to London. BY appearing in q vision to
Rahere, the court jester OF Henry I, he 10
said to have brought about the founding
of st. Bartholomews Hospital. The
ejectment of the 2OOO non-conforming
ministers from the Established Church,
OF which this is the 25Oth anniversary.
appears to have been very popular. prob
ably because the victims were mostly
Presbyterian intruders. There was no
disturbance. except at the city church
of st. Matthew. Friday street. where
some Of the people cried out "Porridge."
which was the Puritan nickname for the
prayer book. Burnet makes the startling
statement that DR.. Sheldon, the Bishop
of London, and builder of the Sheldonian
Theater at Oxford, who had been the
main promoter OF this prosecuting meas

Hittite Lions Unearthed.
From the London Standard.

On the site Of the ancient Karkhemish
the great Hittfte fortress and capital
which commanded the main passage OF
the Euphrates. important discoveries
have been made in the excavations un-
dertaken by the trustees Of the British
Museum. On the top OF the great mound
which marks the acropolis of the town.
the later levels were cleared away over
q considerable area, down to the city OF
Sargon, the Assyrian captor of Kark-
hemish in TIT B. c., which marks the
end of the Hittite kingdom. On the side
OF the great mound, adjoining the river.
Mr.. g. l. Woolley. who was in charge,
discovered a water gate. fianked by two
great lions. and having an approach lined
with bas-reliefs.
In the lower city, on the inland side
Of the mound. he found great quantity
Of stones bearing sculpture and inscrip-
tions. Very considerable additions have
thus been made to the extant examples
Of Hittite sculpture and to the Hittite
inscriptions. Pottery also was found in
large quantities. The sculptures. in ad-
dition to the great lions OF the water
gate, include several Representations Of
ritual or neurological character, which,
though akin to the bas-reliefs of Assyria.
show important differences in subject and
style. In the best examples the work.
manship is OF a higher quality than any
Hittite sculpture hitherto known.

Pensions for Bankrupts.
From London Tit-Bits.


One OF the most remarkable bequests
which have ever been made, and which
certainly has no parallel in this country
is that revealed by the will of the widow
OF a wealthy St. Petersburg jeweler, who
has left fortune of no less than a quar-
ter of a million sterling, which Is to be
devoted 10 the support of bankrupt trad
ers and their daughters who may be des-
titute. Apparently the lady deeply sym
pathized with bankrupts. for in her will
she states that she believes that mer
who have failed suffer from shattered
nerves. and she wishes half the money
TO be expended in erecting sanatorium
10 be used as = convalescent home fol-
victims OF our cruelty competitive age
The remaining half of the widows for.
tune is TO be utilized for providing an
nuities for the daughters OF traders who
have experienced the ordeal of the bank
ruptcy court.
Thus. a man who is obliged to &c
through the unenviable task of telling
his creditors he cannot pay them and
must be marked down a bankrupt car
still console himself with the thought
that at any rate he has a quiet retreat
where he may shut his ears to the male
dictions of his creditors, and in addition
PROVIDE MS uauShterS with bigger an.
nuity. perhaps, than he could have af
forded had he not failed in his business
That is, of course. IL the conditions Of the
will are carried out. But II is not sur.
prising TO learn that the relatives of the
testatr1x have notified their intention OF
disputing the will. They allege that the
document was made when the widow was
suffering from mental alteration. At any
rate. We have not noticed up to the pres.
ent time a desire on the mart of the
charitabiy inclined in this country tc
copy the widows idea and start a British
bankrupts' pension fund. or some simila,
organization.

cation with regard to the toxic constit.
uents Of tobacco smoke which has Just
been conducted by the Lancet
The smoke obtained In pipe. cigarette
and cigar smoking was examined. and as
to the leaf itself IL was found that pipe
mixtures usually contain the largest
amount of nicotine-2.04 to 2.S5 per cent;
that Egyptian and Turkish cigarettes
come next with 1.3S to 174 per cent; vir-
gilman cigarettes, 40 to Leo per cent:
British cigar. l.24 per cent, and Havana
cigar. O.64 per cent.
Small Yield From Cigarette.
The cigarette, whether Egyptian. rur-
kish or American, yielded the least
amount Of its total nicotine to the smoke
produced: the pipe yielded a very large
proportion. in some cases 20 to so per
cent OF the total Of its nicotine to the
smoke reaching the mouth Of the con-
sumer. while the analysis OF cigar smoke
gave intermediate figures.

cipal toxic factor OF tobacco smoke.
It IL suggested. however. that TOO much
Importance has been attached to nicotine
and too little to other constituents Of the
smoke. Among the other constituents
found Is furfurol. q toxic and highly arr-
tating substance, which occurs to the
largest extent In the smoke OF the vir-
ginia cigarette, and to q far SMALLER N1-
tent In the Turkish and Egyp4iaa eleur-
etto. while 1t is practically absAak On the
smoke Of both the cigar and pipe. Eur
furol Is regarded by some authorities q q
toxic constituent OF immature whisky.
Result Of Experiments.
The experiments show that this sub.
stance does not appear In smoke when
the tobacco itself. or the method by
which 1t is smoked. yields q notable guam
tity OF alkaline products. From the cigar,
pipe and practically all Egyptian and
Turkish cigarettes a smoke is produced
containing decided amount Of ammonia
compounds, but no furfurol. while in the
smoke OF the cheap Virginia cigarette
there Is very little ammonia, but a
marked quantity Of furfurol.
It Is suggested that this fact affords
possible explanation Of the cigarette be-
ing q source Of throat trouble, especially
when smoked to excess.

Perhaps In no other period of the

OF safeguarding our youth from immoral
