A Useful Drug.

Professor Burt &. Wilder Of Cor.
nell, suggests that chloroiorm should
be used freely TO relieve the victims
of railroad accidents. With the axe,
bar and saw at the end Of every pas
senger car, should be a tin box Of chlo-
roform, the mouth closed with soft
metal, easily cut with n knife, the
whole being placed in a box lined with
absorbant cotton. In disaster one
or two tablespoonluls upon handker-
chief held near the nostrils would les
sen sensibility very soon. An other
wise inaccessible sufferer could be sup
piled by means Of cane, umbrella, or
fence rail. For years, says Professor
Wilder, have carried fiat two-ounce
vial Of cblorolorm in hip-pocket. IL
has not yet been needed IN a railway
WI eek, but IL has often served az
speedy counter-irritant for the relief
of inward pain. 1t is ready to dash
in the face of an assailant, biped or
quadruped, and has been emptied re-
peatedly to put out Of misery some
homeless cat. Finally, emptied upon
their nostrils, it has induced several fe-
rocious dogs to Ostand not upon the order
of their going, but go at once. AZ a
canine pacifcator, chloroform is prompt
and potent. and emergencies might
arise when it could proftably replace
the dangerous club in the treatment
Of human recalcitrants.

"Vote, vote. Who's elected?' All
the boys and girls sit in one room to-

Who votes for me?" All the boys
run for the door, and the one who gets
there first goes out in the hall and
kisses the candidate. It's a fine game
We have Republicans and Democrats,

The cowboy was telling some OF his
thrilling experiences, including several
incidental lynchings.
"Those lynchings are dreadful, ex-

Cant git along without them, SAID
the cowboy.
"But they are wrong.
"Great civilizers, though.
THE wrong man suffers sometimes.
"Not very often.
Didn't you ever help hang the
wrong one?'
Never but once in all my expert
ence."
Dreadful, dreadful No repara-
tion could be made in such case. -
The cowboy looked at the listener
with contempt.
"You don It know us people, he said,
"Why, we fixed that up to the salts
faction of everybody"
How could you?"
"Well, we apologized to the wldder
the next morning and a month later

done such thing, and so soon, toe" "
The cowboy became reflective.

Yes. I'm to blame for it, of course,

That's what Mr.. Bowser was going
to say, of course, but he didn't say IT,
He rushed into his hat and overcast

and make him die 20 different deaths.
Two hours later he saunteIed in and
got out his old razor and began pairing
off corn, and as he made no allusion
to the affair Mrs. Bowser was diplomat

Strange Sound on the Red Sea.

A singular phenomenon occurs on
the borders of the Red Sea at a place
called Nakous, where the intermittent
underground sounds have been heard
for an unknown number Of centuries.
1t il situated at about half miles
distance from the shore, whence long
reach Of sands ascends rapidly TO a
height Of almost 300 feet. This reach
is eighty feet wide and resembles an
amphitheater, being rallied in by low
rocks. The sounds coming up from
the ground at this place recur at in
teryals Of about an hour They at
first resemble a low murmur, but be-
fore long there il heard loud knock
ing, somewhat like the strokes Of
bell, and which, at the end Of five
minutes, become so strong as 10 agtate
the sand. The explanation Of this Gu
rious phenomenon given by the Arabs
IL that there is a convent under the
ground, and these are the sounds Of
the bell which the monks ring for
prayers. So they call it NakOus, which
means bell. The Arabs affirm that
the noise 20 fnghtens their camels
when they hear it as to render them
furious. Scientists attribute the sounds
to suppressed volcanic action-proba-
bly, to the bubbling Of gas or vapors
underground.

WHAT DOES 1T MATTER.

II matters little where was born,
Or IL my parents were rich or poor;
Whether they shrank at the cold world s
scorn,
Or walked in the pride OF wealth secure.
But whether live an honest man,
And hold my integrity firm in my clutch
| tell you, brother, plain as am,
1t matters much
1t matters little how long stay
In a world OF sorrow, sin and care
Whether in youth l am called away
Or live till my bones ana pate are bare.
But whether do the best l can
To soften the weight OF adversity's touch
On the faded cheek of my fellow man,
Itmaiters much!
1t matters little where be my grave.
Or on the land or on the sea,
BY purling brook or meath stormy wave;
1t matters little or nausht TO me.
But whether the Angel of Death comes down
And marks my brow with his loving touch,
Itmatters muchi
