ST have seen thousands of persons

ST have seen thousands of persons
die under all sorts of circumstances,
and never yet have I seen one display
the slightest fear of DEATH" This re-
markable statement was made the
other day, according to the Philadel-
phia Record, by a physician who has
practioed many years in Philadelphia,
and who has seen great deal of hos
pital service.
''It is a popular fallacy," he went
on, "to imagine that a deathbed scene
is ever terrible, other than as a part
ing between loved ones. The fear of
the unknown is never present at the
last. Even amid ignorance and vice
I have never experienced such scenes
as a novelist, who strives after real
ism, will sometimes paint.
''When patient is told that he can
not recover and the end is near, he
Invariably seems resigned to his fate,
and his only thought seems to be of
those who are left behind. This is
true alike of men and women.
Those who become hysterical and
declare they are not fit to die are the
ones who are not as ill as they think
they are. These always get we'll. A
psychological reason? Oh, don't
know that there is any. It's just a
human trait"

TIE NEW CENTURY.

Much has been said and written as
to the time when the old century
would end and the new one begin.
And yet, reasonably considered, it
seems to us nothing could be more
simple. Our calendar, in reaching it's
present state of perfection has under
gone several changes and modifica-
been of a corrective tendency, SO that
for the present question it is proper to
i speak of it as having existed in it's
present form from the dawn of the
Christian Era.
Now all that is necessary to "figure
out'' this century question is to get it
fixed in ones mind that it takes one
hundred years, full and complete,
from the very first minute of the first
day of the first year to the very last
minute Of the last day of the last year,
| inclusive, to make full and complete
century. Also that the last year Cor
any part of it) of one century cannot
by any posi- BILE reasoning or Juggling
form any part OF the succeeding CEN
fury. Hence, the first century was
day of the year to the last day of the
year 100. Ninety nine years woul d
not complete it, it required the one :
hundredth year and all of it. The
second century then began with the
year 1O1 and ended with the year 200
To
which must end when the year 1900
ends. The first century began with
the year one and each succeeding
century begins with one for it's right
and figure.
In speaking of the last year of a
century, the jim gle of the language is
a little confusing. The nineteenth
century does not end when we stop
saying 1899 and begin to say 1900.
The number of a century is always
unit larger than the hundreds figure
in the year number, until the last year
of the century when they become the
same for one year only.
Now the foregoing is correct in the
Dry and fact when applied to any
given meridian of longitude. How
ever, since the earth is twenty four
hours in making a complete revolu-
ton from west to east, and conse-
quently the sunrise point is the same
time in making complete circuit
from east to west, it follows that when
the old century ends and the new one
begins on a given meridian, the old
century still has another hours con-
troll on the meridian fifteen degrees
west and twenty-three hours on the
meridian fifteen degrees east. In
other words the old century recedes
from east to west at the rate of fifteen
degrees an hour, and is just twenty
four hours in passing from the face of
