the understanding. 1t is only when he
comes to the case of hypnotism that this
distinguished scientist admits that there
is mystery, the solution of which is as
yet in the future.
He cites as proof positive that one in
the hypnotic condition may be operated
on by suggestion, the case of DIR. Charcot
OF Paris, who applied bit of water
moistened brown paper to the skin of a
patient in the hypnotic state, and by sug-
gestion caused the patient to believe a
blister was being raised on his body.
Presently the blister developed. But he
marks this distinction between the popu-
lar belief that one may control another
obJectively, and the fact that the hypnotic
power is subjective-the mind can only
act upon its own body, never on the body
Of another. If one desires to blister the
skin of another through hypnotic influ-
ence, we can do so only by causing the
mind OF the other to produce the blister.

PROFESSOR SHALER, after careful
study of the subject of the changes going
on in the earth's crust, is convinced that
while on the Atlantic side of the continent
there is no reason to fear earthquakes to
an extent to justify cessation of construc-
ton Of tall buildings, is positive that
there is sufficient reason for architects to
make such departures as will assure rea-
sonably against damage from seismic dis
turbances. That is, they must consider
from that standpoint the strain to which
buildings are subjected by earthquakes,
which have become so much more fire.
quent in late years. He is confident that
high measure of security may be had
by the introduction of iron and steel
more generally than heretofore, and that
this may be done without very greatly
increasing the cost of construction. He
pays California builders this high COM
pliment: "The only builders who have
read the earthquake lesson Alright are
those of California, where in many cases
admirable precautions have been taken
to insure the greater edifices against the
dangers which earth tremors may bring
to Them"

The telegraphic dispatches relate how
lightning struck q telephone wire in Ger
many which the Emperor was using.
The bolt knocked the telephone girls
senseless. 1t is added that it is "mirac-
ulous' that the Emperor was not
stricken also. How so? If it was mirac-
ulous that the Kaiser escaped how about
the hello girls' who did not? Wherein
is there anything miraculous in the one
case and not in the other? This loose
way of dealing with words is silly and
disgusting. There was nothing in the

SEVERAL of our San Francisco contem-
poraries continue to assal the parole bill,
and to urge the Governor not to approve
it. We are charitably disposed in iudg-
ing these criticisms, and to hold that the
San Francisco papers do not understand
what the BILLS. They have accepted the
statements oftheir Legislative correspond
ents, that it means general Jail delivery
of all first termers. We venture the as
sertion that the text of the bill has not
been read by the editors; they do not
know that it is almost an exact copy of
the Ohio law, which is certified to work
well by so high an authority as the Gov
ernor of the State. The assaults made by
the San Francisco press are vituperative
and denunciatory, there is not advanced
by any of them a single reason why the
bill should not become law, that is not
based upon false premise.

Body Supposed TO be That of the

The body of a man was found in the
river about mile below Isleton yester-
day afternoon. 1t is sup posed to be that
of the deckhand of one Of the river
steamers, known as Charley" a Ger
man, who mysteriously disappeared
about three weeks ago.
He was known to have been implicated
in fight and it is suspected that he was
the victim of a tragedy and that his body
was thrown into the river. The body
found yesterday is described as being
that of man about five feet five inches
high, sandy hair and mustache, dressed
in blue shirt and overalls, with elastic
shoes on his feet,

FAITH SUGGESTION AND CURE.


DR.. Cyrus Edison of New York says he
isl a believer in the faith cure, as
must be every physician of observation;
but, and here the doctor applies a most
important condition, only when it is sub
iective. He has not a grain of belief in it
when it is objective. He believes in it as
an aid and not as an end. Belief in the
mower of the physician to help one, every
body knows is most essential assistance
TO the physician; the patient who has
faith in the doctor who treats him, who
has confidence in the means used to re-
store him to health, has already made
distinct advance towards recovery.
But DIR. Edison has no patience with
medical fads, and proceeds in the North
American Review to ridicule them un-
mercifully; the milk cure, the grape cure,
the rest cure. blue glass cure, elixir of
life cure. come in for unsparing denun-

BECAUSE distinguished scientist re-
ports that there is, in his opinion, not so
much danger this season as there was
last year, of the cholera crossing the At

any relaxation of vigor in taking sani-

cannot pin faith upon opinions-the thing

that on January goth last, Mrs. Pow

railroad on Broadway, slipped and
fell on the ice and permanently in
jured herself in body and health.
The accident, the plaintiff says, was
the result of the defendants negli-

seeks to recover the amount of the
damages set out. The case will be

would give us electric light on the

the same price we are now paying
for gas for only part of the night.

The HANDY MECHANIC.

How He Can Supply the Farm Kitchen
with Hot Water.
A friend of mine has not only carried
water into the kitchen in pipes, but
with his own hands has made a connec-
ton for the kitchen stove, which heats
an abundance of water for all house
hold purposes without lifting and with
out any danger of explosions from
steam.
A box holding to 90 gallons of water
must be mounted near the sink and
lined with copper or tin; or strong
iron-bound key will do. In either case
it must not have a tight-6tting lid, or
an explosion of confined steam would
result. To fill the tank, short piece
of pipe or. trough is placed SO thatwater
will run from the cold-water faucet into
it. (See A in cut-) Another faucet for
the water from the tank makes the
work easier than dipping it out. The
heating is done as follows: The water
tank is higher than the kitchen stove.
A pipe connected with the box at the
bottom is carried along the wall to the
back of the stove, enters it through the
pipe above the collar, turns in several
coils just over the oven, and passes out
as it came, ending midway in the side
of the box close to the wall With
tight joints all the way, no Leakage

very annoying thing IN any kitchen
will occur. The coolest water falls to
the bottom of the box always, whence
it finds its way to the stove, and, being
heated, returns, entering the top of the
tank by the other pipe. The arrows in
the cut show the motion of the water.
Instead of eXpensively drilling the side
or back of the stove, slot is merely cut
in the stovepipe, which is easier, and
just as effective for the entrance
of the water pipes. Galvanized pipe
is not needed in the stove, and proba-
bly, it will be necessary to get a length
coiled for the purpose by plumbe as
this is a difficult job to do without spoil
ing it. If one be fortunate enough to
own stove or range with water
front, of course the pipes may be simply
connected with it. Two pairs of pipe
nippers will be required to screw on
the joints, but these can easily be bor-
rowed where the pipe is bought. After
taking measurements, the different
lengths of pipe can be cut and threaded
in a short time at the same place The
only soldering required will be for the
tank and lining and pipe attachment.
If key be used, strong oak one
should be selected, and the pipe screwed
into holes bored a trife too small and
painted. When wet the wood will
swell and make a tight seam about the

cheap that it is shame not to have

the ever-too-busy farmers wife may

how quickly and easily the work may
be done after the arrangements are
