Il WEIRD STORY FROM MUSHROOM.

A spiritualist from Muskegon, Mich,
named Fielding, is slowly dying with
consumption, and has a scheme by
which he hopes to prove to those still
in the material state that his spirit
exists after it's separation from the
time ago and obtained a large glass
cylinder, SO constructed that it can be
sealed air tight in a moments time.
In this cylinder he has suspended with
fine copper wire two pieces of metal
so light that they can be brought in
contact with each other by the slight
est motion of air shut within the cyl
inder. These wires pass through the
cylinder, one being connected with a
battery and the other with a tele-
graphic instrument. He has made
arrangements for his friends just be-
fore his spirit leaves his body to seal
him in the cylinder that his spirit
may be prevented from taking its
departure, and at the same time en-
abled by a series of systematic dis
turbances of the air within the cylin
der to communicate with his friends
through the telegraphic instrument.
If this experience proves successful
his friends are pledged, after three
days, to unseal the cylinder and allow
the spirit to depart and then seal up
and bury the remains.

THE FIRST CHRISTMAS.

The snowy focks on Bcth1ehem's plain
In quiet slamber lay,
While softly spoke the shepherds there
OF great Messiah day:
eft must be near, that day OF days,
When Christ the Lord shall come,
A King DER all the world to reign
And lead his people home"
Fen while they spoke, heavenly light
Spread over sky and earth,
And in that light an angel bright
Told of Messiah's birth;
Then other angels, clear and sweet,
A song of JOY began;
'sTo God be glory, and on earth
Be peace, good viii to mani
Oh! quickly now to ''David's town.
The shepherds took their way,
For there, babe in manger bed,
The great Messiah lay.
With love and faith their hearts were full
Before the child they knelt;
Yet in that stable low and mean
A Kingly presence felt!

anted the old barn on my way back, .
he said half jokingly, as he left the
house.
The wind had gone down considera-
bly,, but still blew strongly. The snow
was deep, and at every step Mr.. Brad
shaw sank into it up to his boot tops,
this made walking very hard. Ole
Dolly was not there.
"Mother's right, the clever critters
taken shelter in the barn, 'he thought.
He fastened toward the crazy build
ing and entered it. Yes, there was
Dolly, sure enough, standing in a
broken down stall, and evidently
making the best Of her cherries con-
dition. AS Mr.. Bradshaw approached
she whinnied softly, at the same time
another noise - very strange one
for such e-attracted his atten-
ton. He listened. 1t was a ch1d's
cry! Hurriedly turning in the direction
from which it came, sight met his
eyes which made him start back in
surprise On heap of straw, cover
ed by an old horse blanket, lay a
woman, land by her side pretty baby.
The farmer uttered loud exclama-
ton.

sprang forward and clasped her in his
arms ssWhy didn't you come into

'sI could not walk any farther.
had sprained my ankle and should
have persisted in the snow but for
Dolly. She recognized me at once
when I stumbled against her in the
pasture and whinnied Then I knew
her and what was even better, that I
was near home. I managed to put
baby on her back, hoping she would
take US to some place of shelter-as
she did, you see," looking about the
barn with a faint smile. ''I found a
bit of candle and lit it, and managed
very well.
ssYou poor soul! What will your
mother say!" cried the farmer, tears
in his eyes. ''To think you should
pass the night in this place! But come
Dolly-good Dolly-help me to get
your mistress home, and you shall
have the best feed you ever had in all
your born days"
The old farmhouse is no longer
sad place, Lucilla and Lucilla's child
make brightness there from morning
until night.
The poor wife's story is a common
one. The man she had married SO
hastily proved to be gambler of the
lowest type, he abused and at last de-
serted her. Then she found the way
home, with the result we know.
Old Dolly is alive still, and has the
warmest, suggest stall in Farmer
Bradshaw's stable.
ssFor if it hadn't been for that crit
ter's wise old head you and me would
have been childless, mother" he often
says. And Mrs. Bradshaw, glancing
at her now happy daughter, responds
tearfully.
'sSurely, father. God bless Old Dol
