One day a raw specimen was one of the

could be got in a foreign place. He was
not used to the American style of treating,
and when the proprietor passed box of
cigars to him he thanked him politely and
declined.

"Won't cost me Il penny" said the

"Not at all, mon. It's the custom of the
country"
"Weil, we'll, who'd THOUGHT it? This is
too much blindness"
And the big hand Of the stranger closed
around half Of the cigars in the box. As
the bunch went into his pocket a laugh
went up from the steamship officers. The
proprietor acknowledged that the joke was
on him, and the innocent stranger went

there is nothing in name, muscle reading

An intelligent comprehension of the sub

reading is just what the term implies. But
mind reading cannot be so fayorably con
sidered. 1t is species of trickery, in the
performance of which the ordinary com

from without or within. DR., Gregory

occasion gone to bed with Il bottle of hot
water at his feet lie dreamed of walking
up the crater of Mount IGtna and feeling
the ground warm under him He had at
an early period of his life visited Mount
Vesuyius and actually felt a strong sensa-
ton of warmth in his feet when walking
up the side of the crater, and he had more
recently read Brydone's description of
Mount dEtna,
On another occasion, having thrown off
the bcdclothes in his sleep he dreamed of
spending a winter at Hudson's bay aud of
suffering distress from the intense frost.
