Why Not Armor for Every Bullet? An Ingenious New York doctor haa Invented a bichloride of mercury tab let In which the antidote Is combined with the polMin, so that a person may swallow corrosive sublimate, intentionally or accidentally, with impunity. It's a capital Idea, and ought to be applied to poisons generally, and pos elbly Maxim might find some way of appllng the principle to firearms. An automatic, self resisting bullet, or something of that sort, would be of much greater utility than hi-, silencer.

Peta and Broken Hearts. The dog of Mistral, the Provencal poet, died the day after Mineral's re cent death. It is a fairly common thing for dogs, cats, canaries and other pets to die a few days or even hours after their masters Hut do they die of grief It Is not likely. A Manayunk physician examined the corpse of a canary that had succumbed with Its little mlstre3S. The canary's death, the examination showed, was due not to a broken heart, but to scarlet fever, the- malady to which Its little mistress had herself succumbed. From this and from kindred postmortems It Is surmised that pets, when they die simultaneously with their owners, have become infected with the disease that carried their owners off measles, diphtheria, typhoid. The death-from-grlef story is pretty, but, alas, It won't wash. A Real Need. A Frenchman named Delamoy has Invented an apparatus whereby you can wind your clock by opening and shutting a door, the winding machine doing Its work by the action of the door. What is really needed, however. Is an Invention that, attached to a door, will get rid of people Inside of the room. No known method has yet been invented to accomplish this purpose. Yet Is there anything which would promote greater efficiency and comfort and give more lasting satisfaction? Life. Uninfluential Quantity. "Do you approve of taking the word 'obey' out of the marriage ceremony?" "No." replied MIbs Cayenne. "Let it remain. Nobody Is going to keep bringing up a marriage ceremony and quoting from it as if it were a party platform."

A mother was urging her little son to be generous, specifically in the case of a small comrade not w ell endowed with worldly goodB. "I wish you'd give your little wagon to Melville." she suggested. "He has so few toys and you have so many." " I don't want to, mama. 1 like my little wagon. Why doesn't his papa buy toys for him?" He has no papa, dear. That Is the reason why I want you to be so particularly nice to him It would be no virtue In you to give him what you don't want anyway. We should always be careful to share what we really prize.
