An Interesting Relic.

In the Museum of the New York
Pathological society, under lock and
key, inaccessible to all except M. DIS.
or other individuals with sections of
the alphabet either before or after
their names, there is fragment of
bone, about an inch in length and less
than half that wide. Small as it is, to
the professional it is one of yhe most
interesting ossicles in existence. 1t is
piece OF the odontoid process of the
second cervical vertebra-the pivot
bone upon which the head rests and
turns.
This ossicle, SO interesting to the
embryo surgeon, was presented to the
museum where it is now preserved
by DR.. William Bayard, of st. John, N.
b., into whose possession it came
away back in the fifties.
The patient who furnished this in
teresting relic was "a child who had
received the shock which broke its
neck some twenty days before Professor
Bayard was called. When the injury
was fresh the medical adviser of the
stricken parents informed them that
the child's neck had been broken and
Il;,t us ucuIu was DuI IL ililtlcf VI u
few hours.
The child, completely paralyzed,
was placed on it's back and tenderly
guarded through the agonizing hours.
The physician departed, thinking
that the last of the case, except the
funeral. However, the hours length
ened into days, the days into weeks,
yet the little sufferer tenaciously chung
to life. After fortnight had passed,
the little one began to experience
great difficulty in breathing. The
first physician called was not notified,
but DR.. Bayard was summoned,
barely in time to relieve the patient
from death by suffocation. He found
that great abscess had formed in the
back of the throat.
The lance was applied and the accu-
mulated matter expelled and with it
the fragment of the odontoid process
proving conclusively that the YER
tebrn had been broken. The proper
bandages were applied and within a
year the patient completely recovered.

Taking a Philosophical View.

1t is told of a prominent business
man of the city that he bought through
a broker bonds to the amount of $10,-
600, and on receiving them put them
into the outside pocket of his overcoat,
walked to the head of Milk street,
where he became entangled in crowd
and had the bonds stolen. All this
was somewhat exaggerated case of
carelessness, but what followed showed
that the man was philosopher.
The usual steps were taken to dis
cover and recover the missing securi-
ties, but when some days had passed
without any clew the owner began to
conclude that he should never hear of
them.
WELL" he remarked to his broker
one day, when he had dropped in to
inquire whether anything had been
heard Of the stolen securities, and his
question had been answered in the
negative, there's one thing about it;
all L lose is the interest of the money"
''The interest of the money!" repeat
ed tho broker; why, you have lost
the principal, too, haven't you9"
20, not at all, was the reply; my
heirs lose that. Boston Courier.

Caught I'm the Brake.

The conversation related to a recent
railroad disaster in which several In
dianapolis people were injured.

of turning on the water when the car

were in, and was relieved to find that
we were ON level prairie land.
Presently the train stopped and l
hurried out of the door to see what
had happened. The car was the last
one on the train. The forward cars
had left the track, and were all lying
out on the prairie sidewise. The pas
sengers, rudely disturbed, were crawl

not heed the conductor, who stood on
the platform with me and tried to turn
the brake. The other car in breaking
loose had violently jammed our brake,
and it was immovable.
"'Help me turn this brake, the con-

One Way of Trade.

People who are deeply interested in
business" are sometimes accused of
talking shop" and bringing ques-
tons of trade into the parlor. A GER
tain author has a son, Rob, who is
greatly interested in traffic, and who,
when he is not swapping" an article,
is conjuring up some other possibility
of trade.
One day Rob was walking with his
father, when an acquaintance met
them, and asked, I'll, where can
l get the last book you published2"
''At any book store,"' was the an
swer. BUY it, do, and increase the
sale"
Cant afford thatl" was the jocose
reply;
"Oh yes, you can. They've put it
into paper, and you can get it for fifty
cents"

you get-tena No, l can't think of

extent"

fathers elbow, TASK him if he wouldn't
rather split tho difference-give you

Capturing u Tune.

1t is probable that there is not a
man, woman or child in Georgia who
never heard the song "Good-by, My
Lover, Good-by." 1t is a jolly planta-
lion ballad, used by serenading parties
in the rural districts until it has be-
come the midnight reverie of the sleep
ing citizens in many places. During a
recent revival in the Methodist church
at Milledgeville its tune was intro
duced to that sublime hymn, "There
is a Fountain Filled With Blood"
with a refrain, By and BY Well See
the King" Night after night this new
Interpretation rang out from; the hun
dreds of Threats that attended the
services, causing a smile to those
who saw its ccmical side, until
its novelty wore off, and it was
establishedas q fixture in the song SER
vice of the church. 1t is one of the
most popular songs Of the church now,
and tune that would have been re-
garded as dissertation Of the Sabbath
a few weeks ago is now whistled on
Sundays in good taste.-Macon Tele-

Into my chamber blew tho wind,
And merry was he there TO see me,
Because at thee had been looking.
When thou wilt see thy dying enemy.
Thou wilt remember death;
And then send back loving look
At life, es thou OF death art thinking.
Thou hast TO wander on tho dust white
roads
Where they wax thirsty;
And thou shalt sleep beneath the tent,
Where they feefcold;
And glorious Is thy lot,
AS eagles lot and sunshine,
One lifts one head to look at them
Thou shalt remember not
The maiden's girdle.
Nor yet their eyes;
And thou to them shalt say;
II must away"
For thou shalt be soldier.
Hark thee my chDd
Into my chamber few the wind,
And merry was the wind to see me-
Because at thee had been looking;
But thou did'st notice not
The winds high giee,
As thou vert listening to my song.
Thou hast not seen the winds great glee
As thou vast listening to my song
And Twill sing to thee
About the soldiers bands
Who marched away last night.
Whose parting we did hoeor.
To feel their footfan earth was plcud.
And proud was sunshine
To DO their sunshine.
And thou shalt be soldier, too, my child,
That earth may love thee, too. and bless
thee.
More lovely grows the corn upon the fields,
AS soon as the rain doth fall;
But earth requireth blood as well,
And therefore give thee to earth.
Thou shalt grow up SO brave soldier
That cen the mountain will lift up
His veil of fog to contemplate thee;
And never will weep over thy lot,
Nor over all the days that were not thine.
EARTH Unto thee give my child

Antiquity of Crackers.

Very few consumers of wheaton
products are aware of the fact that
crackers are the oldest form of bread.
Fragments of unfermented cakes were
discovered in the Swiss lake dwellings,
which belong to the neolithic age of
the world. Although the rude form
of bread was early discarded for the
fermented variety, yet in this, as in
many other matters, it was found con-
venient to return to a discarded and
apparently valueless process. Thin
unfermented cakes were found to pos
sess merits for special purposes. They
would keep good for great length of
time, and thus afforded wholesome
and nutritious food in portable and
convenient form. The simplicity of
their making and baking was also a
point in their favor. York Tele-

Protecrrng ;rhemselves.

The hotel men OF this state formed
their association in 1887. largely to
protect themselves from sneak thieves
and ',lead beat guests" President
w. d. Garrison. of the association,
says that in one year before it was
formed the proprietors Of the Astor
house had to pay for fourteen gold
watches stolen from guests, and he
himself at the Grand Union had to pay
for seven gold watches. But since the
organization of the hotel men they
have not suffered any raids from sneak
thieves, and Mr.. Garrison did not
since have to pay for single gold
watch. New York Tribune.
