There is no doubt that a person may ®pparently see objects and hear words Which another person close by canne> see and hear. Such impress‘ons are to be’ referred not to actually existing objects, but to the action of the sub- Ject's mind. Dr. Abereromby tells us of one paticat who could, by directing his attention to an idea, call up te sight the appropriate image or scene, though the thing called up were any 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 representatien 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- rT 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 eto him. © tered that Sir David had told press one eyeball with the fi hen tae impression of any real object wuid be doubled. She tried to apply the test, but the figure walked away and disappeared. The simple scien- tific experiment diverted her atteation from the creation of her mind, and this, no longer being in sole possession, could not maixtain 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 whch had been deseribed to her/hy a wemnon friend. —Westminster Review A Remarkable’ Tork. { the village of Bodra a Turk named Ismall, aged 120 years, is in such good wealth that he frequently walks to , Wartin, six miles distant, to sell eggs, for he is a poultry dealer, bad thrity-four wives, the whom he married recently. is 60 years h's junior, and the mar- riage was celebrsted with emnity, to the s¢ fifes and volleys of village was en fete,.

Among-cther things | he says: “But we all climbed the mighty emerald billow that rose from the rear of the village, some of us re- peatedly, Irom the ship it loeked as smooth as a meadow. but the climber soon found himself kneé-deey in ferns, @rdsses and a score of flowering plants, and now and then pushing througa a patch of alders as high as his head fle could not go far before his hands would be full of flowers, blue predoii- nating. The wild geranium here Is light blue, and it tinged’ the slupes ag daisies and buttercups ‘do at home Near the summit there were patches | of most exquisite forget-me-nots, of a pure, delicate hue with a yellow cen- ter. foot, and a handful ot them looked like something just caught out of the sky above. Here, too, were a small, delicate lady’s-slipper, pale yellow striped’ with maroon, and a pretty dwarf rhodedendfon, its large purple flower sitting upon. the moss and lichen. The climber also waded through patches of !upine, and put his feet among _, bluebells, Jacob’s-fadde iris, saxifraze, cassiopes and many others, The song birds that attracted our notice were the golden-crowned sparrow and the little hermit thrush? The golden ctown had a peculiarly piercing, plaintive song, very simplo, but very appe2ling.. There were only three notes, Mut. they were from out the depths of the bird’s soul.

He neither understood it nor spoke.it. He was, | moreoyer, an educated Spaniard, and was said to be a Catholic priest. This | ‘ man of foreign tongue only had suc- | ceeded Richard H. Weightman, ‘who served during the previous Congress. He held his seat by virtue of the vote of his constituents, the favorable re- port of a committee of Congress upod a contest made against him, and the | approval of thai report by vote of the } House. He was the sole representative | in the House of a portion of the United | | States but‘little less in area than twice | that of New England. He went into | | his seat, as has been said, on a contest | | that ended favorably to him. He went | out of it after an election on a contest that was decided against him. His po- sition in the House, and the manifer* | disadvantage of it to his constituents, led to repeated attempts by his friends to provide him with an interpreter upon the floor of the House, The first effort contemplated that this should he done at public expense. Later it was sought to provide that some one to in- terpret for him might be permitted merely to come within the doors of the legislative chamber. The first effort failed through a decision of the speak- er that the resolutign offered was not & privileged one. The other failed from the lack of a two-thirds vote in favor of suspending the rules to permit the’ introduction of a resolution. I have-given above in a general way the -congre: nal history of Senor Vose Manuel Gallegos, delegate from New Mexico in the Thirty-third Con- gress of the United States, as gathered ‘from the Congressional Globe, the House journal and the House reports ! of committees. | | | | Gitar Cloth of St. Osyth’s a Reminder of ths Times of George II, There is a pretty little village called St. Osyta in Essex, Eng., close to Clac- ton-on*Sea.

Yet for the normal ‘human being with the normal number of digestive ills, uncomfortable, but not serious, the in- ternal bath is very often the short cut to a clear brain and a, comfortable body. Where other troubles complicate one’s physical’ horizon. such miracles are tco much to expect, but cold water judiciously ‘used will almost. always assist in a cure -if it caro: accom- plish it alone.

Among the contents of the shelves there is a |. considerable sprinkling of English books, but to the visitor’s surprise a large portion of these are by a mys- terious, author, “Bart,” of whose name he is probably ignorant. But when he finds that Bart has written “Ivanhoe” and “The Last Days of Pompeii,” the key to the mystery is discovered. The jocal publisher has taken the author’ ‘title of “baronet” for h.s name, and ‘sir Walter Scott and Sir Edward Buy are: credited with one ‘eapolis Journal.
