expert student af the art of bookbinding of his times. ‘Dr. Koecker was one of the earliest collectors of books and en- gtavings in this country, and he was the only collector who became so infat- uated with his bobby as to study and acquire expertness in every branch of bookbinding. Asan amateur in layer and extra illustrator there are many who claim that hemever had a superior. He wasa veritable genius, for, besides his skill as a maker of exquisite books, he was also a clever clockmaker, a wa- ter colorist, a woodworker and a carver of ivory. It was pleasure for him to do all these things, and he spent most of bis leisure time over the artistic bind- | ing of some dainty, volume after a long day of work in his dentist’s office.

“My mother has been a great sufferer from asthma for the past ten years, and her recovery is almost without a parallel. On account of her advanced age—over seventy— we had but little hopes of ever seeing her well again; but we are sincerely gzateful to inform you that she has been entirely cured by the use of Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral.”

The Newtonian law of gravitation, that every body in the universe attracts every other body with a foree varying directly as the mass and inversely 8 the equare of the distance, is questioned by Prof. H. Seeliger, of Munich, who is the firet to of- fer evidences that the law must be inexact or not universal. This has arisen from an ettemptto extend the law mathematic- ally to infinite spare. Prof. Seelinger was forced to assume either that the sum-total of the masses of the universe is infinitely great in which case Newton’s law over- rates the attractive forces, or that the Newtonian Jaw is strictly exact, in which case the infinite spacee of the universe cannot be filled with matter of finite density. He is forced to conclude that Newton’s great law is inexact.

ENTERTAINMENT AND BANQUET,

On Jan. fb, 1898, the eve of Dr. A. E. Douglass’ departure from O’Leary to resume his praviice at Hunter River, a grand banqnet and entertainment took place at the residence of H. W. Turner,

Esq., After the Dr’s many frieuds bad assembled from farand near, Robt Ellis, Esq, was appointed to preside. ‘Jhen followed a very interesting and appropriate programme which was successfully carried

out. Those who took part in the programme were Messrs Thomas Hogan, A. A. MacNeil,

Geo. Johnstone, Thomas Smallwood, Wm. Dennie, Robt, Ellis jr.. Herbert Heuctis, Charles Lidstone and others. After this followed games and various plays all of whick were joyously participated in. The plays being finiehed all sat down to par~ take of the nivities prepared by Mrs. H. W. Turner. Toasts played a prominent partin the banquet all of which were humorously responded to aod drank in the best of “‘Adam’s Ale”

Finally the Docter was presented with a very complimentary address which was read by Mr. Iyy Warren. The sentiments expressed in it bore testimony

of his popularity as a physician and also

gave expression to the esteem in which he was held as & member of the social circle. The address was ably and feelingly re- plied to after which was sung “ Auld Langs syne” and “Gol Save the Queen.” Then all retired komeward highly pleased with the time spent at M:. Turner’s though greatiy regretting the departure of Dr. A. BK. Douglass.

A Famous Bandmaster,

There is in the German army a negro bandmaster named Sabac el Cher. Not- withstanding his name he is a native German, but his father came from low- er Egypt and spent his boyhood at the court of the viceroy in Cairo, where he was educated. There he made the ac- guaintance of Prince Aibrecht of Prus- sia, a brother of the old Emperor Wil- liam, who tock him to Berlin, where he married a Berlin woman and entered the service of the prince. His wife pre- sented him a son in 1867. He was Sabac el Cher, a musical lad, who began to study the violin when he was 8 years old. Later he went to a conservatory, and in 1685 he entered the military service as oboe and trombone player in the Thirty-fifth regiment of royal Prus- sian fusileers, Prince Henry of Prussia’s. Having served there several years, he went to the Royal High School For Music in Berlin for further study, where he was under the mor noted teachers. He passed his examination in 1895, and in that year was appoint ed bandmaster of the First grenadie2 regiment at Konigsberg. He still re- tains this post, and his band has wor much applause for its public perform ances. It appeared with saccess at th (ternational Art exposition at Dresden
