THE FROZEN PUMP.

Anybody who has ever tried to uuirceze
frozen pump knows what tina; updertak
ing Is; those who have never been brought
face to face and compelled To wIestlc with
such a domestic catastrophe know nothing
about il. 1t is all very tine to say that
pouring water down the pump log will re-
o,en communications with the well; some
lines it will, but more times 1t will not.
The hot water just stays there, and in 4
little while 1t gets cold and then 1t freezes
and things are worse than ever. Every
body who has ever Iried dropping live Goals
down into the bowels OF frozen pump
knows what that amounts to-rhat the Goals
grit around inside the log, and when the
thaw does come, get damned in the box, ="
rough up the leather of the bucket - so

lowering it down inside the pump by the
clothes line seems promising. After the
man has scored his fingers. burnt hole
in his trousers and had the poker get away
from him ana remain as part OF the pump's
Intervals, he is inclined to believe that this
theory does not amount TO much in pIac-
tice. The womans suggestion, that til"
salt bag be emptied down the pump is not
the end desired: but during the long weeks
that the well remains a miniature salt, salt
sea, the whole family are as SO many an
cient mariners. The end Of the matter is.

household has been exhausted, Old John
is called in. Nobody knows exactly how

and 4 good many of the Goals, and-if the

extent Of bursting the log-wiiEin an hour
he has repaired damages and got the pump

times is relieved: but it is impossible ever
to feel the same toward that pump again
it has played the household false. Aud

Relations Of Mind and Body.

Dr. Chas. F. Taylor, in Popular Sci

Whatever that thing, fact, function or

whether the. brain, as is generally beiev-

VARYING bodily conditions are accom-
panied bv related variations OF mental
states. Asphasia, insanity, imbecility,
are so often found accompanied by GER
tain definite pathological alterations in
the brain substance that are generally
held to be symptomatic Of such local
changes. So, also, though in a more
general way, melanchOlia and depres-
sion, as well as eXaltatiOns and excite
ment of the mind, are known to depend
largely on corresponding general body
conditions of retarded or accelerated
physiological processes.
Ii is also held, though in a less deiin-
tie manner, that the health OF the body
NAV be affected, beneficially or inju-
riOuSlv, bv certain states of mind, as OF
hope or dependency. Or, more in de-
taIi, medical men have observed that
certain mental states affect certain iunc-
tons in certain different ways. As, for
instance, sudden anxiety, as Ofthe non

cause an increase OF the pcristaltic ac-

cause the contrary effect. JOY Over
