Let those who are hauated with sus-

have good reason to know that they are
suffering, take courage from n story told
by the late Sir Andrew Clark in the course
of clinical lecture at the London hospital.

man, was about to be married. His in

"You see, you have no money, sir. You

the physicians said to him, I'VE cannot ac-

clergyman. "Oh, we would rather not say"

live six monthsf" "oh, yes" r lied the
medical men. you may do that lie went
home, and the match was broken off. He
wrote to the committee. saying that as he
had "A mortal disease of the heart and could
not live for six months he withdrew his APP
plication for rooms wherein to dwell with
his wife. On the receipt of this letter the
committee deliberated and said, I'VE must
superannuate him, poor fellow, aud as he
has but six months to live we will let him
have his full pay" Accordingly he was
superannuated upon his full pay. and upon
this superanuuty he lived for more than
50 years.-London News.

A Race of Giant Cannibals.

Unlikely as it may seem to some who
read these lines, it is IA fact, nevertheless,
that there is an island in the gulf of Cali
fornia, not more than 60 miles from the
Mexican mainland, which is inhabited by
the remnants of Il race of giant cannibals.
This startling discovery was made by a west
coast naturalist early in 1891, and has since
been confirmed both by United States and
Mexican explorers. Mr.. Mcnamara, the
scientist referred TO- has II photograph OF
one OF the men found by him on the island,

Gordon of Queens territory about
the Boer possessions except to the
eastward where they are cut of
from the sea by strip of Portu-
guese soil. For years the British
have sought to overcome the
Beers, twice driving them north
ward where they founded States
which the British promptly an
nexed. Later when the refugees
made another stand and formed the
Transvaal republic the same in
vaders came again, but were
driven out, the Beers having
reached the last ditch where they
had determined to fight. After the
close of the war it was

THE THEATER.

While some prejudice doubtless
survives iu Honolulu against the
thCater, 1t is plain that many people
of he best instincts are beginning
to seek a good play just as they
seek a good book and for the same
rca sons. As a rule the play is a
boob explained and delineated, and
it follows that if the book is good
the play is likely to be so; and that
the one becomes a useful inter
prefer of the other To be sure
there are some bad plays, but this
does not prove that a man ought to
stop going to the theater any more
than the existence of bad books is
an argument against his reading.
1t is his business to exercise a dis
eliminating choice in both respects,
and if he does 50 he will be the
better for his resulting experiences
Apropos of this subject the novel
suggestion has come to us that il
one must know plays let him read
them rather than see them amid
the 'pernicious surroundings of a
play house. TO this we must say
that if such surroundings existed
there might be merit i'll the plea
but the usual high-class theatre, in
its accommodations, decorations
and other adjuncts, is as respecta-
bic as a drawingroom and as
decorous, for example, as Talmage's
church. In Roundhead times
when the Puritan prejudice against
the play house had its birth, per
haps the environments were differ
ent; but the theatre has shared the
general progress Of the world and
the 'pernicious surroundings are
in "reminiscences only. As for read
ing plays, it is fair to ask why not
read law book rather than seek An
Interpretation Of it from the bar and
bench' Why employ a minister to
explain the Gospel when it is down
IN black and white? Why ever
hold the mirror up to nature? The
ACTOR, like the judge and preacher,
makes plain what the layman might
no perceive or understand. 1t is
