BlrsDfs Antlpnthr to rUicatsff Volta from tha WsUts A strange antlpsthy once prevailed to rescuing a drowning man, the Idea being that the person saved would, sooner or later, do some sotl of Injury to tho roan who preserred his life. Sir Walter Scott. In the "Pirate," tells how Rryce, the peddler, refused to help Mordaunt to save tho ship wrecked sailor from drowning, nnd oven remonstrated with him on tho rashness of audi a deed. "Are you mad?" said tho peddler, "you that hara tired sas Inng In Zetland, to risk tho saving ot a drowning man? Wot ye not if yo bring htm to Itfo again. ho will be sure to do you somo in Jury?" This prejudice, which was deeply rooted among our sea-going .community In many parts ot the country, existed not rery long ago In Cornwall. It U found, too, among French sailors and the boatmen ot the Danube, and Is rery widely credited In Russia. Mr. Harry, in his "Iran nl Home," gives n striking Instance ot Jthe Russian repugnance to earing l!t from drowning. One day a drunken man walked Into the water and dis appeared. A number ot specUtom stodd by and gazed on the scene with the utmost Indifference, but no ono trlod to rescuo him. A court of In quiry was held, but as on examination no cross was found on his neck, a ver dict was qulokly agreed upon by the villagers, who declared that the man was "drowned because he had no cross upon his neck." The Rohemlan fisher man shrinks from snatching a drown ing man from tha waters, fearing that tho water demon would t'Ua away bis luck In fishing, and drown him at tho first opportunity. This is a lingering survival ot tho ancient significance or this superstition, the explanation be ing that tho water spirit Is naturally angry at facing despoiled ot Its victim, and henceforth bears n special grudge against tho unluohy person .,. .. dared to frustrate him. Thus, whoit some ono Is drowned in Germany, th remark Is made: "Tho river uplrll claims his yearly sacrifice," or "Tho nix has taken him." Out of Kuropo, also, tho accidental drowning of a per son is attributed to a similar seizure, and tho Blamcso dreads tho Pnuk, or water spirit, that selzca bathers and drags them tinder to his dwelling. The Sioux Indians have n similar fancy, and tell how men havo boon drowned by Unk-Tahe, tho water monster. For tho intno reason. It appears, tho Kamtclmduls, far from helping, a man out of tho water, would drown him by Xorec. It rcocued by any ohanco no ono would recolvo him Into his house or glvo him rood. Tho Chinese reluo tnnce to save a man rrom drowning arise? rrom quite a different belief -It being supposed that tho spirit of a person who has met his doath in this way continues to flit along tho nttrfaoo of tho water until It hns caused by drowning tho death of n fellow-oreut-tiro. A chinaman, therefore, who at tempts to rescue another from drown ing Is considered to Incur the hatred of tho uneasy spirit, which Is desirous, oven at tho oxpense of a man's Itfo, to rncnpe from Its wanderings. Rotton Qlobc. forclkn lloilUi la tli Hir, Dr. Durnett, In an article In thn Philadelphia "Polyclinic," laya dowu the following rules concerning the re moval ot foreign bodies from the ears ot children: (1) Always examine an car said to contain a foreign body, and find out whether such is tho case before endeavoring to remove tho foreign sub stance (2) WhaUoovor a ohlld puts into ita ear, or allows to be placed there, Is placed there easily and pain lessly and can bo easily and pain lessly removed by any physlolan who can properly syringe the ear.
