THE use of cocoaine has become very
general for the purpose of producing lo
cal anaesthesia , as it has been heretofore
supposed that the effects did not extend
beyond the part treated. Such being
the case , difficult operations could be
performed upon the eye and other or
gans which are especially sensitive ,
without the use of chloroform , which is
very dangerous and always produces
death in persons who are afflicted with
any kind of heart trouble. The discovery
of the uses torhich cocoaine could be
put was a great relief to surgeons on
this account. Now , however , comes the
news that cocoaine is not so harmless as
supposed , but a heavy dose of it may
produce paralysis of the heart and re
sult in death. The application of the
drug causes a deadening of the nerves
in the part treated , and a very slight in
crease in the amount will have a tenden
cy to produce death. Experiments have
shown that its action is very prompt
and uniform upon the heart. In large
doses iteffects the action of the vessels
of the heart.
WHEN a Texan makes up his mind to
marry he is terribly iu earnest. A young
Texan , of a poetic temperament , applied
to an advertising agency for a wife.
Some scamp put up a job on him by
writing him in the name of a girl in
Erie , Penna. He responded to the let
ter with an impassioned epistle to the
girl. She was soon to be married to a
clergyman and threw the letter con
temptuously into the waste basket. Her
younger sister fished it out and imme
diately wrote , signing her sister's name ,
accepting his offer and telling him to
come on. The Texan invested in a
boiled shirt and store clothes and came
for his bride. The young lady was in
dignant and shut the door on him. Then
he went to a drug store , purchased a
package of arsenic and swallowed it on
the lady's doorstep. She sent for a
plumber and had him pumped out. Then
lie went home , a wiser but a madder
man. Younger sisters do not want to
fool with a Texas man. Journal.
A YOUNG woman has started a paper
down in Texas , and in her first number
says she aims to reach aloft to the skies
and pull down the stars to lighten the
path of poor , plodding humanity , and
laving strung out a column of that sort
of thing , asks for advice as to how she
can best make her paper a success. It
is with unwonted delight that we tender
the dear young creature a sure cure for
what's the matter with her , as well as
an unfailing recipe for making her pa
per prosperous and popular. All she
need do is to marry some talented and
ndustrious young printer , turn the of-
ice over to him and herself go to keep-
ng the most pleasant little home in
Texas. Topics.

THE Galveston Daily News says that
during the last six months ninety and
nine gentlemen have , by order of Judge
rjynch , unwillingly adorned various
amp-posts and tree limbs. This large
mmber of what it is pleased to call
"departed citizens" were guilty of mur
der or horse stealing , or incendiarism.
A LADY who had boasted highly at a
linner party of her little darling , ad
dressed him thus : "Charley , my dear ,
von't you have some beans ? " "No , "
was the ill-mahnered reply of the petu-
aiit cherub. ( 'No ! " exclaimed the as-
onished mother , "no what ? " "No
eans. " Observer.
THE Christian at Work : Little foxes
poil the vines in jumping for the little
grapes. It is little wounds that wran-
cle , and little people that purposely in-
lict them. The blow of a giant fells
ut causes no pain. Nevertheless it is
better to be stung by a wasp than hit by
Achilles' club.
THE steady progress of the cholera in
Spain goes on and the new cases and
deaths increase daily. One thousand six
hundred and twenty-nine new cases and
672 deaths was the terrible record for ]
