No, It was mot the trala leaving the reils and plunging down an embankment. It was only Barney's pleasant voice, roiling ever so slightly his r's--it was only Barney making this remark to Alderly, the chaperon's husband: "1 have been noticing the ladies in this car, and I don't believe I ever saw s0 many beautiful ones together. Don't you know it is rare to find a really beautiful woman? If her eyes are fine, something Is wrong with ber chin; if her nose" -- Irinda felt sick and voluntatily clos- ed her ears, while her sun seemed to leave Its horizon.

Ibsen, my great compatriot, has In one of his works formulated the para- dox that the man Is strongest who stands most alone. There Is certainly some truth in this--nay, there Is much truth In It so far as science is con- cerned. The man who In the search for truth goes his way Independently of other men and of other considera- tions is certainly the man who is apt to find the greatest and most valuable truth. On the other hand, it is also true that science more than most other things In life depends on co-operation, on the help of one's fellow beings, and this becomes more and more true every day. Many people are apt to forget what science actually is and what they owe to science, for It is through sci ence that modern society actually ex- ists, and the development of soclety as it Is today would be impossible if sei- ence were eliminated. Hamanity is growing; put, if science and tiie) means miserable Yoture. "Therefore the nation that wishes to be cared for must support sclence and those who carry on sélentific work. Science will live her own life and has done so ever since the days when Prometheus made his fatal expedition to the gods aud | stole the fire which is more or less ' burning in every one of us and cannot be extinguisbed. There is something subling in this everlasting fire of scl- ence, Generaflon after generation dis- ' appeaes. The individual is nothing, but always "watchful In the tower man shall remain in sleepless contempla- tion."--Dr. Nansen. THE HUMAN THROAT. It Has a Sort ef Little Brain That Controls Its Actions. Did you know that the throat has a brain of its own? Few people are aware of it, but it's a fact. There Is a small ganglia which exercises direct control of the muscles of the throat and acts as its brain. Of course It Is subservient to the "genuine brain, but at the same time does a good deal of in- dependent thinking for itself. It is very timid and suspicious of any strange objects that come dear the throat. For this reason It 18 very difficult for a physician to operate on the throat. Before anything cam be done in this di- ! rection it is necessary for the operator to galn the confidence of the little brain that dominates It. It frequently takes weeks before this ce can be secured, and until it 1s secured it 8 impossible to peérfornr an operation.

Horace hints In one of his epistles that his works were being + pirated and sold so cheap that they were getting into the hauds of the ral- ble and becoming schoolbooks. Mar tial, fu one of his epigrams, «ays that a copy of Lis Thirteenth book mils bought for 4 nummt (about 15 ec yy and that if, Tryphon, the bookseller) should sell it at 2 numml he would still get a proiit.
