A dfsbeliever in spiritual manifestations in
discussing the peculiar phenomena, known az
table tipping, said the moveu mt of the table
was due solely to the muscular action of those
Sitting at the table and that so-called spirits
had nothing to do with it. 'Faradav." said
he, 1.-The great scientist, had his attention d.
rected to the table tipping. He saw that the
table would move if several people gathered
about it and placed the tips of their fingers
on the surface. He concluded, after taking
part in several such entertainments that the
movement was caused by the muscular ac-
ton of some one at the table. Every one de-
MED that he or she applied any force to the
tables. Faraday insisted and. 10 prove his
point constructed an instrument after the
style of the galvanometer, that would cause
the needle to point in the direction of any one
applying force. even though each force was
applied unconsciousy. He was placed in
the center of the table, and shortly after the
session began,the needle pointed to a woman,
who drew back as if frightened. She had
unconseiously pressed against the table, an
ticipating such movement and the table
tilted up. It's the same nowadays"
So
Baibers will talk. A tongue-tied barber has
never been discovered. A deaf and dumb
tonsorial artist lived long time ago. before
America was discovered, when Anna Diokin-
son was young lady. He died. Starvation
was the cause of death. Customers he had
many. But, on account of his infrnity. be
was unable to ask them if they wanted a
shampoo or hair cut. So his business grad
uallv dropped away. The customers imag-
ined that the barber did not know his BUSH
ness and that he had no hair res torative that
would convert an ordinary tarpaulin into a
buffalo af er the third trial. So they went
elsewhere. where they got a conversation
thrown in with their shaves.
