The Story of Broken Life.

often think of the old farm. The
old red house with the wide porch
half hid by the climbing vines. From
the harvest field Of gold you could
mark the orchard, green-leaved in the
promise of the bright midsummer
There was a gay, sunny-haired lad I
loved. His innocent eyes of blue
frightened the old farm. His cherry
whistle on the hill was echoed back by
the echoes, gay as he, deep in the hol-
lows.
Then came a change for me, and l
drifted through various grades of life,
the details of which need not be dwelt
upon, and at last l found myself, with
others of my kind, in place hated.
Bright lamps shone, and laughter
rang all through the heated night.
But it was not the merry laugh of in
nocence l had known in other days.
With sickening heart / gazed upon
the scenes of unhallowed plot and
mirth. l knew the fate in store for
me. When my beauty was gone and
my usefulness ended l, too, should go
the way of my companions. Used as
an end of mans pleasure, and then
an outcast in the street. And yet l
was reckless and cared not. 1t was
my destiny. There is no turn back
for creatures such as l.
One night, among the others who
came to that haunt of sin, was the
bright-haired boy 1 had loved. He
knew me not. He had forgotten the
day when in the harvest he
had passed me with a smile and
caressed me with his hand.
How changed he was. He had
grown young man now; yet he wai
still the boy l had loved. His eye
were glazed with wine. His sunny
curls were all unkept and hot flusl

Singular Diseases.

Among lne most singular diseases
which have been developed in modern
times is that of aphasia, in which the
patient loses the memory of certain
words, or rather the power to attach
the proper word to an idea.
A victim of this disease recently lost
the ability to pronounce any word but
"Yes," while his brain was as active
and clear as before. lie would read
the morning paper, and proceed to
make lively comments on the news to
his family; all of which consisted of
the single word "Yes," uttered with
every variety of infection. He, mean
while, was totally unaware that he
was not speaking with all his wonted
fluency and force. A cure was eff
fected in this case, and the mind of
the patient was found to be clear and
untouched by strange ailment.
Another remarkable disease is noted
by an American specialist in cerebral
affections, and also by famous Span
ish physician, Armancue Y Tuset.
Miriatchit is a disease which origina-
ted among the prisoners of Eastern
Siberia.
The patient is irresistibly impelled
to initiate the words spoken by his
companion; he can, in fact, make no
other sounds than those which he
hears. This disease is chronic and
contagious, and is accompanied by
fever, great dilation of the pupils Of
the eyes, and incessant laughter, and
leaves the patient exhausted; the
events of time in which has been af-
fected being an utter blank to him.
After the attack is past, the patient
RECEIVERS his full strength of mind, and
loses tho inclination to initiate like
hooking bird.
Now, the story of these strange dis
eases Expresses us like a nightmare
horror. But is there no more COM
monplace mental ailment which has in
it even deeper loss and tragedy? A
young man, for example, gives him
self up to money-making, or a lady
to the pursuit of fashion, for years,
with the result that they forget, not
spoken words, like the victim of apha-
sian, but ideas, principles and feelings.
| The soul, dwarfed and shrunken,
knows nothing of the wide, noble life
once possible to it, but goes about
like an imbecile, crying out, "Dress
dress !" or Money! money!
Or, the lad or girl, just setting out
in life, afraid to act from the law of
commOn-sense and conscience within,
becomes a silly imitator Of Pth"~ tnd
receives from some o9& &c or
she regards IS gSeer, itleas of
duty, or manners, even of religion.
These weak creatures do not, like the
Siberian miriatsha, echo the words
only of their companions, but their
thoughts and actions, and so become,
in brain and soul, base copies of poor
originals.
When these singular neural diseases
are cured, the brain, we are told, is
unimpaired. But for the commoner
ailments we have described, there is
no cure. They attack the soul itself,
the seat of life. Their work is not
for this world only, but for eternity.

NO RAILROAD FENCE BILL.
The Railroad Fence bill seems to
have received its quietus. In the
Senate on the day of its adjournment
before taking the recess, Senator Lo-
gan, of Crawford, made an Intellectual
effort to have placed on the calendar
the bill offered by himself in the Sen
ate and similar bill by Representa-
tive Burk, of Lackawanna, in the
House, in so far as it related to Craw-
ford county. He received the solid
Democratic support of the Senate,
and also the Republican assistance of
Senators Finn and Neeb, of Allegha-
ny, for which they were dubbed by
Senator Grady, of Philadelphia, of
trading with the Democrats. There
is no more narrow-minded or conceited
member of the Legislature than this
man Grady, who is constantly on the
look ont for A No !. He is on the
Investigating Committee of the frauds
perpetrated in the Soldiers Orphans
Schools, and if there is a white wash
ing report, which some people think
there will be, of the dastardly conduct
of the Syndicate, you can rest assured
he will be at the bottom of it.

bulled to fictitious value and which you
hope to be able to unload on someone
else at an enormous advance? In each
instance it Is purely game of chance
for all save those who are within the
Wall street ring, who control sufficient
money and stocks to dictate the course
Of the same and to whom there is no
risk. The Louisiana lottery is positive
evil, cancerous sore on the body polite.
But Wall street is far greater evil; it Is
a cancer whose roots have already fas-
tened upon the vltals of our political
revolution of the great earnest, masses Of
our people. The pulpit Is abashed In It's
presence because so many lead
ing lights and pillars in each wealthy
congregation are connected with the
street." which is the polite way Of
designating gamblers" who delve In
stock speculation. The press, with hon
orable and noble exceptions, wink at this
great plague spot while loudly crying
for laws to correct comparatively harm
less evils. The political parties depend
too much upon the kings of the "street,"
two colossal curses, cast their swart and
portentous shadow over the palaces and
novels Of great nation, yet by virtue Of
their power, the church and state, the
clergy and the politicians remain silent
or temporize in their presence. The re-
public needs to-day, as never before, true
men in every official station-men who
are clean, conscientious, frank, and up
right; men who, while strictly honorable
and pure in life and action, are also
broad minded, tolerant and large Drained;
men unswsyed by partisanship or blgotry;
statesmen rather than politicians; and,
above all, men that are In no wise tainted
with PhRrlsaism.
