Tho Coin Collecting; Craze. "The coin collecting craze begins In curious ways," said B. If. Collins, of the treasury department. The foremost colj lector of the United States, who died rn cently, beeamo a collector through an accidental desire to possess a big cent of the year of his birth, 17!)i). His collection xvassold after his death at auction. It brought $20,000, and it would today real ize double that sum. Tho cost of rare coins increases year by year, and the in crease in values during the past five years has been over 5J0U per cent. Coins must not only be rare, but they must be in good condition, and the best are hard to obtain. A perfect coin of some dates are as rare as a Maud S., a peacliblow vase or a Koh lnoor dlauiond. " "What are the leading specialties of the United States collector??" "Three-fourths of the collectors of tins country collect United States and colonial coins, and I iie others collect miscellaneous coins, ancient and modern, foreign and United States. Some collect only certain peries, some only gold coins, some silver and tome only cupper. My specialty Is copper cents, lis coins are the rarest to bo found in perfect condition, nnd the val ues tf copper coins are more certain. It is very hard to find line specimens. The cents and half cents have circulated to ku.r.lj fin extent that they have become worn, disfigured, black a Act smooth, and rare cents in good condition are thus very costly. Washington Cor. New YorU Worid. Choosing a Ptijsiclan. "Doctor," said a prominent scientist to aa equally prominent physician, "when you are sick, who attends you?" "Why do you askr-" replied the doctor. "Oh," was the response, "I want to find out whom the doctors select to at tend them; that man shall be my physi cian." But shun the man who habitually speaks ill of his professional brethren; lu; is not a generous man, probaldy nor a just one. Shun also the man who has a sure cure for every ill, and is always ready to promise that lie 'can help you; who boasts of his wonderful cures, and never owns a failure; who is always talking about his cures, and telling what a heavy business he does. His stock in trade is bluff and brag. And shun the positiva man, who has a ready answer to every question, who can tell exactly what the matter is, how it was caused, and what ths result will be. He knows too much to be honest. Medicine is not a positive science, and where there are so many ele ments of uncertainty, it is not in human nature to know the end from the begin-ning.-r-Demorest's Monthly. The Slav's to?e of Music. The Bohemian Dvorak relates in an au tobiographical sketch that in his country every child must study music. "The law enacting this is old; it was once repealed, but is in force again. Herein I consider lies one great secret of the natural talent for music in my country. Our national tunes and chorals came, as it were,, from the very heart of the people, and beautiful things they were. I intend some day writing an oratorio into which I shall introduce some of these chorals. Tho Slavs all love music. They may work all day in the fields, but they are always sing ing, and the true musical spirit burn bright within them. How they love tho dance, too! On Sunday, when church is over, they begin their music and dancing, and often keep it up without cessation till early in the following morning. Each village has its band of eight or ten musicians." Home Journal. Exercise for Heart nisease, The mistake is frequently made of ad vising subjects of heart disease to keep absolutely quiet. This 13 all wrong. Exercise in moderation is beneficial, and protracts the course of the disease. The muscular substance of the heart, like all other muscles, needs exercise, and must have it, otherwise it cannot keep up its nutrition to the highest point possible. Indeed, Professor Oertel goes so far as to recommend mountain climbing a3 the best form of exercise for these cases. It may be that this id going a little too far, but there can ho no question as to the benefits to bo had froai moderate exercise in this class of cases. Globe-Democrat. Newspaper by rhotosraphy. Books are reproduce.! in this country : directly from photographic plates, and ho C'hcaply as to xell lor one half the price of ivpriuts by the usual type methods tho Eucycloiieditt I'ritannlea, of which seven teen volumes have been issued, lacing the most important work thus far photo graphically reproduced. ly chance it was iiseovered that the gelatine plate, front which the electrotype is made in this pro cess, could be printed from directly, giv ing a larger number of good copied than ; the hardest electrotype. The New York '. Evening I'o. t now nays the most recent development in this direction, and one ' which has scarcely been foreseen untd very recently, is the proposed use of the gelatine proces.-j of printing for newspaper work. A western inventor has been engaged for some time in tin experiment, which aims at nothing less than the entire elim ination of the compositor for book work and even newspaper work. The process is virtually that already followed by tho firms which reproduce En-.di.sh works by photography, but instead of photographing a printed page, it is now projHtsed to photograph from type written pages, nnd reducing the plate nt tho same time to the Fize of ordinary print to place the result ing gelatine plate upon sprinting press and use it instead of the electrotype made from the metal types. The late Col. ltichard Howe, the veteran press inventor, in reviewing the development of the print ing press during his lifetime, said: "I have some idea that the next jump will bo in the direction of photographing the newspaper upon the sheet of paper as it ilies through tho press. I don't know how such a thing can be done, but with the instantaneous process of lightning photographs some genius will use it for the newspapers." He did not live to see any experiment made in the direction of nctural photography of newspapers, but there seems to have been something al most prophetic in his suggestion of pho tography for tho newspaper of the future.
