her choice would be able TO suggest a

The meeting between the lovers that
afternoon must have been satisfactory.
Tor Maud returned TO her fathers

She did not appear at the breakfast
table next morning, aud her maid. be-

that Miss Maud was not to be found
Inc room was untenanted and the bed
was made up as the maid had left it
the evening before.
MY uncle was almost frantic upon
nearing this intelligence. and rushed
nlhdly up stairs with a vain hope of
hndlng some clue 10 the mystery. But
hlas! IL was too true-Maud was gone
where, how or when, no one in the
mousse could tell, for SHE was seen go

ana further than this was not known
presume the reader has already
guessed the truth concerning Maud's
disappearance from her fathers home.
She eloped with her lover and was
married when they reached London.
As soon as my uncle discovered the

no bounds. He went about like mad.

scoundref who had thus thwarted
his hopes and disgraced his family

THE PAIN OF TooTHAcHE.
ft IL said That No one Can Recall
the Sensation.

It t. said That No one Can Recall
the Sensation.
II an ordinary person. who has at
some time in his career experienced
the miserles Of toothache. were asked
II he remembers the pain in question,
there is very little doubt as TO what
his response would be. Unquestion-
ably he would say he remembered II.
But this incautious admission might
lead at once 10 controversial difficult
ties. for II appears that psychologists
are in doubt as 10 whether any one
can. under any circumstances, remem-
Der a toothache or any other pain.
II seems desirable 10 follow this
statement al once with the assurance
that II Is not joke. Psychologists. as
a rule are not humorists, and they
have no thought Of being funny when
they assert that pains and other SEN
sationS cannot he remembered Those
Of them who hold this view are strict
ly In earnest. and mean exactly what
the words imply In their most sober
sense They are perfectly aware that
we commonly speak Of remembering
pains. and suppose that we do re-
member them. But they contend that
In such a case we remember not the
pain itself. but the IDEAS that were as
ISOLATED with the pain. We remember,
for example. that we were unable to
work because we had a toothache;
that we applied remedies 10 it unsuc-
cessfully; that finally we Went TO a
dentist and had the tooth extracted,
and at once gained relief All this we
remember very wildly, as every one
admits. But, II is said, we do not re-
tain in our minds the slightest trace
az the pain itself as a memory. or Of
the sensation Of relief that came when
the pain ceased.
To the person not accustomed TO
looking sharply into the darker cor
ners OF his own mind this will no
doubt seem very unnecessary split
ting OF hairs But the psychologists
do not so regard 1t. They are discuss
ing the matter pro and con with a
good deal OF vigor. this being indeed,

ICE WATER AND suSsTRokE.
The Patient Dropped Into an Icy
Bnth by MnchInery.


Now, that the sunstroke season Is
drawing near, the House Of Relief,
better known as the Hudson Street
hospital. is getting it's sunstroke ward
ready for action. This ward is as
complete, in point Of apparatus and
appliances as any similar institution
in the world, and from the time the
patient enters the room he is handled
by means Of electrical machinery more
gently than would be possible even
with the trained hands of the doctors
and nurses.
OF late treatment in sunstroke cases
has altered materially. The old treat
ment included warming drinks and
hot applications TO the body, with a
view TO drawing the heat from the
head, as well as iced applications 10
the head. Now the patient is i'm
mersed in very cold water and kept
so until the abnormal temperature de-
creased. Some remarkable cures have
been affected by this method of treat
ment. The new apparatus is designed
for the transfer of the patient TO the
bath. II is worked entirely by cleo
tricity. A sort Of hammock suspended,
not from the ends, but from the sides.
between iron bars. is the receptacle
for the sufferer. The end of this ham
mock at which the head lies is higher
than the other end. The bars are sus-
pended by chains from wheel-trucks
overhead running on tracks. and both
the motion backward and forward of
the trucks and the raising or depress-
ing Of the hammock by means OF the
chain are controlled by the electric
apparatus.
ON the entrance of the patient the
hammock is lowered and he is gently
slid from the stretcher into H. A turn
of the motor wheel lifts him. and an
other turn sends him moving along
until he is directly over the tub con
tanning water iced to the desired tenn
perature Then the machinery lowers
him slowly into the tub until only his
face remains above the water. Ice is
packed around his head. and he is
left there until his temperature is low
