Shock After Rnrna.

Shock, which is always present in
severe burns, requires the administra-
ton of stimulants. The amount Of
shock or collapse after any bad in
jury or sudden fright differs with the
character of individuals. Some sue
cumb to it much more readily than
others. When serious, the tempera-
ture drops below normal, the face is
pale, pinched and anxious, the pulse
slow and feeble, the body bathed in
a cold perspiration. Sometimes there
is shivering. Sometimes the mind
wanders. Place the patient at once
in a horizontal position. the head
slightly raised. Administer stimu-
lants, alcoholic or aromatic vinegar. If
whisky or brandy is used, give from
q teaspoonful to tablespoonful Of hot
water every ten minutes until five or
six doses have been taken. Surround
the body and legs inside the thighs
and under the armpits with hot water
bags, hot stones-anything to give
warmth-but take care not to burn
your patient If the injury is to the
head, follow the same treatment, but
omit the alcoholic stimulant.

work That The Heart Does.

The work of the heart is the circu-
lation of the life giving blood through
out the body. With each stroke or
beat of the heart it projects something
like six ounces of blood into the bod
lily conduits, throwing it for distance
of nine feet. That it does slXty-n1ne
times a minute, 4, 40 times each hour,
99,360 times in a day, 36,266,4OO times
in a year and 2,54O,337, 12O times IN
lifetime of seventy years. The blood
is propelled by the heart nine feet each
beat, 207 yards each minute, seven
miles an hour, 169 miles in day, 6l,Sl7
miles in year and 4,330, 12O miles IN
the seventy years
The total force exerted by the heart
every twenty-four hours has been cal
culated to be equal to 124 foot tons
that is, if the whole force expended
by the heart in twenty-four hours were
gathered into one huge stroke such
power would lift 124 tons one foot off
the ground. This being the daily
force, that exerted in year would be
equal to 1920 foot tons and that IN
lifetime of seventy years 3,lIO,3O3.
Such is the enormous amount OF work
performed by the human heart, winch
only weighs eleven ounces and is about
the size of the closed fist.

Tpue Literature.

We are inclined on the whole to be-
lieve that the stimulus to literary pro-
duction exists within and not without
the man. 1t is not external circum-
stances, poverty or riches, sickness or
health, greatness or humbleness, that
determine the productions or output OF
genius. 1t is the characteristics OF the
man that determine not what he shall
learn or what he shall think, but what
he shall do. A stimulus from without
such as poverty, may start production
of course, but that is merely the phys
ical awakening of a disposition that IN
any circumstances would have been
awakened in some way at some time
True literature is the voice of the soul
calling from the windows of the house
of clay in response to those things OF
life that touch the nature of the soul
that speaks.-London Spectator.

SaiIors, Curious Pets.

It has been said Of the jackie sailor
boy that he is so passionately fond OF
pets he must have something to love,
if it is "only a cockroach in 'baccy
box" This statement was founded on
fact, for one of the most remarkable
pets of an English ship was q mon
strous cockroach. He was four inches
long and one inch broad.
One of the sailors had tanned him
and built for him q cage with little
kennel in the corner of it. This in
sect prodigy learned to recognize his
masters voice, and when he, heard
him call would hurry out from his
kennel in response.
Among other odd pets that have been
beloved by English sailors was a seal,
who had tank residence on board
and a daily round of pleasure and
duty, his pleasure seven meals day,
his duty bath after each meal. An
other was a deer, who would take a
quid of tobacco with so much delight
that the fellow feeling aroused by his
appreciative taste made him a general
faVorite.

According to Formula.

Judge Pennypacker was once asked
by his brother Harry during a session
of court for the loan of So. Harry
walked to the desk and whispered the
request in the judges ear. The latter,
looking down over the top of his
glasses without the suggestion of a
smile, said loud enough to be heard
throughout the room:
"Put your application in writing and
present it to the court in Il proper man
ner."
Mr.. Pennypacker, thinking the judges
insistence upon regularity to be merely
regard for the dignity of the court,
wrote out the request and handed it to
the clerk Of the court, who in turn
passed it to the bench. The judge read
it quietly and seriously and then in
terrupted the pending trial long enough
to say:
application for a loan of So made
to this court is received and refused"

A senator was delivering a long,
