blessing that lives not only through this
life but throughout the ages OF eternity.

and one illustration was this When
his eleventh child, his little Fanny, was
taken away, friend came to see him in
his sorrow, and said, "Brother Bowman
have been praying for YOU ever since
L knew OF your great trouble"
As he clasped his hand the bishop
asked, Wont you please do 1t nowP"
And they knelt and the friend prayed,
and tho spiritual comfort that only God
can give came to hIs stricken heart.

And rs helooks back over all the years

Curious Mental Phenomena.

Under the above heading the current
number of The Revue Rose publishes an
interesting summary of an account re-
Gently communicated to the Societe de
Biologie by N. Fere, and in which are
embodied some of his experiences of the
effect of ether on persons at the point of
death. 1t is well known fact that the
dying are often able to see the principal
facts of their lives, which otherwise have
been forgotten for many years, clearly
and accurately before them. The reason
for this clairvoyance Mr.. Fere ascribes to
a sudden modification of the cerebral
circulation, which can also be brought
about by artificial means. Thus he tells
of a case Of a patient who was dying of
consumption. He had already lost con-
seriousness, when, having been revived
by two successive injections Of one
gramme Of ether, the dying man slowly
raised his head and rapidly pronounced
string of words, which no one near
him was able to understand, as they were
Flemish.
After some movements indicating i'm
pauence ne maze sign that ne wished
to write. A paper and pencil were then
handed to him, and he wrote rapidly
three or four lines, also in Flemish. This
man, who was native of Antwerp, had
lived in Paris for many years and never
wrote or spoke anything but French: but
when dying he seemed to be unable to
recollect that language. Afterwards 1t
was found that his pencil note asabout
debt of fifteen francs, which he had
borrowed from somebody at Brussels IN
1868 and which had never been paid.
In another case the patient was dying
of lung disease. He had tainted several
times and no longer replied to any ques-
tons put to him; his pulse was all gone,
but after an injection Of ether he turned
his head towards his wife, saying rapid
~: 'fYou will not find that pin, for all
the floor has been remade," which was
an allusion to an Incident of eighteen
years ago. After uttering these words
breathing ceased. Pail Mall Gazette.

A small, box like thing, with glass
sides that show the machinery inside, is
what the voter sees when he approaches
the opening to the little booth into which
each voter must enter to record his
choice. This booth is the same as those
used in the Australian system, and is
necessary to the secrecy Of the ballot
The voter approaches, lifts the lid of the
box. which act causes a bell to ring, and
finds himself In the presence of an ap-
paratus much like the finger board Of a
typewriter. There before him e'the
names of all the candidates, all those of
each political party being printed on pa
per Of one color. This is for the benefit
Of iliterate voters.
You press the buttons of your choice
and you have voted. The machine re-
cords accurately the number of the vote
and also records the whole number of
voters who have opened the machine.
Repeating is impossible. You may push
away at the button all day, and it will
Just as persistentiy keep on recording
the same number. Net until the cover
Of the box has been closed can another
number be recorded. If voter attempts
to close the cover and vote again the
bell rings and properly consigns him TO
the porridge.
When the polls are closed the face OF
the machine shows the total number Of
voters who have cast their ballots. On
lock the machine and the papers inside
show just the number of votes for each
candidate. The judges verify the num-
bers, add their signatures, inclose the
papers in "a scaled envelope and go home
to supper and to repose; or they may
hasten to the telegraph Office to hear the
returns from other precincts. Before 8
o'clock the result of the election is known
TO every one, and all may go to bed when
they please.-St Paul.Globe.
