An hneodote of Perier.

Once during the schooldays of the
president Of the French republic his pro-
fessor in geography asked him, "Perier,
give us the exact position and indicate
the latitude of the Gambler group.
Casimir- Perier crossed his arms tightly
upon his chest, looking very perplexed.
One of his neighbors whispered to him
the wrong answer, whereupon the pro-
fessor gave him the exact position of
this little group, which belongs to the
more important French establishment
of Tahiti, and after short pause, and
with little point Of irony, said: You
ought to know that, Perier, because it
is thanks to your grandfather that
France acquired the ascendancyin these
parts of tho world. 1t was through his
efforts and enheGties that the dusl1y
queen of these islands was induced to
come TO France, and the men of my
generation still remember the comical
songs which celebrated the event" Pc
rior blushcd considerably, but, holding
his head still higher, answered the pro
fessor with his quick and peculiar die
ton, 81 will most certainly go over
this lesson again and try to be more
proficient at tho next lecture; but, 30
far as the deeds Of my grandfather go,
they are so numerous that am not old
enough yet to know thon all. San

on Her Notes.

Ot Alktf -NOAtN.

to nave been cl5hor lost or destroyed,
amounting to II, $50, 600 odd, every
shilling of which was clear Iront to the
baAi.
IN many Instances, however, it is pos
dl,o TO recover the amount OF the note
from the bank in full Notice has to be
given to the bank of the note supposed
TO Ge lost or stolen, together with
small fee and full narrative as to how
the loss occurred. The note is then
'sto ped '-thGt is, if the document
shor.d be presented for payment, tho
person stopping" the note is informed
when and to whom it is paid. If pre-
sentod, after having been stopped,
by any suspicious looking person, and
not through banker, one of the detect
ives always in attendance at the bank
would be called to question the person
as to how and when the note came into
his or her pc session. 1t is quite a mis-
taken idea that stopped payment" of a
bank note has the effect supposed by
very many people 1t simply means that
the Bank of England carefully keeps q
lookout for the note which has been
stopped, and, though it cannot refuse
to pay such note Immediately on its be-
ing presented, a notification would at
once be made to the person who stopped
it, and the bank would give all the as
sistan3e III its power to ehable the loser
to recover the amount.
In the case of bank note having
been, say, burned by mistake, if the
number is known and notice sent to the
Bank of England twill pay the amount
after an interval Of five years from the
date OF lodging notice of destruction
should no ono have PRESCRIBED the note
for paymeat III the meantime. The bank
in such cases also insists OH guarantee
being given by banker or two house
holders that it shall be repaid in the
event of the document turning up and
being again rendered for payment. 1t is
not at all an unusual circumstance for
a mutilated note to be presented for
payment, burned perhaps half through,
with marks Of burning on the fringes.
Nor is the damage always accidental.
The men who indulge i'll the luxury Of
lighting their pipes with bank note
are not always, as some may think,
millionaires or recognized lunatics of

RESTING THE STOMACH.
AN IMPORTANT DISCOVERY IN THE

A New Way of Treating Dyspepsia.

We are all familiar with artificial teeth and

attention OF the medical profession. The
result is that since January lot they have re-

First, IL affords more prompt relief In dys

To avoid tho entire devastation OF
Rhode Island by smallpox (?) the
General Assembly, by advice Of the
medical profession, ignoring Its ale
glance To the Constitution OF the
United States, true statistics against
vaccination, science, reason, and com
little, innocent child, before it shalt
be allowed To go TO the public schools,
shall have morbid blood poison.
from sores on diseased persons or dis
eased animals, put directly into the
pure blood OF its healthy body, with
out any means Of knowing the malig-
nancy or effect Of the poison before IL
enters the system, and for which
there IL no antid0te; n poison that
produces real disease. And the
vacci nators say that the operation
must be repeated several times during
life, to prevent the disease from
being eliminated. Thus every citizen
must carry poisonous disease i'm his
body all his life and bequeath il To
his children and his children's chill
dren.
Notwithstanding, vaccination neither
prevents nor mitigates smallpox I'm
any case, but on the contrary makes
the vaccinated more susceptible TO
that disease. In a vast number OF
cases il fills the system with the
most fatal aud loathsomc diseases of
man and beast-cancers, syphilis,
tuberculosis, leprosy, scrofula, ETC.
and is an unmitigated curse. Over
forty new diseases have appeared
since vaccination. Vaccination was
established by fraud. Edward Jen-
ner, the pretended discOverer, who
obtained Sl50,000fro the British Par
lament, was an outrageous swindler,
and its evils having been concealed
and denied by the profession, makes
ii an enormous fraud. Evidently it
is the most absurd and perniciOus
scheme that ever entered the brain of
q human being. 1t has caused, di-
rectly and Indirectly, q vast number
of horrible deaths and lifelong dis
eases.
After understanding vaccination,
no intelligent, unbiased person can
believe i'm it, and it is great mystery
how any one can be so blinded as to
believe in it; nothing could be SO
perfectly foolish and pernicious. No
one has right to have q child
pois oned; it is crime to allow it, and
it is high time that parents, guardians
and employers should realize the
enormity of the practice. All chill
dren are allowed to go to paro-
chial and private schools, churches,
Sunday schools, lectures, concerts,
theaters, railroad cars, steamboats,,
circuses and t II er promiscuous
crowds without being vaccinated.
The citizens of the State, who shall
have got their eyes open upon this
subject must see that no man here
after shall be elected to the General
Assembly who will not pledge him
self to vote to repeal that tyrannical
law.

ENTHUSIASM IS BAD FORM.

Electricians Are More Conservative
in Their Writings.
There seems to be q tendency among
writer's OF reputation on electrical sub.
jects to adopt a much more conser.
vatiye course than formerly followed
and this is nowhere more noticeable
than in the consideration Of the uSe
OF electricity in transportation, which
is in striking contrast to the policy pur
sued in the early days Of the trolley,
when it was deemed necessary to claim
everything in sight. Those who re,
member the extrayagant claims thai
accompanied the opening Of the Rich
m0nd line in February, 1888, will LOOK
with amazement upon the following
paragraph with which Frank ].
Sprague closes an article entitled viii
Trunk Lines Be Operated by
Electricity?' in the July number of tbs
Engineering Maganzine':
Let us lay aside, then, some Of the
visionary prophecies concerning
electric railways Perhaps no one has
been more actively identified with
them than myself; no Cne, think, has
greater faith in the future of the

vclCpment Of a field of its own, With
recognized limitations, but Of vast pos
sibilities. 1t will fill that field to the
practiv;'. l?lsion Of all other methods
Of transnl: O.. g energy; it will replace
the locomotive on many suburban and
branch lines; it will operate almost all
street railway systems and elevated
and underground roads; it will prove
a valuable auxiliary to trunk sustelns:
but it has not sounded the death knell
Of the locomotive any more than the
stationary steam engine. Each has its
own legitimate field which will play
its proper part in the needs of all
civilization"
The change in tone which is here SO
strikingly illustrated is certainly enc.
ouraging and the tendency which il
marks should be cultivated, rs its
general adoption will be commended
by all thoughtful men. DR.. Duncan
and Lieut.. Sprague are not one whit
less positive in the great future Of the
electric motor in railway work because
they are temperate in their utterances
and do not allow their enthusiasm in
it's advocacy to outweigh their cooler
judgment as engineers and experts

Power of Water in Mining.

The effect Of the hydraulic motor,
which is now used for the purpose Of
removing masses of earth Well-nigh
passes belief. A steam of water issu-
ing from pipe six inches in diameter
with a fall behind it Of 375 feet, will
carry away a solid rock weighing a
ton or more, to distance of 80 or 100
feet. The velocity of the stream is
terrific. and the column of water pro-
iected is SO solid that if a crowbar or
other heavy object be thrust against it
the impinging object will be hurled a
cOnsidera BILE distance.
By this stream of water a man
would be instantly killed if he came
into contact with it, even at 4 distance
of 2O0 feet. At POO feet from the noz-
Zle a siX-inch stream, with 375 feet
fall, projected momentarily against
the trunk of a tree, will, in a second,
dcnude it Of the heaviest bark as
clcanly as if it had been cut with an
AK. Whenever such stream is turned

to surprise, frighten and overwhelm
