Killed by Imagination.

The odd fact is that a mans mind is
stronger than his body, and if he decides
that the wheels shall stop at Il given time
they are very likely to do so. An emotion
will influence q heart beat. The physical
machinery is dependent on what is going
on in the brain.
On one occasion a condemned felon was
given in charge Of some doctors for expert
mental purposes. They blindfolded him,
bored his arm, told him they were going to
bleed him to death. made a puncture in the
artery, but without drawing a drop of
blood, and then let warm water trickle
over the flesh. The poor creature was un-
der the impression that he was really bleed
ing, and while the doctors talked in whis.
pers he grew faint, his heart slowed in its
action, and after awhile he wa stone dead.
1t is agood deal better to think you are
going to live than that you are going to
die. Many Il sick man has got we'll because
he wanted to. The body is the veriest slave
of our thoughts and passions, and if you
have a notion that you are i'll the notion
will create illness. Keep cheerful and live
as long as you an.-Exchange.

The vivisector Held Tn.

One OF the most curious expeditions ever
planned by man was that once undertaken
by DR.. j. G.. Bunting of Portland. During
all his life he had been a close student of
the philosophy of digestion, and for the
purpose of his Investigations he had that
remarkable Canadian, Alexis St. Martin,
in his care for go years.

f doubling Thomases,
Dr. Bunting .... about for some one else
upon whom he might continue to expert
ment. He could think of but one plan, and
that was to 20 into Africa, buy two slaves
and operate upon their stomachs. By OPEN
ing the body lear the fifth rib and per-
forating the stomach a condition could be
produced similar to that existing in the
person of St. Martin. Therefore the doctor
purchased his supplies and sailed across to
Tunis in the north of Africa. There he
hired a native chief with 40 of his follow
ers, paying them a liberal retaining fee and
promising alluring largess when the trip
should be ended.
They set forth. The doctor carried Ell 900
in his inside pocket, and the chief probably
lay awake four nights thinking about the
matter. At any rate on the fifth night he
sneakad into the DOCTORS tent and delivered
little address over the muzzles of two pis.
tolls. When he had concluded, the doctor
passed over his ducats, and the chief passed
over the border along with his renegade
band. They helped themselves to such sup
plies as suited their artless and unenlight-
ened tastes. The doctor came back with
out a r%etinue, but with IL deal of experience

there was not II sign of disorder about it.
l could go on with a long list, but it is
scarcely necessary. The actresses of this
country, at least, are a self respecting body
Of women, II therefore they wear their
prettiest gowns for themselves.
A message came for me the other day
from a prominent importer, saying that
there was something new for me to see.
What do you suppose it was? Why, about
q million dollars worth Of shawls, and
there Were not so very many of them
either. They cost all the way from $500 tc
$500 apiece. They are India shawls and
cost at the rate of 800 a pound or more.
They are the same as those worn by our
Observation-Disclosures, and theirs be-
fore them, for the fashion never changes in
India shawls. They are worn or not, Just
as caprice seizes the fair but an
India shawl is always y magnificent thing,
richer and more valuable than any fur ex-
cept perhaps sable and real black fox.
Some Of these have black centers, some
white, some red, and the patterns labori-
ously worked out vary also, some being
arabesques and others the standard palm
leaf, with the colors so ingeniously mingled
as to appear all one. The best ones are
those with the smallest plain space in the
center.
Well, these magnificent shawls will be
offered for this winter for those who want
something entirely in keeping with the
present styles in gowns and bonnets. They
will doubtless be worn doubled into a tri-
angle as they We're of old. and very happy
will she be who gets one, and still happier
she who has one laid away. for she can use
the money one would cost for something
else, and thus practice economy, which is
very necessary these hard times.
Among the other novelties of the week, l
noted a new velvet stamped or woven into
a crepe pattern. There was shown me a
line OF these in every color. but the most
elegant was the black, which showed up
beautifully in the Grape effect, some of the
shadows formed by the grapes looking al
most like FURNISHED steel. The two toned
velvets and velutinas will be seen every

ing scarcely as popular rs that with a plain
surface through which the underlying
color shows as it folds and moves. Velutina
has gained a solid foothold as one of the
richest and most serviceable of winter dress
fabrics and is accorded a higher place thar
ever before, for while velvet is the ideal fab
rio unless one can afford a first class quail
ity of Lyons velvet it is not good economy
to buy it. The cheap qualities, with cot
ton back, soon crease and grow shabby, but
the velutina does not, and now it is ranked
as among the best goods of that class.

goods, among them odd effects in tufted

erected so rapidly that it is quite certain
that on the opening day, Jan. l., 1894, every
thing will be practically complete and
ready for the reception Of visitors. Six
miles of railroad track have been laid by
the Southern Pacific company from its

exposition can o be loaded on the cars

This is q more important matter than it

pretty, though odd, piece of goods has a
plaid made of ZigZags, and as if scattered
with a lavish hand there are white tufts,
looking more like popped corn than any,
thing else. The ground is in brown and
black. The material looks warm and yet
light.
There are some new h%erringbone% cheviots,
very pretty and making up handsome tai
lor gowns with a little very narrow braid.
Tailor gowns are stitched and rarely
trimmed otherwise. A single line of braid
around the skirt is seen sometimes, but the
most stylish of them have not even that,
and where a waist can be made without
visible means of fastening it is done so.
Suits to match are very stylish now, and
jackets of cheviot-gray, brown. blue and
black-are made in this style. The skirt is
usually plain or sparingly trimmed, and
the waist is snug and simple. The coat is
tight in front or loose, az the wearer pre-
fers, but the back should fit closely. The
skirts to the coat should reach nearly or
quite to the knees and be very full in the
back. Large buttons Of horn or oxidized
metal are set in front and sometimes on
the back just below the waist line. These
jackets are finished as best suits the wear
er. but large lapels and ripple, worth,
spring and umbrella collars are worn,
sometimes bound with fur and sometimes
not, as preferred.
This season everything will be bordered
or trimmed with fur, even the hats. Many
of them have q border of fur around the
edge, Il tiny animals head and a bird rest
Ing comfortably together On top for trim
ming. Eur of almost every known species
is used. That of the brown bear makes a
handsome garniture, and the dcspised
skunk furnishes manya lady with elegant
trimming~for her cloak under the name of
alaska sable. Red fox fur and real chin
chilla are both seen this season. The chin
chilla fur has been almost forgotten for
years, but will now doubtless have a run.
Seal military capes will be oftener seen
than any other seal garment. Seal costs
81 an inch this fall, and so a medium sized
seal military cape is worth, or sells, from
$500 to $500. Moire astrakhan, marten.
monkey skin, mink and beaver are all made
into box capes and military capes. A few
racks are seen, but they are much shorter
than before.
There is Il beautiful Grape for dancing in
rainbow stripes, with gold thread in
woven to look like stars. This is semi
transparent, and the rainbow colors are
woven lengthwise in delicate and beautiful
shades. There are also several new varie-
ties of colored grapes in the same deep
crinkle that makes the courtauld grape SO
famous, and these are for evening and
dancing gown and for combinations.

NATURE NEVER NlGGAROLY.

1t is we'll known to everybody that the
seeds Of the cotton plant were for many
years regarded rs waste and worthless ma
terial. Millions Of tons Of them have been
thrown away, and one of the perplexitics
Of the cotton painter was how to get rid of
| this o bulk of stuff that had no
market value.
Within Il recent date, however, cotton
seed has become utilized, and instead of
being useless it has come to be we'll nigh
priceless. 1t furnishes an oil which can be
used for mechanical purposes and is easily
salable us u good and cheap substitute for
| olive oil. From 3,0oO,0V to 100000 tons of
seeds are produced every year, and the
planter finds in ita very fortunate addition
to his profits.
But a still further use has been discov-
cred. An English inventor recently found
a way to convert this oil into rubber, and II
large number of factories in the United
States are making nj of it IL substance
which is likely in the near future to GUST
from the market the rubber product of the
Caribbean coast.
Nature is never niggardly, and when we
clear out one of her storehouses she imme
diately opens the door of another. Our
whaling fleets so years ago represented one
of our most important industries. Nam
tucket and New Bedford grew rich and
prosperous, sent out scores of vessels on
long voyages, sometimes of two or three
years.
But whales grew scarce, and we wondered
what would become of us. The whaling
craft rotted at the wharves, because it was
no longer profitable to man them. Then
some lucky fellow, digging we'll in Penn
sylvania, found to his surprise that oil gush-
ed out instead of water, and all the world
| wondered. Other wells We're sunk, COM
panies We're formed and colossal fortunes
were amassed. The whales could be dis
pensed with, for under every mans farm in
certain localities was an ineXhaustible res.
ervoir of the precious fluid.
And now we are told that this whole
delta of the Mississippi is composed of mud
which is valuable as Il fertilizer. The soil
is u rich deposit, which has been brought
by the lazy current for 1000 miles, is the
gift of every state through which the river
flows, and some years, or some generations
hence, it will prove q bonanza to it's own
ers. We ship fertilizers from distant quar-
tiers of the globe, and they are as market
able as wheat or corn. The demand is
steadily on the increase, and it is not inn
| probable that the acres of black loan at
the mouth of our lordly river will be
shipped for the enrichment of northern
farms.
