BEING BURIED ALIVE.
1t Sometimes Occurs as the Result OF
Installing Q Trance for Death.

The reporter called on a prominent ply
stefan and asked him his views in regard
to premature burial. The physician said:
Recently a friend of mine, z physician,
told me OF a conversation that he had with
two prominent undertakers in Chicago.
The death trance and burial alive were the
themes of conversation. The danger OF
catalepsy being mistaken for death was
admitted by this THO; but how to deter
mine case of dou btful character was not
easy of solution
Said one undertaken: In all cases
hasten TO embalm. After body is en-
balmed there is no danger of its coming to
life again. Never will any of the bodies
buried by me come to life / always fix
them so that there is no danger of such an
occurrence. No one will ever say that L
buried a live person. l started in business
in little town in Minnesota, and one even
ing was called to arrange a body for bur
ial. The body was that of a young girl
We fixed everything up nicely and went
home. The funeral was TO occur next day.
At about O'Clock in the morning L was
called again, aISs what / saw made my
flesh creep. The girl had come back to
life and was the liveliest dead person 1
ever saw. She had gone into a trance,
during which she had seemed TO be dead.
The body looked exactly as though in
death, and the attending physician had de-
''Said the second undertaken: I once had
a man work for me who had a horror of
such things. He was a Spaniard, and was
one of the best men l ever had work for
me. This man always pierced the hearts
of the bodies he prepared for burial. When
in Madrid, where he learned his trade, he
buried a man whom a disbursement proved
to have been buried alive. The authorities
made trouble. He made VOW that he
would never again run such a risk, and he
made il a point ever afterward 60 thrust

The Miners Safety Lamp.

The smallest lamp is the miners safety
lamp, invented in 1916 by Sir Humphry
Davy. The frame of this is of iron and
brass inclosed in wire gauze The reser-
yoir is of brass screwed to the bottom of
the lamp and locked with key. Its wick
is raised by lowering sliding tube over
the wick carrier by means of a wire run
ming outside of the lamp and exposing a
fresh section of the wick. The key tc
this lamp was kept by the officer in charge
of the mine, so that the miner could not
possibly expose the flame to the firedamp.

How Coins Are Classed.

Coins are classed, according to their state
of preservation, as proof" ''uncircu-
lated, !" fine, - good" fair and poor. !"
Proof coins are those which have been made
for collectors by the mint regularly during
the last forty years. They are rendered
brilliant by Furnishing Uncirculated
coins are those which have been laid away
carefully since the time when they We're
minted, so that they have the original mint
luster and are sharp as when coined.
Fine coins have the hair, eyes and letters
bold and sharp and not worn off or cor
roded Good coins are those in which the
hair and eyes show up well, the date and
all the letters perfectly plain.
What would be considered fine for a
cent, however. would only be good in a
gold coin. Fair coins have the date dis
tinct, but hair and letters somewhat worn.
Poor coins are those which have the date
indistinct, or the hair and letters badly
worn, or the surface badly corroded, or
which have been pierced or battered.-In-
terview in Washington Star.

Ocean Currents.

The currents of the ocean are the great
transporters of the suns heat from the tor
rid zone to temper the climate of the polar
regions. 1t is argued by some that such a
stupendous change as that which occurred
in Europe and America in the glacial
period was caused simply by a DETECTION
of the currents in the northern hem
isphere, whereby its share of tropical heat
was partly diverted toward the south.
In the three great oceans-the Atlantic,
the Pacific and the 1ndian-there is to he
found similar circulation-a general
westerly movement in the tropics, flow
toward the poles along the eastern shores
of the continents, an easterly set in the
temperate zone and "A current toward the
equator along the western shores. This
system thus becomes a grand circular
movement, some parts being very slow,
but still quite constant, and other parts
very swift There are offshootS here and
there, due to local causes, and perhaps in
the slowly moving current there may be a
temporary interruption, but taken as a
whole the movement is continuous
The part of this circulation flowing
along the eastern coast of the United
States is the greatest of all these currents,
and in fact is the most magnificent of all
natures wonders. This is the Gulf Stream.
The name Gulf Stream was first suggested
by Benjamin Franklin, because it comes
from the Gulf of Mexico. While it is a
portion of the grand scheme of ocean cir
culation, and the Gulf of Mexico is in
reality only a stopping place, as it were, for
its water, the name Is generally applied to
the current when it reaches the Straits of
Florida, north of Cuba. In the large
funnel shaped opening toward the Gulf of
Mexico the current is at first variable in
direction and velocity, but by the time
Havana is reached it has become a regular
and steady fiow-Detroit Free Press.

DiseaSeandCurf
Medical knowledge Applied.

Disease is a weakness or loss of vital
force in some part of the body.
The success of the treatment is due to
the fact that the physician applies his
knowledge in his practice and employs
such remedies only as sire ngthe2 the
body in all its part. and at the same lime
fortifies and conserves the vital forces.
In disease some part of the body is not
