Do Not Eat Too OuIckIy.

It IA a mistake to cat quickly Masti-
cation performed in haste must be i'm
perfect even with the best of teeth, and
due admixture of salivary secretion with
the food can not take place. When a
huge mass of inadequately crushed mus
cular fiber, or undivided solid material
of any description, is thrown into the
stomach, it acts as mechanical irritant
and sets up condition in the mucous
membrane lining of that organ which
greatly impedes, if it does notaltogether
prevent, the process of digestion. When
the practice of eating quickly and fill
ing the stomach with unprepared food
is habitual, the digestive organ is rem
dered incapable of performing its proper
functions. Either a much larger guam
tity of food than would be necessary
under natural conditions is required or
the system suffers from lack of nourish-
ment. just as man may go on for
years with defective teeth, imperfectly
masticating his food, and wondering
why he suffers from Indigestion; so a
man may habitually live under an af-
Fiction of hurried dinners and endure
the consequent loss of health without
knowing why he is not well or how
easily the cause of his illness might be
remedied. Courier-J ournaL

Midway in the harbor between Kings
ton and Port Royal tongue IF land
juts out from the peninsula toward the
reefs that bound the crooked ship chan
mel to the northward. Once this tongue
of land was bounded by strip of white
coral beach, and covered with growth
of wiry grass; now it is nearly smoth-
cred under thick growth of mangrove
thickets, pierced by narrow canals that
run here and there through the tangle,
and dotted by little lagoons, in the
lonely waters of which herons and peli-
cans and frigate-birds live an almost I'M
disturbed life.
The name by which that point of land
is known indicates it's history with
terrible hrevity; it is ''Gallows Point"
There in the old days of seventy-five or
a hundred years ago gaunt, hideOus
framework stood in the sight of all, and
almost always between the upright
posts one or more dead pirates hung in
chains, swaying slowly to and fro in the
breeze, with hollow, sightless eyes
turned now toward the white winged
ships, and now toward the long neck of
Cagawaya, while buzzardS, the "John
Crows" of Jamaica, sailed solemnly
round and round in the air above, their
silent following shadow now and then
fitting across the gray stony brow be-
meath.
Every one quotes Tom Cringle's Log
in Jamaica, and it is, perhaps, with all
its exaggeration, the best guide-book
that that can be found of the island.
The author lived in those days, and saw
most that he describes with his own eyes.
In one part of his story he describes
twenty-five Cuban pirates strung up at
Gallows Point in one morning.-Howard

| Some of the Popular Ways in Which to
Obtain a Handle to Ones Name.
Nowadays nothing is easier than to
develop into a Duke, Marquis or Count,
and at small outlay. l remember be-
ing accosted once in the Villa gardens
in Naples by an old gentleman, who in
troduced himself as Prince Del Citta-
DIM, and who after sundry preliminaries
offered to adopt me as his son for the tri-
fling consideration of forty dollars and
the expenses of the legal documentwhich
would have entitled me to wear the
name and honors of the Del Cittadini
family. The mans title was all right
He was the representative of one of the
oldest Roman families, and being dead
beat, made a precarious living in this
way. He told me that he had more
than one hundred adopted children, and
that accordingly there were that num-
Der of Princes of the Del Cittadini fam
lily in existence. The title of each OF
these was perfectly genuine as the
Italian law stands, and the name is
a most illuStrious one. In France
one sees every day advertisements in
the papers from mobiles offering to adopt
people who may wish to bear a sonorous
name, and these offers are frequently
taken advantage of by ambitious per-
sons sons. A case happened some time
ago where young Marquis adopted as
his son and heir a middle-aged grocer
who had retired from business with a
large fortune and wanted to do some
shining in society. He figures now as a
Count and should his Juvenile adopted
father die before him he will blossom
out as full-blooded Marquis. And
there are many other ways of getting a
handle to ones name without marrying
some greedy dead-beat. There is a
worthy American dentist living in Paris
at this moment who some years ago &C
quired an italian title and who is now
recognized as Marquis of the first wa
ter His eldest son is Count, the next
is a Viscount, and the third is a
Chevalier. Their drawing-room is COW
cred with coats-of-arms, and on either
side of the fireplace hangs a gigantic
pedigree which any one can get from
tie Heraldic Office in London for about
a guinea-PariS Letter.

Kingston is an old town according to
our New World manner of computing
age. In the year 1892 an earthquake
entirely destroyed the greater part of
/ Port Royal, and the panic-stricken folk,
: fleeing thence to the main island from
the plague that followed, gathered to-
gether upon the shores of Liguanea,
where little settlement of matched
huts marked the spot on which King
ston was afterward to arise in her glory
1t has no such wild history as the moth
er town; its romance is mostly that of
the luxurious pr osperity of merchant
prince and sugar king; Yet, thanks to
the pirate and SLAYER, it is not altogeth-
er devoid of another sort of story.
| Nowadays we read in the crumbling
docks and hoary warehouses a voiceless
history of the busy, prosperous times of
which tom Cringle'' tells, when Mr..
L and his brother merchants traded
sugar and rum and log-wood and pi-
mento for the gold and silver of the
Spanish Main and the flour and corn of
America. We read in the rickety tum-
ble-dOwn houses that helplessly crum-
BILE to decay in the heart of the town
the same silent history of the days when
those merchants entertained their
guests with princely hospitality
every thing in good style, wine superb,
turtle, etc, magnificent, and the COM
pany exceedingly companionable."
There we read of the time when rich
Jews lived in Oriental luxury, and
romance tells a story of a party
of wild roistererS rambling in
their cups through the streets
at night and trying to peep into the He
brew's house at the private doings with
in, and of how one was caught by
bevy of beautiful Jewesses, bound hand
and foot with embroidered silken scarfs,
and beaten, by way of punishment, with
pearl-handled fans scented with musk
and rose-water.
All this was very fine and pretty and
romantic, but there was reverse to the
picture, dark, stern, terrible. The rich
people lived merrily and luxuriously,
but underneath the surface two hun
dred and fifty thousand wretches
groaned and writhed in one of the most
merciless servitudes that the world ever
saw. There are other things to be seen
in Kingston that speak different his
tory than that told by once noble houses
now crumbling to ruin-things that
speak of sullea cruelty and mortal
agony.
In the museum of the town there
hangs in one corner an iron frame now
rusting into decay. The frame is ex-

the iron bars open upon hinges and
close with paddock. In the band that
arches over the head is ring, and in

THREE GRAND HYMNS.
Religious Lyrics That Stand i'm the Fro
Ranks of Latin Church Poems.

Religious Lyrics That Stand i'm the Front
Ranks of Latin Church Poems.
Three hymns stand in the first rank
of Latin church poems, and perhaps of
all religious lyrics: the Dies Ire of
Thomas Celano. the StGbat Mater of
Giacopone da Todi, and the Jesu dugctS
NemortG of st. Bernard. They have
certainly never been surpassed. The
first is the sublimest, the second the
tenderest, the third the sweetest HYMN
of the Middle Ages. The Dies Ire is
judgment hymn, the Sta6at Mater a pas
sion hymn, the Jesu duJciS Memoria a
Jesus hymn. All date from the ages OF
faith, so called, which built the cathe-
drals, witnessed the crusades, produced
the systems of scholastic philosophy
and theology, and, at later stage, pre-
pared, through the revival of letters,
the way for Reformation and the higher
modern civilization. The Middle Ages
have passed, and can never be resus-
citated, but what was pure and true and
good in any age is immortal and "a
thing of beauty is JOY forever"
The Dies Ire takes its name from its
first two words, DAY of Wrath which
are borrowed from the Bible; namely.
the description of the terrible day of
Judgment in Zephaniah lis, 16, accord
ing to the Latin Version of st. Jerome,
which was in universal use in Western
Christendom during the Middle Ages, as
1t is still in the Roman Catholic church.
Those words strike the keynote, and
should not be changed in translation.
The poem is usually traced to Thomas
of Celano, in Italy, friend and biog-
rapher of st. Francis, of Assist, and
superior of the Fran ciscan converts OF
Cologne, Mayence, Worms and Spires.

CATARRH,
Catarrhal Deafness-Hay Fever-A New
Home Treatment.

Sufferers are not generally aware that
these diseases are contagious, or that they
are due to the presence of living parasites
in the lining membrane of the nose and
eusGachian tubes. Microscopic research,
however, has proved this to be a fact, and
the result of this discovery is that simple
remedy has been formulated whereby
Catarrh, Hay Fever and Catarrhal Deafness
are permanently cured in from ore to three
simple applications made at home by the
patient once in two weeks.
