A deep cloud Of sorrow lowered over

that an abscess demanded a secondJ

Impromptu Surgery.

In one Of the most fashionable res
taurants in Paris mans life was
saved through the skill and quickness
of one of the guests. 1t appears that
Il man, with three friends, was dining
at one of the small tables when a
piece of meat lodged in his throat and
he found it impossible to get rid of
it. His friends in alarm slapped him
on the back, but the unfortunate man
became black in the face and fell TO
the floor. A surgeon from the German
hospital, who happened to be dining in
the cafe. pushed his way through the
crowd. He saw at once that the man
was dying and that if prompt meas
ures were not taken he would quickly
succumb. He ordered one of the wait
ers to bring him a small funnel such
as is used in bottling>win and then,
without a moments hesitation, took
out a sharp knife, cut the mans throat,
removed the piece of meat and-the
waiter having returned-quickly in
serted the funnel in the opening. The
man was then hastily conveyed to the
hospital, where a silver tube was in
serted in the place of the funnel, and
few hours later he was pronounced
out of danger.

The Longest Dny.

June 81 is the longest day OF the
year, the day when the sun reaches its
northern limit, the tropic of Cancer.
At points on the line of the arctic cir
Gle there is the wonder of the midnight
sun, and many tourists go long dis
tances TO witness the sight. 1t is singu-
lar how accurately the semibarbarous
nations were able TO observe and reck-
on. On Salisbury plain, in England,
may be seen a cromlech erected by the
druids. 1t is a circle of huge stones
which once formed a temple, but the
most interesting part of the structure
is the sacrficial stone, which is a broad,
fat slab so placed that the rays Of the
rising sun strike full upon 1t only on
the Dist Of June. The old guide who
shows the place to visitors tells the
story that young girl once said to
him, 81 suppose you have seen it hun
dreds Of times, haven't you?"

A Peculiar Animal.

Regarding some of the peculiar char
acteristics of that strange link between
birds and beasts, the duck billed platy-
pus of Australia, a writer says: 1T
makes its home like an otter in bank,
tunneling up from the entrance under
water some thirty or forty feet,
which its powerful forearm muscles
make nothing of, to a place where it
can find dry and well drained bur
row. Its food consists chiefly of in
sects, crayfish or yabbess,' which it
bolts, hard shell and all. 1t will stay
from ten to fourteen minutes at a
time under water. searching the mud
and stones for these delicacies with.its
ducklike bill. 1t makes a most fas-
cinating little pet, becoming very tame
and squeaking with delight when fed.
It's antics are a constant source Of
pleasure, though if care is not taken
it will overeat itself, seeming to have
in captivity difficulty in digesting the
hard crayfish shells. Its coat is, like
the mole's, of an unusually silken and
glossy texture"

Bright, cheerful hopeful thoughts
and a strong belief in ones own ability
TO accomplish the thing undertaken are
friends that will insure success. The
ambitious person should learn as early
in life as possible to pick out the
friends and enemies of success, and in
many cases it will be found that the
greatest enemy resides within himself.
Morbid thoughts, for example, are inf
nitely greater hindrances to success
than opposition from outside, and no
health, no beauty, no harmony, no real
success can exist in the atmosphere Of
abnormal melancholy or morbid ideas.
Overcome the enemies to success with
in yourself and you will have done
much toward reaching the goal Of your
ambition.-London Answers.
