A laugh was raised in the United

his testimony with an air of childlike in
nocence. The following dialogue took
place on cross examination: "Did Rich

General villas, Rabbits Foot.

A resident of Bay st. Louis, Miss,
teM pretty story about ex-Postmaster
General Villas, rabbits foot and the
little mistress of the postoffice at the
lake shore resort. 1t will be remembered
that when Mr.. Villas took charge of the
postoffice system of the United States
the heads of offensive partisans dropped
very rapidly. but in south Mississippi
along the lake shore there were no voters
in office, for the postmasters were all
women: Nevertheless the decree went
forth that they must give way to adher-
ents of the party.
Among the Office holders was a little
woman who did not believe in being in
hurry. So she asked the postmaster
general for an extension of time, which
was CALAMITY granted. In looking around
among her few treasures her eyes fell
upon one she considered above price. 1t
was small and delicate left hand foot
of rabbit mounted in silver, with
name and date engraved upon it. This
she concluded to send to the postmaster
general as token of gratitude. In her
letter of presentation she said, among
other good wishes, that she trusted the
rabbits foot might some day be the
means of landing him in the United
States senate
Her wish, aided by the eficacious
properties of the rabbits foot, has been
successful, and Mr.. Villas has been ele-
waited to the senate. He himself acknowl-
edges the means by which that good for
tune was achieved, and in letter to the
little postmistress he said:
81 still possess the good luck charm,
and you are at liberty to claim any ad-
vantages that might be due to it, and /
shall take it as compliment. Cor.

PToMAlNE POISONING.

Gases of Considerable Rarity in the His
tory of the Healing Art.
The husband and two children of the
poisoned family in Highlands are better
1t is a case of ptomaine poisoning, and
the fact that that kind of poisoning is
exceedingly rare makes it most interest
ing 1t comes from putrid meats and
vegetables, and also exists in cheese. It
is q poisonous salt developed in the proc
ess of putrefaction, and case of this
kind of poisoning is rarely seen so marked
as this case, because it is seldom that
people eat meats that are pronouncedly
tainted.
In this case the meat was in the most
very sick. An evidence which shows
that this was case of ptomaine poison
ing resulting from the meat is that the
family upstairs ate some of the same
meat, which was cooked, and were very
sick for two days, but recovered. Symp-
toms of this kind of poisoning, accord
ing to DIR. Lutze's statement, are violent
vomiting and purging and Rinched ex-
preston of the face This is often mis-
taken by the best physicians for other
troubles, and such mistake is not sur
prising when the best chemists do not
thoroughly understand the nature of
these cases and the poison.
1t is blood poison by absorption, and
its effect is first upon the blood, pro-
ducing tissues Of the capillary circula.
ton. In reality death commences at the
surface and continues inwardly until the
heart is reached. Its secondary effect is
on the vasomotor nerves which regulate
the circulation. DR.. Lutte called DR..
Sewers in consultation on the case, and
both are satisfied that this is a clear case
of ptomaine poisoning.
Regarding the rarity Of such cases DR..
Lutte says he has in his practice never
seen but one, and that was the case of
man in New Jersey. In that instance
the cause was putrid fish. A whole fam
lily was stricken down and five died. DR..
Sewers says he never saw case with
fatal results before. In giving the Pc
culiar effects of the poison he cited
medical work which is compiled from
the best authorities over the world:
"No characteristic post-morte4n ap-
pearances are recognizable. The body
is emaciated and the skin bleached and
parchment-like. Rigor mortis begins
early and continues longer than usual,
and putrefaction is delayed in some cases,
but very rapid in others. The mucous
membrane of the mouth and pharynx is
often white, dry and parchment-like or
horny. The mucous membrane is fire.
quently congested and sometimes cachy-
matte. The spleen is sometimes en-
larged, congested and extremely soft and
friable. The blood, as rule, is dark
and contains no foreign organisms OF
elements. The corpuscles are unaltered.
The lungs are frequently congested and
9dematous."
"Often," says DR.. Lutte, "the symp-
toms are the same as in the case of ar
senic poisoning, but this is not always
so."-Denver News.

Ewes of Different People,

Eyes have always been regarded as a
sure tribal characteristic. Tacitus, for
example, describes the Germans as
fierce, with blue eyes and red hair"
The Celts are mentioned as being swarthy
skinned and black eyed; the Gauls are
red haired and light eyed, while the Nu-
bians, the Turks, the Egyptians and the
Italians have always been spoken of as
''the dark eyed races" These peculiari-
ties have not changed. Even today the
people of the temperate zones have gen.
orally light colored eyes, while those Of
the torrid and the frigid zones are usu-
ally dark, or even black. Of the races
in particular, the only one that can be
said to be eight eyed" is the Caucasian,
and even in this race the eyes are by no
means uniform in point of color.
The whole period Of human history
goes to prove that the light haired, blue
eyes races are capable of the highest de-
gree of civilization, but it does not by any
means follow that the highest degree of
civilization is confined to people of blonde
complexion. There was time when
blue eyed person was rarely seen, and
today seven-e1ghths of the worlds in
habitants have dark eyes. Lavater,
when discussing the eye as feature in
national physiognomy, gave the follow
ing as the results of his observations:
1.-THE Italians have small eyes; the Ger
mans, light colored eyes surrounded by
many wrinkles; the English, strong,
open, steadfast eyes; and the Swiss, eyes
that are very dull looking."-St. Louis
Republic.
