RHEUMATISM Rheumatism, docs not come on In n causes that produce It work silently in the system for years. This insitHons disease becomes intrenched in the blood, and some exposure to cold or dump weather, or slight indiscretion brings on an attack. Poor digestion, stomach troubles, weak Kidneys, torpid Liver, and a general sluggish condition of the system are responsible for Rheumatism. Food souriug in the stomach poisons the blood, tbe failure of the Kidneys and Liver to act properly leaves waste matter and Impurities in the system, which, coining in contact with the natural acids of the body, form uric acid. This is absorbed by the blood, and as it penetrates to the muscles, nerves and bones produces the terrible pains and aches and other disagreeable symptoms of Rheumatism. Life is mode a torture by its excruciating pains, nerves are shattered, the health un dermined, and if the disease is not checked it breaks down the strongest con litutlon. It will not do to depend ou plasters, liniments, etc.; such treatment Is helpful in easing the pain and reducing the inflammation, but does not reach, the blood where the real trouble is locntcd. S.

It was completed in 1842, costing the state about $350,000. It Is built entirely :f Slug Sing marble, quarried and cut within the prison walls, The old capitol being inadequate to accommodate tbe increasing business H tbe state, this additional buildup vas planned and built and is still used :r tbe offices of tbe stute comptroller, :he stute engineer and surveyor and tbe itnte banking department. In u spirit of economy it was decided to have us much as possible of the work done by the prisoners from the material found within the prison walls it Sing Sing, fairly good material, too, but not the best, us, It Is a soft marble, us evkleuced by the wear which now shows so plainly In the steps and by the crumbling of some of tbe stones from exposure to the weather. All the mute- rial was cut to completion within the walls of the prison under such plans thut when shipjjed to Albany there would be no further work necessary except practically to lay one stone up on uuother, and so on until the whole was assembled in the completed bulid l"g. To accomplish this detailed plan a system of marking tbe stones was nec essary. The plans were carefully made and a system of marking elaborately laid out by the architect in charge, who found In the prison ut Sing Slug a life prisoner whose record showed hlra to be nu engineer of the highest ability uud who seemed as compcteut as auy man In the country to curry out the work to be done in tne prison, and nat urally he was not unwilling to follow his chosen profession In preference to doing the. manual labor of cutting or quarrying stone. So, following tbe spirit of economy referred to above, tbe plans in detail und the system of mark ing wero turned over to him and the whole work ut that end given over to his full superintendence and absolute control. In due time tbe stones In their vari ous shapes and siaos and in quantity for the whole building were delivered In Albany and tho work of construc tion commenced In accordance with the plans und system of marking original ly furnished. With the very first stone there was trouble. It not only did not fit tbe place, but none of the stones marked to adjoin it fitted It, and, fur ther, it did not seem ever hitended for tbe place the number indicated. In vestigation brought out that the stones wero not of the sizes or Bhnpes speci fied and shown on tbo plans, und, us to tbo system of marking, It was quite evident that tbe stones brought togeth er by It had no relation whatever to each other. Tbe bewildered architect hardly knew whether he was n candidate for the aBylum or possibly for Slag Sing. How over, a careful verification of his plans and his marking system proved their correctness, and the blame fell square ly upon the civil engineer, tbe life pris oner. He was questioned, taken severe ly to ta8k and roundly rtl for his in competence and threatened and abused. Ho met it all calmly. "It looks to me luce a mighty good joke on you fellows. Anyway It Is tbe beat Joko I have heard since 1 came to Slug Slug." As to their continued threats be said: "What can you do to a life prison er?" Finally, in answer to tbe abuse and Blurs as to bis capabilities as an en gineer, be said bo had changed the plans both in dimension and shape wuero they had diverged from purity of style, aud tbe system of marking he had changed altogether, but if tboy could find some one who understood bis system the bulldln'g would go up complete and perfect excelling tbe original plan. "But," he added, with a grin, "you can probably get out new Btone a good deal quicker than you can work out my system." Then the state o flic la Is said, "We will take you to Albany and force you to put up the building." He said, "No." They pointed out tbe advantage of life In Albany for a time In preference to Slug Sing. Ho said, "No." They tried to bargain with him. He said, "Secure my pardon and I will Btand by you until the building Is complete." They offered to have him pardoned after he bad proved what he said by Qolshing the building. He said, "No." Then they Bald they would compel blm to do It anyway. He said he could be coin pe Wed to In prison, but not In Albany, and "jai vro in prison uioy couiu cumpei him to do only manual labor uuless he chaw and that tho price of his genius In grasping the opportunity that bad sojne his way was a full pardos.

Professor 1 E. Barnard beautifully illustrates th formation of a comet's tail by "suppos ing" thus: "Suppose, for example, that the nucleus of a comet is composed ol Ice. Then suppose the beat of the sun to be so Intense us to rapidly melt that portion of the ce globe exposed to th.1 action of its rays, which are strong enough to immediately convert It hit! vapor, which ascends toward the sun. "Imagine udw a fierce wind blowing out from the sun, causing the vapor which meets It to be whirled out Into space behind the comet. This will clearly Illustrate tbe theory of the for mation of a comet's tail, only that the nucleus of the comet Is not lee and the vapor Is not water vapor, neither Is the force which drives it away from the un a fierce wind." The unknown force hinted ot by the astronomer above quoted readily ex plains why a comet's tail, us a rule, points In an opposite direction to the ?un.
