4 GREAT INSTITUTION.

II Is unusual that a single institution in a
city of 5000 people will overshadOw in i'm
portance every other interest, but such is
the case with the American School Of
Osteopathy, and A L. Still Infirmary at
Kirksville, Mo.
A stranger in Kirksville is Immediately
impressed with the idea that the town is
sustained by this institution, in fact,
Kirksville has been made what it is to-day
by DR.. Still and his famous School and
Infirmary. 1t is the largest patronlzed I'M
endowed institution of its kind in the
United States.
DIR. Stills school enrolls over 700 students
yearly and each student is required to at
tend four terms of five months each before
completing the course of study. There are
over 1900 graduates and they are prac-
ticing in every state and territory of the
Union. About two-thirds Of the states
have passed special laws legalizing the
science.
This school teaches every branch taught
In medical colleges except drugs" and
osteopathy Is substituted for that. So
thorough is the teaching in anatomy that
over one hundred human bodies are dis
sected yearly by the students.
At the Intirmary, patients from every
part OF the country and with almost every
form of disease are constantly under treat
ment. For the past fifteen years almost
every train coming to Kirksville has
brought some new sufferer hoping to find re-
lief by the science of Osteopathy. By the
thousands who have left the institution
benefited by the treatment, the science has
been heralded to the world as a safe and
rational method Of cure. Several years ago
Q free clinic was established in connection
with the practice department of the school
and this is still in operation. Hundreds of
the worthy poor, who are unable to pay for
treatment, are treated every afternoon by
the senior students free Of charge.

Women and Angels.

Bishop Mcdowell smiled benignly.
He was presiding at the conference OF
the deaconesses of the Methodist con-
ference, in session at Chicago. The
question box had just been opened.
The secretary read:
'Why is it that the angels most
frequently appear in the guise OF
women"
The bishop blushed. DR.. Jackson,
who was on the platform with him,
pulled his goatee. The only other
male member of the congregation, a
newspaper man, crawled under the
seat.
"Well--well, dear sisters, the WON
en- are all angels. Perhaps if they
went anywhere else there might be
err, some talk"
The bishop continued to smile in
that bland way of his, DR.. Jackson
laughed aloud and the newspaper
man got out from under the seat. But
there were several of the speakers at
the session who extended their noses
toward the ceiling.

Oruanists Iona Lived.

Organists are proverbially long
lived, though doubtless the oldest or
ganist is Mr.. Geryase Cooper, an Eng
lish musician. He is more than nine
ty years old, but still does active
service as organist Of a Wesleyan
church. He has been associated with
the musical services of that denomi-
nation for seventy-fiye years, and for
ffty-eight years has ofiiciated as or.
ganist continuously. AnOSer notable
veteran is Mr.. T. N. Weber, who
played the national anthem at West,
minister when Queen Victoria was
crowned and did the same at the cor,
onation of King Edward, He has
been organist at the parish church
for sixty-four years.

few years ago in an article entitled
Les Pc sons de Intelligence.
When smtll doses are taken the sub
ject is garer, more intelligent and OF
more active imagination. At more
advanced stage the motor and sensi'
tive excite bility of the spinal marrow
tr tn ,.I oh q
body, the subject feels impelled to &C.
tive motion, to walk rapidly or to
dance.
He feels lighter and more contented
with himself, and has mad desire t.,
laugh. His notion of time and spact
becomes enormously amplifed; ideas
crowd into his mind; his nature and
brain seems to assume duplicate eX'
istence; his illusions are numerous
and his sensations, whether interior OF
exterior, are prodigiously magnifed
A musical note, one touch of the pI
ano, becomes to his hearing some
thing artisti;, exquisite, heavenly.
His beins vibrates at the tinies'
touch, which seems multiplied hun
dredfold. In this way a slight shaks
given to the bed seems to him al.
earthquake, the fall of tiny drops OF
water resounds like a cataract. Anc
in the same way the prick of needle
point becomes the thrust of a dagger
With stronger doses the subject
loses consciousness of himself and OF
his body. The earth suflices him nc
| longer, and he flies into the radiant
ether; he feels that he has wings and
would launch himself into the air
from the window, were he not held
| back. He rarely RECEIVERS from this
delirium if he has absorbed a con.
siderable quantity of the drug.

Black Kerchiefs for Sailors.

All sailors in the British navy are
obliged to buy a black silk handker-
chief. They get it from the govern
ment stores, and the price, about ST.,
is deducted from their pay. This year
the Admiralty has ordered 100000
handkerchiefs from the largest silk
manufacturers in the world. This
number is 10000 more than has ever
been required before. Each handker-
chief is thirty-hve inches square.

Unable to Distinguish Red.

The most common form Of color
blindness is an inability to distinguish
red. Last year thirty-four officers and
would-be officers of the British mer-
camille marine service failed on their

blind and the remainder unable to dis
tinguish green. The 1900 candidates
for certificates were also submitted
to the form vision tests and twenty
two of them failed to distinguish the

OF frost means a feast; OF wind, 1t
