Proportion to the Dose.
Your notice of the discovery of
chloroform in 1S47 recalls curious
experience in my Cambridge under
graduate life. One evening in Jan
uary, 1851, l went into chemist S
shop and ordered some Photographic
chemicals to be sent to my rooms
hard by. l was lodging on the Pa
rade. Seeing an ounces bottle of
chloroform on the counter bought
it out of curiosity and took it away
with me, leaving the chemicals to
follow. In my own rooms, seated
in an armchair, put four drops on
my handkerchief, and carefully
placing the bottle on the table some
distance from me / shifted the hand
kerchief.
"a pleasant sensation and sing
ing in my ears was the only result.
So, shortly afterward, / counted out
eight drops and acted as before.
The next thing l remember is find

after having been unconscious p

out with the foXhounds, was greeted
with: Hello, doctor! So you raised
a man from the dead last night?'
You may well say that, was the re-
ply, for | had given up all hopes
II was very puzzled to account for
the effect of my carefully measured
dose. All l could gather from the
servant was that she brought me up
aparcel from the chemist, and seeing
me asleep tried to wake me; then,
finding l was dead, ran down into the
shop calling out, Mr.. M. is dead.
Two Trinity men were in the shop.
One went on 10 the 6 p. m. chapel,
telling every one of my sudden
death. The other, after a glance at
me, kindly called in DR.. G. Some
time afterward the mystery was
cleared up.

the day she left she made the follow.

The HelyetIau Ladies'.

The most celebrated warlike WON
en- among the ancients, apart from
the tabled amazons, were the Hell
veian ladies. Caesar praises highly
their military achievements. In more
than one instance the legions of Rome
turned their backs on the fair ones
of Switzerland. During the Cr,lOAdes
women often performed the most ro-
mantle and ciiivalrous deeds, dying
cheerfully by the sides of their lovers
and husbands. New York Journal

Brunswick Times Advertiser.
That the South has so long held
up under this process is simply be-
cause Of her immense crude re-,
source.
As our timber fields fade away, as
our virgin soil is wasted to the ne
cessity of commercial fertilizers, as
our mines reach deeper into the
bowels OF the earth, and each year
greater effort and expense reduces
the profit Of our industries, the cul-
mination of reckless waste becomes
more apparent.

These things are two palpable to
need further illustration, and yet
they are the methods of the south.
They are the things which reduce
our labor to the minimum of miser-
able existence and fill our streets
with idleness.
The question of large dividends is
not the supreme incentive to indus
trial enterprises. 1t is the earning
capacity Of the largest possible per
centagc of a community which gives
the impetus of success and money
making. The individual with a
single thousand dollars in cash in q
community where every one is earn
ing something more than bare ex.
istence has greater field tor money
making than the one who has ten
times as much in a bsgren held of
operation.
Under the present system of buy
ing everything away from home that
has an added value through the la
bors of others We are gradually
reaching the climax of commercial
cannibalism-preying upon ore an
other.
The same rule holds good to the
minute details of retail trade. Every
dollar OF profit placed in the hands
of merchant or workman of anoth-
er community takes that much from
the revenues of the city losing it.
II reduces the labor account of the
home, weakens the value of rent
property and lessons the tonnage OF
the home freight carriers, and scales
the earnings Of every enterprise Of
the town.
Mutual obligation is the philoso!
ply Of well-to do communities.
The man who reaps all that ne
can from field and returns moth

egotisu Of his selfish greed.
Trade at home, work for home,
and talk for home is both patriotic
and polite.

The design for the Vance Memorial

THE SENTINEL enterJains the opinion
that this amount will be forthcoming
at an early day. Friends and admirers
Of North Carolina's deceased Senator
land there are thousands of them all
over the country who desire to see his
name and memory honored, are re-
quested to send in their contributions
at once in order that the work may be
pushed to completion at once.
The committee met / q the office of
Principal Clewell yesterday afternoon
to select the design from a number Sc
cured by Principal Clewell during
his recent visit North. Members of
the committee present were: From
class of 1894, Misses Katie HaneS and
Margie Flake; Miss Emma Lehman,
senior class teacher; Miss Gertrude
Siewers, from Art Department.; Mrs.
d. 81. Starbuck, President of the
Alumni Association; Miss Clara Query
and Miss M. Bessent, of faculty; Bish-
op Rondthaler, of trustees; Maj. s. H.
Smith, of Winston; @. III. Fogle, of
Salem; R. E. Carmichael, of THE
SENTINEL, and Rev. J. n. Clew-
ell. After careful review, the
design described below was decided
upon:
DESCRIPTION OF THE WINDOW.
: The size ofthe window will be 3x9 feet
and will be made throughout of the
style beautiful Opal glass The pat
group of tall Easter lilies, with lilies
of the valley clustering at the base Of
the group. Over this dove appears
as if descending from the sky The
prevailing color OF this central portion
is blue, the lily's of course being
white. Below this beautiful central
portion is scroll on which will ap-
pear the words
SENATOR VANCE MEMORIAL,
PRESENTED BY
CLASS OF 1894.
Around the entire picture will be a
border of the richest design, the pre-
vailing color being Ruby red, and the
entire window will be set with bright
Jewels throughout. The window will
be rectangular, to conform to the
other windows in the chapel, but the
gothic design will be gracefully worked
in to embrace the lily pattern, the
dove and the scroll. This pattern
was selected by Mr.. and Mrs. Clewell
after an examination of perhaps one
hundred windows seen in various
churches, chapels and elsewhere, and
was unanimously selected by the COM
mittee yesterday from some II or 15
drawings submitted to them. The
pupils and our communities will
be doubtless much pleased with the
Memorial as it will be fine piece of
artistic work.
The window will be formally pre-
sented to the Academy at the next
annual commencement. 1t is quite
probable that Senator Ransom will be
invited to make the presentation ad
dress.

Hints to Housekeepers.

When you wish to use very dry
bread for any purpose, soak it in
cold milk or water instead of having
them hot. The hot fluids seem to
take the life out of dry bread and
renders it soggy;, the cold soaking
leaves it fiaky.
The merest dash of cinnamon in a
cup of chocolate after it is poured, is
said to add piquant and undistin-
guishable flavor.
Soft and flabby skin gains firmness
of texture by the use of cold water,
to which has been added a little COM
mon salt. Vinegar and spirits of
any kind used as a wash about twice
a week help to keep the skin firm.
Pals and tubs saturated with
glcyerine will not shrink.
A shovel of hot Goals held over
spotted yarnished furniture will take
out the spots.
To remove moth patches, wash
them with a solution of common
bicarbonate of soda and water sew
eral times during the day for two
days, or until the patches are re-
moved, which will usually be in forty
eight hours.
A tablespoonful of lime water to a
pitcher of milk is very beneficial.
After knives have been cleaned,
they may be brilliantly polished with
charcoal powder.

Single Standard of Morals.

from the ctaunton Post.
Young women and their negligent
parents are largely responsible for
the two standards of morals which
now prevail. Young women who
condemn and put beyond the pale of
pity the unfOrtuna te and the erring
of their own sex, with singular in
consistency and injustice receive with
every manifestation of favor the
impure of the other sex. Indeed,
men notorious for their excesses are
permitted TO enjoy the same-and it
sometimes seems, a greater-degree
of social popularity and distinction
than the pure. And even though
women are partially excusable by
reason of the fact that they are not
supposed to know the real character
of all their male acquaintances, their
parents have no such excuse, and
should see to it that their daughters
demand and secure a higher stand
ard of manhood for their associa-
tion. If young women and their
parents will but look to their duty in
this matter, the standard of man
hood viii be speedily elevated. The
responsibility is theirs, and it is USE
less to seek to evade or to escape it.
Let the gentler sex look with little
more forgiveness and pity upon the
frdilties OF their own sex, and bestow
a little less homage on the unworthy
of the other.

uplifted eyes, the bridesmaids looking
and reclining towards the bride and

behind the bridesmaids, stood with
bowed heads. The picture thus form

was sentenced Tuesday by Judge
Newman to eight years In the Ohio
penitentiary for counterfeiting. He
served term before for counterfeit
ing. He is an expert in making coins.
On his trial Tuesday he resented the
charge that he had made the coins
produced. They were the work of a
bungler, he said, and added that he
would be ashamed to turn out such a
poor job. Lawshe nas had an event
full career. Once when prisoner he
fitted up a whiskey still in his cell
and made corn whiskey there for
some time, using the corn bread
which was served to the prisoners.
At another time he escaped from jail

THE ATLANTA EXPOSITION.
The Argentine Republic Advised to
Make an Exhibit.

ATLANTA, Ga, Dec. 13.-Ohicial
notice has been received that DR..
Seeballoa, Minister of the Argentine
Republic to the United States, has
advised his Government to make an
exhibit at the exposition in Atlanta
next year. He has recommended an
Independent building for the Argen-
tine Republic, and is especially
pleased at the efforts Of the exposition
to establish closer trade relations be-
this country and South American re-
publics. The Argentine Republic has
within the past few days removed the
duty on lumber for the purpose speci-
ally OF allowing the soft pine and cy
press of the Southern States to 90 into
that country, it's own woods being all
of hard character and expensive to
handle. The material used at the
Chicago exposition by the Argentine
Republic is still at Philadelphia.
