Power oftha Imagination.

In the course Of a highly interesting lee
tuse on the power Of imagination, deliver
ed in Manchester, England, the erudite
Dir. Mobiles told The following story:
NJ. Courthouse served in Napoleon's ar
my, and was present At many engagements
during the early part Of the present cen
tury. In The battle Of Wagram, in 1907,
while in the front ranks, and in the ACT Of
re-loading his musket, he WAS, as he sup,
posed, deprived Of both legs by cannon
ball. He felt no pain, but this be attrib-
uted 10 the stunning effect Of the shock Oh
the brain and nervous system. and he lay
motionless during the entire night, not daI-
ing to move a muscle lest The loss Of blood
should be fatally increased. At early
dawn he was aroused by one Of the med
zeal staff, and an examination proved that
he was uninjured The ball had passed
under his feet, and had pIowed hole in
the earth at least foot in depth, into
which his sudden sinking produced the
that he had been deprived OF
both bis limbs.

DIVISION OF GRANT COUNTY, WIs.-The
Grant Co. Herald reports certain people
ID stated portions Of that county in favor
of division, so as to create more county
seats and more offices to be looked after
BIZ the sectionalists. The county scat Of
Grant is easily approached from all por
ions Of the county, is central, and has be-
eome one Of TIE most Leautiful villages in
the State. There is no good reason for
ahision; Grant has no corrupt officials
Pms good county buildings, and ought
taerefore TO remain "Old Grant" Yet,
should the question come up, considering
The increase Of population 10 the division
