Medical Use of Whiskey.

From the Hospital.l
Whiskey as an alternative to wine
may undoubtedly be employed medi-
cinally with advantage in certain
cases, both for men and for women.
But this is very different from the
constant recommendation which is
suggested, as if, indeed, doctors re-
gard whisley as a sort OF panacea
for every disease under the sun, and
take a perfect delight in urging its
consumption upon their patients. AS
a matter of fact, there never was a
time when medicinal men were more
slow to prescribe the use OF alcohol
in any form than they are in the pres
ent day, nor a time when SO many re-
Trained from advising it's use at all.

SOME BIG ICEBERGS

Leslie's Monthlyl
Think of sections bigger than
Rhode Island being torn from gla-
cier and swept off into the ocean, to
be ferried 5000 miles on the bosom
of the Labrador current until the
heated waters of the Gulf Stream
cause them to vanish from human
ken, Then can one form some idea
of the immensely Of the ice area dis
charged from the Greenland seas
each year Thousands of miles of
valley are constantly emptying their
contents into the bays and fiords at
the north waters, whence the tides
hurry the detachments southwark to
cunnber the wide Atlantic.
The disposition of icebergs to
turn turtle is one of the most dan
gerous propensities. 1t arises from
several causes. When they start out
from Greenland their bottoms are
heavy with the detritus gathered in
their glacial period, and this drops
off at intervals as they move south,
causing their center of gravity to
change and the berg to assume new
positions. The scientific theory of
the formation of the vast subma-
rine plateaus which extend from Lab
rador to Fundy and are commonly
known as the Great Banks of New
foundand is that they are the pro-
ducts of the deposits of bergs during
countless ages.

Sued a President.

Kansas City Journal
Pawnee county, Kansas, claims to
be the residence of the only living
man who sued a President of the
United States. His name is G. S.
Van Eman and he lives at Jennings.
Van used to run sheep ranch up
in Lyon county, Kansas, and was get
ting along all right until Grover
Cleveland was elected President and
the edict went forth that wool was to
be put on the free list. Van had about
con summated a sale, but claims the
fear of tariff changes forced the price
of sheep down several points. Fur
thermore, his regard for his sheep
and country was so high that he
was ashamed to look sheep in the
face under the conditions that Cleve-
land forced upon them, SO during the
reign of Grover he made a practice
of beginning at the rear end Of a
sheep to shear it. This greatly hui
inflated him and caused him to lose
prestige with his hired hands and
merinos.
Feeling intensely aggrieved and
materially damaged, he sued Grover
Cleveland, President of the United
States, getting service by publica-
ton, and attained a judgment of $500.
OF, course, it was never collected, for
Grover never got in reach of an ex-
ecution. But Van claims he felt bet
ter, though the debt remains unpaid.
