Hospital EXPENSES.

The average person, if asked what is
the most expensive item of hospital cx-
pcnditurc, would probably reply, "Mcd-
icine." Most people think that in the
language of little Tommy Upper, hos
pital is IA VERY large place where dcy
mas heaps an heaps o medicine" But
this is not correct, for the RI :cnt report
OF the Massachusetts general hospital,
which may stand as type of every large
hospital, shows that medicine" is
one Of the smaller items, being even
less than surgical Instruments" while
the "fucl" costs three times as much ms the
medicine. The average cost of II patient
is about S14 per week That, it is csti-
mated, is about the cost of ''frcc bcd''
for each week OF occupation. This cost,
of course, includes everything, and as II
rule, there is no difference between a free
bed and any other. With the exception
of one ward, where all patients pay fixed
sum of so much per week, no one but the
medical director knows who occupies a
paid bed and who free one The nurses
and attendants are purposcly kept in ig-
norancc of these facts, because the physi-
clans believe such n policy is wise. -Ne,o

A Leopard Tanned by a Perfume.

Wild animals are completely fascinated
and can be tanned by perfumes. There
was a Mrs. Lee, in India, who had
tame leopard that played in the house
with her children. He was very inluisi-
tive, as all of the cat tribe are, and loved
to stand on his hind legs and with his
fore paws on the window sill look at the
passers-by.
When the children wanted the place
for themselves they would all take hold
of his tail and pull him down by that.
He was generally very amiable, but some
times, his claws being very sharp, the
children were scratched. SO Mrs. Lee
taught Sal to keep his claws shcathed by
giving him when he did so little paper
tray on which lavender water had been
dropped.
This would throw him into transports
of delight. He would tear the paper into
bits and roll over them on the floor. With
nothing but bottle of lavender water |

The term "batt!c-ship" was formerly
applied to ships carrying guns on at least
three decks. 1t is now used only for
ironclads of sufficient size to fight similar
vessels in line of battle and sufficient
ircc-bonrd to enable them to remain ut
sea. The term ''cruiscr," when used by
itself, means Il swift vessel, not ironclad,
OF sufficient coal capacity to keep the sea
and make long trips. The term ''armored
cruiser" means similar vessel except
that she is steel or iron clad The term
"proicctcd cruiser means "A cruiser with
a steel defective horizontal nearby deck,
generally below the water line at the

who We're the Mound Builders {,

Professor Frederick Starr lecturcd on
the mound builders recently at the
American Museum OF National History.
III New York city. His view of the
mound builders was not the romantic one
Of "a great and mysterious nation which Il
good many people have cherished. In
Tact, there was not much romance in his
tale Of what had resulted from scientists
researches.
Professor Starr told Of the characters
ties OF the mounds found in the different
States. He did not regard them us the
work of Il great and united people, but
rithcr that Of scattered tribes. He said
the mound builders appeared to have ere
mated the bodies oi the dead of their mp-
per classes, while the dead OF the plebc-
ians were probably allowed To remain OK
posed to the mir until the flesh had fallen
away. Then the bones were placed in
rcccptnclcs in the mounds. In many
eases evidences were found that the bod
les of children were buried in the floor of
the houses, apparently with the idea Of
Keeping the little ones as near to their
mothers ms possible. He spoke of two
affairs which had been taken from
mounds, one Of which contained 60, 900
pearls. Many Of the mounds were de-
signed TO represent various ANIMALS and
birds, and perhaps figured rs boundaries
to territories occupied by certain clans
answering to the names of the living
creatures.
The lcctutcr pointed out the fact that
when tine white men first visited the
South they found Indian tribes engaged
in mound building, and that old pictures
made by early visitors to Northern tribes
represented pretty accurately scenes
which could be easily reproduced from
the testimony Of the mounds and he said
that the Indians might have built all tho
mounds i'll the country except those in
/ Ohio, which are still an unsolvcd puzzle
In many ways the customs of the mound
builders must have agreed very closely
with those of the Indian tribes which
malc for themselves fairly permanent
settlements.
