Poisoning by Timed Food.

Some light is thrown by The Lancet
upon the mysterious cases of poisoning
by timed food which from time to time
are reported. They are believed to be
due to neglect of the caution against
eating timed foods that have been ex-
posed to the air for some time after Boz
ing opened The exact manner in which
poisonous substances, technically known
as "ptomaines, are generated so rapid.
" is not known with certainty, but tho
fact that they are produced in sufficient
quantity to cause very grave symptoms
of poisoning have been brought out in a
multitude of instances. In one well
known case the first half of the contents
of tin Of lobster was consumed with
no Ill effect, but the rest few days aft
erward proved extremely poisonous. 1t
is suggested that as safeguard manu-
facturers might label the tins with some
such notice as 1.-THE contents of this tin
are perfectly wholesome when eaten
fresh from the tin and afford good
food, sut the public is advised not to
expos, the contents for any length of
time TO the injurious influences Of the
atmosphere. The Lancet writer even
goes so far as to suggest that some such
warning might be insisted on by the
legislature. London News.

PURITANICAl LAWS.
How They Round Up Delinquent Debtor
In Cultured Boston.

In Cultured Boston.
Just wait till l catch him in Bos-
ton. Then III make him come TO the
center" remarked an angry man the
other day while roasting theatrical
manager who owed him a few hundred
dollars for services rendered. Itold him
that supposed he would then clap the
debtor into the Charles Street Jail.
That's just what will do if ever
catch him there, you bet. And then
the mad actor explained how easy il
was TO get even with people of that sort
in the Hub. No matter what the debt,
nor where or how it was contracted, ali
one has TO do is TO enter a complaint
and that settles it. If one who owes is
averse to notoriety, he'll hardly take
the poor debtors oath, which releases
him for a certain number Of years, but
does not wipe out his obligations, but
will linger in the bastile until he can
interest his friends or realize on his col
lateral and settle.

When time is old and hath forgot itself,
When water drops have worn the streets Of

agony, did l turn and stare blankly at

convict prison was enforced here and
with the same iron rigor. Strict silence
was the rule, along with the absolute
exclusion Of newspapers and all news of
the outside world. The rules forbid any
delicacy or books being furnished by

longing to be united to the spiritual

attended O funeral the other day
where there was a lovely flower piece
with the figures "3O"'i in the center.
The deceased had been familiar all his
life with that signal. having been con-
pected with telegraph or newspaper
business for nearly 80 years, and yet l
doubt IL ever he or any one who con-
tributed to the flower piece knew or
dreamed how 80 came to mean any
thing, especially finis, or the end.
As part in telegraph history Will
explain how this signal, which has
come to mean so much, had its origin.
Like a great many other expressions, 1t
was started accidentally, as itwere. In
the infancy of the telegraph business
dispatches were sent paid or collect,
many of them abbreviated in telegraph
ing, and all newspaper dispatches were
not only abbreviated, but sent collect.
There were no news agencies then, as
now, and papers had friends in oil the
towns, who were authorized to send
them dispatches to be called for.
Every beginner in the art OF teleg-
raphy was given book of abbrevia-
tions and signals, which he had 10 com
NIT to memory and practice till he be-
came expert in their use. Among those
signals that Of 80 was found, and 1t
meant "collect pay at the other end. y
Whether a news dispatch or common
business message, if not prepaid, the
signal 80 was attached. As all press
dispatches were paid for where received,
they all had 30 at the end. So when
news agencies began their work the sig
nal was retained, for they We're still
paid for where received.
This signal has come in these days &c
be universal finis TO all press DIS
patches, private, special and general
and secondary meaning, or perhaps
better, n legendary meaning attaches
itself as 1.-THE end" and is proper and
beautiful expression of the finis OF

me among friends, far beyond chance of

knowledge Of my presence in the rebel
camp would cause all thought Of pursuit

When daylight came, stood and
looked around Across the inlet, 20
miles away, could see only dark masses
of green with no sign of life. To the
north tho land was hilly, with houses
here and there in the distance and signs
of animal life. cautiously searched the
shore for mile in the hope of finding
q boat to cross to the other shore Of the
inlet, but none was i'll sight.
About 0 o'clock l saw smoke off at

l did not like the appearance of this

steamed out to sea- Continuing my

watched. Soon l heard the sound Of
voices, and then detail Of armed men

cautious glances up and down the road,
I slipped quietly across and crept for
two hours through the jungle. Making
my way to the side of the bay, l saw

There were white barracks and wharf
