SENSATIONS OF DROWNING.
he Experiences of Man Who Barely Es-
capped a Watery Grave.

When the water rushed into nv lungs
md stomach, it felt for all the world
ike a pleurisy pain, which has also
given me tussle in later years, but
was over in second, writes man who
was once nearly drowned. Then my
body settled quietly to the bottom, and
my arms fell limp by my side. In my
half conscious condition could see all
my relatives and acquaintance crowd
ing about me and looking down ON me
with fearful faces. All the events, it
seemed, Of my career passed slowly in
review, and the good, bad and indiffer-
ent acts stood out before me in bold re-
lief / knew 1 was drowning and re-
member thinking, why, this is not so
hard, after allr'
wondered where my body would be
found and shuddered at the thought that
it might never be found. / also Won
dered whether or not my companion had
become alarmed and run away and left
me TO my fate, or whether he was div
ing here and there TO find me- Then l
pictured my burial, and how the clods
would resound on my coffin when it was
lowered into the grave, and my fate
would be pointed out to other boys by
anxious mothers as a warning.
At the next stage l could hear bells
softly ringing in the distance, together
with little tinklings and chirrups sound
ing in my ears. Then 1 began to see
pretty pictures. The colors of the rain
bow danced before my eyes and inter-
mingled and formed into all sorts of
odd shapes. had no pain and no fear
of what was expected to follow. l seem
ed to be enchanted at the scene before
me. Everything was light and calm
and moved about without any visible
impelling force. 1t was like looking
into a large mirorr with every beautiful
thing that the most vivid imagination
could cOnjure up revealed thereby.
The last stage that l entered increas-
ed the beauty of the surroundings. All
discordant noises ceased a id We're super,
seeded by the softest. sweetest music that
could be thought of. Apparently l had
been transported TO place flooded with
bright, calm sunshine. 1t was neither
too hot nor too cold, but seemed like a
clear autumn day. Then seemed to
rise from the ground and float off into
space like thistle down. Higher and
higher l went until seemed to look
down on the world from a great height,
and then came blank.

the raft with my companion looking

What Did He Eat.

There comes a good story from Monte
Carlo, from that holy of holies, the sa-
Ion wherein are the trente ct quarante
tables Just as the cards were being
shuff1ed for the commencement of play
a gentleman deliberately counted out II
1000 franc notes and placed them ON
the black without even taking the pre-
caution Of insuring them. twas ''play
ing the limit, and a bystander remark
ed:
Rather bold play, sir. "
"Well, said the player, II dreamed
last night that saw this table exactly
as it is now, and on the first coup black
won.
The cards were dealt for the first coup,
and black won. A suppressed "Ohp'
from the bystanders greeted the an
nOuncement, Red loses," and then
from across the table came woman's
voice:
"What did you have for supper last
night? Do tell me!-New York Her

Strange Captivity.

The springbok of South Africa mi
CRATE in vast herds, moving in a COM
pact body and carrying everything be-
fore them. If flock of sheep be in the
line of march-as it sometimes happens
it is surrounded, enveloped and be-
comes, willingly or unwillingly, part of
the army. An African hunter tells the
strange story of seeing lion in the
midst of the antelopes, forced to join
the march. 1t is supposed that the lion
had sprung too far for his prey, that
those upon whom he alighted recoiled
sufficiently to allow him to reach the
ground, and then the pressure from both
1anks and the rear prevented him from
escaping from his strange captivity.
If the springbok travels in such ar
mics, how can those in the middle and
rear find food? In this wise: Those in
the front ranks, after they have eaten
greedily of the pasture, gradually fall
out of the ranks to rest, while the hun
CRY ones in the rear come up, and so the
columns are all the while changing.

Not an Inusual 81 -anSe.s

Certain physicians who are ardent
specialists are accused by their brethren
the general practitioners-with seeing
everything through the eyes of their
speciality and Of jumping TO conclusions.
This note from an aienist' or nervous
specialists" diagnosis Of a certain case
is cited:
The patient Q. is Of unsound mind;
suffers singular lapses Of the memory.
There is manifested, moreover, a curl
Gus correlation in these lapses between
ideas Of persons and ideas of money.
Thus it is noted that on several occa-
sions he has totally failed to recognize
his creditors when he has met them on
the street. t.-Youth's Companion.

The Natural Death.

The natural death is no utopian
dream. Both longevity and euthanasia
are within the reach of mankind. Not
q few have already secured both, while
many more may find them. 1 have seen
the man. He was old. He had neither
pain, anger nor sorrow. Finally his in
tellect began to lose its power. His am
bition changed to desire for repose.
His ideas of space, time and duty lin
gered for a moment, then passed away.
Step by step his powers waned. Hap
PLY, painlessly, carelessly the moments
flew. The merry sounds of youth at play
and the hum of the busy world only
rocked him gently to sleep. On and on
he passed until his intellect ceased and
consciousness was no more This is the
true euthanasia. 1t suggests no terror;
it inflicts no pain; it brings no agony.

BALLADE OF WORLDLY WEALTH.

Money taketh town and wall,
Fort and ramp without blow.
Money moves the merchants all
While the tides shall ebb and flow.
Money maketh evil show
Like the good and truth like lies.
These alone can ne'er bestow
Youth and health and paradise.
Money maketh festival,
Wine she buys and beds can strow.
Round the necks Of captains tall
Money wins them chains to throw,
Marches soldiers TO and fro,
Gaineth ladies with sweet eyes.
These alone can ne'er bestow
Youth and health and paradise.
Money wins the priest his stall.
Money miters buys, trow,
Red hats for the cardinal,
Abbeys for the novice low.
Money maketh sin as snow,
Place of penitence supplies.
These alone can ne'er bestow
Youth and health and paradise.
