TEMPORARY ABSENCE OF SOUL.
Some of the Remarkable Experiences q
Psychical Investigators.

Some of the Remarkable Experiences Of
Psychical Investigators.
Ghostly experiences were the order of
the evening at recent meeting of the
Society For Psychical Research. Will
liam James Of Harvard university pre-
sided and said that it was well to receive
experiences narrated with judicial i'm
partiality as to the source and signifi-
canoe.
Secretary Richard Hodgson read ex-
tracts from a revised proof of f. W. II.
Wyer's second paper on ''The Expert
ences of W. Stanton Moses" One ex-
tract was as follows:
ION one occasion Mr.. Moses, while in
trance, got out of his body and stood
looking at it with no surprise whatever
at his singular situation. Suddenly he
became conscious of the presence of a
venerable, bearded prophet, who stood
beside him. The ghostly visitor was
clad in very bright blue garment. On
his head was q coronet, over which was
star. With the prophet as guide, he
left the apartment His first sensation
of surprise was caused by the ease with
which he pissed through the wall. The
pair traversed beautiful gardens till they
came to small cottage There M.
Moses saw his aged grandmother, much
idealized, but still looking as she did
during her earthly existence She tried
to speak to him, but his guide hurried
him away. He afterward received spir-
itual information that the interruption
was due to the unfavorable condition ex-
istin2 at the time.
Another communication contained the
following experience of Mrs. Connor,
who was also accustomed to leaving her
body:
cat hotel in New York, on one oc-
oasion, she made one of these extra
corporeal excursions. She could feel her
spirit passing out through her head.
She was whi,lsd about the room, several
times touching the walls. She hesitated
whether to pass through the roof or out
of the window, but finally chose the
window. She noticed that the sky was
very red. Finally she crawled back into
her body. When she awoke, the sky
wore the same red appearance she had
noticed while Oh her strange excursion.
Mrs. Connor conveys the gratifying as
surance that the passage from the body
was attended by no pain or discomfort,
but was much like putting ones arm in
q sleeve"
Still another experience was as fol-
lows:
"a private soldier in Kansas regi-
ment was once taken sick and reluctant
Iy went into a hospital, where he ap-
parently died. His friend, DR.. Chan
dler, despite the regimental surgeon s
ridicule, tried to restore him, and sue
ceeded, after pouring some ammonia
through his lips. The soldier stated that
all the while Dr.. Chandler was working
at his body his spirit was seated on the
mantelpiece, trying to decide whether
to return to the body or take it's final
departure from it. Noticing how anx-
ious DR.. Chandler seemed, he at last
determined to re-enter his body and did

Good Testimonial.
[From HaverhIIl y. H.. Conner /

81 have had for % years past, a
badly diseased ankle bone. DIR. David
Kennedy's Favorite Remedy and his
Salt Rheum Cream healed it when all
other medicines had failed, and medi-
cal authority had said the limb could
never be used again.
A sore broke out on the ankle bone,
and for 10 months the aged writer
suffered day and night beyond the
power of words to express. A friend
advised me to try DIR. David Ken
nedy's Favorite Remedy. / had no
faith that any medicine would help
me, but suffering as did thought |
would try it, and purchased some. al
so a box OF DIR. David Kennedy's Salt
Rheum Cream. l used these medi-
cines but short time when my limb
began to heal. | will further add,
among the many medicines | have
tried for diseased liver and kidneys,
none has ever proved so helpful to me
as Favoite Remedy. By stimulating
the enfeebled organs, even the en-
croachments of advanced age seem
to be checked by its invigorating
power.
| have thoroughly tested its true
worth, and know whereof affirm,
hoping all who read this will profit
thereby, as the aged writer has, by
using DIR. David Kennedy's Favorite
Remedy, been given very comfortable
health for a person 20 years of age.
Favorite Remedy is an invaluable
medicine for children as well as
adults.
This testimonial is given from my
own experience of these invaluable
medicines MRS. BELINDA HoDsoN,
Haverhill, N. H.
No tribute to the efficacy of medi-
cine could be greater than these
words of Mrs. Hodson. who volun-
tarily tells the story of her recovery.
Thousands of men and women whose
daily like is making severe draughts
on their vitality, need DIR. David Ken
nedy's Favorite Remedy None are
too old to be helped by it. 1t per-
manently cures dyspepsia, rheuma-
tism, kidney, liver and urinary troub
les, for the ills peculiar to women it
has no equal.

where Ignorance Is Really Bliss.

A correspondent from China writes: II
asked an innkeeper in the town OF Kotan-
Tish if he knew what country it was that
had dared to go to war against China. and
he dreamily replied that it was foreign
country somewhere near England. As a
matter of fact, there are thousands of in
terror towns and villages whose people
may never hear of the existing troubles
until some years hence, when some timer
ant missionary may speak Of the war in
conversation.

Women makes good jurors and to them we
wish briefly to sum up the evidence proving
superiority of Magic Dyes. to wit; They
color anything and everything and are easy
to use. Giverioh, fast cotors, which do not
crock or fade like most other brands. The
packages are larger than other 10 cent dyes
and color nearly double the goods.
Other brands require separate package
for cotton, while nearly all Magic colors
will dye cotton, WOOL silk etc, with same
package, making them far superior coloring
mixed goods. Furthermore, try them, fol-
low the simple directions and your verdict
after trial will be for Magic Dyes. Sold by

 New York, Dec, 29,-The Arctic club gave its second annual dinner last even ing at S6 West Washington Square. The proceedings were lively and inter estlng.

 The club is composed of men who have accompanied an Arctic expedition. There Were present members of the Kane, Greedy, Jeanette, and Cook Are tic expeditions.
 The speeches were chiefly interesting Arctic recollections and "reminiscences.
 Captain J. Wall Wilson, who went with the Kane expedition and was the sole survivor of that disastrous enter prise, thrilled his hearers with re- cital of the horrors and sufrerings of the members of the expedition.
 Other speakers were Professo or Brewer of Yale, Professor Wright of oberlin college, Professor Jillson of Pittsburg, H. L. Bmdgman of Pitts burg, H. Beidenbick, who accompanied the Greedy expedition; H. Smith of the Point Barrow expedition, E. Opertie, H. c. Walsh, secretary of the club, and James D. Dewell of New Haven.
 The majority of those present were members of Dr. Cooks expedition of 1894.
 Letters of regret were read by MT. Walsh from Lieutenant Peary, who had been called to Washington; General Greedy, Chief Engineer Melville and Colonel Glider.
 meInDef who received a large snare of attention from the older men was Carl Garrison, son of Justice Garrison of New Jersey. He is the youngest member of the club, He went with the Cook expedition when only thirteen years old, and stood the hardships Of the trip and the excessive rigors of the climate as well as any other mem Der of the party.
 A number of photographs of various expeditions, ships, tcebergs, and Eski- mos were arranged around the room. Curiosities of the northern tribes that the members had visited were also on exhibition.
 A fashlight photograph was taken of the dinner plble with the thirty mem bers and guests sitting round it.
