Medicine and Law.

Medicine stands in this strange con- trast to law, that while the public is clamoring for the lawyers to advance the lawyers themselves as a class offer the chief resistance The med ical profession constantly outstrips and leads the public imagination in devices to check disease. Although much at the start was due to laymen, the campaign against tuberculosis, against infant mortality, against ma- larial and typhoid levers, is largely captained and manned by doctors, who have the hearty support of the profes- sion as a whole. Of two Rip Van Wrinkles awakening today the physi- clan would find his old methods as rust eaten and useless as his instru- ments. The lawyer, after few hours with new statutes, would feel at home in any of our courts.-G. M. Stratton in Atlantic Monthly.

Vendramin is not only one of the most beautiful residences on the canal in Venice. but it IS closely associated with the history of the city of the doges. It was built in 1441.

It was the scene of great social events under the Arch duke Charles Ferdinand of Austria and his wife. Anne de Medicis. in 1852. and through them the palace has come into the possession of the pres ent owners through marriage. It was here that Richard Wagner died In 1883.

A Cruel Injustice to MaoNab.

One morning at breakfast, when Dominic Thompson, the tutor, was present. Sir Walter Scott was going on with great glee to relate story of the Laird of MacNab. "who, poor fellow. !" promised he, lis dead and gone"
 Why, MT. Scott" exclaimed his good lady, "MacNab's not dead, is he?''
 Faith, my dear" replied Scott, with humorous gravity. If he is not dead they have done him great injustice, for they have buried him."
 The joke passed harmless and unno- ticed by Mrs. Scott, but hit the poor dominic just as he had raised a cup of tea to his lips, causing a burst of laughter which sent half the contents about the table.-Dyer in Great Men at Play"

The goal was reached, the journey end ed. I cannot say-though I know it would sound much more effective the object of my life was attained. That would be romancing rather too bare facedly. I had better be honest and admit straight out that l have never known any man to be placed in such a diametrically opposite position to the goal of his desires as I was at that mo- ment The regions around the north pole-well, yes, the north pole itself had attracted me from childhood, and here I was at the south pole.

shaarina sheen In Syria.

The manner of shearing sheep In Syria and all Asiatic Turkey does nos differ materially from the ancient methods of the people as applied to practically every other vocation. While the sheep industry is one of the oldest in the country, having existed for cen turies in the same pastures where the ancestors of the present herders also tended focks, there does not appear to have been any improvement in the manner of shearing or breeding the sheep. Shearing is still accomplished in the crudest way, the workers al- ways leaving considerable amount Of wool on the animal, while tke fleece removed is cut most unevenly. The shearers frequently cut great holes in the skins of the sheep, which by the use of modern shearing machines could easily be avoided.

Laas of a eaIloninn Hor.a.

Thousands of pictures exist in our galleries showing horses at full gallop with the front legs extended forward and the hind legs extended backward, and no one ever suspected anything wrong with the representations of gal loping horses until Instantaneous pho- tography made visible movements quite beyond the power of the human eye. A series of cinematographic photo graphs of a galloping horse, if shown slowly on the screen, would astonish most people. Each time all the legs were seen off the ground they would be actually folded up under the animals body, and the artistic full stretch gal Top would never once materialize.-Pall Mall Gazette.

Slaves In Old Rome,

In Rome, in the golden age, a laborer cost only $1OO, and sometimes. after a great victory and an influx of captives into the capital, it was possible to buy strong, capable slaves for $5 apiece.

Catiline had a cook that cost him $2,5OO A gardener was worth $500, blacksmith $75O. an actor 5000, a physician $10,OO0.
