T WORK JUST AFTER EATING. i iy 8 - . Mental Effort Following Meal i "Semetimes Disastrous. Jourhal 'of the American Medical Associ atiof. * It has lone been known that a man is not at his best for hard niental work directly after a hearty meal, but the real dangers of work under such conditions are perhaps hardly appreciated. The tension is increased not only in the arteries of the body, but also, in all probability, in those of the brain, and this makes it easy for a weakened point to give away. We: recently have had a striking in- stante of death from apoplexy occur- ring in a proniinent physician while i an after-dinner speech, and the notable death of William Windom, a few years amo, under similar cir- cumstances, will be remembered; and still other cases might be mentioned. The dangers from this cause have not been recognized, but when we remem- ber that these public banquets in- volve a pretty hard digestion of food and 'a consequent rise of blood pres- sure, it need not be wonder at that sudden deaths from 'apoplexy' dur- ing after-dinner speeches are often re- corded. . Apoplexy is a well known possibility of mental strain: the weak point may be unknown to the subject himself and not @vealed bv any objective symp- toms. The individual may have passed a life insurance examination suecess- fully only a short time before, as is reported to have been the case with the physician referred to, but the spe- cial stress becomes too strong, for some point of weakness, and the re- sult is fatal. Tt is not work. whether mental or physical that kills. Intel- lectual workers. as a rule. are among the longer lived. but special stress, under certain circumstances, such as post-convitial occasions, when the normal tendency to rise of blood pres sure in the peripheral circulation is most marked, may be disastrous. Laid At Rest. Bedford, Feb. 1.-- Death is sad, even when, in the usual course of na ture, it is to be expected, but when it comes in carly life it leaves a sting. Mrs. Thomas Mulville, eldest daughter of P. McUdn, of Bedford, after a short illness, died at the home of hey parents on Monday. Her death will be learned with regret by all who knew her, for in her large circle of acquain- tances, she enjoyed an enviable popu- larity. It was not in se »s render- ed publicly that the secret of her po- pularity rested, but in the quiet hos- pitality of her home. There was noth- ing of ostentation in her work. She was ever ready to help the church in its various social undertakings, but her greatest usefulness lay in the plain path of duty. Her sympathy found the sick, her charity the unfortunate, and her pity the distressed. Tn a wo- man of such propensities it is diffi- cult to estimate the amount of good she did, and, equally so the depth and extent. of the gratitude that is her dune. Whilst by her untimely demise the community has suffered a distinct loss, the realization of this bereave- ment falls with a special weight, on the sorrowing relatives, who, know: | ing her worth, can alone know her real loss. The sympathy of all goes out to the hereaved husband, the mo- therless child and the sorrowing par ents. Two sisters and two brothers still survive her. With every evidence of the respect in which she was held the funeral took place on Wednesday ing, the cortege heing one of the Bedford for a long largest seen in | Catarrh, Pneumonia, Consumption | Death's fateful trinity they are often | called, Catarrh is the first stage, | pneumonia often follows, and consump: tion finally exacts the full penalty.

WINNIPEG, Man. the extension of railways by this com: TO BE A VERY FINE RESORT FOR TOURISTS. Victoria Falls Most Wonderful Sight' In The World--Greater Than Niagara--Discovered By | Livingston In 1855. | The last year in South Africa has seen more real development along the line than any other in its history. British South Africa Co. has spent millions of dollars in this work, and the Boers sce that the loss of inde- pendence has been their gain in the progress of improvements. A good deal might be written on what has been doing in a twelve month. : One thing of interest to the world iz pany, whigh is simply. carrying out the plane of its chief thinker in tines past, when Cecil Rhodes was alive. Its railway from Bulawayo has been pushed so rapidly that the roar of the Victoria Falls can almost be heard by the workmen. It is estimated that ths road will reach there before the end of the year. "The scenery throfigh which the road in the wilds of Africa is to pass is marvelous almost Beyond description. It will have to be seen to be appreci ated. It is thought that there will be thousands 'of visitors yearly over these rails, who will make Victoria Falls a popular tourist resort. Victoria Falls are the greatest in the world and the wild and impres- sive scenery in which they are located is perhaps the most wonderful in all the globe. Taking a lesson from tho enterprising, Americans the English- mon will harness these falls to get power for factories and for the rail- | way. Theré is unlimited horse power, { too great for somputation, in the | wild, tumultuous drop of the waters of the Zambesi. The British South Africa company intends to make this resort attractive for visitors and will not disturb' the wild scenery in which they are. There will be a cleaning up of the debris of and the erection of hotels for the ag accommodation of visitors, so that the resort may he visited with com- fort, but the natural beauty of the place will remain like it has since the world beran. The railway itself will be hidden from the falls, and the bridge span: ning the Zambesi gorge will be some distance from the cataract, and out of sight of it. In fact, the railway and bridge will he less in evidence than is the suspension foot bridge at Niagara In its conce n to the company formed for utilizing the power gener: ated by the Victoria Falls, the Chart | ered company, following the example ! of the American and Canadian gov- | ernments in respect to Niagrara, has | been careful to insert a provision to ! the effect that "the installation shall | in no way interfere with the su-, ! preme beauty of these stupendou falls, the like of which is not to be seen lon the earth's surface," and the power plant is to be installed in the second zig-zag below the cascade. Even the hotel, five storeys high, and containing 100 bedrooms, which will be opened in time to actommo- date the members of the Britigh As. sociation, on their visit to the falls in 1005, is to be erected at a dis tacce o' two or threa miles from ih: rails and with the-idea of further pre. serving the beauty of the place the Chartered company has set aside 000 acres of land on both banks the river to be made into 'parks. The park. on the south side is to contain no buildings except the hotel, while the other will be a people's park, with a zoological and other gardens. When the railway from Bulawayo reaches the falls it will be possible to do the return trip from Cape Colony in fourteen days; allowing the tourist four days to spend gt the falls. At present 'the journey between Bulawa vo and the Vietoria Falls is divided into two stages : Bulawayo to M'ban- ji 166 miles by rail, round trip fare first-class $31.50; time occupi 12 hours. M-banji to the<falls, 120 miles by road. Post eart fare, $145 each dav: time occupied, four days and nights. Once accessible by railway, no doubt a constant stream of tourists | will make the journey to visit the | greatest waterfall in the world, for being twice thn such, indeed it is, width and two and a half times. the height of the Niagara Falls. The flow of water in the Zambesi is not as constant as that of the St. Law rence, but when the river is in flood it is estimated that the volume i double that of Niagara, with the re sult that about 35,000,000 horse pow er may be seen running to waste. Dur ing the dry season this is much re duced, but even in the driest years the volume passing over the lip is very large. he first white man to visit the falls was David Livingstone, in 1855. The natives paddled him in a canoe down to the island--now called Livingstone island--situated in the middle of the river on the edge of the lip over which the water rolls. He thus describes what he saw. "I believe that no one could per ceive where the vast body of water went: it scemed to, lose itself in the earth, the opposite lip of the fissure into which it disappeared being only eighty fect distant. At least 1 did not comprehend it until, creeping with awe to the verge, I peered down into a large: rent which had heen made from bank to bank of the broad Zam- besi and saw that a stream of a thousand yards broad leaped down over a hundred fect, and then be came suddenly compressed into a space of between fifteen or twenty yards, The entire falls are simply a crack made in a hard basaltic rock from the rizht to the leit bank of ths Zambesi, and then prolonged from the Joft bank awav through thirty or fore tv miles of hills. "Tn looking down into the fissure on the richt of the island one sees noth- Ling but a dense while cloud, which, at | the time we visited the spot. had two bricht rainbows on it. From this ! cloud. rushed up a great jet of vapor ! exactly like steam, and it mounted two or three hundred foet high : then condensing it. changed its hue to that of a dark emoke, and came back inn us to the skin. This shower falls SOUTH | r CA there stands a straight 2 of sure, and a few yards back from the , Whose leaves are al ways wot, From their roots a number of little rills run back into the gulf, but as thoy flow down the steep wall there, the column of vapor in its as- cent licks them clean off the rock, and away they mount again. They are constantly ruining down, reach the bottom." On the left of the island on which he stood, Livingstone describes the mass of water leaping down into the abyss: "The walls of this gigantic crack are perpendicular, and compos- ed of one homogeneous mass of rock. The edge of that side over which the water falls, i§ worn off twg or three feet and pieces have fallen away, so as to give it somewhat of a serrated appearance.' That over which the wat- or does not fall is quite straight, ex- cept at the left corner, where a rent appears, and a pies seenis inclined to. tall off. -Upop whole, it is nearly in the state in which it was left: at the period of its formation. The rock is dark brown im color, except about ten feet from the bottom, which is discolored by the annual rise of the water to that or a great height. "On the left side of the island there is a_good view of the mass of water which causes one of the columns of vapor to ascend, as it leaps clear of the rock, and forms a thick unbroken fleece all the way to the bott Is whiteness gave the idea of snow--a sight I had not seen for many a dav. As it broke into {if 1 may use the term) pieces of water, all rushing on in the same direction, cach gave off off several rays of foam, exactly as bits of stee), when burst in oxygen gos, give off the rays of sparks. The snow white sheet seemed like myriads of small comets rushing on in one di- rection, each of which left behind its nucletis rays of foam. I never saw the appearance referred to noticed else where. It seems to be the effect of the mass of water leaping at once clear of the rock, and but slowly breaking up into spray." In his account Livingston rather un derestimates the dimensions of the falls, the actual height bring 420 feet and the width 1,936 vards, while the height to which the spray rises from the bottom of the chasm has been calculated at 1,200 fect. F. C. Selous, who wrote of the falls as "the most transcendently beautiful natural phenomenon on this side of Para dise,"" says that the spray clous can be sometimes seen fifty miles away. Lhe native name for the falls is Mosi- oatiinya. meaning "the smoke that sounds."' in reference to the vapor and the noise. One of the most re markable features of the place is the gorge. which is. entirely cut out of basalt and runs in a scries of sharp zig-zags for miles. The mighty river the gorse through a precipi: enters ! tous cleft only 100 yards in width, at a point called the "Boiline Pot." and runs swiftly round the sharp bends, turnubr round om its wav continually and flowing in contrary directions. -------------------- You Take No Chances.
