no hesitation IN recommending DR.. King $

marvellous in the case OF my wife. While

The prolonged roll of thunder is read
lily explained by comparison with a vol
ley fired along a line Of troops. Suppose
troops to be drawn up on a line i'll such
numbers as to extend for a mile and or
dered by a signal that all could see to fire
at once. One standing at the end of the
line would hear the report of the mus
ket nearest him instantly. He would
hear the others successfully. Thus a re-
port $50 feet away would come to him
in half q second, and he would not hear
the last report for five Oh six seconds
after the gun had been fired. This would
produce a sort Of roll, which would
gradually increase in intensity. If the
listener stood exactly midway between
the two ends Of the line, the reports
from both ends would reach him at
once, and the sound would be but half
as long in reaching him a if he stood
ut one extremity. II the soldiers formed
u circle, there would be one sharp ex-
plosion. Flashes of lightning may be
considered MS representing three lines of
troops along which the explosions oc-
cur at the same time. Consider the va
riety of distance and position of the lis
tener, and we account for the variety Of
sound in thunder. In mountainous re-
gions the rolling is augmented by ever
berations or echoes. Boston Traveller.

A Realistic Erect.

At the final rehearsal of Mozart's
opera. don Giovanni, -" the composer
was dissatisfied with the efforts of the
young lady to whom the part of Zerlina
was assigned. Mrlina is frightened at
Don Giovanni's too pronounced love-
making and cries for assistance behind
the scenes. Mozart was unable to infuse
sufficient force into the poor girls
screams, until at last, losing all pa
tionce, he clambered from the conduct
or's desk OH TO the boards. AT that peri
cd a few tallow candles dimly glim-
mered among the desks of the must
clans, but over the stage and the rest
of the house almost utter darkness
reigned. Mozart's sudden appearance
on the stage was therefore not suspected
by poor Zerlina, who. at the moment
when she ought to have uttered the cry,
received from the composer "a sharp
pinch ON the arm, emitting i'll oonse-
qucuec n Shrek WHICH caused ltm 10
eSclaim; "AGHirahlo! llin3you scr IN

Nervous Strain OF Railway Work.
There is reason to believe that at all
times there are men Oh the line who are
working very near to their breaking
strain. We may in regard to this
ton three well known instances which
at the least show the tension under
which work is often carried on. A sta
ton master, seeing q man run over on
the line, himself fell down dead upon
the platform. Here was a shock which
permanently made his heart stand still ;
but how many times had not that mans
heart stood still before? We may feel
perfectly certain that if the major shock
could kill, the minor daily recurring
shocks of a railway life must have
greatly damaged a heart so under the
influence of the nervous system.
Two trains collided at q junction. 1t
was either the fault Of the drivers or of
the rails, certainly not Of the signal
man. The signals were right; yet when
the box was entered the ~signalman was
found to have gone mad, and had to be
taken to an asylum. where he remained
for long. He was broken utterly by the
horror Of the dilemma; but what shall
we say about the smaller dilemmas
which every hour Of his working life he
had to solve? Did they not also have an
effect. although a lesser one, upon his
brain?
A few years ago it vas found that
the sickness rate among the signalmen
of certain lines was becoming excessive,
and it was determined to do away with
the system of leaving to one man the
whole responsibility Of taking charge of
a signal box. At great expense every
box along the line was supplied with
two men. Great evils were prophesied /;
it was thought the men would talk, aud
lark, and neglect their duties. This did
not happen. but the sickness stopped.
Under the shared responsibility they no
longer broke down.-British Medical
