A Marvel of Insect Mechanism.

The sting of certain Indian fly Of
fers as marked an example of design
in nature as can well be imagined
When seen through a magnifying glass
1t is found to be composed of three
sharp blades folded into one with
their cutting edges outward and run
ming down to one fine point. When
the fly inserts this up to the hilt In it's
victim the three blades fly apart, and
then it is seen that each inner edge is
a beautiful saw, worked by six sep
arate muscles, so that when with
drawn the instrument rips its way out
with a gush of blood. But now comes
the most curious provision of all. 1t
would not do to fold up these blades
with the blood adhering to them, so
each blade Is provided at its base with
a fine brush of hairs growing out of
an oil gland, which provides an anti
septic secretion to keep the blades
clean.

A quack at a fair near Paris was

British Medical Journal The letter
of the French law against unqualified

TO the indifference of the magistrates

however, was n particularly fragrant

intervene. The quack was therefore
accosted by the guardians of the law.

doctor cut short with an urgent en-
treaty that they should say nothing
about what they had seen, "for," he
said, 'if the people know that 1 am

One strike had been called on him,

And the ball came. He knew 1t was

RAILWAYS IN JAPAN.

One buys a railway ticket IN japan in
iustalments.
The ordinary ticket only enables
one 10 go by train covering the mini
mum distance In the maximum time,
SO an extra express ticket is pur-
chased. which means that the engine
moves a little more quickly toward its
appointed goal.
Next platform ticket must be pro-
cured to enable one TO board the train,
and finally one has TO fight ones way
into first class carriage. Why do all
the passengers in Japan take their lug
gage into the already painfully small
carriage instead Of leaving it in the
van? And why. again. does a nation
that is a password for cleanliness the
world over possess a train service so
shockingly dirty In every detail?
I'VE once In a weak moment looked
into Il station masters room at a large
station. and for pure dirt 1t could have
given points to a dust heap. In the
train carriages the floors are covered
with the dirt Of ages. cigarette ends,

brush and leisurely sweeps all the
refuse into a corner, having first care

him the rubbish and an atmosphere

BANK neposlr GUARANTY.

II would require c0nsummate dod-
ger TO get away from the fact that the
bank depositor. whose money the bank
er loans for profit. is not entitled to
the same security the banker exacts.
The strange part Of the situation Is
that the depositor has been so slow in
opening his eyes to the injustice that
has made him lts victim In times past.
He has been placing the money In
bank for security Ia keeping. when as
matter Of fact security was largely
imaginary, as thousands OF victims Of
bank failures under the free bonding
system are ready to testify Yet the
banker used his money aud profited
from It's use
Discussing recent bank failures and

is not treated IN che light way It was

are beginning TO aee that there may be
some merit in Il. The question is be-
