THE ELIXIR OF LIFE.
Successful Experiments with Doctor Brown
Sequard's Discovery.
IOudon Tela0ranh


Sequard's Discovery.
London Telegraph.
Despite the sarcasm, general and profess
siOnal, with which the recent experiments
made by M. Brown-Sequard were greeted.
there seems to be, after all. some efficacy in
the ugly elixir vitR invented by the aged
and respected psychologist. A young physi-
clan, DR.. Varlot. who has already been sue
cessful in removing tattoo marks from the
skins of several civilized savages, has been
induced to test the efficacy of NJ. Brown
Sequard's Life Mixture" He pestled to-
gether portions of the flesh tissues of rab-
bits and guinea pigs; diluted them with
water, and injected the compound thus OBJ
tanned into the bodies of three paupers,
aged respectively fifty-four, fifty-six and
sixty-eight. The men had never heard of
M. Brown-Sequards solution, and were
merely told that they were to
be injected with strengthening fluid. We
patients, who, before being subjected to
the wonderful remedy, were weak, worn,
emaciated and melancholy, suddenly be-
came strong, fresh and cheerful took new
yiews'of life, and altogether felt as if they
had received a new lease of existence. The
experiments failed. however, on two other
subjects, but the indefatigab1e M. Variot is
not to be defeated, and he intends to con-
tinue his trials, which, in time, will be
communicated in all their precision of
technical details to the Biological Society.

When Spenser had finished his famous

tron of the poets of that day. The manu-
script being sent up to the Earl, he read a
few pages. and then ordered his servant to
give the writer EGO. Reading on. he cried,

manuscript up in frenzied manner, he
cried: "Here, take him back his poem. 1
am too poor to buy it of him." 1t was for
this reason that Spenser never wrote any,
thing else so good as the "Faerie Queene."
