Mr.. Gingras of St. John sbury came
very near losing his horse last week Sum
day evening. He had been calling on
friends near the village when, on making
sharp turn west Of the village, he was
thrown from the sleigh and the horse
ran. 1t was found about half past three
Monday morning at the rear of the
house at the Ranney farm. The horse
had entered the field, gone around the
barns and almost to the piazza of the
house when in some way it fell, was un-
able to get up and had lain all night in
the deep snow. AS soon as possible the
horse was released, taken to the barn
and cared FOR until the owner called.
Little damage was done to the sleigh
and the horse came out all right, but it
was a narrow escape.

contained in the bill. however. the
Presidents hands are tied in many
ways that viii greatly retard the de-
velopment of the country. There can
be no development of the mineral
wealth of the Philippines or the hard

Congress enacts some special legisla-

Commercial Importance.

"On the other hand, there is little
doubt that such ship canal. passing
through Muscovite territory from end
to end. developing very rich tract
OF country, and bringing sea-borne
traffic to the very gates of what have
hitherto been inland towns, must be
OF very great advantage To the Rus
sian trade, and is bound to be a
commercial success, while the natural
features of the country and a clay soil
throughout its whole length, are very
favorable to its construction. Accord
Ing to usually reliable authority. it
is estimated that about one-eighth of
the canal only will have to be wholly
artificial, and that only two locks viii
be needed. The worst difficulties will
arise about the upper portion of the
Dnieper. where it flows through
marshy forests, and 200 miles from the
mouth of this river there are a series
OF nine rapids, falling LOT feet in forty
miles. The town of Ekaterinoslaff, on
the Dnieper, Is ISL feet above sea-
level, while Alexandrovsk, about fifty
miles to the south, on the same
stream, is only 40 feet above.
Whatever the difficulties may be.
Russian genius will no doubt conquer
them If the work is considered worth
carrying through. The accomplish
ment Of this gigantic Muscovite under
taking will be one Of the great events
OF the twentieth century, and 1t is TO
be hoped that, in spite of its primarily |
warlike purpose, 1t will in its ultimate |
influence upon history he a peaceful
and commercial rather than a strate- !
gical success" ],

The sensation of hunger has not been
easy to explain. The new theory of a
German physician is that it is due to
emptiness of the blood vessels of the
stomach, and it is pointed out
that hunger is appeased with the rush
OF blood to the stomach following the
taxing of food and beginning of di-
gest1on. In many anemic patients. who
nave no appetite when the stomach is
empty, the blood-vessels Of the stom-
ach are really congested, instead of
pelng empty. Lack of blood in the
stomach, in health, acts on a special
nerve, which is a branch of the same
nerve trunk as the nerves of the
mouth and tongue. A stimulus an
pied to the tongue, as by spice. thus
increases appetite, while disease az
fecting the nerves of the tongue NAV
produce loss of appetite, even when the
stomach is empty.
A novel and effective meat preserv-
ing process is claimed by DIR. William
LangWer, Hamburg bacterioIogist
The meat Is surrounded with a Iaver
or tat, and then encased in a ieIly like
congealing composition which gives Sc
cur1ty against germs by thorough ex-
cluslon of the air. The meat may be
