1. has been asked which was the first
steamer that tried to lay the cable, and which
steamer was finally successful:
The u S. S. Niagara and II. NJ, s. Aga
memnon each took one-half of the cable; the
Niagara was to lay the first half from Va
lentia to the middle Of the Atlantic, where the
Agamemnon would begin. The cable parted,
however, on Tuesday, Aug. II, 1857, before
the Niagara had laid its half. a second at
tempt was made in June, 1858, with the
Niagara and Agamemnon again, but again it
failed. In July third attempt was made;
as at the second trial, the two ends were
spliced in midocean, and the two vessels
started away from each other. The Niagara
landed her end at Trinity bay Aug. b, 1858;
the Agamemnon landed hers III Doulus bay,
Valentia, on the same day The cable died,
however, in Sept. 1858. In 1865 the Great
Eastern took on board the whole Of the third
cable, made a landing on July 90 at Valentia,
and sailed on Sunday, July %, 1853. The
Gable broke on Aug. l, 1865. The Great
Eastern grappled for it, but failed. In 1860
the Great Eastern started again, leaving Va

Academic Dress ut .nm u, .uEv.


The important question Of academical dress
has been engaging the attention of the coun-
Gil of the senate at Cambridge, which seems
to preserve more curious refnements than
the sister university. Persons TO be pre-
sented for degrees (other than honorary are
required to wear not only white necktie
but also bands-whch have generally been
laid aside by the clergy. Another article OF
what is commonly considered clerical attire
namely, the cope-appears to be the ortho-
dox robe for university business Of doctors in
all faculties but the council CONSIDERABLY
suggest that the university should provide a
cope for the use of doctors other than heads
of faculties, as Rogers court suit served for
successive laureates
On festal occasions all doctors, except those
of music, wear scarlet gowns and hoods, but
with difference in the lining, which ranges
from pink and cherry color to violet aud
light blue Doctors in music wear damasked
gown of cream white silk, lined with satin
of a somewhat dark cherry color. Pro
fessor Viliers Stanford is the proud posSessor
Of such gown, made about 1910 Finally, II
is recommended that, on ordinary occasions,
the doctors in the two new faculties Of science
and letters should wear the master of arts
gown, with a slight trimming of doctors
lace above the armhole on the sleeve, the lace
being placed horizontally for science and
vertically for letters Academy.

What Ais You?

Do you have dull, heavy headache, OBJ
struction of the nasal passages, discharges
falling from the head Into the throat, some
times profuse, watery and acrid, at others,
thick, tenacious, mucuous, purulent,
bloody and putrid; eyes weak, watery and
inflamed; ringing In the ears, deafness,
hacking or coughing to clear the throat,
expectOration of offensive matter, together
with scabs from ulcers; voice changed and
nasal twang; breath offensive; smell and
taste impaired; is there q sensation of diz.
illness, with mental depression, hacking
cough and general debility? If you have
all, or any considerable number of these
symptoms, you are suffering from Nasal
Catarrh. The more complicated your dis
ease has become, the greater the number
and diversity of symptoms. Thousands of
cases annually, without manifestipg half
of the above symptoms, result in cousump-
ton and end 10 the grave. No disease is
so common, more deceptive and dangerous,
less understood, or more unsuccessfully
treated by physicians. The manufacturers
of DR.. Ssge's Catarrh Remedy offer, in
good faith, a reward of $500 for a case of
this disease which they cannot cure. The
Remedy is sold by druggists, at only Fifty
cents

Notes in n Sunbeam,

Counting the dancing notes in a bar OF
sunlight sounds like one Of those hopeless,
never ending tasks with which malignant
fairies delight to break the spirit of little
heroines in the German folk stories. Some
thing more than this, however, has been
achieved by modern science, which is now
able to count the particles floating in any
given portion of the atmosphere and deter
mine what proportion OF these are dangerous
germs and what are mere dust. DR.. Frank
lands curious experiments have shown us
how to count the heterogeneous and now
John Aitken, of Falkirk, by totally differ
ent method, has been enabled to take stock
of the more harmless but hardly less interest
ing dust notes. Thirty thousand such par
ticles have been detected by him in the thou
sandth of cubic inch OF the air Of room.
In the outside atmosphere in dry weather the
same measurement of air yielded allie,
whereas, after heavy rainfall, the number
was only sci. That this power Of prying into
atmospheric secrets will eventually yield very
important results must be obvious TO all
Among the most curious discoveries already
made Is the direct and constant relation be-
tween dust particles and fogs, mist and rain

PHYSIOLOGY AND HYGIENE.
Many So Called weak Hearts" Are Due
Merely to Dyspepsia, Tight Lscing, Etc.

Merely to Dyspepsia, Tight Lacing. Etc.
A weak heart insists upon putting itself in
evidence at all sorts Of inconvenient and con-
venient times II its possessor finds himself
rather late for the morning train and makes
"spurt" 10 recover lost time the exertion
is usually followed by such bad quarter Of
an hour that he resolves rather 10 lose a
dozen trains in future than 10 risk temporary
suffocation or permanent syncope again. The
practical evils associated with weak heart
are innumerable and readily suggest them
selves TO those who have so unsatisfactory q
pumping apparatus.
But, according to The Hospital, weak
hearts are by no means so common as Is
often supposed. Many man who thinks he
has got one is merely dyspeptic; many wo-
man owes her symptoms to tight lacing or
insufficient feeding If the dyspepsia be
cured, or the tight lacing be dispensed with,
the symptoms Of heart weakness will disap-
pear. Even when the heart is genuinely
"weak, the weakness is not always due TO
special disease of that organ. 1t may be only
part Of a general weakness Of the whole sys-
tenn, which is easily durable The late Sir
Robert Christison, one OF the most eminent
of British physicians, used to smile Mt certain
peTsoIS WIN were Always CoiupiuiiiiHe VI
weak hearts Gentlemen" he would say to
his students when lecturing ondigitalis, gen
tlemen, the best tonic for weak heart is n
good brisk walk" Not a doubt of it.
The majority of weak, habby hearts are
weak and flabby because every other muscle
in the body is weak and tlabby, and this gen.
sral weakness and habbiness is due to want
of vigorous use. Exercise of the legs and
back and arms gives additional and much
needed exercise TO the heart, and the heart
grows strong by vigorous exercise exactly as
every other muscular organ does, for the
heart is muscle. If a man has no organic
disease Of the heart, no enlargement, and no
functional disorder, plenty Of brisk walking,
with occasional running, will soon dispel
his breathlessness and heart weakness, other
things being equal. The muscular inactivity
of the modern town man is the parent of
more i'll health than any other single cause
whatever
