Exertion and Heart Dizease.


A surgeon states that of 5000 de-
crepit or aged soldiers that have been
broug hit under his notice fully eighty
per cent were suffering from heart dis
ease in one form or another, due to the
forced physical exertion of the cam
paign; and he predicts that as large a
percentage of the athletes of to-day
will be found, twenty-five years from
now, to be the victims of heart dis
ease, engendered by the muscular
strains that they force themselves to
undergo. With regard to the effect of
exercise on the prolongation of life it
1t may be said that there are more
people living in France to-day who
have passed the age of sixty than
there are in England, the home of
athletic sports. and there is probably
no notion in Europe more averse to
cultivation for it's own sake
than the French. Great athletes die
young, and mortality list of Oxford
men who had rowed in the 'versity
races, published a few years ago,
showed that a comparatively small
percentage of them lived out the al
lotted time.

A Chinese HOSPITAL,

The average Chinamau has a terri
BILE dread of our public hospitals. He
imagines that he will be cut up before
he is dead, and is quite certain this
will be his fate if he dies there. So he
prefers to crawl into the corner Of the
laundry where he washes, and stupefy
himself slowly to death with opium.
But some OF the church people in
Brooklyn have started to overcome
this idea, and have rented house,
furnished it, and installed as house
surgeon DIR. Thorn, brainy young
Chinaman who graduated from the
Long Island Medical college,. Two
patients and five beds constitute the
rest of the institution, but it has hopes.
A Chinese cook is TO be also part of
the programme. and he will prepare
the articles Of diet in Monaghan style.

HISTORICAL,

john Adams was Unitarian.
Goethe began the first part OF
''Faust' as early as 1776.
OF the thirteen original colonies in
America, Georgia was the latest set
tied.
Faneuil Hall, Boston, was built. in
1742, burned in 1861 and was rebuilt
in 1853.
AS early as 1923 number of trading
posts were established in what is now
New Hampshire, and from these sew
eral settlements sprung.
The Italians used fans early in the
seventeenth century. 1t was during
the eighteenth century that the lavish
ornamentation of fans reached it's
height, one often representing a small
fortune in the matter of jewels, cary
ing and painting.
When James II. was made king, he
united all New England under one gov
ernor, Sir Edmund Andres, who was
naughty and severe, and far from loved
by the colonists. So it was with ioy
that the people of Massachusetts heard
OF the overthrow of James H., for they
now hoped to be rid of their tyrannic
governor. Agents were sent to plead
with William and Mary, not only to
remove Andres, but to restore the
charter which Charles II. had taken
aWaV. Andres was called home and n
new charter given in 1851, by which
Massachusetts became royal province.
The Plymouth colony and Maine were
made parts of Massachusetts at this
time, and Sir William Phjpps made
governor.

A NEW DEATH-DEAL
What Germany Rifle Does with Its Lump
Of Lead.

what Germany Rifle Does with Its Lump
Of Lead.
The new rifle with which the German
army and navy have been armed dur
ing the last few months is a terror in
the way of small weapons. The gun
has a bore of 31-inch and throws a.
projectile of lead coated with nickel
steel weighing 14.5 grains, or about
half an ounce. The cartridge used
weighs nearly an ounce, and is 1926
inches in length. The magazine of
the rifle carries five cartridges The
speed of the bullet on leaving the
muzzle OF the gun is about 21OO feet
per second, and the limit of it's effec-
tive range is little under two miles.
At 100 yards the rifle ball will pene-
trate deal block 80 inches thick, aud
at 1900 yards it will go through a 2
inch plank. Experiments have shown
that an earth-work parapet cannot
afford shelter against these rifles un-
less it has a thickness of at least 80
inches.
Brick walls of small thickness are
not absolute proof against this gun, as
several shots striking the same spot
will make a breach.

An Italian has just arrived in Lon
don with an instantaneous, self-ex--
panding, life-saving belt" by which
heexpects to enrich himself from the
pockets of the people who are ner-
vous at sea. 1t has already been
adopted by the principal steamship
comp;'nies of Italy. The unique
feature of this new life-saving belt is
that it may be worn around the
body while promenading about the
decks during the day, and is not.
even taken off in bed. 1t weighs
about twice as much as one of the
ordinary canvas orleather belts sold
for general use. In it's finished state
it is about the last thing in the world
that a prudent man would place con-
fidence in if he was to attempt to
jump for his life from the deck of a.
sinking vessel into the sea. But the.
moment the belt touches the water.
two chemical substances contained
in it are Instantly united and it be-
gins to initiate with gas. What these
substances are is the inventors Sc
cret. He claims that one belt will
keep the most heavily clothed per-
son afloat tor forty.eight hours.
For ladies the belts are made of silk

Plaster Can Be Made Like Marble.

Marmoreine is the name of newly
invented liquid possessing the quality
of hardening plaster. a single ap-
plication being claimed to render
plaster as hard as marble and un-

result is accomplished not by the mere
formation of an impervious coating,
but by an actual chemical change in
the constitution of the plaster. This
treatment is in extensive use in En-.

fares of the town, retailing laces and
similar ladies' furnishing materials.
From time to time he missed tri-
fling articles from the counters, but
could not account for their mystic
rious disappearance.
He directed his book keeper to open
a fictitious account in his ledger, to
which he gave the title OF "Thiet's
Account" to the debit side of which
were charged all articles that we're
missed-and which were invariably
stolen by some person who visited
the store. >
For nearly a year no clew had
been found to the cause of this leak
despite the most careful watch ng of
strangers.
One day there entered the store a
well-dressed, ladylike person, whom
the storekeeper knew by name, for
she had been there before, who
bought some trifing articles; and
while she waited for the parcel to be
made up the merchant, who stood a
short distance from her, observed a
small but valuable lace collar slipped
from the counter where there we're
several paper-boxes of goods open;
and, though he was greatly astonish-
ed, and could, scarcely credit, it, yet
he was satisfied that this lady had
drawn that collar into her capricious
muff.
1t had disappeared, at all events.
1t might have been accidental; it
was so he at first believed, for
surely that we'll attired lady, whom
he knew moved in good society, and
who was supplied generously with
pin money by her highly respected
and liberal husband, could not be a
thief.
At night he said to the clerk at the
desk, "Charge thief account with one
lace colIar-$1O," for it had gone,
and this was always the rule in such
cases-always.
And three days subsequently, hav-
ing thought the matter over quietly,
and called to mind some cases of So
called kleptomania of which he had
read and heard, he concluded this
must. be an instance akin to that
disease. So he said to his book
keeper:
"Mr. Quill, draw off the 'Thief's
Account and give me a fair copy of
it,
What part, sir?''
'"The whole"
When the clerk, handed it to him
he asked:
How much does it figure up?''

collar?"

And, putting on his hat and over
