series Of aquaria may be viewed,
These will be ten in number and will
have a capacity of seven thousand

entrances a great corridor or gallery IS
reached where on one hand can be

an emphatic no. Have public men no

Undoubtedly they have. But the
sweeping judgment which too many

same elements of unfairness and injus-

With the latter, exact opposite is true.
As class they, are honest. So with

The erroneous judgment os public

but so much the better for the reward, :
and Marie Antoinette spoke low in ths
ear Of the Princess de Lamballe. who
took the sabots, went out quickly, and
soon came back, bringing them well
filled with gold
Marquis, put this gold in casket and
send il TO your cobbler with the queens
best thanks, and tell him, too-no, tell
him nothing more. And General de
Lafayette laid in a handsome box and
sent to Chavaniac the two sabotfnls of
gold and the queens Acknowledgements.
Marie Antoinette was pleased to put
the sabots on; yes, they were trifie
large, as she had thought, and she might
even have fallen had there been time
for her to wear them. But it was the
vigil of the Revolution.
The years of the Revolution passed
like whirlwind blasts, with ever greater
fury. Already Collot d'Herbois had
brought an indictment against General
de Lafayette; already the bright, golden
head of the Princess de Lamballe mounted
on pole, had been carried through the
bouIevards of Paris. Darazou, in his
quiet mountain home, knew it; and il
took the color from his face and sent an
guish to his heart And finally, when
he heard that the royal family had been
taken TO the temple, he grew more sad
and serious; and one morning he was
missing from his hut, pretty box wide
open, the old musket gone, and the pict-
ure of the queen.
The poor youth had started for tho
Temple-on foot, with his muslIet at his
side. with all the golden louis sewed in
his drugget vest and the picture of Marie
Antoinette hung around his neck. In
his love and his ingenuousness he had
thought nothing less than that he could
save his queen. He travelled by night,
keeping to the woods by day, weary,
famished, but ever going on.
Finally he reached the city the nth OF
October, 1893, worn and sick, and mad
with rage and tenderness. In the Place
de La Bastille he accosted a patriot, wear
ing Phrygian bonnet and armed with q
club.
"To go to the Temple?" he asked.
what do you want to do at the Tenn.
ple?"
Rescue the queen"
"The Austrian2 Yesterday she was
done for, replied the patriot, with a fe'
rocious gseture and a stupid sneer.
The youth, pale, quickly raised his mus
ket but the patriot anticipated him with
blow that laid him stiff upon the
ground.
An aristocratl Down with the aristo-
craft"
And a crowd collected and rummaged
the body. On his breast they found the
portrait of Marie Antoinette with the
four suspicious letters T. I. L. V. Here

known causes which raise OF depress the
standard of vitality there seems to be-

rhythmic undulation in the flow of vital
force. The dynamo which furnishes
the working powers Of consciousness and
action has its annual, its monthly, its
diurnal waves, even its momentary rip
plies, in the current it furnishes. There
are greater and lesser curves in the move

cending and of descending movements,
a periodicity descending on the very nat
ure of the force at work in the living

short undulations. which / have called
the curve of health. From this fact
spring a great proportion of the errors of
medical practice. On it are based the
delusions of the various shadowy sys-
TENS which impose themselves on the
ignorant and half learned public as
branches or schools Of science. A rem

the curve of health is found successful.
