No Title.

The proper title of an ex-president
Is his plain Ialnc, without prefix or
annex A writer In The Outlook
tells an Incl ent illustrative OF this
fact: Col. Hay once had occasion to
write to Mr. buchanan,
Wishing to be very correct and
civil, ! asked Mr.. Hunter, as the de.
pository OF all official traditions, what
was the proper title to use.
He told me that the rank OF an ex.
president was SO high that no title
could properly be used, and that tho
Sage OF Wheatland was James Blu.
chanan. afterward found that this
was the law observed by the State
Department. ! imagine that very
few correspondents know Or regard
such rule.

When an undeveloped youngster oil
I6 can ride eighteen miles in fifty-seven
minutes and ten seconds-half the dis
tancc against strong head wind-it is
evident that the evolution of the bicy-
.ele is still in progress. Rau's perform
anee in the Chicago road race shows
the perfection to which the modern
wheel, with its pneumatic tires, ball
Bearings and perfect construction, has
been brought. The cyclist long ago
distanced the ordinary trotting horses
and he is now in close pursuit OF the
thorough bpreds, and as his ambition
knows ,ao bounds he will sooner or later
be found challenging the locomotive TO
short distance contests. What the fu-
tnre of the bicycle may oe IL Is unsafe
to predict. Every year IT has been an
nounced that the machine has reached
it's highest developmenJ, yet each sue
eesding year brings forth fresh i'm
proyements. American skill and in
genuity are at work, and it is within
the bounds OF probability that the road
race may some time be won In forty
i've minutes or eYen les5.

When will corn and wheat reach the
same price per bushel? Not a few
careful observers of the signs OF the
times prec let that before the new CEN
tury dawns, corn will reach higher
price than wheat, which can be pro
duced the round world over. Already
the money value OF this 'distinetiyely
American crop is nearly double that
of the wheat crop of the country. AS
a food it is fast gaining high favor
among the people of the old world. 1t
is easily raised and does net exhaust
the soil and has been the surest and
greatest source of wealth for this
country. The corn belt is limited
one, considering our immense area.
Land within its limits has never shown
any permanent depreciation. In the
course of events farm values in this
corn belt must range higher and prove
more profitable than mines and min
eral wealth.

The Vitality of Men.

There are two parts Of the human
organism. DR.. Balfour tells US, which
if wisely used largely escapes senile
failure. " These two are the brain and
the heart Persons who have often
wondered why brain workers, great
statesmen and others, should continue
to work with almost unimpaired men
tai activity and energy up to period
when most of the organs and func-
tions of the body are in a condition of
advanced senile decay. There is a
physiological reason for this, and DR..
Balfour tells us what it is. The nor
NAL brain, he affirms, "remains vigor-
GUS to the last, )" and that "because its
nutrition is specially provided for"
Who is there among those who have
reached or passed middle age that will
not be reioiced to find such admirable
physiological warrant for the belief
that the brain may continue to work
and even to improve almost to the
very last hour Of life? As in the case
of the brain, there seems to be excel
lent physiological warrant for the con
clusion that ceteris paribus the aged
heart succeeds to, al any rate, rela-
tive increase of strength as time goes
on. London Hospital.

Bear Imbeddca in a Block Of Ice.

"While at Birch Creek, said Mr..

discovery Of a wonderful cave by
miner named Schumann. was un-
able to visit the cave, which is located
forty miles above AMSTERDAM Creek.
Sehumann states that this cave is so
feet in length and varies from four to
20 feet in width. After entering
through small aperture, the sides of
which are composed Of granite, one
energies into a solid ice chamber,
from which hang numerous stalactites
glistening like silver. Schumann was
surprised that there were a number OF
air currents in the cave, the source of
which he could not determine. At
one side he found a black bear sitting
partly upright The sight of the ami
nal alarmed him greatly at first, but
failing to detect any signs of life he
approached it and found that the bear
was frozen stiff IN block of ice He
took his axe and chopped piece off
the animal. Picking up portions he
found that it crumbled at his touch.
Similar caves, some large, others
small, have been discovered about
