Early New York.

New York city had become one OF
the most important places on the coast
before 1850. Its great advantages
were its fine harbor and the noble riv.
er which emptied into IT. The other
towns on the coast were shut or from
the far west by the Appalachian
mountains or the Alleghenies, which
follow the Atlantic coast at distance
OF 100 TO 200 miles from 1t from Geor-
gia to Maine. But the Hudson river
broke through this barrier and gave
New York easy access to Canada and
the profitable Indian trade. In 1897
the city contained about 1900 inhab-
ltants. about one-third being slaves
1t extended from the Battery to pal
isaded wall. where Wall street now
runs. All above Wall street was In
the country. The population grew to
about $500 In 1870 and about 1900 In
l7JO.

Mschs nlssr Of the ear.

Comparatively few people thoroughly
realize what a delicate and sensitive
structure the human ear really Is. That
which we ordinarily designate 80 Is.
after all. only the outer porch OF q
series Of winding passages which. like
the Hobbies Of great building, lead
from the world without to the world
within. Certain Of these passages con-
tain liquid. and their membranes are
stretched like parchment curtains
across the corridor Of different places
and can be thrown into vibrations or
made to tremble like the head Of .
drum or as the surface Of tambou-
rine does when struck with stick or
with the fingers. Between two or three
parchment-llke curtains chain of very
small bones extends. which serves to
tighten or relax these membranes and
to communicate vibra lions to them. In
the innermost place Of all a row OF
white threads. called nerves, stretches
like the strings Of plano from the
last point to which the tremblings or
thrillings reach and pass inward to
the brain.

Medical Ethics In China.

that Is to cut of small sample and
