Mark Twain on Medicine.

Mark Twain impaired some medical
ideas of his own to the Fellow Citi-
zenship Association Of the East Side
Settlement. at New York, few days
ago. Among other things he express
ed his conviction that three slices of
watermelons would cure the severest
cases Of dysentery. He said he had
seen it tried several times and it had
never failed.
Mr. Clemens talked of various sim
pie remedies for all sorts of diseases
that ley unused at every man. hand.
He spoke Of clergyman, friend, to
whom he had impaired the secret of
his own luxuriant hair-a stiff hair
brush and nothing else-and told how
THAT friend insisted on using hair re-.
storer that sent him to the pulpit
three consecutive Sundays with green
hair.
Then Mr.. Clemens began to talk Of
his own experiences.
/ For eight years." he said, "I was
troubled with Indigestion, which took
the form of an insurrection in my
my stomach after I went to bed. The
various things 1 thought were good
things began quarreling among them
selves and trying to agree upon fu-
sion ticket that would win out. Four
years ago I was in foreign land
where there were no drug stores, 80 I
had to resort to the Swedish cure,
which does not allow one to take med.
iciue. Therefore, I used carbonate of
soda every night. When the heart
burn came on took handful of it.
One night when I had no coda I said
to myself, II would rather stand the
pain" Pure. by accident I stretch
ed myself on my left side, and, curl
ously enough, the pain passed away.
made the experiment several times
with the same result.
"When I went to London I spoke
TO my friend, who ls secretary OF the
Royal Medical Society, and.asked him
why the heartburn passed away wien
lay on my left side. He
said he didn't know. Well, that was
in place were doctors were passing
through every day by the hundred
and l asked him to sse if any of them
could tell nc. None of them could.
One doctor, very famous one, no
less than Sir William Thomson, said
he remembered hearing Of it fifty
years ago, when his own heartburn
was cured in that way by an old man
in Germany, but he had never thought
Of it since. There was case where q
simple and certain cure was in his
hands, and yet he had forgotten it and
emptied drug stores into mis- patients
without result.

Carly Electric Phenomena.

An Englishman put on pair Of
woolen stockings over his silk ones
on a cold winter day. At night he
pulled the stockings off without
separating them and was astonished
BY the crackling noise and even the
sparks og electricity which followed.
When he drew the silk stockings
out Of the woolen ones, the cleo
trical attraction was SO manifest
that the stockings would incline to-
ward one another when held more
than o foot apart. It happened
that the silk stockings were black
and the woolen ones Of light color,
but when he tried the experiment
with both stockings OF the same
color there was no electrical appear
ance. This stocking experiment
soon got to be the fashionable tifad'
in England. Leyden jars. were
chnrged by the stocking process.
and great fun was had by giving
Light shocks to persona ara1 domestic

Printers' RIunders,

Printers are responsible for many
charming mistakes and some of
them admit the fact. Witness the
volume of sermons recently pub
lished which contained the star
ting admission: Printers have per-
secuted me without cause" Of
course it should have been
1princes," but no doubt the COM
positor was satisfied, but I don't
complain.
Parsons are the especial butts for
the jokes of the merry typesetter.
A Methodist minister is reported to
have said, esMethodism is elastic, ex-
pensive and progressive" Was it
sheer wickedness that made the
printer substitute g for a, altering
Expansive" to the more shocking
term? The bishop Of St: Asaph,
addressing his old parishioners some
time ago at Carmarthen, referred
to his younger and rasher days."
BE was naturally reported as hav-
ing spoken Of his younger and
masher days" No wonder John
Mcneil said that when he took up
the daily papers and read his re-
ported utterances he always sighed,
sVerily, we die daily !"--Chambers'
Journal.

Knew All About Il.

Rear Admiral William kirkland
was affectionately known in the
navy as "Red Bill"
A young ensign hesitatingly
found his way into the admiraIs
cabin one day, and with a great deal
Of circumlocution and coughing
finally let it be known that he loved
the admiraPs daughter, and would
be the happiest man on earth if he
had her parents consent to marry
her.
3No, STRIP thundered the ad-
miral. ssNo, stree. Not now, any
how. No pauper of an ensign is
going to marry my daughter. You'd
better wait until you are promoted
and are able to support yourself be-
fore you think Of marrying"
The young officer astounded the
admiral by not retiring precipitate-
~. He even ventured the reminder
that the admiral himself had mar
ried when he was but an ensign, and
that his married life had been q
happy one:

presumptuous speaker for o. mo-

Two Paragraphs.

Sometimes one has to draw a moral
from whatever page of life is being
reed. Sometimes the moral draws
itself, and needs no words to make it
slear.
A little while ago, a steamer, laden
with passengers from the gold fields
of the Klondyke, homeward bound,
struck an iceberg off Douglas leland,
Alaska, aud went down with nearly
all on board. It was the testimony Of
those who escaped, that if the pas
sengers had promptly and coolly taken
their places in the boats, there would
have been little loss Of life. But the
treasure they had in their storerooms
or in the purser's safe was their first
thought, and its weight W. 80 great
that the boats could not 5e them
safely. They delayed, and apsdelay
cost them their lives. Two paragraphs
in tho published account of the disas
ter form so. striking commentary on
! &c. cHiy th;s particular shhipwTcoS,
but on the many sadder sbipwreoks of
mems souls to-day, that we reproduce
them here:--
"Mr. H, Of Klondyke, had
forty thousand dollars in gold dust,
which he abandoned, jumping into
the last boat, and reached the shore in
safety.
"Mr. K, another Klondyker,
took his portmanteau, containing forty
thousand dollars in gold dust, from
the, purser, and jumped from the sink
ing ct amer to boat, but failed to
reach it. Both the man aud his
treasure sank"
That is eli. But is it not enough?
"Both the man and his treasure sank. "
Surely we do not need to add another
word.

The hIGHESY CLIMB.
Mount Evercst's Snow Capped Summit
Has Never Been Reached.

Mount Evercst's Snow Capped Summit
Has Never Been Reached.
If you thirst for something really
new, If you want to do something
which has never been done before,
here is chance for you. Climb
Mount Everest. It's height is 9,002
feet, and you will not find anything
in the nature of q paper bag on its
snow capped summit, for the ex-
cursionist has not reached there yet.
The highest point to which man
has SO far climbed is 23,393 feet.
This is the height Of Aconcagua,
the ioftiest summit of the main cor
6illera of the Andes. This point
was reached by the guide Mattias
Zurbriggen and>>Mr. Vines, two
members of the expedition that
went out in 1897 under Mr.. E. A..
Fitzgerald. Before this the record
was held by Sir William Martin
Conway's expedition, which in 1892
climbed a mountain in the Karaka-
ram Himalayas just $4,000 feet
high.
Man having asccnded to height
of 23,393 feet, the question to be
now considered is whether he will
ever be able to reach $4,000 feet.
We live at the bottom of an ocean
of air, and our bodies are specially
adapted for life at low levels; conse-
quently when we are placed in un-
usual conditions. such as exist at
great height, we are affected in va
rious ways. Respiration becomes
difficult, the circulation of the
blood is altered, the heart is IA
tigued, mountain sickness" is ex-
perienced, lassitude and exhaustion
follow. On this subject Sir Martin
Conway observes:
"On two occasions when I have
been at $4,000 feet I have felt that
l could have climber farther, and
that if / could have slept there I
might have climbed much farther.
The problem of climbing Mount
Everest will be confronted by two
main difficulties politics and
finance. If the government of In
dia would persuade the government
of Nepal to let the Alpine club trv,
and if about $4,000 were forth
coming and party, with an ample
supply of portors, could devote two
or three consecutive years to the
attempt, there would be some
chance Of conquering the peak"

sIberla,e vass Ares.

In discussing Siberia, statements
7of dimension and distance confuse
and bewilder rather than enlighten.
It is of small advantage to dwell
upon its area Of over 100000
square miles. If The forty-fve
states which compose the American
Union were taken up and planted
bodily in the midst Of Siberia, they
would be inclosed in every direction
by o wide border of land. In this
border territory all the countries of
Europe except Russia could likewise
be planted bodily and there would
remain still unoccupied 100000
square miles, an area twice the size

The lnn In Literature.

The social Importance Of the inn
in days of old is proved by. the con-
spicuous position it holds in our
fiction and poetry. The "Canter-
bury Tales" Of Chnucer start from
an inn, along with the motley COM
pany Of pilgrims bound for st.
Thomas shrine, to whom the genius
Of the poet has given an immortal
life. Its site and name, the Tai
bot or Tabard, still preserve the
memory Of the famous inn thus as
sociated with our first great Eng
ish poem. It was not, Rowever,
until the reign Of Elizabeth that the
tavern attained to permanent
place in literature, rejecting the inn
portant place it held in the daily
life Of the people.Al the Year
Round.
