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 NJ
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 T 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 a time when n
blue eyed person was rarely seen, and
today seven-eIghths of the worlds in
habitants have dark eyes. Lavater,
when discussing the eye as a 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.

The Rev. DR.. Wayland thus happily
describes the attitude of public opinion
toward morality: 1--WE go along and
wink with both eyes at the wrougdoings
and shortcomings of y and also of b,
and exc of G, and all the rest of them;
but by the time we get to o or p, we
pull up and cry aloud that this thing has
gone too far, and we must make a stand;
and so we come down upon P, who is
not a whit more guilty than any one else,
his only crime consisting in the fact that
he CHANGED to be standing Just in the
place where the lightning struck; and
we denounce p; we excoriate p; we os-
tracise p.
Having done that, our virtue, wearied
with the unwonted exercise, falls asleep,
and all the other letters go along doing
exactly the same thing, until finally, by
the time Y is reached, we wake up again
and go through the same process. If one
wants to go astray with IMMUNITY all he
has to do is to select his time and run in,
as it We're, between the spasms of public
virtue. New York Tribune.

Not long before his death Barnum
summoned his lawyer to the side OF the
couch where he was lying. II am very
much worried, he said, about a certain
matter, and want to consult you. My
neighbor keeps peacocks. Suppose some
Of them should fly over into my yard
which they are doing all the time-and
lay some Eggs here. Would those eggs
belong to me, OF could my neighbor com
pei me to give them upg"
The lawyer. having duly scratched his
head, answered: We'll, Mr.. Barnum, /
must take time to look into this matter.
But the best thing for you to do would
be to keep the eggs and let your neigh
Dor sue for their possession. In that way
your rights would be determined, and
we should have a very valuable test
case" well" said Barnum, while
you are looking into the matter will you
find put how it would be If the eggs
were laid by peahensy' The lawyer
swore softly to himself, but never made
any investigation.-San Francisco Argo-
naut.

Cases of Considerable Rarity In the III
tory Of the Healing Art.

Cases 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. 1t
is a poisonous salt developed in the proc
ess of putrefaction, and a case of this
kind Of poisoning is rarely seen so marked
as this case, because it is seldom that
people eat meats that are pronouucedly
tainted.
In this case the meat was in the most
dangerous stage, and all that ate it were
very sick. An evidence which shows
that this was a 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 a pinched ex-
preston of the face. This is often mis-
taken by the best physicians for other
troubles, and such n mistake is not sur
prising when the best chemists do not
thoroughly understand the nature of
these cases and the poison.
1t is a 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 a
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 n case with
fatal results before. In giving the pc
culiar effects of the poison he cited n
medical work which is compiled from
the best authorities over the world:
"No characteristic ~post-Inortem APP
pearances are recognizable. The body
is emaciated and the skin bleached and
parchment-hke. 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 a rule, is dark
and contains no foreign organisms or
elements. The corpuscles are unaltered.
The lungs are frequently congested and
9dematous."
"Often," says DR.. Lutte, 1.-The symp-
toms are the same as in the case of ar
senic poisoning, but this is not always
so."-Denver News.

A laugh vas raised in the United
States district court by the testimony of
John Boye, a resident of Lewiston, NY.

Reuter-" is a word which is pretty fa-
miliar to most newspaper readers, yet
few are aware that Reuters system Of
news supply is practically not more than
thirty years old. In 1s49 Baron Reuter-
tried to introduce his agency into the
metropolis, but the London newspapers
would have nothing to do with him. At
first he confined his attention to the sup
ply Of financial intelligence, but in 1859
he managed to be first in the field with a
report of the speech delived by Napoleon
III at the New Years reception in the
Tuileries. and from thenceforwsri Reut-
er's agency became an established fact
The Press association, or Up. A" AS it
is called by newspaper people, is an even
more recent institution. Prior to 1868
it was unknown.-Chambers Journal

A unique character in the Princeton
college faculty is Joseph Korge, profess
or of modern languages. Adventure
and experience of a rough nature have
marked his life, the earlier part Of which
was spent in Europe. Coming from u
family of Polish gentlemen who made
arms their profession, he went into the
German army soon after finishing his
university education, and for a time was
closely associated with Prince Frederick.
Later on the Polish insurrection drew
him into 1t and made n longer residence
within Russian dominions undesirable.
So the ardent Pole came to this country,
and won distinction in the Union army
before he settled down as a pedagogue
under the shadow of old Nassau .-Har-

An expert book reviewer does not need
to read n book thoroughly in order to de-
scribe it sufficiently for his purpose.
Most newspaper book reviews are mere
descriptions and not criticisms, and such
notices a be written quickly by one
who has had experience and has the
necessary ability. When a publisher
sends iii n book Of sufficient importance
to deserve a careful criticism, either the
editor takes time to read it or he dele
gates the work 10 somebody else. There
are n few papers that always give care
full reviews of the books they notice, but
their number is very small. Writer.

This city own one piece of statuary
that few persons see, although it is a
work peculiarly significant because of the
approaching anniversary. Standing in
the gloom Of the first floor hall in the
arsenal building in Central park is a
marble statue of Columbus Of heroic size.
1t is the work Of Emma Stebbins, and it
was made in Rome in 1867. The great
discoverer stands with one hand on the
tiller and the other grasping the light
mantle about his shoulders. New York
