CHEAP RATE VICTIMS.

'Every reduction in steerage rates
is responsible for lot of dead-broke
Americans floating around in the
streets of Rotterdam and other
steamship lines" said an old trav-
eler. can exodus of impecunious
young men afflicted with wanderlust
is always feature of these compe-
titions in rates. The notice, Twenty
five dollars to Rotterdam or any
other old port appeals to their ven-
turesome spirit, and many young
ster who cannot scrape up two dol
lars above the necessary passage
money and who doesn't know a word
of any language except English is
going to take advantage of the Of
fer. Some of them no doubt work
their way back all right, but more
encounter all kinds of hardships.
During every steerage war American
consuls at foreign ports find enough
charity work to keep them busy"

GREAT MEN OF SCIENCE.

When Charles Darwin commune
Gated to his fellow-scientists his an
nouncement of the famous theory Of
the origin Of species, another inves-
tigator, who had hit upon the same
notion, said: "Let Darwin 60 ahead
with it." Thus he put aside any
ambition he might have had to be
the exponent of theory which was
to command the attention of man
kind. Darwinism might have been
Wallaceism. But Darwin in his eel
ebrated book does not withhold Ell
ther from Alfred Wallace OF any
other person, no matter how great or
small his contribution to the sub
ject, his praise for assistance given.
Alfred Wallace and Charles Dar-
win were men.

Artificial warmth at This season
Csmsrts The Bonds ef the
Family Circle.

The fireplace is no longer the
focus, in the Latin sense, Of the
home. The glow Of the black log
has given place to the black register
that emits from floor or wall the
waves of heat from depths below. 1t
is true that there remain imitation
fireplaces, illuminated with gas logs.
But this artificial pretense has not
even the dramatic quality Of illusion.
1t will not suffice to make the most
willing deceive themselves. The for
est disappears, and in it's stead comes
heated air, fed from the depths of
the mine and supplied with the
groans Of labor too oft dissatisfied.
The, melancholy days have come,
when it is time to order ton of
coal and light the furnace in the
chill cellar.
But, after all, it is this artificial
warmth that makes cheerful the
home in winter and draws closer the
family circle that has been more lax
in its happy bonds during the
months of summer. The season is
here that brings nearer the precious
intimacy of domesticity. The force
of those fine old words, husband and
housewife, recurs with their primi-
tive etymology. Walls and roof of
domestic architecture regain the re-
spect due to the essential.-Wash-
ington Herald.

sTATEsMEN's MECHANICS.

The house has a witty way Of as
similating the names of its members
to their trades. Mr.. McKinnon
Wood, M. P. for Glasgow, is a tim
ber merchant, and Sir Edwin Corn
wall, M. P. for Bethnal Green, a
coal merchant, and on their election
were promptly linked together with
the fancy names of Wood and Coal.
Again, Sir John Dewar, NJ. P. for
Inverness-shire, who is g member Of
the well-known Perth blenders, is
"White Label" One Of. the most
genial of men is Sir Thomas Roe,
M. P. for Derby. He has been a
wood merchant in the Midlands and
honorable gentlemen delight to know
him as Tommy Sawdust."

who come out east expecting to find

is that Of the Australian aborigines,

Disciples of Esoulspius In This Ace
Rely Upon Thelr brains
for Prestige.

Esculspius was always represent
ed with staff, . symbol Of the sup
port needed by the sick; around it
was entwined the ancient symbol Of
eternity, the serpent. Throughout
succeeding ages physicians carried a
stick, which during the middle ages
was usually surmounted by a small
metal box containing aromatic herbs
which the doctor shifted as he con-
templated hhis patient, to counter
act infection and the universal
stencil of TIE sickroom then preva-
lent. Later on the stick shrunk into
a cane, and during the regency had
above the handle an eyeglass, sur
vey of the invalid through which
must have conferred an ineffable look
of wisdom and profundity. In
early Victorian days climax Of bad
taste was reached in the use Of
carved ivory or bone skulls as cane
handles, an example of the ethical
advertising of the period. Finally
the doctors cane has followed his
black coat and high hat into OBJ
livion, and more and more must the
practitioner rely upon his brains for
prestige.-New York Medical Jour-

Mozart's age at the time Of his
death December s, 1791) was IS
years and ten months. 1t is impos-
sible to say what the great mu-
sician's religious beliefs were, if he
had any. Holmes, in his Life Of
Mozart" says that he refused to
have any minister or priest at his
bedside, and that he was buried
without religious rites. The place OF
his burial is unknown. He was
buried near Vienna, in an unmarked
grave, and when, 20 years or 90
later, the attempt was made to find
his resting place it failed.
