board of railroad commissioners for the ap-
proval of the articles of association of d
proposed company to be known as the Ban

is nothing to prevent the legal building of
another road running out from Bangor to
connect with it. A board of directors has

Malformation.

Few people realize the malformation
of their own bodies, no matter how
perfectly formed" they are supposed
to be. The two sides of person )
face are never alike. The eyes are
out of line in two cases out of five
and one eye Is stronger than the other
in seven persons out of ten. The right
eye is also, rs a rule, higher than the
left. Odly one person in fifteen has
perfect eyes, the highest percentage of
defects prevailing among fair haired
people. The smallest vibration of
sound can be better distinguished with
one ear than with both. The nails
OF two fingers never grow with the
same rapidity, that of the middle fin
ger growing the fastest. while that Of
the thumb grows slowest. In fifty
four cases out of one hundred the left
leg is shorter than the right.
