Who Jacques, who?" whispered Laurier
eagerly, as he bent down TO the sick mans pill

Juliette soon joined Nine. &c Nignes at
Jacques bedside, but the sick man took no note

Her face was whittier Than jacques.
"Good heavens! what was thaf?" asked the
young girl, fixing her eyes with Wild stare upon
Nine. de Vignes.
The next instant Pierre's voice was heard In

selling one OF his hands. dropped down In

cigars, and women used the day OF the month

ured tones, as be was taking leave Of jacques
several days after Pierre Laurier's suicide, "the
mystery Of life is as deep to-day as 1t was six
thousand years ago. In plain words, we know
nothing about II. Don't smile incredulously

A Novel Theory Which Is Being Put
Into Practice in This City.
x 1;;F1ELL, wonders will never cease"
SsEsJE9 said a lady to a CALL reporter.
SNWsN"I have heard some of the
funniest things to-day in connection with
doctoring. just listen: A young lady
know, who has been suffering from ner-
vous prostration or whatever else you may
choose to call it when one becomes weak,
languid and out of health, went TO physi-
clan. He at once began TO examine her
head. and. before he mad asked her single
question. he informed her that her brain
was not properly nourished, and that she
slept upon her back! Imagine the two
brought into any relation with each other!
And yet the idea as he developed was not
so far fetched alter all. Let me see If can
remember his line of argument. He said
that we do not give enough thought to
what we eat. He insists that we should
think as we sit down TO meal, Now this
food is what | like, what | need, and what
is going to do me good He says that the
roof Of the mouth is furnished with nerves
that when thought is thus taken Of the
food 60 directly with nourishment to the
brain. lie says that this Will nourish the
body and also the soul.
"Now of course L don't pretend to say
how much truth there may be in this idea.
L
sit down to a meal with the conviction that
whatever they ate was bound to disagree
with them, and disagree with them it did,
and l may say that 1t did the same with
every one who had the misfortune to be at
the table | once said: We'll, suppose
that / ought to apologize for enjoying what
you have declared to be not hit to eat, but
really l find 1t very pleasant Now when
people make up their minds to be disturbed
by their food they generally get what they
expected, and so. what should prevent the
converse from being truep
Then. as for the lying on the back, the
doctor said that it was necessary to sleep
upon the stomach. Infants, If they can
possibly wriggle themselves into that posi-
ton, always sleep so, and animals always.
The organs in the front of the body are
elastic. and so do not suffer from pressure;
but when the body Is extended on the back
these organs are dead weight upon the
nervous system, and in time will break it
down. Isn't that curious idea?"

Why Envelopes Are Only Redeemed.
nanialn haua Ida ha4 a..

Some people have an idea that the Gov
eminent redeems postage stamps when from
any cause they become unfit for use or are
difficult to use. Frequently sheets OF stamps
are stuck together or are torn or injured,
The loss, if any. falls upon the owner as
the Government refuses to assume any re-
sponsibility OF stamps when once sold. The
agents of the Government, the P0stmasters,
can redeem stamps which they have for
sale, if through any accident they become
unfit for use. But when the citizen buys
stamp he either uses it in the legitimate
way or else he is out the value of the stamp.
The Government however, redeems
stamped envelopes. If one should happen
to be misdirected or should become blotted.
or for any reason person should wish to
tear open stamped envelope after he had
sealed il for mailing, he can bring ii to the
POstoffice and get a brand new envelope in
its place. The reason for this difference in
the treatment of the adhesive stamp and
the stamped envelope is that the adhesive
stamp can be used and then washed and
passed as good. unless careful scrutiny is
made. If the Government should begin the
practice of redeeming adhesive stamps the
opportunities for fraud would be increased.
Then the adhesive stamps are manu-
featured at a cost to the Government, which
the stamped envelope is not. The stamps
are furnished to the public at the face value,
and out of this has to come the cost of man
ufacture, but in the case of stamped en-
velopes they are sold at their face value,
plus the cost Of manufact ure.-Washing
