cool
ing. Not only must the solid
coal be raised to the furnace tenn
perature, but the volatilization
must be carried on. Here the
same laws come into play as in the
evaporation of water. The evapora-
ton and volatilization require more
heat than that accounted for in the
elevation of temperature, and which
is therefore rendered latent. Hence
unless care is taken to burn off the
gases, as they are given off it would
be better that they did not exist.
For it will be easily understood that
if the fire, which is due to the COM
bustion of the solid carbons, did not.
have to heat these gases, it would
give out just the same amount OF
heat that would be available for
steam making. It is due to this fact
that coke has been accredited, with,
greater heating properties than Bit
luminous coal, simply because the,
gases in the coal have been distilled
and not burned But when the fur
naces are SO designed that these gases.
are thoroughly burned, the heating
properties of the coal will befound to-
be greater by just the amount of.
heat given out by the combustion OF
the gases in excess of what was re-
CURED to distill them.

Rabbits in Australia.

The burning issue in Australia is
the rabbit. This rodent, which else.
where is hardly given a serious
thought, in that part of the world has
become a pest OF the most serious and
alarming character. It is estimated
that the progeny OF one pair OF rab-
bits, left undisturbed, under favorable
circumstances, will in three years
reach 13,718,OOO, and the Austria
liam farmer does not doubt the accu-
racy OF the computation Moreover.
they can manage to exist where stock
cannot, and even drought does not
arrest the increase of the plague.
Some years ago the ravages OF the
rabbit became so serious that the
State was compelled to interfere,
but little has been &C
complished, although Victoria
spends ego, 900 a year In the fight,
and new South Wales fIOO, boo. On
many stations 100 and 200 men are
constantly employed in trapping, and
yet the rabbits continue to increase.
Large tracts of land have already
been irreparably damaged, and even
in some cases destroyed for ae1icuI-
tural purposes, as an area of 400
square miles on the South Australian
border, witch used to carry 81, 900
sheep, but now supports none The
Government of New South Wales has
become SO alarmed that it has offered
reward of EOS. 600 for an effective
method OF destroying the pest. 1.-THE
universal Yankee nation has not
entirely lost its boosted ingenuity,
there would seem to be a fine opening
for some American here.

Doctor and Patient,

When | consider what the educa-
ton of a doctor entails, what endless
study and investigation, what pa
tient labor; when I reflect upon the
continual risks that he must take,
the continual self-control that he
must have balanced by continual
compassion; when remember how
he is ever contending in a face-to--
face and hand-to-hand encounter
with disease and death; think that
he should be an Industrious and
thoughtful, brave and noble gen.
tleman. To the invalid he is more.
He is the master mechanic of what
may be a very troublesome machine.
He is the autocrat of the table and
OF the lodging, Ornament and exer-
else. His advent is the event of the
day. His ntterances are oracular,
his nod Olympian. His learning is
boundless, his wit irresistible, his
goodness not to be disputed. He
takes the responsibility of living off
shoulders which tremble beneath it.
assumes the battle with pain, and
fights the sick mans duel for him.
He condones the cowardice of shrink
ing nerves and puts them to sleep.
He encourages and stimulates and
holsters the sufferer into shape
again.
There is no relationship on earth
like this between doctor and patient.
He owns me, owns at least this arm
he set when / was a boy, and these
lungs, whose every wheeze and sput-
ter he recognizes as do the. voice of
familiar acquaintance. The moth
er who bore me has not SO intimate,
knowledge of my peculiarities, my
penchants and antipa thies; no FRIEND,
however faithful, is SO tolerant ofmy
faults or has such aneasy way ofcur-
ing them. He reconciles me to my
self by a quieting powder, and starts
me fair with the world once more.
