Curious Case:

Curious Casss
John holland lost his eye-sight, few
days ago, under somewhat peculiar cir
cumstances. He had felt nothing pecu-
liar about his eyes on retiring for the
night but on the next morning he found
that one of his eyes had actually col
lapsed, and protruded from the socket,
30 that he could not close his eyelids.-
Two or three days afterward SINH
lar occurrence happened TO his remain
ing eye, and he Mas tlias made perfectly
blind: He was drayman, and the
physiciaas state that the loss of his eye
sight was caused by over exertion and
straining of the nervous system.-&.

To Sleep Well.

To Sleep Well.
We find the following in one of our
exchanges. We don't know, whether
it is humbug or philosophy. It can
do no harm to shift your bed and try it.
The earth is magnet, with magnetic
currents constantly playing around it
The human body is placed in certain re-
lations to the earth these currents har-
monize-when in any other position
they conhct. When one position is to
be maintained for some time, a position
should be chosen in which the magnetic
currents Of the earth and body will not
conflict. This position, as indicated by
theory and known by practice, is to lie
with the head toward the north pole.
Persons VINO sleep with their heads in
the opposite directions are liable to fall
into various nervous disorders. When
they go back to the right position these
disorders, if not too deeply impressed
upon the constitution soon vanish. Sens
sitive persons are always more refreshed
by sleep when their heads point due
north. Architects, in building, should
bear the principle in mind.

D9A prediction recorded by some
transatlantic mathematical genius, in the
year 1905, has received, in the returns
of the national census, remarkable YER
i6cation. Fifty five years ago New York
contained 75,700 inhabitants, which this
curious individual predicted would be in
creased to 8S2,s62 in 1860. This esti-
mate was published in Valentine 8 "Man
ual of the Common Council" of that
date. Another calculator, taking the
ratio of increase since 1905 as basis,
finds that in 1900 the city of New York
will contain 5 ,257, ,4s3 inhabitants, being
at least 1000, 900 more than the present
population of London: Should London,
however, continue to increase during
the remainder of the century at the
same rate as during the last forty years,
her population will then considerably
exceed that anticipated for New York,

One Jonah.

One Jonah.
Not long since, in South Carolina, a
Clergyman was preaching on the disobe-
dience Of Jonah, when commanded TO go
and prsaeh to- the Ninevites. After ex-
patiating fer a considerable length of
time on the truly awful consequence of
disobedience to the divine commands,
he exclaimed, in voice of thunder, that
passed through the congregation like an
electric shock, "And are there any
Jonahs here?" There was a negro
present whose name was Jonah, who,
thinking himself called on, Immediately
arose, and turning up his white eyes to
the preacher, with his broadest grin and
hest bow, answered, "Here be one,

A waggish Comedian Burlesqueing
Sentiment.
Thisstory is told Of Charles Salisbury,
the comedian, by Boston correspon-
dent:
In Portland, the other day, horse
and. cart ran over a little pig. The
squeals of the dying pig brought together
acrowd of people, including several med
ical men, There was considerable
anxiety respecting the unfortunate pig,
and whether he had any relations. just
then, Salisbury came rushing out Of the
house without his hat, while his hair
was tossed by the wind, "Make
way there, gentlemen-for Heavens
sake, make way" he cried, in supplica-
ting tones. The crowd respectfully di-
vided, and Salisbury approached the
spot where the pig was suffering the
agonies Of death. He kneh down rev.
erently, wiped tear from His eye, and,
as the poor sainted little pig gave his
last gasp, the comedian, exclaimed, in a
tender and impressive manner" Let
me KISS him for has mother.
