Swiss SCHOOLGIRLS.

OF Swiss schoolgirls: French and music

there was no grind of college preparation.
Nobody was studying for an examination.
This prevented certain strenuousness of
tone and tensity of excitement which are
apt to exist with Us in the more earnest
schools. On the other hand there was in
the girls themselves none of that intellect
ual interest which we hnd among bright
American girls who are pursuing classical
studies together. They had among them
selves no such esgerness of conversation;
they did not appear to discuss the prob
lems OF life or so feel personally answera-
BILE for their solution, aud as comaared
with set either of clever or of fashionable
girls they seemed very young for their
years, though in some instances very bright.

If the school had not the stamp of a col.
lege preparatory, neither had il the char

young ladies' Careful attention was paid

ties of social usage. The necessity for a
woman of being womanly was frankly
dwell upon and taken for granted as a
basis OF aetlon; but a trivial or petty view
oil things was strongly discouraged. and the

STAYING The HAND or DEATH.

Bhere Is Said to BE Certain and Rapid
Means of Besuscitstion.
Colonel Henry Elsdale, of the Royal
engineers, claims to have discovered
certain and rapid means of resuscitating
persons from the effects of suffocation.
A sapper among the men under his COM
mand at Chatham was one day found
enveloped in the folds Of a half empty
war balloon. The coal gas with which
it had been inflated had suffocated him,
and to all appearances he was dead
man. But efforts were made to restore
him, though tho pulseless heart and ca
daverous face of the man gave no en-
courage1nent to persevere In a mo-
ment of something like inspiration il
occurred to Colonel Elsdale to send for
some tubes Of compressed oxygen, which
had been prepared for the oxyhydrogen
light.
This pure oxygen, at a very high pres
sure, was hurfiedly conveyed into the
mouth of the PROSTATE sapper by meana
of inserting the nozzle Of the valve be-
tween his teeth, and the supply was
gently turned on" to the smallest ex-
tent. The effect was absolutely instan-
taneous. In an instant he opened his
eyes and seized the nozzle between his
teeth. In short, the sapper was not only
thoroughly revived within a few min
utes, but in half an hour walked away,
quite well, to the barracks, and refused
to go to the military hospital. as Was
cV7 tod fauxh 1e
OF course the objection viii be raised
that everybody has not tubes of pure
oxygen at high pressure in readiness to
apply to such cases Happily oxygen in
quantities as large as those administered
Is not needed, and it can be stored Sin
small, strong bottles made of the finest
steel, with valve giving an absolute
hermetic seal"
These vessels may be as small as a
soda water bottle, and may be made part
of the medical stock of every doctor.
Oxygen at any degree of compression
required can, in fact, now be obtained,
and the whole apparatus for restoring
vitality can be packed in small box
quite portable.
What possibilities may not such dis
covery as that to which we have drawn
attention invelvel 1t is equally availa-
BILE, we are assured, for those persons
who have been asphyxiated by choke
damp in coal mines, or by ordinary coal
gas. People apparently drowned, and
those insensible from long exposure in
the rigging of ship, might also be saved
from an untimefy end by what Colonel
Elsdale calls ga dose of oxygen"
1t would probably be invaluable, too,
In cases OF suffocatiOn from the fumes of
or in cases where chloroform
had operated injurieusly on a weak
heart. Such discovery should at once
occupy the attention of the Royal Col
lege of Physicians, with view of ascer-
tanning whether Colonel Elsdale has
overrated the benefcient effects to be an
from the administration of
pure oxygen.-London Chronicle.

PHILOSOPHICAL QUOTATIONS.

You can never make friend by asking q
man to mourn with you
It occasionally happens that when people
gossip they tell the truth.
The man who is always good misses lots
of opportunities for growing wiser
There are too many men who think they
are religious, when they are only scared to
death
1t seems as natural for women to cry
with each other as it is for men to laugh
with each other
The hardest work any man could do
would be to have good time in the way a
man twenty years younger than himself
has bis.
As they grow older mans nose grows
fatter and woman's grows sharper and
thinner; good sign that it is the woman
whose nose is kept to the rrindstons

DRUNKENNESS zMexo WOMEN.

DR.. Lucy NJ. Hall, lecturine at Cooper
Union on Tuesday evening, reported that
she has found, as the result OF carefurYpyes-
legations of the subject, that drunkenness Is
becoming alarmingly frequent among
women. Habits Of drinking arc extending,
more especially among the girls employed In
factories and workshops, and, as they are
more likely to generates morbid dependence
on stimulants In women than In men, the:
vice. or disease, Of inebriety grows rapidly
there according to the observation OF this
woman physician.
It Is undoubtedly true that the women Of
this country in all circles Of society drink
moro alcohol now than formerly. The
amount Of the stimulant consumed by them
per head must be considerably greater than
It was twenty-five years ago, or at any prevl-,
GUS period since the great temperance eg1a-
ton which resulted in the passage OF the ia
nous Maine Liquor law in 1851. As wealth:
and luxury have increased the number OF
tables upon which wine Is served regularly
has multiplied enormously, and the women
of the households partake Of it very genera-
". The introduction of lager beer during
the last generation has also had tendency
to INCREASE greatly the consumption Of alco-
hol among women. A large part OF tae
working people Of oil the large towns drink
lager beer regularly at their meals buying is
by the quart at neighboring saloons. Ina
crowds ut the beer gardens in the evening
are composed usually Of about as many
women as men. Every corner liquor shop,
also. has q side door by which women are ad-
mitted to q special compartment for their
use The great majority OF the women OF
New York are more or less regular consum"
ers of alcohol in some form.-NeU York Sun.
