When there 19 a falling off in flesh in
woman or man there is "something
wrong." And that something wrong is
generally a loss of nutrition due to dis
ease of the stomach and the other organs
oi ingestion anu
nutrition. Some
times this loss of
flesh is accom
panied by variable
appetite, but In
many cases the ap
petite docs not fail
and there may be
n constant desire
to eat Languor,
nervousness, irri-
tnbuity, sleepless-
iicss, arc symptoms
often associated
with this loss of
nutrition 'and fal

THE EABLIE3T BOOKS.
Theyfcre Decidedly Dlffernnt from
W tho Tomes of Today.
Frederic G. Kenyon, In Harper's Magaztno
A Greek book of tho uge of Pericles,
or u Latin book of the age of Caesar,
was very unlike the books to which wo
nre accustomed jiowudays. The ma
terial on which It was written was
papyrus, a fabric made out of the pith
of the ligyptlan water-plant of that
name. Tills gavo n smooth and pleas
tint surface for writing on with tho soft
reeds which were then In use; but un
fortunately it was not tough enough to
wlthstttnd the disintegrating influences
of time. In every country but one the
ovdlnury trials of books use, neglect,
damp Insects, and the like have
caused its complete destruction. It is
only In tho wonderfully dry climate of
Egypt that It has been able to resist
these agencies. During the Inst cen
tury, nnd Increasingly during the last
twenty-five years, researches in the
burled cities and cemeteries of Egypt
have yielded great quantities of mnnu
scrlpt upon papyrus mostly fragments,
it Is true, but yet sufficient to restore
to us several works of ancient liter
ature which had been supposed to bo
hopelessly lost, and to show us by ac
tual examples, dating as far back as
the beginning of the third century B.
C what an ancient book was like.
In another and more noticeable re
spect than material, ancient books dif
fered from modern. The papyrus wns
not cut up into leaves ana bound into
volumes, like a modern book, but was
manufactured in long rolls, which tho
reader unrolled as he progressed
through the work he was reading. The
length of these rolls might be anything
up to about thirty feet, but rarely ex
ceeded this limit; the height would nor
mally be about nine or ten inches. A
roll of these dimensions would contain,
in moderate-sized writing, an ordinary
Greek play, or two books of the Iliad;
but collected editions of an author's
work were impossible, except In the
form of 11 great quantity of separate
rolls. Tills fact goes far to explain why
so many works by writers of the high
est reputation have failed to come down
to us.
The writing on a papyrus roll was
divided into columns, the width of
which was regulated by the length of
the verses, if the work transcribed was
In poetry, but in the case of prose
works it rarely exceeded three inches.
Papyrus continued to be the princi
pal material in use for books of the
best quality until the fourth century of
our era; but about that time vellum,
.which hnd previously been employed
mainly for inferior purposes, begun to
supersede It, and thenceforward- the
best copies of books were written upon
this much more durable material.
WILL NEVER BE PAID.
One Debt That Would Doubly Ex
haust the World's Wealth.
From tho New York Piots.
Not all the coined money of tho world
would be sufficient to pay, with Interest,
the debt contracted by King Edward
III, of England In 1310, when he bor
rowed an Immense sum of an Italian
money lender named Peruzzl.
The wars with Scotland had cost.
King Edward a big sum of money, and
when he decided to make war on France
he was compelled to appjy to the head
of the Peruzzl family, with whom he
was on very intimate terms. He ob
tained 2,400,000. The Peruzzi's want
ed the money after a few years had
passed, and sent to King Edward for
it.
But that monarch begged them not to
mention the subject again. He event
yally postponed payment for nn Indefi
nite period, and for this masterpiece of
policy he was look upon by the people
us a genius.
Many of the descendants of the Pe
ruzzl family still live in Italy, and
since 1310 they have kept up commun
ication with tho British government on
tho matter of their little bill. But
even at a very moderate rate of In
terest the sum Of 2.400.000 bnm-nwori
In 1340 would now have reached such
colossal proportions that If the wealth
of the world were gathered together
it would not bo sufficient to pay hulf
of it. The total would run Into twenty
five figures.

DECISION FOR
DEPENDANTS
1
(Concluded from rage 3.
plant for $12,000 nnd tho Bceond pnrty
Jointly agreed to pay for It. 2. Tho party
of tho second pnrt ns a further Under
taking ninung thcmsolvcs, for their own
benefit and convenience, agreed to form
a corporation nnd to subscrlbo to Its cnpl
tal stock, iui well ns to furnish milk. It
is claimed that because this nrraimo-
ment wns entered Into by tho defendants
and Included In the ngroemnt between
the Lumber company aim them, It Atwn
not follow that their obligation to tho
plaintiff was changed or modified In any
way. We think this Is a fair utntcment
of plaintiff's contention. Wo have no
doubt that an agreement, iiuch as tha
plaintiff maintains tho Instrument now
l.cforo us is, 'icould bo made. But, was
it made In the present case, und was It
so understood by tho parties?
Tho plaintiff's position is sustained to
a great extent in tho caso of Davis, ct ill.
vs. Shnfer, et nl GO Fed. Rep. 701 (1S!2).
This ciiso seems to stand alone. It was
disapproved In Davis, ot nl. vs. Barber,
et nl., St Fed. Rep. 143, In the following
lunguugc: "I nm nwaro that the fore
going views are In conflict with tho
opinion of the circuit court for tho West
ern district of Missouri In tho case ot
Davis vs. Shnfer (supra) recently de
cided by Judgo Phillips. I havo carefully
examined tho manuscript opinion In this
caso und I llnd myself unable, to concur
In tho conclusion there reached." And In
Davis, ct al., vs. Jones (suprn), tho court
of appeals snys:
"It Is worthy of notice, however, that
In the case' Inst cited, Davis vs. Shnfer,
tho conclusion reached that tho contract
Imposed a joint liability, wns influenced,
to Homo extent, by tho vlow ontortalnod
by the court of tho effect of a local stat
uto of tho stato of Missouri. (Revised
Statutes of 1SS9 , sec. 23Si), whero the
contract was executed."
An examination of the cases In other
stntes'convlnccs us that tho weight of
authority Is with tho defendants. It docs
not seem that a contract llko the ono bc
foro us tins been tho subject of adjudi
cation in Pennsylvania. Riddle vs. Ste
vens, 2 S. & R. 53G, relating to subscrip
tions for tho support of a pustor, Is cited,
hut It has no particular applicability to
tho caso at bar. Davis vs. Bedford, 70
Mich. 120, deals with a contract of a
similar character to tho one under con
sideration. It was for tho erection of a
creamery, which Davis and Rnnkln
agreed to build "for tho sum of $4,500,"
payable in two Instalments. This clause
follows: "Tho subscribers thereto agrco
to pay the above amount for said cream
cry when completed, tho subscribers
agreeing to accent tho same ns soon ns
completed." Tho contract has tho fol
lowing provision: "After said organiza
tion (referring to the incorporation) is
completed, said company shall issue stock
to tho subscribers, to tho amount of their
subscription hereunto annexed." The
court In stating tho facts says: "This
contract was subscribed by tho names of
all tho defendants, nnd opposlto their
names appears tho amount of each Indi
vidual subscription, varying In amount
from $23 toSOO each." Tho court con
strued this contract as a whole, citing
Dwolley vr. Dwolly, (supra), and held
the obligation was several.
CLAIM OF COUNSEL.
Plaintiff's counsel claim that the clause
specifically limiting the liability of the
subscribers to tho amount of their in
dividual sub'crlptlons account for tho rul
ings In tho Michigan case, Davis vs. Mur
ray (supra), und In tho Nebraska case,
Davis vs. Ravenna Co. (supra). We do
not think so. While the clause men
tioned made the question of liability
clearer, it did not control tho decisions.
Tho contract in each caso wns construed
a a whole, and in the last Michigan caso,
tho former case decided in 70 Mich., cited
above, Davis vs. Bedford, whero thero
was no such clause ns the ono referred
to, Is approved nnd sustained.
" Another case, very similar to tho ono nt
bar, Is Gibbons vs. Grlnsel, 70 Wis. 303.
Tho contracts in both cases are substan
tially alike.
Other authorities referred to in the
opinions ot tho Judges in the cases cited
nro along tho sumo lines nnd interpret
similar agreements In tho samo way. We
do not think it is necessary to continue
the discussion to any greater extent.
It would bo premature for us now to
decide tho exact nature of tho obliga
tion created by tho contract upon which
tho present suit la 'based. Whether suit
may bo brought ngulns.t each individual
subscriber to tho stock for tho amount of
his subscription, or whether suit should
bo brought ngnlnst the corporation con
templated by tho agreement, If such a
corporation was formed nnd received tho
benefit of tho contract: thes.o nro ques
tions which are not before us now. Wo
tlmply decide thut tho contract in tho
cuso nt bar does not impose a Joint lia
bility upon tho defendants.
It was admitted at tho argument that
several of tho defendants wero served In
an adjoining county and that no general
npeparanco had been entered for them.
It wns understood that as to these de
fendants their names should bo stricken
from tho record. Counsel may submit an
order covering this point.
Now, August 11. 1902, tho several de
murrers In this case uro sustained nnd
Judgment thereon is given for defend
ants, with costs.
