A CoIored Higher Critic.

There is refreshing artlessness about
the negro preacher who is told of in
the New York Observer. He became
touched with the "higher criticism
idea, and elaborated a new theory OF
the exodus, to wit: That the Red sea
was frozen over, and so afforded the
Israelites a safe passage, but when
Pharaoh with his heavy iron chariots
attempted to cross he broke through
and was drowned. A brother arose and
asked an explanation on hat pint
Said he: Use been studyin' geography,
and de geography say dat am de place
whar de tropics am, and de tropics an
too hot TO- freezin'; de pint to be
'splained is bout breakin' though de
ice" The preacher Strengthened him
self up, and said: "Brudder. Use GLAD
you axed dat question, for it gives me
'casion to 'splain it. You see, dat wa,
a great while ago, befo' dey had any
Biographies, and befo' deere war any

IMPORTANCE OF THE NERVES.
The Complex System Which Connects thu
Brain with ALI Extremities.

The Complex System Which Connects the
Brain with All Extremities.
There are very few persons who have
even a slight conception of nerves rs
they exist and Of the part which they
have to play in the affairs of life. The
nerves are the wheel of fortune" and
any little interference with their cogi
means a DETECTION from the normal.
The nervous system begins with the
brain and ends at every extremity. Lit
tie ends of systems of complex compost
tons are the Geographic and the trans
fer agents OF every impression trans
mitted to the central station. Nerves
are simply the opponents of impress
sions, and are not responsible for what
they transmit. Nerves start from the
spinal cord, aud incidentally the brain,
and, according to the Baltimore Herald,
are simply age nts of more important
matters than the various senses which
they subserve. The nerves are subject
to external influences which are not
regulated on a monetary scale. They
are masters in every sense of the word.
They may maintain their energy for
years, Dr. they may serve their time OF
duty and degenerate. While they hold
their sway they regulate life; when they
get tired they are useless. The life
of the nerve is a matter of idiosyncrasy.
One may preserve an ideal for many
years and another for as many months.
It is the temperament and he individ
nal which act as a balance wheel.
Nerves are subjected to every influence
Of wind and weather, to sensations OF
sight, hearing, tasting, feeling and
smelling; they nave to attend to every
function of the body and to regulate
the affairs of life. If one could bear in
mind that impressions have to be re-
ceived and reported it would not require
much reasoning to be convinced that the
| lines of delicate tissue which attend to
this work require a little rest, as
we'll as do the other parts of the body,
and they are human as well as ener-
getic in the performance Of duty. The
nerves of the eye, of h ear, OF the
| hands and feet, of the nose and mouth,
are sensitive bodies, and convey simply
sensitory impressions which have to be
| recorded by the brain. These impress
sions are photographed and deposited
in recollection and form the basis OF
dreams. The nerves of the body, which
have nothing to do with sensation, con
troll the muscles, both voluntary and in
voluntary, and preserve the secondary
part of existence. They make you walk,
move your arms and in general keep
you going. Other nerves, not connected
with the muscles or muscular exertions,
waste their exertions, waste their en-
ergy on the various functions of life.

THE KELLEY INSTITUTE
T Twelve Years of Establishes Merit
NOTE OF WARMING!
TO THE PUBLIC:

10 IHE PUBLlC:
DWIGHT, H., April 80, 1892.
As a matter Of justice to ourselves and to
the reputation of DR.. Leslie E. Keeley's
Double Chloride of Gold remedies, for the
cure of the liquor, opium, morphine and
tobacco diseases and Neurasthenia, we warn
the public that these remedies are used by
NJ institution or sanitarium in the United
States except those established by QUIZ COM
pany under the uniform name of "The
Kelley Institute."
All others claiming to use our remedies
are frauds and imposters.
We have now sixty Kelley Institutes es-
tablished in various parts of the United
states where the Kelley treatment is ad-
ninistered and the Kelley remedies sold.
le, however, caution all to examine well
nj know thai they are dealing with genuine
| representatives, authorized by us, before
faking the treatment or purchasing remedies.
The fraudulent Establishments use the name
of "Bi-Chloride of Gold" or similar titles.
The newspapers do not discriminate sufi-
GENTLY to know that they are imitators, and
so put down all accidents occurring at such
establishments as being brought about by
the Kelley treatment. This is a matter Of
much concern to US, hence this warning.
Respectfully yours,
THE LESLIE E. KELLEY CO..
Curtis J. Judd, Sec'y and Treas.
The Kelley institute at Greensboro, n. c.,
is the only one in the state, and all repre-
sensations that there is in the state any cure
that is identical with, or the same as, the
Kelley Double Chloride of Gold Cure are
malicious, false, and made for the purpose OF
deceiving. We learn with indignant regret
that such claim is being made, and feeling
that if it be hurtful to us it will prove more
disastrous to those who are deceived thereby
we sound this warning.

LOFTY ATLANTIC WAVES.
Heavy Ocean Waters That Swept Over q
steamers Crows Nest.

Heavy Ocean Waters That swept over .
Steamers Crows Nest.
The New York daily papers all re-
corded the facts that the steamship
Majestic, on her eastern trip, caught a
sea that demolished her crow's-nest
lookout. and hat the Teutonic, which
caught the same gale coming west, had
one sea which combed over the crows
nest and carried away her forward port
lifeboat as it went over the rail. But
none Of the daily papers took the
trouble to mention just how the crows
nest on these ships is situated, and con-
sequently how high that sea was.
Inquiry by a Marine Journal repre-
sentative discovered that while in men
of-war and many other ships the Gus
tom is to have the crows nest in the
foretop or a trif1e above, the White Star
ships have it at an altitude of twenty
five feet above the main deck on the
foremost, reached by an iron ladder
from the forward hurricane deck. In
such a ship as the Majestic or Teutonic
the height Of the main deck at the fore
rigging is about forty feet above the
level Of the sea, which would make the
height of the a that carried away
the crows nest in this instance about
seventy feet. This is a pretty big roller
for the north Atlantic, but in other
parts of the ocean such waves are often
encountered in a storm. Supposing the
ship to have been in the trough of the
sea at the time this wave swept he,
the mean height Of the wave might be
calculated as not greater than forty
feet, but it was certainly a body Of
water nearly seventy feet high from
where the ship foated.

1t is computed hat all the locomo-

coupled together, make a train five
hundred miles long. The passenger

the same length, and if all the cars OF
every variety in the country were
coupled behind the engines, the result
