uate of Cornell, in the Science and Lit
erature. Teachers desiring to pursue
Psychology will find ample opportunity

Unexpected Demonstration.

A certain physician had large Toep-
ler-Holtz machine which gave a spark
like young streak of lightning. His
wife was much interested in it, and
watched the doctor manipulate it until
she fancied herself master of the appa-
ratus. One day party of friends call
ed when the doctor was out, and the
good wife seized the opportunity of
paralyzing them with her knowledge of
science. She was a dignified woman of
portly presence, and after leading them
into the office she began her explana-
ton with all the impressiveness of a
lecturer. She spoke briefly of the pre-
liminary manipulation of the machine.
And then" she said. laying her hand
upon one connection. ethe electricity
goes from here to here whereupon an
angry white spark leaped out from the
brass ball indicated with a report like
a horse pistol and smote her upon the
extended finger, causing her to sit upon
the floor with a violence that shook the
window panes. The guests stood around
in expectant attitudes, looking at their
fallen hostess in pardonable surprise.
Only for a moment did that capable
woman leave them in doubt. There,
said she, in the most matter -of-fact
manner, as. though events had simply
followed the usual course. you see how
it works. Now let's go into the gar
den and look at the chrysanthemulns.

reduction in price compared with the
cost of the English make. He says that
it Is conceded by the English mechane
les that possibly the Americans can
build at less cost, but they deny en-
phatically that the American machines
are as good as the English make, espe-
eially in the qualities of strength and
durability, weight for weight.
But let us suppose the AmericansIoco-
motives for the Midland Road to prove
entirely satisfactory; to be as SER
viceable, swift, strong and durable as
the engines of English shops, is it not
fair to conclude that orders will con-
tinue to come to the United States?
And is it not reasonable, to expect that
such orders will exercise a decided in
fiuence upon other lines of American
production for the English market?
Concerning the claim of the English
mechanics, that we do not. build as SER
viceable locomotives in, America as are
produced in England, Mr. Boyle says:
One need not be mechanical expert
to observe that. the average English
locomotive does not haul nearly as
heavy load as the average American
locomotive. Frequently, two engines
are used over here for a load which
one American locomotive would haul
with ease

DEATH OF STEPHEN J.. FIELD.


The death of the venerable Stephen
j. Field, ex-Justice of the Supreme
Court of the United States, removes
one of the historic figures in our judicial
annals. The name of Justice Field will
always be spoken with California in
mind, since his brilliant career was in
timately associated with our State his
tory. A pioneer of California, almost
Immediately on arrival he was given a
judicial position. In 1851 he was sent
to the Assembly. in which body he be-
came known as the author of the two
Practice Acts. Six years later he was
placed upon the Supreme bench of this
State, and later became its Chief JUS
tice, a position he filed until 1863, when
President Lincoln appointed him to the
Supreme bench Of the United States. He
was assignedl to the tenth circuit which
retained him in close alliance with Cal
ifornia. From that time until a few
months ago Justice Field served uron
the chief tribunal of the nation, one of
the most prominent figures. in our ju-
dicial history.

show man the way to long and healthy
life.
Common sense teaches that man should
not over or over-worry; that he should
take ample time for his meals, for resting
and for recreation and sleep: that he should
not neglect the little ills of life. because
they are the precursors of serious and fatal
malad1es. Chemistry has enabled men to
make combinations of drugs that were i'm
possible in the days of the alchemists
Medical science has taught when. how and
why these combinations of drugs should
be used. DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery is the most valuable of all health
restoring medicines, and the most effective.
Its hrst work IS upon the fountain head of
hfe--the stomach. A man who has weak
and impaired stomach and who does not
properly digest his food will soon find that
his blood has become weak and impover-
ished, and that his whole BODY is improp-
erly and insuf6ciently nourished. This
medicine makes the stomach strong, facil-
ltates the How of digestive juices, restores
the lost appetite, makes assimilation per
feet, invigorates the liver and purifies and
enriches the blood. 1t is the great blood
maker, flesh builder and nerve tonic. II

and cool in judgment
1t does not make fabby fat, but solid
