Process OF Death by Electricity.
According to Prof. j. Kratter, of
Graz, who has for some time been
performing experiments on the effect
Of electrical shocks on animal life,
death is most usually caused by sudden
cessation Of respiration and consequent
suffcation. During the suffocation the
heart continues in action. If the as
phyxia lasts more than a certain time,
about two minuets, the heart stops,
this being a secondary phenomenon.
Generally speaking, the animals used,
cats, dogs, rabbits and mice, were not
easily killed by 100000 vots alter
mating. The danger appears to lie In
the nervous system, and to decrease
with the amount of brain development.
Frequently death occurs by momentary
stoppage Of the movement of the heart,
but a slow cessation Of the hearts ac-
ton, such as has been observed in cases
of human death, was v observed.
In no Ease was any anatomical altera-
ton observable to which death might
be attributed, but there are sometimes
LESSONS, breaking of blood vessels, and
the diagnosis is rendered certain by the
peculiar burning at the position Of con-
tact, and by the escape of blood from
the c%apillaries, which indicates the path
taken by the current.-Philadelphia

Fishing Owls.

Did any one know that owls did a
right smart business in the fishing line
when they had a C nance? The Fish
Conn '~ssiorers Of New Hampshire
have discovered that owls have been
stripping the spawning saibling off the
beds il, their state. Naturally the fish
ing is all done at night ard the water
on the mid1lake spawning grounds be-
ing very low has given the owls the
chance which they have improved.
Quite likely the saibling expose some
portion Of their bodies above the wa
ter, and the noise they make in the
water attracts the night birds, and
every morning the spawn takers have
found evidence of their visits.-Forest

Hammered Iron Work.

The popularity Of black iron lamps
and lanterns for the piano, the study or
porch, has given impetus to the Ian
gushing art of working in hammered
iron. 1t is the highest type Of iron
work as well as the most beautiful. and
we are glad to see it revived. The
hammered iron work Of the middle
ages has been reverenced almost as
a departed art. The best of this work
is very expensive, but that has not
prevented the production of some mag
nificent examples. The opportunity for
the use of hammered iron work is large,
including gates, ratings, balconies, etc.,
and it would appear that once general
attention WIS directed to this species
Of artistic ornamentation the field of
it's application would be extensive

Among the hardest things which the
infant Prince Edward Of the royal
house Of England, the little son Of the
Duke Of York and heir expectant to
the throne. will have to straighten out
when he is older is his relationship to
his own father and mother. 1t consti-
tutes a problem such as is seldom found
outside of princely houses.
1t is certain. however, that he is the
third cousin of his father, and also the
sec ond cousin Of his mother. This
makes his relation to himself some
where between that of third and fourth
cousin.
He is. as it were, his own double
third cousin-a relationship which it
will doubtless take some time for him
to comprehend.
Both his father and mother are des-
cendents from George III. of England
George Ills son Adolphus, Duke OF
Cambridge, had a daughter Mary who
married the Duke of Teck and became
the mother of the Princess May, who
married the Duke of York; and the
Duke of York's father. the Prince OF
Wales, is the great-grandson of the
same King George III.
The young prince will have the right
to address either his mother, his father
OF himself as my royal cousin;' and
he may, perhaps, excuse any partially
fol his mother over his father by de
claring that she is a nearer relation tt
him than his father.
The princely families of Europe sup
ply many similar cases of tangled re
IL tionship, growing out Of the success
sive intermarriages of cousins in nearer
or remoter degrees.

An Ancient Warrior.

Coreans have associated with him q
guardianship of the graves, and one
of the commonest kinds of worship is
prayer and offering to this snake. To
this has been added a host Of other
spirits, and the guardian dragon which
they worship by dropping food into the
well which is his supposed retreat.
Judging from the accompanying picture
of the guardian dragon, he is an insa-
table kind of beast, who could eat any
thing. from lobster and milk, to Welsh
lrarebits. His head is well defined and
his body is indefinite.
In the guardianship of graves the
Coreans include weasels. pigs, and
unclean animals, Of every kind,
dividing off to each so many
days in the year and making a con.
slant ceremony.
With such a religion and such a
untry it is surprising that Corean art

DR.. PIERCE'S

Cures Ninefy-eight per cent. of all
cases of Consumption. I'm ali is

Although by many believed to be incura-

earlier stages, consumption is a durable
disease. Not every case, but a large per-
Ceufage of cases, and we believe, fully o3

bleedings from the lungs, severe lingering

ing tubercular 1%natter), great loss Of flesh
and extreme einaciation and weakness.
Do you doubt, that hundreds of such cases
reported to us as cured by Golden Med

dread and fatal disease? You need not take
instance, been so pronounced by the best
and most experienced home physicians,
who have no interest whatever III mis-

strongly prejudiced and advised against

but who nave been forced to col fess that
it surpasses, in curative power over this
fatal malady, all other medicines with
which they are acquainted. Nasty cod
liver oil and its filthy "emulsions and
mixtures, had been tried in nearly all these
cases and had either utterly failed to bene-

a short time. Extract of malt, wliskey,

But then art has no absolute standard,

points. Corean art was originally de-
rived from China, and it has the quaint

Lincoln's Joke on Seward.

On the 9th the First Corps, COM
handed by Gen. Reynolds was re-
viewed by the president OIL a beautiful
plain on the north of Potomac Creek,
about eight miles from Hooker's head
quarters. We rode thither in an ambu-
lance over a rough corduroy road; and,
as we passed over some of the more
difficult portions of the jolting way,
the ambulance driver who sat in front,
occasionally let fly a volley Of sup
pressed oaths at his wild team of six
mules. Finally Mr.. Lincoln, learning
forward, touched the man on the
shoulder, and said:
"EXcuse me, my friend, are you an
Episcopalian?"
The man greatly startled, looked
round and replied:
"No, Mr.. President; l am a Metho-
dist.
"Well," said Lincoln, II thought you
must be an E~piscopalian, because you
swear just like Gov. Seward, who is
a churchwarden." the driver swore no
