"You never could have read Walter
SCOTS Lady of the Lake In the
chase Ben Werlich was one of the prin-
cipal hunters. Echo is the name of
his dog. Don't you remember where it
says: ...
"No rest Ben vor.ich's Echo knew.
"This dog never takes rest either,
SO call him Echo" rt'
The neighbor did not say anything,
but that night he softly called Echo to
the fence, gave him piece of sausage,
and now Echo is as silent as Ben Vor
Itch, and even more so.-Teras SJtings

The discussion of electric-hght dan
gers springs up or breaks out often and
in numerous places. A scientist and
expert was asked if mans life was in
danger when his body was exposed to
the current of electricity necessary to
feed the electric light. His reply was
that no man knew the extent of the dam
ger, or rather the extent of the injury
that might be incurred. If a man
should place his hands upon thu wire
before the generator started and keep
them there until the machine stopped,
as he might be obliged to whether LIE
wanted to or not, since the muscles
would contract very strongly-if he did
this, it is believed that he would be
comparatively safe; but if his hands
were removed, if they could be, or ii
the wire should break while the genera
tor was in operation, he would receive
IN induction spark that might kill him
and might not. That would depend on
what part was affected and upon the
mans physical condition. 1t might
paralyze the heart, it might cause stran-
gulation, and in any case would be like
ly to cause more or less arrangement Of
the nervous system. But the positive
or definite result will not be known,
cannot be known, except by actual ex'
perience. Some light may be thrown
upon it by experiments on lower ami
mais. Even then man may not be sat
isfed, and proceed to test and perhaps
kill himself. Then we shall know, anC
possibly not till then. -ProVidenc'
