SPECIAL FEATURES
OF THE CINCINNATI CENTENNIAL Ex-
POSITION, NOW IN FULL BLAST.

Novelties, Attractions aud Curiositics
Never Before Collected Together-one
of the Most Complete Museums in the
world.
The Cincinnati Centennial is 80 large
and of such varied character, COM
posed as it is of articles quaint, inge-
NOUS, n)vel end intricate, from all parts
of the country, and from every sort of
industry, that it would be impossible TO
give anything like an adequate idea of It,
SO the only way left is to tell the reader
OF a few of the most interesting, leaving
Il to his Imagination to picture what the
immense buildings look like when viewed
as whole.
Among the things that attract q good
deal of attention is wonderfully realis
tic scene of pioneer life on a farm. 1t
occupies space of about four hundred
feet. In one corner is log-cabin, sur
rounded by stake and-rider fence. The
lady of the house is hanging out her
washing, and nearby is small boy, en-
joying himself in sport. In front of the
door hangs a soap-kettle, suspended
from poles, and beneath IL burns q fire
(gas), which boils the soap. There is a
man plowing in the field; others ere
mauling rails; lusty fellows are putting
up log-cabin and nearby is camp of
emigrants for whom the cabin is being
built; well with real water-wheel
stands on the bank Of the river, which
winds around the fence, and in this
stream colored man is fishing; several
"prairie schoonersh come numbering
down the road. In short, there is Moth
ing left out of the picture that would add
to its naturalness. 1t Is indeed pho
tograph, rs it were, of the scenes en-
acted by our forefathers u century ago.
The art gallery is the most valuable
ever collected in this country, md is
estimated to be worth ?T00,000. The in

The Reason Why

Ayers Pills are SO popular is, that
while always reliable as q cathartic
medicine, they never leave any ill
effects. This is because they are purely
vegetable, and entirely free from Gallo
mel or any other dangerous drug. In
all cases, therefore, whether the patient
be old or young, they may be conf
IDENTIFY administered.
In the Southern and Western States,
where arrangements of the liver are so
general, Ayers Pills have proved an in
estimable blessing. d. w. Baine, New
Berne, N. c., writes:

edies, but received no benefit until ]

NAVAL OBSERVATORY EXHIBIT.
IN examining the many curious articles
entering into the makeup of this part of
Uncle Sans display, one will see illus
trations of all the principle instruments
connected with observatory work, Here
are equatorial telescopes, transit instru-
ments, u -heliograph especially de-
signed and used Tor observations of the
transit of Vcnus), and ali the necessary
clocks, chronographs and electrical ap-
pliances. You viii also observe the
workings of the new Government time
service, that supplies the correct time
from Washington TO 20, 900 miles of rail-
road, directly, and thousands Of uddi-
tional miles indirectly. 1t is so ar
ranged ut the Centennial buildings that
ball drops daily as noon on time sig
mai given out at Washington, which for
Cincinnati. central time, is just IL
o'clocl; n. m. On the wall near by are
five clocks illustrating the five arbitrary
standards Of time, and all these are COR
rected daily by the noon-time signal.
Near the fountain, in the center of the
main Exhibition Hall, over one of the
bridges on the canal, in Machinery Hall,
and in the Ohio State Exhibit, are gongs
which are struck by this same Washing
ton signal.
In another portion of tine display can
be seen portable magnetic instrumen rs
which are used in surveys, and which
were used by General Greeley in his ia
nous Arctic explorations. Suspended
also from the walls can be seen large
maps illustrating the distribution of
time, photographs of the moon, Venus
and other heavenly bodies, and instru-
ments showing their uses in astronomi-
cal work. Taken from the photographic
Office in the Capital and placed in this
display one may find the instruments
used in surveying, and for deep-sea
sounding, with photographs illustrating
how the different apparatus are used.
Also rough and finished charts and mod
els showing che confirmation of the
ear sh's surface, and also the bottom of
the sea. To the scientist this magniti-
cent exhibit will be found wonderfully.

MEDICINE FOR THE IMAGINATION.

| How Paralysis May be Cured-A HyPnO-
tized Suhject-I'araplcgia.
We must be permitted to dwell for "A mo-
ment on this medicine for the Imagination,
which is entitled to the name of suggestive
| therapeutics The process is as follows: In
| fluenced by persistent idea, suggested by
| external circumstances, n paralysis is devel-
| oped The physician makes use of his au-
| thority to suggest the idea of an inevitable,
| incontestable cure, and the paralysis is cured
| accordingly. This cure as well as the devol-
| opment of functional disturbance, was di-
| rectly effected by an idea An idea may,
therefore, be, according to circumstances, a
pathogenic and therapeutic agent. This
notion is not new, but since it was misinter-
preted, it mas remained unfruitful.
The most Important of the organic disturb
ances produced by an idea is an experiment
on vesication, performed by Focachun, "a
chemist at Charmes. He applied some post
age stamps to the left shouler of a hypno-
tized subject, keeping them in their place
with some strips of diachylon and com
press; at the same time he suggested to the
subject that he had applied blister. The
subject was watched, and when twenty hours
had elapsed the dressing, which had re
manned untouched, was removed, Tho epi-
dermis to which it had been applied was
thickened and dead and of yellowish- white
color, and this region of tho skin was puffy
and surrounded by an intensely red zone
1t was in 1869 that Russell REYNOLDS first
noted the existence of motor and sensory
disturbances, developed under the influence
of an idea. The motor disturbance some
times consists i'll spasms, in ataxic or inco-
ordinated movements, and more frequently
in paralysis which affects the upper limbs
Erb gives to these symptoms the name OF
