When a Person Faints.

If a person faints he ought to be laid
down fat on his back. for this will IA
cilitate the return of blood to his head
Indeed, nature has provided for this,
for person who faints win fall down
and soon recover if no one interferes.
On the other hand, person with an
epileptic or cataleptic fit, indicated by
commissions and frothing at the mouth,
ought TO be propped UP so as to facili-
tate the flow Of blood from the head TO
the lower parts of the body. which may
be still further promoted by slapping
the palms Of the hands. Now, l cannot
account for it, but the fact is that all
ignorant people, in an emergency, re-
verse this treatment. A person who
simply faints is carefully supported in
a chair, and the face is piled with cold
water applications, famed, the result
being that the fainting is prolonged
On the other hand, a man who drops in
the street with epilepsy or catalepsy is
invariably laid fiat on his back, which
in some cases is enough to kill him.

All the continents, with the possible

point is 1890 feet below sea level. In
Africa, the lowest point is in the desert
of Sahara, about $50 feet below sea

One View of Music.

There are two ways of regarding
music. says a writer you may re,
gard it as an entertainment. in which
case you will applaud, or you may re.
gard 1t as a sacrament and be silent.
The latter was the way of Sir Thomas
Browne. Even that vulgar and tav-
ern musick.' he wrote. which makes
one man merry, another man mad
strikes in me a deep fit of devotion and
a profound contemplation of the First
Composer. There is something in it OF
divinity more than the ear discovers
1t is a hieroglyphical and Swallowed
lesson of the whole world and crea
lures of God: such melody to the ear
as the whole world we'll understood
would afford the understanding. II
brief, it is a sensible fit of that har
mony which intellectually sounds il
