The table is one of great interest, and should be studied by those who take A THRILLING MINUTE. 1H Mide Up luo Intensity of Terrer What It Lacked In Time. The alveuture of a contributor to Sclence lasied but a minute, but it made 1p in Intensity of terror what it lneked in duration of time. The writer tells his own story: Some years ago while I was making researches In an exeavation near Frankfort, O., the center wall of the mound was undermined by the work- men, and 1 was struck by a mass of falling earth. [ had just stooped to examine a small bone which had been uncovered when earth to the amount of several cart loads dropped on me. No one else wag in the excavation, the men having gone to the top of the mound. The falling mass knocked me back- ward, and I fell with my head and shoulders on a small heap of earth, The falling wall of earth looked black to me, and I well remember the rush of wind it brought. At first I felt little pain, only intense pressure, which forced the buttons of my costume partly inside my flesh, My watch was pressed tight against two ribs which were broken. The skin on my forehead seemed cut, but it was the pressure of my hat forcing the flesh between the straw. The knife in my pocket seemed burning hot, Just under the small of my back was a large clod which gave me unendurable pain, as If my spine were slowly breaking. Then it stopped, and I felt nothing. Thoughts raced through my head like lightning, thoughts of the past, present and future. I remember trying in vain to move a hand or a finger. I was per- fectly motionless. My chest could not be inflated, and the downward pressure bad forced the air out of my lungs. I could move my chin and open and shut my mouth. I tried to keep my mouth closed to prevent its being filled, but it instinctively opened, and the earth fell fn. Then the assurance of strangling came to me, but I did not much care, It was just sixty seconds, the sur- veyor sald, before the men reached me and I felt the earth move slightly. A shovel struck my scalp and cutgne. It felt like redhot iron. When my head was uncovered the pressure on my body was so great the blood was forced to my head until my rescuers feared my veins would burst, 1 observed everything, but could not move. The partial paralysis lasted several days. 1 have never wholly re- covered from the effects of my adven- ture. I cannot enter a cave or stand pear a bank of earth without terrible sensations, WHAT THE HAIR TELLS. Auburn hair means a kindly, sympa- thetic nature.

The Way One Druggist Lightens the iis of His Customers, A pale, weak girl entered down. town drug store the other day. She seemed about to collapse. The propri- etor assisted her into a chair and pre- pared a mild stimulant for her. The druggist’s manner was so sympathetic that a little later she confided to him that she suffered with her heart and feared she had not much longer to live. “Heart disease?’ inquired the drug- gist genially, “Why, I have heart dis- ease myself; have had it for years. That's nothing. 1 don’t worry myself about it. I fon't look like a man with a load on his mind, do I7 You prob- ably think that you are liable to drop off any time. On the contrary, any doctor will tell you that the average person with heart disease generally lives to a good old age. The very care that a sufferer from heart disease takes of himself or herself is calculated to lengthen the years indefinitely. You gee, a man with a weak heart naturally is careful of himself a bit. He doesn't commit any excesses, never overdoes anything, lives In moderation and thus keeps his vitality unimpaired. That's all you have to do—just take care of yourself. What's the use of worry- ing?’ The drugglst's cheerfulness was In- fectious, the genial interest of his talk made depression appear foolish, and the girl soon began to look more hope- ful and even smiled. After the drug- glist had garly chatted with her awhile she nd, walked out of the store with a firm step. This druggist, though he would scorn the idea If suggested to him, Is a bene- factor to humanity. He is a bellever in the power of cheerfulness, and the good that he does in his peculiar way is not easy to estimate, Not passes that he does not impart his message of the cheerful life to individual. He makes all others’ ailments his own and points out the uselessness of worry. A man will come in bent and suffering. Perhaps be confides to the druggist that he lhns kidney disease and fears his days numbered. The druggist immediately informs him that there is no eause for alarm; he has had kidney trouble himself for, oh, 80 many years, and has no intention of dropping off. That druggist, In the course of a week, probably will acknowledge that he Is afflicted with every allment except housemaid’'s knee. He makes every complainer feel better. He falrly radi- ates good cheer and optimism. It is his belief that half the sufferers in the world have complaints that bright spirits will overcome. But even when {hey have a real disease It 1s his theory that a little cheerfulness doesn’t hurt and that the malady is only aggra- vated by constant depression. He makes it his mission in life to drive rose # a any some despairing are a. LINGERING COLD.
