Mind Reading.

| Paul Alexander tombstone of st.
Paul gave an exhibition of the so
called mind reading powers at Opera
Hall on Wednesday evening. Mr..
tombstone is the same man who pass
ed several days in the cave in the
Black Hills hunting fora small object,
the reason for the delay in finding it
being that the guide lost his way
The exhibition here was interesting
especially as showing popularity of
mind and temperament not common.
perhaps fortunately, to mankind.
The reason for his acts is simply not
applicable in the present state of
science. 1t resembles more than any
thing else a voluntary hypnotism in
which the operator yields himself i'm
plicitly to the leadings of another
mind.
The first test was in the afternoon.
A committee of gentlemen had
been selected, five in number. Three
of the committee started from the
Gladstone Hotel in carriage, drove
Oyera route selected as they went and
then bid small object in the Office of
DR.. Ashley. On returning to the
hotel Mr.. tombstone took the arm of
one of the committee, rushed down
stairs, leaped into the carriage and
drove at rapid speed over the route and
reaching the doctors Office in few
minutes picked out the object from a
number of others i'm the same drawer.
The mind reader was very late in COM
mencing in the evening, the exercises
not commencing until nearly nine
o'clock. A short lecture preceded the
more interesting work after which
Mr.. tombstone requested that one of
the committee would borrow a small
pin from some lady present, take it TO
the stage, make pin hole in the
scenery and mark the spot, the
performer being at this time out of
sight behind the scenes. As soon as
the pin hole had been made Mr.. John
stone came upon the stage blindfold-
ed, took the arm of the party who hid
the pin, rushed down the aisles of the
hall, found where it had been placed,
returned TO the stage, found the hole
in the scenery and then, still blind
folded, returned the pin to the lady
from whom it had been borrowed.
Each test tried presented different
form of trial of the powers of the
professor but each was successful at
the last, although in some instances
considerable time was expended be-
fore desired result was obtained.
The exhibition was certainly re-
markable showing how completely a
person whose mind presents the par
ticular susceptibility required can
yield himself to the thoughts and
will of another That it is a phase of
hypnotism seems very probable but
this explanation is little more than
simply using one word to define
another each of which needs explana-
tion TO be understood by the nearer.
The exhibition was under the
auspices of the q. A. II. and it is to be
regretted that the society was not re-
warded for its efforts in procuring so
unique an entertainment by larger
audience.

Strange but True.

1t may seem strange, but it is new
ertheless true, that alcohol regularly
applied to the thrifty farmers stom-
ach will remove the boards from the
fences, let the cattle into his crops,
kill his fruit trees, mortgage his farm
and SOW his fields with wild oats and
thistles. 1t will take the paint off
his buildings break the glass out of
the windows and FIJI them with rags.
1t will take the gloss from his man
ners, subdue his reason, arouse his
passions, bring sorrow and disgrace
upon his family, and topple him into
drunkard's grave. 1t will do this
to the artisan and the capitalist, the
matron and maiden, as we'll as to the
farmer, for in its deadly enmity to the
human race alcohol is no respecter Of
persons.

Economy in Good Farm Buildings.

Good farming implies warm shelters
for stock in inclement weather.
Warm stables prevent loss Of flesh and
vitality from cold or wet weather and
at the same time enable the farmer to
effect the greatest possible saving of
animal excrements for manure. The
increased amount and value Of the
weddings of sheltered animals will pay
large interest on the cost of the
buildings. The saving in feed requir-
ed for maintenance will go far toward
paying rent on the structures. Good
economy requires that the farm build
ings be built of sound, substantial,
durable materials, and that they be
well built. Then the cost of repairs
will be reduced to a minimum. The
farmers dwelling should also be well
built of the best materials, and so con-
veniently arranged as to make the
homework as light as possible. This
is question of economy as we'll as a
question of justice to the weaker sex
who are part of the working force of
the farm. The farmers dwelling
should be well lighted, well ventilated
and we'll severed, so as to preserve
the health and efficiency of its inmates,
and the idea of beauty should have
full effect in the location and archi-
lecture of the farm dwellings and all
of its environments, including its orna-
mental grounds, kitchen and fruit gar
den and Standardization Agri-
cult,ui8t.

Feeding Wheat to Mich Cows.

It is claimed that many Pennsyl-
yania farmers are holding old wheat
for higher prices. Also that the pres
ent price of sixty-fve cents per bushel
is ruinous because farmers should re-
ceive from ninety cents to 81 per
bushel to make wheat growing pay.
And again that wheat, oats and corn
are about on a par, or worth, say, one
cent per pound. These conditions, it
is averred, have induced the farmers
to "chop" their wheat for feed. That
word "chop" is misleading, perhaps,
because it does not mean cut up, in
and with the straw, but having it
ground coarse. 1t would do the stock
more good and be in better shape for
assimilation either for flesh or milk,
to have it ground almost as fine as
-four.
Wheat contains more starch IN
proportion to bulk than corn. If one
splits a kernel of corn lengthwlse, he
can, with naked eye, see fair picture
of the elements, to wit Starch, oil and
phosphate or the chit The more oil
the more fattening, while both starch
and oil favor the production of rich
milk as well as to increase the guam
tity. Taking the three grains men
toned in equal quantities, it would
constitute very rich ration and should
be carefully given. There would be
tendency to sickness or surfeit
among the cattle until they had be-
come used to it. If green food could
be given it would in a measure coun-
teract that tendency by keeping the
bowels Loose. Give salt regularly, at
least once day. Give water freely,
and if the excrements are "redolent"
with sourness decrease the rations I'M
mediately or withhold the grain en-
tirely There is not 50 much danger
with swine if fed little and often If
cattle bloat, the skillful use of the trocar
is often the best and safest cure.-&.
