The Body and Electricity.
From Parsons Magazine.

The body resembles nothing so much as a
machine for generating electricity. Occa-
sionally it gets out of repair and conse-
quently fails to produce the amount Of
power needful to keep us alive; and it is
upon this subject that Prof. D'Odiardi has
much of interest to say.
Pointing out the various static machines
and queer instruments which adorn his
hospital, he explained
1T may at once be said that while there
is hardly any result that cannot be OBJ
tanned by means of electricity and the
physical forces suitably administered, yet
this electricity must be conveyed in doses
as accurately measured as to time quantity
and intensity as the most powerful drug;
its effects also vary in the most remark
able manner according to the strength
quantity and quality of the current.
1T is possible by it's means TO increase
by one-fourth the quantity of oxygen in the
blood; to increase or diminish the supply of
blood to any part Of the organism, however
deeply seated; to raise or lower the tenn
perature; to increase or diminish the fire.
quency and quality of the pulse and reSpi-
ration; to stimulate or slacken the function
Of any organ; to recharge exhausted or
ganic cells and to make them proliferate
new cells of a superior type; to cause a
hundred and one other things which fifty
years ago would have been looked upon as
miracles; and last, but not least, by it's use
it is possible to sustain the circulation of
the blood and the respiration in cases
where, without such help, syncope or as
last method ] have kept patients alive for
days, until at length the new supply of
electricity has told upon the system and
snatched them from deaths door"

No Coeducation in Germany.
From the Chicago Record Herald.


While the German government is willing
as an experiment to permit girls to attend
the existing gymnasiums it will adhere to
its decision that they should only be ad-
mitted to the universities as guests" This
is the position of the German govern
ment as announced in the lower house of
the diet by the minister of public inStruc-
ton. 1t is of special interest in this coun-
try at this time because of the manife5tly
changing attitude of public opinion on the
question Of co-education. The trend of ad-
vanced educational thought is unquestion-
ably away from co-education and ir favor
OF the segregation of the sexes, OF the edu-
cation of the sexes in separate institutions
as conducive to the best work and the
highest scholarship. At the same time it
is not denied that co-educatiul has its
jealous and able champions.
1t should be borne in mind, however, in
considering the attitude of the 'ierman
government this question, that the Ger
man idea of "Woman's sphere is quite diff
ferent from that which prevails in the
United States, and that the position of
woman in Germany is different from that
occupied by woman here. The German idea
Of the education Of woman is that she
should be educated for the home; that the
domestic sphere offers the highest and
best fields for the employment of her tall
ents and attainments Even tre instruc-
ton of girls in the high schools is made
to conform as far as practicable to present
requirements of domestic life. Germany
does not believe that womar's advance"

THE BOYS APPETITE.
Some Explanation Of Its Size and a
Guess at It's Cause.

From the New York Times
An English schoolmaster has just COM
pleted an exhaustive research into the SUBJ
ject Of boys capacity for food. In sum-
ming up the case, he is frank to admit that
while he found a superabundance of ca
pacity, there was actually little or no
limit.
Perhaps after rich cake, both fruit and
plain, the first favor, according to the
schoolmaster, is condensed milk This Is
often eaten without spoon by simply
making two small holes in the top Of the
can and placing the lips against them.
Then. after this, come chocolates, chocolate
cream. chocolate candy, chocolate cake.
he says, when 1 say that 1 have seen a
boy Of ten years eat in single afternoon
enough food to Salty an adult party of
twelve persons. l have myself known a
little, trail boy to eat a portion of a rich
cake, third of a one-pound can of con-
denSed milk, four ounces of mixed choco-
late, handful of assorted sweets, two or
anges. one apple. four gingerbread cakes,
a dozen Brazil nuts and two large pieces of
peppermint candy.
Did it make him Ill? Did he lie down
and groan and await the coming of the
medical man with the stomach pump? Not

eaSlness, which he quickly diSpelled by a

ner of a sleeping baby Then he walked
about for a time, and presently accepted
an invitation to join in a game of ball.
The schoolmaster's observations have led
to the very natural deduction that a boy s
condition is in many ways different from
that of the trained strong man. The latter
could not eat the things that boy could,
because his fitness is mainly muscular
while the boys is in addition to being mus
cular, organic. The man may have a slug
gish liver or faulty kidneys, and still be a
strong man, but the boy who runs and
romps and turns somersaults and shouts
and laughs. and twists and turns, hasn't a
single blemish.
