octagonal, each side of the octagon being
gabled. Tho booth is trimmed with

Curious and Uncomfortable Experience

floor to get the lay Of things and get 'em
fixed in my mind so as rot to stumble

chair and hanging down from it a pair of
trousers legs. Then of course, knew
there was a man in the bed, and that 1t
was his clothes that were stacked up on
tho chair there. ! shut off my light and
started l knew the way, and wentvery
quietly, but when i got about half way
across tho room tic man in tho bed began
to hollcr.

very loud, though lie was trying to hard,
but he was SO scared that 1 was surprised
to hear him holler at all 1t sounded as

breath. l was afraid he'd scare himself

Fate In It's Honest Old Aec,

1t Has . History and Deserves . Better
Fate In Its Honest old Age.
Daniel Webster's old yellow wagon now
stands in dreary spot on Pettis plain in
Greenfield. II IL could speak, It could tall
an interesting story.
Once the family wagon OF the great
statesman, then to be finally sold for
bull terrier and allowed to stand on o
dreary plain, filed with snow in winter
and to be used as the roosting place Of tur-
keys tells In a single sentence some of the
mutations Of fortune that have come to
the old carriage. Notwithstanding the
hard luck that has come to 1t In its old
age, 1t still retains evidence that it was
honestly and faithfully mado and IL ca
pable of doing still further service.
1t was made for Daniel Webster some
where in New Hampshire about 1898 or
1880. 1t was taken to Marshfleld when
the great statesman was at the zenith of
power and reputation. 1t was frequently
used by Mr.. Webster and members Of his
family. 1t was then that the name of
yellow wagon" was given 1t supposedly
because 1t was painted yellow. Years aft
er Mr.. Wehsters death 1t was found stored
away on some beams in an old shed. 1t
was sold to Willard Houghton Of Hough-
order and used 1t.
Something like dozen years ago there
was craze for old wagons In Franklin
county, and the Webster wagon was pur-
chased by George 4. G. Holden, now Of
Hudson and we'll known landlord, and
who was then residing in Greenfield. Tho
old wagon was made to look as well as
possible, and it excited much interest It
was used by Mr.. Holden for pleasure driv-
ing and was shown ut various times when
collections of antiquities were exhibited.
In time Mr.. Holden disposed Of his liv-
cry business to Thomas Minis, now of Ath-
OIL and the old wagon went with the re-
maindcr of the stock. Mr. Minis had no
use for the old wagon and traded 1t one
day to Henry $. Wood, receiving in return
bull terrier dog. The dog was named
Daniel Webster and is still alive and own
cd by tho Minis family in Greenfield. Mr..
Wood used the old wagon until he tired
Of it and then allowed 1t TO stand out of
doors on Pettis' plain. 1t now has for
company several broken down carriages,
and the turkeys that roam over tho plain
use it as n roasting place at night.
One or two boards are missing from tho
bottom Of the body, but otherwise than
this 1t Is capable of rendering excellent
service for many years to come. The axles
arc entirely Of wood, and all the iron work
is hand made. Tie springs are of woo
and are attached to the body by leather
straps.-Boston Globe.

CONCERNING INSANITY.
Some OF the NIote Popular Fallacies on tho
Subject Exposed.


Subject Exposed.
At the meeting of the Science club DIR.
+. B, Wynn read an interesting paper ON
Popular Fallacies Concerning Insanity"
Tho paper WAS written in a popular vein,
devoid of tGchnicalitics, and was enjoyed.
DIR. Wynn spoke from an experience oil
about six years in the hospitals at logans-
port, Ind, AMI Dayton, o. Ho treated
humorously thb exaggerated idens of in
sanity entertained by most inexperienced
persons and reeitCd incidents of shcrfffs
bringing weak and emaeiated persons to
hospitals in heavy manacles. Tho general
idea that the insane person Is possessed
of horCulean strength, with wild glaring
eyes, was shown to he in most eases false.
The appearance Of the lunntic generally
does not differ materially from that Of
those not considered insane Under acute
mnniacal excl ement the power Of endnr-
ancG does seem greater than normal. Tho
degree Of waste, however, is just as great.
That the patients often die of physical ex-
ertion indicutts that the power of endur-
ance is more apparent than real. The pro-
portion of violent mud deInonstratiyo pa.
tionts found in usylums day after day will
not exceed one to 100 hundred population.
Insanity does not causc as much suffer
ing On the part of the individual as Is
commonly supposed, as an acute attack IL
generally supervened by what might be
termed an exaggerated phlegmatio state.

that poultry has been known to sell for
