Concerning Unconscious Cerebration.

Under the somewhat fanciful title,
1.-THE Antechamber of Consciousness,
Mr.. Francis Speir, Jr., contributes to The
Popular Science Monthly the result of
some carefully planned investigations in
psychology for the purpose of weighing
anew the argument for unconscious GER
ebration. He distributed printed ques-
tons. to be answered from personal ex-
perence. The question in which the in
quiry centered was: docs there exist in
man the power to exert intellectual ac-
tivity during unconsciousness2"
The answers are grouped and summar-
lied under four heads: (a) When the eff
fort is simple, by reproducing past ex-
periences in obedience to mandate of
the will, as in the familiar experience of
recalling a lost name or fact while con-
sciously devoting the attention to some
thing entirely different (b) by compar-
ing related facts and arriving at settled
judgment, as in the case of awaking
from a sound sleep at predetermined
hour; (c) when the effort is more COM
pick, by continuing old trains of thought
began in consciousness, and proceeding
logically, step by step, to relative set
tied conclusion, as in dreaming out the
solutions of problems in chess, mathe-
mates, etc., or in reaching the solutions
while working at something totally diff
ferent; Id when the effort is most COM
pick by commencing and continuing new
trains of thought without having volun-
tarily undertaken or continued them,
and arriving at results of original crea-
tons, as inventions, literary and musical
creations, etc. Of the first 81 per cent.
of those answering had had such expert
ences; of the second 40 per cent. claim
this power in a strongly marked degree;
about S5 per cent. claim the possession of
the power defined in "(c),' and about 80
per cent. claim the unconscious creative
power. Chicago News.

The Dial of the Face.
What's in a nose?


Shakespeare might better have pro-
pounded that question than the ore he
did, for nose is of infinitely greater i'm
portance than a name. Truly a rose by
any other name would smell as sweet,
but would beauty with any other nose
look as sweet2
Not much.
Add but trife to the end of your
nose and see what a change it makes.
Shave off but the thinnest slice from
either edge, and behold the altered APP
pearance. Flatten it with the slightest
pressure and watch the result. Twist it
to right or left the shadow of millionth
part of a degree and your handsome
mans beauty is forever destroyed. 1t
has been called, and rightly, too, the
rudder or the dial of the face. An au-
thority on physiognomy says IF the
beauty of the nose depends on its shape,
its power is regulated by its length,
which ought never to be less than one
third of the profile, measured from the
roots of the hair to the tips of the chin.
Should it exceed that proportion so much
the better, for we are assured that when
ever two persons, the one having large
nose and the other a small one, come
into collision, the latter must yield, UNI
less it is of the feminine gender and takes
an upward turn. Chicago Times.

Telegraphy by the Clouds.

A remarkable experiment in signaling
with electric lights was recently made
by the officers of two vessels of the Brit
ish navy, the Orion and the Espoir, off
the port of Singapore. The Espoir had
sailed from that port for Hong Kong,
leaving the Orion in the harbor of Singa-
pore. When the Espoir was sixty miles
distant the Orion sent her a message by
means of the electric light.
But can light be seen sixty miles at
sea1 Certainly not, in its direct rays;
but the Orion threw a brilliant blaze Of
light upon the clouds, and the reflection
of this light was distinctly seen on board
the Espoir. More than this, the Orion,
having thrown upon the clouds regular
message by means of successive flashes,
this message was read and understood on
board the Espoir. The question has been
asked whether this means Of communi-
cation might not be made Of practical
advantage. Youths Companion.

contemporaneously with the great soldiers

1t is scarcely possible in this brief space to
set forth the Methodist system of gov
eminent. Suffice it here to say that 1t
rests on the broad principle that no specific
form is commanded in the New Testament,
but that the church has Christian liberty to
adopt the form best suited to each country
or age, and that, developing on this principle,
the church may now be said to be in a trans-
ton state, from an extreme episcopacy to a
regular representative system. and as in
secular government there is always a small
party which far outruns the main body, and
another which insists on not moving at all,
so there are radical Methodsts" and PRO

conservatives who insist upon the exact letter
