severe scalp Disease Cured.

A few weeks ago my wife suffered very much
from a cutaneous disease of the scalp, and re-
ceived no relief from the various remedies she
us ed until she tried CUTICURA. The disease
promptly yielded to this treatment, and in a short
while she was entirely well. There has been no
return of the disease, and CUTIcURA ranks No.
in our estimation for diseases of the skin.

In addition to that chief remedial measure-the

TRANCE SENSATIONS.
The Feelings of Horror Experienced by
Seemingly Dead Girl.

The Feelings of Horror Experienced by q
Seemingly Dead Girl.
The sensations of a seemingly dead
| person, while confined in the coffin, are
mentioned in the following case of
trance: IA young lady, an attendant
on the Princess -, after having been
confined to her bed for great length
| of time with a violent nervous disor-
der, was at last, to all appearance, de-
prived of life. Her lips were quite
pale, her face resembled the counte-
nance of a dead person, and the body
grew cold. She was removed from
the room in which she died, was laid
in coffin, and the day Of her funeral
fixed on. The day arrived, and, ac-
cording to the custom of the country,
funeral songs and hymns were sung
before the door, just as the people
We're about to nail down the lid of the
coffin, a kind Of perspiration was OBJ
served to appear on the surface of her
body 1t grew greater every moment,
and at last a kind of convulsive motion
| was observed in the hands and feet of
the corpse. A few minutes after, dur
ing which fresh signs of returning life
appeared, she at once opened her eyes
and uttered a most pitiable shrek.
Physicians were quickly procured, and
in the course of a few days she was
considerably restored and is probably
alive at this day.
1.-THE description which she gave of
her situation is extremely remarkable.
and forms a curious and authentic adj
dition to psychology. She said itseemed
to her that she was really dead, yet she
was perfectly conscious of all that hap
pened around her in this dreadful state.
She distinctly heard her friends speak
ing and lamenting her death at the side
of her coffin. She felt them pull on the
dead-clothes and lay her in them This
feeling produced a mental anxiety
which is indessribable. She tried to
cry, but her soul was without power,
and could not act in her body. She
had the contradictory feeling as if she
were in the body and yet not in it, at
one and the same time. It was equally
impossible for her to stretch out her
arm. or to open her eyes, or to cry, al
though she continually endeavored to
do so. The internal anguish of her
mind was, however, at its utmost
height when the funeral hymns were
begun to be sang, and when the lid of
the coffin was about to be nailed down.
The thought that she was to be buried
alive was the one that gave activity to
her mind, and caused it to operate on
her corporeal frame. ~. 2. Ledger.

PLAYING SCHOOL,

Rat-tat! on the table, and school has begun
AS I'm the whole school, why, the class num-
bers one. ~
The teachers my own little grille of five,
And as busy is she as bee in hive.
My arms must be folded, and then I spell cat,
And other hard words that include rat and bat;
do quite impossible sums on the slate;
My name is put down then for coming in late.
For some fancied fault am semitic the wall
With an impatient gesture by this teacher
small,
And then I'm forgiven with smiles very sweet
good boy again. return to my seat.
I'm the most startling facts in geography told
Ihat Europe's in China, the torrid zones cold
I'm scolded, I'm given q "good" ticket there
And all with serious, occupied air.
Oh, sweet are the lessons learn every day
From this tiny teacher! No truant play,
AS I'm the whole class no rival dread:
stand at the foot, and likewise at the head.
But often she laughs in her innocent glee
The serious face Of her scholar to see
And then my wee teacher is caught up and
kissed,
And quite in disorder the school is dismissed.
