Myster,ous Ways of Warts.

"The more i study into the question Of
warts, said a well known physician, "the
more convinced am that there Is but lit
tie known of them. 1t Is surprising what
few references are made to warts by the
standard writer's. In many Of tho leading
books on surgery there Is no mention at
all OF warts, and as result physicians are
almost as much In the dark about them as
others. To tell the truth, have got more
information from old nurses about waits
than ever did from my medical or sur
gical lectures or from my reading. Hun
dreds and hundreds Of times patients have
asked me how to get rid Of warts, and my
answer has generally been to let them
alone and that they would 60 away as
mysteriously rs they came. or course I
could cut them of or burn them of with
caustic or nitric acid, but my experience
jics been that two OF three came back for
every one so removed.
Some ttmo ago was visiting the wife
of southern senator, who had two grand
children With her. One Of the grandchil-
dren had big wart oil ssil,e end Of the fore
finger of the right hand, and, OF course,
hit 1t every time the child touched any
thing. was asked II could do anything

II alone and that In short time 1t would
disappear. This, however, was but little
comfort TO the lady, who said the child, o
little boy Of years, was, she thought, In
constant pain from 1t. then told her that
II sho wished the wart from the little fell
low and on herself 1t would likely change
places, and that 1t would be necessary for
her to wish very hard to make n sure
transfer. l had forgotten all about 1t till
ono day sonc months after, when visited
the lady again. Strange as 1t may sound,
the wart had left the grandchild's finger
and was on her own and giving hers great
deal Of pain too. Washington Star.

TIE INDIAN JueGLER.


A correspondent, writing from India TO
eariing the theory that tho jugglcrs per-
form their tricks by Twill powcr," says:
"During the course of the indian mutiny
made the acqklintance Of ono of these
gentlemen Of India, who tried TO instruct
me how to perform these tricks. He said
Il was all imaginary on the part Of the
spectators, as ho simply willod that they
should SEQ those things. Yet j, in common
with western nations, was too animalizcd,
sensual and matcriGlized by flesh eating
and consumption of alcohol TO retain or
sccept any deep spiritual teaching.
"Ihc most exciting performance that
he gave for my amusement was the con-
vertirg of bamboo stick into a native
servant, who waited at table and supplied
our wants.
,p, and to my surprise tho same man was
before me asking for instructions. di-
ected him 90 fill the chatties In the ye-
sanda with water from tho well In the
compound. This he proceeded to do. When
ae had filled them all to oyerflowing, re-
auested him 10 stop. He, however, took
no notice Of me, and went on stolidly
bringing in the water, until, in my excited

Finding that could not arrest or stop
bis movements, he passing through me as
though i did not exist, drew my sword
and lay In wait for him. Making slash,
apparently cut him in twain, when, 10!
there were two men bringing in the wa
ter, neither of whom could 1 restrain OF
prevent from doing 80.
81 was completely out Of my depth, when
heard a quiet laugh behind me, and on
turning / found 1t was my instructor,
who held up his right hand, and the two
men disappeared, the stick resuming Its
place In the veranda, and to crown all
there was not the slightest sign of any wa
ter having been brought in. l excitedly
appealed to him for an explanation. He
said that he had been present all tho time,
having willed that he should be invisible
to mo and that should imagine myself
to see and do what thought had taken
place.
"In order to prove It, he asked me to
step out into tho compound and directed
my attention to huge cavern, which
knew was not there before. AS entered
u number Of huge elephants and camels
issued from it in continuous stream, yet
i could not touch one of them. They ap-
parently passed over me as though did
not exist. He again raised his hand, and
the cavern and apimals disappeared, and
there was no indication of any exodus Of
any kind. Scottish Nights.

zhs Care Exercised by the Justices In
Forming Their Opinions.


Eseh justice Is furnished with printed
copy Of the record and with copy of each
brief filed, and each one examines the REQ
ords and briefs at his chambers before the
case is taken up for consideration. The
cases are thoroughly discussed in confer
ence, the discussion in some being neces-
sarily more extended than in others. The
discussion being concludcd-and 1t Is new
er concluded until each member of the
court has said Ill that he desires to say
the roll is called, and each juror present
and participating in the decision votes to
affirm, reverse or modify, as his examina-
tion and reflection suggest. The chief
justice, after the conference, and without
consulting his brethren, distributes the
cases SO decided for opinions. No justice
knows at the time he votes In particular
case that he will be asked to become the
organ of the court In that case, nor does
any member of the court ask that par
ticular case be assigned to him.
The next stop Is in the preparation of
an opinion by the justice to whom 1t has
been assigned. The opinion, when pre-
pared, Is privately printed, and a copy
placed in the hands Of each member of the
court for examination and criticism. 1t
Is examined by each justice and returned
to the author with such criticisms and
objections as are deemed necessary. II
these objections are Of serious kind, af-
fecting the general trend Of tho opinion,
the writer calls the attention Of the JUS
tices to them, that they may be passed up
on. The author adopts such suggestions of
mere form as meet his views. II objec-
tions are made to which the writer does
not agree, they arc considered in confer
ence and are sustained or overruled, as the
majority may determine. The opinion Is
reprinted, so as to express the final con-
clusions of tho court, and Is then fled.
y When you find an opinion of the
court on file and published, the profession
have the right to take 1t as expressing the
deliberate views Of the court, based upon
a careful examination Of the records and

SALMON CULTURE.
Mysterious Failure Of the Effort TO Stock
the Atlantic Coast Streams.

the Atlantic Coast Streams.
An interesting review Of salmon fish
conditions in this country Is made in a re-
port of the United States fish commission
on artificial propagation of salmon on the
Pacific coast. The conclusion reached il
that although nature evidently has de-
signed that the quinnat salmon shall not
take up it's abode on tho American shores
of the Atlantic its breeding serves a legiti-
mate and valuable purpose in maintaining
the supply of its species in its native wa.
ters on the Pacific slope This Ia made ap.
parent by the enormous drafts on these
fish by the canneries.
The report says the Battle Creek sta
ton of the California state commission
may soon pass into the charge of the Unit.

place for collecting quinnat salmon eggs
known. 1t is said 10000, 900 salmon eggs
can be taken on Battle creek In six weeks

tention of the commission to increase the

Ing its depleted salmon rivers. 4Nter mil

that salmon were going to become abun.

many believed that several southern riv

great effect the weather conditions have on
crime. There Is q larger proportion Of
crime In the hot months than In the very

inducement for crime In the winter. From

Prof. r. Ogden Doremus, Of the College
of the City of New York, is authority for
the statement that there is no excuse for
such fires as the recent ffightful disaster
at Paris. For many centuries science has
known Of a simple and effective way OF
preventing them, and only the indifference
OF the public TO their own safety has kept
laws from being enacted to compel the
adoption Of scientific methods of proven
ton. Professor Doremus has been deeply
interested in the subject ever since the
loss OF young son by a dress taking fire.
He experimental with all the prominent
chemicals aud found that phosphate of
ammonia surp ssed them all for rendering
materials uuinhammable. His children g
clothing, after washing and starching,
were henceforlh dipped in this solution
and a similar accident was impossible. la
his laboratory the professor showed a re
potter piece Of limsy material that had
been so treated which refused to burn
when held in the gas flame. Thin pieces
OF wood were also rendered uniniiamma-
BILE. "But there are many other chemical
substances less expensive than phosphate
of ammonia which are quite as effective,
said the Professor. In tho "llistorie de
la Chime ct da la Physique, by Hoefer,
he says that Homer relates that in the Tro-
jan wars wooden posts were constructed
and coated with alum. The enemy re-
peatedly tried to set fire to them, but in
