Owing to the stoppage of the ‘gubglacial drainage, in some way never ascertained, a lake was formed under the Tete Sousse ‘glacier, in, which an’ enormous body of water was pent up ata spot 10,000}feet aboye the sea lev21. Between 1 and 2 o’clock on the aight of July 12, 1892, the ice that had held the lake gave way: ° The water swept'in a torrent of tre-: mendous force over the Desert de Pierre Ronde, gathering up thousands ‘of tons of rock and stones in its course. It passed with a terrific roar under the hamlet-of Bionnassay, Which it did not injure, destroyed half the ‘village of Bionnay on the highroad between Con: tamines, and St. Gervais and, tearing up trees as it,went along, jdined the main river of the Bon-Nant. Following the river bed and destroying on its way the old Pont du Diable, it hurled its seething flood of water, timber, stones.and mud upon: the: solid buildings of the St. Gervais baths and crushed them into fragments. Then, crossing the Chamonix road, it spread itself out in the form of a hideous fan over the valley of the Arve, destroying part of the village of Le Fayet in its way. : Such was the catastrophe of St. Gervais which claimed over 150 victims. Utter ruin was everywhere. The once lovely gardens of the baths were five or six feet: deep,in mud, fine trees had been snapped like reeds and enormous ,. blocks of stone were strewn over the dreary waste.

Henry. George’s First Friena, In the late seventies Henry George,. . the single tax’ reformer, came east from Califoraia. He was desperately poor and had but few acquaintances. Shortly after his arrival he lectured before the ‘Saturday Ethical club of]: ‘New York, where his brilliant oratory and shabby attire made so striking a. st as to excite the sympathy of hose present. After. he left the lub appointed a committee to ‘aid him In getting up a publie lecture. Among others, the committee included Seth Low, who was then’ ‘engaged’ in business, He. was in consultation at the time, and the committee were in a hurry, so ‘he told them to send him’a tot of tickets. ‘They forwarded 20 to him the same day and felt happy at having.secured $20’ for /the ‘lecture fund. The next morning ¢aime a letter of thanks from Mr. Low praising the lecturer's intellectuality and tnclosing a check for $250. 'Theé . : affair’ was a success, -netting about $300, so that President Low may: be said to have been the first man to start. Mr. George on his eastern career. Twenty years later, in 1897, Mr: Low was the citizens’ candidate and Mr. George the labor candidate for mayor “of New York. The latter made a vigorous campaign and in all his speeches advised the citizens, if they could not -vote for him, to vote for his friend Seth Low, and on one occasion he said that if it had not been for the latter he would not be there as a candidate.

In spite of his jolly disposition he is:an’ extremely thin mah, so thin that many a joke is aimed at him.: Here is the latest story they are telling about him; A grocer’s boy entered the doctor's office the other day with a basket of fine fruit which some grateful ‘patient had sent to him. The doctor told the boy to place the basket in a cabinet which stood against the wall. At the same instant he stepped. out of the room, and, going into an adjoining one, manipulated a contrivanee which catsed an articulated skeleton: within the cabinet to waggle, its head and, limbs in an appalling manner just as the messenger boy opened the door. With a yell of terror the boy. fled. When the doctor had enjoyed a hearty laugh, he picked up a fine apple and followed the boy into the street to give it to him. “Come here, my boy!’ he shouted. “Here’s a fine apple for you.” “Not on your life!” replied the affrighted youngster, taking to his heels again, “You can’t fool me with ‘your clothes on.”—New York Tribune. His Great Work. A Chicago man who has written a book was telling about it the other day to a friend who had once done him a service. “By the way,” said the author, “‘l would be delighted to give you a copy of my work, if you care for it.” “] should be more than pleased to have it,” was the reply, “especially if you will write your name in it.” “All right. There {fs a bookstore just. around the corner. If you will accompany me, we will go there and get it. I-don’t bappen to have a copy in ‘ my office just now.” After they had stopped to glance at some of the new things in the bookstore the author hailed a clerk and, pushing his chest out very far, asked for the novel that be had written, “Yes, sir.” the clerk said. ‘We have it around here somewhere, I believe, but you are the first.one who has ever asked for a copy, and it may.take me some time to find it. Wouldn’t something else do just as well?

When the doctor had enjoyed a hearty laugh, he picked up a fine apple and followed the boy into the street to give it to him. “Come here, my boy!’ he shouted. “Here’s a fine apple for you.” “Not on your life!” replied the affrighted youngster, taking to his heels again, “You can’t fool me with ‘your clothes on.”—New York Tribune. His Great Work. A Chicago man who has written a book was telling about it the other day to a friend who had once done him a service. “By the way,” said the author, “‘l would be delighted to give you a copy of my work, if you care for it.” “] should be more than pleased to have it,” was the reply, “especially if you will write your name in it.” “All right. There {fs a bookstore just. around the corner. If you will accompany me, we will go there and get it. I-don’t bappen to have a copy in ‘ my office just now.” After they had stopped to glance at some of the new things in the bookstore the author hailed a clerk and, pushing his chest out very far, asked for the novel that be had written, “Yes, sir.” the clerk said. ‘We have it around here somewhere, I believe, but you are the first.one who has ever asked for a copy, and it may.take me some time to find it. Wouldn’t something else do just as well? We have a great many bettgr books at the same price.”—Chicago Times Herald. . > @ures Bleeplessn: : ency, Mental Depression. m cures : el eecnrees j Clouded M Lt sie auaiee ta Jd, orp BAOON, Ete., . of all organs of th Waterecaaits ee base toe NO .
