Music anu Medicine.

There can be no question about the
influence of music upon tine process of
thought and emotion; and disease, we
know, is very largely matter of think
ing and feeling. Why, then should not
disease be controlled by the application
OF concord of given sounds as well as
by the swallowing of a prescribed course
of pills or powders2 In many cases. per-
haps, what we call disease is only u long
ing for harmony and melody. a reaching
out after something pleasant to listen TO.

but his theory evidently tends toward
such result. Every mental excitement
or emotion, he declares, is accompanied
by corresponding muscular action, and

WORDS OF WISDOM.


He that wants hope is the poorest maD
He that's down, down with him, cries
the world.
He who knows nothing is confident in
everything.
Promises hold men faster than benefits;
hope Is cable and gratituds thread.
One may live as conqucsor, king
or magistrate; but he r1ust die as
man.
You cannot jump over i mountain,
but step by step takes you TO the other
side.
When any calamity has been suffered.
the first thing TO be remembered is. how
much has been escaped.
know Of but two beautiful things
the starry heavens above my head, and
the sense of duty within my heart.
Let man learn that everything in
nature, even notes and feathers, goes by
law and not by "luck," and that what
he sows he reaps.
OF all passions jealousy is that which
exacts the hardest service and paws the
bittercst wages. It's service is to watch
the success Of our enemy; its wages to be
sure of it.
To know the pains of power we must
go TO those who have it; 10 know its
pleasures we must go to those who are
seeking it. The pans of power are real,
its pleasures imaginary.
Friends and enemies are many-sided.
and, while we.may correctly see parts OF
their characters, other parts are yelled
from us. Every one has his virtues and
vices, his excellencies and shortcomings,
and, while much we see in him may be
actually there, there is much more. of
which we never dream.

The Mind Dnring starsatlon.

The recent case Of cannibalism at sea
opens up some curious questions as TO
the moral nature of man. To the super
fetal observer, death by starvation sim
ply means q wasting of the body, horri-
BILE agony, an increasing weakness. a
lethargic state of the brain, and sleep
from which there is no awakening: but
is this ell that it meansa While this is
going on, let us consider whether or not
the intellectual faculty, and with it the
power of distinguishing rightfgom wrong,
is not also undergoing process of vast
ing and death, even before that of the
material part.
Reasoning by analogy, we find that
in many cases Of bodily disease, the state
of the mind is the first indicator of
the mischief going on in the system.
Take even such q simple thiag as indi-
gestion, which, as every one must know,
is only . manifestation of deranged

the lowness of spirits induced by this
affection may vary from slight detection
and ill-humor TO the most extreme melan-
choly, sometimes inducing even dis
position to suicide. The sufferer mis-
conceives every act of friendship, and
exaggerates slight ailments into heavy
grievances. So in starvation the power
of reason seems paralvzed and the intel
lectual faculty dazed really before the
