Early Disparagement of Anesthetics.

1t was predicted that the most serious
malpractices would follow the introdHc-
tion Of the anBsthet1c art. 1t was feared
that the art would be used by the robber,
by the murderer by those who were desir-
GUS of committing deeds of violence, and
that, in short, it would be means of put
ting the most dangerous and ready weapon
Of evil ever dreamed of into the hands of
the evil disposed, the worst disposed of the
whole community.
It was argued that the practice, however
safe and successful it might be, was SIN
full, was opposed to the divinely appointed
decree, and could not be sustained except
in direct defiance of righteous law; for,
was not man born to suffer, and Wa not
pain o part of the curse that had fallen on
man by his first disobedience to the AL
mighty will?
1t was insisted on bya more practical
group of DIRECTORS that, as the process of
anfesthesia became general in its applica-
tion, the mortality Induced by anBsthesia
would of itself be the death warrant of the
declared advancement and bring all it's
glory to the dust,-pr, Richardson in
Longmans' Magazine.

HOW TO COUNT MONEY.
The Rush at the Doors of Circuses and
Other Big Shows.

Otner Big SHOWS.
| The waiting crowd surges about the
| Cuisines end'' of the wagon, and mean
while the two dispensers of tickets have
seated themselves on little bench just in
| side Suddenly the word is given and an
| attendant pulls a strap, hosting the win
dows, and the business commences. Not q
word do these young men have to say to
each other or to their customers. Their
| eyes are looking at fists of all sizes and de-
scriptions, full of money, and from right to
| left and then back again they capture the
clutched coin and bills, moving from side
to side, enabling all to have an equal
chance.
Directly coin or bill is received it is
placed on shelf on a level with the sell
er's arm until the patron has made place
for the next in line; then it is thrown into
huge wicker basket on the floor at his
feet.
This retention Of money in sight for
moment is in order to effectually settle
any dispute by an excited buyer, who
might be inclined to question the accuracy
OF lis change or the amount he had paid
in. 1t seems almost an unnecessary pre-
caution, however, as these young men
never get ratified" and have no time for
talk or argument.
After the rush was over Mr. Callan con-
sented to talk about the difficult art which
embraces accuracy and speed to no limited
extent, and after modestly admitting that
it wasean expert profession in which big
salaries were paa3 to the masters" said:
'We never look at faces-always at the
hand that holds the money That once Sc
cured and the ticket or tickets and change
thrust into it, then on to the next"
Suppose some one bothers YOU with
questions or annoys you in any way, so as
to interfere with your sale, what do you
do?"
He laughed as he pointed to a fat man
standing by. cat a signal that man gets
directly in front Of the fractions one, and
by the simple process of moving backward
gradually, all the time treading on his
corns, the line is opened, and by the time
the crank has got on the outside we have
sold hundreds of tickets
eve have plentiful supply of change
and do not touch the money received.
'Counterfeit money we do not fear; we
can almost tell it by the smell mile off,
and the only notice we take of it is to
whisper one to the other, Bad stuff. Where
is that of1icer?' and the dishonest one who
has offered it can scarcely get away quick
enough. Think of man coming up and
asking for thirteen whole and seven half
tickets and slapping down a handful of
bills and silver to pay. It takes quick
brain and steady head and hand to in
stantly complete the transaction, but, with
little variations as to place and detail, it
occurs so continually that it is almost as
easy as taking fifty cent piece and hand
ing out ticket"
Can any one with training become a
successful lightning ticket seller?''
Said Mr.. Callan, cautiously: II am sure
| don't know, but my opinion, only my
opinion, mind you, is that the circus ticket
seller is born, not made. Philadelphia

MIRRORED MUSIC.

Think you flute Of reeds
The poet asks-can give
A stars song as it speeds
E;dding it breathe and live?
Ask of the river, where
It's current slideth sweet
Across Il Maids bare
And bright unsandaled feet.
Straightway the waters dark
VIII whisper clear and strong:
might is the time to bark
The rush's mystic song.
'sThen do the white winged stars
Descend, in joyous flight,
Tho myriad silver bars
Wrought of the young moons light.
"And then, where never breeze
Shakes it, the still reed hears
And learns the harmonies
Sung by the happy Spheres

Justice Greater Than Charity.

The one divine work-the one ordered
SACRIFICES to do justice, and it is the last
we ape ever inclined to do. Anything
rather than that. AS much charity as you
choose, but no justice. may" you will
say, charity is greater than justice" Yes,
it is greater; 1t is the summit of Justice
it is the temple of which justice is the
foundation. But you can't have the top
without the bottom; you cannot build
upon charity. You must build upon JUS
tice, for this main reason, that you have
not, at first, charity to build with. 1t is
the last reward of good work. Do justice
to your brother (you can do that whether
you love him or not) and you will come to
love him. 1t is all very fine to think you
can build upon charity to begin with, but
you will find all you have to begin with
begins at home and is essentially love OF
yourSelf.-RuSEin,

Some Nautical Facts.

A knot is $3.50 feet long. The distance
from New York to Liverpool is 1904 nauti-
cal miles by the northern track and 3,l39
by the southern track. The former course
is taken by vessels bound for this port; the
latter by vessels bound for Liverpool
From Liverpool to New York the distances
are respectively 5000 and 3,109 miles.
In estimating records, the points taken
on either side are Sandy Hook and Daunt's
rock, Queenstown harhar, The first light
sighted on the British coast is the Bull,
Cow and Calf, Ireland, and on the Ameri-
can coast either Nantucket or Fire island.

Natures Monument to Washington.


Among the many monuments to Wash
ington is the one which every visitor to the
Cape Verde islands will remember as one
of the most colossal and marvellous freaks
of natural sculpture in existence. Along
the farther side Of the harb6r of San vi
eente Qhe principal town rises bold
ridge of dark gray volcanic rocks, the
crest Of which forms an exact likeness OF
our immortal George, seemingly lying face
upward, as if iii peaceful sleep.
The hero's large, bold features, the back
ward wave of the hair, his massive Shout
ders and even the frill of the shirt front
are all reproduced on gigantic scale with
wonderful exactness The strange monu-
ment, sharply outlined against the deep
blue Of the tropical sky, is one of the first
objects that meets ones eye in approach
ing the island. Its gigantic proportions,
with the boundless ocean for background,
form portrait wonderfully true to nature
and overpowering in its magnifeence.
