HAVE TA¢EN PLACE IN MEDICAL PRACTICE DURING THE 'PAST Firw YEARS. • HAMILTON, Feb.18—A radical change has taken place in the past few years in medi- cal practice. Large nauseous doses are no longer the rule, but where possible ' medi- cines are administered in the conoe.itrated form of tablets and pills which are more easily taken by the patient. This fact, more than anything else, caused the use of the pill form for that sterling remedy, Dodd's Kidney Pills. These pills are sugar coated, easily carried about and easily taken. They require no alcohol topreeerve them as a liquid remedy would, and for this reason are preferable to liquid reme- dies. Another important feature of these pills is that they have never failed to cure any form of kidney disease.

Camille Flammarlon, the French Astron- ' Omer, on Ire Appearance. Some time ago various newspapers of Europe and. America contained the start- ling intelltgsnce that the star which guid- id the wise men would again appear. This star was eennected with that, celebrated one which, 318 years ago, suddenly Slisap- pear*1 from the constellation of Cassio- p:ia, and it was found that this star of 1572 had previously appeared in the years 1264 and 945, and, if counted back, must have appeared in the year of the birth of Christ. If these facts were well establish- ed, we must certainly expect the star to appear again in our days. We should then see a new body in the heavens, entirely unlike any flxed star, to be seen in full daylight,' which would in a short time again disappear. Every astronomer in re- cent times has asked hundreds of questions on this subject. Is it true that the star of Bethlehem will again appear? Is it peri- odical? Is its place in the sky appointed? The next question is, What really happens ed in 1572? It was a few months after St. Bartholo. mew's Night, Tycho Brahe, the great ob- server of those days, tells tis, that: "One evening, as I was watching the heavens in my accustomed manner, I saw, to my great astonishment, in the constellation of Cas- siopeia, a brilliant star of, unusual clear- ness." This was on November 11, 1572. Threedays before the star had been seen by Cornelius Gemma, who spoke of it as "this new Venus." In December of the same year its lustre began to wane; and in Marcia, 1574, it had entirely disappeared, leaving no traee. As to the stars of 045 and 1264', we have no authority ex- cept that of- the Bohemian astrologer, Cyprian Lo'witz. No historian mentions them, and the Chinese chroniclers, who watched all appearances in the sky with great care, do not speak of them. Even granting the a mance of these stars to have been a fa eir resemblance to the star of Bethlehems doubtful. It is true that by counting back we come to the years 680, 815 and 0; but the star should have again appeared some time between 1880 and 1891. t With regard to the Star of Bethlehem there are five assumptions: (1) It had no existence, and the entire statement is a beautiful Oriental fairy tale. (2) The fixed star, seen by the Wise Men, was Venue, at the time of its great splendor. (3) It was a periodical star like that of 1572. (4) The phenomenon was occasioned by -a conjunction of planets, (5) It was a comet. Of these assumptions the most probable is the second. That it was a periodi, ;it star is scarcely likely, for Ptolemy and Mantuan -lin would have •spoken of it. The fourth statement was suggested in 1826 by the German astrono- mer Ideler, and repeated by Encke in 1881. In the year 3 B. C. there were conjunctions of the planets Jupiter, Mars and Saturn on May 29, September 3, and December 5, but on none of these days were the planets nearer together than a degree, so that the Wise Men must have been very near- sighted to take them for one star. The fifth assumption is also not to be con- sidered, for people already know how to distinguish a comet from any other star , and besides, we have no knowledge o a Comet at that time. For all these reaso a we have not the least occasion to expo t the return of the Star of Bethlehem at t e close of, coir century. And even if such \a, iter should appear, it would simply be t' e twenty-si*th such ease observed in b e- terical tithes, and the intere"eti attaejsed. it *mild.

"Possibly," returned the wit, "but your father was evidently of a different mind." That la one type. Here is,another; A man had a portrait taken with his children in a donkey carriage, he standing at the anim- al's head. Showing it to a friend, he asked his opinion of the likeness. "It's the very image of you," was the verdict, "but who is that holding your head?" Here is still another specimen that recalls the "Society Upon the Stainslaw:" Two gentlemen in air auction -room were dis- puting the possession of a picture by a celebrated painter, which faithfully repre- sented an ass. Finally one of them said: 'My dear sir, it is of no use, I shall not give in. The painting once belonged to my grandfather and I intend to have it." "Ohl in that case," replied his rival, suavely, "I will give it up. I think you are fully entitled to it if it is one of your family portraits." Next to this we may place the retort of the Irish girl, who, caught in the act of playing on Sunday morning and being accosted by the parish priest with the greeting, "Good morning, daughter of the evil one," replied promptly, "Good morn- iug, father!"
