Using the Sun as an Alarm Clock.

The young man who lives in garret
related his peculiar methods of domestic
economy lately. He does not possess an
alarm clock, and consequently must de
wise some means of awakening at GER
tain time in the morning. To arouse
himself at six o'clock he opens his win
dow and lifts high the curtain before re-
tiring, and lol the light of dawn steals
gently upon his eye-lids and prizes them
open to sensibility with ~ aaistence
rendered by the ruder shock Sssvsyed to
his ear by the noise of passing vehicles.
To awake two hours later the window Is
closed; ten o'clock awakening is OBJ
tanned by pulling down the curtain, but
when his fatigue necessitates thorough
rest he shuts out all light and sound as
nearly as possible, surrounding himself
with pillows and blankets, among which
he rests serenely in the arms of Nor
pheus until "high noon" drives him from

How Elephants Spray.

The elephant in captivity is very diff
ferent in his native jungles, and Sir
Samuel Baker thinks the life of the wild
animal is much longer because of the
complete change of habits undergone by
the beast when tanned and set to work.
The elephant IS nocturnal animal,
but in captivity is forced to work during
the daytime, and SO, in India, suffers
greatly, the immense size and weight and
dark color causing the animal to become
overheated. To relieve itself it draws
from its stomuch quantity of water and
sends it in a shower of spray over the
body, and as this operation is repeated
about every five minutes, the rider of an
elephant is subjected to some incon-
venience.
1t is, however, curious fact that the
water thus drawn from this reservoir
provided by nature is perfectly sweet
and pure, and Baker says no animal is
cleaner or more choice in its selection of
food. But the elephant is wasteful
feeder, and if allowed will destroy twice
as much as he eats. The native elephant
keepers understand this, and when feed
ing their charges make up the rice and
plantain into small packages, one of
which at time is handed to the ever
expectant trunk.-Nem York Journal.

"If you want to loose or make for
tune in day." said Mr.. H. G. Lodge, a
well-known Colorado patent lawyer, now
in the city, ''just go into the business of
the inventor. 1t is better than lottery,
for you stand chance of winning once
in a while. The man who invented the
hooks now in use on the tops of shoes
was Missouri shoemaker. He got S3EA
for this patent, but the man who bought
it made SIS, 900 out of it. The inventor
and patentee of that toy for children,
the reoounding ball now almost forgotten
by the tickle youngsters, cleared S125, 600
out of his patent, while the "chestnut
bell' profited the firm that patented tho
idea $3.50, 900. ''Pigs in clover would
have brought the inventor, a central
New York farmer, as much more, but a
number of firms manufacturing chill
dren's toys ran the risk for infringement
of patents during that craze, and the in
ventor only received SIS, 900 and lot
of lawsuits. | haven't said anything
about the men who have lost fortunes in
the business, but their name is legion. -

The Medical aud Surgical Reporter, Phil.

correspondent: "The disgracsiul scenes at
the banquet given by the city of Berlin to
tho Medical Congress were recently the topic
of discussion in council. A councilman called
it the medical schuetzenfcst, and emphasized
the waste of money. He was not altogether
wrong. The money spent by the city for the
Rathaus banquet was really enormous, and
the result was the total intoxication of most
of the shining lights of the profession. Ire
gret to say that the bigger tue man, the
more he was inebriated. On q professor
whose name is household word ali over the
medical world artificial respiration was prac
ticed for almost an hour, and another pro-
fessor who has srevolutionized one of the most
important OF medical branches had bal
cut in his heal. the result of fall. A French
physician who has made his name renowned
by lighting intemperanco through exposure
of the injury inflicted upon the organism by
alcohol was unable to spell his own name. By
queer coincidence l also saw two men hug
ging each other who are known as irreconcil-
able antagonists in science. one a leader of
German bacteriolosists, and the other well
known Paris professor who does not believe

House, Lewiston, and the Tontine

DON'T LET INDIANS HAVE LIQUOR.

There Essays the Indian's Friend, "a paper
published by tho Women's National Indian
Association--a law passed by Congress that
no Intoxicating liquor of any kind shall be
sold to an Indian, anywhere within the limits
Of the United States land it was not passed
for the benefit of the Indian either). This
law is openly, repeatedly and unblushingly
violated; from its violation there comes
long line of evils of which the white race gets
its full share Now we venture to suggest
that as precautionary measure it might be
well to send all sellers of Intoxicating liquors
put of the lands assigned to Indians. The
Indian Bureau in the Northwest is prac-
tically in charge of the War Department
since the recent order of the honorable
Secretary of the Interior; and it would be a
comparatively easy matter to carry this law
into effect. A thorough enforcement of the
law would be worth more than regimentof
of cavalry.

What Lupus Is.

Lupus vulgaris, of which we are now
hearing so much, is an extremely chronic
disease of the skin, attacking persons
between the ages of two and fifteen. 1t
is characterized by the appearance of
reddish brown nodules of granulation
tissue upon the skin, usually of the face.
The mucous membranes are rarely affect
ed The nodules start in the corlum,
but penetrate the connective tissue be-
meath and the papillary layer above.
The disease spreads by the formation of
fresh nodules at the periphery of the
original lesion. New centres form and
the old ones may gradually disappear. If
the tissue breaks down an open sore is
found, covered with yellowish and
brownish crusts. Unlike ordinary tuber-
Gle, the lupus nodules are rather vascu-
lar, Tubercle bacilli are found in the
tissue, but they are very infrcquent, and
often many examinations are required to
detect them. incubation of lupus
nodules will it is asserted, cause tubeI-
culosis in rabbits and guinea pigs; but
inoculation of the skin with tubercle will
not produce lupus. For this and other
reasons So distinguished an authority as
Kaposi denies that .upus is a cutaneous
tuberculosis, although that view is held
positively by Koch and his pupils.
Lupus, chrome as it is in its tendencies,
often disappears for a time under treat
ment, only to reappear later. Dermatolo-
gists generally give favorable prognosis,
provided treatment is persisted in

Lulu Hanlon, deicate-looking little girl,
who is bcrely twelve years old, was

the neighbors that both the girl and her
father had been drunk on Christmas Day.
Recently Officer King visited the apart
