Every

Every pain in the breast, dif

that your heart is straining it
self in its effort to keep in
motion. This is dangerous.
Some sudden strain from over
exertion or excitement will
completely exhaust tne nerves,
or rupture the walls or arteries
of the heart, and it will stop.
Relieve this ternblo strain at

War medals, mostly won at. the xist>

possessors and never redeemed, or are |
tent to 'he hammer by needy relatives
in the decease of the veterans. It may
ne here noted that no man on 'he army
u'tiv<> strength is allowed to pledge his
nedals. As is well known, war decora
tions that pass by the means stated,
and otherwise, into commerce, ar*>
eagerly purchased by dealers, who dis- i
! pose of them to museums; also to prl
! vate collectors of every grade, froui
Vmeriean millionaires to British pub
licans.
These disks of silver especially those j
awarded for modern campaigns, from

are obtained from dealers. Mendicants
get hold of the medals in order to ex
hibit them to credulous and benevo
lent folks, and thus extract more lib
eral alms. War decorations are also oc
casionally sporteil by one-armed or sin
gle-legged organ grinders. Such gentry
warrant themselves to lie British, and |
plead for patronage as a matter of na- j
tional sentiment and as opposed to the
claims of the Saffron hHl musical con- j
flngent of invaders. These medal-dis- !
playing humbugs are seldom ex-sol- j
jiers, far less have they been disabled
in active service. They are at times
considerably "out" in respect of a bit
of medal ribbon shown. For instance, 1
an organ grinder of about 2." years of
age was observed in Holborn the other
day sporting the Crimean and Mutiny
ribbons!
Sometimes an actor possessed of a
passion for realism, who may have to
impersonate on the stage the hero of
100 tights, invests in real medals with
which to cover the breast of his tunic. |
Also genuine war decorations adorn
the uniformed presentments of eminent
warriors in tlie best-class wax exhibi
tions throughout the country. A year
or two ago a paragraph went the rounds
of the papers to the effect that a king
of a tribe on the west coast of .\Huca I
had a mania for collecting British war !
medals, and that, a city firm had a
standing order to supply his sable maj
esty. The king owned a major gen
eral’s tunie on which were sewn—both
back and front, and from collar to tails
— medals and clasps from those of the
peninsula and Waterloo downward.
This garment the monarch proudly
sported on extra special stnte occasions.

LESSONS FROM THE FROG.
Swimmers Con Get Valuable Point

Methods.
“Those who want to become expert
swimmers will do well to go to the
nearest brook or swamp and study the
manner and method of the frog,” re
marked a teacher of swimming in one
of the natatoriums in the city. "The
most expert swimmers in the world
are tyros compared with the laziest
bullfrogs. The difficulty with all
swimmers Is that they spoil the effect
of the stroke by the recovery. When

he is in the position of a man sitting
on his haunches. Then he suddenly
gives a mighty spring in the water,
kicking his legs out, not behind him,
but almost directly sidewise. After
the kick his legs are slowly drawn to
gether by his motion through the wa
ter until they hang out behind him in
a perfectly rigid form. JO very toe of j
his web feet is held out as straight as
an arrow and then nothing retards his
motion through the water. He will lie
in this position until every bit of the
momentum is lost- that is, until he has
gone as far as the force of his kick will ,
send him through the water. Then
again he slowly and carefully draws
his legs in and repeats the perform
* ance. You will notice that in drawing
the legs up to his body for a second
kick the frog recedes a little. This
is owing to tlie action of the upper log
on tlie water, and it corresponds ex
actly with the similar movement on
the part of a man. The first thing a
frog does is to give his body a good
start through the water, ami lie holds
himself in such a way that lie gets tiie

starts out with just such a kick, but
after be has gone two or three feet he
will begin to swing his hands forward

work. He stops his own body half

COUNTERFEITING SEAWATER
Imitation Successfully Produced for
Inland Exhibition of
Fishes.
Much difficulty has been found hith
erto in keeping marine animals of the
more delicate species alive in artificial
sea water, such as is often substituted
for the real article where aquaria
have to he maintained for months to
gether far from the ocean for exam
ple, at a great exposition in an inland
city such as Chicago or St. Louis. It
is not convenient, says the New York
Herald, to transport the necessary sea
water in tanks for 800 miles or more,
and so sea salt has been commonly
employed, dissolved in fresh water ac
cording to prescription.
Experiments have been conducted
recently at Wood’s Holl, Mass., with a
view to counterfeiting sea water with
such exactness as to make it practi
cally indistinguishable from the real
stuff. This, indeed, has been accom
plished so successfully that the most
delicate animals, such as sea ane
mones have been kept alive in the
artificial fluid for months together
Apparently there is no material dif
ference between the imitation and the
article provided by old Nepiune.
To accomplish this result it was
necessary to make quits an e'aborate
chemical compound, inasmuch as sea
water is a complicated m xture of a
great variety of substances Roughly
speaking, it consists of 9614 per cent,
of fresh water plus three and one-half
per cent, of mineral salts. Three
fourths of these salts are chloride of
sodium, or common table salt., and the
next largest constituent is chloride of
magnesium. After these come sul
phate of magnesium, sulphate of lime,
sulphate of potash, bromide of mag
nesium and carbonate of lime
In addition to these substances sea
water contains minute quantities of
quite a variety of elements, including
iodine, phosphorous and arsenic It
also contains some silver, copper, zinc,
nickel, cobalt, iron and gold. There is
said to be two cents' worth of gold in
every pailful of sea water, but as yet
nobody h is found a way to extract it
Copper auu zinc are found in some
seaweeds, and certain species of coral
is three-millionths silver
