In the Biological Section of the British Association at Bsth recently the vexed question of stays and tight lacing was discussed in a separate department. The attendance of the fair sex was especially large. The general expectation which they apparently entertained that the paper would condemn the wearing of stays was, however, agreeably disappointed. Mr. C S. Roy, roiesaor of pathology at Cambridge, and 3. G. Adams, university administrator of pathology, who had announced a joint paper “On the Physiological Bearing of \Vaist- belts and Stays,” blessed instead of banning these articles. The Biggest Passenger Engine Yet. The “ Boston Advertiser ” says :â€"There is a. locomotive now nearly completed by the Hinckloy Locomotive W'orks on Albany street which is intended to far surpass any- thing and everything in the railroad line in the United States, it not in the world. This wonderful engine was designed by G. S, Strong. oi the Strong Locomotive Co., of New York, and is expected to make the lightning speed of eighty miles an hour with ten passenger cars on an ordinary road. It is the largest passenger engine ever built, and will run on the Atchison, Topeka, and Ssnte Fe road, between Chicano and Fort Madison. The first thing that would strike the observer is the singular position of the en incer’s call). It is perched on top oi the boiler about the centre, and is occupied by the engineer alone, as another can is built behind the boiler for the firemen. The engine alone y’ill weigh fifty-five tons, and They have lately been making some pathological experiments, and had found that a good deal of blood stored uselessly in the abdominal veins is, by slight pressure, placed advantageously at the disposal of the muscles, brain and skin. This explains how men, as well as women,|instinctively employ some method of abdominal compression, wearing waistband: or belts, or the more elaborate corsets, at periods of increased activity. No doubt fashion has sometimes led to distortion of the female figure by means of stays, but if not laced too tight the modern corset. by olasping the waist and supporting the bosom and back, constitutes a convenient combination of the different forms of irdle which have been found useful by t e women of all civilized nations from the remotest times. Of course during sleep they are put off, but during hours of exertion, social or otherwise, rea- sonable tight lacing is fitted to increase mental and physical activity. They, how- ever, cautioned young ladies against carry- ing this to an injudicious extreme. wi‘Eh the tender, whié'h in b'unu to ride; liké a pnzwngur coach, wnil Weigh eighty-“V6 ”Mahmud Djvelladellnn Pasha, thp lu'a Minister of l'luanua at.

Ho guy‘- _ho will The citizens of Detroit are complaining of the nuisance of overcrowded street care, from which Toronto has eufiered so long and is still suffering. A correspondent of the Detroit “ J ournal" suggests a resort to a Well-equipped line of Herdlc coaches. One advantage of the coach is that when halted it is driven up to the kerb, and the passenger thus avoids the dirt and dan er of going to or coming from the middle 0 the street. It seems to us that there would be little objec- tion to the street railway system if the City Council could he prevailed upon to enforce a law forbidding overcrowdinu.

Rpieotod by éuuyalia, much to be pitied. eoted by Australia, .L- nuima Status. ans Canudye, he has no encouragemet t to settle in Christian lands. But though Christians will not fraterniza with him on earth they have not lost in- terest in him altogether. We are sending him missionaries to expound to him the principles of the religion we profess, in the hope that we msy meet him on equal terms hereafter. In a few days an addition will be made to our long list of legislative bodies. Ever since in has been under Canadian control the North-\Vest has been ruled in certain minor local matters by a council under the Lieuten- aut‘Governor. At first the council was com- posed of nominated members, all of whom were officials ; then, as population crept in, representatives were admitted, until the council was half nominated and half repre- sentative. At the last session of Parliament the council received its quietus, and a legis- lative assembly with somewhat restricted powers was created in its place. The A3- sembly has been elected, and it is to meet at Regina this week. There has been a good deal of satisfaction expressed over the news transmitted by cable, that No. 1 Manitoba hard wheat is the highest-priced wheat on the British market. A Montreal journal says, however, that “ the people of Manitoba would rather have the standard lowered, as they are not satisfied with the proportion of the whole crop which reaches that standard. They thin: that if the standard was lowered a very much larger quantity of wheat would reach it, and bring a price very little if any loWel‘ than the price paid for the compara- tively small quantity which reaches the present high standard. The Manitobans prefer the material advantage of higher prices to the honour of having their wheat head the market lists. " In 3 recent semen Rev. Dr. Talmage at tributed the suicidal epidemic to two causes, viz., infidelity and insanity. Medical statis- tics prove that insanity and religious mania lead to rnany cases of self destruction, ' n It is very much to be questioned that inn- dcls, at any rate in America and Great Brio tain, are more prone to commit suicide than other classes of the community. The as~ sum ticn has been that agnostioism, by de- rlv ng death of the terrors of the orthodox ereaiter, fosters the suicidal tendency. It has been shown over and ever again that the ratio of suicides in every country is vern- ed by the existing social conditions. t may be expected, for instance that with dear coal and bread this winter the percentage of sui- cides will be increased. Suicide is often resorted to as a refuge from starvation. There is an American Phllistine as well as an English Philietine, and the former is not one whit less offensive than the letter. The American Philistinc abroad is thus hit 03 by Prof. Boyeeen ; “ He brags of hit op- ulence, patronises the efl'ete monerchies ‘ whose manners (which he designates es 3 ‘irills’), customs,and institutions fill him withe grend pstriotic contempt. He dis- courses loudly in the reading rooms of the banks and exchanges on the superiority of the United States and all that appertains to them to Europe and ell that sppertelns to it ; spit: on the floor (as an iilustretion of the national superiority). and mekee him- self generally obnoxious. To Europe he represents America, is the typical American, and cheerfully accepts his representative character.” The American Philietine is I familiar figure in Canada. finch as SUI‘ERFLUOUS HAIR, MOLES em. l’nmnnenlly Ice- nmw‘d. wlllmul pain (II-II Ntl IDISFIGlIluflll-INT.
