THE work OF THE HEART.-One of
the most remarkable things about the
heart Is the amount Of work it does.
Considering the organ as pump
whose task Is to deliver a known
quantity Of blood against a known
head" it is easy to show that In
twenty -four hours a mans heart does
about 124 foot tons Of work. I'm
other words" says contemporary,
III the whole force expended by the
heart in twenty-four hours were
gathered into huge stroke, such a
power would lift 124 tons one foot
from the ground. A similar calcu-
lation has been made respecting the
amount Of work expended by the
muscles involved in breathing. In
twenty-four hours these muscles do
about twenty-one foot tons Of work"

took a seat in a first-class carriage.

tells the story:
A dandy fellow passenger was
much annoyed at Pats presence, and
missing his handkerchief, taxed him
with having picked his pocket. After
recovering his handkerchief, which he
had put in his hat, he made lame
apology, but Pat stopped him with
the remark:

bother about the matter. You took
