POWER OF THE IMAGINATIoN.-Dr. Mobiles, in
lecture at Manchester, England, related a wellau.
thenticated instance of the power of the imagina-

and was present at many engagements during the
early part of the present century In the battle of
Wagram, in 1900, while in the front ranks, and in
the act of reloading his musket he was, as he sup
posed, deprived of both legs by cannon ball. He
felt no pain but this be attributed to the stunning
effect of the shock the brain and nervous system,
and be lay motonless during the entire night among
the wounded and the dead, not daring to move q
muscle lest the loss OF blood should be fatally in.

medical staff, and an examination proved that he
was nninjured The ball had passed under his feet,
and had plowed hole in the earth beneath at least
foot in depth, into which his sudden sinking pro.
dnced the impression that he had been deprived of
both his limbs. The truth of the story is vouched
for by DR.. Mobiles.

more energetic and untiring representative in the
