Carlyle and Titian.
At a Royal Academy dinner several
artists and literary men waxed enthu
siastic in praise of favorite painters.
“His glorious colors is a fact about Ti
tian,” said one. “And his glorious
drawing is another fact about Titian,”
cried a second. Carlyle, who bad been
listening, interrupted the remarks by
1 saying, with deliberation:
1 “And here I sit, a man made in the
image of God, who knows nothing
about Titian, and cares nothing about
Titian—and that’s another fact about
Titian.” Thackeray, sipping claret,
paused and bowed to Carlyle as be
remarked : “Pardon me, that is not a
fact about Titian. But it is a fact—
and a lamentable one—about Thomas
Carlyle.”
Bobbed the Grave.
A startling incident, of which Mr.
John Oliver of Philadelphia, was the
subject, is narrated by him as follows:
“I was in a most dreadful condition.
My skin was almost yellow eyes sunk
en, tongue coaled, pain continually in
back and sides, no appetite—gradually
growing weaker day by day. Three
physicians bad given me up. Fortun
ately, a friend advised trying ‘Electric
Bitters;’ and to my great joy and sur
prise, the first bottle made a decided
improvement. I continued their use
for three weeks, and am now a well
man. I know they saved my life, and
robbed the grave of another victim ”
No one should fail to try them. Only
sOcts per bottle at J. N. Harris & Son’s
and Carlisle <fc Ward’s drug store.

Scents Under the Skin-
The papers are amusing themselves
by discussing whether it is justifiable
for a woman to scent herself by means
of byperdermic injeetions. It seems
to us that there is nothing to discuss.
Women who have money and no oc
cupation will alway rdo foolish things.
They are at the mercy of every quack
and chariatan, and nothing that we
can say is likely to have much effect
on their folly. People who consult
palmists and fortune tellers are likely
to take up any new erase. As a mat
ter of fact, the cpstom of scenting the
breath and body by use of drugs ins
jected under the skin is by no means
new, and there are many
meats in Paris and elsewhere which
exist solely for this purpose.
The massage ebops would have
adopted the idea long ago, bat their
customers are exclusively men, and
man’s folly does not run in this par*
ticular direction. We have seen a
neat little outfit consisting of a hypo
dermic syringe and a number of cant
nulae obtained from one of the Paris
houses, and we have been made ac*
quainted with the formula of the so
lutions employed, but it would serve
no useful purpose to make them pub
, lie. We can only express a hope that
the apparatus is aseptic, or at all
events that it is occasionally washed,
for if this precaution is neglected
there is likely to be a pretty general
i dissemination of disease, and some of
the ladies who now find time hang
heavily on their hands will be less
pleasantly occupied than they ha<
anticipated.—British Medical Journal.
Force of Habit.
Lcrd Kelvin, the celebrated English
scientist, has just celebrated his 74th
birthday. He was born in Belfast,
Ireland. For over fifty years he has
held the chair ot natural philosophy
at Glasgow University, and this was
justly considered so remarkable that
I in 1896 the jubilee was enthusiastically
celebrated. A good story is related ol
his lecturing methods at the uni
versity. As a professor of science be
, can use long words in such a formid*
, able array as would mako a dictionary
t break its binding with horror. Dur
r ing a course of lectures once on mag
netism, for instance, he defined an
j ideal magnet as “an infinitely long,
, infinitely thin, uniform and uniformly
and longitudinally magnetized bar,”
t and the misguided students vocifer
ously cheered, which caused the pro
’ fessor to say : “Silence!” The defini*
t tion was made and cheered, with the
usual reprimand, frequently daring
, the lectures. Once, near the conclu
sion, however, the students did not
cheer, but Lord Kelvin, from force of
habit, rapped out “Silence” the same
as before.
