OWNERSHIP OF PRESCRIP-
TTONS.

A question of law has just been
settled in England. That is the
Iol,aI ouvIohip Of i physicians
prescription. In the English case
the doctor claimed that he was
himself the owner Of his prescrip-
ton. and that he could require his
patient to return it to him after it
had been filled. He held that the
combination Of drugs which he
prescribed was his property, his in
vention, and that the written pre-
scription was a mere memorandum
to be temporarily used by the pa
tent in order to prevent any mis-
takes caused by a defective mem
orv. The Court ruled that his
position was not sound, and that
the prescription, being the outward
and visible sign Of the treatment
for which the patient paid, was his
property.
In this country we have never
heard of a case where q doctor
wanted a prescription back. But
it constantly happens that drug
glst who fills prescription, pastes
the paper in q book and refuses to
return it to his customer. That is
going 10 far. The druggist ac-
quires no property in the prescrip-
ton by mixing the drugs it pre-
scribes. His rights are at an end
when he has been paid for his
drugs. The prescription remains
the property Of the party who ten
ders it to the druggist, and can no
more be retained by the latter than
any other property belonging to
the customer. Where the druggist,
under the State law, which requires
him to keep a record Of his bust
ness, chooses to file away the
prescription he fills he should at
all events supply his customer with
an authentic copy verified by his
own signature.
1t often happens that sick per-
son coming from a neighboring
State is relieved by prescription
obtained from a city doctor. The
invalid naturally desires to take
that prescription away for further
use in c&se of a return of the
malady. He should be enabled to
do so, either by retaining the pre-
scription itself or by being furnish
ed with an exact copy of it by the
druggist.-Ex.

THOUGHTFUL EMPLOYERS.

1t is an employers duty to be
as thoughtful of his clerk, as it is
the duty of the latter to be thought
full of his employers interest. A
good clerk will appreciate the effort
of good employer to treat him
properly and recognize that a clerk
is human beng. There is occa-
sionally an employer who seems to
forget this. He is unreasonable in
his demands, harsh and exacting.
He demands very long hours on
very small pay. He forgets that
it is not an employers privilege to
demand everything of clerk, sim
ply because the latter is in his en-
ploy.
1t is a good plan to occasionally
say good word for your clerk
and 20 him. Let him know you
appreciate his work if it is satisfac-
tory. If it is the clerks duty to
stay in the store evenings, surprise
him occasionally by saying, " Well,
Charles, Ill stay tonight, and you
can take little rest, if you wish !;
you don't get out much" The
clerk will repay you, never fear.
If he has been tempted to shirk or
take advantage of you, the proba-
bility is that he will exert himself
to please you. 1t pays to be con-
siderate of your employee.
A retailer should advise his
clerks. If possible, instruct them
IN business methods, and when OPP
portunlty offers where they can
benefit themselves, give them a
pleasant good by and what assist
ance you can, no matter how much
you may regret their departure.
A merchant in consistency must
be as watchful OF his clerks inter-
ests as his clerk is of his employ
er's.-Minneapolis Commercial Bull

BEHRING SEA CONVENTION AND
PROCLAMATION.

President Harrison has issued q
PROCLAMATION in regard to closed
season for seal fishing. He cites,
first, the fact Of an agreement hav-
ING been arrived at with the British
Government on the following
points. which has been signed by
the representatives of the two Gov
ernments:
=" ~ Her Majesty's Government will
prohibit, until May next, seal killing in
that part OF Behring Sea lying eastward
OF the line OF demarcation described in
Article No. OF the treaty of 1867 be-
tween the United States and Russia, and
will promptly use its best efforts TO in
sure the observance of this prohibition
by British subjects and vessels,
" (2) The United States Government
will prohibit seal killing for the same
period in the same part OF Behring Sea
and on the shores and islands thereof
the property OF the United States lin ex-
cess of $500 to be taken ON the islands
for the subsistence and care OF the ma
tives), and will promptly use its best
efforts to insure the observance OF this
prohibition by United States citizens and
vessels.
"(3) Every vessel or person offending
against this prohibition in the said
waters of Behring Sea outside OF the
ordinary territorial limits Of the United
States, may be seized and detained by
the naval or other duly commissioned
officers OF either of the high contracting
parties; but they shall be handed over
as soon as practicable to the authorities
of the nation to which they respectively
belong, who shall alone have jurisdc-
ton to try the ofense and impose the
penalties for the same. The witnesses
and proof necessary to establish the
offense shall also be sent with them.
4" "a In order to facilitate such proper
inquiries Her Majesty's Government
may desire to make, with a view to the
presentation of the case of that Govern
ment before arbitrators, and in expecta-
ton that an agreement for arbitration
may be arrived at, it is agreed that suit
able persons designated by Great Brit
ain will be permitted at any time, upon
application, to visit or to remain upon
the seal islands during the preset seal
ing season for that purpose"
Then follows the proclamation.
CHOW, therefore, be it known that l,
Benjamin Harrison, President of the
United States of America, have caused
the said agreement to be made public to
the end that the same and every part
thereof may be observed and fulfilled
with good faith by the United States of
America and the citizens thereof.
Gin witness whereof, have hereunto
set my hand and caused the seal of the
United States to be affixed"

Sergius Stepniak is a splendid converse

When Herbert Spencer was here several
years ago he talked a little to some of our
best men at a friendly symposium upon this
subject, writes Juliet Corson in Harper's
Bazaar. His kindly spirit took the sting
from his implied c~ensure; he said that
Americans seem to miss life's highest good
by their eagerness for business success.

EIGHT ACES IN THE DECK.

A Remarkable Poker Game In winch
BOss Tweed Took Part.
There recently died in Chicago an old
negro named Joe Evans. At the time of his
death he was head bellman at the Leland
hotel in that city. Years ago, when Tweed
was in his glory, Joe was employed IN the
Delavan in this city, says the Albany EN-
press. There used to be some heavy poker
playing in that hotel during those lively
times, and Tweed's room was generally the
headquarters of the game. Joe was a great
favorite with Tweed, as indeed he was with
most of the "high rollers at the capital.
Tweed had Joe made the special guardian
OF his room, and no one could ever get in
there il Joe said no.
The old darkey happened to step into the
apartment one evening when a more than
ordinary big game was in progress. IN
front of a man nameu Shepard was u stack
of chips representing $1,000. Joe was an
inveterate poker player himself IN those
DAYS, he and the other oolored boys having
a game going on most of the time IN their
oua,ters, and when he saw that great heap
Of money his eyes fairly bulRed out OF his
head.
sFoh de Lawd, but l wish I was in dat ar
game'' said Joe, with q gasp. a Thought
came to MI. Shepard. He sent Joe down
stairs on some Grand, and during his alb.
sence a "cold deck'' was run i'll and liked
for the darky's special benefit. When Joe
came back Mr.. Shepard asked him to play
a hand or two for him while he went out.
Joe, with his heart beating. high. took the
seat and began to play. When two or three
hands had been passed, Joe was startled at
getting four aces. He trembled all over;
but lust then Mr.. Shepard returned and,
looking over his shoulder, said: for
them. Joe; 20 for them Joe did go Tor
them. Everybody but Tweed dropped out
of the game, He kept on raising, while
Joe. encouraged by Mr.. Shepard, raised him
eyery time until the darky had piled the
5000 in the centre of the table.
Then Tweed called him, and Joe, his eyes
fairly cleaning with wild excitement, threw
down his four aces, while he reached Tor
the money, saying, "What you got dab,
Massa Tweed?" .
them down.
"Fo' aces.'' cried Joe. "Fo' aces! Fore
de Lawd, Massa Tweed, how can you hab
fo' aces?"
The gamblers had had their fun and had
seen Joe excited. They were ready to go
on with their own game, so Shepard showed
a 500 bill into Joe's hands and thrust him
out into the hall, saying: Get out OF
here, you black scamp; you talk ABOUT
playing poker, and you don't know there
are eight aces in a poker deck: get out

y, TO THE II POLE.

The Proposed Balloon Voyage Pronounced
Utterly Impracticable.
The two daring %aeronauts who propose to
make a journey to the north pole, as de-
scribed and illustrated in the Scientific
American of Dec. 2O,s1S90, are meeting with
many Acknowledgements. The French So
ciety of Aerial Navigation has pronounced
unanimously against it. At a recent meet
ing of the society in Paris. the president,
Mr.. Mage, editor of Cosmos. made an adj
dress which was quite disheartenlng to the
projectors of the enterprise. He ad-
vised them to make better use of
their energy and devotion to science
than to attempt to reach the north pole by
balloon. Mr.. Mage said it was impossible
to believe the gentlemen would succeed.
All our information about the prevailing
winds in the polar regions indicates that
each extremity of the earth's axis is a
region of circular wind currents. Ihere Is
little prospect that the wind would carry
balloon travellers to their destination.
Then, even in summer, a very low tenn
perature prevails, heavy falls of snow are
frequent, and it is difficult to believe a bal
loon could remain in mid-air while
heavily weighted with snow. Frost upon
the ropes and other parts of the rigging
would make the management of the balloon
extremely difficult, if not impossible. The
land or water surface woul for days at a
time be obscured by heavy mists. The
compass would be useless, and the voyagers
would have to try to direct their movements
by the stars, an art in which balloon travel
ers are not proficient. Mr.. Mage's remarks
were endorsed by the entire soc1ety.
Mr.. Hermite. who, with M Besacon,
projected this daring voyage. d d i'll reply
that he and his comrade in nded next
summer to go to Spitzbergen and launch
pilot balloons for the purpossI # learning
all they could at that point OF b direction
of the prevailing winds: If results OF
these experiments is favorab !, they will
will return to France and pre- are to make
their polar voyage in 1892. If the results
are unfavorable, they will renounce the ex-
petition. He did not believe that the diff
culties III the way of balloo travelling were
SO great as the president believed
Another speaker said that during the
summer, at mean altitude notlexceeding
3 $500 feet and the mean temporal hre during
his journey WAS not less than 70 degrees
below the freezing point, and yeHhis jour
ney was across the southern part of the
island. 1t was the sheerest folly to5suppose
a balloon. which has as much rigging as a
ship, could successfully be carried across
the north pole.
