Confederate Surgeons.
Considering the means at their dis
posal, the 'difficulties and dangers
under which they labored, the record
mad8 by the surgeons of the Confed
erate army was wonderful. They
bad hardly any of the appliances of
c their profession; they had hardly
'anything hut theirskill, their courage
and a heroic devotion to duty which
conquered difficulty and invented
many an expedient in the hour of
fiHeed. They not only did regular
'/ surgeons’ duty, but they often bore
If the brunt of battle, and suffered
” themselves the pains it was their mis
sion to relieve in others. The per
sonnel of the surgeons’ crops of the
Confederate army was superb. No
adequate credit has ever been lies
towed upon these gallant gentlemen,
but their true position is as well as
sured as is the hope ot intelligent
and impartial history. It is gratify
ing to see testimony from their co-
temporaries which gives the proper
color to their deeds. At a recent
meeting of the Confederate Surgeons'
Survivors Association in Columbia,
S. C., Professor F. Peyre Porcher
made a notable address. He gave,
perhaps, as true and graphic au ac
count of the Confederate surgeons’
work as has yet been made, and he
paid a tribute to this noble body of
men which will be indorsed by all
who know their record.
When the true history of the civil
.war comes to be written it will have
n$ brighter page than that which edm
meliorates the virtues and efficiency
of the surgeons of the Confederacy.—

What Produces Death.
Some one says that few men _ die
of age. Almost all persons die of
disappointment, personal, mental, or
bodily toil, or accident. The pas
sions kill men sometimes even sud
denly.- The common expressions,
“choked with passion,” has exaggera
tion in it, for even though not sud
denly fatal, strong passions shorten
life. Strong-bodied men often die
young—weak men live longer than the
strong, strong men use their strength,
and the weak have none to use. The
latter take care of themselves, the
.. former do not. As it is with the
body, so it is with the mind and
temper. The strong arc apt to break,

which live temperate lives, have w p
generally their prescribed term of
years. The horse lives 25 years, the

pig 6 or 7. The numbers all bear

The reason why a woman Is afraid of a
mouse is n profound myetery-indeed, it has
never been very closely proven that she is.
But some women are constantly in such a
nervous, irritable condition that the slightest
thing annoys and startles them. The cause of
this unfortunato state of affairs is usually
some functional derangement; some distress
ing or painful irregularity, somo derange
ment or peculiar weakness incident to her
sex; or, it may bo due to inflammation, ul
ceration or displacement, of some of tne
pelvic viscera, or to other organic lesions
peculiar to her sex. From whichpver causo

Alive With Wires.
The house ot one of Edison’s chiefs
is absolutely alive with wires. As one
approaches the front gate it swings
open and shuts atomaticaliy. The
visitor’s foot on the porch rings a bell
in the kitchen and also one in the
master’s study. By touching a button
he opens the front door before |he
visitor has time to knock. An elec
trical music bo* plays duriug dinner
When the guest retires to hts bed
room the folding bed unfolds by elec
trici'.y. When he puts out the gas s
strange, mocking display, of skeletons,
gravestones, owls, and other strange
phantasmorgria dance about on the
wall at his feet.
Hunting Buffalo Bones.
A curious industry of Forth, Dakota,
which will decrease in time, is Buffalo
bone picking. The vast herds ot l)ut-
fdtO’haVe been destroyed and their
skins sold, and now the pioneers make
merchandise of the bones scattered
over the prarirs. The bones are ship
ped to St. Louis or Chicago and turn
ed into glue and fertilizers. Kansas,
Colorado, Nebraska, and even older
-Stales, have all been the scene of this
sfirangC contribution to wealth, and : no
one knows how many thousand ear
load^have thus been gleaned aftrr the
slaughter of the American bison.
