NEARLY KILLED BY SMOKING
CIGARETTES.
With his windpipe nearly closed
from a contraction of the muscles,
due, the doctors say, to his smoking
too many cigarettes, John E. Wilson,
eighteen, of 140 Castle street, South
End, was found in a semi-conscious
and almost dying condition on the
Common recently. That he did not
strangle, the surgeons say, is due to
the prompt action of the police, who
after finding him, made a record trip
to the hospital with their charge.
Yesterday, the doctors declare, Wil
son admits having smoked cigarettes
almost incessantly, with the result
that the nicotine partially paralyzed
the muscles of his throat. At the hos
pital the doctors applied restoratives,
and later he was able to go to his
home. Before he left, however, he
was admonished to be more careful
about the use of cigarettes if he
wanted to continue to live. —The Bos

The Rochester papers tell of a min
ister’s four-year-old daughter, who
does not like to be left alone at night.
“My little girl must be good and
brave,” said the mother one night
“There is nothing to be afraid of and
beautiful angels will watch over you.”
She left the room. “Beau-ti-ful an
gels! beau-ti-ful an-gels!” she heard
the child say to herself. Then sudden
ly she heard the thump of two little
feet on the floor, and Josephine rushed
from the bedrom in post haste with
the remark: “It beats the dickens
how scared I am with all those beauti
ful angels in there.”
SOME UNEXPECTED MEETINGS.
And Surprises of Other Sorts.
The talk had turned to unexpected
meetings—coming across friends or
acquaintances in parts of the world
where one would least expect to find
them, and finding in out of the way
places men who proved to be very
different from what they seemed to be.
One of the talkers had told of lean
ing on the rail of a steamship coming
to anchor at low water on arriving
at Liverpool and watching the tender
come alongside. He did not know that
there was any person who knew him
on that side of the sea until a man
standing on the upper deck of the
tender waved his hand at him and
shouted, “Hello, Sam!”
Another had told of being in an of
fice on a landing on the lower Missis
sippi river when a man in a most dis
reputable looking outfit, bareheaded,
barefooted and carrying a thirty pound
catfish by the gills, came in. The
clerk was footing up a long column
of figures and the sum never came out
twice alike.
He started in to add it when the
man with the catfish had step
ped up, glanced at the long column of
numbers of four figures and said:
“That should be a 2 and the eight
to carry makes the next 6, instead of
a 5.”
“What’s the trick?” asked the clerk.
“No trick,” said the man. “Just sim
ple addition —four figures at a time.”
It turned out afterward that the
man with the fish had spent most of
his working years as a bookkeeper in
a New York bank.
Here another man in the group,
who some of those at the table call
ed professor, chuckled and said, “That
reminds me.”
“Let’s have it,” some one said, and
the Professor discoursed somewhat
as follows:
“One afternoon in the latter part of
the winter season I was sitting on the
veranda of a Florida hotel. A little
distance away were seated half a doz
en tourists from the north, and from
what I overheard they seemed to be
discussing in a half serious way some
abstruse question.
“ ‘l’ll tell you,’ one of them spoke
up. ‘We’ll leave it to the next man
who comes along the sidewalk past
this end of the veranda.’
“Apparently they agreed; for just
then one of their number halted an
individual who was passing and said:
“ ‘Look here, my man, we want you
to settle an important question for
us.’
“The man had on a tattered straw
hat, a sleeveless shirt, brown over
alls and cowhide brogans, and carried
a paint pot partly filled with copper
paint, a coil of old line and some few
tools, such as a putty knife, screw
driver, caulking iron and mallet. His
face and arms were of a color about
half way between that of a mulatto
and a fullblood negro. He stopped and
waited with a puzzled look.
“ ‘We gentlemen,’ said the man who
had accosted him, ‘are unable to agree
as to how it is that a man can crook
his finger like this” (bending his in
dex finger) “when he wan to to; and
we decided to leave it to the first in
dividual that came along. You’re the
man. Now tell us what enables me to
crook my finger when I wish to.’
“ ‘Don’t know,” replied the man on
the sidewalk, gravely.
“ ‘Well, it’s up to you to make some
kind of a decision, and whatever you
decide goes—with us.’
“ ‘Gentlemen,’ said the man of the
paint pots and tools, with suspicion
of a smile on his deeply browned face,
‘I wish I could give you a witty an
swer, but I can’t. Perhaps I can do

no better than to remind you of some
of the theories that have been ad
vanced to account for the puzzling
fact of the actuation of matter
through the mind —that is, if you had
not canvassed those theories in your
discussion before I happened along.’
“ ‘Go on,’ said one of the tourists;
‘you’re beginning well.’
“ ‘I was going to remind you,’ the
man resumed, ‘of the three theories
advanced by the ancient and less an
cient metaphysicians. First, the the
ory of the tertium quid—the third
something that is neither mind nor
matter, but is acted upon by mind and
itself acts upon matter, thus enabling
the material seemingly to obey the
volitions of the immaterial.’
“By this time the tourists were
glancing at one another and grinning,
and the paint-pot man went on:
“ ‘Secondly, the theory of constant
miraculous intervention by the only
Power of which we think we know
that is capable of performing mira
cles.
“ ‘Thirdly—and here it is interest
ing to note that the ultra materialists
and the extreme predestinationists, so
to speak, come together—the theory
that every physical organism and
every mental organism is a separate
creation, and that the physical organ
ism is created to go through a series
of motions from the beginning to the
end of what we call its life, and that
the mental organism is created to go
through a certain series of volitions
—that these organisms are exactly
paired, two by two, and that the ma
terial does what it was created to
do and the immaterial wills what it
was created to will throughout the
period of their being coupled together
which is what we term the lifetime
of the creature.’
“Here the tourists took long breaths,
but said nothing, and the voice from
the sidewalk went on:
“ ‘Now, I might, if I had time, by
citing the terse words of the authors,
refresh your memories concerning
what has been written in compara
tively recent years as to these the
ories by such men as Descartes, Kant
and Sir William Hamilton; but I must
be going up the road. You will re
member that perhaps the greatest of
metaphysicians said substantially that
we are all necessarily philosophers.
His syllogism ran something like this:
If we would philosophize we must
philosophize; if we would not philoso
phize we can get around it only by
philosophizing, therefore, we all must
philosophize.
“ ‘Substantially the same dilemma
was expressed in verse by Kant in
his “Kriaik der Reiner Vernunft,” if
I am not mistaken, of which a fair
though rather free translation would
be:
“ ‘lf we would philosophize, philoso
phize we must;
If we would not philosophize we must
philosophize or bust.’
“ ‘Say,’ gasped one of the tourists,
‘come in and have a drink.’
“No thanks, said the man; ‘lt’s din
ner hour, and I haven’t my tuxedo on.
Good evening.’
: ‘A day or two later,” said the pro
fessor, “I fell in with the paint-pot
man down by the river bank and
asked him about his outpouring of
philosophy up at the hotel.
“ ‘Oh,’ he said, ‘I was tired and felt
like amusing myself for a minute or
two. A few days before I had been
looking over some of my old college
text books on metaphysics for expres
sions to put into the beak of a Boston
spinster’s learned parrot in a sketch
I was writing for a humorous weekly,
and that’s what helped me out in my
talk.’ ”
