he fixed the doctor FINAL MESSAGE OF SPANIARD DYING IN HOSPITAL. • Not Black Hand Letter, as Nurse Feared, But Instructions to Hla Brother Not to Pay the Medical Man. In a New York hospital a cadaverous Spaniard, with the aid of oxygen and a pump, was staving off the final moment of exit. Rallying temporarily, he stretched out a band and clutched at the arm of the nurse, motioning her to lean over and put her ear to his mouth. “My doctor go?” "Yes; he’s gene." "Shut ’e door.” "Lock him,” be begged—it was the custom to humor the dying. He beckoned her closer and pulled her down to him again, "You make 1 promise?"’ “Yes, indeed; what Is it?" "Get paper, pencil, and —what yor call ?—envelope." Shielding his writing with one han< he managed to scrawl a single line ot ' the note paper and to address th< message, but before' loosening hit Jiold on the paper he called her U I him once more. "Now you promise for me again’ You promise you not show this to doo tor? —not show it tonight, nurse —no| to anybody? Just mall It —you prom Ise?” She nodded. He slipped the sheet from the en velope once more, grinning with whai had every appearance of fiendish ex ultatlon. “That fix him,” he muttered. "Thai fix him.” An hour later, when the doctor re ■ turned, he found the nurse crying. | “He died fifteen minutes ago, and J don’t know what to do. I ought tc i mail this, but I’m afraid It’s some I Black Hand business or something. ! Would you be willing to look it ovei and sqe if It’s all right to send? You ! read Spadsb- She bended him the ' letter. U-® glanced at the sne single line > and shook his head. "Is it a Black Hand message?” she . whispered. I "No," he said plaintively, “It’s to his brother. He just writes, ‘Don’t pay the doctor.’ ” —Lippincott's. Cause of Age and Death. Everything points, it appears to me, to the essential correctness of the view which holds age and death to be :he result of the greatly increased dlf- I ferentiatlon of larger organisms. Is there then any probability that we , shall some time find that In the high- , er animals, as in the lower ones, deatt^ : need not occur? Evidently not. If | Heath is the price of differentiation, then after the goods have been dellv* J red the price must be paid. To prevent a higher organism from undergo- ; '.ng death would at the same time pre- 1 1 rent him from becoming a higher or- | ranlsm. And the cell which remains n the embryonic condition—-the cell ' if the germ glands—is even now as 'mmortal as the cell of the infusorian. Death, as Minot says, is the price we pay for our complex life. Age and ieath, though not Inherent In life itself, are inherent tn the differentia-' ‘.ion that makes life worth living. — Prof. H. S. Jennings in the Popular Science Monthly.

Dangerous Exercise. Every person who has received gymnasium training Is aware of the fact that an exercise which calls fori painful effort on the part of the beginner Is often performed almost without any conscious effort at all ifter a certain amount of training has been received. Again, It Is perfectly* well known that brute strength alone loes not make a gymnast, and that a simple exercise may offer great dlf-; Acuity to a muscular and well developsd Individual who has not been trained In the gymnasium. The explana- ■ tlon for this la made plain In an article by Prof, du Bols Reymond tn Die Umschau. who points out that one of the essential functions of gymnasium work Is not so much to build up muscle as to train nerves and nerve groups to work in proper unison and co-ordination.

The Process. Finding one of her pupils In peculiar distress over his lesson, a teacher In a primary school Inquired as to the trouble. The boy stated this arduous problem: “If Richard has three red apples and John has four, how many have they both got together?” “Is that so very hard?” ehe asked. “Yes, ma’am." “But, Surely,” the teacher continued, “you know already that three and four make seven. There can be no trouble about that." “I know that, ma’am." was the pathetic response. “But the process! It’s the process that wears me out!"— Lippincott’s. Value of Buildings In France. The results of the decennial valuation of buildings In France show that In the fiscal year 1909-10 there were, outside of public buildings, monuments, etc., 9,475,786 houses and 137,676 workshops and factories In the republic. The rental value of these structures Is given In the returns as 1708.723,431. The rental value In the department of the Seine, which Includes Parle, Is *232.922,284, practically one-third of the total rental value tor the whole of Franca
