Music and Health.

Music, If we ere to believe ancient
historians, has produced some very ex-
traordinary effects. The fexcaness OF
Achilles was aliayed by playing on sie
harp; Damon, with the same instru.
ment, quieted wild and drunken youths,
and Asclepiades IN similar manner
brought back sediti01s multitudes to
temper and reason. The corybaDtes and
eEeninate priests Of Cybele were incit-
cd by music TO cut their own flesh. Pin

Died suddenly.

Madame Marie Boquel, an aged
French woman, who lived in St.
Charles street, died Suddenly yester-
day afternoon, from stroke of
paralysis. Sho was found at an
early hour in the morning by the
neighbors, lying insensible in front
of her house. They carried her in
and sent for City Physician F. j.
COmbe, but medical aid was OF no
avail. The old lady never recover
ed consciousness breathing her last
about five p. N. Little Is known of
deceased. except that she came here
in the early sixties. Her husband,
who was formerly a clerk in the
custom house, died several years
ago. She leaves son, aged about
fifty years, who lives somewhere
out in the county. She supported
herself by selling homemade can
dies. The funeral took place at
three o'clock this afternoon, the
body being taken to the Catholic
church for the burial rites. The
old lady had no means, and no rela-
tives to provide for the interment,
but kind hearted persons saw that
she was decently lai1 awaY.

a Democratic King.

The king Of Sweden arranges his time
to the best advantage. After an early
breakfast with the queen he gives sudi-
ence to public officials and Swedish,
Norwegian and also foreign ministers
IS well as reviewing and inspecting
troops, and so forth. Friday Is occupied
by a council meeting, and Tuesday
morning is given to the public. AS ia
ther OF his people, he sees even the
poorest peasant and most unknown be-
ing in his kingdom who wishes to speak
with him and gives audience alone, no
third person being present. The ever
ngs and indeed the best part Of tbs
night King Oscar gives up to ME liter
airy pursuits. His poems and roman ces
are now well known for their artistic
excellence.

requires but few moments 20 write it,
but it often means much It meaus ev-
erything sometimes to the person re-
ceiving 1t. It means a renewed faith in
human nature IN some cases A word
Of thanks Is never lost, never wasted.
If it sometimes seems 20 be lost upon
the person to whom is is directed, It's
expression has no5 been lost upon some
one else who has heard It. It is certain
~ not lost upon ourselves. The most Of
us are quick enough to thank some one
who does Us great service. But the
small courtesy, just as great as the
large service IN reality, we overlook. Il
doesn't seem worth while to give thanks
for small things. Ard yet what would
We be today and where would some Of
Us be but for the small courtesies Of
life? They are what make life worth
living.
"It is ell very we'll to have the last
Thursday OF each November set apart
as a cay Of Thanksgiving. but it would
be far better # a great many of us car
ried tho spirit Of The day into ali the
other days. Perhaps if we did so we
might have more mercies to be thank
fUl for on Thanksgiving day. Do not
let the spirit of thanks stop with night
fall on Thanksgiving day. Let Us ex-
tend it 70 all the other days Of the year,
TO the people whose lives touch ours
When We receive favor at the hands
Of any ore, 10 matter how small it may
be, let Us say the words, Thank you.
II they should be written, let Us write
them. LIST rs not delay them, bat take
advantage Of the Instant when our heart
is touched. Let there be more Thank
yous' said by everybody-thousands OF
them. And the world will be better,
brighter and happier place to live IL
because Of them.
