One of Bishop POtter's Stories.

bishop likes good story, and
Bishop Potter can tell one much better
than the average after-dinner orator.
AT the Colonial Club the other night,
where this distinguished prelate re,
sponded to the first toast, 1.-The Colo
NAL Club" he Illustrated point with
this very fetching story: Some years
ago buXom lady (Mrs. Ruggles by
name), travelling in Europe, improved
hor stay in Rome by visiting the art
galleries. In the vatican she was
made familiar with the great wosks OF
the master artists, and was finally
taken by the guide up to that very
perfection of manly beauty, the Apollo
Belvedere.
This" said the obseGuious attend
ant, sis the Apollo Bclvedcre," giving
the most correct accent TO the penulti-
mate of The marble gods name.
That's the what?' querulously OBJ
served the lady.
The Apollo Belyedere, madam,
matchless for its representation of the
male form"
That's the Apollo BeIvcdeer, is it?
Well, I've heerd of it before" and she
viewed its posterior liueS with inter-
est.
yes, the Apollo Notwithstanding
to match it in the world. madam"
The sightseer had by this time
worked her way around to the statues
front. and glancing from tie feet to
the thin thighs and thence to the stat
ue's head, she looked at the guide with
a deeD-seated expression of DISGUST,
and, rs she turned upon her heels, re-
marked:
swell, if THUS the Apollo Belvedeer,
give me Ruggles."
Bishop Potter. it is needless to say,
caught his audience without another
word.

WATER AS A DEADENER or PAIN.
AS An An3Sthotic 1t Is Declared Prefer
able to Cocaine Ciioroform.

A discovery in the domain of ames-
thetics is being a good deal talked
about in medical circles in Vienna.
which, if it bears the severe tests which
it is proposed to apply to it, will prove
an inestimable boon to suffering hui
mainly. Neither of the two agencies
heretofore employed bv surgeons to
deaden or minimize physical pain dur-
ing serious operations, chlorOform and
cocaine, is wholly free from danger.
Chloroform cannot be administered to
persons suffering from heart disease,
poverty of blood, etc, and cocaine in
jectiUns under the skin have more than
once had exceedingly delcterious eff
fects.
The new discovery, which is credited
to DR.. X. l.. Schleisch, determines the
fact that absolute local immunity from
pain, even during protracted opera
tons, can be obtained without resort
ing TO general narcosis of the patient,
so that sufferer may remain perfectly
conscious during the amputation of
his hand or foot without undergoing
the fortunes usually associated with
such operations, or exposing himself
to the danger of svncope ever present
in the operating room. 1t appears
that simultaneous injections of solu-
ton of salt. and even of simple cold
distilled wafer, will produce exactly
the same local anasthetc effects as
cocaine.
The explanation of the phenomenon
is simple. Local insensibilty to pain
is caused in the case of cocaine bv
purely chemical changes; while cold
water acts mechanically-by means of
high pressure and low temperature.
Under the influence of the high pres
sure and sudden lowering of tempera-
ture the blood and lymph are driven
from the region operated upon TO
places where the pressure is less. The
tissue is thus deprived of its supply of
blood and temporary paralysis of the
nerves results.
1t is stated on the authority d one
of the first physicians of Europe that
the Importance of this discovery is all
the more undoubtcd seeing that if, in
a given case, cold water should fail to
produce the needful degree of insensi-
bility, weak and absolutely harmless
solution of cocaine would prove GER
tainly efficacious

Distance Learned by Touch.

Bishop Berkeley's theory that a
knowledgc of distance is acquired BY
touch and not by sight. and that the
eye Judges only by the experience
learned with the other sense. is borne
out By the experience of those cross
ing the Brooklyn bridge. AT the
highest point. when one sees only the
water below and nothing by which to
measure the distance. people do not
teel dizzy. because they do not appre-
clate the height. But nearer shore.
where iney can realize il by looking at
the houses and chimnevs, they are
often troubled by head swimming.
