Preservation,
That well known lnrestlgutor of
psychological abstrusities, M. Fernanda
Slaznde, bag attracted much attention
t)y a discussion, of the query, "What
Is fear?" Tbe famous psychological
playwright, Alfred Cnpus, who has
dealt with the human emotion wltb
such fidelity In bis masterpieces,
writes:
"In general, I think that when there
is an accident or an illness one has not
a sufficient perception of tbe peril to
bare the feeling of fenr. Fear implies
a consciousness or danger nna the re
fusal or moral Impossibility to faco It
Fear consists In capitulating to the in
stinct of self preservation."
M. ,Vlctor Marguerite says: "Feur Is
physical trouble much mora than a
feeling" and can ultimately be over
come by force of will. M. Alfred Me
zlercs of the French academy consid
ers tbat fear is caused by some unex
pected danger. M. Pouchet of the
Academy of Medicine doubts whether
any man has ever been quite free of
fear for himself or for others.
M. Sicard, who Is n professor at the
Faculty of Medicine, considers fear or
courage to be the result of tempera
ment, training and thought Fear can
be partially eradicated by reasoning
and education, but It will never bo
overcome in its most acute form
nnmely, the instinct ot self preserva
tion. The conclusion la that It Is far
from being unanimously admitted tbat
fear 1b a ridiculous malady. Philadel

Batting Averagea to Juue 1st,
OUR FIRST NEWSPAPER.
It Was Publiahed In 1690 and Laated
Just One Issue.
The first newspaper printed in North
America was Publlck Occurrences,
which Issued its Hint and only number
In 1U0 In Boston. The publisher, Ben
jamin Harris, proposed to get It out
monthly, but the authorities came
down on tbe project "like a ton of
brick," and Harris bad to abandon tbs
scheme.
rubllck Occurrences was printed on
three pages of a folded sheet, tbe ptges
being 7 by 11 Inches in size. It was
'Triuted by K, Pierce for Benjamin
Harris at the London Coffee House"
iu Boston, The authorities alleged tbat
It contained "reflocttous of a very high
nature," and within twenty-four hours
of the appearance of the first number
the editor aud publisher was solemnly
warned that a repetition of tbe offense
would merit severe punishment
"That Memorable Occurrenta of Di
vine Providence not to be neglected or
forgotten, na they too often are," and
"That people everywhere may better
understand the Circumstances of Pub
llque Affairs, both abroad aud at
home," Harris founded his jouruul, and
It wtis a pity that be should have been
thwarted In his design "that tbe Coun
try Bhall be furnished once a month (or
If any Glut -of Occurrences happen
oftcner), with an Account of such con
Bldcrable things as have arrived unto
our Notice." New York World.
ANCIENT TOOTHPICKS. '
They Used to Be Mad of Silver and
Wera Worn In th Hat.
The employment of toothpicks la very
ancient In Grote'a "nistory of Greece".
wo flud that Agnthoclcs, "among tba
worst of Greeks," was poisoned by a
medicated quill handed to bini for
cleaning but teeth after dinner.
Toothpicks were In common use In
tba time of tbe Cncsars, Martial tells
us those made ot a chip of mastic wood
(lentlscus) are tbo best, but that If you.
run ahort of such timber a quill will
serve your purpose, and be ridicules an
old fop who waa In tbe hnblt ot dig
ging awny at hi sums with bla polish
ed lentlscus, though he had not a tooth
left tn bla bead.
Toothnleks occur early of silver, but
plecea of wood or of feathera with a
red end aa qullla In our day were most
usual. The toothpick la the Anglo-Saxon
totligare. Tbo old namo wns plclc
tooth. It waa Imported by traveler!
from Italy and France, and the using
of It wna long deemed an affected
mark of gentility. It waa worn aa a
trophy In the hat, and Sir Thomas
Overbury describes a courtier, the pink
ot fashion, "with a plcktooth in bur
hat"
Bishop Enrle says ot an idle gallant,
"His plcktooth bears a great part In
his discourse." Loudou Telegraph,
