M, Alexandra, the French ventriloquist,
passing one day near the now defunct
Temple Bar, observed a large load of hay
struggling through the gateway. He in.
stantly initiated the cries of a suffering
man, and drew the attention of passcrs-by
TO the mufiied sounds. The cart was
stopped in a most announcement position.
and a crowd of persons assisted to unload
the hay, the cries Of the supposed man
within growing fast and furious, AS tho
mob worked with redoubled energy. Just
as they were getting TO the bottom Of the
cart, the moaning ceased, and the workers
gave the man up as dead, though still pro.

the silence, however, was not the sudden

GROWTH OF STONES,
Minerals said to BE Alive Creatures of
Vital PulSations,

We generally think of minerals as
dead Jumps Of inactive matter. But
they may be said TO be alive creatures
of vital pulsationS, and separated
into individuals as distinct as the pine,
in Il forest or the tigers in a Jungle.
The disposition of crystals are as d.
verse ms those Of animals. They throb
with unseen currents of energy. They
grow in size as long as they have op-
p%ortunity. They can be killed. too,
though not as easily as an oak or a
dog a strong electric shock dis
charged through . crystal will decom-
pose ii, very rapidly if it is of soft
structure, causing the particles to
gradually disintegrate in the reverse
order from its growth, until the poor
thing lies a dead, shapeIcss ruin. 1t is
true the crystals life is unlike that of
higher creatures; butt difference be-
tween vegetable and animal life is no
greater than that between mineral
ana vegetable life. LinuHus, the great
swedish naturalist, defined the three
kingdoms by saying: Stones GROW,
plants grow and feel; animals grow aud
lcel and move. - Hide Awake.
