The French Supreme Court.

The constitution of the cour de cas-
.sation is as follows One president, or
chief justice, stands at the head Of the
organization, having below him three
subordinate presidents, each Of whom
has charge Of a chamber. Next in order
come 45 minor Judges, styled council
ors, 10 for each chamber. Besides these
strictly judicial functionaries, who are
appointed for life. there are seven Off
cial advocates, one Of whom is sort Of
attorney general to the whole body,
while two practice in each Of the di-
visions.
To this staff must be added four chief
clerks and about score Of minor Off
Gals Of the three chambers, the first
is court of requests, serving to decide
what cases shall be allowed to go before
the civil and criminal chambers re-
spectively. Eleven judges in all the di-
visions are necessary to form quorum.
The courts only sit three days a week,
from 10 to 4, so that this huge machine
does its work very slowly.

The Madrid Museum.

After the social side of life in the
Spanish capital has lost some of it's nov
city there are always the collections to
see and admire And, after all, the
browning glory Of the place is the Museo
del Prado, which, if not the finest in
Europe, at least ranks with the Louvre
and the galleries of Dresden and Flor
ence, says correspondent in the Chi
cago Record. The gallery is especially
rich in portraits of the great kings Of
Spain, and its chief treasures are the
works of Diego Valasquez, some so in
number. The light Of the gallery itself
is perhaps poor. but the charm of being
able to walk undisturbed and never
crowded amid this marvellous collection
of works by the masters is enough of it
self to repay a visit to Spain. The royal
collection Of armor at the palace is as
interesting as the Prado pictures, in a
way, and after these collections come
stthers less notable, but worthy Of a
great capital

A sign hanging in front of shoe
makers shop where secondhand shoes
were sold had upon it these words:
Secondhand Shoes With New Uppers. .
It seemed almost as though a pair of
secondhand shoes with new uppers
would7be practically new shoes, but in
quiry showed that this impression was
not warranted by the facts. There is a
good deal Of fresh material in a pair of
shoes thus repaired, but there is also
left good deal of the old
The new upper thus put in is new
vamp, the front part of the upper. The
old counter, or back part of the shoe,
still remains It is familiar fact that
while the counter may break down or
is much more likely to stay sound and
good. It is the front that cracks and
breaks. And SO in putting secondhand
! shoes, in order new vamps are some
times put in. But while such a shoe,
which had also been soled and heeled,
might easily be described as having IN
dergone extensive repairs it would still
be far from wholly new. There would
remain, besides the old counter, the
shank and the inner sole and the gen
| eral shape and framework Of the shoe,
and upon these the repairs could be
| made

prices, depending on their origina!

TO CURE A Eel ON.
How to Treat These Dangerous and
Painful Sores.

How TO Treat These Dangerous and
Painful Sores.
"a felon is severe and usually most
painful Inflammation of the end of the
finger, more commonly either the thumb
or index finger Of the right hand, for
the reason that these are most exposed
to the little wounds from which the
trouble starts but any of the fingers,
or even onesof the toes. may be the seat
of a felon.
The inflammation starts generally
from the prick of pin or needle or
from a scratch or cut; but often the
wound is SO slight that no notice is
taken Of it until the finger begins to.
grow sore. The soreness soon passes in
to actual pain, and this rapidly becomes
most intense and throbbing, and some
times is felt all the way up the arm.
It is worse when the hand is allowed
to hang down. The ball of the finger is
hot, red and swollen. At the same time
the patient feels more or less ILL is fe-
verish, and has headache and rapid
pulse.
When the inflammation is deep seat
ed, pus collects beneath the periosteum,
or membrane covering the bone, and
this greatly increases the distress as
we'll as the danger. Il allowed to go on
unrelieved, the Inflammation may creep
up the finger into the palm Of the hand,
and then the condition becomes most
serious one. In almost any case when
once pus has formed beneath the perios-
teum more or less Of the bone will die,
leaving the end Of the finger crippled or
disfgured by deep scar.
When the treatment is begun very
early, it is sometimes possible to cut
short the inflammation by cold cloths
applied continuously to the infiamed
part These must be frequently renew
ed, for if allowed to get warm they will
act as poultices and rather hasten sup
! puration than arrest it.. At the same
time the arm should be kept in sling,
with the hand raised and resting ON
the chest.
If the inflammation does not rapidly
subside under this treatment, we must
reverse it and try to bring matters to a
head by means of poultices or wet
cloths applied as hot as they can be
borne and changed very often.
/ The only thing to be done when pus
has formed is to cut the finger and let
it out. This is painful enough for the
instant, but it will prevent many days
of acute suffering and all danger Of
severe inflammation Of the hand and
arm, with subsequent blood poisoning.

Most Curious Clock.

One Of the most curious clocks in the
world is that which Amos Lane of
Amidee, New, constructed some time
ago. The machinery, which is nothing
but face, hands and lever, is connect
ed with geyser, which shoots out an
immense column of hot water every 38
seconds. This squirting never varies to
the tenth of second, and therefore a
clock properly attached to it cannot fail
to keep correct time. Every time the
water spouts up it strikes the lever and
moves the hands forward SO seconds.

eggs of certain fishes, notably the Cali

habit. lurking among rocks, and its
dark egg resembles leaf Of kelp or sea-
weed folded up spirally. It is deposited
among the beds of kelp and clings to
the leaves by the edges Of the spirals
The young shark bursts open the end
of the egg and swims away. Another
shark egg of the Pacific coast has ten
