Hard luck stories.

Hard luck stories.
1t is funny how so many persons Will
persist In telling hard luck stories to their
supposed friends, who, while they listen,
60 away with feeling OF disgust, to think
you have the audacity to burden them
with your woes when they have enough
OF their own. Besides 1t doesn't pay to let
any one know you are in hard luck. AS
quick as they DO they commence to reveal
the refrigerator side of their nature, and
they put you down with the many who
lack the essential quality of getting
bank account no matter how deserving
you may be or how hard you try.

Does the world owe you anything?

Does the world owe you anything?
There are persons who will contend that
the world owes them living, and this,
too, whether the world is any better of for
their living on it, or whether they strive
to make the world their debtor. There
ought to be law passed and
zealously enforced that every able
bodied man should earn his
bread by labor of some kind,
or be compelled to go without. There are
plenty of imbeciles and unfortunates who
have become incapacitated for labor that
the world, so to speak, has to take care OF.
Instead of the world owing the people
referred to living, they owe the world
something for being allowed TO exist and
to be partaker of its manifold blessings.

According To the New York Herald a

Canal commission. Inevitable delay and
Il further and more thorough investiga-

feasibility of any canal across Nicaragua
can be decided upon. The report is at
such variance with the numerous rumors
and predictions which have from time to
time been published concerning it that it
will cause great surprise and disappoint-
ment among those who have hoped for a
generally favorable report, and who have.
therefore. placed credence in these ru-
mors. which usually stated Ion the high
est authority" that the commission fa-
vored the route proposed by the COM
pany and placed the cost of the canal at
about $11O.O0,000.
The report points out that it is neither
practicable nor advisable To attempt the

Mysteries of Chemistry.

Morphia suspends the activity of the
nerve centerS. But how? What chem
lcal or molecular change takes place
In the tissues? How is il that the slight
est change in the composition Of the
morphia molecule radically alters its
effect? The physician cannot tell. The
salts of potassium and of sodium are
almost exactly similar. Yet minute
quantity of the former injected into u
vein, will paralyze the heart and de-
stroy life, while the latter may be turn
ed into the circulation wholesale with
no bad result Why Is it7 Why Is so
simple a substance as prussic acid so
deadly Il poison? A thousand of such
questions may be asked. None of them
can yet be answered We know that
these things do thus and so. How they
do it we do not know; but until we do
medicine will scarcely become an ex-
act science. That we shall one day at
tain such knowledge Is confidently TO
be expected. That must be the work
of chemistry; and when we remember
that science Of chemistry is scarcely
more than q century old, and when we
consider the bewildering scope and i'm
portance of its achievements in that
century, it is surely not too much to
hope great things from its future labors.
