HAIR RAISING FRfeHTs.

Is the "Standing End" Sensation Real
or an Imaginary One?
Asa general rule unscientific opinions
on scientific subject are of but little
value to the student and the investiga-
tor. Yet to be permitted to ask such
questions appears to relieve one to GER
tain extent, even though the answer be
far from satisfactory.
There is a variety of opinions among
the authorities concerning the subject OF
the hair standing ON end" in time OF
extreme fright, some of which are tena-
BILE and altogether probable, others ridic-
ulous in the extreme. The notion, If no
ton it be, that the hair occasionally
raises and lifts the hat is of extreme an
tiauity. In the oldest book i'll the Bible
Job iv. 14-15) l find the following:
Fear came upon me and trembling,
which made all my bones to shake. Then
q spirit passed before my face The hair
of my flesh stood up.
Do you remember what Virgil says
about his hero in the celebrated vox fau-
cibus hoeset passage? read from Con-
ington's translation:
While thus in agony pressed
From house to house the endless quest,
The pale, sad specter of my wife
Confronts me larger than in life.
stood appalled,, my hair erect,
And fear my tongue tied utteranees
checked.
Macbeth relates his experience as fol-
lows:
Why do yi1ld to that suggestion
Whose horrid image doth unfx my hair?
And again in Hamlet we read:
could a tale unfold whose lightest words
Would harrow up thy soul, freeze thy young
blood,
Make thy two eyes, like stars, start from their
spheres,
Thy knotted and combined locks to part
And each particular hair to stand on end,
Like quilts upon the fretful porcupine.
Similar instances of chair raising"
being mentioned in literature could be
multiplied, but the above are sufficient,
even without scientific confederation, to
prove that the phenomenon is not freak
of the imagination.
One of the authorities before me gives
this opinion: 'Plainly stated, the hair
raising notion is without substantial
basis. In short, the sensation is only an
imaginary one "
Hildreth says, "In such cases the hair
actually stands erect, a result of sud
den contraction of the follicles "
Wilson's Normal Condition of the
Hair and Skin" says, 'The phenomena
of hair standing erect in cases of extreme
terror cannot satisfactorily be explain

Didn't Like the Notice.

The author of Lorna Doone" has
decided repugnance to anything that
sayors of personal advertisement. Only
one portrait of him, that which appears
in the cheap edition of his novels, has
ever been taken, and it was with the
greatest difficulty that he could be in
duced to sit for that Not very long ago
an enterprising bookstall keeper in the
district where Mr.. Blackmore lives
pasted up a notice announcing "a new
story by our local novelist" Mr.. Black
more, SO the tale goes, happened to pass
soon afterward and saw the placard. He
was furious and ordered it to be at once
pulled down. There was certainly some
justification for Mr.. Blackmore's action,
for, whatever else he is, he cannot be
correctly described as "local novel

THE SYBARITE.

A bed of roses where the sunlight falls;
A glimpse of purple grapes on southwark
walls,
And far, white Thurii through the leaves Of
trees.
A sense of rest where yet no duty calls.
A single wave that laps the idle beach;
A shining lizard darling out of reach;
A breath of wind through odorous banks OF
flowers;
A thought of peace, and yet too slow for
speech.
dial where the pointed shadow creeps
From hour to hour of ease a day that keeps
Its beauty through the night; night that
comes
With dew and stars-a hush-a world that
sleeps. ~. 1,u.au

before twelve the vice president him
self walks in from his room behind the

Rev. DIR. Milburn, "the blind man elo-
quent," led by the smallest of all the
pages, who conducts him at Mr.. Stew
enson's request, not as formerly to the
clerks desk, but to the vice presidents
own place, while the vice president
modestly takes his station at the side
Of his desk on a level with the clerks
desk, and the other officers of the SEN

desk. The vice president takes up the
little white ivory barrel, which serves
him for a gavel, brings it down with a
light tap on his green-covered desk
and softly says: "The chaplain will
offer prayer" At this word every SEN
ator in the chamber rises to mis- feet
and bows his head, if he does not close
his eyes, in what seems to be a rever-
ential attitude, and remains thus while
the blind chaplain, in his musical and
sonorous voice, and always original
style, invokes the Divine blessing.

are also number of circulars signed by
Mr. Beatty urging men to vote against

the purpose of the order is to prevent

prising statement that Roman Catholics

chat two. fiftas OF our standing army are

they have arms concealed. If not IN their

The pity of it is that thousands of jig

We ere bound to suppose that Mr.. BEATTY
believes it, and yet he tells us that h'

VEGETATION ON THE MOON.
Luna May Yet Prove to BE a Coo
Potato Field.


Chicago, Sept. 2S.--Before a company
|of twenty-five or more friends and
neighbors, who met at his residence
last night, Louis Gathman exhibited a
model of his sectional lens telescope
He also answered the objections made
by Astronomers Hale and Burnham to
his announcement that he had discoy-
cred what seemed to be signs of veg
citation on the moon.
In answer to The objection that as
tronomers with excellent telescopes
had never seen a green spot on the
moon, Mr.. Gathman said:
There can be but two reasons for
this fact. First no first-class tele-
scopes were in use for making obser-
vations the night 1. saw the spot. Sec
ond, if observations were made the
telescopes were inferior to mine"
Mr.. Gathman said his section lens
had been examined by Professor Col
bert, who said it was excellent and
would prove of great interest to the
whole scientific world. Many eminent
foreigners had pronounced the section
al lens instrument superior to any in
strument of the same size. "a twenty
inch built up lens" Mr.. Gathman said.
with clear glass of even density, will
be equal in power to any telescope that
has q forty inch solid lens
He then spoke of his observation OF
green spot on the moon. About
o'clock in the evening of August u, in
sweeping with my telescope over the
face Of the moon, I saw a spot of vivid
