We're the finest stock in Western Penn

were bloo'led stock and We're being de-
veloped for speed. The fire occurred
about 5 O'Clock and had gained such
headway that nothing could be saved.
Two men were sleeping in the building,
and one only escaped by jumping out of
window. The other man, Harvey
Hartman, ran out of the door, but was
badly burned in doing so. The only theory
as to the origin is that it was set on fire.
Tracks of two men were followed
through field and around barn. Who
they We're is not known. There was no
heating apparatus in the building. The

1t is quite wonderful what devel-
Opment in art taste ill small things is
bridged between the Philadelphia cen
tennial exposition Of 1876 and the Chi
cago worlds fair of 1893. In furniture,
in jewelry, in carpets, in pottery, in
architecture and in all that goes to or
nament and decorate and make life
more elegant this country seehls to
have absorbed the art ideas Of the
world so far as applied to manufac-
lures. The things one sees in the shops
and windows nowadays, even the veri-
est trifes, are rs different from the
things of generation ago as if they
belonged to some remotely distant era.
Take, for example, some objects as
the ornaments of a writing desk or a
toilet table even of moderate price,
as in their beautiful forms and silver
sheen they are to be seen daily, and
contrast them with the ink bottles,
the pens, the brushes, the blotters.
and bottles of Il dozen or more years
ago. 1t is simply the difference be-
tween the beauty and ugliness, the con-
trast between taste and tawlriness.-

says that modern investigators accept
the theory of the metaphySicians, and
believe that there is II certain amount
of cerebral action during the whole
period of sleep. and that the vast ma
iority of our dreams never come to

is an unbroken current of ideas which
passes through the sleeping brain, and
which only reveals itself 10 the con-

DR.. Robinsom's article is lcng and in

arrives are rs follows: Owing to the
unceasing llnconrious ccreblation Which
is Il necessary concomitant of our power
of intellect. the brain is always in part
awake, and is especially active in shift
ing memoriZcd matter. The cerebral
centers connected with the sense or
gans are continually and independent
ly employed in stimulating impressions
from without. Certain Of the senses,
especially that of hearing. remain open
TO external influences during sleep and
convey actual vibrations to the brain.
There is an active and purely involun-
tary prcdisposition OH the part of the
mental apparatus to compare and col
late all the messages which come, or
seem to come. from without. through
the sense channels: and to collatc these
again with what is brought 10 the con-
sciousness 10y involuntary recollection.
Associated with this is Il tendency to
combine the evidence so collected into
a coherent whole. and to make the re-
suit of either explain the more emphatic
thoughts or impressions, or else answer
some questions which occupied the at
