Floggins the Tired Brain.

A singular discovery has been made
by DR.. Lauder Brunton. By an accident
he found out the secret of how to have
ideas at will. One night, after long
days work, he was called upon to write
On article. He sat down with pen, ink
and paper, and, as has very often hap-
pened before under similar conditions,
nota single idea came into his head. He
then began to reason and to attempt to
find why the brain, which was appar-
emily the same as it was the day before,
when it worked normally, should refuse
to respond to the dictates of the will.
He arrived at the conclusion that the day
before he was not tired, and that there
fore the circulation was brisker.
Continuing his cogitations he traced
the connection between cerebral circu-
lation and mental activity, and conclud-
ed that If the blood would not come to
the brain the next best thing would be
to bring the brain down to the blood.
And this he did. The happy thought Of
laying his head flat on the table sudden
ly flashed across the seat Of the late in
activity, and at once his ideas began to
flow and his pen ran swiftly across the
paper. The work progressed SO well
that DR.. Brunton thought he might as
well sit up. But it would not do. The
moment he raised his head his mind re-
verified to darkness, SO he had to put
down his head again upon the table, and
finished the article in that position
Exchange.

A Noble Husband.

The historian Xenophen relates that
when Cyrus, the founder of the Persian
empire, had taken captive young
prince of Armenia, together with his
beautiful and blooming wife, of whom
he was remarkably fond, they were
brought before the tribunal of Cyrus to
receive their sentence. The warrior in
quired of the prince what he would give
to be reinstated in his kingdom, and he
replied that he valued his crown and his
liberty at a very low rate, but if the
noble conqueror would restore his be-
loved wife to her former dignity and
possessions he would willingly pay his
life for the purchase. The prisoners
were dismissed to enjoy their freedom
and former honors, and each was lavish
in praise of the conqueror. "And you,"
said the prince, addressing his wife,
what think you of Cyrusf'' ~ did not
observe him." she replied. "Not observe
him!" exclaimed her husband. upon
whom, then, was your attention fxed?'
upon that dear and generous man, she
replied, "who declared his readiness to
purchase my liberty at the expense Of
his life"
