Some People So Constituted That They See Snpernatural Beings. There is no doubt that a person may apparently see objects and hear words which another person close by cannot see and hear. Such impressions are to be referred not to actually existing objects, but to the action of the sub- ject’s mind. Dr. Abercromby tells us of one patient who could, by directing his attention to an idca, call up to sight the appropriate image or scene, though the thing called up were an object he had never seen but had mere- ly imagined. When meeting a friend in the street he could not be sure whether the appearance was his friend or a spectral illusion till he had tried to touch it and had heard the voice. Goethe saw an exact counterpart of himself advancing toward him, an ex- perience related by Wilkie Collins. Sir Walter Scott relates that soon after the death of Lord Byron he read an account of the deceased poet. On step- ping into the hall immediately after he saw right before him, in a stand- ing posture, the exact representation of his departed friend, whose recollec- tion had been so strongly brought to his imagination. After stopping a mo- ment to note the extraordinary resem- blance he advanced toward it and the figure gradually disappeared, Some of the cases narrated by Sir David Brew- ster are particularly instructive. The subject was a lady (Mrs. A.) and her hallucinations were carefully studied by her husband and Sir David. On one occasion she saw her husband, as she thought, who had gone out half an hour before, standing within two feet of her in the drawing-room. She was astonished to receive no response when she spoke to him. She remem- bered that Sir David had told her to press one eyeball with the finger when the impression of any real object would be doubled. She tried to apply the test, but the figure walked away and disappeared. The simple scien- tific experiment diverted her attention from the creation of her mind, and this, no longer being in sole possession, could not maintain itself and was dis- solved, Another hallucination took the form of her dead sister-in-law. The figure appeared in a dress which Mrs. A. had never seen, but which had been described to her by a common friend.—Westminster Review. A SPECTER HAND. Ramblings of Ghosts Near an English Palace. The ghosts which are said to fre- quent the precincts of Hampton Court palace are more or less known by rep- utation, but their ramblings have been promiscuous and uncertain. Great in- terest in their movements has, how- ever, been newly aroused by the strange experience undergone by an artist who, during the past few weeks has been visiting certain rooms of the palace for the purpose of sketching the old Flemish tapestry on the walls. While engaged in the guard watching chamber in broad daylight this gentle- man, Mr. Haynes of Surbiton, posi- tively asserts that a specter hand, white and delicate and richly jeweled, has persistently intruded between him and the tapestry. At first he imagined the disturbing element must be one of the many hands so beauti- fully inscribed on the tapestry, but the limb, he says, moved slowly from one stage to another; and pointed downward. Mr. Hayes was much agi- tated, and told several friends of this curious visitation. They, not unnat- urally, perhaps, advised him to dis- miss the subject from his mind and re- turn to the chamber and his work. But the hand re-appeared before his start- led eyes; and on the last appearance of the phantom the artist made a hur- ried sketch of the outstretched hand, the rough outline of which depicts a brilliant marquise ring on the fore- finger. The effect of these continued visits of the supernatural on Mr. Hayes is very visible; he is unnerved, and he has suspended his sketching. These are the plain facts, but there is, it would seem, a weird and historic connection between this hand and the hand of the queen Catherine Howard, one of ‘the wives of King Henry VIII.— Golden Penny. The Five-Clawed Dragon. In China the five-clawed dragon is the emblem of royalty. Usually it is pictured as arising from the sea and clutching at the’ sun, thus expressing the idea of universal dominion. The Emperor’s person is called the ara- gon’s body, his throne the dragon’s throne. To see the Emperor, a privi- lege allowed to but few, is to see the dragon’s face. The Emperor’s crest is a dragon; a dragon appears on the Chinese flag. The dragon is called “Lung” in China, and’ symbolizes all that is imposing and powerful. The mass of the people believe in the dra- gon as an actual existence, and waste much time and money in attempting to propitiate the monster. The dragon has been described by Chinese writers as a most fearsome looking monster, and they give it all sorts of extraordi- | nary attributes. King’s Flattery of Queen. The King of Sweden has a high opinion of Queen Victoria, as the fol- lowing extracts which the Gem of London has secured from his note book will show: “No wonder that the people of Great Britain love and deeply respect their Queen! As the King of Sweden, I am a happy and honored man; but so highly and loy- ingly do I respect the sovereign of England that I could come down from my position of King, and serve happily, without any feeling of re- gret, the Queen of England as a Brit- ish subject.” A Chance for a Hustler.

The officials consider that it is as necassary to have chaplains at fires as it fs to have them arcompany troops to the firing line in time of battle. Loss of life at fires is aometimes very heavy, as was recently shown here. There should always be sume one present to administer spiritual consolation, Fire Commissioner Scanne!l has appointed two chaplains for the department. They will hold the rau of chief of batallion, and will perform the same duties as chaplains in the army, In all cases, ac- companying their battalions into ac- tion. The only distinction between ar- my chaplains and fire chaplains is that the latter will receive no compensatiog for their services - New York Corres pondence Pittsburg Dispatch. The Irl R. Hicks 1901 Almanac, Whatever may be said of the scientific causes upon which the Rev. Ir} R. Hicks bases his yearly fore- casts of storm and weather, it is a re- markable fact that specific warnings of every great storm, fiood, cold wave and drouth, have been plainly printed in his now famous Almanac for many years. The latest startling proof of this fact was the destruction of Gal- veston, Texas, on the very day named by Prof. Hicks in his 1900 Almanac, as one of disaster by storm along the gulf coasts. The 1901 Almanac, by far the tinest, most complete and beautiful yet published, is now ready. This remarkable book of near two hundred pages, splendidly illustrated with charts and half-toned engrav- ings, goes as a premium to every sub- scriber who pays one dollar a year for Prof. Hicks’ journal, Word and Works. The Almanac alone is sent prepaid for only 25c. Order from Word and works Publising Company, 2201 Loeust Street, St. Louis, Mo. Sctentists Are Happy. Jean Baptiste Andre Dumas, the eminent French physiologist ang chemist, the hundredth anniversary of whose birth occurred on July 14, thus stated the problem of happiness in ar oration delivered before an assemblage. of French naturalists at Clermont, in 1876: “If I seek in my memory after the picture of true happiness, I find ir not in the potentate who exercises 4 great power over others, nor in the man of wealth, who controls all tha luxuries and pleasures money can buy. but in the man of science, who de- votes his life to discovering the secrets of nature, and finding out new truths,” “T hobbled into Mr. Blackmon’s drug store one evening,” says Wesley Nelson, of Hamilton, Ga., ‘‘and he asked me to try Chamberlain’s Pain Baim for rheumatism with which I had suffered fora long time. I told him I had no faith in any medicine as they all failed. He said: ‘Well, if Chamberlain’s Pain Balm. dees not help you, you need not pay for it,’ I took a bottle of it home and used it according to directions and in one week I was cured, and have not since been troubled with rheumatism.” Sold by the Itasca Mercantile Co. Died for Her Pupples. A large barn in the rear of Miss Mary Wicken’s dwelling at 817 East Washington street, was discovered in a mass of flames, says the Indianapolis News, and when the department ar- rived the structure was in ruins. A water spaniel dog which was in the yard at the time of the fire ran fran- tically about and finally into the burn- ing barn after several pups. She made a gallant effort to rescue the puppies, but was suffocated before she could drive them out. Danger of Coids and La Grippe. The greatest danger from colds and lagrippe is their resulting in pneu monia. If reasonable care is used however, and Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy taken, all danger will be avoided. Among the tens of thou- sands who have used this remedy for these diseases we have yet to learn of a.single case having resulted in pueu- monia, which shows conclusively that it is a certain preventive of that dan- gerous malady. It will cure a cold or attack of la grippe in less time than any other treatment. It ‘is pleasant and safe to take. For sale by the Itasca Mercantile Co, Legal Notéces.

The claim of other cough medicines to be as good as Chamberlain’s are effectually set at rest in the follow- ing testimonial of Mr. C. D. Glass, an employe of Bartlett & Dennis Co., of Gardiner, Maine. Hesays: “I had kept adding to a cold and cough in the winter of 1897, trying eyery cough medicine I heard of without perma- nent help, until one day I was in the drug store of Mr. Houlehan and head- vised me to try Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy and offered to pay back my money if I was not cured. My lungs and bronchial tubes were very sore at this time, but I was completely cur- ed by this remedy and have since al- ways turned to it when I got a cold, and soon find relief. I also recom- mend it to my friends and am glad to say it is the best of all cough medi- cines.” For sale by the Itasca Mer- cantile Co. A. B.
