ner, and on the cans he affixes a labe
which is unique in its way. In connec
ton with a picture of a lobster are the
words: "God is Love, Selected Crown
Brand" Around q picture of the lion
and unicorn are the words: "The lust
shall live by faith. I am thy shield and
exceeding great reward. Trade mark, R.
B. Noble" Around the picture of some
medals are the words: "Come and take
the water of life freely. Fresh Lobster.
r. B. Noble was awarded six medals over
all competitors" And in another place
are the words: "To as many as received
Him, to them gave He power to become
the sons of God. I am the way, the truth
and the light. R. B. Noble. None gen.

1t is known that drowning is not un-
pleasant, and now the master mechanic of
a large cotton mill near Quebec has had an
experience that goes to show that the sem
sations of electrocution are rather pleasant
than otherwise, provided the victim gets
enough 80 that he does not come back to
consciousness. He was drawn up like a
flash, dashed bodily against the ceiling
four feet above the wire, and then thrown
to the floor, where he lay for over an hour
unconscious. At the time he got the shock
the power was running through the wire
at l, 100 volts The whole proceeding
probably did not take over two seconds.
This is what he says of the sensation pro-
duced. 81 felt myself drawn up with re-
rapidity. Blue flame issued
from my eyes. 1t was intensely blue, and
yet brilliant. I felt sensation such
never experienced before As far as 1
could realize the feeling was pleasurable.
[ felt that my time had come, and then 1
lost consciousness. When fully regained
my senses, began to suffer for the first
time. All over my body came tingling,
prickling sensations, which were agoniz-
ing. Sparks would at Intervals shoot from
my eyes. My body was SO sore that 1
could not bear my clothing"
Professor Nothnagel of Vienna, a great
medical authority, delivered lecture the
other evening before the university upon

raced the disease back to the ninth CEN

or three or four years with varying inten- |
ity and then die out for twenty years.
he expressed belief, founded on expert
'nce. that those who have had the malady
'nce are not proof against it, but are less
pen to the infection. There is no specific |
emedy for the disease, and, in spite of all
ssertions to the contrary, it is still a puz-
lie to the doctors, who know only that it

The poison affects the whole body, and
here are three kinds of inhuenza-nervous,
astric and catarrhal. There are also two
orts of consequent ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
the less dangerous, and the real
Influenza pneumonia, which usually at
acks the heart. The professor uttered an
mphatic warning against the use of an
ipyrine and antifebrine, but said that as
nfuenza pneumonia usually affects the
ardiac muscle, it is desirable to employ
as for instance, digitalis wine,
ognac, arrac, simultaneous injections of
amphor, and, in some cases, baths.
