Spiritualism has a new hobby. That
famous Methodist, the Rev. DR.. ID, d.
Wheden, had shortly before his death
evolved a curious theory as to disem-
bodied spirits. His idea was that the en-
tire nervous system in a human being, not
the contents Of the Uranium alone, consti-
tuted the mind. There fore the rami6ca-
tons of the nerves. forming in themselves
a shape conforming exactly to hat of the
whole figure, made the soul of man just
like his body so far as con6guration was
concerned. He believed that at death
this tour and semblance of the dead body
separated itself, and became the eternal
form Of the spirit, visible to its fellows,
and, under some conditions. to terrestrial
folks DIR. Wheden described how the
soul gets u Of the body. Emerging
upward, he says, the spirit awakes into
the pure cther-a blessed atmosphere.
This %paradisiac ether is an effluence from
the divine essence. and the em%ancipated
soul bathes, swims. lives IN It's own genial
aud native element Paradise thus per-
vades our air above and around us, and at
death the spirit enters thereinto as through
a veil lie intimated that apparitions

beings angeloids. and argued that they

corpse, the baser attributes. The peril

spirtualism lies in its harmony with the

upon carpet design

A poor farmer once owned an onor-
nous goose, that laid a golden egg
every month; but MS the farmer was
very anxious TO pay on a mortgage on
his property, he killed tho phenominal
goose and got more gold from her body
than could be obtained from a couple of
gold mines. In fact, a complete trans
formation was wrought In the farmers
affairs and prospects: his ear-sighted
acquaintance suddenly found that they
could recognize him in a dense fog: the
wart on his nose, which had previously
been regarded as a hideous excrescence,
was rs ertained, on a closer inspection,
TO be a unique, picturesque and esthetic
equipment; and the neighborhood wag,
who had often said that when the
farmer talked it was like running the
English language through the sausage
grinder. - now affirmed that his speech
was remarkably free from the hamper
ing conventionalities Of the day" The
farmer was Don master of n princely es-
adjustment, and built him a dog-house
Of solid gold.
Moral-lt is wasting time to catch
fish with a hook when you can rake
them in by the bushel with a seine; and
it is useless to walk up nine flights OF
stairs when you can take the elevator.

-How are they manufacturer"
We'll. you sec. there are twenty-five
horns used in this seat which we are ex.
aiming. Of COURSE a smaller number Of
horns can be used in some styles only
eighteen are required. but these do not
have as neat an appearance and are much
cheaper. The mode of manufacture Is
quite simple. The horns after being
thoroughly cleansed. steamed. and scraped
10 the proper thickness, are filed or
stuffed with sawdust and glue. After
being thoroughly dried and polished. the
horns are fastened into the proper position
with brass rivets and glue. Then follows
the upho stering operation. which is very
simple. but upon the whole the chairs
thus made may be considered very
artistic. -
And the demands there much call
for this style Of furniture2
Yes, indeed There are many chairs
now IN use in sevcrf of the Nob hill
