The Retina's Revelations.

One of the first fruits of the daguer-
reotype art was the suggestion that I'M
known murderers could be detected by
photographing the last image left on the
retina of the murdered persons eye. The
idea that this could be done seems to
have taken strong hold of many magma
tons, and we believe this suggestion is re-
peated to the police authorities of New
York on the occurrence of every noticea-
bic and mysterious murder That such a
detective task will ever be accomplished
by photography is extremely doubtful, on
account of the length of time that usual
ly passes before the discovery of muir
der But science has now advanced so
far that the image on the retina has been
tired and photographed. This has been
done by Prof. Kuhne, of Heidelberg but
not with human subjects, as decapita-
ton is one necessary part of the process.
Prof. Kuhne placed rabbit four and a
half feet from a clo7ed window, in the
shutter of which was an opening twelve
inches square. The animals head was
first covered by black cloth for five
minutes and then exposed for three min
utes. The head was then instantly cut
off and one eye taken out in room IL

Getting to Sleep.

Is there anything more distressing than
sleeplessncss when you want to go to
sleep, and feel that you ought to 60 to
sleep, and that you must GO to sleep any
way, and yet cannot?
You toss about from one side to the
other, drawing your feet up, and stretch
ing them down-putting your arms I'M
der the quilts, and outside them, lying
first on your right side, and then on your
left, changing occasionally to your back
The more you turn and twist, and the
harder you try to 60 to sleep, the wider
awake you become.
You fancy there is some trouble about
the pillow, and you turn it over, and
beat it up, and tuck the case smoothly
under, and put your head down carefully,
but sleep does not come.
Then you think perhaps the bed is too
hard, and get UP and pat it, and smooth
out imaginary wrinkles, and shake sheets,
and 60 to bed again feeling sure that you
can sleep now.
But you were never more mistaken in
your life.
After you have had your eyes tightly
shut for ten minutes, and have been
growing more and more wakeful each
moment, you bethink yourself of the
numerous recipes" you have read in
the papers for promoting the perform
ance of going to sleep.
You begin and count six hundred. No

cation table as far as you know, but the
result is the same. Then you go through
with the Ten Commandments, and the

Prayer, and thirty days hath Septem.
ber"-and still you are just as far from
the wishedfor result.
Then you begin to repeat what poetry
you can remember, beginning with Long
fellows Psalm of Life" and ending
with Mother Goose's
Hickory Dickory Dock,
The mouse ran up the clock"
Then you roll your eyes IN the sockets,
and try to imagine that you see smoke
issuing from your nostrils, according to
the prescribed formula, and you do a
hundred other things equally absurd; but
it is all labor lost.
You toss out the weary night, and fall
asleep just as the breakfast bell rings,
and you are expected to make your APP
pearance, fresh as the lark, to entertain
company and make things generally
pleasant.
The human will is a mighty power,
and can build cities and move mountains;
but when it comes to apply itself to the
getting of nervous person to sleep
it is powerless. -Kdte Thorn.
