WAS MADE INSANE.
Tho Disastrous Effects of Hypnotism on
a Young Girl.

Tho Disastrous Effects of uypnotism on
Young Girl.
One of the most striking warnings on
record against the use of hypnotic ex-
periments is the story of lima Szandor,
which DIR. Won Kraft Ebing has given
at length in small volume, says the
Boston Transcript. This young girl,
Hungarian by birth, was of hysterical
constitution and proved extraordinarily
susceptible to hypnotic suggestion.
She fell into the hands of persons
whose ill-judged zeal and curiosity car
ried them to lengths which seem almost
incredible, and her life was ruined by
cruel and senselcss experiments. She
was hypnotized several times day for
some months, apparently by anyone
who chose to practice upon her, and
was made the victim of very painful
and distressing suggestions.
For instance, a pair of scissors was
on one occasion laid on her bare arm
and she was told that they were red-hot
and would burn her. All the effects of
severe burn were brought about by
this suggestion; an infamed and blis-
tered spot, taking the shape of the scis-
sors, appeared on her arm and took
months to heal. The unhappy girl at
last became insane.

A Big Telegraph Odce,

The biggest telegraph Office in the
world is that of London. 1t is located
in the general postoffice building and is
not accessible to the general public. Il
contains more than three thousand op-
orators and Its batteries are supplied by
a plant of thirty thousand cells. This
Office does more business than any
Office in the United States. 1t dis
patches its business much quicker and
more quietly than our offices do, and it's
main operating-room is not half 80
noisy as the main office of the Western
Union company In New York. OF
these three thousand operators about
one thousand are women. They have a
room to themselves, and they do their
work with American Morse instru-
ments, with registers and paper reels.
In the big telegraph operiting-room Of
Paris one Thousand operators are aS
work. Nearly one-haf OF these are
women. The day operators work only
seven hours, while the night operators
work ten. The former receive about
one dollar per day and the latter one
dollar and thirty-five cents.

A PRUDENT DOG.

He Takes Care of the Family Wash Dur
ing a Windstorin.
Bruce was farmers dog--a large
bulldog well along in years-and kept
for the good he had done rather than
for what was expected of him in the
future, says the New York Advertiser.
But the following incident, related by
a son of Bruce's owner, shows that he
was not past usefulness:
One morning in the early winter the
farmers good wife awolse to hear the
wind bowling terribly and to see the
snow flying all about the house. It
was but the work of moment to run
to the window, and we think all good
housewives will sympathize with the
poor woman when we say that of all
the clothes she had left on the line the
day before not an article was in sight!
We will not attempt to picture her con-
sternation, but we will say that the old
farmer himself was soon out in the
snow, taking some steps that are not
laid down in the book. While jealous
ly engaged in this snow searching
whine from Bruce drew his attention.
AS this was something unusual, he
hastened to where the dog was lying in
the snow and there found the missing
clothes! AS they had been blown from
the llne-it was so high that he could
not reach them-the dog had collected
them, not missing single piece, and,
using them as bed, had prevented
further fight.

THE VESTIBULE TRAIN.
An Arrangement Which Saves the Health
of tho Railroad Conductor.

An Arrangement Which Saves the Health
of tho Railroad Conductor.
Much has been said about the adj
vantages and comforts of the magnifi-
cent vestibule trains that run over the
great railroads of this land. A new idea
was advanced by a veteran railroad
man, who is posted on all matters con-
nected with railroad affairs.
''The vestibule train is a great ad-
vantage" said he, ito the railroad con-
ductor."
1t has always been noticed, says the
New York Mail and Express, that con-
ductors become sooner or later afflicted
with liver trouble, and consequently
kidney disease. This was largely due
to the fact that they were compelled
continually to pass through their long
trains in the line of their duties. They
were this moment in the hot, perhaps
overheated cars, and the next were
passing over the platform, exposed to
the cold, which was increased by the
speed Of the train. These continual and
sudden changes Of temperature have al
ways been found to be very hard on the
health of the conductors, making the
disease I have mentioned very ctmmon.
The vestibule arrangement saves the
trainmen, as well as the passengers,
from such dangerous exposures as they
pass from one heated car to another In
these raw, wintry days.

HOW MUCH A KISS?
The Pretty Swiss Maiden and the Student
from Pennsylvania.

The Pretty Swiss Maiden and the Student
from Pennsylvania.
When was journeying through the
Brunig pass in Switzerland the train
stopped at one of the small stations
there, says writer in the Philadelphia
Press. 1t is the custom for the Swiss
girls to come out to the carriages with
fruit in small wicker baskets which
they sell to the tourists for fifty cent
lines, or ten cents in our money. At
the particular station Of which l write
it was an exceedingly pretty maiden
which came up to our carriage, with
her braided, weatherbleached hair
shining uncovered in the soft Swiss sun
shine; her eyes were blue and sweet
and her voice was very beautiful.
"Feefty centimes" was all she could
say as she held up her fruit to us, smil-
ing winningly the while. Among our
party was young U. of P. student.
"Jove, but isn't she pretty!'' he ex-
claimed, and suddenly leaned recklessly
out OF the window and said boldly to
the pretty creature: "What would you
take for kiss?' "Feefty centimes,"
the girl replied, holding up her fruit
and smiling sweetly; whereupon the i'm
pressible student sprang out of the car
riage and, rushing up TO the Swiss
maiden, quietly bought one of the bas-
kets of fruit, saying, as he came laugh
ing back: "Wen, l had but fifty cent
lines and thought I'd rather have the
fruit than the kiss, and then, too,
promised my mother not to take any
risks over here-she might have brought
a breach-of-promise suit, you know"
and then added, shaking his head sagely
and signing: "One can't be too careful
with these women, even in unsophisti.
Gated Switzerland"

He Followed the Captains Directions and
Made Ample Reparation.
A lady passenger much annoyed the
luggage steward by having her luggage
got ready for being put ashore at vari-
GUS places of call, says the Spectator.
At each place the passenger seemed to
alter her mind and to form the desire of
going on further. At last she said she
would go on to Inverness. Then the
luggage steward said: "Oh! go to the
deuce!' The lady, in high state of in
dignation. reported the man to the cap
tain. That gentleman told the steward
he must find the lady and apologize to
her. The steward consented to do so.
AT luncheon he appeared and accost-
ed the first lady at the table thus:
"Were you the lady told to go to the
deuceP" NO" said this lady and sew
eral others, all equally surprised and
amused. At last, by series of sepa-
rate interrogations, he discovered the
right lady. She responded, with an in
dignantly virtuous air: "Yes, am the
lady" "Ah! then" said the steward,
"the captain told me to tell you that
you needn't CO."

No HabitatiOn.

There can be no habitation in the
blood or body for poisonous microbes
when Swift's Specific enters the system,
It changes the character OF the blood 80
that the germs must either perish or get
out, and of course they leave. S. s. s.
also forces out the poison which the
microbes have left behind. If there is a
sore or ulcer the poison comes out
through that, otherwise through the skin.
Having suffered much from contag.
ious blood poison, after using half a
dozen bottles of Swift's Specific, was
restored to perfect health, and all erup.
tive sores disappeared. You are at liberty
to make any use of my statement that
you wish.-J. CROSBY BYRON, 2OS Third

THE OvERSHOE TRICK.

A Mean Joke to Perpetrate on . Sloppy
Day.
'Ever see the evershoe trick?" asked
an indignant man the other day of a
Chicago Tribune man. ''It's the mean
est thing I've seen lately and I think it
ought to be exposed in the papers. I'm
a victim myself" he continued, sand
know just how it is done. There's a
lot of young toughs down here on Clark
street and they have been practicing
until they have got the thing down
fine. It's like this:
"A fellow steps up briskly behind
you which, of course, you do not notice
when walking along crowded street,
and, with deftness born of evil,
touches the heel Of one of your rubber
overshoes with the toe of his boot.
This is done SO eXpcrtly that when you
lift that foot to take another step off
comes your overshoe. You turn around
and find fellow with his hat lifted,
bowling his apologies, but in the mean
time he has touched the heel of your
other rubber, and there you stand in
the slush, minus both overshoes. What
csu you do beyond putting on your
shoes again? There is no redress and
that makes it all the worse"

/ Had Faith,

About six months ago was advised to
consult Mrs, Hall, the great Spiritualist
doctor, to see if she could cure me of
Scrotula, from which I have suffered
from childhood. She said if I would
have faith in the medicine she gave me,
that she coutd cure me. I took her
medicine, and in less than three months
was cured. Why, the way the medi-
cine worked was miracle. 1 begged
of her to tell me what the medicine was
made of, but she said she could not do
so. Finally she told me the medicine
was Sulphur Bitters, and that she never
knew it to fail in all such cases as mine.

Money Spent by Tourists.

A Swiss economist paper makes the
following interesting statement: ''The
hotels and pensions In Switzerland dis
pose of e2,5o0 beds, which are annually
used by 5,724,oOO tourists, paying to the
proprietors for such use and other re-
quirements the sum of 1915 francs daily
on an average-which makes the total
gross receipts 71,545,000 francs. The
tourists spend besides about 10 francs
per diem for travel, guides, amusements,
medical attendance, ETC., equal to to-
tai OF 7,240, 900 francs-the two amounts
making an aggregate of 1913, ,7S5, 900
francs. If from this sum are deducted
100000 francs for the travelling and
hotel expenses of the native population,
there still remain 1875, 7s5, 900 francs as
the sum annually brought by foreign
tourists into Switzerland.

LIGHTNING ON SHlPBOARD.

and lightning. He had just got aft and
turned around when he saw something
exceedingly bright drop before him,
and he was knocked down. In falling
he struck his head against the rail,
which stunned him for minute.
"When he got up he found that the
front part of his legs were severely
scorched. Two of the planlxs in the
deck were charred about an inch deep
for a length of seven feet, and the main
royal mast of a ship lying abouta quar-
ter of a mile Gsterp was broken off,
though whether by the same stroke he
could not tell
"When the deck was repaired my fa-
ther kept the charred portions, and he
still has them to show to anyone who
doubts his story.
"The ships that were struck by the
lightning had no conductors on their
masts. Most ships have them now. In
the ship on which served my time we
had platinum rod on each truck, with
wire conductors passing through glass
insulators down the backstays.
ION the least sign of thunder the ends
of these wires were thrown over the
side. On dark nights when there was
any lightning flashing the points of the
platinum rods used to have blue light
glimmering on them, and the effect was
very weird and uncanny."

SUNSET BLUES AND RE ps.
How the Gorgeous Colorlues OF Twilight
Skies Are Produced. a

How the Gorgeous ColorluGs OF Twilight
Skies Are Produced.
Observers of the gorgeous sunsets and
afterglows have been most particularly
struck with the immense wealth Of the
various shades and tints of red. Now,
II the glowing colors are due to tho
presence Of dust in the air, there must
be somewhere display Of the colors
complementary to the reds, because the
dust acts by q selective dispersion Of the
colors.
The small dust particles arrest the di-
rectcourse of the rays of light and reflect
them in all directions, but they princi-
pally reflect the rays Of the violet end
of the spectrum, while the red rays
pass on almost unchecked. Overhead
deep blue reigns in aweinspiring glory.
AS the sun passes below the horizon,
and the lower stratum of air, with its
larger particles of dust which reflect
light, ceases to be illuminated, the
depth and fullness of the blue most in
tensely increase. This effect is pro-
duced by the very Gne particles of dust
in the sky overhead being unable to
scatter any colors unless those of short
.wave-lengths at the violet end of the
spectrum. Thus we see. above, blue in
its intensity without any of the red
colors, says the Popular Science
Monthly.
When, however, the observer brings
his eyes down in any direction except
the west he will see the blue mcllowing
into blue-green, green and then rose
color. And some of the most beautiful
and delicate colors are formed by the
air cooling and depositing it's moisture
on the particles of dust, increasing the
size Of the particles till they are suffi-
ciently large to stop and spread the red
rays, when the sky glows with strange
aurora-lilSe light.

CRUEL MOTHERS.lN.LAW.
In India . Wife IL the Slave Of Her Hus-

In India wife IL the Slave Of Her Hus-
bands Mother.
One hundred and forty years ago a
Bengal poet sang Of the love Of Vidya
and Sundara. His work is mine of in
formation on some of the social customs
Of our country In his time. In certain
scene he describes number of Hindu
women bcwailing their miseries in do
mestic life-one curses her fate as the
victim of 'a tigress mother-in-law," and
of a cruel nanada husbands sister.)
The great prevalence of the mother
in-law's prosecutions nowadays, says
the Indian News, has obtained for such
a one the sobriquet of Boukautki, or
the tormentor of a daughter-in-law.
We have indeed angelic mothers-in-law,
more motherly than natural mothers,
but their existence by it's contrast cx-
hibits their opposites in the most horrid
colors. In the cottages of the poor as
well as in the mansions of the rich
these monsters play unmolested their
devilish pranks with their sons wives,
among whom some become Injured to
them, some bicler, and others Of a sem
sitive and delicate nature succumb.
The daily routine of such tortures,
which relates to food, raiment, bedding,
bath and toilette, domestic service, COM
pany of husband and of near relatives,
and take the shape of angry and foul
vituperations is not much noticed. 1t
becomes only the subject of gossip Of
neighboring families and of lamenta-
tion by her parental relations. 1t is only
when the conduct of BoulSautki cul-
inmates in serious acts of violence, mu-
tilations, homicide or murder, or when
it leads to suicide that in rare instances
it comes 10 public notice and under
cognizance of law. Lately criminal
courts in the town and Mofussil have
recorded cases of conviction in which
wives, for the most trivial faults, had
been seriously injured or murdered by
their husbands and mothers-in-law.

getting people up, not for sending them
to bed, but l know of at least one au-
thentic case IN which the latter end was
attained by it, says writer in Kate

woman who refused to take an after

think Of 1t until 1t was too late," was
astonished by the gift of an alarm
clock with the alarm set exactly at
