ACCIDENTAL DEATHS.
Caused by Carelessness,

The majority of people die sooner than
they should Evidence of this fact is grow
ing daily. Waring SAYS: Disease is not a
consequence of life; it is due to unnatural
conditions of living-neglect, abuse, want.
DR.. Stephen Smith, on the same subject,
Man is born to health and long life dis
case is unnatural death, except from old
age, is accidental, and both are preventable
by human agencies" This is almost nvari-
ably true of death resulting from heat dis
ease. Careless over-exertion. intemrerate
use Of tea, coffee, tobacco, alcoholic or other
stimulants are generally the causes OF this
difficulty, and indifference to its progress re-
suits in sudden death, or long sickness end
ing in death. By the newspapers it can lie
seen that many prominent and hundreds OF
persons in private life die from heart dis
ease every day.
If you have any of the following synlp-
toms: shortness OF breath, palpitation ire @
uar pulse, faintiug and smothering spells,
pain in shoulder, side, or arm, swollen
ankles, etc, begin treatment Immediately for
heart disease If you delay, the consequences
may be serious.

to leave the Institute till we know that

BATHS BY FORCE.


AmusinE FnshlOo In Which Patients At AIx.
les Bains Are Treated.
From the time of the Romans, the |
baths of AiX-les- Bains have been the
most renowned Of all the thermal
springs in Europe for the cure of rheu.
matte Affections; but it is only within
the last twenty years that they have
been frcquented by English people to
any great extent. The recent repeated
visits of Queen Victoria to this little |
town, however, and the benefit which |
she and her companion, the Princess
Beatrice, have derived from the per-
scribed course of treatment. have now
made its name familiar to all readers.
One of the characteristic features in
connection with the baths at Aix-les.
Bains is the manner in which the
patients are conducted to and from the
Establishment"
The newly arrived visitor has written
down his or her name in the office Of
admission, and has received in return
a ticket, on which the hour for the
daily bath is written down. We will
suppose the patient TO be an elderly
matron as full of the insular prejudices
as of the rheumatic pains which have
been the cause of her visit to AK. She
is informed that she is to stay quietly
In bed the next morning, and that she
will be attended to in due course.
She wonders vaguely what is about
to happen and imagines many
things; but never, for one
moment, anything approaching that
which really does take place. A
knock comes to the bedroom door. the
handle is turned and two sturdy port
ers enter the room, approach the bed,
and while the matron is still gasping
with horror and astonishment, lay
forcible hands upon her, envelop her
in blankets and carry her out into the
passage, where they place her in the
chaisc-a- -porteurs, sort of sedan chair,
covered over like Venetian gondola,
and hung around with curtains, which
effcctually conceal the figure Of its oc-
cupant.
What the good lady suffers as she is
borne down the staircase of the hotel
and through the streets OF the little
town can be better imagined than de-
scribed; but her best wisdom is to rec
oncile herself to the process as soon as
possible, for it is bound to be repeated
every time that she goes to and from
the establishment.
The progress of the chaises-a-porteurs
through the streets is great source Of
fun to that lucky portion of the visit
ors whose object is amusement rather
than cure. Despite the enveloping cur
tains the identity Of the patient is often
betrayed by the additional wrappings
which are carried by the maid or
secheusc, and it is common occur
renee to see party of young fellows
following the progress of chair and
making merry at the expense of its oc-
cupant--N. y. World.

HUMAN SACRIFICES.
Russian ZealOts Submit to Death at the
Hands OF Friends.

Russian ZealOts submit to Death at tho
Hands OF Friends.
II is probably known to few people
that the practice Of sacrificing human
lives under certain conditions still ex-
lists in parts of the empire of Russia.
The government and the orthodox
church have attempted in vain to stop
the inhuman practice, but up to the
present time they have been unsuccess-
full. Revelations regarding the custom
were made in recent issues Of the Ga
zcttc Of Yakootsk, Siberia. Itprevails
among sect known as Tshukshen. not
far from that city. Old people beyond
the Biblical limit as to age, and sick
ones, tired of life, offer themselves as
the sacrifices. When Tshukshen de.
cides to "offer himself up he sends
word to all his relatives, friends and
neighbors, who then visit him and try
to persuade him to change his inten.
tions.
But prayers, upbraidings, threats are
useless in such a case, and the fanatic
prepares for his end. The friends and
relatives leave his house and return in
ten to fifteen days, bringing the death
candidate white clothing and several
weapons, with which he is supposed to
defend himself in the other world
against evil spirits and shoot reindeer.
After completing his death toilet the
candidate takes his place in corner Of
his house or hut. About him gather
his relatives, who offer him the choice
of three instruments of death, a knife,
n spear and rope. If he chooses the
knife. two friends hold his arms while
third plungcs the blade into his
breast. Practically the same thing is
done If he decides to die by the spear.
When he prefers the rope, two Of those
present place it about his neck and
stranglc him to death. A cut is then
made in the breast to let the blood
flow out. All those present sprinkle
their faces and hands with the blood,
believing that it will preserve them
from evil and bring them fortune.
The body, after this ceremony, is
placed on sled, which is drawn by "A
reindeer, to the cremation hill" near
the village. The neck of the animal Is
cut at once upon arrival at the place.
The body is stripped of clothing, which
is then cut in small pieces and placed
on the altar with the dead man or
woman. During the cremation the
"mourners' utter prayers to the
spirits, begging them to watch over
those mortals still left on earth. This
custom has been followed by the sect
for centuries. Y. Advertiser.
