We are passing Just now, according to
pr Richardson. through one of those men
tai epidemics which are closely akin to
those which are purely physical. He calls
i the epidemic of hypnotism. Ma
poleon I. it is observed. on his return
from Eliza, literally hypnotized and gov
erued bv soldierly suggestions, not one
man. hut thousands. not women and weak
men. but soldiers yho on the field of bat
tie would know no fear. The same kind
of power. Dr. Richardson assures us. has
been and can at times be exercised in
medical practice Under it physical pain
can be abolished for time and the will of
the subject be led into obedience. and even
into deferred obedience. under the infu-
ence of the commanding will. This nat
urallv suggests the question:
will hypnotiSm eventually supersede
ether and chloroform Or. Richardson
is of the opinion, that it will never become
a serious rival of physical anRstketic,
local or general, produced by volatile sub
stance. Limited at this moment to the
few who are susceptible to it, hypnotism
must become still more limited as enlight-
eminent goes on. As a I ethod for pro-
ducing oblivion from pain ne expects TO
find it further limited il application to
short seasons of special. social or meteoro-
logical cast: and if it falls the influence Of
suggestion will fall with it.

must carry out his plan of crossing or die
on the way. obServant readers. says the
Hartford Courant. recognized the sort of a
man who, if he lived through that exper-
fence, would do more Arctic exploring.
As We all know. he did live. and has since
been brooding another journey into the
unknown. Ii has formulated in his mind,
and tie preparations are we'll under way
What he now proposes Is to visit the north
pole
Of course at this late day no one talks of
that journey without full knowledge of
the lives lost and hardShipS endured by
former explorers, and an equal knowledge
of the boundaries that have proved inn
penatrabie-some approaching nearer than
than others, and many being turned back
at nearly the same latitude Equally of
course a new candidate must have a new
idea of how TO approach the pole, DR..
NanSen 5 comes from a study &C ocean cur
rents. He points out that in going up
west from Greenland explorers meet ice
coming down. There is a strong Southerly
current here and another TO the east of
Greenland. where also several attempts TO
work far north have been made; and an
other adverse current Is encountered
north Of Spltzbergen, route which has
also been attempted. These three compose
the lines of attack that have usually been
followed by northern explorers. Now Dr.
NanSen very reasonably says that water
must go north somewhere if all these cur
rents are setting south, and he finds rea-
sons both general and specific for believ-
ing that it flows through Behring sea. 1t
was here that the Jeanette entered in 1879.
She was shut in and drifted in north
easterly direction for two years when she
sank. Two years later belongings to some
of her crew drifted ashore on the south
west coast of Greenland. and what is
known of the currents makes it almost inn
possible that they should have come by any
route except through the unknown region
about the north pole. With this and other
things in mind, DIR. NanSen has decided
to make his ATTEMPT via that line. carry
provisions for five years, abandon his YES
sci to the movement Of the ice, and see
what comes of it.
The plan is simple and heroic 1t means
a chance of a great success or everlasting
night for NanSen. No one knows it bet
ter, but when the madness of Arctic ex-
ptoration is in the blood, the man must
work out his fate.

How to Cool "a Cellar.

A great mistake is sometimes made in
ventllating cellars and milk houses The
object of ventilation is to keep the cellars
cool and dry, but this object often fails of
being accomplished by common mistake.
and instead the cellar is made both warm
and damp. \ cool place shonld never be
ventilated, unless the air admitted is cool
er than the air within. or Is at least as
cool as that or very little warmer The
warmer the air the more moisture it holds
in suspension. Necessarily. the cooler the
air the more this moisture is condensed
and preclpltated. When a cool cellar is
aired on warm day, the entering air be-
ing IN motion appears cool. but as 1t fills the
cellar the cooler air with which it becomes
mixed chills it. the moisture is condensed
and dew Is deposited on the cold walls
and may often be seen running down
them in streams. Then the cellar is damp
and soon becomes moldy. To avoid this
the window should only be opened at
night, and late, the last thing before re-
firing. There Is no need to fear that the
night air is unhealthful; it is as pure as
the air of midday, and is really drier.
The cool air enters the apartment during
the night and circulates through it. The
windows should be closed before sunrise
in the morning, and kept closed and shad-
ed through the day If the air of the eel
lar Is damp, it may be thoroughly dried
by placing in it a peck of fresh lime in an
open box. A peck of lime will absorb
about seven pounds. or more than three
quarts of water. and in this wav cellar
or milk room may soon be dried, even In
the hottest weather.

THE SENTENCE OF JESUS. -
The Most Memorable judicial Utterance
Ever Pronounced.

Ever Pronounced.
The following Is a strict transcript of
the most memorable judicial sentence
which has ever been uttered by human
lips in the annals of the world This
curious document was discovered in A. d.
1890, in the city of Anquill in the kingdom
of Naples, in the course of a search made
for the discovery of Roman Antiquities,
and it remained there until it was found
by the commisSaries of art in the French
army of Italy. Up to the time of the
campaign in southern Italy it was preServ-
ed in the Sacristy of the CarthuSians near
Naples, where it was kept in a box of
ebony. Since then the relic has been kept
in the Chapelo Caserta. The CarthusianS
obtained 10y petition leave that the plate
might be kept by them as an acknowledge
ment of the sacrifices they had made for
the French army. The French translation
was made literally by members of the COM
mission of art. Demon had facsimile of
the plate engraved, which was bought by
Lord Howard on the sale of his cabinet for
,. $3.50 francs.
There seems to be no historical doubt,
says sthe kolnische Zeitung, as to the
authenticity Of this document, and it is
obvious to remark that the reasons of the
sentence correspond exactly with those
recorded in thegospel The sentence it.

the seventeenth year of the reign of the
Emperor Tiberious, and on the 25th of
March, in the most holy city of Jerusrlem,

third, he is an enemy to the laws; fourth,

calls himself falsely the king of Israel;
sixth, he went to the temple followed by
multitude carrying palms in their hands
1t likewise orders the first centurion,
QuiriIius Cornelius, to bring him to the
place of execution, and forbids all persons,
rich CT poor, to prevent the execution of
Jesus. The witnesses who have signed
the execution against Jesus are: First,

THE COST OF CROPS.
How a Farmer May Determine 1t.

Many farmers object to determining the
cost Of crops because the process Of infOr-
nation is too long continued it begins
with the preparation of the land and goes
on until harvesting Is over This is Of course
an objection. but not a valid one To de-
termlne the cost Of any farm product. says
the Southern CUltIvatOr, 1t Is only neces-
sary to keep regular books against the
fields, as to manure and labor expended in
the preparation and cultivation Of land and
the gathering and marketing of crops.
This is not more tedious nor more objec-
ton able than accounts kept against arti-
cles furnished hired help on farms The
facts, to be accurate, must be
DETERMINED BY THE INDIVIDUAL FAR
MER.
No one farmer can settle the cost for any
other farmer. There are many elements
that enter into the cost of farm products
and possibly all of them vary in every in
dividual instance. One man cuitiyates
much more intelligently and economically
than another One man methods. ma
nures, stock. food and help come TO him
much more cheaply than another's. One
man 5 farm may be much better adapted to
certain crops than that of another. The
seasons upon Two farms are not expected
to be uniform In their benefits. however
nearly adjacent the farms, as they do not
always find the same crops In the same
condition. For these reasons. together
with many Others. it Is plain to be seen
that each farmer must determine for him
self the cost of his products. What we
greatly need upon our farms Is the same
business methods that are used in every
other enterprise system as will let
Us know. all the time, what we are doing
and what We ought to do land ought not
70 do Anything short Of this brings Us
to haphazard life that takes its chances
for many evils.
