PARIS physician, M. Variot, one of the best known doctors in the principal hospital there, bas for some time been studying the project of metalizing dead bodies entire. He has at last cceeded so that a body may be hermetically Inclosed in a gold, silver, nickel, bronze, copper or other metal envelope, according to the taste or means of the mourning relatives. It fe asid that Variot's process is making considerable headway.

This island trading schooner Marshall S., which arrived in Sydney a few weeks since from the Solomon Llands, brought news of another of these horrible massacres that have become so common in the South Sea Islands of late. The victims were five natives who had gone ashore from their ship. On reaching the beach they were attacked by the bush tribe, and killed in the most revolting fashion before a rescue could be effected.

THERE is no period of life more important, from abygienic point of view, thân the age between twelve and twenty-one, for, as Dr. Hector George points out, it is between these | years that the skeleton and brain take their definite form. It is then that an abundance of general exercise will facilitate development; it is during this period that deformities are so easily contracted stooping, for instance, from leaning over work, or writing at a too low desky crooked shoulders or hips from carrying weights always on one side, or from allowing pupils to alt crookedly at their work. But now, happily there is open to everybody that splendid antidote to deformity—gymnastics. It is the same thing with the brain; everything in a man's life depends on the impressions he receives in his youth; his surroundings must be refined and clever if it is wished that his mind may also become so. In the words of Dr. George, what is wanted is "An upright mind in an upright body."

and I can both read and writs. I borrowed the first money on May 16th and the whole of the money, about $7,000, was gone by the 5th June. I was induced to borrow this money because, being a minor, I half believed that I should not have to repay it. I won't say that I should not have borrowed it, if I had thought I should have to repay it. When all the money was gone my mother got hold of me. That was about the 21st Jane. The notice had appeared in the newspapers before she found me. It was before I got the letter of the 23rd June from Mr. Rodyk that my mother found me. When my mother found me she scolded me. She found me in the Pan An Kul Club. I did not show her the letter I had received from Mr. Rodyk. She told me to go to Mr. Dennys, He examined me as to what I had done with the money. I went to Mr. Dennys's office two or three times. Mr. Dennys took down my statement.

Mr. Francis said it might save time if he stated that the affidavit filed was drawn up by him personally and read over to the witness in his chambers, No one in Mr. Dennya's office saw it.

Cross-examination continued-I obtained a loan of $200 from my nephew Atack the year before last. I wanted this money to pay for things I had brought from Canton. My mother knew of this. I repaid Atack in full. Just before borrowing the money in May last I went with Chan Hang Fo and Ho Ching Shan to the Chol Fung brothel. I went with them several times. I know the Tak Yung.
