A Deadly Toothpick.


"Do you know" said a physician TO Herald
man yesterday, "that the great American habit
of notwithstanding is responsible for large
number Of human ills? Ifyou have ever noticed
these things much you have observed that a
good many people who take their meals at
restaurants or hotel cafes and rush out imme-
diately afterward TO business snatch on the way
a toothpiclk, sometimes several of them, and
thrust the little wooden spears into the mouth.
In nine cases out of ten they don'tuse the tooth
pick quickly and as a matter of business, but
they retain il in the mouth after all necessity
for its functions has ceased. They chew on 1t
and wabble 1t about under the jaws, and finally
the piece of wood is reduced TO n ragged pulp.

small particles OF the wood are swallowed, and
know of one man who was in the habit of
eating his toothpick. l became acquainted
with him because he wanted me to give him
something to heal his stomach, which was really
in a lacerated condition. The small particles
of wood that are swallowed frequently lodge in
the walls of the stomach somewhere and induce
gastric disturbance. / know of several cases
which proved fatal"

II death Is bat "a sleep and forgetting"
calm oblivion after weary years,
Lies shadows vanish with our last suns setting,
Aud life Is but the measure OF our tears.
Not thine Oh death the shadow that hangs DER us,
Chilling the weary brain, the tired heart
Lies shadows creep around, above, before u.s.
Al the horizons verge they all depart
Oh friendship sweet with thy strong arms enfold US,
Ward OF the blow from which sad hearts shrink,
Not quite 90 good as they who love would hold as,
Nor all 20 bad as they who hate US, think.
Take at its worth the umblest gift life brings usi
A jewel does not Away such appear
Weigh with our own the cruel word that stlngs as,
And learn 10 know the smile that hides tear.
Forever blest the sleep that knows no waking
The rest that blessed nature gives her own
To her great heart her feeble children taking
She soothes their pain and stills their faintest
Forever done the smiles the tears, the laughter,
Forever done, the WEAKNESS and strifei
oh kindly shadow Of the great hereafter!

WIN writing become a Lost Art9
boston Traveller.


Will the coming man writer Not at all.
There will be no more need of his learning TO
write than OF his learning to spin Writing
will have become one of the lost arts, and a
wholly unnecessary art, by the time the COM
ing man appears. His writing will be done by
the phonograph, which will be placed on his
desk as pens and ink are now; and whenever
he has a story, poem, an essay, or private
letter to indite he will simply talk into the
phonoeraph and send on the plate which has
recorded his words. The teaching of penman-
ship will be unknown in the school of the fu-
ture, and writing in the present fashion, will
be regarded as much among barbaric methods
as we now hold the rude hieroglyphics of the
ancients to be.

Cardinal Nswman's old Age.

Cardinal Newman, who is now in his eighty
ninth year, cordially receives American visit
ors whenever his health permits. He is simple
lately. even if he does not do still between 5
and in the morning, both in summer and
winter. He then says mass in a chapel adjoin-
ing his bedroom, and afterward takes his break
fast, and during the day presdes over the meals
of the fathers at 1 o'clock and at 6. On great
feast days-such as that of ST. Philip Neri, who
founded the congregation or of SITS. Peter and
Paul--the cardinal conducts the service of bene-
dictiOn for the boys in the school chapel, but
even this light effort has been more than he
could frequently undertake during the last two
or three years
