Helping Out the Porter.

From London Opinion.
The porter was greatly perplexed. AT
High Polsover a lady with a lorgnette
entered the train. She was a middle
aged. tall, angular. tailor-made woman.
and she looked sternly at the CONNER
cial traveller in the seat opposite
through her lorgnette. Before seating
herself she opened the carriage window
and sent it down with bang. At His
don Cross another woman came in.
She had fluffy hair and an appealing
look in her blue eyes. She sat down and
glanced at the open window and shiv-
cred pathetically: then she looked at
the commercial traveller.
Il shall be frozen to death" cried the
fluffy haired lady.
IF this window lis closed l shall suf-
focate!" cried the other woman.
The porter opened his mouth. He
started to raise the window. Then he
retreated. Dazed. he turned appeal
ingly to the commercial traveller. Both
the women also turned to the CONNER
cial traveller. That gentleman rose,
passed by the ladies, opened the door to
the platform and went out, followed by
the porter.
And what. sir" said the porter,
would you say as 'ow 1 should do. sir?"
It's quite simple" said the CONNER
cial traveller. Leave the window as 1t
is, open, till one lady is frozen to death {.
then close it and SURROGATE the other.
I'm going forward for the rest of the
trip"

THE ABOLITION OF RUINS.
French Engineers at Work Building
Up Old Walls.
From the Literary Digest.


Ruins are doubtless very picturesque;
but. If the French engineers are to have
their way. that country, at least, will
have no more of them. They have dis
covered a method of supporting crumbling
cathedrals with concrete in such a way
as to make. them as good as new, if not
somewhat better. A description of the
way in which the Cathedral of Reims has
just been preserved from ruin is contrib
uted to La Nature paris, May - by
Charles Henri Besnard. Says this writer:
"Once mtre has REINFORCED concrete
shown how flexible is its use and what a
part it may play in The delicate task Of
preserving historic monuments.
1.-The facade of the magnificent Cathe-
dral Of Reims was in an alarming state.
The central rose had assumed, under a
formidable weight. disquieting buckle,
the great front connecting the two tow
ers having saggeu so that the ornament
on the top Of the triangle was 30 inches
lower than the normal
This being the case. Mr.. Paul Cont,
chief architect OF historic monuments. be-
ing charged with the difficult task OF re-
storing the cathedral, bethought himself
to use REINFORCED concrete to support the
front and relieve the rose window by
forming truss between the two towers.
A platform In the rear supports
two great arms. also of REINFORCED con-
crete, which hold the great front i'm its
upright position and prevent it's falling
backward. as had been feared.
when We think of the enormous weight
(more than 100 tons) that rests on this
truss, whose members are only three
inches thick. we realize the prodigious re-
sistance of REINFORCED concrete.
This work. which does the greatest
honor to the talents of Paul Cont, shows
at the same time in what a favorable
light REINFORCED concrete is now regard
ed by the commission of historic monu-
ments, and how it proposes to effect their
restoration. How many controversies
there have been on the subject. Some
wish to reconstruct everything complete
ly. while others would leave them to fall
into ruin, supporting them meanwhile by
means of props.
"Re-enforced cement comes to our aid
by furnishing prodigious strength, flexi-
bility and indefinite resistance to all de-
structive agents."

Medical Experiments on Animals.

From the Atlanta Monthly.
The ancient physicians believed that
the arteries contained air: that. indeed.
is the meaning of the word artery Ga
len proved that they contained blood by
cutting them in living animals: there
was no other way OF settling this funda-
mental fact, for in the dead body the
arteries are quite empty. The circula-
ton of the blood was demonstrated by
Harvey through experiments on dogs.
The capillaries connecting the arteries
and veins were first seen by Malpighi
In the lung of living frog. II is evil
have been made in any other way. The
nineteenth century has greatly advanced
our knowledge of the wonderful pump
ing and pipeline system within our
bodies. We now know the speed OF the
blood current. its volume and it's force,
and have fair idea OF the nervous mech
anism which controls ii. To study these
problems it has been necessary to attach
the most varied physical apparatus to the
heart and blood vessels of living animals
it will, however. reassure the reader to
learn that to be of real value these ex-
periments must be conducted under an
esthesia. Without them we should not
have the faintest clue to the successful
treatment of patients suffering from
heart disease
In the study of the physiology of res
piration little can be learned from the
observation of living and healthy men
that does not need confederation through
experiments on animals. AS instances I
may mention the demonstration that the
aeration of the blood takes place I'm the
capillaries of the lungs; the apparently
simple facts that we cannot live without
oxygen and that air which has been once
breathed is poisonous: the action OF the
muscles of respiration, and the nerve
supply which directs them. Not one 81
these points could have been investigated
save by the sacrifice Of a number of ami
mails. The whoie~subject OF artificial
respiration, so important in the resusci-
tation of asphyxiated human beings. has
been and still is in process OF discovery
from experimentation on the lower ami
mails.
