Proven by photogra phy.

A recent Ohio lawsuit, involving tho
ownership of one thousand five hun
dred acres of valuable real estate, was
settled by the aid of photography The
turning point of the suit was as to
whether an old deed, executed seventy
five years ago, had five signatures or
only four. There were spaces for five,
but only traces of four were visible.
The clerk of the court was ordered to
have the deed photographed by an ex-
pert. He took it to Washington for
that purpose. The negative developed
some evidence of the missing sigma
ture, but on enlarging it ten times the
whole name came forth distinctly.

Many years ago the rumor gained
circulation in some circles that certain
doctors had found pictures in the eyes
of deceased men, which proved to be
the images of persons and things that
they had last looked at before dying;
and, further, that these doctors had
utilized their knowledge so as to help to
discover murderer by post mortem
examination of the eyes of the mur-
dered person. Nothing seems to have
come out of these rumors, except a
vague idea in the minds of reading
people that the eye of a dead man re-
tains the image of the last thing looked
at. The idea has been settled as an er-
roneous one. The retina becomes of n
pale white color soon after death. and
the pellucid fluid in the cornea, which
does not eXude in the living state, but
is constantly absorbed and renewed,
oozes out gradually after or n short
time before death, and forms that OBJ
scure film before the cornea which de-
stroys its transparency.

TREATMENT OF OBESITY.
A Patient Loses Exactly Fifty Pounds In
Six Months

Patient Loses Exactly Fifty Pounds In
Six Months.
Savill gives an account of his treat
ment of obesity that presents some
features of special interest A man s
feet 10 inches in height and weighing
2s4 pounds was admitted to the Pad
dipgton infrmary to be treated for an
ulcer. This patient, 6s years of age,
was unable to walk, chiefly by reason
of his bulk. He was put upon a diet
of one pound of cooked fish and one
pound of lean, cooked meat O day and
pint of hot water slipped at intervals
every two hours. The fish and the
meat were distributed in meals, &C.
cording to the taste of the patient, but
no bread, vegetables, milk or any other
article of food was allowed. The pa
tient was person of intelligence and
did everything toward the success of
his treatment, managing to drink five
or six pints of hot water during the
day. Weight decreased steadily. On
admission, September 81, it was 2s4
pounds; on October it was 274 pounds;
on November Is it was 256 pounds, and
on December it was 24615 pounds At
Christmas there was some latitude
given in diet and the result was n
prompt addition to his weight of seven
pounds, but by January Is weight was
reduced to 23o pounds. After four
months treatment the diet was modi-
fed by the addition of two small slices
of bread and butter at breakfast and
supper and milk and sugar in his tea
night and morning.
On February Z he returned to ordi-
nary meat diet such as other pa
tients had, with the exception of
potatoes He then weighd pal pounds.
Weight increased slightly for time
after rcsuming ordinary dict; but on
March 21, when the patient left, he
weighed 21oM pounds, having lost over
so pounds in six months. The ulcer
healed within four weeks of his admis-
sion, and pain and stiffness soon disap-
peared, permitting as much walking as
the space in the ward would allow.

A Sufficient Reason,

The admission of a stranger, who had
moved into the vicinity but recently,
into full membership in the church
bothered Deacon johnson very much.
He disliked the man, and felt quite con-
vinced he was not worthy to become a
member, but he could make no definite
charge against him. When the church
session had the mans application under
consideration, the deacon protested
against his admission. When pressed
to give his reasons, he said: oval, pah-

William King came before them for ex-

ing two distinct pulsations, which
could easily be felt, he had wonderful
control over his double life engine, be-
ing able to stop its beating for sixty

his hands clasping each other in n fren-
zied manner.
Calmly resting, apparently In quiet
repose, lies the friend who so recently
fell on sleep. The handsome face is
composed, and wears a smile, the
heavy silllen mustache covers the smil-
ing lips, and the white, blue-veined
lids fall naturally over the well-known
kindly eyes
Tom Wrayton looks at him rever-
emily. Then he takes from his travel

several tiny bottles, and placing them
in an evidently prearranged manner,
proceeds by the aid of the minute di-
rections given on that memorable
night-which seems SO long ago-to
adjust the apparatus with rcvereSt
fingers upon the cold clay before him.
Though more than life is at stake,
he is coolly professional, knowing that
weakness now would spoil all.
But the calm face often hides deep
emotion, and the suffering of those
few minutes was to Tom Wrayton an
eternity of anguish.
After all his arrangements are com
plete,a strange eerie feeling creeps over
him, and he hesitates to add that sin

of his friend.

of his battery and SO completes tho

gazes on the quiet face before him.
Then he waits few seconds, and once
more applies the wonderful power.
Quietly, dimly, as the first pale
streaks of dawn flash athwart the
eastern sky, a change comes over the
sleeping countenance before him. 1t
is as if some master hand had breathed
into the sculptured stone and made it
live.
The white shroud of death gives
place slowly to the tinge of crimson
ing life. All this time Tom Wrayton
stands with set face, gazing upon his
friend
Does one thought of what might be,

Does one single wish to leave his

No, no, from that manly, honest
