A peasant presented a parcel for dis
patch to an official in the central post
office of Triest and was roughly told
that it could net be received as it was
improperly done up. The peasant in
quired how it ought to be done up, and
the official sharply replied that it was
not his business to tell him. Here a
gentleman interviewed on the peasant s
behalf, but was told by the official that
if he had any fault to find he had bet
ter complain to the superintendent.
The gentleman did SO, but was told
that postal officials could not be expect
ed to teach the public and that if he
was not satisfied he had better COM
plain to the director.
The gentleman thereupon pulled out
a card and said: 81 have no time to go
to the director. I request you to go to
him yourself and tell him that order
him to come here instantly and himself
instruct this man how he must make
up his parcel.
The superintendent looked at the
card and trembled when he read the
name Archduke Louis Salvador. The
director lost no time in coming. He
stormed at the superintendent, who in
turn stormed at the official, and all
three nearly fell over one another in
their zeal to show the peasant how to
do mp his parcel. A more carefully
made up package probably never passed
through the Austrian postoffice.

A pathetic incident which happened
recently in this city shows that strong
will can sometimes do more in combat
ing dread disease than all the skill of
the medical fraternity. An entire fam
lily, consisting of both parents and four
children of tender age. was stricken
with malignant pneumonia. The wife
was apparently the worse sufferer, and
her case was given up by the doctors as
beyond hope. Meanwhile her husband
became suddenly worse and died. Ev-
erything that medical science could do
had been done for the wife without
avail. and after consultation the ply
sicians decided to take desperate risk
and tell her of her husbands death.
reasoning that the shock might kill her,
but also might arouse her ebbing
strength and assist in checking the
coma which was already presaging dis
solution.
The experiment was tried and when
the devoted mother learned that her
death would leave her children without
a protector. her mother love aroused her
last energies and she not only survived
the great shock of her life partner s
death, but she actually recovered
