How High Can Man Live?

Mr.. Webber, the traveller, states that
in Thibet he has lived four months to-
gether ut a height of more than ID 600
feet above sea level. and that the re-
suit was as follows: His pulse, at the
normal heights only sixty-thrcc beats
per minute, seldom fell below 100
beats per minute during the whole
time he resided at that level. His res
pirations were often twice rs numerous
in the minute as they were in the or
binary level. A run of 100 yards
would quicken both pulse and respira-
ton more than run of l. 600 yards at
sea level, and he found that the higher
the level the greater the difficulty of
running or walking fast. He crossed
the Gurla Mandhata mountain at a
height of 10000 feet. and found lie had
the utmost difficulty in getting his
breath fast enough. Webbcr also says
that the native guides OF the mountains
suffered equally as much, if not more
than he

OMIss BLACKBURN was elected superin-
tendent of Schools of Winnebago county
last fall. At the time she was engaged
in teaching in Chicago. After her cleo
ton she could not Immediately secure
her release from her engagement in Chi
cago and the 20 days allowed her IN which
to file her official oath had passed before
her resignation was accepted. Supt.
Wells appointed man named John Har-
rington to fill the vacancy and Miss
Blackburn has lost both her school and
her office. Under the law she could quail
later and act legally urless cut off by the
appointment or election of some one to
fill the vacancy. Indeed it is a serious
question whether the vacancy should not
have been filled by special election in
stead Of BY appointm ant.

DRINK NkHE
Where They Cam From aud What Was
Their Or Sinai Neau;nG.

Their Or gfnai Nraa!nc.
Alcohol is an Arabic word. SAYS The
Davenport Dcm0crat Gag IT, Not that
the Arab invented alcohol as we un-
derstand the article. Their alcohol
Gal kohD is Il fine. impaiatable powder
made from antinony aud used 10 paint
The eyebrows with. TIE extension of
the mcanin" from tine powder TO
''rect!ied spirits is European. not
Arabic. Whisky is simply uisge n
Gaelic word-water. Originally it
was uiS~e-beatha water of life. but
the life part was long since dropped.
Cider is said 10 be the juice of APP
pies. This was not the former mean-
ing. 1t simply meant strong drink.
In the Latin it is sicera. strong drink;
the Greek sikera and the Hebrew shO-
kar also meaning strong drink. 1t
has, therefore. less TO do with the ap-
pie than with the grape or the alcohol
producing grain. 1t is an example of
such words as have lost their places.
As to wine, the word means TO
Irvine. Sherry is Il Spanish word, and,
like the malaga or port wine, obtained
its name from the town from which it
was shipped. Malaga wine was from
the town of Malaga. The word is
Ph9nician, meaning salt. Port wine
took its name from Oporto. and o porto
means the harbor. Sherry was brought
from Xeres in Spain. and Xeres
(sherris) is n corruption of Cesar.
The name sherris sack of Shakespeare
is sherry scc-dry sherry-free from
foam and sparkle. Claret is from no
particular grape-a manufactured ar
ticlc. and so called from its supposed
clarity The name is not
used in Franco. Hook wines are COM
monty supposed to he of Rhineland
product-not according to the Ger
man, but the English. Hook wine
came TO London from Hochheim (high
home). Hochheim is not on the
Rhine. but on the Main. and it was the
London trade with Hochheim that
fixed the name Hook, in English par
lance, upon Rhine wines.
Grog, the name of Il drink ration
served to marines. The word has no
connection with drinkables. Admiral
Vernon of the British navy wore a
grogram (gros-grain-i. e., coarse
textured) coat. and on that account
was nicknamed by his seamen "Old
Grog." The rum and water ration
that he dealt out literally to his men
was therefore called grog. So in like
manner did Col. Negus' wine. water
and sugar mixture get the name of
negus. Teddy is Ilindoo word-a
drink made of the milk and juice of
the toddy tree-thc Palmyra palm. In
Christian lands it is mixture of vari-
Gus ardent spirits.

IF the three members of the Illinois
legislature who hold the balance of pow
er in that.body should absolutely refuse
to vote for Palmer for the q. S. senate,
why would it not be good idea to take
up Morrison and let Palmer go? There
is no other man in the United States so
devoted to the principles of tariff reform
or as sincere and unselfish in his desire to
secure legislation free from all taints OF
favoritism. Besides he is himself farm
er and has always been friendly to agri-
cultural interests. Morrison is not the
inferior of Palmer in ability and he suf-
fered defeat because the monopolists
feared him and flooded his district with
money for the purpose OF keeping him
out of congress. Now that the principle
for which he fought is in the ascendant
there would be poetic justice IN sending
