Painless Deal*. " One of the moot common error*," any* Dr. Clarke, "is the idea tliat pain ami dying arc inseparable companion*. The truth ia they rarely gii together. Occasionally, the act of dissolution is a pamfnl one,bat this is an exception to the general rule. The rule is that uncon sciousness, not pain, attends the final act, Convulsive, twitching*, livid fea turos, gurgling in the throat, and simi lar ghastly symptoms which mark the last moment, are only exhibition* of un conscions automatic action. The testi mony of the dying, so long as they are able to give any testimony, is that their suffering* do not increase as the termin ation of life approaches, but, on the con trary, grow less," The following incident illustrates the truth of this remark, and ao far as a sin gle instance is of value, eouftrms what has been said as to the painlessness of dissolution. A medical friend, whom 1 attended professionally iu his illness, was a victim of the most painful disease. He was aware of its incurable character. ■Supported by an intelligent faith in thai ana immortality, he prepared himself with admirable courage and unfaltering trust for the final change. In conse quence of continual and severe paiu, he was ohligcvl during the last few mouths of his life to take opium daily. He sent for me one night soon after midnight. A brief examination was sufficient to show that the cud was uear. ••' Do these symptoms mean perfora tion ?' asked Dr. . "' They do,' was the reply. " • Then I have reached tne end of the chapter,'he quietly added, 'how long shall 1 pro!abtv last f " ' That you Ln >w,' I said, ' as well as any one, perhaps twenty-four hour* or thir y-six hours.' Scarcely heeding the reply ho con tinued : " ' I am ready; bnt promise me this: that I shall not suffer pain if you can prevent it.' " The promise was given, of course, and 1 agree*! to see him every hour or two as loug as he lived. This being done I said to him: * Que thing remains how shall I ooiumunieate with you when, at . the very close, the time comes that you cannot indicate whether you suffer or. not?' " After a little talk the following sig nals were agreed npou: He was to indi cate a negative answer, or no, b> raising the forefinger! ami affirmative answer, or yes, by raising the forefinger and the one next it also. One finger was no, two fingers, yes. Having arrange*! this matter, he took rather more than his habitual dose of opium, and was soon comparatively qniet. The pa n did not return. For twelve or fifteen hoars he appeared cinch as usual; conversed with his family and friends, and was cheerful and serene. Then as nature's anesthetic ix-gan to act, he became dull and heavy, lu answer to retxsated in quire* as to pain, he constantly replie*! in the negative. At length he answere*! less readily. For an hoar or so before death he answere*! only by the aignal of his fingers which had been agreed upon, and by that signal he replied quickly and intelligently. Fifteen minutes after dis solution 1 "asked him, 'Do you suffer pain ?' He instantly made the negative signal by raising the forefinger. After this he made no sign, bnt slept peaceful ly to the eud." A Short Storr of Paris Life. The adventures of Jean Baptiste Roussel make one of the strangest chap ters in the criminal records of Paris. He was articled to an attorney at Lille, made an advantageous marriage, and opened an office at Tourcoing, where he was known as a cold, methodical, con scientious business man and a model husband. *At Brussels, where he passed four days every week, he was a reckless financier, a bold speculator, a bon vi vant, and a "fast" man. Thus the notary lived from 1868 to 187-1, when he turned his eyes toward Pans. There was a notary's office for sale at Conrbe voie, a suburb outside the capital. He purchased the business and settled there. To inspire confidence he com bined luxury with piety. He had a splendidly furnished house, and kept open table; but he was verv strict abont lasting and praying, and Lad an altar with burning tapers fitted np in his bed room. The good people were easily taken in, and deposited their money and securities with him to the extent of sev eral hundred thousand franca. At Conr bevoie he was remarkable for his sobrie ty and piety, bat in the center of Paris he figured among the worst rakes. When his credit was exhausted he racked his brain to supply his wants. A yonng man named July, son of a policeman, was released from jail, where he had served a term for passing himself off as a prince of Morocco, under the title of Ben Ali Guenaori. Joly again assumed the title, and, in order the better to en trap his victims, took to himself a secre tary. The person employed by this sham prince as his scribe was none other than the whilom secretary of M. Forneryxl, one of the ex-presidents of the Swiss confederation.' Ronssel made the acquaintance of these two gentle men, and the trio formed an association for raising funds to enable Ben Ali Guen aori to recover the lost throne of his an cestors. At the same time they organ ized a society for utilizing the sweep ings of Paris. While they were making dilpes of the credulous, and amusing themselves at the pnblic dancing -rooms and skating palaces, the notary business at Courbevoie was rapidly going to rain, and at length the crash came. Ronssel, finding it impossible to hide the state of his affairs any longer, proclaimed himself bankrupt, with liabilities amounting to 850,000 francs, and assets nil. The inquiry set on foot in behalf of the number of pool persons rained by the notary's profligacy, led to his arrest. His bearing in court was characteristic of the man; he feigned injured inno cence in a manner worthy of Tartuffe. However, with that excessive mercy svith which most French juries temper their justice, he was given the benefit of extenuating circumstances, and, al though frund guilty of embezzlement, he got off with five years' imprisonment. tzar and Fisherman. The Russian province of Bimbirsk, which is now the chief sufferer by the famine that, is ravaging Eastern Russia, was the scene of a very picturesque episode some time ago. In the course of one of the Czar's periodical journeys to the South, he was descending the Volga, from Kazan to Saratoff, through the country of the famous "Volga fishermen," whose strange mode of life has furnished material for one of the best of Russian romances. A little be- low the town of Simbirsk a voice was heard hailing the steamer, and a fishing boat, with three men in her, came along side. A rope was thrown to them, and the eldest, a fine-looking old gray-beard, scrambled on deck, leaving his two sous in the boat. Being asked what he watted,' he produced a magnificent sterlet—>a fish of the sturgeon tribe, estcemejl a great delicacy in Russia —and said that this fish being the finest efcaght in the Volga that season, he had decided not to sell it, bat to offer it as a. present to " Father Alexander Nikolaidvitcb," (the Czar). Several offi cers immediately went aft to announce the intended compliment to the em peror, Who at once called the old man to liim, arid,- shaking him cordially by the hand, tfimked him very heartily for his gift, wls!b he assured him shoald figure upon the imperial table that very even ing. The veteran mnttereu a few broken words of acknowledgment, and returned to his boat with the air of a man who nad nothing left to desire; but the Czar, though tar too considerate to offer any direct equivalent for the present, took care to Jtequite it soon after with a new boat and a large stock of nets of the best quality.

The New York Ihiar 1 of Health has published the following rules for the care of children during the hot season. Tliov will be found useful iu any locality. NTRSINQ or INFANTS. Over-feeding does more harm than any thing else; nurse an infant a mouth j or'two old every two or three hours. Nurse an infant of six months and : over five times iu twenty-four hour*, and no more. If an infant is thirsty, give it pure water or barley water; uo sugar. Ou the hottest days a few drops of whiskev mav be added to either water or food; tlie whiskey not to exceed a tea spoonful in twenty-four hours. IKKIUNO or INFANTS. ltoil a teaspooni'ul of powdered barley (ground iu eoffee griuder) and a gill of water, with s little salt, for fifteen iniu utes; struiti, then mix it with half as much boiled milk, add s lump of white sugar, aiae of a walnut, and give it luke warm from a nursing bottle. Keep Un tie and mouthpiece in a bowl of water wheu not in use, to which a little soda mav be adde*k For lufauts five or six month* old, give half barley water aud half boiled milk, with saltVtind a lump of sugar. For older lufauts give more niilk than bailey water. For iufants very costive, give oat meal instead of barley. Cook and straiu aa before. When your breast milk i ouly half enough, change off between breast milk and thia prepared food. In hot wreather, it blue litmus paper, applied to the food, turns red, the food is too acid, aud you must make a flesh mesa, or add a small pinch of bakiug soda. Infants of six months may have beef tea **r beef soup once a day, bv itself, or mixed with other food; aud when ten or twelve months old, s crust of br* ad and a piece of rare beef to suck. No child under two years ought to eat ' at your table. tlivc no candies, in fact, nothing tfiat • is uot eoutaiued iu these rules, without a doctor's orders. SCMMKK COMPLAINT. It come* from overfeeding, and hot aud foul air. Keep doors and window* open. Wash your well children with cold water twice a day, and oftener in the hot season. Never ueglect looseness of the bowels in an infant; consul? the family or dis peusary physician at once, and he will give voti rules about what it should take and Low it should be nursed. Keep your rooms as cool as p*ssible, have theai well veutilated, and do not allow auy smell to come from sinks, pyiviea, garbage boxes, or gutters about the house where you live. See that your apartments are right. Where au infant is cross an*l irritable in the hot weather, a trip on the water will do it a great deal of good (ferrvboat or steamboat), and may prevent cLolera infantum. storie* of Animal Sagacity Colonel Rice, now of General Miles* Fifth United States Infantry, was in company with a gentleman of our ac quaintance, ami the conversation natur ally turned on Indian warfare and frontier experiences, the day being the anniversary of the Custer massacre. Colonel Rice, who has seen service in Indian campaigns, related a striking anecdote concerning the sagacity of a horse which lost his rider in the fatal light. Some mouths after the battle a steamer having on board a portion of the Fifth Infantry was pursuing her voyage near the month of the Powder River, on the Yellowstone. The men on the lookout, oneof whom was the famous scout Buffalo Bill, who was scouring the surrounding country for indications of hostile Indians, saw in the distance an object moving slowly toward the boat. • Ther anxiously scrutinized it as it continued to approach, supposing that it might be the advance of a body of hostilea. Their suspicions were not lessened when they discovered it to be a horse, which might be that of a scout watching their movements or signaling the advance of the enemy in force. When the animal came to the bant of the nver, however, it was seen to be nn monnted and alone, and ou approaching the boat it neighed and pranced, mani festing every sigu of its joyful recogni tion. The boat was stopped, and when the horse was taken on board it was found to bear the brand, "Seventh Cavalry." The place where it was found was sev enty or eighty miles in a bee line from the scene of the Caster fight. The ani mal had evidently seen or heard the boat in the distance, and recojpixed it as a sign of civilization, and being tired of its free life in the wilderness, gladly embraced the opportunity of returning to its accustomed dnties. Another kin dred incident showing the strength of the second nature implanted by human companionship in domestic animals wa* related by Colonel Rice. Upon one of the steamers used in the campaign against the Sioux was a small dog be longing to General Miles, which one day fell overboard and was given up for lost Six months afterward as the same steamer was returning, the singular sight was witnessed of a smsll dog and a wolf trotting along the shore in friendly companionship. The dog was recognized as that lost overboard. The steamer was stopped and the dog taken on board, delighted to meet with his old friends, while the wolf on the approach of the vessel ran back into the bush. The in telligent animal hail apparently antici pated the return of the boat and patiently awaited his restoration to his master. —Boston Traveller. An Ant Balrv on a Virginia Creeper. The large leaves have been oonverted into dairy-farms by a colored family named Formica, otherwise known as black ants. The race to which this family belongs have for years been no torious as slave drivers and crnel task masters. They are extremely warlike and go into battle with regularly organ ized battalions, making slaves of their prisoners, who, yielding to the force of circumstances, become faithful servants, and procure all the food that is eaten by their idle masters. The family living under my veranda, although fierce and determined in tbeir nature, have ap parently devoted themselves exclusively to dairy farming, having numerous herds of cattle—cows and calveß—that are regularly milked by their owners, who drink the milk for their food. One of the larger leavea of the Virginia croeper forms a rich meadow, where from fifty to seventy-five cows aud calves can pas tare. These little domestic animals are known as aphides, aud it is certainly an extraordinary sight to see the black ant to whom they seem to belong go through the field and milk these little oows. He carries with him a long whip (anten na), with which he strikes the little docile animal on the back, when it im mediately deposits the milk that its mas ter eagerly drinks. When the pasture gives out, the ant carries his herd to another leaf or field ; an l when the little calves are old enough to be milked, he begins the education by biting them. It is carious to see the owner defend his flock from an intruder. Let another black ant come into the field—that is on to the leaf—and he attacks him with great fury, driving him from the prem ises at. once. All this and more too, my lens shows me of my neighbor's peculiar habits. I flud that if I venture too close and arouse the suspicion of the dairy man by placing my hand or finger near his little farm, that I am warned by a sharp bite to be more circumspect in my movements, and not to become too familiar on a short acquaintance. M. Fowel, who has given a very close study to the ants of Switzerland, re lates some very remarks Vile instances of an intelligence in these li i tie creatures which seems almost ncredible, and in fact it is almost impossible for any one to comprehend the absolute mental capacity of these tiuy, and for the most part industrious dwellers on the earth, unless he seeks through the medium of his own observation a closer knowledge of their habits andjmodes of life.— Egbert L. Viele., in Harper's Magazine. OKHUR OF HEAT WAVES. Where Ihe Hot Wm tier i onin I rewi. Now that the torrid season is prae tically over (aav* the New York IVitmrn ) one of the questions nsturslly suggested by the terrific heat waves which spaa medically fall np*m u* i*: "What ia their origin ? Are they duo to local infill onoea, or directly eusert, ia the sun a variable affirmative answer tft the last question might apjiear, there woiiUl really la* nothing atrnuge in sucli a fact. The fixed stai-s are kuowii to be gigantic suns, shining by their own light, and giving out, undoubtedly, enonuoi a quantities of heat, altl>*>ugh we are too distant to perceive it, and each i# prob ably the centre of an attendant system of planets, just as our aau is. Yet antoug these far-off worlds we tlud many subject to periodic variations f bril liauey, appeariitg with almoin clockwork regularity, or suddenly flaring np as uew stars uud aa quickly fa*liug away forever. One of the iu>st striking examples of this variability is the star Mtra, or "the wonderful," m the eonstel latum of The Whale. This singu lar IHKIV passes every year through a auccxaaiou of changes so extreme that for five mouths it is al>s*>lutely invisible, although, when at ita brightest, it equals iu splendor a star of the second magni tude. Its greatest brilliancy, too, is not always the same. It does not increase or diminish br the same gradation, nor are the successive intervals of ita varia tion* constant. iu fact whilw the aver age period of its changes is about 331 days, the star is also subject to mauy minor irregularities. Another variable sun of short period is Algol iu Perseus, At its brightest this star is commoulv of the second magnitude, but in less than four hours it falls to one of the fourth maguitude, and remains in that con dition for twenty niiuutos. Thou it be gins to increase iu brightness, and in three hours ami a half more has regained its rank as a second magnitude star, aud continues to hold it for two days and a half, when it again jtasacs through its periodic changes. These are by no means isolated case*. The number of stars kuowii to be variable i* large ; some of tliem pass through their round of variations in long and others iu short periods, aud all are apparently liable to fluctuations whioii conform to uo fixed rules. Several facts seem to indicate that our sun is a variable star of the same kind, though uot subject to such extreme changes as Mint and Algol. It is fright ful to thiuk what would happen if it dis aiq>eared altogether for four years, as Mint once did, or even if it went through such rapid variations of brilliancy a we see iu Algol ; but that sun doe* vary can hardly be doubted. In some years ita surface is found to be almost perfectly at rest. In others, ita forces seem to l>e in an extntordina-v state of activity, giving rise to enormous spots which undergo the most rapid and violent changes, and throwing out vast masses of incandescent gases to inconceivable distance*. How these changes are pro duced still remains a nivsterv. On the supposition that the sun s heat was kept up by a constaut stream of meteors fall ing into that body, it was natural to suppose that the variations in the amount of heat thrown off depended upon irregularities in the supply of its meteoric fuel. On the more generally accepted theory, however, that the tem peniture of the snn is sustained, not by enormous showers of meteors, but by the contraction of its own mass, these variations of heat and light are probably due to corresponding variations in the process of condensation. Judging from the outbreak and disappearance of solar spots, it seems probable that the sun goe* through these changes, on an aver age, every eleven years, though the time may extend to thirteen years, or be less than ten. Taking this period of eleven years, and remembering that Jupiter revolves around the sun in nearly the same peruxl, some astronomers have sought to show that the greater of the solar variations were due to the action of that planet, while others have argu ,-tl that the minor changes were canscd by the earth and Venus. These views, however, seem to rest ou no solid foun dation. But, whatever be the cause, it may be safely assumed from the periodic preva lence and disappearance of the spots and from other imlications, that the sun like so many of the stars, is really variable, passing through its phases in a period of about eleven years, and that to its variations.and not to local influences, must be ascribed those extraordinary outbursts of heat which make life intol erable in summer and are doubtless the origin of our exceptionally mild winters. It seems probable, too, that oar heated terms are likely to be much more severe in the years of sun-spot abundance, than in those when solar disturbances are few, though on this point there is no conclusive evidence. The fearful heat of 1872, however, oc curred near the sun-spot maximum, while the milder inflictions lioth of this snmmer and of 1876 happened near the sun-spot minimum. Future observa tions will no doubt throw much light on these obscure points, and it may even be that as our knowledge of solar phy sics increases we shall be able to predict tlie arrival of these unusual heat waves, and thus rob them of half their terrors. Fashion Itotes. Leather belts are again worn. New silver oombs are crescent shaped. Immense plaids are in preparation for next winter. Xnncloth is again coming into favor for black suits. Star fringe is made of tiny stars of different colors. The small mantillas are sometimes called capelines. The new bnnting for snmmer dresses has lace stripes. The newest long French gloves are laced up the arm. Alsatian bows are worn in dresses, hats and slippers. Yellow, in all its many ugly shades, continues in favor. Pale blue silesia is used to line or gandy muslins instead of Bilk. Sunshades with handles of Sevres porcelain are carried in Paris. The pretty little modest bonnets now worn are called the Ruth styles. Feather galloons, cuffs and vesta are making in Paris for next winter. Lace cuffs are worn on short elbow sleeves as well as on ooat sleeves. The undressed kid with embroidered initial is the favorite French glove. Beige-colored net, worked with rose buds, make pretty summer bonnets. A skilful imitation of a bee is used to decorate costumes intended for garden parties. Organdie muslin plaitings are used on shade hate to give them a dressy ap pearand. Seaside hats are trimmed with broad galloon, with a gay wing on the left snle of the hat. Pale pink and cardinal red are much nsed HI the costumes made for watering place wear. Blouses are'much worn, and one of the newest makes is called the "Car men " blouse. The rough straw braids are very much worn for demi-toilet, and are ex tremely stylish. Floral garnitures for bridal toilets are composed of white hawthorn and orange bloosoms and myrtle leaves. Extreme simplicity is affected this season for out-door toilets. Long trains and gay colors are reserved for house weai. Plain materia may be trimmed with that which is figured, or the style may be reversed. The former is more fash ionable. Swinging side pockets of velvet, with silver clasps, are suspended by silver chains to the waistcoat of n cutaway acket costumes. YYonl* of Wisdom. Honshu* sre cousin* to linrw.

Mining iu the Streets of New York. Some time ago a large jewelry estab 1 aliment in New York waa destroyed by fire ami the mass of dirt and rtibbiah in the cellar of the ruins waa leaaod to a couple of miners, who at once begau operations in this strange mine. Their success is recorded by a local paper as follows: Messrs. Peer and Roberta, who are conducting the mining operations on the site of the Bond street lire, aay that tho yield of precious metals fully realises their most sanguine expectations. "it pays," said Mr. Roberts, "better than any mine in California. We are taking ont abont 8-VX) a day, and have beon do ing so for some time. At first wo onlv got about 82-1 a day, but as we worked over to the other end tho yield lwcamo richer. We have collected between two , and three hundred ounces of gold and alxiut 5,000 onnces of silver." Mr. Peer said that they had made 810,000 in five weeks, and as they had washed only abont one-third of the accnmnlation of ashes within tho incloenre, he expected to realize as much as 832,000 on the completion of the work. Peer and Roberta are natives of California, and have spent many years in the gold fields of that State. Before they undertook the present work the contract had beou refused by all the refiners in the city and vicinity, and by a firm in Cincinnati, on the ground that they conld not rnnke it pay expenses, and the owners of the property were abont to sell the dirt for manure, for which the lime and ashea that it contained made it valuable, when Mr, Peer and his partner, who were in the city on other bnsiness, heard of tho opportunity and offered to nndertake the work. A Fire-Fighting Snake. An exchange save: Unlesa the Brazil ians are gnilty of very large atory tell ing, the snake they call the surncncn is braver far than the buffalo; for it is averred that, if a fire be kindled in the woods, these creatures glide ont of their hilling places, dash straight at the ob noxious thing, and scatters its embers with their tails; persisting, even though half-roasted, until the fire is utterly ex tinguished. If a man carries a torch near their hannts, thoy pass and repass him, lashing his legs until he drops it. when a summon immediately coils itself about, and puts oat tho flninc. A di- ' minutive terrier of our acquaintance used to act on the same principle, al though his hatred of fire was a limited one. He had no objection to it in its proper place, anil wonld complacently contemplate the parlor fire, let it blaze ever so merrily, without so much as a j wink; but the sight of a lighted piece of paper roused Tiny's ire, and set him barking grievouslv; and if the paper were thrown on the floor, he went for it at once, deftly contriving to atnmp out the flame without burning hia toes.

An Appalling Chine#* Care. It ia au undoubted fart that even dowu to the time of Sydenham, " mum my" wa* held to be a eea " brought up bv her father from childhood, well edu cated, and deservedly reputed for vir tue and intelligence." Iu the spring of last year her p*p fell ill, and wa* rnoet tenderly nnraed by his devoted daughter. At the end of six months the old gentleman became much worse, whereupon the young lady ent a piece of flewh (torn her arm and mixed it with hia medicine. Thi# remedy proved fatal to the pat'aut; and hw daughter, who had vowed to sacrifice her life for hia, poi- Noued herself on the same day that her father died. Tbia melancholy story of heroic filial piety, mingled with the moat harbarooa ignorance and supersti tion, may be instructively read in Inxtapoaitkm with a letter received in Shanghai from the Homan Catholic bishop of Bhanalii. Say* MonaigJior Munagatta, who ia a resident of Tai Yuen, the capital of a province in which famine ha* leen raging with the most fearful severity: "Until lately the starv ing people were content to fee*! on the dead; but now thev are slaughtering the living for food. '.The husband rata hia wife; parents rat their children; and in their turn son* and daughter* cat their dead parent*. This goe* on almost eTerv day." Cannibalism has in s more or Ira* marked d<-gn# been an attendant horror on the majority of great famines; bat the systematic eating of human fleali in a time of scarcity is hardly to be won dered at in a ooontry where young ladira of rank, education, and intelligence grow up to be twenty-one in the belief that a pieoe of hurnau flesh can be beneficial as an inward medicament. It may be meutioned that the imperial govern ment have sanctioned the election of the memorial to the daughter of the Canton magistrate, but that only very languid steps have been taken to alleviate the ravages of the famine. The Sheep * Sene of Hearing. It ia mud that ao acute ia the abeep a sense of hearing that she can distinguish the cry of her own lamb among as many as a tbonaand others, all bleating at the same time; and tho lamb, too, ia able to recognize it* mother's voice, even thonglr it be in the midst of a large flock. James Hoag, who was a shepherd as well as a poet, tells ns that it was very amusing to watch the sheep and lamls during the shearing season. While the sheep wore being shorn tlie lambs would be put into a fold by themselves, and the former would be sent to join their little ones as soon as the operation of shearing waa over. The moment a lamb heard its mother's voieo it would hasten from the crowd to meet her, but instead of finding the " rough, well-Had, oomfortable mamma " whieh it had left a Bhort tirno before, it wonld meet a strange and most deplorable looking creature. At tlie sight of this it would wheel aliout, uttering tlie most piteous cry of desp iir, and perhaps run away. Soon, however, the sheep's voice was heard again; the lamb would thereupon return, then once more bound away, and someti nos repeat this ootid act for ten or a dozen times before it fully under stood that tho shorn ewe was in reality its mother. Fncta ol Greet Intrrrei I* All—Time and Money Sarrt. All families arc interested in their family physician*. Thoy may take quack medicine* for alight ailments, but when true sickness* comes, then must come the family doctor. All are in terested then in this matter, and every family newspaper should giro them valuable informa tion and advice. Every otic knows that. In time* gone by, the great family doctor* were educated in New York and ]'hil*d*l|ifala, but that in these day* such i* no longer the case. The great cities of the West, Louisville, Chicago, Cincinnati, all contain medical colleges in which tho very beat education la to bo obtained. The eoet of this education it far less than it i* In Eastern oitiee ; a fact of great interest to parents and guardians, and to all interested in medical students. Indeed, ao important is thia money question to our readers, that we mast give them information which will save for themselves and their friends both time and money. In the Atlantic cities* student baa to pay for two conraes of lecture# 6155 each ; or 6SIO for the tVo. Hia diploma fee ia 699 ; all fees amounting to 6540. Bia board for two sessions ia 6250, or 6140 for each. Hia fees and aboard ooating 6020. These facts and figures are offi cial. In Louisville, Chicago, etc., where the modi- oal colleges are e<|Oaily as good as they are io New York, the student pays for his two coursss #(ls each, or •t0 for the two. His diploma fee cost #3O. All fees amounting to #l6O for tbe two sessions His board for two sessions costs #l4lO, or #|) for nosh. Tbe entire fees and board coaling #3) O. These figures are also official, and show that the student who goes to lha great oollegee of the West saves fully #3OO In the cost of a rtrst-elaa* medical education. If to this amount be added that of the increase cost of travel, It is evident that #4OO would be a moderate estimate of the amount saved by him. Indeed, students re siding lu the New Kngtand and Atlantic Htates can, by going to first-class medical colleges in the West, save from #3OO to #BOO In the cost of a medical education. Hurely these great money facts cannot fall to Interest every reader, and cause him to bring them to the attention of all studying or about to study medicine Parents and per capture will, we feel ears, thank us for this rainahis information. lint there are other fact* now to be given of even greater interest ; facts which show that a student can not only save #3OO It the coat of his inedtaa! eduoaUuu, but that ha oau gain one full additional course of lectures. That is to say, the student will. In seventeen months, ob tain three Instead of two ouureee of lectures, and save also #3OO.
