feel justified in saying that death by
hanging is the most exaggerated of all
modes. 1t may be immediate and
without symptoms, but the subjcct
must pass through three stages before
death.
''In the first stage the victim passes
into Il partial StupOr lasting from
thirty seconds to two minutes. but this
is generally governed by the length of
the drop. the weight of the body. and
the tightness of the construction
There is absolutely no pain in this
stage; the feeling is rather one Of
pleasure. The subjective symptoms
described are intense heat in the
head. brilliant flashes of light in the
eyes, deafening sounds in the ears
and Il heavy, numb feeling in the
lungs. In the second stage. the sub
iect passes into unconsciousncss. and
convulSions usually occur. In the
third state all is quiet except the beat
ing of the heart Just before death
the agitation is renewed. but in diff
ferent way from that IN the second
state. The feet are raised. the tongue
has a peculiar spasm, the chest heavcs
the eyes protrude. from the orbits and
oscilatc from side to side, and the
pupils dilatc. The pulse can. in most
cases, be felt ten minutes after the
drop.
II once knew a man who was de-
Sirous of ascertaining if there was any
suffering by hanging. and in order to
find out he placed rope around his
neck and stepped off bench. intcnd-
ing to step back again, but he be-
came Immediately unconscious. and
would have died in few minutes had
it not been for the timely arrival OF
Il friend He said he experienced all
the feelings that l mentioned in the
first stage."-St. Louis Globe-DemO-

S"thins But Snow Covers the Peak Where
the Ark Was Monred.

Mount Ararat has two tops Il fcw
hundred yards apart, sloping. on the
a>trrn and western eXtremtirs. into
"ihrr prominent abutments. and sep
ira!cd by Il snow valley. or depression.
from fifty to one hundred feet in
depth.
IN" eastern top, on which we We're
Stlnlng. was quite extensive. and
thlr,y 10 forty feet lower than its
western ne ghbor. Both tops are hum
hIckS on the huge dome of Ararat
like the humps on the back of Il camel
on neither one of which is there Il vCS-
tigr of anything but snow
There remained just as little trace
of the crosses left by Parrot and
thodZko as of the ark itself We re-
Mciibcre | the pictures we had seen
III our nursery books. which represent
Ell th'S mountain top covered with
green grass. and Noah stepping out of
the ark. in the br. ght warm sunshine,
before the receding waves; ana now
we looked around and saw tbs very
spot covered with perpetual SNOW Nor
lid we see any evidence whatever of
Former existing crater. except per-
hhpS the snow filled depression we
have just mentioned. There was no
thing about this perpetual snow-f field
and the freezing atmosphere that was
chilling us to the bone to remind lis
that we were on the top of an extinct
volcano that once tremblcd with the
commissions of the subterrancan heat.
The view of this towering height
WAS immcasurably extensive and al
most too great All detail was lost
all color, all outline; even the sur
rounding mountains seemed to be but
rNcreSccnt ridges of the plain. Then
too. we could catch only occasional
"fmpses as the clouds shifted to and
fro. At one time they opened up be-
Meath lis. and revealed the AraS Val
ey with its glittering ribbon of silver
AT an abysmal depth below. Now and
then we could deScry the black vol

He Taught a Lesson.

An object lesson often is the most
effective way to impress Il truth upon
IN audience. A local temperance lee
turer who recently started upon Il
little missionary tour through the
wilds of Southern Indiana had Il pc
ruliar experience the other night while
demonstrating the terrible effects of
alcohol upon the human system. He
had magic lantern which threw
upon screen a drop of drinking water
magniticd so many times that the
lnimalculae were plainly seen. SWIM
ming about, wriggling. twisting. fight
ing and swarming all over an illumin-
atcd circle several feet in diameter.
After explaining that these monsters
could be found i'll any drop of ordin-
airy drinking water the lecturer pro-
crcdcd:
But now | want to show you. my
dear hearers. the deadly effects of al
cohol upon animal life | shall add to
this magnitied drop of water a drop
Of common whiSllcy. and you will OBJ
serve that it Immediately kills every
living thing it touches. Not one of
these little organisms which you now
see swimming about full of life will
I've an instant after | add the WhiSkry
70 the water. il which. as you see.
they live and thrive. Now then! Sce?'
Here he added Il trace of whiSkcy
and every animalculae kicked its last
and became a candidate for burial
as dead as Caesar.
Just at this juncture an old man in
the middle of the audience. who cvi-
IDENTIFY had taken Il deep interest in
the experiment. arose for Information.
Say" he calculated. ''do you mean
to say that all our drinkin' water is
chuck full of them there wigglin'
things
Eyes sir
And Il little whiskey kills contest
n'rhcrly knocks the everlastin' spots
right of 'em?"
As you have seen for yourself. sir.

instantly destructive of animal life
Then by jingo. you'll never catch
