"To think that '1 am us good as every one else' puts a strain of confidence into me." "That, same reflection: 'I am as good as every one else,' is at the bottom of a great deal of our proverbial bad manners," was the reply. "Would it not be better to think 'every one else is as good as I am?' " It certainly 1h a commendable trait to bo self-reliant so fur as mate rial affairs are concerned, but there Is an equality of worth to be recognized in- others which is above the obliga tions to self.--Adn C.

Blood poisoning frequently occurs In cases of wounds from tile teeth or claws of animals, earpeclally those that feed wholly or In part on putrid flesh, and it Is ensy to understand that. In the cases of such species as eat only game of their own killing, there must be traces of their feasts, in the shape of shreds of animal matter, left ad hering to their claws and teeth to decay and become poisonous In time. It 1h for this reason that few men who have been "mauled" as- the Eng lish express it by lions or tigers ever recover from their injuries. Arguing along the same lines, il is possible that the number of deaths on record from the bite of the western skunk, or "hydrophobia cat," may be trnce- nble to blood poisoning rather than the rubies. The skunk seems to have a mania for biting people, but In this respect he is not unique. The Com mon house rat where allowed to be come overbold from their numbers, frequently nibbles at the fingers, eurs or toes of sleepers in dork rooms. But rats are mot wholly carnivorous by na ture and In consequence there is less danger In their bites. The eldest son of ftir Pryse Pryse a fox-hunting baronet of Cardiganshire, England died recently from blood poisoning, superincVuocd by the bite of u captive fos.
