different from those OF Mr.. Ellis; but on the
whole the excitation Of the color sense was the
predominant feature All of the definite forms
that he perceived were grotesque and suggested

The time which elapsed from the first dose to
the last perceptible effect Of the drug was usu-
ally about twelve hours. one might lie down
and he was apt to feel sufficiently indolent
after little to do so-but the subject was not
sleepy, and he also found that he possessed a
certain amount Of Intellectual independence.
Mr. Ellis says
"Mescal intoxication may be described as
chiefly saturnaa Of the specific senses, and,
above all, orgy Of vision. large part Of its
charm lies in the halo Of beauty which it casts

Without knowing what the compositions to
which he listened were, Mr. Ellis nevertheless
found some resemblance between the images
suggested to his mind and the names given to
the music by the composers. Schumanns
Prophet Bird" called up feathery forms; "A
Flower Piece" provoked shapes Of vegetation,
and "Scheherazade' produced an effect Of float
ing white raiment.
The artist whom experiments were tried
had a weak heart. and experienced some un-
pleasant physical sensations He suffered slight
ly from nausea which was relieved when bis
cult was handed to him to eat; and at times he
felt severe pains in the neighborhood OF the
heart. He also reported an oppressive sense OF
sufocation, singing in the ears, hot eyes and
hands, and tremors But he emerged from the

reveals an optical faryland, where all the senses
now and then join the play but the mind ITSELF
remains sef-possessed spectator. Mescal In
toxication thus differs from the other artificial
paradises which drugs procure. Under the In
nue1ce Of alcohol, as in normal dreaming. the
intellect is impaired, though there may be
consciousness Of unusual brilliancs. Hasheesh,
again produces an uncomfortable tendency TO
movement and battles its victim in sea OF
emotion. The mescal drinker remains calm and
collected among the sensory turmoil around
him. His judgment is as clear as in the normal
state He falls into no Oriental condition OF
vague and voluptuous reverie. on this ground
it is not probable that its uses will easily de-
veop into habit"

Foreign residents of Spanish cities
are amazed to find that the relentless
butchers of Moriscoes, Lucayans,
Netherlanders, and Cuban insurgents
seem to be the most charitable people
on earth. The famished citizens of
Cadiz and Havana shared their pittance
with still poorer wretches. Without
poor-tax, Spanish communities of
5000 self-supporters feed pauper
population of 5000 to 1000. Public
hospitals are thronged with ministers
of mercy. Nor should we shrink from
the confession that in the land of Tor
quemada, minors are treated far more
kindly than in Puritanical Great Brit

History shows that the geologist,
that charming individual who would
dissect the earth as a surgeon dissects
the body, has had his troubles. In
Scotland he was looked on with suspi.
cion by the game wardens and often
arrested as poacher. And in Aus
tralia, on the contrary, the aborigines
considered them not poachers but
game, and bagged stray geologists
with glee. Even in Europe short
sighted chamois hunters sometimes
blazed away at them as chamois,
though fortunately without any seri-
Gus accidents. But these days are
past and the sacredness of the wan
dering geologist's person is assured

The Imagination of the general pub
lie has been so excited and indeed so
bejuggled by recent discoveries, es-
pecially in the field of electricity, that
any one who poses as scientific man
can make the most absurd statements
with the expectation of being believed.
1t must be irritating to the patient,
hard-working, scientific experimenter
to see his good work neglected. and
the laws of science absolutely ignored,
while the newspapers print and the
people swallow stories which mainly
illustrate the profigate use Of the sci
entific imagination, says the Christian

An English magazine complains that
machinery has not helped the writer,
while it has helped every other kind
OF man. The writer still has labori-
ously to grind out his thoughts by the
pen or pencil, or at best by the type
writer, which is only one remove from
them. The manufacturer turns out
his millions of articles where he for
merly turned out his tens, and his
wealth is increased in tremendous de-
gree. The manufacturer stands in his
Office, and almost beneath his eyes the
raw material is turned into the finished
product by the magic of machinery
"The ideal method of composition, I"
says the English magazine, "would be
the use of some machine into which the
operator could talk and have his spoken
word reproduced at once on paper as
the written word; but, unfortunately,
like printing photographs in colors,
each succeeding advance and discovery
in the world of invention seems to
make this hope more and more improb-
able"

When Oliver Wendell Holmes was
asked at what age we should be taught
The art of wise living, he promptly
answered, 'Two hundred years before
we are born" The truth of this is so
obvious that its gainssying is impossi-
BILE, says the Argonaut. Two b ,ndred
years would mean about six genera.
tions. The implanting of heredi-
tary tendency to right living would
produce, in single generation, both
an improved physical condition to
serve as a sound basis upon which
moral competency might be based, and
an upward moral tendency besides.
These tendencies, if kept active and
virile through six generations, with .
proper regard for wise admixture Of
bloods, would produce such a race as
the world has never known. The sixth
generation would have learned ite
lesson in right living two hundred
years before it was born.
