Disease Scents.

Every disease almost has its pecul.
lar odor," said a doctor. This odor
helps us greatly in diagnosis.
"Gout imparts to the skin a smell
precisely like whey. Diabetes causes
a sweet, honey-like smell. Jaundice &C.
casions a smell Of musk. Smallpox
has very strong and hideous smell.
1t is like burning bones. Measles has
a smell as Of fresh plucked feathers.
"The fevers have the most distinc-
tive odors. The odor Of typhus is
ammoniacal; that of intermittent is
like fresh brown bread hot from the
oven; that of typhus is musty, recall
Ing to the mind old, damp cellars; that
Of yellow fever is like the washings
Of dirty gun barrel.
$50, you see, to speak of a doctor
seeming our disease is not to use n
mere figure of speech"

from his pocket. At first he had re-
course to all kinds of safety chains;
then one morning he took no precau-

himself to be robbed. At night, on
returning from his business, he took
up the evening paper; he uttered an
exclamation Of delight. A watch had
exploded in mans hands. The VIC

THE RIVER NILE.
Ancient Greeks and the Process o.!
Sterilixing Water.

The ancient Greeks already recon-.
mended the use of sterilized water
Rufus of Ephesus, In the first century
Of this era, taught that "all water
from rivers and ponds is bad exccp
that from the Nile. Water from riycr5
which flow through unhealthy soil.
stagnant water and that which cGvs
near public bathing places is harmful.
The best water is that which has beeu
boiled in baked earthenware vessels,
cooled and then heated a second tiii.c
before drinking"
This hygienic prescription Was in
tended both for healthy and sick peo-
pie, since 1t was applied to the armies:
During marches and in camps pits
must be dug successfully from the
highest point to the lowest level of the
place. These holes should be lined
with clay such as is used for making
pottery and the water should be made
TO percolate through it. The water will
leave all its impurities in these pits"
1t may he inquired how the ancient
Greeks, knowing the processes of stcr.
llization and filtration of water which
they applied to that of the most limpid
rivers, should have drunk without pre-
cautions the water of the Nile, which
our microscopes allow us to declare
Sound" but which is in appearance
the most worthy Of suspicion of all
and is so muddy, so yellow, that it re-
sembles wine.-Gazette des Faux.

ROYAL SCHOLARSHIPS.
Kings Who Turned to Teaching to
Make Living.

Make a Living.
In the early part of the life of King
Christian IN. of Denmark there was
no prospect of his ever becoming the
ruler of that country. With this in
view he became schoolmaster at the
German university of Halle.
Being too poor to keep servant, the
Dowager Czarina Dagmar Of Russia,
one of his daughters, used to help her
mother to Go the household work and
take care of the younger children
During this period there were King
Frederick VII. and several others in
the direct line of succession that stood
before Prince Christian; but by sue
cession of deaths that occurred, he be.
came the heir apparent, and after the
death of King Frederick VII. in 1868
he was proclaimed King Christian IN
of Denmark
Another instance of a similar nature
is that of Louis Philippe. During the
time he was exiled from France, then
being the Due de Charities, he became
a teacher of mathematics and geogra-
ply in Switzerland. About thirty-six or
thirty-seven years afterward, on Aug
9, 1880, he was proclaimed King Louis
Philippe of the French.-London An

while the precious metals are weighed
by troy weight which has only $3.50
grains to the pound.

ers or an ounce Of silver? An ounce of
