That strange and difficult tongue
which is supposed to have once en-
braced the greater part of north
eastern Europe, is now practically re-
stricted to a remote and sparsely
populated province of the Russian
empire and, despite the Fictitious
support accorded to it in the past by
the Russian government, its area
seems to be steadily if slowly reced.
ing. Nor is this at all surprising
when we come to examine the Ian.
guage itself. Finnish grammar is
of a difficulty absolutely repulsive.
None of the other languages of the
same group is half so hard. Hun.
garian-nay, even Turkish, despite
the vexatious initial impeachment of
the Arabic alphabet-is easy in com.
parison.
The syntax is at once provokingly
elaborate and perpleXingly obscure.
1t possesses fifteen distinct cases and
four and twenty differentiated infn
tive forms, but on the other hand
there is no real distinction between
nouns, adjectives, adverbs, preposi
tons, infinitives and participles, sc
that the student must not be startled
by finding infnitives regularly de
clined like nouns, and nouns taking
upon them degrees of comparison like
adjectives. -Anthen9um.

A Monstrons Monstrositu.

The New York Medical association
and all the NJ. d. of the great metropo-
lis are agog over the appearance of a
freak OF the most startling nature. This
monster of monstrosities is full grown
man in the undisputed possession Of
three tongues, four chins, three cheeks
and three ears, one of the latter being AS
large as that of an elephant. Besides the
three separate tongues mentioned, this
uneXhibited freak has four smaller ones,
which seem to be undeveloped from
nothing but want of space. They are as
perfect in formation as the larger ones.
but are so small Qess than an inch in
lengthy that they are not claimed by the
unfortunate possessor to be tongues at
all.
The man can speak plainly and fluent
ly in three different languages. He has
four well formed chins, the lower one
being fully ten inches from the upper
lip The right side of his face is nor
NAL, but the left is divided into two sep
arate cheeks. What the doctors con-
slider the most wonderful of all this
wonderful creatures makeup is the Vi
gantlc ear on the left side OF his head.
1t hangs down like the ear of an ele-
plant, measuring exactly twenty -one
inches from the crown TO the lower end
OF the lobe! This mammoth article is
perfect in formation and use, with the
exception of its size and the fact that
the opening is about ten inches below
the side of the head.
This, the greatest of the nineteenth
century human wonders is Juan Jose
Antonio. He was born slave in ,Jeru.
salem of Arabian slave parents. When
he was twenty-five years of age he was
stolen by band of Arab slave dealers
and taken into Egypt. They kept him
for some months in Alexandria and Their
took him to Mexico. From the last
named country he escaped and finally
landed in New York.-St. Louis Re

Fresh Air in Winter.

Why is fresh air, the very breath of
our nostrils, treated by nine-tenths of
us as an enemy throughout the winter?
1t is as essential to health and life i'll one
season as i'll another, and yet from No
vember until May seven-eighths of us do
our best to barIicade our dwellings
against it. 1t is impossible to prevent
such a close besieger from gaining the
advantage now and then, but we dc
what we can to make our castles i'm
pregnable to the outer air. We fortify
our doors and windows with contrivances
of all kinds to exclude it, and when
through some oversight it gains admis-
sion we exhaust the intruder with over
heated stoves and furnaces. If we can
not altogether keep it out we can at
least poison it when it gets in.
A few hundred of us, congregated in
an unventilated room. can soon deprive
the air it contains of its vital principle
and were it not that this sleepless enemy
outside occasionally makes plunge into
the apartment when newcomer steps
in to assist i'll the poisoning operation
the coroners would never have mo-
ment they could call their own. AS it
is, the opponents of fresh air keep them
pretty busy.
The occupants of tenement houses, by
dint of stopping up crevices with rags
and shutting down the hampers of their
cracked stoves so as toprevent the egress
of the coal gas from their dormitories
provide the malignant typhus with AL
the comforts of a home and contrive to
put large amount of fees into the
pockets of the coroners during the in
clement months. Self suffocation is
quite an constitution" in this communi
ty.-New York Ledger.

The job Was Done.

1t was big Fairfield rooster and
he regularly patrolled the track OF
the Waterville and Fairfield horse
railroad. Half dozen times each
day. the drivers would halt their cars
in order to allow the perverse fowl
to stalk serenely off the track. In
time the rooster became a sort OF
railroad specter, and he was talked
about around the stables with partic
ularly lively hatred.
One day substitute driver took q
car for a trip. When he returned tc
the stable his face beamed with eX
ultant malice and he proudly an
nounced, I've killed that dad-quiz
zled old rooster; cut his head plum
off, got him right and run over hin
on purpose.
This was pleasant until the new
driver heard the sequel. The trouble

ther, and he found the family lament

into Office. Prac- PRESIDENT PALACIo
tically Da Fonseca's career in Brazil was a
parallel one, and the threatened revolution
in Venezuela will be, if it should ever break
out, the direct effect of the same general
cause.
A clause in Nenezuela's constitution fixes
the term of Office of the president at two
years and makes him ineligible for re-elec-
ton This provision DR.. Andueza Palacio,
president of the republic, does not like and
he is using every means at his command to
get congress, which will meet in February,
to so amend the instrument that he may
be continued without another election for
two years beyond the term for which he
was originally chosen. He has imprisoned
fearless journalists who have dared to criti-
else his acts, and he has also caused the eX-
pulsion of DR.. Rojas Paul, his predecessor,
to whom he owes his present position, An
alliance has been formed by the brainiest
men in Venezuela, and unless Palacic
changes his tactics before long there may
be a revolution.

Evidence of Former Experiences.

James Richardson, q middle aged
man, was pushed into the receiving
hospital by Il policeman at an early
hour one morning. He required SUI
gical treatment. There was blood
on his face, on his shirt and on his
hands. An interesting assortment of
cuts decorated his scalp and his left
eye resembled a ripe plum.

Freeman.
Yep" was the reply from bruised
lips.
"Got icked2"
yep" and the victim settled back
while Freeman went to work with
sponge, needle and plaster. While at
work Freeman was observing Rich
ardson's nose. That organ was some
what swollen and it pointed over its
owners right shoulder, lying almost
fiat to the face.
Nose broken2" the steward in
quired.
Yep" again answered the mutt
lated man. Freeman seized hold OF
Richardson's nasal organ vigorously
and tried to pull it out straight. II
did not bulge, but the man did. He
howled like wolf and swore like a
pirate.
Keep still till l fix it, said the
steward, preparing for another pull.

Victims of Fashion.

A correspondent of the Rockland (Me.)
Tribune calls attention to the present
scarcity of medricks, those swallowlike
birds that once have been counted by
thousands along Maine bays and har-
bors. Their disappearance is due partly
to fishermen who collected their eggs for
food. and who, to insure fresh eggs
made visits to their breeding places on
two successive days; the first was to
break all eggs on the island, the second
to pick up the fresh eggs. In this way
many more eggs were destroyed than
carried away. But in spite of t. Is
rihing, destructive as it was, the birds
thrived fairly well until the ladies took
it into their heads, or rather the god
Fashion decreed, that their bonnets must
be adorned with a tern. Then the de
struction began at wholesale.
An enterprising millinery establish
ment sent collector to the Maine coast,
who established himself on an island and
slaughtered thousands. In fact, so many
were killed that the price for them, ready
mounted for use, was only twenty cents
each. How easily they could be killed
may be understood when it is known
that when one of these birds is killed
the others, instead of flying away, keep
darting down as if to assist their fallen
cOmraQe.

A prominent Montana man sounds note
of warning well worthy attention. He
says: when over 80, 600, 900, 600 feet of lum-
Der are being cut each year it behooves the
government To make more definite arrange
ments for the conservation of American
forests. The railroads alone are using l0O
900, 900 ties a year. Already we have ar
rived at stage where the natural wood
crop in certain directions shows signs OF
exhaustion, and the mere question of ma
terial supply assumes national impor-
