The Prescription.

There was. some time ago, doctor
whose morning ievees were crowded be-
yond description. 1t was his pride and
boast that he could feel his patients
pulse, look at his tongue, probe at him
with his stethoscope, write his prescrip-
ton, pocket his fee, in a space of time
varying from two to five minutes. One
day an army man was shown into the
consulting room, and underwent what
may be called the instantaneous process.
When it was completed the patient shook
hands heartily with the doctor and said
"a am especially glad to meet you, as
have often heard my father, Col. Fores-
ter, speak of his old friend. DR., L.
WHAT" exclaimed the doctor, 'are you
Dick Forester's son?" "Most certainly
am" MY dear fellow, fling that in
fernal prescription into the fire and sit
down quietly and tell me what's the mat
ter with you. n-Marray's Magazine.

Be Prompt In Appointments.

The Manufacturers Gazette thinks
there is nothing more damaging to a
business than to be found wanting in the
matter of promptness in filling orders
A great many firms will promise to have
an order at a certain time, when they
are confident in their own minds that it
will be almost an utter impossibility to
do SO. This is done to secure the orders,
but cannot fail of damaging effect in
the future. 1t is just as important thai
an order be filed at the time agreed as
that any other engagement or appoint
ment be kept The man who arranges
for meeting with another at a certain
time is expected to be on time. In these
days of great enterprise and push, every
business man has his time fully taker
and promptness in keeping an appoint
ment is an important matter to him
Just so it is in filling orders. Prompt
ness is as much to the credit of a concern
as is the quality OF the work or the mate
rial used.

The Vanity OF Men.

"A man cares more about his shape
than a woman said corset maker,
'ands will resort to more stringent and
uncomfortable measures to improve his
figure. A stout woman viii walk mile
for two or three days and stop eating
candy for whole week to reduce her
flesh, hut man will submit to the most
wearisome processes for the same pur-
pose and keep up his effort for as many
months as his trainer recommends.
Place a glass at the left Of any public
stairway, and four men to one woman
will turn to look in it, and from these
premises may be drawn the double con-
clusion that men are more vain than wo-
men, and that were the stigma Of femi-
ninity removed from corset wearing and
the custom adopted by fashion leaders
men would fall in line very readily.
There is no more reason why they
shouldn't suffer in them than that wo-
men should be laced into them, simply
because they look more trim and shape
ly. In 1888 and 1910 corsets were worr
by men, and the fashion might be re-
yived if few leaders as courageous as
the apostles of dress suit reform would
introduce the practice. New York Sun

In travelling on the continent get Be
daeker's guide books. Look up the
hotels, and if intending to step at any
place for several days write ahead for
terms. Ask for price including light
and service, as they are always extra.
When the price does not include lights
take candles along. The charge for
lights is fifty cents a night for each per-
son, and dozen candles cost but twenty
cents. Soap is always an extra except
in England.
Those who ask for anything not on
the bill of fare win pay handsomely for
it. In all the Paris restaurants they
charge for the table cloth and napkins
to begin with.-Exchange.

The housewife of the middle ages
cooked over an open fire on a stone
hearth in the middle of the room. hole
in the roof letting the smoke escape.
Over this fire the people shivered in cold
weather; but at later time some of the
queens had braziers or small iron fur
naces in their rooms There were no
carpets in those days, and rushes and
sweet herbs were spread on the floor in
stead, especially when company was ex-
pected- There were tapestries on the
walls of the finer houses. At dinner
people sat on wooden benches and stools
at heavy table of boards set on trestles.
and this was covered with cloth The
bill of fare changed with the centuries
in those days, and not much from day to
day; the food was barley and oater
bread, bacon. fish, capons. eggs and an
abundance of home brewed ale, and the
mobiles sometimes had wine from the
east.-Good Housekeeping.

several persons have been drowned in

named Abrams is the last victim, and
his case was very peculiar one A
party was sounding the bottom of the
Withlacooche for phosphate, and when
an extraordinary bone or tooth was dis
covered Abrams would dive down and
bring it up At last he saw very large
bone and Owed for it, but remained at
the bottom. Waiting a few moments
and seeing his body at the bottom, Crap

rades and his body was brought 10 the
surface. As he came up huge horn or
tusk was seen sticking out of his head.
Upon examination it was found that in
diving he had struck head first huge

Napoleon.s Lost Canoes.

For many years the Bibliotheque Ma
tionale of Paris has bewailed the loss of
two dozen very fine ancient canoes Dor
rowed by Napoleon and never returned.
The emperor had them mounted in a
tiara, and when Louis XVIII came to
the throne they were found among the
crown jewels, and were sent along with
them to England for safety when Napo-
leon escaped from Elba. Since then they
have been hopelessly lost. The curator
had failed to preserve detailed descrip-
ton of the gems. NJ. German Bapst
however, has been able to provide the
substance of the missing document. and
has published it in his "Histoire des
Joyaux de la Couronne." Should the
canoes ever come into the market. they
may be recognized and bought back by
the authorities. 1t is generally supposed
that they are retained by the heirs of the
Comte de Chambord. Jewellers Weekly.

rime saved by Electric Lights.

In the Postoffice Central Savings
bank, in London, it has been found af-
ter two years experience of electric
lighting that the average amount of
illness has been diminished by about
two days per year for each person on
the staff This is equivalent to a gain
to the service of the time of about eight
clerks in that department alone. TAX
ing the cost at the overtime" rate
only, this would mean a saving in sal
aries of e640 year. The cost of the
installation of the electric light was
f3, $40, and the annual cost of working
f700 per anuum, say total annual
cost of 81, 034. The cost of gas con-
suned for lighting purposes was 970o
a year, so that on the whole there was
a direct saving of something like f266
year to the government, besides the
material advantage of the better work
of the staff, resulting from the i'm
proved atmospheric conditions under
which their work is done. New York

Graphic Account of Sharp, short Storm
In the Gulf of Gascony.
In the month of July, 1885, the schoon
er Swallow, recently overhauled and
made ready for scientific exploration
of the Gulf of Gascony, following the
line of coast which borders the great
depths, commenced the first attempts at
dredging the bottom at a depth of 500
meters.
On the second day our rope scaffold-
ings and dredge were let down under a
cloudy sky and into a muddy sea. The
barometer did not indicate anything alb
normal, still the aspect of sudden
cloud, forming rapidly in the west-soutn-
west in the course of the operation.
seemed sufficiently threatening to cause
us to postpone the drawing up of the
dredge until the passage of that inoppor-
tune danger.
1t was necessary to shorten sail with
the utmost rapidity in order to avoid too
great traction on the cable, the break
ing of which would have caused the loss
of our only deep sea dredge. The VIC
lence of such squall not permitting the
exposure of any ordinary sail we found
We would only be able to carry the jib

| A dust of water was raised by the first
puffs of the squan from the waves which
were almost instantly formed, and thi:

the briliance of meteor.
The crew, sheltered from the wind by
the lee bulwarks, awaited in silence al

After an hour of fierce rage the THO

and behind them hangs thin curtain @

Soon the squall hiding the opposit
horizon glides away from US by mys
FERROUS power and no trace is left on tn

The schooner anchors and hoists on
