Quernes, as these mills are called, are frequently found in the Cyclo pean underground dwellings of Scotland. Their simplest form consists of two thin circular atones, the uTper of which is pierced in the center and revolves on a wooden or metal pin inserted in the low er one. The grinder dropped the grain into the central hole with one hand, while the other caused the upper stone to re volve by means of a i tick inserted in a small hole near the ed;;e. Tho luboriousncss of this operation is well illustrated by a st ry told of Colum ba. He was studying under St. Finnian, and every night on wl.ich it fell to his lot to grind i lie com with the querne be performed i.;s task so quickly that his companion enviously asserted that he had the assistance of an angel in turning the stone.

When we uow speak of a buxom per son, we think of such a one as Mrs. Lu pin in "Martin Chuzzlewit." a plump, middle nge.l. good looking, good na tured, kind, agreeable woman. We do not usually apply the term to a thin woman, or to a young girl, or to an old woman. Assuredly ve. should never think of calling a man or a boy buxom. The word, however, once really meant pliable or flexible, and afterward obedi ent. It is the same as the Anglo-Saxon bocsnm, or the high German lietigsain. from beugen (to bend, which root ap pears in bough and boi (in all its mean ings). In tho Salisbury Manual the woman at tho marriage service promised to be "bonair" and buxon ." which is ex plained in the margin t mean meek and obedient. We are her -by reminded of Milton's line in the most lieautiful of all odes, "So buxom, blithe and debonair." This original meaning of the word ap pears in Chaucer's "Merchant's Tale," "For who can be so bu:;om as a wife':' The word, in its application, was not limited to women. In "The Clerk's Tale" we are told of men, "And they with humble heart full buxomly." In Henry Cochrane's D ctionary (A. D. 1626) buxom is denned as pliant, obedi ent. National Review. The Medical Profession. Every new treatment, every fresh drug, every medicine that is discovered is one-more drop from the great ocean of knowledge segregate d that we may study it for the benefit of mankind.

This is reward enough, and this reward shall surely come to the physician who will work.

A surprising one is the innocent dove, which sometimes hides under her wings food for which she has no need simply to deprive her companions. The sense of property is manifested in the competition for prizes, as in the struggle for the female or for food, rank, territory or nests. The dog distinguishes the property of his master and eveirdiscriminates between objects belonging to different members of the same family. Current Literature. O. A. K.
