10 in order 10 accustom oneself 10 1t
is TO remove the bolster. Within few
mouths. he says. one will he able to
sleep much more calmly Than ever be-
fore, and, moreover. the general health
will be much improved.
This statement. lie insists. is not
made lightly, but is the result of long
experience
The next Step. he says, is 10 rcmov"

circulation Of the blood be rs free as i
should he.
In further explanation lie says that
HE pillow and bolster keep the head

that consequently HE sleepcr's entire
body remains during the night in an
uncomfortable position and one which
lnpcdes tile free curse of the blood

The Medical Record is authority for
the statement that the odor of new

typhus is Indicated by an ammoniac
smell, inundice by musky oac. vel,
low fever by the odor OF Il bun barrel,
hysteria by suggestion of vlolets or
pineapples. intermittent fever by the
smell of fresh baked brown bread and
measles by one like fresh picked feath
ers.
In cholera the odor of the skin is am
moniacal. 1t is acid in what is called
milk fever. acetoformic in rheuma-
tism, particularly in the region of the
engorged articulations; OF new baked
bread in scarlatina. In smallpox the
odor is that OF the fallow deer; in ty-
phoid fever it is that of blood.
1t seems somewhat incongruous that
the smell OF the plague resembles
honey.

The Eskimo dog is derived from the

were traiued to serve mankind were

keen eyed customer who had handed
him package to be sent to western
city. The man addressed did not an
swer at once, but glanced at printed
card on the wall that reads, Always

"If / state the value, can prove a
greater value IL it is lost?'
.You viii have to ask lawyer that
question" replied the agent.
"That isn't necessary, for happen TO
know the law" said the shipper. Your
company is trying TO establish an un-
fair rule. because it works only one
way. You are right when you say that
my statement cannot bind yon. for In
case OF loss you can prove the value.
but my statement would bind me. Tor
the court would say that / was 'estop-

EFF shipper should undervalue his
shipment. thinking that thereby he
would reduce the charges, he would
have TO stand by his statement, and
your notice is calculated to make him
do that very thing. You can mark my

the whaling ship Beacon Light when
pne morning we sighted brig which
was sailing such an eccentric course
rthat we knew there must be trouble
aboard. She was under plain sail only.
and we ran down 10 her TO discover
tiaat SHE was abandoned and taking
rare Of herself / was one OF the four
men sent on in the mates boat TO
board her, and when we had brought
her to the wind our captain came
aboard for personal inspection. The
brig was the Princess Of London, out
ward bound, and i new craft and n
fne one. We could find nothing wrong
with her. She was as dry as a bone,
NIL right aloft. with water and proyi-
sions in plenty. She had carried
crew Of twelve. and there had been
no sickness or mutlny. The crew had
simply provisioned the boats and
showed or. leaving a stanch craft TO
drive about until some gale sent her
10 the bottom or current carried her
ashore ON rockbound coast Her
log was written mp 10 three days be-
fore we found her, and 1t had nothing
to say OF any trouble aboard.
Here was a knotty problem 10 solve.
That good ship loaded with valu-
able cargo should be abandoned by
full crew in mldoccan without seem
ing excuse was puzzle beyond our
ken. After search lasting for three
hours aud with nothing new coming
to the surface the mate and eight men
were put aboard as n crew, aud II was
decided TO sail her into Chilean port.
The salvage would pay better than
looking after whales. When we got
sail on her. she was found to be very
fast and those OF us who made up the
crew felicitated ourselves on having
a regular picnic in taking her up the
coast All day long we kept sharp
lookout for the boats which had left
her, but darkness fell without our hay-
ing caught sight OF them. OF course
there had been talk and argument and
speculation all day long but never a
man had limited at anything super,
natural. Sailors win tell you of haunt
ell ships, but they are always old
craft. With her paint hardly dry and
her rigging not yet fully stretched 1t
was impossible TO connect the Princess
with anything uncanny. \ landsman
