Cured by a Herring.

1--WE old fashioned Hollanders be-
lieve In temperance" said Mynheer
Closh. when a man gets drunk in my
country he must never show himself IN
public, but get to bed and sleep it of
before he is discovered. To be caught
intoxicated would injure his CONNER
cial or financial standing" Mynheer
Closh added: by the way. you Ameri-
cans seem TO have all kinds OF temper
nnce advocates and whisky cures, but
the country is full of drunkards. Why
not try the Dutch remedy? Nothing
tould be simpler. The good wife IN
Holland whose husband becomes a sot
and nonsupport buys a quart OF whis-
Ky or schiedam and soaks in It for a
week or ten days a smoked herring;
then strains the liquor, puts II in a
nice bottle and presents Il TO her lord
and master. OF course he is delighted.
He thinks himself forgiven and be-
lieves himself once more a man. After
three or four drinks out OF that bottle
the very sight OF n glass Of liquor so
nauseates him that he would rather die
than tackle II. The results are really
worth the small expenditure. Many a
drunkard has been cured by a her.

The Measure Of Liaht.

In order to understand the measure
ment of light as to quantity it is nee
lessary to study the measurement Of IL
Illumination. Taking the candle as the
standard light source and considering
the horizontal rays only, the intensity
of the illumination which it can pro-
uuce will depend upon the distance Of
the surface from the fame. At one
foot distance a surface In vertical po-
sltion-that is, perpendicular to the
rays-will have a certain brilliancy or
intensity. At two feet distance the
surface will have, according to the
law Of inverse squares, one-quarter the
Intensity, at three feet one-ninth Of
the intensity, and so on. To obtain
unit Of intensity, therefore, 1t is neces-
Bary TO use a unit OF distance in con
hection with the standard light source.
When the English system Of measure
ment is used one foot is taken for the
unit distance-that Is. the illumination
produced ON a surface one foot from
the candle is taken as the unit and is
called a foot candle" An illumina-
fion Of two foot candles is tfen the
illumination produced upon a surface
by two candles at a distance of one
foot.-Engineer

child's Supreme Faith.

ITO the Dear God In Heaven
Please make mother better She is
Mrs. - of Huskisson street"
This exquisltely touching, supremely
trustful little note in a childish scrawl
was found in the malls Of hard, old,
commercial Liverpool recently. 1t was
written, 1t was found later, by a wee
little girl who had barely learned to
make her letters and spell, but every
character was distinctly formed and
every word was correctly spelled.
The callous old postofflce employee
who first handled this petition that
puts to shame 900 out OF every 1000
prayers delivered in the churches was,
It is needless to say, so deeply affected
that he could hardly read the address.
After a conference with his fellows the
postal clerk took the soul touching
appeal to the principal newspaper in
the city instead Of to a minister.
The editor verified the accuracy OF
the little ones tender petition and then
took all possible steps TO act as the
agent of God IN relief for the sick
mother. The child's trusting plea re-
celved still further realization when
the woman began to improve as soon
as she heard OF the wondrous faith Of
her wee daughter and was soon well.

Twas Ever Thus.

Just as the train was pulling out OF
the station a breathless commuter
swung himself upon the platform OF
the last car at a station some thirty
minutes from New York. He carried
O green cloth bag. such as is affected
by young lawyers. and one large vol
ume OF an encyclopedia was under
his arm.
He sank into a seat and, with a deep
sigh, opened the book. He lost no time
IN finding bis place, but he seemed far
from satisfied. Soon he turned in great
evaporation to his neighbor aAd re-
marked:
''Now. wouldn't that Jar your I've
been paying for this encyclopedia for
the past two years and never had occa-
sion to use II before. A new client, a
big tanner, is going to call on me this
morning. and wanted to read up the
subject OF tanning before reached the
city. So l snatched the volume with
the letter T while eating breakfast and
incidentally ran five blocks to catch my

there. Just take a look at that" he
exclaimed, pointing to this simple

Effect of ImsuIna.lon.

Imagination has a great deal to do
with some cases OF Sickness" said a
doctor In ST. Joseph's hopsital. quoted
In the Philadelphia Record. There
WAS a woman who used TO come here
regularly, complaining that she had
swallowed a pin and that II was stuck
In her throat hurting her dreadfully.
Week after week we assured her that
we could find no pin, but still she
came. At last we determined 10 sat
isfy her, so we told her to open her
mouth wide and shut her eyes. Then
we placed a pin between a pair OF
forceps and ran it down her throat.
After fooling around awhile we drew
It out and declared that we had at
last succeeded in extracting the trou-
blesome pin. She got up, declared that
she felt better and went away. l saw
her later, and she declared that the
pain in her throat had entirely disap-
peared."
