THK NATIONAL MAGAZINE

Another fas glimpse of the famous Latia Quartier of Paris is to be fouod in the leading art.cie of the January | National Magaziue entitled “ The Ameri | ean Art Student ia Paris.” It ie weli sllus- | trated with etadio scenes, and describes | the Bohemian life of the great art centre

with rare interest. In “American Res taurant Types,” Mr. Joe M. Chapple very j cleverly gives us some rough aod ready aketches of how we, a @ race, perform the epitome of our civilization, the “quick june dinner. Mr. ‘souie F. Grant has jJJustrated the article with @ half dozen or so strikingly effective peo and ink sketches. Rather the most notable article in the current iseue is “The Paris Morgue,” by Henry Haynie, the well-known foreign correspondent. Mr. Haynie has handled his theme inquite the proj er WAY» furnish- ing us on extraordinarily interesting presentation of an pousual subject, The photographs whieh scconpany the text were ovtelned only through the permission of the Freacu government, and have never before been reproduced. A short numorous story of one off the Grand Banks is told by Winthrop Packard in his article “The Codding of Two Codgers. A very strong | piticle on the present ager and social

donduion of the Dominion is that

und@e thé beadiog “Imperial Canada,”

by Charles Aubrey Eaton. Another

illustrated article on @ very time-

ly topic is “Hawaii and Annexation,” by

Professor George H. Barton, ofthe Mass-

achusetts Institute of Technology, who spent several years on these islands for

geological research purpo:es. The great religious narrative,“Christ and His Time,” by Dallas Lore Sharp, draws to @ close in

the January issue. The last two illustrat. ed chapters will very neturally exceed all

others in interest and forze,as they deal

with (he great consummation and tragedy of Christ’s life. The most noteworthy short story of the namber is one hy Octave Thanet entitled, “ Two Gold Hunters.” giving a stirring por- trayal with plot of wiid boar hunting io the South. That very clever trio of ham~ orous writers, Tom Ha!!, Winthrop Pack- ard and Ellis Parker Butler contribute their ueual entertaining short sketches in the “Twixt Smiles and Tears” department. The other regu’ar monthly departments are“Clab Women and Their Work” (io

which Mrs. Ellen M. Henrotin contributes thie month a paper on Children’s Litera-~ tare), ‘fThe National Question Class” and *Let’a Talk it Over,” the publishers’ go sip, The W. W. Potter Co ,91 Bedford

NOURISHING PART OF MEAT.

The only nutrient portion of meat, we are told by “Modern Medicine,” is the eolid part, Hence beef tea, although sitncu’*ttng, hag no food talue. Says this Journal: “The only portion of the flesh of an anima) which 1s possessed of rea! nutrisive value is that part which has been alive and active before death. These living structures are not solvble, if they were, a9 animal which happene4 +, fa);

into the Wate? Wou.u dissolve like a lump ef ager. During life there is a portion of nutritive material in solution in cir culation in the body. After death this small amouot of soluble food ‘material is rapidly converted into excrementious matter, and as the ekiv, kidneys, and Jungs cease their action, these poisoning substances rapidly accumulate within the body, the molecular or cell-life of the body continuing some hours after death, “Jt thus appears that beef tea as a french physician remarked, is ‘a veritable solution of poisons.’ The only portion of the flesh which has any nutritive value is that which is thrown away in making the beef tea or extract. The popular faith in beef tea as a concentraied nourishment has, however, become so thoroughly fixed and rooted that some time will be required to rid the world of this erroneous idea, but it was highly important that informa- tion upon the subject should be dissem- inated as rapidly and as widely as sible, for there is no doubt that many os are annually sacrificed by faith in the superior nutrient value of meat juices.”

OUR MINES

“The output of nickel and gold from the Sudbury region was twice as great in 1897 as it was in 1896,and it keeps oo growing. There are several gold mince in operation there, sad paying well. One of these is owned largelv by Pembroke people, and turnsouta gold brick weekly. It was started with afive stamp mill, asa teat, and was considered to be so remunerative that a twenty-five stamp mil! will be plac- ed in immediately, and will be ready for operation in the epring. Outsiders are not asked tu jnveet in thia deal at all,as the

Vivian, of Swansea, the Drury Com- pany, of Chicago, aod Canadian the Copper Company. The Dominion mill is closed just now on account of the death of oue of the largest shareholders. The Canadian Copper Company, generally speaking, has about 500 men employed in mining and smelting, and in getting out wood for roasting ore and feeding the engines. Their wage bill amounts to about $25,000 a month, and the company pays large dividends on a capital of $2,500,000. Their outlay for freightto the United States refinery amounts alone to $75,000 » month. Their output goes mostly to New Jersey end England. Nickle as an amalgum with steel adds forty per cent to the resistance and thirty per cent to the elasticity of the latter, and as the result of frequent tests made at Sheuberness and in t' e States, both Gov~- ernments have adopted it as the best material fer armour plate for the United States war vessels, aud this provides a pretty large market for Sadbury nickle. When the nickle matt is received at the English and Awerican refineries, it really contains about six metals. It has al out 20 or 22 per cent nickle, 15 or 20 per cent. copper, a little gold, a small quantity of silver and aslight percentage of platinum and cobalt.

In certain districts in east Africa, es- decially in the forest of Kilimanjaro, there is a race of monkeys which have actually developed the wearing of *awls.

Didn’t Like the Saw Edges.

When the government issued the first perforated stamps a few of the good folk living in the country were so bound by conservatism that they placed the stamps on their letters only after they had clipped off the perforations. They had been using smooth cut stamps for many years and they did not propose that any newfangled arrangement should have encouragement from them. They were so accustomed to seeing the trimmed stamps that the perfo- rated ones did not have the proper appear- ance.--Chicago Record.

“You sold me two bottles of stuff to make the hair grow’’—

‘It is very strange it won't grow again,” said the barber. ‘I can’t understand it.’’

‘‘Look here,’’ said the man, “I don’t mind drinking another bottle, but this must be the last.’’—London Fun.

SOME UNUSUAL TITLES.

The Names of » Trew Peoks Which Have Not Been Copyrighted.

The journalist who had just written a

delightful little brochure, entitled ‘‘ The

Props From Under the Archimedean Le- ver That Moves the World,”’ was calling on Mr. Young at the library to get it copy-

‘Veg, sir,” he was saying, “I rather think you have hit upona good title for your book. Of course some people won't know what the dickens—I beg your par- don—what on earth it means, but that doesn’t make any difference to yeu. They are stupid people who wouldn't buy it any- how. Still there’s a good deal in a title. Of course I don’t mean the kind our rich girls love sto marry,"’ and the clerk ehuc-

kled, ‘‘but titles of books. You under- stand. I just made a list lcame across today. They are from different sources.

Here’s a few that funny fellow Tom Heed gave to the Duke of Devonshire to go on some dummy ‘hooks for an entrance door to his library: ‘McAdam’s Views Is Rhodes,’ ‘Boyle on Steam Designs For Friezes,’ by an Arctic Explorer; ‘Pygma- lion,’ by Lord Bacon; ‘Cursory Remarks

“Then there were some old volumes of the time of Cromwell which haa titles like these: ‘Crumbs of Comfort For the Chick- ens of the Covenant,’ ‘High Heeled Shoes For Dwarfs In Holiness,’ ‘Hooks and Eyes For Believers’ Breeches,’ ‘The Spiritual Mustard Pot to Make the Soul Sneeze With Devotion,’ ‘Tobacco Battered and the Pipes Shattered About Their Ears That Idly Idolize So Loathsome a Vanity, by Volley of Holy Shot Thundmed From Mount Helicon, a Poem Against the Use

A high grade Jersey was our Spot, Aud tal! and iank was she,

A little shy when one passed by, Yet clever as could be.

She gave her milk right freely, too, But she would seldov tail

To raise ber right hind feot, and plant It equarely ip the pail.

We boys a!l used to scold and vow We'd milk that cow no more; We got so tired of spilling milk About the stable floor, When half through milking one would say. “T’}| finish up the lot ; You needn’t do another thing, It only you'll milk Spot.”

I’ve tied her tail to keep it still, Then coaxed with *‘So, boss +o!” And filling up the bright tin pail The rich, warm milk would flow. “Spot is & good cow after all,” I half decided. when, Quick as a flash, *Ub dear, she’s put Her foot in it again.”

That cow would give a pail of milk So nice, and rich, and sweet,

If only she had been content To stand upon her feet,

And not epil! all the good she did By one untimely kick ;

She put her foot in it, I sey, And then she let it stick.

And yet I feel some sympathy For Spot within my heart ;

She’s not the first one that has made In good works quite a start,

Ard then by one wrong step, perhaps, Kicked everything askew —

The clerk handed the journalist a folded paper.

“Thank you,’’ said the journalist. “Fifty cents, please. Anything more today?’’ smiled the clerk, and the incident was closed.—Washington Star.

A Memory With One Failing.

Jones was telling his friend Smith of an incident that had occurred some 25 years ago, and the latter remarked on the won- derful memory his friend possessed.

The compliment seemed to please Jones. “Yes, my boy,”’ he said, *‘I never forget anything when it is once in there,’’ point- ing to his forehead.

“You surprise me. But I think I can tell you of a little thing about which your memory has singularly failed.”’

“What is it?’

“Well, old man, how about that half sovereign I lent you a month or so ago?”’

Although a very busy man, Dr. R. Y. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., bas found time in which to write a great book of over a thousand pages, entitled The People’s Common Sense Medical Adviser, ‘n Plain English, or Medicine Simplified. Few books printed inthe English language have reached so greatacsale as has this popular work, over 680,000 copies having been solu at $1.50each. The profits on this enormous sale having repaid its author for the great amount of labor and money expended on its production, he has now decided to give away, absolutelo free, 500,000 copies of this valuable book, the recipient only being required to mail to the World’s Dispensary Medical Associa- tion, of Buffalo, N. Y., of which company heis president, 31 one cent stamps, to cover cost of mailing only, and the book will be sent postpaid. It is a veritable medical librarv, complete in one volume. It contains 1008 large pages, and over 300 illustrations, some of them in colors. The Free Edition is precisely the same as that sold at $1.50, except only that the books are bound in strong manilla paper covers, instead of cloth. It is not often that our readers have an opportunity te obtain a valuable book on such generoue terms, and we predict that few wil! miss availing Ubemselves of the unusual and liberal offer to which we bave «alled their at- tention.
