MANS WEAKER HALF.

One Side of His Body Always Stronger Than the Other
 The popular belief is that the left side is weaker than the right, and as in all popular beliefs, there is much truth in this. In most cases, says the Grand Magazine, the right arm is decidedly stronger than the left, the bones are larger and the muscles more vigorous.
 When we come to consider the lower limbs, however, we find precisely op- posite state of affairs the left leg Is stronger than the right in the great majority of cases. This want of sym metry is noticeable all through the body. Nine times out of ten we see better with one eye than with the other and hear better with the lett than with the right ear, or vice versa.
 Not only so, an injury to the body-a burn or a cut, for instance-~causes more pain on one side than it would were 1t inflicted on the other. Even diseases attack one side on their first onset in preference to the other. Eczema. varioose veins, sciatica, and even tuberculosis begin, invariably, to manifest themselves on our weaker side A bhstering plaster, too, will provoke an eruption only If applied to the right side in certain individuals; in others, only if applied to the left side.
 The simplest way, apparently, of dis covering which is our weaker side is to observe which side we lie upon by pref erence when in bed, as 1t is certain that we will instinctively adopt the atti- tude which is most agreeable or, rather which causes the least inconvenience; in other words. we will lie upon the side the muscles of white, being more viz | orous, are less sensible to the pressure upon them of the weight of the body. Statistics and observation go to prove that in about three cases out of four il l is the left side which is the weaker giving reason to the popular dictum Curiously enough however, peneumonia it has been noticed, unlike most dis. eases usually attacks at first the right that is to say, the stronger side of thu

CHINESE HIGH COMPLIMENT

CH1NESE HUH COMPDlME MENI,
 Dr. James B. Angell, the president of the University of Michigan, was invlt- ed to dinner at the Chinese Legation in Washington some years ago.
 The doctor sat at the right hand of the Minister. The floor of the dinning room was waxed and slippery and there were no rugs. He endeavored to moved back his chair. It slipped and the digni- fled educator slid under the table.
 He arose much confused, but not a Chinese said a word or gave any sign of having seen the accident. Ten min utes later his Chinese host tried to move back his chair and he, too, slid under the table. He got up and re- sumed Ais seat and none of the Chinese made a sign.
 Then, at regular intervals, every Chinaman around the table slid out of his chair and under the table. The doctor thought they were making game of him and protested.
 My dear sir. said the host, i've are paying you the highest eompli- ment we can. In order that you may not feel embarrassed over the accident we have each met with the same mis- hap, so we are all brothers together.
