Heart Failure.
THE PEACE BELLS OF BROOKLINE. Our heart* wore waiting, bleeding, waiting, With trembling, longing, hope and fear. Our very breathe in silence bating. And while we prayed, “God’s hand be staid; Let war lie over, peace appear!” Through all the air, w ith cadence line, Came pealing bells from fair Brookline: “Peace is signed at Appomattox! ’Mattox! ’Mattox! Peace is signed at Appomattox!” From spire to spire the tidings spring vnubt auis dash o’er peaks of snow. While strong men weep 01 or sing. And each man’s mood to all seems good. For in that happy, golden glow To God an grateful hearts incline, While shouts the bells of fair Brookline: “Peace is signed at Appomattox! ’Mattox! ’Mattox! Peace is signed at Appomattox!” Twaa children rang that glorious peal In lightsome glee that war was o’er. As men and women now they feel How blest were they that happy day To ring the bells which tidings bore That brother brother fought no more! And still they’ll thrill in life’s decline When sound the bells of fair Brookline, For ne’er in memory's dreams shall cease That peal seraphic ringing: “Peace! Peace was signed at Appomattox! 'Mattox! ’Mattox! Peace was signed at Appomattoxl

A MurvelotiH Memory. A memory is a good thing to cultivate. Most people have passably good memories, many have extraordinary ones, and some have none at all. One of the causes of the popularity of the late James G. Blaine was his remarkable memory for names and faces. It is said that Mr. Blaine could recall the faces and names of persons he had met only casually 10 years and more after the first meeting, not having encountered them in the interval.—Harper’s Young People.
Snakes on the Isles of Shoal*.

that it is most necessary for us to have. Ton miles and passenger miles are not here recorded. We know that each ton of goods carried pays the railways on the average about Ik) cents. If we guess that the ave rage distance is about 25 miles, we arrive at an average rate of 2.40 cents per ton mile, which is not very far from thmi times the average rate in the United States. So in the case of passengers wo may guess that the average fare is about 1.75 per mile, which though lower than the American average, is higher than in any Eurojs'an country. Such a result seems very far from satisfactory. High cost of construction might have justified a high range of rates and fares at the outset, hut year by year the

The element in the theaters which loved and worshiped Forrest and his energetic methods is larger in San Francisco than in most cities of its size.

per mile of line open increases in den- very much on the same lines as the taMe
sity, and yet the goods rates hardly come down at all—in the last year or two their tendency has been all the other way— while the passenger fares only come down very slowly. And yet the explanation is not far to seek. Our services have always been expensive to work. They are becoming more expensive year by year. In America traiuloads are mainly limited by the capacity of the engines—ours by the weight of goods or number of passengers that have had time to accumulate in the very short interval between one train and another. Let me illustrate: If a man is sailing from New York to Europe, he will choose his favorite line or his favorite boat, regardless of the time of day or day of the week at which it starts. On. the other hand, if the Manhattan elevated were to try to run its trains only once in 10 minutes in the slack hours of the day the street cars would rob it of the bulk of its passen-
gers.
Now, in England our business is al! between places which in America would be regarded as close together. We call Manchester “the north of England,” yet Manchester is only 44 hours from London. Consequently there must lie trains between the two points at all hours of the day, to suit the convenience of passengers wanting to go at any time. Consequently. too, each train, runs with very mnch less than a traiuload of passengers. Then these trains must be run at high speeds, for though a few minutes more or less are of little importance in a journey of hundreds of miles, a quarter of an hour out of four hours is a very considerable percentage. High speeds mean few stops, and few stops mean additional trains to serve the second class stations. Then high speeds and frequent expresses for passengers mean high speeds and short trains for good—that is, half loaded—engines, for an engine loaded to its full capacity moves so slowly—occupies the line, that is, for so long a period—that it is impossible to
find room for it.
But it would not be true to say that the goods are worked at high speed simply for the convenience of the railway management. On the contrary, the demand for speed in the case of merchandise traffic is fully abreast of that in the case of passengers. Broadly.it maybe

"Toad Bone” Was a Wonder. All early writers attribute wonderful qualities to toads and frogs and the various parts of their bodies. Pliny believed, for instance, that if a toad was brought into the midst of a mob or other large and unruly concourse of people “silence would instantly prevail.” A small bone found in the right side of toads “of the proper age” was also believed to have powers over the various elements. “By throwing this l«>ne into a vessel of boiling water,” says Pliny, “it will immediately cool it, the water refusing to boil again until the hone has been removed. To find this bone, expose the dead toad on an ant hill. When the ants have eaten her all away except the hones, take each bone separately and drop it into boiling water. Thus may the wondrous toad bone bo discovered.” This antiboil bone of course had its op-
posite.
In another portion of his work Pliny says: “On the other hand, again, in the left side of this reptile there is another bone which when thrown into water has all the appearance of making it boil. The name given this bone is ‘apocynon,’ which signifies ‘dog averting,’ because it h<is the power and property of assuaging the fury of the fiercest dogs.” It was also a sovereign remedy for love and other trouble, would conciliate estranged friends, and if water in which a “toad bone” had been s tee pul lie used mixed with lamb’s tallow as an ointment “the person using the same might without the least effort see ghosts and divers spirits both by the day and by the night.”—St. Louis Republic.
