AMPUTATED LIMBS.

Extract from n Lecture by DIR. j. III. KeI-
logg, of the Battle Creek sanitarium.
The philos ophy of the peculiar phe-
nomenon by which a person who has
lost limb is conscious of its presence
as still a part of himself, and which
causes him to complain of pain in it or
even to attempt to use it, is not gen.
orally unders TODD by people and yet it
is simple enough. A man whose arm
was ,cut off day or two ago says, II
can feel my arm the same as if it had
not been cut off and wouldn't know
it was gone without looking at the
stump" The brain is conscious of the
various parts of the arm and hand
simply because it sends down nerves
into those parts, a nd after amputation
they report as before. In case of an
amputa ton, all the nerves of the arm,
even to the ends of the fingers, are in
the stump and when q nerve which
goes to a finger is irritated in the stump,
it says finger" to the brain, because it
cannot say anythin & else and other
nerves will say just w hat they have been
accustomed to sa ying while the arm was
entire. Suppose you put your thumb just
back of the little prominence of the
elbow, and press down upon it-you
will feel n numb S ensation clear to the
end of your finger. You have not
touched the finger and yet the nerve re.
ports to the brain that something is the
matter with it. Sometimes the muscles
which close the hand are i1ritated and
the individual imagines that his hand
is shutting up. Instances have been
frequently known where patients have
insisted that the h and or leg which had
been taken off should be unburied and
its position changed. The nerves con.
tinue to report the sensations which
they last experienced. However, this
state of things does not last very long,
The nerves which went to the parts re.
moved are gradually absorbed, and
while this is taking place the sensations
which they produce as gradually
shorten. While the loss of an arm Is
fresh, the individual is still conscious OF
the tips of his fingers; but by and by
the sensations only extend to the palm
of his hand and so keep on shortening,
until he finally feels the stump lust as
it is, and this occurs usually in the
course of six months-Reported bv
Helen L.. Manning.

of which have peculiar value because
of their age and their use as prayer

rugs. Here repouSse brass work of all
styles. Here beautiful tables of inlaid
pearl, yonder all kinds of bric-a-brac;
further, embroidered silks for all pur-
poses. All trades are carried on in
these little cells; the turner sits at his
bench holding his chisel in his toes; the
weaver drives his shuttle, the confec-
aioner boils his sirups, the coppersmith
deafens YOU with his din, the grocer
squats in the midst of his spices, the
dry goods merchant seems packed in
with his dress goods. Try your hand at
bargaining. What is the price of this
dagger? Fifteen francs. You object.
He insists. You persist that it is too
dear. He swears by Allah that it will
ruin him to take less. Back and forth
goes the chatter. The outcome is that
we buy the dagger for two francs and a
half, or fifty cents, instead of three dol
lars. You learn after awhile that
every merchant has his first price and
his last price. He gives his first price
from 10 to 15 times higher than the last
price. This is the method in all the
bazars. 1t is perfectly ridiculous. He
will get out of you all he can.
The garbs, the streets, the scenes are
full of rare interest. Mohammedan
women with yelled faces and high
heeled shoes waddle past. Those men
with turbans and fur-lined cloaks have
been to Mecca, the fur lining indicates
that. Here is Bedawy just from the
desert, in his abbdh and kufyeh. Yon-

booth and everyone gives him some
thing. Another dervish clad in sheep
skin and holding in his hand live
snake, shouting as he moves along,
passes about as a man entitled to con-
sideration. The snake holds piece of
bread in his mouth. Everyone throws
something into the dervish's tankard.
The vender of refreshments plies his
trade in the streets carrying a two
handled wide jar, with a narrow neck,
or vessel made of glass, on his back.
In his hands he holds brazen cups

When anyone is desirous of doing a
charitable deed he pays for the contents

After the Ave minutes hnd passed the
with his hat upon his head. There vas
a trace of sadness about his eyes anda
teardrop or two glistened upon his
beard. Reaching out his hands he
said: E e
''put on tho irons, Harley. I could
have made fight for IL; but didn't
feel like shedding blood-and Allie, my
baby, so sick" Q @
The irons were placed upon the mans
wrists, and he was led away from all
that he held dear in this life. Led
away to prison, taken to place that
was almost like death to this man, who,
though a lawbrealer, left his heart in
the little cabin Of the mountain side.
Ah how long the days seemed to
him, and how long the silent hours of
the night dragged on.
Ten days passed, and Eli Bargy had
heard no word from his sick baby and
distressed wife. How vividly his home
came up before him as he tossed upon
his prison bed. How cruelty he had
wronged his good little wife by placing
her in such trying situation. All! if
he had only stuck to what was lawful;
but it was too late now-too late.
In two days time he would be tried.
Two days only! What might they not
bring forth?
1t was night, tho tenth night he had
spent behind the doors of the prison 1t
! was to him like ten years.
The rain fell upon the uplifted face
of the moonshiner as he pressed his
forehead against the bars and looked
out upon the night. There was not a
thing without that was not free. The

Little woman, rest easy; she'll get we'll.
Now am ready, Harley"
The moonshiner came forward and
Tsaehed ont his hands; but, oh! there
war such sorrow in the depths of his
eyss, such unspeakable misery in the
tones of his voice, that the officer said,
IS he concealed his weapons
II understand the case, Eli I am
human, hope. I'll go outside with the
MEN and give you five minutes alone
With your wife and child"
THANK you. Harley; you need not
drar, for you can trust me. You are a
Aqssre man"
Harley closed the door as he went
ont; he told his men the situation. A
,rpaple of them said that it was foolish
in him to trust moonshiner; but the
s%1t agreed that their leader had done

The Shouting Dcrvishes,
Especial Damascus (syria) letter.


Damascus is praised by the Arab
poets as the pearl of the Orient" 1.-THE
feather from the bird of paradise"
1.-THE necklace of beauty" "The eye of
the Orient" No wonder such lavish
praise is bestowed, for the city is, COM
pared with the great Syrian desert, a
paradise indeed. A most delightful
surprise is it to the traveller to find
right up against the broad, Juninterest-
ing plain to the west or the desert on
the east region of swiftly rushing
streams and sparkling fountains, where
luxuriant foliage and fragrant flowers
delight the eye and charm the senses.
Riding into the city one Immediately
meets the limpid streams of the Barada,
the ancient Abana. Rising on the
slopes Of Anti-Lebanon it divides at
Damascus into seven branches, two Of
which supply the fountains of the city
and five irrlgate the gardens. You ride
between mud walls for some distance
with gardens on each side, where the
walnut tree, the apricot tree, the pome-
granate, the lemon, the jasmine abound.
At length the city, with its mosques
and bazars, is reached, and the wonder
full panorama of Oriental life
lies before you. Remember,
here Is a city whose continuous
life goes clear back to the time of
the old Pharoahs. Athens, Rome, are
young compared with Damascus. 1t
was the Eye of the Orient" far beyond
the times of Abraham. To this point
Abraham and his trained servants
chased the marauding chieftains who
captured his nephew Lot. From Da-
mascus came the bands who were accus-
toned to pounce upon the fertile valleys
of Israel. Here came David, the warrior,
conquering the city and establishing a
garrison. In Christian history the city is
memorable-along the very road we
travelled few days ago, the proud
Pharisee was unhorsed, falling to the
ground as the light of Heaven shone
about him and the voice sounded in his
ears: saul, Saul, why persecutest thou
Me?" A fragment of the old wall still
remains from which the now converted
and Jealous Paul was let down in a
basket.

moved in body further up the noun

spoke the man who stood just inside
the doorway, revolver in each hand.
Eyes, know, Harley. I'll go with
