DroD NIcIxeIs For Tickets.

Absentminded people drop many things besides tickets in the boxes pre- sided over by the ticket choppers at the elevated stations. For man to drop a nickel in is of common occurrence. Often larger coins, and occasionally bills, are deposited. In order to get such things back the forgetful person has to apply the next day at the main office of the company. He cannot even travel on the strength of his overlarge contribution, but must buy a ticket with one of the nickels he has left.
 The money dropped in the ticket choppers box gets mangled in the chop ping process and will not always pass current afterward A bill is likely to get so badly mutilated that it cannot be patched together.
 Other things besides money occasion ally find their way into the ticket chop per's box with equally damaging re- sults New V~-'r Sym

Raw Owmkn--

One of the most eminent of French physicians, the late Dujardin- Beaumetz, urged for years before his death that persons of light or feeble digestion should not eat raw oysters, because they contain Q chemical which excites fer mentation as soon as it comes in contact with the gastric juice. Being an easy carrier of germs, too, the oyster oom- municates very readily any pathogenic microbe which it may contain to the in- testinal canal, and trouble begins at once. Recent investigations corroborate the opinion of the French scientist and may lead to the banishment of the hith. erto esteemed raw oyster from the list of Convalescent dainties. It is already an established fact that its nutritive qualities have been much overrated. - New York Post.
