Napoleon Itonnparte. the Frenchman
whose interesting career was brought
t an end by the Knjrlish at the battle
of Waterloo, has two royal successors
0:1 the island of St. Helena, where he
was exiled and died.
They are Ilinizul. the son and heir
of (Vtewayo, the Zulu Ulna, ami I'nda
l,uk, brother of the same monarch,
liolh are victims of lh it ish arrogance
unit disregard of the interests of other
rations, ami their treatment has lecn
h-cidedlv more unjust ami overln'arinjr
than that of the distin-ruished Cor
sica n, says the New York World.
Tlie Zulus are the tinest race id
Africa, which is not very hitfh praise
to bestow on a nation. Kider Hazard
has made us familiar with their moral
ami combative qualities in his more or
less reliable works. I'mlcr insidious
I'.ritish influence, however, they lictfan
some years airo to jrive tip their tiirht
injr habits and tfrew agricultural. They
were encouratretl tocross the Ixinndary
into the Uritish colonies of Natal and
work for the British ami to resist the
encroachments of the llocrs of the
Transvaal, in lsTT. when a war broke
out between the 1'hts and the Zulus,
the l'.ritish profited by the occasion to
annex the Transvaal. A war witli the
Zulus followed. The Knrlish were de
feated at lirst. but Sirtiarnet Wolscley
crushed the Zulus at I'lundi. The
l.np-lish then reorganized the ioverti
nient of Zululand in such a way that
there was incessant internal distnrle
ance. t Vtewayo visited London, where
he was received everywhere in society,
his frank and genial manners and his
interest i nr ways at table making him
a universal favorite.
It was linally determined by the
English government to restore (Vte
wayo to his throne. Shortly after his
restoration a chief iiauied Zibvbu led
an insurrection ajraiust him, attacked
him and wounded him in the nilit
time, ami killed many of his followers.
Cctcwayo's jH-opIc, the I'sutus. formed
an alliance with the Hints ami defeat
ed Zi be I u. (Vtewayo died soon after
ward from the effects of his wounds.
After much disturbance Zululand
was made a llritish colony. Zibcbn
then invaded the jxirtioii of the coun
try reserved to the I'sutus. The latter,
feeling that they had been unfairly
treated by their alleged I'.ritish protec
tors, rose and were suppressed. I'n
ilabiiko and his ward ami nephew
were exiled to St. Helena for ten
years for taking part in an armed re
bellion. Iloth are stout, wcll-prown men, and
show hi'h birth ami breeding in their
manners. Kuropcan civilization has
bejun to uffect them. Already they
have (riven up the native costume of
feathers round the waist for one of
trousers, coat ami tall liai.
The climate of St. Helena obliges
them to wear a blanket or some heavy
covering much of the time. The
change from the tierce, dry climate of
South Africa to one where the air is al
ways full of moisture ami the tempera
ture ranges from fifty-seven to s-even-ty-two
decrees has been very disagree
able for the Zulu princes. It is doubt
fill whether they will ever leave their
island prison alive. If they die their
fate will be still more similar to that
of Napoleon. They are very cleanly
in their habits, but live by preference
in the smallest ami dingiest rooms of
the house allowed them.
NEW CURE FOR HEADACHE.
Tapplmr tlie llen.il witli tht. Kinder Often

't is surprising to what an extent
mechanical vibrations are now em
ployed lo uct umii the morbid condi
tions of the sensitive nervous system,
says the St. Louis Republic lK-Boii
det, of Paris, has been able to produce
local ana'stliesia, bv conducting' tine
and execedinply rapid vibrations hal f
way up t he root , of the teeth and to
perforin one of the most painful dental
oH-ratioiis, that of extract inj' the liv
intT nerves from the teeth, without the
pat ieut feeling' any pain. Charcot has
successfully used the vibratory treat
ment for sick headache and for certain
nervous diseases accompanied by pain,
as well as certain mental conditions
accompanied by depression.
A very simple form of this treatment
is recommended by M. liourdurki. of
Moscow. While he was one day exam
ining a patient who was suffering
from an excruciating headache he used
percussion of the cranium, just as is
done for the chest, to ascertain wheth
er any material lesion was perceptible.
Two or three minutes after finishing
his examination he was greatly as
tonished to hear his patient say that
the headache had Completely disap
peared. M. I Kumlouki has since prac
ticed this method with much success,
esH-cially in cases where there was no
apparent cause for headache, or when
it assumed the nervous form. The per
cussion must lie made lightly, with
only one or two tinkers, w ithout pro
ducing any unpleasant or too pro
nounced sensation, and the intensity
of the taps can he frradually increased.
In this way a vibratory massacre is ad
ministered, which is calculated to re
move the distressing symptoms.
It is evident that in many cases this
relief can be only momentary, ami the
cause of the headache must then be
discovered, in order that a cure may
be effected.

THE CORK SUPPLY.
It In Ierlve.l rrlneir.y from Spain anil
l,orlt!e:lI-
The American cork supply comes
chiefly from Portugal. Spain, and Italy.
In the Tinted States there are i;.-t
twenty cork manufactories, and it i--is:
aid that there is nt one of thcM'
ojH-n to the public for inspection, while
half a do:.eii importers handle all the
material that enters tliis country.
France is evidently very desirous of
utilizing her -ork oak fore.-ts in Al
geria and .rea'tiii!,'' a market in this
western republic for her product. Al
geria is in area almilt the si.- of the
state of Illinois. The birvrest s pply
of cork has probably been fnrtiislie.l
ly Fortuiral and Spain. The tree i-
lirst "barked" in its native f.nvt;
when it is lietween the aires of t'ii U'.nl
twenty years, and this is repealed
every eipht or ten years thereaf.er.
The lirst yield is called " irrrin cork."
It is generally rmurli. wh.ile in quality
it is woody: it is principally eniploved
for taniiino; purios-s. 'i he m-coih!
"barkinir" is better, and the third is
generally held t. be the best. Th
barking takes place in the spring or
sumiiier. A tre which has x-'ii
barked in t his manner will live foi a
hundred and fifty years. The trees
iire from twenty to sixty feet in hei'til
and are somet iiiies liiree iect in dian:, -tcr.
The cork cut ters leave t!ie .o.
eni'd bark 011 the tree u:. til a protec
tive eoat has beeli fornieil nndereeat h.
and this makes a better layer for the
second and subsequent barkings, and
a better ami loiijrer life for the tr'e.
MENTAL FATIGUE.

III order to escaK' weariness in any
uinlertakin'r it is necessary to know
how far the physical ami mental sys
tem can endure strain. An Italian pro
fessor is said to have determined by a:i
apparatus the a;no'.i;i of .vort: wliii-!i
h-could do before he was stopped by
weariness. Such an apparatus would
be a valuable modern improvement,
and il is recommended that t he pro
fessor iiniue.l ia '. cly ta! e oat a patent
on his machine and introduce it f--rliie
beii-lit of an overworked American na
ti ii.
The latest theory of the cause of
weariness is the inability of t he 1 i-ratis
to keep the blood siit'iciciil 1 pt:n-- As
one - scientist says: Soin.-i hiiio- i!.--peiids
on the vhror of t'ie muscles

jM nver and son ict h iier on t lie readi
ness with which the heart r.p-itnls to
the preater strain upon it. but beyond
and above all these is he rca liness
with which the inteinal s-a vei; -fers
free the blood from tf jx'ison whi.-h
the uillsclcs are Miiiriicr into it. i 11
dne exertion is exertion in w hich the

It is in teres in: to know that

but rather increases it. Mental fa

The name "oranpe" i from the Lat
in "annim." meaniiip pohl or of polden
color. The fruit was oripinally a
small, bitter berry, jibo-.it the si.-i- of a
cherry and very seedy. It has been
cultivated in Hindustan from a very
remote H-rioil. and was taken from
that country to Arabia and I'ersia in
the eiphth or nint h cent uries.
In the tenth and eleventh centuries,
says the Iloston Clohc. the horticult

after its introduction into the t'n-st-nanied

survival and an addition to the old
auti-.Mahometan tradition, viz.: that
the use of the fruit would cause the
partaker to enroll himself with the
lepionsof Islam whether lie desired to

The Spaniards finally attempted ami
succeeded in cultivatinp it in their
West Indian colonies and from there it
found its way into Florida, t'eiitnil

AslH-stos is a mineral fiber of the
horn-blende variety. It derives" its
name from a !reok word w hich sipni

ancients were familiar with its uses
and the modes of obtaininp it. yet,
stranpe to say, always alluded to it as
a vepetable production. It was used in
all their funeral rites, but particularly
w here cremation was practiced; the
corpse Ud'ip wrapped in an asln-stos
cloth so as to keep the ashes of the
dead person from minplin- with those
of the wood or other combustibles us-d
in incineration of the remains. The
people of Kpypt and many other coun

royal and wealthy classes, made
towels, napkins, tablecloths, etc., of
asliestos. and cleaned them by throw

CLIMATE AND LONGEVITY.
t'olil Couotrlew Are I'oodadf lama;
Life.
Coli! climates are always productive
of a vigorous animal existence. 1
know this to be a fact from rec-ent
t-tu.lies that I have made of various
climatic condition and their effect.
Now I have found that the lifo of peo
ple living in a tropical climate is com
paratively short. Not only their physi
cal life but their life as a nation is af-f,-teil
by this curious law. In evi
dence of this latter assertion I can
point to all the short-lived frovernments
that have arisen and fallen in the
heated zones of the new continent.
Kvcryiiody is aware of this constant
revolutions and uprising's in Mexico,
Central America and the South Amer
ican republics. Whereas North Amer
ica, throughout the temperate regions,
has remained for a hundred years but
little disturbed.
Africa is a constant battle-ground
for the blacks, aud southern Asia,
and southern Europe have ever
lieen the scene of internecine
ooutlicts. On the other hand, Russia
has remained undisturbed for centu
ries, the people twing- apparently
calmed by the cool climate conditions.
So, Urn, with Sweden and Norway,
Denmark and ihe north tiertnan prov
inces. There nations as individuals
are phlegmatic. They are not easily
moved to resentment except where the
burdens Imposed are of the most tyran
nical nature. So it happens that the
governments have lived on for centu
ries, their kings tracing their ancestry
back through the ages until they lose
their record in the barbaric period of
the lloman domination. The Scandina
vians (which term comprises as a type
name most of the inhabitants of north
Europe) are long lived, many of them
reaching the extreme old age of one
hundred and fifteen years.
The Scandinavian records are full of
the names of men who lived to exceed
ing old age, while the remarkable
names of the southern nations are al
wa; s coupled with the statement of an
early death.
MAKING HISTORY.
Fraarr'i Queer Blunder About American
lioa;raplijr.
It is always amusing to note the
blunders made by European writers in
treating of American affairs and inter-cstini-
to speculate as to how much of
the world's history has been based upon
similar errors, says the Youth's Com
panion. A French almanac, for in
stance has the following entry opposite
the date April 11: "lMU, declaration of
war between North aud South Amer
ica." This recalls the fact that, during th?
civil war, a Parisian journal contained
the astonishing news that "a decisiv
engagement is momentarily expected
between the uorthern fleet drawn up
on the Mississippi river aud the
southern fleet, drawn up on the Ama
zon V
How much a great American reputa
tion amounts to in France may be in
fernal from the announcement made
by the I'aris Figaro in connection with
the recent marriage of Miss McClellan
at I'aris that the bride was "the
daughter of Gen. JJeorge MacClellan,
who, for a certain time, commanded
the confederate army in the American
civil war."
It is not alone in France, however,
that similar blunders are made. Not
l.riir airo a "Eife of Admiral Farragut"
having I it-en published a notice of the
Ixxik was published in the Iondou
Athena-um. one of the leading literary
papers of England, in which it was
stated that "the Eife of Farragut had
Vou compiled from documents In-longing
to the family of this celebrated ad
miral of the confederate states."
HUNTING THE PUMA.
A llugcrout Neljhbor to Have la a Oar It
I'orent.
The Cosmoiiolitau Magazine has a
description of the puma from an old
hunter, which is scarcely calculated
to encourage any except the most
har.ly in seeking that treacherous
animal.
You have traveled far. The sun
goes down. You build a fire aud cook
your meat, and then good tea and
the ttihiic. It is pleasant. You hear
the loon crying on the water, or the
last whistle of the heron up the pass.
The lights in the sky come out and
shine through a thin mist; there is
nothing like that mist, it is so tine and
'.oft. You are sleepy. You bless the
good t'od.- You stretch pine blanches,
wrap iu your blanket and lie down
to sleep. It is all quiet. As you sleep,
Kouiething comes. It glides along on
its lo lly like a snake.
It is a pitj- if you have not ears that
feel the whole lody as ears. For
there is a swift lunge, a snarl ah,
yon should hear it! The thing has
you by the throat, and there is an end.
To kill the puma you must watch,
always watch. Yo will see his yellow
eyes sometimes in a tree. You will
hear his breath at night as you pre
tend to sleep, and you wait till you
see his foot steal out of the shadow;
then you have him.
From a mountain wall 3-011 watch
in the morning, and when you see him
you follow and follow, and do not rest
till you have found him. You must
never miss fire, for he has great
strength and a mad tooth. Hut when
you have got him he is worth all.
A ROYAL SITTER.
Tlie Trouble a lhoto(rapher Once Had
with t!ie Frnent tuiiwmr of (ieruianr.
"The worst sitter I had was, I think,
the present emperor of Germany," said
Frith, the photographer, to a represen
tative of the Westminster Gazette.
"He was a small boy of four or five
and a regular young Turk. At the
wedding I had noticed him working
hard all the time to pick out a precious
stone which was set in the hilt of the
dagger he wore with his Highland
dress. He accomplished the feat suc
cessfully, the stone rolled on to the
floor, and, strange to say, was never
found again. When the little lad came
to sit to me I fouud it quite impossible
to keep him quiet for two minutes to
gether. He was like quicksilver.
"At last 1 hit upon the plan of giv
ing him a corner of the canvas on
which I was painting and let him daub
that over. This kept him quiet for a
while. One morning, however, he
managed to smudge his ace all over
with the colors with which he was
working, and he was in great distress.
'Never 'mind, I said Ut him, Ve can
easily rub that off, and I began to ap
ply a little turpentine to his" green
checks. Unfortunately he had a little
sore spot on his face, and when the
turpentine got into it you can imagine
that it w as rather painful. The boy
yelled like mad for a few minutes, but
the thought that he need not appear
on the scene with his face brilliant
with various oil colors aoon quieted
him."
A I'hlloaopner I torn.
An Indiana maiden four years old
was driving along a prairie road with
her father and a six-year-old brother.
The brother, who is of an anxious turn
of mmd, was in great distress at the
sight of an ox that was calmly devour
ing a large pile of seed potatoes in the
corner of a field. "O, papa, top," he
said. "We ought to tell the people in
the house." "Do sit still. Buddy," put
in his more philosophic sister. "I t isn't
ve ox nor we potatoes. -Chicago Tribune.
