I began to be terrified to such won.
Slerfal extentas1 would never before have
guessed possible. i made an invol-
untary effort TO get out of the chair, and
theri--suddenly became aware that Twas
looking at nothing; while taken mp by
the confusionin my lungs, the outward
thingsiin the room had gone, and i was
ssalone in the dark" 4 felt a force ON
my arm (which did not strike me as the
surgeons "hand," but merely as an
external restraint) keeping me down,
and this was the last straw which made
me give in, the last definite thing (smell,
sound, sight or touch) j remembered
outside of my own body. Instantly I
was seized and overwhelmed by the
panic inside. 1tcould feel every air.cell
struggling systematically against an
awful pressure. In their struggle they
seemed to tear away from one another in
all directions, and there was universal
racking torture, while meantime the
common foe, i'm the shape of this iron
pressure, kept settling down with more
and more irresistible might into every
nook and crevice of the scene. My con-
seriousness was snow about this: j was
not aware of anything but an isolated
scene of terror (and by what j hayesince
learned lis called a"tthe unity of con-
scionmess;;" this never deserted the
scene, even down to the very last in

"scene," because ] recognized come diff
ferent parts of my body, and felt that
the pain in one part was not the same az
that in another Meanwhile, along with
the increased intensity of cenvulsion in
my lungs, an element of noise had sprung
up. A chaotic roaring ran through my
brain, innumerable drums began to beat
far inside my ear, till the confusion pres
emily came to monstrous thudding,
every thud of which wounded me like a
club falling repeatedly on tine same spot.

Broken Hearts.
Chambers journal.

8~~r~~N~s's'
A man is said to be fred" tor white"
with rage. In using these expressions
we are physolegically speaking of the
nervous condition of the minute tcircula-
ton of the mans blood. "Red" rage
means partial paralysis of minute blood
vessels; and t'white" rage means tenn
porary suspension of the action of the
circulation itself. But such disturbance
can mot he produced without the oc-
currence Of permanent organic evils OF
the vital organs, especially of the heart
and brain. One striking example is
given by DIR. Richardson, inlthe case of
q member of his own profession. This
gentleman told me that an original irri-
liability of temper was permitted, by
want of due control, TO pass into o dis
position of almost persistent orchronic
anger, 90 that every ttriiie in his way was
a cause of understandable Irritation.
Somtimes his anger was 20 vehement that
all about him were alarmed for him even
more than for themselves; and when the
attack was over there were hours of sor-
row and regret in private, which were
not as exhapsting as the previous rage.
In the midst of one of these outbreaks
of short, severe madness, he suddenly
ielt, te use his own expression, as if his
'ssheart were lost" He Feeled under the
impression, was nauseated and faint;
then recovering, he put his hand to his
wrist and discovered an intermittent ac>
ton of his heart as the cause of his
iaintness. He never completely rallied
from that shock, and to the day of his
death, ten years later, he was never free
from intermlttency. ~ am broken
hearted" he would say, physically
brokenshearted." And 80 he was; but
knowledge of the broken heart tempered
margelonsly his passion and saved him
many years of o really useful life. He
died ultinately from an acute terrible
disorder. q

But he had serious scrnples as to
whether it was right or wrong to kill his
fellow creatures at the bidding of others,
or, in fact, whether it was not crime to
kill his fellow men at all.

He decided that it was wrong, espe-

commission and entered the church,
thinking that as he was an intelligent

do more good to humanity in that line
than in the other line.
