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.— Telograph. 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, u zup 11 temper. 1UC Hiruug ttiuajsi. w 8 30pjl242plLv or/like the candle, run; the weak oMp; 142pAr burn out.

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.

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.
