CURIOUS PLACES TO DWELL.

and Others in Crate~s.
Many thousands Of the people Of the
earth dwell beneath it's surface. TIL re-
are human habitations in caverns
where the light Of day never pene
trates, and the crater of extinct vol
canoes furnish shelter to scores. The
people Of Tupuselel have no need to
travel far when they want to take Il
salt water bath. The town is bu 1t en-
piles, which have been driven into
a submerged coral reef situated far
out in the Torres straits to the south
of New Guinea. Opposite this extra

1t takes the supersutious girl longer
to pawn anything. She knows It's
process that hoodoos any lucky thing
one may have, and so takes time In
making up her mind to it. :.
One Of these girls entered pawn
shop with much uncertainty of pur-
pose. She wore three possible pledges
her fraternity pin, her grandmother
engagement ring, and an old Egyptian
snake ring that brought wealth to eT'
cry wearer.
AS a matter Of loyalty to her sister
hood she couldn't leave the badge Of
that society in pawn, so she renowned
that idea. 1t lay between the two
rings. 1t became a question Of family
pride and possible lucre, and she sac
rlficed the poor family and handed
over grandmother's ring to the man
behind the counter.
A girl who was bound for house

With the progress Of civilization not
only Is insanity on the increase, but
the occurring varieties are less durable,
the physique of the tOWn-dwell1ng sec
ton Of the population has deterlorated
both in height and weight, and the
statistics of recovery are less favorable
than they were twenty-five years
ago. Serious as this may appear,
while such a state exists one can nei-
Their hope for nor expect relief from
the great financial and economic bur
den of providing accommodation for
the insane of the future. If relief is
to come, 1t will be in some great

CURE FOR LocKJAw.


lated to Inspire Fear.
large number Of deaths from
tetanus that have recently come to
light invests with great interest any
report Of a cure of the much dreaded
disease. The severity and radical ma
ture Of the remedy. however, are we'll
calculated to inspire almost as much
fear as the original attack Of the NAL
ady. Unlike other kindred infectious
ailments there Is usually no calcula-
ton for results until the poison has
done its work by attacking the brain
and nervous centers and producing
The fatal spasms Hence the only
hope rests In the injection of the
tetanus anti-toxin directly into the
brain substance. The operation Is a
severe and dangerous one, but Is the
only means at hand that appears to be
founded on the rational scientific basis
OF directly neutralizing the poison.
The successful case reported from San
| Francisco Is one in point in which It
was necessary to bore into the skull
or the victim for the purpose of intro
Auclng the neutralizing agent. No
more forcible argument in favor of
prevention Of locljaw could be urged
than that afforded by the necessity of
the situation.
Although of late a large majority of
the cases of tentanus have been charg-
ed to the toy pistol and poisoned cart
ridge, it Is we'll to bear in mind that
the real cause Is the accidental pres
ence of the bacillus on dirt-soiled
hands, and that the microbe. being
naturally developed In damp and fer.
tlllzed earth, can thus be easily driven
into wounds by an explosion. Rusty
garden implements, nails and the like
are also frequent causes of infection
especially when they produce punctur
ed LESSONS. When such conditions arc
present obviously the only course r.
pursue is to endeavor to anticipate
lockjaw by Immediately cleansing thu
wound and by injecting the and-toxi1
locally, knowing full well that will
such an opportunity lost the last, mos
desperate remedy Is all that ia left
IN connection with such facts, tn,
much stress cannot be laid upon tn,
avoidance Of all wounds from soilo,
or rusty instruments.

Much profit can be derived from an
occasional reading of Carlyle's "Sar-
tor Resartus," as the average man Is
prone to forget that the body Is more
than raiment. When the Presbyterian
Church realized that those who sought
to revise the creed did not strive to
make new body, but only asked that
O more modern garment be put on the
old one, objection to changes in for
mula disappeared, and the new creed
was adopted unanimously at the re-
cent General Assembly. Because the
church was jealous of the faith of its
fathers it took fifteen years to secure
approval of the new form Of doctrine,
the substance of which remains the
same as the old. Jealousy for the
truth, as 1t is given to one to see the
truth, tends toward a fuller compre-
81 hension Of the truth ITSELF It Is be-
cause of the conservatism Of the va
rious churches that, although much
has been said about the great changes
In the belief of men, the change in a
thousand years has not been radical
The form of words in which beliefs
have been expressed has been revised
and the conduct which was thought
fitting for Christians has been modi
ned, but the motive Of Christian life
remains the same. Each generation
serves God as best it may. This gen

GIANT eLocKs OF GRANITE.

Pillars OF the New York Episcopal
Cathedral the Largest in World.
The cathedral OF st. John the Di-
vine, which is now in process Of cree
ton in New York, near One Hundred
and Thirteenth street, will be one of
the most commodious and imposing
houses of worship in the world. Some
idea Of the character of the edifice may
be gained from the figures Of the pro-
portions Of couple Of granite col
umns received In New York on Fri
day last and which are to make part
Of an arc Of eight about the altar of
the cathedral They were brought
from Rockland, Me-. on lighter spe-
cially built for the purpose. Each
column Is in two pieces. The lower
piece Is six feet in diameter thirtysix
feet long and weighs about eighty-five
tons. The upper piece Is eighteen feet
long, six feet in diameter and weighs
about forty tons.
The contractor who had the job Of
carting the four pieces Of granite from
the lighter, at the foot of West One
Hundred and Thlrty-ffth street, to the
cathedral site is having a wagon built
especially for the purpose. The
| wheels will have tires twenty inches
wide to keep the burden they will car
ry from damaging the pavements. The
rear axle Is solid steel forging eight
inches square, and the front axle a
| solid steel forging seven inches square
The wagon will not be hauled by
horses, but by steam engines anchored
at intervals along the route. To place
the columns in position pair of what
builders call "shears" will be used
These shears will be of Oregon pine
twenty inches in diameter at the small
Ter end, and ninety-six feet long. L
is estimated that it will take six weeks
to get the columns in position. T.
