Sentimental Surgery.

A party of college students. celebrat Ing a football victory In New York. ran Into an unexpected difficulty in the shape of some policemen, and after the smoke of the battle had cleared away. as the political orators say, It was necessary to cart one of the young men to a hospital and fix up his head.
 The young surgeon In charge of such cases put the collegian on the table and looked him over. He had long gash in his forehead. The surgeon cleansed the wound and began to sew 1t up. He labored for half an hour and then burst into the office of the doctor in charge.
 "I can't do anything with that young chap in there" he said.
 What's the matterT" asked his su. perior.
 "why. every time put in a stitch he pulls It out and says: She loves me- and when put In the next one be pulls that out and says: She loves me not '"-Saturday Evening Post.

How to Tell Pure MfIk.

When milk is skinned or watered 1t Is of thin bluish color. To cover this defect coloring is resorted to. If you are suspicious of your milk supply, let sample of it stand In a clear glass, say twelve hours. Then carefully ob- serve the watery and the creamy layer. If the lower layer Is yellow artificial colorlng matter has been employed.
 Cream low or deficient in butter fat may also be detected. A little vinegar added to the heated cream or milk pro- duces in the curd distinct orange col or If an anlllne dye has been used to give the cream apparent richness. If caramel or annatto has been used the curd will have a brownsh color. The curd of the pure cream should be near ly white.
 To detect the use of a preservatiye keep the milk in warm place for forty-elght hours. If the sample Is still sweet at the end of this time the presence of preservative Is strongly indicated.

and but for the trouble in Achin hall Of the force would be ample for keep ing order.
 Ine Achlnese are good fighters and, being Moslems, are fearless In battle Death under these circumstances they are told Is but translation from this world to Paradise. Naturally they are fanatics and carry on a guerrilla war fare. Their fayorte mode of attack Is by ambuscade; they usually devote their attention to cutting out conveys, blowing up trains, and by these crude. unexpected tactics are able to keep the Dutch forces constantly worn out. Aside from these secret attacks the Achinese fight fairly, and when they capture Dutch soldiers treat them hu- namely and usually send them back to their own camp under escort.
 Still the war continues The Achin- ese are no nearer subjugation than they were thirty years ago. In addi tion to the army constantly kept Ia the Dutch East Indies. the Netherlands Government maintains a special fleet of warShips to patrol the AchIn coast. Piracy has, indeed. been relegated by the Achinese to the limbo of lost arts, but independence Is still theirs. The war In Achn Is no longer war of conquest; it Is war of extermination.

Jf her, nobody to wait on her, and as fo- a drive, she hadn't even been In ,arriage since her masters funeral be- lore the war.
 The contrast could hardly have been greater, you see. They didn't know each ether by sight, but they had mu- tuaI acquaintance who was quite famil- ias with both. He was Uncle Weaver's nephew, and very fond of the pretty young auntie; and as the old auntle often came to his home for days work, be was a good friend of hers tao. for Rob had way of making friends with everybody.
 He lived about half way between the big house and the shanty, In his own pleasant home with father and mother and little sister Marie, and he was as dear a boy as ever went coastlng, but be sometimes-once h long willie made mistakes.
 One day not far from Thanksgiving the young auntie fell H. Not danger ons!y so, but enough to make her fever lsh and wretched and spoil her appe- tite and fade the pretty pink out of her cheeks. Uncle Weaver was so wor- ried he didn't know what to do first. He kept the telephone busy till he had two doctors a trained nurse and Rob's mamma all in auntie's room at once, and a telegraph messenger waiting downstairs until he should find out whether 1t was necessary to send for her family And even after the doc tors had told him there was no cause for alarm and had gone serenely away, Uncle Weaver pulled mamma into. the other room to whisper, 1T don't like her symptoms, Annabel. She hasn't. eaten morsel to-day. She is slcker than they think" Mrs. Towne laughed re assurlngly, and patted her brother's nervous hand. told him that Lille would be as good as new In day or l two. Then she went to fix a lunch that 1 auntie must try to eat.

Now and again one of the hundreds of thousands of capable men In com paratively humble positions rises Into prominence because of public interest in something with which he may be con. nected. There Is the case of A. Pappa, the head pilot of the Suez canal, who has taken many ships through the mar
 row strait without attracting public at
 tention. But he steered the dry dock Dewey through the canal, bulk so large that it practically filled the whole width of the waterway at the depth re- quired to float It, and did not let It touch bottom once. Now the naval of flcer In command has mentioned the old Greek In his report, praising him in un- measured terms. There is many mute. inglorious Milton doing his singing or hers with a shovel or plane, needle or a broom, who de serve all that can be said of heroes or heroines.

In Defense of Tobacco,

Sturgeon, the preacher, Is said to have said that 1t was his habit to smoke cigars ito the glory of God" but now we find serious people writing te say that the use of tobacco in any form is improper for clergymen of any denon. inatlon. One wonders why, seeing that the moderate use of the herb is asso- clated neither with evil passions nor with heretical doctrines.
 The North American Indians whs were the earliest smokers known to history, always brought out the pipe If not to beat the tomahawk Into the plowshare at least to dwell together Ia unity until further notice.
 And 1t Is an lndlsputable fact that great teachers have often been great smokers. It was amid clouds of ts- bacco smoke" that Tennyson set t. work, "In Memorlam," to reconcile re- ligion with science; 1t was in . similar If not quite so dense an atmosphere that Carlyle assgned the Deity and the devil their respective roles In the his tory of the French revolution. These precedents should suffice. and if they do not, there is the example of Kings ley to be quoted. He was a parish priest and his standards and ideals were high. but he also enjoyed his plps when his days work was done and did not hesitate to say so.-London Mall.

Ethnologists say, as the res lit of their observations, that the racial diff ferences which exist among mankind are very slight once we get below the surface. Taking humanity as whole, 1t is said that one man will fight as bravely as another up to a certain point. that courage Is common attribute of all mankind and that fundamental ethi- cal considerations are respected to the same extent by all the tribes of men. It is found, In short, that the difference between the man of one nation and the man of another nation Is not essential but temperamental. This conclusion re- ceiyes frequent confirmation. In the steamship disaster of the Spanish coast a few weeks ago the obvious deficiency was not lack of courage upon the part of the officers and crew but a lack of discipline and self-control. The Latin temperament is not the temperament for sudden and menacing emergencies. It Is the temperament of impulse, of en- thusiasm, of ebulllent bravery. It lacks the self-poise and imperturbability of the northern character. Take them man for man and It Is probable that the crew of the Sirio would have charged a for forn hope with greater intrepidlty than an equal number of Scandinavians or Englishmen or Americans or Germans would have done. That Is because the Latin temperament lacks the calculat- Ing quality which estimates danger. But confronted with a peril In which the spectacular and emotional elements uere wanting tue Italian saiiars los. their heads. They went to pieces" to use a colloquialism. not from lack of courage but from temperamental inabil- ity to confront the unexpected. We may say. In other words, that the Latin temperament Is not the seafaring tenn perament. When matched against the Teutonic races on the ocean the Latins have gone down to defeat The lnvin- clble armada strewed its shattered tim bers on the shores of the British Isl ands. The nayies of Napoleon were forever undoing at sea the victories of that matchless commander ashore. The galleys of the Romans were more trans ports than war vessels. The Latin fights and fights valiantly, but he pre- fers to fight men instead of wind and wave, and he prefers to fight men on land Instead of on the sea. But this, as we have pointed out. is no impugnment of his courage; It Is merely a phase of his temperament. The temperate zone breeds men of slower imagination but O. consequently greater sang froid than are bred in warmer climes. The north excels in steady achievement and daunt- less will; the south is pre-eminent In esprit, In art and imagination. At the bottom, however. the Latin and the Teuton are equals. Their superficial differences can be faid to climate and environment.

KEEP A GAMBLERS SCHOOL.
Monte Carlo Managers Train Their
 Croupiers Most Methodica11y.

trOupters Most Methodica11y. The Monte Carlo casino trains an its own croupierS. and very rigorous that training Is. When an applicant Is ia. vorably considered for training he has to come up for medical examination After thls examination the recruit to the croupler'S chair comes up for six hours training every day in the school which Is situated at the back of the ca sino, provided that he can prove he has been resident In the principallty of Monaco for at least a year.
 Throwing money Is one of the most important Items of the curriculum, for It Is imperative that a croupier shall be able to throw a handful of money so that 1t will pitch with unfalling precis- ion on any spot on the table. To throw money quickly and so that It does not pitch on end and roll Is not so easy as It seems and It Is generally three weeks before the young croupler satisfies hls trainer that he Is proficient in this part.
 Now comes the most difficult part of the training, learning to reckon money mechanically. The croupier must never count; If he did the slow progress of the game would try the patience of all the players. He must become verita. ble ready reckoner and this, of course, only comes by practice. But to prove to what high state this reckoning can be brought 1t may be said that before A croupier passes to the casinao trained staff he Is able to tell the value of the coins In his hand simply by the feel Of them-that is to say. he could pick up number of coins and without paus- Ing tell you their value.
 Every day each pupil Is made to sit as croupier at table around which are gathered his fellow pupils, who start playing with metal disks of sizes and values equivalent to the coins used at the tables This test Is a trying one for the budding croupier. Everyone does his best to 1uster him, the disks spin across the cloth and if his mind does not take In the proper values and he loses hls head he knows that his prospects are in jeopardy.
 Once a croupler becomes proficient he can, when drafted into playing saloons, hold his post for a great many years. but as he only receives S360 per anHum as a roulette croupier he Is not able to save much. Nevertheless, he is weil looked after. for If he becomes III he has his medical attendance free.-De- troit Tribune.
