52 current notes. Ltquors Furnished at Banquets.�Illustrative of the dangers of furnishing alcohol in large amounts to large gatherings, was the Banquet given to the 10th International Medical Congress. The correspondent of the Ph'dadelj>hia Medical and Surgical Reporter says : " I regret to say that the bigger the man the more was he inebriated. Ui)on a professor whose name is a household word all over the medical world, artificial respiration was practiced for almost an hour. Another professor, who has revolutionized one of the most important of medical branches, had a bad cut in his head from a fall. A French physician, renowned for fighting temperance, was too drunk to spell his own name. Two men were seen hugging each other, who are known as irreconcilable antagonists in science, one a leader of German bacteriologists, the other a Paris professor, who does not believe in bacilli." � We take pleasure in calling the attention of our readers to a work of exceptional interest and merit�valuable, not only to every intelligent man and womau, but to every child who is able to read : "Appleton's Cyclopa?dia of American Biography." The eminent Englishman, Dean Stanley, says : " American history from first to last savors of romance, and the biographies of her leading citizens are like the stories of fabled heroes." Nothing in the way of praise can be said of Appleton's American Biography that will reach one hudredth part the merits of the work. It comes in the most beau tiful garb of the printei-s' and engravers' art (over 2,000 portraits and illustrations), handsomely bound and so reasonable in price that no family can afford to be without it. Longfellow has most aptly said : " Lives of ^reat men all remind us We can make our lives sublime, And departing leave behind us Footprints of the sands of time." The work is a comprehensive review of the lives of all those noble men and women whose efforts have wrested this continent from barbarism and of whom every one to be counted intelligent must know something. We cannot all have a volume on every character in history, but in this grand work we can possess the record of the lives of every truly worthy man or woman whose acts have contributed to our advancing civilization. To read the story of great men's lives and to understand the motives of their
