Cabby Found Asleep.

A somnolent cabman was enjoying =
comfortable nap on his box, in the Rue
de Metz when an enterprising person
came along, cut the reins, embarrassed
the steed Of the sleeping Jehu, mounted
the animal and tried to gallop it VI
the Faubourg Saint Martin. The nag,
however, was almost as sleepy as its
master, and refused to proceed at a
pace fast enough to enable the street
brigand TO get away.

was ultimately conducted to a police

horse play was, however, neither rel.

THE RECORD IN The Brain.
Extraordinary Instances. of Word blind

ness and Word Deafness.
All persons are consciously and I'M
consciously molding in their brain
cells records iunumerable. Things
that we reck not of leave their impress
there; stamp comes upon stamp like
the various writings in an old palimp
sest, in which the lower writings seem
entirely obliterated until they are re-
yealed by the processes of the anti.
quarian. So when the vision of the
higher centers is sharpest it can SEQ
through the maze, and it may in a
moment decipher the records of a life
Gmei or when the restraining inHu-
ence of the higher centers has been re
moved during delirious unconscious
ness, muttered words, broken son
tencs, or clearly spoken periods, and
mayhap even acts, give to b~ystanders
glimpses Of the passing visions.
When we are trying to recollect u
thing, we are simply searching here
and there among the records in the
brain TO see if by chance we can find
the leaf that we want to read. What
an index catalogue is to the searchers
hh a NAaI " tic oGuIthtT Ol
brain records are the laws of associa-
ton; and precisely as a purely alpha
betical or arbitrary catalogue may as
sist the student so may an artificial
system of mnemonics assist the brain
deliver. The separateness Of memory
and consciousness is also illustrated
by some Of the extraordinary phenom
ems which are connected with the SC
called local memories.
Among the local or isolated mem
cries the most distinct and sharply cut
Is the memory for words. The forms
Of aphasia known as word blindness
and word deafness are very strange.
The sufferer from word blindness can
write and will understand what is said
10 him; he will talk to you and per
haPs talk you 10 death; but hand him
a book, a newspaper, or even the let
ter he himself has written. and he can-
not read a word.
Thus an active man of business hav-
ing written a letter, giving directions
for an important matter, attempted to
read il in order to see if il was correct,
but vas %astounded TO find that he
could not make out a single word he
had BEEN suddenly stricken with word
blindness. The sounds of the words
and the words themselves had re-
manned 10 him, but the recollection of
the written forms of the words was
gone.
In a case Of word deafness the per.
son can talk and can write, but, al
though his hearing is perfect, he can
not recognize the spoken words. The
sound Of the voice is plain to his sense,
but conveys no thought to him. DIR.

A Ministerial Statement Regarding the
Manufacture Of Lymph.

BERLIN, Nov. 29.-In the Diet to-day
Minister Won Gossler, replying to interpret
lations, said the aspersiOns cast upon Ger
tain physicians engaged in using lymph
were groundless. Care was taken, he said
to make the remedy perfectly accessible to
the poor. In the course of time the prepara-
alton of lymph would be entrusted to compe-
tent persons employed by the State. There
was no good ground yet to hope the remedy
would be found efficacious in the treatment
of other diseases than tuberculosis. A
private gentleman had given ,000, 900 marks
TO be used for the benefit of DOOR persons
suffering from tuberculosis. Regarding the
question of placing the Manufacture of lymph
under the exclusive control of the State
Won Gossler thought feeling OF satisfaction
would be experienced throughout the world if
Prussia should set her stamp upon lymph.
The Government would eventually invite
other nations to send representatives to
study the use of the remedy in order that
they might apply it in their own countries.
ms ministerial statement, indicating, as 1t
does, the Intended prolonged guarding of
foreign medical men here.
Since the Parnell developments have
shattered Gladstone's chances of a return to
power report is current here that Lord
Salisbury will come to Berlin on a visit.
This is believed to imply meeting between
Caprivi, Kalnoky, Crispi and Salisbury, and
the more open adhesion by the English Gov
ernment TO the policy of the Dreibund The
extinction of Gladstone is the most grateful
news that Emperor William. and his circle
have ever heard from England.
