Facts About Heart Disease.

Formerly, when the physician, with his
stethoscope, detected a certain abnormal
sound called cardiac murmur, indicating
heart trouble, he said nothing about it to
the patient or if he did reveal his discov-
cry he did so in such a way as to take
away natures most powerful restorative
hope But change in the methods of
physicians has been taking place in recent
years. Says The Medical Record:
THE opinion is now rooted in the minds
of the advanced guard of the profession
that cardiac murmurs are often devoid of
the grave significance formerly attributed
to them. &c. too. we have come to learn
that considerable damage to the valves
may be so thoroughly compensated by
hypertrophy (enlargement) that it seems
permissible to speak of recovery from
organic disease of the heart.
True, the anatomical lesion persists.
But the individual thus affected may live
for years, without impairment of his
health and with working capacity in nc
way reduced from his normal standard.
The time has come when the prognosis OF
despair must make way for the modern
doctrine of hope in the possibility of 6
cure. What was formerly equivalent tc
a sentence of death may be committed t.
carefulness for life"
Rheumatic fever or some other disease
may have caused Inflammation of the lin
ing membrane of the heart, and thus laiC
foundation for permanent obstruction
to the flow of the blood through one O.
more of the valves. But nature in tim'
/ overcomes this obstruction, not by re
moving it, but by charging the heart ant
increasing its force.
True, there may be at length weaken
ing of the walls of the heart, and conse
quent lessening of it's ability to do it
work, and there may come on palpitation
difficult breathing. cough and signs o
dropsy; but this failure may be due t.
preventable causes. Youths Companion

The Climax of Good Form

If your real swells want to be really
English they must carry their respective
left hands buried to the wrist in their
respective left trousers pockets. All the
dudes in town have taken to doing it, and
every chappie on Fifth avenue after the
Wednesday matinees was actually lop
sided with the exertion of reaching the
very bottom seam of his left trousers

thereby proclaim yourself one of Wales

gloves with the fingers pointing aft in

Uses of the Prison Messenger.

The prison messenger is a peculiar
character He is attached to every police
court in the city by what right no one
except himself knows. Although not
vested with any authority from local,
state or national powers, he has access at
all times to the prisons attached to the
police courts and in the latter he appears
to be of more Importance than the regu-
lar officers paid by the taxpayers. He is
trustworthy and seems to have unbounded
faith in human nature, He conducts
business in this fashion: A respectable
young man happens to have been out late
and is arrested. In the morning he wakes
penniless and with no means of communi-
eating with his friends. The prison mes
senger understands the case in n moment,
He offers his services, knowing that his
client will be only too anxious to make
good any expenses. He will run errands,
employ counsel, if necessary, and even
pay prisoners fine without security fol-
his outlay. The messenger seldom makes
a mistake He has been known to ad
vance as much as 800 to prisoner who
was confined in the Tombs for a week
without other security than the man

prisoner rewarded him with check fol

The name OF Theebaw, formerly king OF
Burmah, has almost passed into oblivion
so far as the general public is concerned.
1t has been revived in England, however
owing to an inquiry as to what has be.
come Of the treasure once possessed by
Theebaw When Mandalav was captured
by Sir Henry Prendergast, in 1885, Thee
baws palace contained booty valued al
twenty lakhs. Theebaw was permitted
to take away with him few valuable
articles, but the larger part of his fortune
was seized by the English. And now
after an interval of three years, certain
inquisitive Lonioners are wondering what
became Of the rich spols which fell t.
the comprehensive York World.
