Dead Man stand. EJECT.

A man standing on the pavement,
erect but dead, grasping in his hands
an arc lamp, was the sight which at
tracted people the other night in front
of Cafe Schurman, 3sS Bowery, New
York. The electric lamp had fallen
from its bracket over the door and was
suspended by the wires. Charles Nord,
a waiter in the restaurant, had seen 1t
fall. Realizing the danger to passers-
by, ne rushed from his station near the
front door and seized the lampsby two
iron rods running down its sides. He
was standing on a wet iron grating.
His hands were damp, and the shock
killed him instantly. The current held
him like wise. Mr.. Condi, one of the
proprietors of the cafe, rushed out, and,
selling the dead waiter by the collar of
his coat, jerked him backward and
broke his hold on the iron rods.

TEE HOME DOCTOR,

Sleep can frequently be induced by
lying on the face with the right arm
under the head in place of pillow,
Bathing the face in hot water every
Ave minutes for an hour will sometimes
cure cold in its first stages. -Four
hours vigorous exercise in the open
air will also frequently cure cold.
Those who suffer with eczema can
often obtain relief by applying lint
wrung out in cold water or lead lotion
to the affected parts. Only nourishing
and digestible food should be taken.
By breathing through the nose the
air is both warmed and purified before
i. reaches the lungs. The nostrils act
ay a sort OF sieve, allowing only pure
air to poss lnyond their domains

There is doubtless far greater loss of

excuse is" the doctor didn't under

rot the subjects OF special inquest or the
country would be aghast at the sacrifice
of life to ignorance.
