/ have never much admired the way
in which declarations of love are made
in France. With us the foolish animal
has to go on his knees at a woman's
feet. With her eyes modestly dropped
on us, this little demon of observation
makes an inventory of all our smallest
defects-of our hair. growing sparser,
of our languishing eyes turned up and
showing their whites; of little wart
which we thought concealed. L put it
squarely that in this little scene it
seems to me we have to play supreme
ly ridiculous part. If any one of my
readers is not of this opinion, let him
put this question to himself, "Should 1
ever think of being photographed in
the attitude above described?" L await
his answer. They manage these things
differently in England. You sit down
comfortably, very much at your ease.
You have the adored object of your
dreams at your side or at your feet, and
you can murmur your sweet whispers
of love into her ear without ever dis
locating your vertebral column. You
may even smoke your cigar, without
any fear of giving offense, all the time
you tell your love and build your cas-
ties in Spain. "Then you are some
thing of pasha," can imagine some
emancipated women exclaiming. Not
ut all, madame; it is no question of mas
ter and slave; it is a matter mot of
slavery but of exalted duty. Les

Sleep, Trance, and Death.

The relationship between sleep, "the
cousin of DEATH" and death itself is
probably real as well as apparent. The
distance which separates them is great,
but they are intermediate conditions,
grades of dissolution as of development.
Among these the similar states of
trance and Information are worthy of
special notice. For sleep and for
trance one cause, exhaustion chiefly
of nervous matter, but more or less Of
every organ and tissue, is assignable.
The hysterical stupor is the sleep of
nerve centers, worn out with the as
sault and conflict of stormy reflex &C.
ton. Healthy sleep is the rest of
physical elements wearied by the same
strain applied more gradually. Cases
have been recorded in which somno-
lence, continued for days without ces-
sation, has resembled trance in dura-
ton, while preserving all the ordinary
features of natural sleep. Various
facts support us in associating the hi
bernation of animals with the same
train of organic or functional changes
as the other unconscious states we have
been considering. 1t comes like hab-
it; it has, one may say, annual return; ;
its apparent cause is the oppression of
external cold, and the animals which IT
affects are those which, from their bod
lily structure or habits, are subject to
great periodic variations of tempera-
ture. Vital tissue is exhausted, and
function is in part suspended, probably
because the numbness of cold has TAX
en- hold upon the radicles of the outer
circulation and that part of the brain
surface which is connected with it by
numerous anastomoses. In such ane-
mia would seem to be the cause of
the winter sleep, as there is evidence
to show that it is also the cause of that
temporary starvation of the brain
which lulls without arresting its action,
in the natural repose of each night
We may even regard the lethargy,
ended by death, into which man falls
when exposed to great cold, as sort of
mortal hibernation.-Bri Medical
