STOCKS.

The stock nlaIket to-day developed
considerab bic frregularity and mixed trad
ing. 1t was strong III spots and weak
i'll others, but it was a noticeable fact
that the better class railroad stocks stood
out from the rest as the conspicuously
strong features of the list. Further sub
stantial advances were recorded in Oma-
ha. c. c. c., and st. Louis, Northwest
and in Nickle Plate securities. There
was IA strong attempt to turn the mar
ket, and bears raided it ON indications
of realization sales and the assembly of
Congress, but they were only successful
in depressing the price of Sugar and Rub
Der. A savage attack was made upon
the latter, accompanied by usual of re-

Value Of the Egg In Sickness.

The value of egg albumen as food in
certain diseased conditions is pointed
ont by DR.. g. Z. Boynton. When fever
is present and appetite is nil, he says,
when we want an aseptic article of
diet. the white of an egg raw serves
both as food and medicine. The way to
give it is to drain off the albumen from
an opening about half an inch in diam
eter ut the small end Of the egg, the
yolk remaining inside the she'll Add a
little salt to this and direct the patient
to swallow it. Repeat every hour or
two. In typhoid fever this mode of feed
ing materially helps us in carrying ont
an antiseptic plan of treatment. Fur
thermore, the albumen to a certain ex-
tent may antidote the toxines of the
disease. Patients may at first rebel at
the idea Of eating raw" egg, but the
quickness with which it goes down
without the yolk proves it to be less
disagreeable than they supposed. and
they are very ready to take q second
dose.-Pacific Medical Journal

Largest Brick Building.

Every few know it, but it is fact, 1"
explained prominent builder to re-
porter, THAT the pension office building
is the largest brick building in the
world. 1t has been subjected to much
criticism, but it can stand it, for as
time passes along there are many things
seen about it that escaped notice when
it was newer. In all there are over TO-
600, 900 bricks in the building. General
Meigs took liberties with bricks that no
other architect had ever attempted. He
not only used bricks exclusively for the
building, but he used them in construct
ing the stairs throughout the building.
In the matter of stair building bricks
have often been used for the riser, but
the step has always been of iron, wood.
slate or stone. In the pension office both
riser and step are of brick. AS brick
building, therefore, pure and simple, it
is unique in construction outside of the
fact that it is the largest exclusively
brick building in the world. Wash

Cropping Them Prevents the Animals
from Hearing Well.
Any one who has heard the mega
phone must have wondered at the ex-
traordinary power of increasing sound
that is produced by form. and would
like to call attention to one point in
connection with cutting dogs ears that
l do not remember to have seen men,
toned anywhere - that is, from an
acoustic standpoint:
have lately purchased small York
shire terrier. imported from England
only few months ago Its ears were
clipped in England after what the seller
of the dog declared to be 1.-THE very lat
est style
The ears were first clipped and then
stiffened up with three effects on the
dog:
First.-That the buzz Of bee or fiy
causes him to retreat under cover of
safety.
Second. That he ducks his head
when about to be patted, a sure sign of
the length of time the pain of the oper-
alton must have lasted.
Third.-(An effect had not expect
ed. } That he has absolutely no idea of
the direction of sound.
In the ears of a mastiff dog any one
who observes the she'll like form of the
ear opening may easily imagine the I'M
mense power of such a trrmpetlike in
strument to increase the volume of
sound. A change in the acoustical az
rangement of the flap of the ear would
necessarily entirely puzzle and bewilder
the owner as to the direction Of sound,
and this one point on ear cutting would
seem of itself to condemn the practice.

AN ANECOOTE OF LINCOLN.
He Measured Height with n Miner In .
Pennsylvania Town.

In the course of an article in St
Nicholas Mary Lillian Herr relates the
following characteristic anecdote of
Lincoln:
Once while on his way to Washing
ton as president the train stopped lit.
tie time in the town Of Allegheny, Pa.
Around the station a great crowd gath
cred, eager to see the new president.
Trey shouted and cheered until Lincoln
had to appear OIL the rear platform of
his car. He bowed and smiled, but the
crowd was SO noisy he did not try to
speak to them.
Very near to the platform stood q
miner, wearing red shirt and blue
overalls and carrying a dinner pail.
Like the rest, he had stopped hoping to
see Mr.. Lincoln. The workman was al
most giant i'll size and lowered head
and shoulders above the crowd.
No doubt he had heard that Lincoln
also was very tall, and, encouraged by
tie friendly face, the workman sudden.
ly waved his bare arm above his head
and called out:
"Hi, there. Abe Lincoln! I'm taller
than you-yes, a sight tallerP'
This loud speech silenced the crowd
by its holiness, and laugh arose. But
Mr.. Lincoln, leaning forward with q
good humored smile, said quietly:
MY man, doubt tin fact, I'm
sure am the taller. However. come up
and let's measure.
The crowd made way and the workman
climbed to the platform and stood ba6 X
to back with the president elect. Each
put up hand to see whose head over
topped. Evidently Mr.. Lincoln was the
victor, for with smile of satisfaction
he turned and offered his hand to his
beaten rival, saying cordially:
II thought you were mistaken and
was right. but l wished to be sure and
to have you satisfied. However, we are
friends anyway, aren't WEI"
Grasping the outstretched hand in q
vigorous grip the workman replied:
Eyes. Abe Lincoln - as long as
live"
