One night recently a party of tour.
lists at a hotel were telling stories OF
famous shots and how many ducks
and other birds had been killed at a
single discharge. After listening for
some time to what seemed a wilful
-exaggeration by different n~arrators, a
man who was present volunteered his
first and only experience of the fatal
double-barreled gun. He began: 81

an immense flock of blackbirds. l
should say there were 10000 in the
flock. Yet, quite 10000. Slowly l
crawled up to them and when not
more than thirty yards away the birds
rose in a solid mass. I fired both bar
rels, and how many do you think /
killed." Different guesses were made
ranging from twenty to one hundred
birds. Not one" said the stranger,
"but I went out with my brother to
look for results, and we picked up
thirty bushels of legs. I had shot a
little too low!" That was the last
story told that night.-The Taller.

A good story is told by the writer
Of Some Stories of the Concert Plat
form concerning Nine. Patey, the
famous English contralto. The sing
err was delighting a large audience in
the Town Hall at Birmingham. when
a workingman at the rear of the
building was observed to be in tears.
There was nothing in the words to
account for this display Of feeling.
and, had this been otherwise. the
famed prima donna was singing in the
Italian tongue. But the grief of the
man became more pronounced ere
Nine. Patey had concluded. At length.
mid a thunder of applause. the sing
err retired, and the stranger was asked
the reason of his grief.
"She reminds me so O. my darter,'
said the fearful one. "She wos in the
singin' line"
"But surely your daughter could not
sing like that?' queried the man in
the next seat.

another sob: "but you never could tell
what she wos singin' about!'

ALCOHOL in MOST MEDICINES.

Indispensable Requisite In Compound.
ing of Some Prescriptions.
1t is of curse true that some pro-
prietary medicines contain alcohol and
Yearly all liquid medicines prescribed
by physicians contain it. No honest
man will defend the sale Of intoxi-
cants under the guise of medicine; but
every honest man should protest
against a system of wholesale denun-
citation born of malice or ignorance
Of pharmaceutical principles and fos-
tered by selfish interests. 1t is as.
su-ned that alcohol is the cause of in
temperance; but there is a great diff
terence between alcohol and whisky.
Ii a substitute for alcohol could be
found for use in the manufacture of
medicines Its discoverer would render
a great service to the profession of
pharmacy and the science of medi-
cine, for alcohol is a very expensive
Ingredient and a cheaper substitute
would be gladly accepted. Unfortun-
htely the word alcohol in the minds Of
many people is associated exclu-
sively with bar-rooms, drunkenness
and all forms of degradation, and vice.
This is due to a lack of knowledge
by the general public of the fact that
alcohol is an indispensable requisite
in drugs, tinctures and fluid extracts.
All fluid extracts and tinctures on the
druggists shelves contain from 20 to
30 per cent of alcohol; and of all
liquid medicines prescribed by ply
sicians more than Is per cent contain
1t in large proportions.
Alcohol is required to preserve or.
eanic substances from deterioration
and from freezing, and it is also re
Quired to dissolve substances not solu.
BILE in water, while it contributes to
their preservation when dissolved,
Diluted alcohol is largely employed in
fluid extracts; and whenever a greater
strength of alcohol is required as q
solvent (for extracting medicinal prin.
ciples) the medicine is of such a char.
acter as to preclude a large dosage;
and for this reason preparations, ever
If containing SO per cent or more OF
alcohol ARE practically less intoxicat
Ing than beer. In such cases the
character of the medicinal constituents
is such as to absolutely forbid the
taking of the medicine in any way
except in very small doses and q,
stated intervals only. To assume that
any great number of proprietary med
icines are used as beverages is the
veriest abSurdity.-Exchange

times the teacher is the victim of this
insidious disorder, and all in the room

OF breathing infected air.
In school hygiene, one very import
ant element is a healthy teacher.
If children suffering from tubercu-
losis have a chance to live at all, it is

Joke on Jacob Riis.

Once in a Massachusetts town ia
cob A. Riis was asked by a gaunt, fu-
neral sort of a chap what he should
say by way Of introducing him to an
assemblage. "Oh," replied Mr.. Riis
in a spirit Of levity, "say anything ~.
like. Say / am the most distinguished
man in the country. They generally
do" Whereupon his serious-minded
friend marched upon the stage and
calmly announced that he did not
know this man Riis whom he was
charged to introduce, and. had never
heard of him. He tells" he went on
with never a wink, that he is the
n<ost distinguished citizen in the

The Jewish Phlanthropic Union in Paris

In an interesting letter from Berlin, dated
January 3Oth, a correspondent writes: Con-

application to the philanthropic task he had
set himself His aim was to SOW seed
which should bear good fruit in the future,
but he did not therefore, as do many "acade-

appeal of those, the relief of whom was not
quite justified by the theories of political
economy. He desired to suppress the wan

economic waste involved in the manner or
