A Chapter on Blushing.

An Engliah physician OF some
prominence has made the startling
| statement that blushing is not due
to sentiment, as has been heretofore
supposed, but is caused by wearing
wooden socks and too heavy under
clothing.
From time immemorial 1t has
been thought that the hlush was
caused by an impression, either
pleasant or otherwise. upon the
moral sensibilities, arising from
something either seen or heard but
this doctor knocks the idea in the
head by his wonderful discovery
that blushing is the result OF wear
ing wooden clothing, which causes a
paralysis of tho sympathetic circle
of nerves surrounding the arteries,
and not contracting proporly, allow
freer flow of blood to the surface,
What O. blow this to the most cher
ished instances of our tOndest recol~
lections! No more can we congrat-
ulate ourselves upon our powers of
fascination when we see the blush
mantle the fair brow of an adored
one at our approach, for we must
know that it is not our presence
that causes it, but it is because said
adored one has on a pair OF wooden
socks. The young man who has
allowed his arm to steal softly
around the waist of his sweetheart,
and watched the bushes come and
go by the dim, Pickering light of
the parlor lamp, thought they were
u sort of barometer by which his
watchful eve could detect the CON
dltion of her affections, when the
fact was, they We're merely register
ing the temperature OF her pedal
extremities. Oh! what a rude awak
ening from pleasant dream, What
fearful inroads into our heavenly
Authorizations the onward march
of scientific research is making!
Half the pleasure of the blissful
parting at the front gate has passed
out of our lives forever; for when
the pale moonlight reveals the
crimson tinge upon her alabaster
cheek, we will be aware CT the hor-
rible fact that it is more Of tribute
to some heartless wooden mill than
it is to the saccharine bliss we are
pouring into her willing ear.

General Jouserts story saved the
Lives Of the Jameson Raiders-
A most interesting account Of the
manner IL which the lives Of Jameson
and his men were spared. after the sur
render to the Beers. is told by the
Nieuws Van den Dag of Amsterdam:
The stern old Beers, when they had
Jameson and his fellow officers in their
hands, determined to execute the lead
ers Of the band at daybreak. The meet.
ing took place in President Krugera q
house. 90 being present, Of whom the
great majority. wild with Indignation

tory. were for shooting the British Off

President Kruger opposed this sum
mary plan and used all his eloquence
and all his influence ON behalf Of the
prisoners. For long time his efforts
were vain. 1t WINS O'Clock in the
morning. and the presidents opponents
were still for execution. The lives of
the foreigners hung by a thread.
At length General Joubert. one of the
few who agreed with the president, had
recourse to the old time Boer method of
convincing MI nedrcrh ne Inhue use Oh

There was silence, and the general
continued; 1--WE have caught the pack.
Is Ii not better to send them to the
British government with demands for
reparstion. lest the British send more
hounds to worry us anew"

If Cubans have any notion of
gratitude toward the people of the
United States. and are determined
upon absolute Independence, they
could not show their gratitude any
better than by announcing to all
the world, and making it a part of
their law, that their entire trade
with the United States must
be confined either to Cuban or to
American vessels, The United
States could not. with its present
treaties, establish n law to that eff.
feet applicable to foreign shipping
coming from or going to Cuban
ports. but Cuba. at present untram-
meled by treaties, easily could. and
certainly should, in her interest
and in ours, establish such n pre-,

The Birth of the Steel Ship.

When ii could oe demonstrated
that. although it might be more
costly, the steel vessel was much
safer and better vessel, and that it
had a larger carrying-capacity on

larger earning power-then, slowly
but surely, conviction entered the
minds of the ship-owners, and the
steel makers victory was in sight.
