Remarkable Cure of Rheumatism by
Magnetism.

DR.. T. Robbins, ll9, South Main

gratitude that I inform the public that /
came to you last January, suffering from
severe attack of Inhammatory Rheu-
matism. was so i'll that / had to be
helped into your rooms, and in five days
treating by you with magnetism, with
out the aid OF medicine, was able to
walk alone, and IN one months time l
was cured, feeling better than l had
been for years. The reason why pub
lish this testimonial is because some per-
sons assert that cures by magnetism are
not permanent. l have now left off
treatment for over four months and have
had no return of the Rheumatism.
Thanking you for your kindness in re-
moving the pains OF humanity. l remain
yours respectfully,

Turned Gray an a night.

Many remarkable tales haYe been
told of persons who, by reason OF fright
or other causes, have found that their
hair has turned white in a single night.
But there is not. We believe, anywhere
on record a case where a person went
to bed at night in calm state OF mind,
rested soundly until daylight, and
awoke in the morning to find that dur
ing sleep his or her hair had changed
from ebony tC silver. That Is to say,
there never was such case Until last
weeR, when Just this sort of al incident
occurred in Boston. The subject was a
lady. who retired at her usual hour,
taking with her to her room another
and an elderly lady, visitor, who had
arrived late III the day, and Tor whom
no other accommodation could be ar
ranged. The subject of this incident
was noted for the fneness and beauty
of her hair, which was said by good
judges-people who had been abroad
and were acquainted with the appear
ance of ravens-to rival the ravens wing
in black1ess and lustre. Being blessed
with good conscience, and having
eaten nothing indigestible at supper,
the lady slept peacefully during the
night. and awoke refreshed IN the
morning.
But on looking toward the mirror
she saw that her hair, instead of being
black, as when she went to bed, was
plentifully streaked with gray. She
sprang up at once ID assure herself by
nearer survey, and had Just become
convinced that her first view was cor
rect, when at that moment her elderly
companion, who had already dressed
and gone down stairs, entered the
room, and with the words: ''It was SO
dark when L got up that put on the
wrong swlth, replaced upon the bureau
black and glossy coil; catching up
then the gray tresses that had for
moment SO alarmed the young lady,
she deity arranged them IN their APP
proprlate places, and again quietly
Withdrew.

Eoiled Water.

In an article in knowledge on scien-
tific cookery, Mr.. W. Williams called
attention to the danger of using drink
lng-water full of organic impurities.
Such water, he says. supplies nutriment
to those microscopic denominations, the
nlicrocOcci, baciHi, bacteria, ETC..
which are now shown to be connected
with blood-poisoning-possibly do the
whole of the poisoning business
These little pests are harmless, and
probably nutritious, when cooked, but
IN their raw and wri2gling state are
horribly prolific in the blood of people
who are III certain states OF what Is
called ''receptlvity." They (the 6acte-
ria, etc., appear to be poisoned or
somehow killed off by the digestive
secretions of the blood Of some people,
and nourished luxuriantly in the blood
of others. As nobody can be quite sure
to which class he belongs, or may pre-
sently belong, or whether the waite
supplied to his household is free from
blood-poisoning organisms, cooked
water is a safer beverage than raw
water, Reflection ON this subject,
says Mr.. Williams, 81 have been struck
with IA curious fact that has hitherto
escaped notice, viz, that in the country
which over all others combines very
large population with very small
allowance Of cleanliness, the ordinary
drink of the people is boiled water fla-
vored by an infusion of leaves. These
people, the Chinese. seem, III TACT, to
have been the inventors OF boIled-water
beverages. Judging from travellers
accounts OF the state of the rivers, rivu-
lets, and general drainage and irriga-
ton arrangements of China, its popu-
lation could scarcely have reached It's
present density if Cinnamon were drink
ers Of raw instead of cooked water"

Glass Houses.

1t is certain that the glass houses OF
Alexandria were celebrated among the
ancients for the skill and ingenuity OF
their workmen and from thence the
Romans, who did not acquire a knowl-
edge of the art till later period, pro-
cured all their glassware. Most OF the
large, greenish glass vases IN the B1t-
ish Museum are probably the produc-
tion of extensive Egyptian or Roman
works; they are large. and of excellent
form and workmanship but the glass
is somewhat impure, of greenish tint,
has numerous globules and STRIFE, anu
is not ike tine modern common crown
or sheet glass in quality. Strabo re-
lates that glassmaker OF Alexander
Informed him that an earth (probable
manganese) was found in Egypt, with
out which the valuable colored glass
could not be made. 1t Is also related
that the Emperor Hadrian received as
present from an Egyptian. priest sew

color these, as costly wares, We're or

Sunday Service On AN English Mnn-of-War.

The weather not being propitious
divine service was held on the main
instead of the upper deck. In the lat
ter case it is more impressive. Sur
rounded by the wide waste Of water,
the restless ocean, type at once OF our
lives and of eternity, the small distrac-
tions, trihes, and incidents of shore
exist not. Nature is at her grandest
and noblest; man cannot be Inexpensive
to the influence. The church pennant
was flying from every vessel, and for
the time being all other considerations
were lost sight of and put aside for the
combined act of worship. To-day, on
the main deck, all we could see of the
water came through the portfolios.
Service was held i'll the battery of the
vessel. the guns pointing on each side.
A reading deck was arranged, draped
with a flag; the singing was led by a
harmonium. The bell tOlled a few
minutes before service began. but the
single stroke struck at intervals had
the melancholy sound OF passing
bell'' rather than aught else. Being

on benches III front of the chaplain, so
that he had them well In hand. The
captain and officers were at the side and
behind the reading-desk. 1t was i'm
possible to sail with the chaplain oil the
Defence without soon feeling for him
high esteem. He was the type OF what
parson should be In daily lie and IN
all manner of conversation. For the
sailors he was especially the right man
in the tight place. And difficult
and discouraging task often Is that oil
chaplain to man-of-war. Sunday after
noon was always pleasant on board
There was q stiffness and repose even
IN the very air We breathed. Sanskrit,
whist, backgammon. arguments, every
thing was put out of sight for the DAY;
We enjoyed rest ami leisure. Service
was held twice every Sunday on board
the Defence. The men were obliged TO
attend Ill the morning, but their pres
ence in the evening was optional. The
chaplain instituted hls own form OF
worship at night. A shoit prayer or
two, then the sermon; after that a por-
ton of the evening liturgy. Always
plenty OF singing, which the men liked,
ard occasionally would join in rather
too heartily. On the main deck you
have low roof to contend with, a very
different matter from the long drawn
aisles and fretted vaults of Il cathedral.
1t was more acceptable to sensitive car,
when service was held on the upper
deck. There the mems voices rooled
upon the air as they 'the strain up
raised" But the blue sky, unlike the
fretted vault, could send back no echo
or make response. Yet it was the
grandest of all domes; natures Owl

Drawbridge Signals.

An Eastern railway company has
adopted a system of drawbridge signals
which, it is claimed, will greatly reduce
the danger of accidents. These signals
are worked by series of levers, five in
number, tie first two working sema-
phore signals at distance of 1000 feet
and 500 feet. respectively, from bridge.
The other three work the switches OF
tie siding and the lock OF the bolt
which holds tue draw in place. Before
the bridge can be unlocked that a YES
sci may pass through the draw, these
levers must be worked in their order.
Ii is impossible TO work them III any
other way, the interlockiDg preventing
the draw-tender or signalman from NOV
ing the higher numbered lever until he
has first moved the lower number. He
cannot, when the draw is closed, re-
place the levers except in the regular
reverse order. 1t follows that danger
signal must first be shown at distance
of l 900 feet from the draw, and IT that
warning to bring his train under control
for stop is neglected by the engineer,
the signal is again given at 500 feet dis
OLOulu l4llo cS A-SC4NNe~Nt
the engineer will find his train switched
to side track, and thus prevented
from plunging into the open draw, for
the draw cannot be open unless 1t has
previously been III locked it cannot be
unlocked until the safety-switch has
first been unbolted and set for the 81
ding the switch cannot be set until
the home signal kas been set for dan
ger, and the home signal cahnot be set
for danger until the distance signal has
been so set. These operations are re-
peated on the other side of the draw,
which is fitted with bolt at each end.
rSupplementaI apparatus Is provided so
that the signalman may know at dis
tance of miles that a train Is ap-
preaching, so that the draw may not
be opened and trains delayed unneces-
sarily. 1t is further claimed that when
the draw, even if closed, should be an
locked, the safety switch cannot be
thrown on the main line either by accl,
dent or design, and therefore no train
can possibly run into the draw.

TrepannIng IN Prehistoric Times.

One of the most curious traces OF
primitive belief which have come down
10 us is found in the trepanned skulls
which have been discovered IN several
caves and dolmens of France belonging
to the earlier portion of the new stone
age. DIR. Paul Broca has devoted a
pamphlet to the description of these
trepanned skulls and the discussion CT
their significance. The fact Is certain
that a great number of these skulls
we're trepanned during lifetime-proba-
bly, In infancy and early youth-and
that they healed up again, the subject
of the operation surviving 1t for many
years. NJ. Broca supposes this trepan-
ming to have constituted sacred rite
of some sort, for We find that the skulls
of these very persons who had under
gone the operation III their lifetime
were after death subjected again to the
same operation. A number Of small
disks were cut from them IN such way
that each disk contained a portion oil
the cicatrized edge made by the original
trepanuing. These disk were used as
amulets by living persons. But the
skull thus treated was in its turn pro-
vided with one of these talis.lanic disk:
in place of those which had been cu
from itself. From this custom M. Bro
ca has argued belief in the survival o
the dead man, and supposed that thu
disk was placed with the skull to serv'
as a kind of viailcum into anothe
world.

\ Judge fooled.

As illustrating some of the remarkable
laws of Indiana on the subject OF divorce,
the Hon. Thaddeus p Rollins yester-
dly related story of divorce which
he procured in Cass county some years
since before Judge Chase. The
allegations in the complaint were
drunkenness and general worthlessness
of the defendant. When the case came
on a witness was called to prove the
character and habits of the defendant.
Mr.. Rollins asked him the question:
''Do you know Mr., the defendant
in this case. Mr.. Baird?" The answer
was in the affirmative. At this point
Judge Chase looked up and said: MIR.
Baird, tell me if that man is the same
Mr.-who was in Company X OF the
Indiana Regiment during the war.
'The same man, Judge" was the
answer. "You need go no further, MIR.
Rollins" said the Judge, "the divorce
is granted" and judgement was entered
accordingly for the plaintiff. After
Court adjourned the Judge was Ioked
about the nasty entry of the judgement,
referring to the fact that no evidence
had been introduced INTO the case.
'Why, gentlemen" sand his Honot, 81
knsw that fellow. He was IN my CON-
pany during the war. and l viii never
let a woman live with him II she asks
me for divorce L know him better
than any witness that can be brought
here"
