that it may not have been part of the

When Smith had gotten this far in
telling me his adventures said to him
somewhat abruptly:
"The truth is, Smith, that you were
staggering around that district blind
drunk on an unknown quantity OF
wine you had imbibed at st. Goar,

and that my various falls were caused
by the inequalities in the surface of
the ground, for, if you know the dis
trict at all well, you must remember
that unmitigated mountainousness is
the most distinguished characteristic
OF that section of Germany"
Smith went on to give his reasons
for this conclusion, when 1 asked him

narrative and tell me into which par

long before he came in sight of the
castle of Ehrenburg, and as he was
not on a road at all, but following a
somewhat indefinite path, he began to
think he would have to sic ep out under
the stars at night. To add to the
difficulty the night was very dark.
Smith thinks it was nearly midnight
when he saw ahead of him, at the bot
tom of the valley, huge building,
brilliantly lighted from top to bottom.
He was much puzzled at this, for he
knew no structure of such size except
the castle of Eltz, and that was on the
other sid eof the river MoselIe, and
so far as he could reccllect, he had
not stumbled across the river without
noticing it, for although he was aware
that the Noselle ran low at times. he
had never heard of it being dry enough

DOLLAR OR SHILLING SIDE.

A Commercial Tradition Relating to
Opposite Sides of a Street.
For the purposes of retail business
the two sides of every thorOughfare
We're formerly thus divided: The left
hand side, going north, or the right
hand side, going south along any broad
street or avenue of New York city was
the dollar 'or more profitable side.
and the right-hand, going north. or the
left-hand. going east, was the shilling
side, devoted to less productive bust.
ness matters and depending chiefly
upon the patronage of persons of more
modest incomes and slender purses
In the early commercial life of New
York city the west side of Broadway
was considered the more desirable fol
retail business. The stores upon il
paid much larger rent than those OF
the side opposite, and not only was this
the case, but, as the New Workers. of a
generation ago remember, the west, OF
dollar side, was the more popular
for pedestrians, especially during the
promenade on fall afternoons. All
icOnOclaSt of mercantile customs and
traditions was the late A. T. Stewart
and it was his constant, avowed belief
that a rule of business or affairs tina,
had no other backing but that of usage
: OF precedent did not amount to much
and could be usually overridden to the
advantage of a pioneer against it. The
present Stewart building, at the corner
of Broadway and Chambers street, is
on what was the shilling side Of thai
thoroughfare, and when Mr.. Stewart
determined to move his dry goods eS
Enlistment up town he chose by pref.
erence the location at Broadway and
Tenth streets, also on the shilling side
and built there, contrary to the views
of his rivals in the dry goods business
But Mr.. Stewards departure from
the unwritten business rule of many
years did not abrogate in it the dry
goods business, and the preference fol
the dollar side and the prejudice
against the shilling side survived by
many years the use of shillings as a
measure of purchase in dry goods
stores. Little by little, however, the
once unwritten law of retail trade has
fallen into disuse, and now the right
hand side of the public thorougfare
in New York city devoted to store pur'
poses, if not quite as good as the left,
hand side of the same street, is, among
real estate men, considered to be near
ly as good.-New York Sun.

Smiths second story was, to me much
more wonderful than the first. I tried
to get from hin, an exact statement
Of the number of bottles of Rhine wine
he had drunk before the occurrence
he relates took place, but Smith is
somewhat haZy OF statistics at best,
and in this particular matter he is
unable to render me any assistance,
which seems a pity, for I look upon
that as one of the vital points in his
narrative.
He says he started from st. Goac 70
walk across the hills into the Ehren-
bergthal. He expected to walk down
this valley and ultimately arrive at
Brodenbach on the Moselle. The dis
lance is not great, being but twelve
miles as the crow flies, but Smith
started late in the afternoon, having
spent the day hilariously with his
new-found friends at st. Goar. The
way also is not well defined, and there
is a lack of finger boards. The first
part of the road is very steep, and
when one reaches the summit there is
such a confusion of paths that it is
easy to take the wrong direction. How
ever, Smith was not particular into
which MOselle valley he dropped, for
they all ultimately led to that river,
and there are plenty Of inns along it's
banks. He had chosen the Ehrenburg
valley as the object Of his tramp be-
cause he knew the keeper at the
Schloss Ehrenburg, the finest ruin on
the Moselle, and was we'll aware that
this man had in his cellar some excel

ments grateful to the tired traveller.
Smith hoped to reach the castle of
Ehrenburg before dark, and knew that,
temporarily sustained by the hospital
ity of the keeper of the ruins, he
would have no difficulty in walking the
remaining two Oh three miles to the
comfortable inn Of Frau Probst, in
Brodcnbach. facing the river.
Smith thinks he lost his way, and
thought so at the time. lie had no
difficulty in finding valley-that dis
trict is full of them. In fact, he fell
into one, a depth at what he now esti-
mates at fifty feet. He missed his
footing somehow, and the next thing
he knew he was part way into a very
considerable valley. He also has the

they were more susceptible to any
cause which affected them injurously.
The gravest side Of this question, how.
ever, is that the too early use OF to.
bacco harms the intellectual faculties
also. In a class divided into four sec
tons it was discovered that the high
est section was composed almost en-
t1rely Of smokers. Such demonstra-
lions Of the mental and physical eff
fects Of tobacco by undergraduates
would seem to justify the effort now
being made by some college authori-
ties to check its use. The newspapers
record now and then the death or in
sanity OF some boy from the use Of
cigarettes. But no account is taken
OF the stunning of the minds and
bodies Of the great mass Of young
lads from the same cause.
The Standard Of the American
Physique.
w. G. Anderson, in an article on
physical training at the universities,
points out that the official provision
for the physical culture Of the young
men at the highest seats of learning
In the country is lamentably made
quate. In no college, and in only one
or two schools in the country, does
there exist to-day systematic course
IN physical training in which full
physical measurements are made twice
each year, including a special examina-
ton of the heart lungs and eyes, upon
which examination as basis special
class work is conducted in the gymna-
SUM and out Of doors, and proper in
dlvldual attention is given to every
student Even at Harvard and Yale a
cursory investigation of the facts show
that possibly 2 per cent of the whole
number of students receive attention
because they excel in rowing, possibly
. per cent because they can play base
pail we'll enough to be valuable to their
college, and not far from the same per-
centage because they have the muscle,

class foot ball eleven. 1t is the other
unfortunate 80 per cent whose physi.
cal conditions the authorities ought to
investigate, and to whom they sohuld
supply, where deficiencies exist. the
necessary training to make them good.
How imperative is the need for rails
Ing the standard of the national
physique is shown in the results of the
physical examination of 364 picked
youngsters preparatory to gymnasium
practice at Yale last October. Of this
number 81 were troubled with hearts

COIOring by ElectroIysis.

Some coloring matters hitherto pro-
duced only by strictly chemical pro-
cesses can now be manufactured cleo
trolytically, and it seems likely that
the near future will see a very large
number of such substances being made
by electro-chemical means. Toward
the end of last year it was discovered
that certain orange coloring matters
can be obtained by electricity, and
now this is being done on a CONNER
cial scale at Basic, in Switzerland. BY
reducing the yellow alkaline condensa-
ton products Of nitrotoluene sulphonic
acid in an alkaline solution by means
of the electric current the yellow col.
oring matters are converted into or
ange dye stuffs. After filtering and
drying, the material forms a dark
brown powder easily soluble in water,
with a yellowish red color, and in con-
ce-ztrated sulphuric acid with dark
violet blue color. It dyes unmordanted
line bath, fast to air, chlorine, and

A curious apparatus for making soda
water at home has been shown in
London. Liquid carbonic acid gas is
compressed at sixty atmospheres into
small steel pear-shaped cartridges
about fve-eighths of an inch in diane

is placed in mouthpiece attached to

OF the cartridge, or "gas DROP" is
punctured, and the gas escapes into the
bottle, dissolving in the water. Twelve
of the drops weigh three ounces and
500 of them can be packed in a cubic
foot. A traveller in the center Of Africa
can thus supply himself with aerated
water without adding greatly to his

only effect is said to be the softening.
