THE MAN WITH A GLASS HAND.
SonN of the Peculiar Beliefs of

Physicians with large practices are con-

women who have strange hallucinations
and delusions. In the majority OF cases
the sufferers imagine that something i'm
possible has happened to them. and they
worry themselves sick over an imaginary
disease or comical hallucination.

Ho is constantly In fear that II will be

In q thick case made OF Russia leather.
He is a retired merchant who has large
fortune and no business cares, or else his
Portable than II Is.
" The care that he takes OF his glass
hand is remarkable. He allows no one to
approach him on his left side IL he can
possibly help IL, as he Is afraid that when
the hand Is broken he will die. ! have
argued with him by the hour on the fool

Doctor he sometimes says to me, 4
have all my senses as perfect as yours.
Now, why do you tell me It Is not glass2
! can see 1t is, can feel 1t and / can see

The physician said that this gentleman
had consulted several European special
lists, without obtaining relief. The case
Is a well known one. all OF the leading doc
tors having heard OF the man with the
glass hand.
The owner OF the hand looks after his
own extensive business affairs. and Is
said to be cultured gentleman with only
one idiosyDcrasy.

him OF the habit have proved futile.

Growing Hens to Sell Alive.

1t undoubtedly costs more in some
localities than in others to bring hens
to the proper age for egg production.
1t does not follow, however, that 1t
will pay poultry fanciers to stock up
exclusively with bought hens. The
rule OF selling the poorest and keeping
the best prevails more among breeders
OF poultry than among the other class
OF farmers. What young pullets are
offered in the market are usually very
uncertain layers. PROBABLY the change
from a former home TO another pre-
vents them from laying as many eggs
as they otherwise would. 1t is, there
fore, economy for beginners with
poultry to commence with few set
tings OF eggs, and grow their own hens.
