Editor Medill's Discovery.

Editor Joseph Medilf, of the Chi
oago Tribune, is confident that he has
made an important discovery which
will enable a prudent man to live one
hundred and fifty years., ~. =
Mr. Medill has found that diet is
not the principal thing to be consid-
cred. His studies have convinced
him that lime is the main obstruction
ist Of life. The water we drink fills
the system with lime. Get the right
sort of water, free from this elem 1,
and the problem Of longevity is solved.
Last year Mr. Medill began drink
ing distilled water and snow water.
His. rheumatism is cured, his diges-
tion is improved and he. has practi-
cally renewed his youth. He says:
The virtue Of this water is not in its
mineral properties, but in their abb
sence, Its absolute purity, in particu-
.ular It's. .freedom from lime. That is
the substance, says he, that gets into
the capillaries Of the joints and stops
the lubricating process that keeps the
joints timber. It obstructs the capil-
larry cells.of the hair, SO that the pig
ments can no longer find their way
through, and it becomes colorless-
white. Little particles of lime get
into the cells of the stomach, OF the
bladder and kidneys and cause every
form of indigestion and Bright's dis
ease; they get into the heart and
weaken it's action. In fact, the whole
process Of growing old and wearing
out is due to a superabundance of this
white mineral substance lining up,
till finally man. lies down a brittle
mummy o hundred years before his
time.
The old journalist is III his seventy
first year, but he feels that he has Sc
cured q new. lease Of life. He spent
years travelling over Europe, visiting
all the celebrated water cures. In
this country he tried the hot springs,
of Arkansas. In fact, be tried every
known remedy for rheumatism, indi-
gestion, general debility and heart
disease, but he found no relief until
he commenced using water entirely
free from lime.
There is one good thing about Mr..
Medill's theory. 1t will hurt nobody
to test it. The man who drinks pure
water with no lime in it will not be
running any risk, and while he may
not reach the one-hundred-and-ffty-
year limit, he will probably prolong
his life.

A Model Wife.

The best-natured woman In the
world resides in the city of Austin,
Texas. She has been married num-
Der of years to q man named Peterby,
who is one of the most disagreeable,
ouarrelsome men outside of the Texas
Legislature. And yet Mr.. and Mrs.
Peterby have never had quarrel, for
the simple reason that it is impossible
to make her angry. lie has scowled
at her and occasionally waited chair
at her, just to see if she wouldn't
get angry, but he has suffered dis
appointment in each and every in
stance.
Peterby had been Dragging to his
friends about what a good-natured
wife he has, and Gilhooly offered to
bet $50 that if Peterby were to 60
home, raise fuss and pull The table
cloth full of dishes off the table she
would show signs of temper. He had
tried that with his wife once be-
fore, but he never repeated the expert
ment.
Peterby said he did not want to rob
friend of his. money, but he knew he
could win. At last he made the bet.
The friend was to watch the proceed
ings through window. Peterby came
home apparently fighting drunk. She
saw him coming. went out to the gate,
| opened it, kissed him and assisted his
tottering steps into the house. He
sat down hard in the middle of the
floor and howled out:
"Confound your ugly picture what
did you pull That chair from under me
forP"
'I hope you did not hurt yourself"
she said, smiling kindly. II was to
blame for it; am so awkward. But
I'll try and rot do it again if you will
forgive me this time," and she helped
him to his feet, although she had
nothing whatever to do with his fall
ing. BE then sat on the sofa, and,
sliding off on the floor, abused her
like a pickpocket for lifting up the
other end Of the sofa. She said she
was sorry, and finally led him to the
supper table. he threw plate at
her, but she lodged it, and asked if
he would have tea or coffee. Then
the brute seized the tahIecloth and
sat down on the floor and pulled the
dishes and everything over him in one
grand crash. Some women might
have lost their temper; but not so
with Mrs. Peterby. She did not blub-
Der like a child; she did not even
sulk or pout. With pleasant smile
she said:
"Well, Georgia, this is new idea:
| We have been married ten years, and
never yet eaten our supper on the
floor. Won't it be funl Just like
those picnics we used to 90 to before
we were married. and then the an
gelic woman deliberately sat down on
the floor alongside of the wretch, ar
ranged the dishes and fixed him up
nice supper. This broke him up. He
owned up that he was only fooling
her, and offered to give her $50 to get
herself a new dress with. She took
the money and bought him a new
snit Of clothes and a box Of cigars
witt it. Heaven will have to be re-
paired and whitewashed before it is
fit for that kind Of a woman.-1am-

"A German psychologist, who
devoted himself with great patience
to the counting Of the hairs on differ
ent heads to ascertain the average
number on a human head, found that,
taking four heads Of hair of equal
weight, the number of hairs, according
to color, was as follows Red, 80, 600 /;
black, LOB, 1000; brown, 100000; fair,
10000.
1t happened in Sunday school.
The subject under discussion was
Solomon and his wisdom. A little
girl was asked to tell the story Of Sol
omon and women who disputed the
possession of a child. She timidly
rose up and answered: "Solomon was
a very wise man. One day two wo-
men went to him quarreling about a
baby. One woman said, "This is my
child, and the other woman said, No,
this is my child But Solomon spok e
up and said, No, no, ladies, do not
quarrel. Give me my sword, and I
will make twins of him, so each of you
can have one >"

aHaerspt. gatelligeHfer,
Snakes In the Human Blood.

What would you think if the family
physician should call and after care
fully examining your tongue and feel
ing your pulse, calmly inform you
that "you have snakes in your
blood ?" You may laugh at the abb
surdity of such a notion and Of the
improbability of ever having such
startling words whispered in your ear
by your medical adviser, yet tits not
at all unlikely that even at this mo-
ment you have thousand of wigglers
chasing each other up and down your
veins. The most important discover,
les concerning snakes in the blood
have been made during the last nine
months, principally in Europe. DR.;
G. w. Stiles of the Bureau of Animal
Industry, Washington, D. c., is also
studying these minute creatures. The
blood snake is small white parasite,
which effects an entrance into the
veins of man, as well as animals,
through the medium Of drinking wa
ter. The male snake is only about
four-Gfths Of an inch in length and he
constantly keeps himself in the shape
Of a bow or new moon, the female
occupying miniature groove on the
males body. -.
The male is not larger in diameter
than a section of No. 40 spool cotton
the female much smaller, of course,
but the damage few hundred pairs OF
such parasites may work in an ;anl-
mails system is truly astonishing.
These blood reptiles have been known
for centuries, but down to 1893, when
Prof. Sonsino, Of Pisa, Italy, began to
make their life history and various
transformations scientific study, but
little was known regarding them. Our
learned Italian professor says that the
eggs Of the blood snake, or the larvae
themselves, are found in all kinds OF
water, especially in Africa and in the
Orient. After the eggs hatch the
snake attaches itself to microscopic
and harmless animalcule. This latter,
snake and all, is taken into the stom'
ach in the water. The sudden trans
formation kills the little animalcule
but fattens the blood snake, which
now leaves the stomach or. intestineE
and begins its search for blood vessels
/ Once in the veins they breed with
amazing rapidity and soon deyour the
life-giving elements Of the sanguine
fluid. At first the! patient is said tt
have 'spoor blood" +" next he has rheu
matism. or some other disease, accom-
panied with excruciating pains. This
goes on from bad to worse until the
Door victim succumbs to real case Of
snakes. The. scientists believe that
the H6ery serpent Of the Exodus wa'
nothing more nor less than q malig
nant firm Of snakes in the blood.
