Some of the facts recently brought to
light on the philosophy of bathing are rs
interesting as they are important, and spe-
cial mention may be made of the investi-
cations in this line by NJ. Wertheimer
Of Paris and communicated by him to the
public. He shows that "A sensation of cold
on the skin acts on the circulation of the
lower part of the trunk-that is to say.
on the veins-.and also on the brain, in the
same way as II mechanical or electrical
stimulus of the sensitive nerves of the
skin.
This observation, it is declared, affords
an explanation of the fact that sudden
immersion of the body in cold water after
"A meal and while the process of digestion
is going OF may be attended with danger
At such a time the abdominal system is
the seat of intense physiological conges-
ton and the accumulation of blood in ii is
suddenly thrown back toward the nervous
centers, and the consequence may be dis
order resulting in death.-Phladelph

Lord Macaulay on one occasion repeated
to himself the whole Of Paradise Lost
while crossing the Irish channel.

it encountered, both good and bad, nor ever

Origin of Attorney

Lewis G. Wunder, who delights in spend

ties, gives this version Of what he has as
certained about the word attorney"
In the time of our Saxon ancestors the
freemen i'll every shire met twice n year
under the presidency Of the shire reeve, or
sheriff, and this meeting was called the
ghcrih's torn.
BY degrees the freemen declined giving
their personal Attendance, and n freeman
who did attend carried with him the prox-
les of such of his friends as could not APP
pear. lie who actually went to the sher-
ifs torn was said, according to the old
Saxon, 10 20 ''at the torn" und hence
came the word attorney, which signihed
one who went to the torn for others, car
rying with him power to act or vote for
those who employed him

Semmes sent IN officer below to learn how
long his ship would float. The answer
was 10 minutes. Within one hour from
the time of the firing of the first shell Of
the Alabama her flag was lowered forever,
Semmes gave the order to his men, "Save
who can" Many of them. both sound
and wounded, jumped into the water. The
Kcarsarge picked up some 20 wounded
men.
Semmes sent his master $ mate. an Eng
lishman named Fullam, to the Kearsarge
to ask for assistance. Winslow asked him
the direct question whether Semmes had
surrendered The answer was "Ees. -
Then Winslow permitted Fullam to return
to the Alabama to help save her crew. At
the same time he signaled to tho captain
of an English Yacht. Deerhound which was
on the scene, giving him permission to go
to the rescue of the crew of the Alabama,
who were in the water. After being taken
on board of the Dcerhound, Semmes and
his officers escaped.
1t was the mcrest accident that Captain
Ninslow was in command of the kear-

ON the Mississippi in 1862, whero he re-
ceived an accidental wound. Upon his re
covery he was given command of the wood

ship and there was enough of glory i'll it

How Grant Was Held up.

"I'll mover forget how old Bile Oliver,
who kept tho tollga;c at Washington, on
the old Wheeling pike, held up General
Grant for toll, " said Washington county
man. Bile WIS annoyed great doal by
tho college boys who drove over the pike.
Thoy worked upon his crcdnllty promis-
ing 10 pay toll ON their way baok. Mnny
nickel has boen lost TO the old tollkccpcr,
for he was n kind hearted follow aud often
IN the face q better judgment rumltted tbs
toll until they returned. But the boys,
like that letter never came They took
another route home, thus Guiding old Bile.
Upon onc Of Grants visits TO Washington
during his administration q young Mr..
Smith, who was then In college, took him
out QUO day for n drive. AS they cnme
near tho tollgate on the Wheeling pike old
Bio caught sight OF them lie went out
Of his house, took hold OF the rope and
pulled tho pole down, obstrucilng the road

said: Look here, Bic, We want 10 40 on
You see, I've General Grant with mo hero.
Bic looked up with snrdonlc smilc. Tic
had just begun 10 see through the tricks
Of the college boys and was not going to
allow himself 10 bc glllcd any longer. So
he replied: ] don't give darn II you have
General Grant with you. You'll have 10
pay toll, or you cam I get along here. Then
he added In most sarcastic way with a
leer General Grant, You must take lne
for q fool' Really persisted young
Smith, this is General Grant But iEjc
got angry ct his apparent impudence and
said angrily, Grant or no Grant, you llay
toll. Seeing that ho was adamnnt Gen
eral Grant put his hand down into his
pocket, and after tossing him a coin drove
ON, laughing at the incident. He often re-
lated tho incident aftcrward, and It seemed
TO amuse him greatly. -Pittsburg Dis
