Anticholera vaccination originated
about 10 years ago with DR.. Ferran,
Spanish physician. His vaccine of eight
drops Of a cholera culture mixed with
bile was used with many misfortunes
upon 25, 900 persons, but gave sufficient
encouragement to lead to Haffkine's ex.
periments, which have proved so sue
cessful in India. Haffkine employs
attenuated cholera bacilli, followed
few days later by virulent cultures.

dead cholera bacilli--killed by eitt,sr-

by Kolle, who gets the same effcaSs' by
simply using somewhat larger doses of
his less terrifying preventive. Compara-

the vaccinated individuals is now 200
times as potent in resisting cholera in
fection as that of the unvaccinated. As
evidence of the effectiveness Of modern
methods of dealing with cholera the
fact is mentioned that it has hno oov, :

A Roland For His oliver.

It is said that Professor John Stuart
Blackie often told ION himself this
anecdote, which seems to indicate that
personalities are not agreeable, even to
those who deserve criticism.
This genial old professor used to
form a very picturesque feature in the
Edinburgh streets. He was wiry old
patriarch, with handsome features and
hair falling in ringlets about his shoul-
ders. No one who had seen him could
possibly forget him.
One day he was accosted by very
dirty little bootblack with his "Shine
your boots, sir?"
The professor was impressed by the
dizziness Of the boys face.
II don't want shine, my lad. said
he. "but IL you'll go and wash your
face I'll give you sixpence.
"a RIGHT, SIR" was the lads reply.
Then he went over to neighboring
fountain and made his ablutions. Re-
turning, he held out his hands for the
money.
"well, my lad" said the professor.
"you have earned your sixpence. Here
it is"
II dinna want it, auld chap" return
ed the boy with a lordly air. "Ye can
keep 1t and get yer hair cut. "

BARNATO IN THE COMMUNE
How the Diamond Ring Saved the Bank
of France.

How the Diamond King Saved the Bank
of France.
A writer of stories about Barney
Barnato says, in the Philadelphia Bull
letin, that there is circumstantially
definite account of his presence in Paris
during the commune of 1871. In the
utter break up of all social fabric he
found his capacities of paying order.
For there is little doubt that his was
the craft that enabled the shrewder
communards to realize the money need
ed to supply the sinews Of war.
One day, during the gloom and stress
of the government siege, the president
of the Bank of France was confronted
by an unkempt mob. The demand was
explicit They wanted all the gold In
the banks vaults. The spokesman
fiourished bloody saber and the mob
accentuated the demand by all sorts Of
ferocious threats. IL was in the height
of this melee that man who had been
counseling the financial deputy Of the
commune rode up, adorned by red sash
and other insignia of the terrorists. He
made his way through the vociferous
throng and handed the governor of the
bank large envelope While the official
was reading 1t the besashed emissary
turned to the clamoring nomads and, in
tongue unknown to the officials and
probably to many of tho mob, addressed
them few sentences. A singular event
followed. A dozen of tho ringleaders at
once began haranguing the rioters. In
a few minutes every one Of them with
drew. The besashed parsonage remained
in consultation with the governor and
when IL was ended withdrew. An hour
later six covered wagons came to the
bank and were laden with bags such as
the bank always makes use of in trans
porting specie.
When Barnato appeared as the dia-
mond king in South Africa. score OF
the communards, who had fed from
France, were in exile in the region

killing of the hostages in La Roquette
He recognized Barnato az the emissary
sent by the commune to the Bank of
France. and the knowledge enabled him
to get in on the ground floor of the dia-
mond deal. The tale goes ON to tell that
Barnato, who figured as Felix Barnette,
had fallen desperately in love with q
figurante in the Folies Bergeres Just az
the war of 1870 broke out; that he had
fingered in Paris, became member OF

When our business was made known,
we were ushered into q handsomely

at desks, without trace of pens, ink
or paper or of anything in a literary
way except some new novels, together
with few packages of cigarettes, were
two gentlemen whose appearance made
a considerable impression ON me. They
were faultlessly dressed in deep black
(the duelist's color). Each had the rib
bon of the Legion in his buttonhole,
their long jet black mustaches were
waxed out to point as fine as a
