THE MICROSCOPE.

A careful microscopical
examination and chemical
analysis of the urine, is a
valuable aid in determining
the nature of many chronic
diseases, particularly those
of the nervous system,
blood, liver, kidneys, and
bladder. These aids make
it possible to treat such dis
eases successfully at a dis
tance, without personal ex-
animation of the patient.
Thus Bright's Disease of the
Kidneys, Inflammation of
the Bladder, Gravel, and
other Diseases of the Uri-

An odd Cure For raintinr.

In The Law Times some interesting
stories are told Of the late Baron Parke,
afterward Lord Wensleydale. His love
of the law is illustrated by the anecdote
of his apologising to hostess for his
late arrival at party on the ground
that he could not tear himself away
from "a beautiful demurrer. - His pas
sion for fresh air was such that on buy
ing a handsomely furnished house his
first order, it is said, was that all the
bedposts should be sawed down and the
next that all the bed curtains should be
burned. at Exeter he insisted on venti-
lation in wholesale way which wrought
havoc with counsel and juries.
The best story of Baron Parke is per-
haps that which tells how once when
summoned to advise the lords he was
seized with fainting fit in the middle
of his argument. Various remedies were
applied without avail At last happy
thought occurred to one of his brethren,
who well lnew his peculiar tempera-
ment. He rushed into the library, seized
a large mustyy volume of old statutes,
rushed back hnd held it to the nostrils
of the patient. The effect was marvel
ous He at once opened his eyes, gave
them slight rub and in few seconds
was as well as ever.

Of clothes and a shirt which had evil

that he could remove them more easily

IT MAKES THE HEART eRow FoNDgR

1t was in the early summer when my love and
first parted.
She the seaside sought and left me in the city
broken hearted.

kissed shore to wander.
But her last words gave me comfort. Absence

How loved the little letters that from time to

As l read, it seemed that they a momentary
breeze lent me,
While she wrote of picnics, bathing, yachting
trips, then bade me ponder
Well the truth Of that old saying, absence
makes the heart grow fonder."
Fewer still were now her letters, and she wrote,

expostulated-mildly- my wayward,
witching Lizzie.
Once more came the same old answer-any 9TH
er seemed beyond her
Don't you know, you stupid Willie, Absence

One more letter yet she sent me, while she at
the seaside tarried,

that she was married.

why Should Pictureo Not BE Passed
Around just Like Books Are?
The other day heard an excellent no
ton propounded with regard to works of
art. 1t was the establishment of cir
culating picture gallery, which should
occupy the same relation with regard to
paintings as Nude does in respect Of
books. OF course the subscription
would be higher, as the number of sub
scribers would be limited. But the
pictures would be changed every month,
30 that man need never be bored by
the eternal sameness of tho walls.
A story is teM of q man who dined op-
posite to fine work by Sir Joshua Rey,
nolds for so many years that it at last
had to be moved, for it irritated him to
such an extent that he threatened to hurl
decanter of port wine at it. The new
society would effegtually obviate any
such annoyance. All the works would
be for sale, so any subscriber taking a
fancy to a particular picture might OBJ
tain the price from the secretary and on
payment thereof could become it's pos
SCISSOR.
The advantage of this system, especial
ly in the present depressed state of the
fine art market, is obvious, and it would
also bo benefit to the buyers, because
they would discover after the trial of a
month whether they really liked a pic
ture or not.
The terms of the subscription would
of course be in proportion to the style of
pictures supplied. Of course if you ex-
pected to have works by Sir Joshua
Reynolds, George Romney and Sir John
Everett Millais the payment would be
very much more costly than if you only
required series of prints. But the sub.
scriptions should be so regulated that il
would bring the circulating picture gal
lery within the reach of all.-London

KISSING IN COURT.
Polish Women Show Their Gratitude to
Lawyer, Judge and Jury.

Polish Women Show Their Gratitude to
Lawyer. Judge and Jury.
Men running from women wishing to
kiss them agitated the county court at
Long Island City the other day. Judge
Garretson was on the bench. A jury
had just announced a verdict of mot
guilty" in the case of Anna Wonzowlas-
ka, pretty Polish girl 16 years old,
charged with criminal offense.
The verdict caused commotion among
a number of Polish women in the rear of
the courtroom. They rushed into the
open space reserved for lawyers and fell
upon Counselor Merrill, who defended
the girl, and assailed him with fervent
kisses. Each kiss was loud, and the
counselor became red in the face.
The jurymen smiled, but their turn
was coming. Before they realized what
was going to happen, the women made
an assault upon the jury box and grab
bed the members of the jury around
their necks and imprinted kisses on their
cheeks and hands. The men struggled,
but the chairs prevented their escape un-
til all but the foreman had received an
affectionate embrace. Foreman Arm
strong ran for the door. 1t was short,
sharp race, but the foreman won.
Judge Garretson frowned from the
bench. He was too surprised to act un-
til it was nearly all over. He was re-
covering his composure when the women
started for him. The judge was saved
by the interference of the court officer,
who succeeded in getting the women to
leave the courtroom. The earnestness
of the women had such an effect on the
spectators present that they made up a
purse of 500 for the girl. She LETT the
court light of heart.-New York Times.

what was inside the case, as it is very
seldom they get a chance to watch the

The most remarkable thing about it
was to see how gradually the lungs were
