Physical Education.


From the Knoxville Journal.
The man or woman who would train the
mental faculties without any reference to
the physical, shows a faulty qualification
for the work in which he or she may be
engaged The mind may be ever so well
trained and stored with knowledge of the
books; but unless there Is behind it a rea-
sonably strong body, life runs the risk of
being failure; If not that, an existence
of pain that serves as a limitation upon
its POSSIBILITIES. 1t is species of cruelty to
educate the mind at the expense of the
body. Better let a child grow up into man
hood or womanhood with an inferior edu-
cation than with a better education of the
mind and body weakened in the effort.
The fact that SO many men in this coun-
try who have succeeded in business and in
professional and public life have been the
sons of farmers, whose early life has been
spent out of doors, has been a subject of
remark; may it not be accounted for on the
ground that in their boyhood their physique
was developed, so that in after life, besides
their mental requirements they had strong
bodies with which to do the work they
have so successfully performed? This is
not only possible, but very probable.

MADSToNEs.
Of Some Use Because Absorbent-Clay
Pipe Makes a Good One.
From the Medical Brief.

From the Medical Brief
Physicians often asked whether
there really is any virtue in what are called
madstones. One of them declares that these
stones of value but that they would be
of more value if their limitations were I'M
derstood.
There is no particular variety of stone
or substance which may be designated
exclusively as the maidstone" he says.
Il have seen many of them, so called, and
no two were of exactly the same compost
ton, geologically considered.
"Madstones act on the same principle
that a blotting paper does when absorbing
ink. and there is nothing that makes a
better one than baked pipe clay. new
clay pipe. procurable for one cent at nearly
any store where tobacco is sold cannot be
great it's reputation.
The action can be clearly demonstrated
by placing common dry red brick in con-
tact with the margin of q puddle of water
and noticing what capillary attraction will
accomplish. Therefore, to be efficient, the
only necessity is for the stone to be porous
and have strong adhesive and absorbent
qualities. Nothing mysterious about it.
Il have seen several that appear to be
connections, either vesical, renal or hillary,
and were found in the bladder. kidney or
liver Of some animal-those taken from the
deer supposed to be the best.
when person is bitten by reptile or
dog supposed to be mad and the porous
stone applied to the wound, the blotting
paper action begins, and the blood, saliva
from the mouth Of the animal and what
ever poison these fluids contain will nat
urally, by capillary attraction, be absorbed
by and into the substance applied no mat
ter what name you may give it.
1.-The saying that If a stone sticks the
wound is poisonous and If it does not take
hold there is no venom present is untrue.
If the stone is clean and dry it will adhere
when moisture is within reach till it be-
comes saturated
For instance, new red brick will absorb
one pint of water. After the venom has
been taken into the circulation the mad
stone is worthless; but as the victim is
usually filled with whisky or alcohol at
the same time the stone is being used the
spirits may counteract the effect of the
poison.
Il know of a stone which has a wide
reputation and makes good living for
the family owning it. They never let it
go out of their sight, and when the victim
cannot be taken to the stone one member
of the family can be hired to take the stone
to the victim. In addition to travelling ex-
penses they charge So for the applica ton
and 50 extra for each hour that the stone
sticks.
This stone is busy a large part of the
time. Not long since the stone held to a
mans leg for over one hundred hours yet
the man died. His life could have been
saved if dependence had not been placed
entirely in the stone"

TOWN GOES TO SHELTER.
All Of Its Houses Built of Bricks Of
Gold and Silver Ore.

From the Mexican Herald.
One reads of romantic castles of silver
and palaces of gold, but they are the
dreams of fiction-now they have discov-
cred something as strange on the map OF
MexicA The buildings of a whole town
have been bought at SO much ton. based
on assays from the adobe walls, which give
gold and silver values. This town is Gu.
anajuato's suburb. TeDetapa, at a value OF
about $4,000 Mexican currency.
The value of this little town was revealed
when the Mexican Central decided to build
into the city of Guanajuato and to estab-
fish a station there.
1t was found necessary to tear down
about three hundred buildings which had
been built of the shines produced by the
grinding of ores from the numerous mines
of the district. Straw was mixed with the
slime to make the adobe bricks.
When 1t became known that the Central
would have to tear down these houses an
enterprising ore-buying company asked for
permission to assay ore taken from the
buildings. This was granted. and samples
were picked from the walls at various
heights and various sides of the build
ings, the assays running in value from So
to S2i a ton in gold and silver. The values
averaged about So gold a ton
AS the buildings were built in various
bonanza epochS it was found that the vail
ues varied to a large extent. For instance,
a wall one side of house would assay
a low value. whereas a wall on the other
side. built at an earlier or later time.
would assay a high value A mans kitchen
might assay sixty cents ton and his par
lor $50.
That the walls are found to contain moro
gold than silver values is due to the fact
that the old patio process of treating the
ores was more effective in extracting silver
than gold values and the shines left were
richer in gold than silver. 1t will be harder
to build sue ha town in the future, as tho
camp is now fitted out with modern applf-
ances for treating ores.

The Two West Points.
,rrir Schaff in Atlantic Monthly

Gen. Norris Schaf in Atlantic Monthly.
The sensations of the new cadet when, at
ter the climb from the boat landing, he
finally reaches the Plain-those first sensa-
lions linger a long while. There are two
West Points-the actual West Point and
the overarching, spiritual one, of which the
cadet only becomes conscious about the
times he graduates. The determinate West
Point that is to be his master for four
years, and the shaper of his destiny, meets
him at the top of the slope with ominous
silence. He hears no voice. he sees no por-
tentous figure; but there is communicated in
some way, through some medium, the pres
ence of an invisible authority, cold mex
orable and relentless Time never wears
away this first feeling; it comes back to
every graduate on returning to West Point,
let his years and his honors be what they
may. And perhaps it Is just as well that It
be so; that there is one place left in our
country where vanity of asserted ancestry
and the too frequent arrogance of specuia-
tive and fortuitous commercial leadership
find chill.

Stolen Silver That Was Never Missed.

From the London Daily Chronicle.
An unsupported series of robberies carried
out twenty thirty years ago mas come to
light as result of big find of hidden sil-
yer at Messrs. Mappin & Webb's oxford
street premises. The building is about to
be pulled down for reconstruction, but be-
fore handing it over to the housebreakers
the firm decided to do a part of the de-
struction themselves. and to this the re-
ma rkable discovery Is due. The top story
has been used as a silver factory and tho
dust that has slipped through the cracks
in the floor is so full of silver filings that
it Is to be smelted so that the precious
metal may be recovered. The ton OF dust
thus removed and the flooring which will
be burned are expected to yield several
hundred pounds worth of silver.
1t was while some of Messrs. Mappin 81
Webb's workpeopre were engaged in tear
ing up the flooring to remove the valuable
dust that they noticed number o. brown
paper parcels, from which corners of silver
articles were projecting. Members of the
firm were at once summoned, and the re-
moval of more boards revealed 80 parcels,
all neatly wrapped up as If for customers.
and their contents only visible where mice
had gnawed the paper. Two large tables
are piled high with the silver ana plated
goods recovered in this remarkable man
ner The articles number many hundreds
and are estimated at a value of st least
a6O0. They comprise teapots, coffee pots,
biscuit boxes. cruets and leather cases OF
spoons and cutlery.
1.-The designs and marks show that they
are at least twenty years DID, said q
member of the firm. land we have decided
that the goods must represent a series or
pilferings by one of our employees during
the ten years that the top floor was used
as lumber room. Since then it has been
used as silver factory for twenty years.
and it would be impossible Tor any one to
have regular access to such hiding place,
so we are able to fix on the period of the
thefts pretty accurately. Evidently one OF
our workpeople began taking small parcels
of goods and hiding them till he could
