BELLINI'S BEST OPERA.
"Norrrfa" Waa Hissed at First The
Composer's Death.
Bellini was born in Sicily. lie died
at Putenux, near Paris, under Some
what strange circumstances, in 1835.
Baron Ayme d'Aquno wrote to a friend:
"I rode out to call on him; but, as usu
al, the gardener of his house refused
to let me in. Later on in the day there
was a heavy storm, and at about 5
o'clock I once again tried to see him.
As no one answered the bell I pushed
against the gate, and It gave way, so I
got Into the house. I found Bellini on
a bed, abandoned by all. At first I
thought that ho was asleep. When I
touched his hand, it was quite cold, for
he was dead." .
A curious letter is published, written
by him when his "Norma" was hissed
at the first representation: "I have Just
returned from the Scala. Would you
believe it? 'orma' was hissed. I no
longer recognized the friendly Milan
ese, who received with enthusiasm and
delight the 'II Plrata,' 'La Stranlcra,'
'La Sonnambula.' I have deceived my
self. I hnve made a great mistake. All
my progenitors have been wrong. All
my expectations have been Illusions.
But, I assure you from my heart, there
are morsels In It that I shall be proud
If I can ever excel. Did not the Ro
mans hiss 'L'Olymptado' of tho divine
Pcrgolcsl? In all theatrical produq-,
tlons tho public is the supreme judge.
The public will reverse Its Judgment.
It will recognize that 'Norma' is the
best of my operas." Argonaut,
Where Parliament Failed.
According to all accounts, the Cam
eron hlghlanders militia are a fine
body of meu physically. Not long ago
four of them occupied the least crowd
ed seat In a full compartment on a
Scotland railway. Just us the train
was moving off a diminutive little cler
gyman jumped Into the compartment
aud tried to edge himself in between
two of tho hlghlanders. Not finding
it very comfortable, ho turned to the
one on his right and said: "Sit up,
please. You know that, according to
act of parliament, the seat holds five."
The highbinder looked at him for a
moment aud then replied: "That may
be a rlcht enough for your kind, sir,
but shalrly ye cauna' blame me for no
beln' constructed according to act of
parliament!"
'Contagion and Infection.
A contagious disease is one In which
tho disease producing organism goes
direct from the person having the dis
ease to a person who has not the dis
ease without passing through au inter
mediary medium, as in tuberculosis,
for example. Malaria, on the other
hand, is an infectious disease, because
the organism which produces it Is tak
en from a person by a mosquito, re
produces Itself In the mosquito and is
transmitted by the mosquito which
may never have been in contact with
tiio person by whom the original or
fimlsm was given off. New York

ANGER IS DANGEROUS.
It Wrecks the Whole System and
Tends to Shorten Life.
It Is well known that a violent fit of
temper affects the heart Instantly; and
psycbophyslclsts have discovered the
presence of poison In tho blood Imme
diately after such outburst. This ex
plains why we feel so depressed, ex
hausted and nervous after any storm
of passion worry, Jealousy or revenge
has swept fhrough the mliid. It has
left In Its wake vicious mental poison
nnd other harmful secretions In the
brain and blood.
There Is no constitution so strong
but It will ultimately succumb to the
constant racking and twisting of the
nerve centers caused by an uncon-.
trolled temper. Every time you be
come angry you reverse all of the nor
mal mental and physical processes.
Everything In you rebels against pas
sion storms; every menfal faculty pro
tests against their abuse.
If people only realized what havoc
Indulgence In hot temper plays in
their delicate nervous structure, if
they could only see with the physical
eyes the damage done as they can see
what follows In the wake of a tornado,
they would not dare to get angry.
When the brain cells are overheated
from a fit of temper their efficiency Is
seriously impaired, If not absolutely
ruined. The presence of tho anger poi
son, the shock to the nervous system,
is what makes the victim so exhausted
and demoralized after loss of self con
trol. Orison Swett Marden In Success
Magazine.
THE BACK OF THE NECK.
Make
It Proof Against Drafts
and
Colds In the Head.
"When I was a boy," said a doctor,
"I didn't believe In drafts. I thought
that they who imputed colds to drafts
were cranks. But one November
night at a concert I felt all the even
ing a strong draft on the back of my
neck. It was so strong it resembled a
suction pump. 'Now,' said I to my
self, 'we'll see if this draft will give
yours truly a cold.' " .
lie shuddered.
"For a week," he said, "I was laid
up with so vile a cold that I couldn't
breathe save with my mouth open.
And now I am satisfied that nine out
of every ten colds are solely due to a
draft on the back of the neck.
"I know how to prevent such colds.
Hence I may practically say that I
know how to prevent all colds. It is a
fact that none of my patients, thanks
to my method, know what a cold is.
"They learn from me to do this to
bathe the back of the neck every
morning in cold water. Thus the spot
becomes hardened. It becomes draft
proof.
"And when a new patient, peculiarly
sensitive to colds, visits me, my pecul
iar treatment is to blow on the back
of his neck with a bellows for several
days in succession. The bellows, in
conjunction with the icy douche, .frees
him from all future susceptibility.
Thenceforth his winters pass without
that horrid winter pest, a bad cold."
New Orleans Times-Democrat.
Colored Preacher's Text.
A colored man In Atlanta, Qa., is a
preacher on Sundays and a barber on
week days. One of his customers
makes it a rule to be first In the chair
on Monday morning, when he Is sure
of being entertained by a resume of
"Uncle Rastus' " Sunday dissertation.
At night the family always looked for
tho latest from the colored brother.
This was one of his recent effusions:
"Yesterday I took for my text 'Clean
liness am next to godliness,' and I
dun reach my climax wld dls argu
ment: 'Now, what day follows Sun
day? Why, Monday. Monday is
wash day in all well reg'lated fam

day; so, my bredden, that settles it
that the words of my tex' am true,
"Cleanliness am' nex' to godliness."'"

Too Much Quiet.
On one occasion the hustling and
energetic archbishop of York, Dr.
Maclagan, wrote to the vicar in an
outlying village suggesting that he
should lend his church for the purpose
of giving the clergy of the district a
"quiet day" for meditation and frater
nal reunion. The witty vicar of this
sleepy hamlet In the wolds promptly
replied:
My Dear Lord Archbishop Your very
kind letter to hand. But what the poople
In this village want most In their spiritual
life Is not a "quiet day," but an earth
