Medical Notes.


W hen man, rich and respected, one
who dimes and wines not wisely, but too
well, one who goes the pace in sensual
luxury, pays the inevitable debt of ma
ture; when his degenerated tissues re-
fuse to longer perform their functions;
when his brain becomes so soft that the
blood escapes from the arteries, and SUI
fusing the brain, induces apoplexy, and
the man falls a victim to "a Shock" or
the kidneys rebel and coma ensues; his
friends, metaphorically weeping at his
death, engrosS resolutions of coincidence,
laying particular stress upon his untime-
ly demise; attributing his death to the
inscrutable ways of a mysterious ProVi-
denee with a big P.
When an ignorant workman, poor but
honest, warns a stick of dynamite over
the kitchen stove and is blown to eter-
nifty, in atoms, the newspapers attribute
1t to innate idiotic foolishness.
That's the difference, but 1t IS one Of
degree only, in time and form, for the
rich man and the poor man have each
committed unprecedented suicide, only
the rich mans method is pleasanter and
not so rapid.
When a rich and respected woman goes

much abbreviated corsage and a much
elongated skirt; sits for hours in the viii
ated and overheated atmosphere: stands.
later, for many minutes in the damp and
chilly night air and later comes down.
with pneumonia, that too is considered
another visitation of Providence.
When a washerwoman, poverty
stricken but thrifty still, works first in a
steam and moisture-laden atmosphere in
an overheated room, filed with noxious
carnations of soiled linen, and then goes
out into the bitter cold wind to air and
dry the clothes. and soon after also
comes down with pneumonia, that's a
difference and misfortune, yet the diff
ference, after all, is one between self
qualification and that of necessity. It's a
misfortune that the wealthy woman
doesn't use common sense, and mis-
fortune that the poor woman can't put
1t in practice.

careless or dirty knife.
Miss Lowandhumble is lucky if she has
any shoes at all to wear. She may be
shod like the savages with nothing at all,
which may be to her advantage for a
while When she does get a pair of shoes

the poorest in quality, stiff and unyield-
ind, veritable instruments of torture and
distortion. Try as she will she will get
a misfit-no pun intended-and the evil
results will be as many as or more than
those of the best that money can buy,
although she may buy Miss Highland
haughty's shoes at secondhand and get
her troubles. When she cuts her corns
with the carving knife, and dies from
| blood poisoning, or catches her death o.
cold, because her shoes are over-yen-
tilated by unrepaired wear and tear,
Providence will be blameless; it will be
attributed to the pitiable consequences
of her misfortune
When Miss Highandhaughty is enter
ing her teens she will think it is the
age of the Inquisition, for she will be
fitted to corset that she may acquire
form. Rumor says that her mother will
fasten these around her with chains and
padlocks, if need be, while her entreaties
tears and groans of anguish will be
powerless to abate the torture one whit.
By and by, when the unyielding steel and
buckram have nodded the soft flesh and
twisted the plant bone, bisected the liv-
err, driven the stomach down into the
southeast by east corner, changed the
relative bearings of the other organs and
set everything askew, there will be
cry of distress from within. The doc
tor will tell her all these evils come from
corsets, but she will say 1t can't be, for
she has got used to them so that she
can't get along without them, and 50
she can't, as all her muscles have been
atrophied by the continued pressure and.

dressmaker insists upon fitting her
dresses over corsets; otherwise she won't

every month eggs, onions, young dogs
and such like delicacies were deposited
as offerings to Hecate at three cross
roads, where her three-formed statues
were erected. Strange to say these idols
Were the prototypes of the later day
shrines, for Diana, in her higher attrib-
.utes and character, has been perpetuated
as the Virgin.
Witches chanted their lamentations at
acknowledgements pale noon-and herbs
gathered at this hour, when the moon
was full and had magical powers Diana
was called Lucina because she brought
man into the light, although she was a
goddess of darkness, and light is her at
tribute. Hence, people bored their ears
because that was thought to favor clear
sight and prevent disease of the eve.
On the contrary, Miss Highandhaugh-
tvs bored ears are apt to cause serious
trouble. The puncture may not heal
readily or kindly, and suppuration may
3ensue; the earring may tear the lobe of
the ear and even split it; sometimes the
puncture determines an eczema and
sometimes it sets UP hitherto latent
scrofula, while the needle used or pair
of borrowed earrings may inoclulate the
system with some fearful disease.
Numerous recorded actualities show
the possibilities of this danger One
young lady was vaecinated in the ear
by borrowed earrings. Another girl con-
tracted consumption by wearing ear
rings bequeatfed to her as memento
by friend who died of consumption
Nor are these the only dangers. Cases
are on record where screw earrings have
become so deeply embedded in the flesh,
which has swollen around them. that a
surgeon was needed to cut them out
Moreover, earrings, IN ancient days,
We're worn only by slaves, and were signs
of servility; in modern times this has
been but slightly changed, for those who
wear earrings are still slaves-to fashion.
1t is servility to initiative custom
and vulgar ostentation. and moreover the
lady who wears valuable earrings, in
the form of costly diamonds, offers a
temptation to Providence in the shape
of highwayman who snatches her jew
els from her ears.
Miss Lowandhumble, on the other hand,
having no jewels in her ears, is more
fortunate in this respect, but she often
loses a jewel that she should value as

the decline which has now taken place
in the price OF the staple is calculated TO
induce selling by such holders in both the

heretofore kept back supplies on the pos

irregular price movement during today !,
short session on the Stock Exchange.
Speculation was active in only few
stocks and the contrary movement in
these had the effect OF confusing the sen
timent of the room traders. The pub
iished rumor that Pennsylvania will
lease Chesapeake and Ohio Tor 99g years
with a guaranteed dividend of per cent
per annum caused an excited opening in
that stock. the first transactions OF 3, 500
shares carrying the prices l9s over last
night. This proved 10 be the highest
price of the day. as the recent large al
vance in the stock offered handsome
profits for large speculative holdings.
Amalgamated Copper scored a violent re-
