Dying Word« of 8ome of the Worlfi
Famous Man.
Nothnagel, who died alone In hU
room, noted his own symptoms to tha
but hr letter to his assistant Is said
to have ended as follows: "Written
late on the evening of July 6 Just aft
•r experiencing these severe attacks
died of calcification of the arteries."
Traube also made observations on hlm
aelf to the very end. Locock expressed
a wish to be present at the postmor
tem examination on himself, and among
Onvler's last recorded words Is a re
mark, as his fingers twitched Involun
tarily: "Charles Bell Is right: 'Ce sont
les nerfs de la volonte qui sont mala
difs.' " Dyce Davidson, professor at
Aberdeen, died Immediately after say
ing to his class, speaking of the next
meeting, wlblch was never to take
place, "Four o'clock on Monday, gen
tlemen; 4 o'clock."
Several doctors have taken their
leave with a blcs3lng to those around
them. Âstley Cooper's last recorded
words are, "God bless you, and goodby
to you all!" He had previously'said to
his physicians. Bright and Chambers.
"God's will be doue; God bless you
both I" adding, "You must excuse me,
but I shall take no more medicine."
Benjamin Brodle was beard to mutter,
"After all, God Is very good." The
saddest of all recorded lust words are
probably those of Oliver Goldsmith,
who, when asked by his physician If
hla mind was at ease, said, "No, It Is
•notr On the other hand, William
Hooter's mind seems to have been full
of bright thoughts at the moment of
death, for he said, "If I ebuld hold a
pen, what a book I could writer'
Pasteur and Darwin, though not be
longing to the medical profession, are
venerated by it as teachers. Darwin's
last words were, "I am not the least
afraid to die." Pasteur was offered a
cop of milk and, being unable to swal
ivw It, mormored, "I cannot" He
passed away with one hand In his
Gtfa'a, the other grasping a crucifix.
Lastly are mentioned the last words of
Mirabeau, which are said to have been
addressed to a doctor. He wrote on a
■lip of paper, which he gave to his
physician, the philosopher Cabanis, the
single word, "Dormir." Another ac
count, which may be an expanded ver
sion of this, Is that after begging for
an anodyne he said reproachfully to
the doct t : "Were yon a 0t my physi
cian ana my friend? DM yon not
promise to spare me the suffering of
auch a death ? Most I go away carrylnf
with me the regret of having confided
In yon?" This rather a long and
rhetorical speech for a dying man.—

Japanese Naw Yaar Cakaa.
An annual event In Japan Is the
ma kin g of the New Tear's cake, which
every family must have If good lock
la to follow It during the ensuing year.
Thia cake Is made of a peculiar variety
of rice, boiled and pounded in a great
wooden mortar until It Is of the con
sistency of dough. Although the pure
white dough is often colored yellow
or pink, the shape of the cake Is al
ways the same—that of the sacred mir
ror, one of the three sacred symbols of
the Shinto faith. A piece of this cake
la offered to the Shinto deities because
It Is of the shape of the sacred mirror
which wooed the sun goddess to come
out of the cave where she had hidden
herself In wrath and thua saved the
tend from total darkness. Each mem
ber of the family takes a hand In the
Manufacture of the New Year's cake.

MADE IT RIGHT.
^ H Waa Not Easy For the Saleanwn
to Grasp the Boss' Scheme.
In one of the suburbs of London
there Is a wholesale firm the senior
member of which may be known as
Mr. Blank. Tbe Arm has two traveling
salesmen—a single man, receiving 30
shillings per week, and the other a
married man, drawing £2 per week.
A short time ago the single man, be
ing in the shop aod looking over mat
ters, discovered that the married sales
man was receiving 10 shillings per
week more salary than himself, while
be (the single man) was selling more
goods. He called Mr. Blank's ntten
tlon to this and suggested that, as he
was selling more than the other fel
low, be should at leaat receive as much
pej.
The senior partner acknowledged the
apparent inconsistency and assured his
man that ho would look into It and if
the statement were correct he would
make matters right.
Another week rolled by, and when
the single man came to draw his sal
ary from the bookkeeper he was sur
prised to And only 30 shillings passed
out to him the same as before. He de
murred. The bookkeeper insisted he
bad received no Instructions to raise
his pay and referred him to the gov
ernor. Approaching Mr. Blank, he
aald:
"'You remember, sir, I spoke to you
last week about my salary, stating
that while I was selling more goods
than the other traveler, I was receiv
ing less pay, and I thought I should
receive as much as he did. You assur
ed me you would look Into It and make
matters right."
"Yes," said Mr. Blank, "I remember
your mentioning the matter, and 1
made It right, didn't I?"
"Why, no; 1 don't see how yoo have,
aa the bookkeeper has Just paid
tbe same amount as before. I can't
bow that Is making It right, sir."
"Yon don't understand," said the
senior partner. "I have made it right
Yon thought you ought to have aa
much pay as the other man, and I
have made It right by cutting the othn
fellow's pay down."—London Tlt-Blts
THE ENCORE HABIT.
Hew 81m« Raavaa Turned tha Tables
on One of His Admirera.
Slma Reeves, who lq his day waa ac
cepted as the most celebrated tenor on
the concert stage, was bo much of
favorite that whenever he sang he was
usually greeted with a hearty encore,
accompanied with enthusiastic cheers.
Beeves was very good natured about
the matter, but he made it a rule never
to elng more than one selection when
be felt that his voice was not in first
class shape. He happened to notice
that an elderly man, who turned out
to be a dealer In hats along tbe Strand,
London, attended nearly every concert
within convenient distance If Sims
Reevea happened to be on tbe bill and
generally led the encore brigade This
batter was a persistent person and of
ten applauded until he had forced
Reeves to respond to double and triple
encores.
Determined to teach the little hatter
a lesson, one afternoon Just as dark
waa approaching Reeves entered bis
admirer's store and said, "One bat
please," naming the particular shape
which he desired. The little hatter
didn't recognize the great tenor and
banded out one bat
"Good," said Reeves. "How much
Is this hat?"
"Five shillings,'' said tbe store pro
prietor.
"Encore," said Reeves.
A second bat was forthcoming, and
Reeves ultimately obtained three "en
core" hats. When the little hatter de
manded £1 sterling for the purchases
Reeves pretended to be furious.
"Send theae four hata to thia ad
dreaa," ordered the tenor In terribl*
tone, "but I only pay for one bat. Do
you nnderatand? Th* three other hata
are 'encore' hata. If you make me alng
aonga for uothlng you moat aend me
bats for nothing."
Tbe little batter waa apeechleaa.—

HIT HIM IN TWO PLACES.
fhe Way Cicero Treated Hie Devoter
Admirer Petrarch.
In tbe early autumn of 1358 Petrarch
suffered an accident which may be
narrated In bis own words. "You shall
bear," be wrlteB to a friend, "what a
trick Cicero, tbe man whom I have
loved and worshiped from my boyhood,
has Just played me. I possess a huge
volume of his letters, which 1 wrote
out some time ago with my owu band
because there was no original manu
script accessible to the copyists. Ill
health hindered me, but my great love
of Cicero and delight lu the letters and
eagerness to possess them prevailed
against my bodily weakness and the
laboriousness of tbe work. This Is tbe
book which you have seen leaning
against tbe doorpost at the entry to
my library. One day while going Into
the room thinking about something
else, as I often do, I happened Inad
vertently to catch the book In the
fringe of my gown. In Its fall It struck
me lightly on tbe left leg a little above
the heel. 'What! My Cicero,' quoth
I, bantering him, 'pray what are yon
hitting me for?' He said nothing, but
next day as I came again the same
way he hit me again, aud again I
laughed at him and set him up In his
place. Why make a long story? Over
and over again I went on suffering the
same hurt, and, thinking he might be
cross at having to stand on the ground,
I put him up a shelf higher, but not
till after the repeated blows on the
same spot had broken the skin and a
far from despicable sore had resulted.
I despised it though, reckoning the
cause of my accident of much more
weight than the accident Itself. At
last, when the pain was too much not
only for my wit, but for sleep and
rest eo that to neglect the thing any
longer seemed not courage, but mad
ness, I was forced to call In the doc
tors, who have now for some days
been fussing over this really ridicu
lous wound, not without great pain
and some danger to the wounded limb,
as they Insist, though I think you know
Just what reliance I place on their
prognostications either of good or evil.
So this is how my beloved Cicero has
treated me. He long ago struck my
heart, and now he has struck my leg."
—From H. Hollway-Calthorp's "Pe
trarch."
GUIPEPOSTS IN «FRANCE.
A Striking Feature . of tha Reade
Throughout tha Country.
A feature of tbe roads of France la
the ever present guldepost. Theee guide
posts consist of an Iron plaque about
two feet long and a foot high securely
mounted on sturdy poets or fastened
to some substantial wall. They are
painted in white and bine and ahow
without any possibility of mistake not
only the commune or township in
which they stand, but tbe next Impor
tant place In either direction as well aa
the distances between all tbe chief
points upon that route. Thus you will
find If you are traveling on a road
which leads to Paris that the name of
the metropolis will appear on the sign
board, although It may be several hun
dred kilometers distant
In addition to these guldepoets the
Touring Club of France has put on
the chief roads a series of signs and
aymbola to Indicate to motorists and
bicyclists what sort of a road they are
approaching. The algn "ralentir," which
tranalated into good United States
means to "let up," has caused many a
motorist who Is unfamiliar with the
road he Is traveling to slow down and
to find ahortly after the algn had been
paased that It was well that be paid at
tention to It because of a steep grade
or some abrupt turn. There is no ex
cuse, In view of the symbols and algn
boards, for any one motoring in France
to get on the wrong road or to come
unexpectedly Into trouble.—Frank Pres
brey In Outing Magasine.
8hakespeare 'a Last lllneea.
According to a tradition handed
town by Ward, the vicar of 8tratford.
Shakespeare's last Illness was a fever
brought on by a "merry meeting" with
Drayton and Ben Jonson. Another au
thorlty, Halllwell-Phllllps, says that
the great poet died of typhoid, caused
by the filth and bad drainage about
New Place. Like nearly everything
else about Shakespeare, the question
of the character of his last Illness can
be answered only conjecturally.
