A COOL AND CLEVER GIRL.
Who in = Ladylike Way Managed to
Mortify Two Men.

Who in . Ladylike Way Managed to
Mortify Two Men.
A girl I know told me a little story
the other day, says writer. She is
quite an ordinary girl, well-behaved
enough If people let her alone, and
making no claim to equality with any
one except under extreme aggravation.
She is a busy person and therefore.
when going home to dinner, only
reached the station in time for the ex-
act train which would insure punctual-
ity. 1t was late and it was crowded.
To waste time finding a seat would be
to be left behind. She got into the
carriage which stopped opposite her,
and, finding it full, stood quietly by the
door.
Two men on opposite sides of the car
riage looked at her in wrath and the
one said (you can imagine the air of
self-praise): "I never give up my seat
to a lady"
Neither do l." said the other. cts
unreasonable that they should expect
it."
They started a sort of duet on the
subject, enlarging by turns and in uni
son on their frmness in keeping their
seats, the selfishness of women in get
ting into full carriages-they had paid
for their seats, why should they give
them up-and much more to the same
effect, all directed with black looks at
my friend by the door.
She heard, unconcerned. The opin-
ions of the speakers did not interest
her at all; there was no reason why she
should trouble to answer them. All she
wanted was to be home in time for din
ner. When some one in the carriage
alighted at a station she took the seat
vacated and would have thought no
more of the matter had not the two men
still continued to talk at her with
wearisome iteration. After few more
stations were passed another passen-
ger got out, and a woman, getting in,
asked my friend a quite unnecessary
question. The two men looked up;
they could not help being interested in
anything the woman they had been
| talking at 50 long might say.
She smiled sadly and shook her head.
The question was repeated. OF course,
three or four people in the carriage
answered it at once, but my friend
shook her head more sadly still and
pointed to her ears.
"Ah, deaf! Poor thingw said the
questioner.
And the blank absurd faces of those
two men were a sight to see. My
| friend said their humiliation would
| have made her repent her little fraud
had it not been for the hearty and
wholesome delight it afforded the rest
of the passengers. The shout of laugh
ter that rose at the expense of those
two men was almost enough to deafen
any one in sober earnest.

BODIES AS MEDICINE.
The Chinese Have a Firm Belief in
Their Efficacy.

The Chinese Have a Firm Belief in
Their Efficacy.
The belief the Chinese have in the
remedial qualities of substances form
ing part Of the human body seems to
be irradicable. Thinking that Euro
peans still held the same silly ideas led
as much as anything else to the Tien-
Tsin massacres of twenty-five years
ago. Prehistoric man drank from a hui
man skull, believing that the uncanny
goblet had a certain potency.
Not so long ago the skull of a sui
eide was used in Caithness as a drink
ing cup for the cure of epilepsy. Cases
have even been cited where supersti-
tious people within the last thirty
years have dug up bodies so as to pos
sess themselves of skulls for the same
purpose. AS late as 1878 in the official
pharmacopoeia of the London College
of Physicians mention is made of the
skull "of a man who had died vio-
lent DEATH" For centuries in the past,
for the manufacture of certain quack
nostrums, notably an ointment, ground
skulls were used. The medical books
of Nuremberg of 200 years ago always
cite mumia,-or the embaImed flesh of
mummies-as a sovereign cure for GER
tain diseases. The Egyptian mummy
was a specific for one malady, the Ten
eriffe mummy for another.
Excluding all the other strange sub
stances employed in early medicine,
there is a trace of cannibalism in the
use of these mummied substances. It
has been shown that cannibalism does
not arise in all cases from hunger, but
that to eat human flesh is a religious
rite and favored by the gods. In some
remote manner it has something to do
with sacrifice. Describing supersti-
lions the fact is cited that to-day Irish
peasants use skulls to hold water in I'M
| der the belief that the water thus be-
| comes curative.

For more than u century it has been
the proud boast of Americans that in
all questions affecting the foreign re-
lations of the United States domestic
partisanship was dropped and all men
became simple Americans, ready to
fight, If need bs, for the maintenance
of American principles. Several
things have happened within the last
three years to cause foreigners to be-
lieve that boast without actual founda-
tion, but the foreigners were deceived.
The administration went contrary to
public sentiment in certain phases of
its foreign policy. and public opinion
condemned, instead of sustaining it.
But to-day the boast holds good. and
100000 fighting men, regardless
Of their domestic political opinions,
stand ready to back up President
Cleveland's notice to Great Britain and
the world that the Monroe doctrine
cannot be violated without first whip
ping the United States.

institution is left entirely with the
citizens of Flagstaff. According to the
resolutions, the Summer School of
Science comes to us for the first year.
then il sufficient inducements are held

social and intellectual status it will
