Henry Heath's first hats

weather prophets to increased activity.
Hurricanes, cyclones and every kind OF
disaster are freely predicted. There are
two reasons why these people should
hold their peace at this time. Many
nervous people are already suffering
from the shock recently given them.
Why increase their miseries by further
alarm sound ard still stronger
reason Is that these weather prophets
know nothing whatever about such

al man R1oun to Atnma.

1 saw one of the men who was burned
in the tunnel accident and it reminded
me forcibly of the worst mishap ever
witnessed. The citizens of little town
in Indiana were celebrating the battle of
Pittsburg Landing. which had just been
fought, and were firing salutes from a
24pounder- After the gun had been
fired eight or ten times it became very
warm, and while they were loading the
man who was serving the vent took his
thumb away and put it in his mouth to
cool it. The gun went off, so did the
ramrod and the man who was handling
it. The ramrod was never found, and
but little of the man. A hunt was made
for his remains, but the searchers found
only a finger here or toe there, until
finally they procured rakes and raked
the prairie for about a mile. Several
hours were spent in this operation, but
the results were small, for all of the man
that was found was carried to an under
takers in a water bucket.-Cor. Globe

AItorntions in the Air Pressure.

The British Medical Journal recently
emphasized the value of the mechanical
treatment of certain affections of the re-
spiratory tract by means of artificial all
teratiOns in the air pressure. We are all
familiar with the advantages attending
a change of air with certain classes of
patients, and much of the good so OBJ
tanned is due, according to The Journal,
"to the change of atmospheric pressure
in combination with variation in the hy-
groscopic and electric properties of the
respired air."
The therapeutical value of rarefied or
compressed air in lung troubles has been
for some time strongly asserted. But the
precise conditions under which patients
should be subjected to increased or re-
duced pressure and the degree of such
variation are points yet to be expert
mentally determined. DIR. Yeo, of Lon
don, has shown that the low air pressure
of the Alpine resorts (at attitudes of 5000
feet is highly conducive to the health of
pulmonary patients in the early stages of
phthisis. II may be questioned, how
ever, whether the benefit of high level
resorts is not as much due to the purity
and dryness of the air as to its rarefac-
ton. The therapeutical value of air
pressure changes must therefore be tested
where all the other conditions are the
Tribune.

The FRANCO of the Doyout Hindoo.

How this condition differs from the
unconsciousness of chloroform inhala-
ton, SO far as the mental state is con-
cerned, it is very difficult to perceive. 1t
does not appear to differ at all from the
mesmeric sleep. Even the methods
adopted to bring it about are the same in
both. These are, as may be learned from
works devoted to the eastern faiths, the
following: The seeker after nirvana
should stand motionless, or gaze fixedly
at the sky, or a luminous object, or the
tip of the nose, or repeat continually the
monosyllable ON (the sacred name Of
Brahm) fixing the mind the while on the
attributes of the supreme God; to hold
the breath or slow the breathing to the
utmost; ito have no heed of times or
place." these are the modes of causing
zone to be like unto the placid lamp set
in place where the wind blows not"
Having attained the happy condition
occultists are seeking, the yoghi stands
or sits motionless and mute; at times he
speaks, signs, or gestures expressing the
vision that is before his mental eyes; his
eyes are open, but he no longer sees or
hearts, unless it is the person or voice of
some particular Individual. General
sensibility is gone; pricking, pinching or
burning has no pain. They remember
fairly well what they saw or felt in the
trance or ecstasy. Their mental state
seems to be reduced to one image,
idea or isolated group of ideas, which
seem to receive the entire attention to
the exclusion of everything else. All
parts of the brain not thus engrossed are
asleep, that is to say, utterly Inactive

sporadic cases of CannibaIism.

Conscious cannibalism is by no means
confined to the Feejee islands. The Rio
Virgen tribes of the Aracanos Indians,
on the northern coast of Chill, do not
hesitate in hard winter to keep the pot
boiling by slicing up few of their super
huous relatives; and DIR. NatchtigaH is
positive that the country north and east
of the Congo is swarming with two
legged man-eaters. The Dyaks of Bor-
neo, who gather skulls as our red men
used to gather scalps, now and then eat
a personal enemy as a matter of hygienic
precaution, on the theory that the wizard
spells of the dead mans relatives can
thus be rendered Intellectual. Sporadic
cases of cannibalism occur in every East
Indian famine. The nations Of Europe
alone are in that respect total abstainers,
at the present at least, for Roman tradi-
tions date back to time when the
Laestrygones of southern Italy kept spe-
cial stock yards for fattening their pris-
oners of war.-Dr. Felix l.. Oswald.
