Gladstone on Disraeli.

G. A. Storey, A. r. A. recorded a
touching incident he witnessed at the
academy banquet of 1881 when a por-
trait for which Beaconsfield had sat to
Millais shortly before his death was
among the exhibits. This unfinished
work, pale and even CHASTITY, was IN
one of the side galleries. Gladstone
catching sight of the picture, went and
stood long in front of it. No
one disturbed him. At the end of tho
feast Gladstone rose and In the finest
and most feeling tone delivered a pan
egyric on the great man who had
passed away. In a voice clear and
sympathetic and full of emotion he told
us of his admiration for the sterling
qualities of the man who, though OPP
posed to him In politics, was in nc
other sense an opponent He spoke as
only one generous in heart and of a
broad and great mind could speak Of
another great man who had passed
away. The speech surpassed anything
ever eard."-London Chronicle.

How He Broke Into Literature.

Frederic Harrison was close friend
of George Eliot, and she often asked
his advice in regard to points of law
that came up in the course Of her sto-
ries She particularly needed legal ad-
vice in a vital part of "Felix Holt"
for. conscientious worker as she was
and as all really great artists are. she
was not content TO makea guess.
Mr.. Harrison listened as gravely to
the presentation of her problem as II
it concerned real individuals. The next
day he sent her carefully and con-
cisely worded opinion, which she used
In her book just as he wrote it. In the
story 1t is ascribed to "the attorney
general" and is referred to as FINAL
authority"
Mr.. Harrison was both surprised
and pleased to see his own words used.
He expected that the novelist would
wish to express his legal opinion in her
own language. Thanks to George
Eliot" he said, with smile. II have
written something that will live for
ever in English literature"

GanQrene.

Gangrene is the death of part Of
the living body. Sometimes 1t results
from an injury, such as burning or
frostbite. or from surgical opera
ton. Sometimes it is the consequence
OF a physical condition, with such
causes as diabetes or senility or en-
boIism. Whatever the cause or what
ever form it takes, it means that the
obstruction to circulation has been so
complete. as to prevent local Nutrition
and to bring about the death of the
part AS impaired circulation is at the
root of the trouble, the treatment must
try to restore the circulation and COM
bat the Inflammation. Local heat is
the best means of restoring the circu-
lation. Hot bottles or warm irriga-
tons or bandages Of hot fiannels may
be used. Gangrene is not matter
for home treatment except under the
constant and watchful care of the ply
stefan, for in many cases operation is
the only means of saving life.

The Foot of the Reindeer.

The foot of the reindeer is most pc
culiar in construction 1t is clOven
through the middle, and each half
curved upward in front. 1t is slightly
elongated and capable Of consider
able amount of expansion. When
glazed on an irregular surface which
is difficult to traverse, the animal con-
tracts the feet into sort Of claw, by
which firm hold is secured. When
moving rapidly the two portions Of the
foot as it is lifting strike together, the
hoofs making a continuous gathering
noise. which may be heard at consid-
cradle distance. 1t is this popularity
Of the feet that makes the reindeer so
sure footed and so valuable in rocky
and uneven country, where almost any
other ANIMAL would prove failure as
a beast Of burden.

eighty glaciers between five square
miles and a few acres in area. The
park Is a rugged mountainous region

with fairly stiff toothbrush in the

This helps greatly to preserve them

is the decomposition of particles Of
food left between the teeth after

lodges these particles, and rinsing the

four or five among them are Islands

they serve merely as stations for the
