A singular Man,

One of the most remarkable human
curiosities ever seen has just been ex-
amined by II. de Quatrefages, the
French naturalist. He is a Provincial,
named Simeon Aiguier, and is 80 years
old. Aiguier, thanks to his peculiar
system of muscles and nerves, can trans
form himself in most wondrous fashion.
He has very properly dubbed himself
"L'Homme-Protee." At one moment,
assuming the rigidity of a statue, his
body may be struck sharply, the blows
falling as on a block of stone. At an
other he moves his intestines from above
and below and rightto left into the form
of a large football, and projects it for
ward, which gives him the appearance
of a colossally stout parsonage.
He then withdraws it into the thorax,
opening like a cave, and the hollow look
of his body Immediately reminds one of
Il skeleton. Aiguier successfully imi-
tates a mar subjected to the tortures of
the rack, as also a man hanging himself.
and assumes a striking cadaverous look.
What most astonished NJ. de Quatre-
FACES was the stoppage of the c~ircula-
ton of the blood, 10Y on the left and
now on the right side, which was effect
ed by muscular OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

The Only eMaynower" lie Knew OF.


l heard a curious imposition which
was praetised by q Bostonian Of yacht
ing proclivities upon a friend from New
York, whose knowledge of yachts, and
indeed seagoing vessels generally, was
limited to the barest acquaintance with
their general characteristics. The two
friends were on the steamer Puritan, of the
Fall River line, and as they were admir-
ing the delicate decorations in white and
gold that are such an improvement on
the old time methods of cabin ornament
alton for such craft, the Bostonian call
ed the others attention to the painted
vessel that stands out against a glowing
sunset above the stairway in the main
saloon, and has upon the caHyas the
word ..Mayfower."
Asevery visitor with nautical Or historic
knowledge is aware, this vessel is the
Mayfiower of our Pilgrim ancestors.
But the fun loving B~ostonian called his
friends attention to it as a representa-
ton of the famous yacht that carried off
the honors for the old Puritan town, and
was naturally amused when his sugges-
ton was taken in earnest, qualified only
by the remark, II don't see how such a
lubberly looking craft could have won a
race. boston Post.

The Sulphur Cure.

The sulphur cure for diphtheria has
been extensively published by the press,
and has some medical Endorsement. Sui
phur may be good for ~diphtheria, but it
certainly would not be safe to inhale the
fumes of burning sulphur. A deadly
agent-sulphurous acid gas-is thus gen
Grated. the inhalation of which would al
most inevitably prove fatal.-Exchange.
Ozone is now produced by a new cleo
trical process, the details of which are
not given. 1t is stated that it is ex-
tracted from the atmosphere instead of
direct from oxygen, as formerly. The
hygienic and commercial value of the
new invention, should it prove success
full, cannot easily be estimated.

SUSIE.

"A little girl has died, a" they say
Only sixteen,
Weep if ye may-bend low as We pray:
What does it mean:'
But we cannot weep, though the child Do
dead,
And hearts beat sore;
Life droops unwed, by yon stirless bed,
BY the Swallowed door.
Listen God fashioned a house-He said:
Build It with care"
Then softly laid the soul of a maid
To dwell in there.
And always lie watched it-guarded it so,
Both day and night;
The wee soul grew as yopr lilies do,
Splendid and white.
1t grew, 1 say, rs your lilies grow,
Tender and tall;
Til Cod smiled Now, the house is too low
For the child and small
And gently he shut the shutters one night.
And closed the door;
More room and more light to walk upright
On a fathers floor"
More room and more light for the maid you
know
Only sixteen;
Aud on Cots high row, where angels go,
She smiles between.

Exercise in Heart Disease.
The fact is well known hat Oertel,
the distinguished German writer, has
warmly advocated for certain forms
of functional heart trouble not rest,
but active exercise, such as mountain
climbing. In pursuing this practice, how
ever. the utmost care is found necessary,
and the distance to be covered is Of
course regulated for each patient; and
as its object is to strengthen the heart
muscle and promote the circulation, and
as only healthy arteries can stand the
strain, such treatment is Of course con-
tra-indicated in atheroma.
Formerly the detection by physical
diagnosis Of a heart murmur was re
garded as Il grave fact, an adverse CON
clusion being at once arrived at without
sufficiently considering the other signs
and symptoms, Such cases, it is found,
often do well with exercise and outdoor
life. Again, in fatty degeneration, the
heart in Il young person can stand a
moderate amount of exercise and I'M
doubtedly be strengthened, but it is in
fatty i~nfltration or fatty oyergrowth
that the judicious use Of exercise does
great good-the general diet in such
case to be regulated, and the general
obesity which usually exists to be re-
moved, by a depicting diet. Some Ger
man physicians in their city practice
recommend stair climbing when mount
ain climbing is not feasible.-New York

all Glasses of employees than is the late

From the president of the road to tho
water boys, from roadmaster to the hum

employees, bridge builders, yard men, freight
house employees, shop men and those em-
ployed on the tugs and floats, not one bat
feels and believes that he has lost friend in
Mr.. Turner's death.
It is certainly tribute which must be
comforting to the family to know that this
Is the case. New Haven Division of the
Conductors held meeting yesterday at
which little else was talked Of and the mem
orial service of the order was performed in
the division room out of respect to the mem
ory of Mr.. Turner.
1t was the request of the family Of the de-
ceased that the funeral be as quiet as possi-
Bile and in Difference to those wishes only q
tend the interment which will take place in
Worcester on Tuesday morning.
In conversation with one of the conductors
yesterday 1t was remarked that under Supt.
Turner the most pleasant relations have
existed between him and the employees and
Mr.. Turner'S loyalty to the company, where
the most important feature of successful
management has been something phenome~
nal, and 1t was his opinion that both the
company and employees had met with an
irreparable loss.
The attaches of the Consolidated road at
Bridgeport and other places will send elabo.

he will not accept the position of assistant
