light wire of the company. and the re-
markable defence of the corporation that
Frankel received no shock, but during his
long stay in the hospital he has suffered
only from the effects of self-imposed hyp-
notic suggestion that he was hurt.
Frankel is a salesman and he charges
that during storm he was struck by
falling arc light wire in Broadway and Sc
riously injured. He was taken to the gem
eral hospital at the time and was a pa
tient there for three months. He dis
played all the symptoms which usually fol-
low shock. Charles L. Cuthbert, witness.
swore that Frankel fell without touching
the wire. Physicians told the remarkable
effects of tests of Frankel's peculiar ner-
vous constitution. DR.. Todd put cold wa
ter on Frankel's arm. telling him that it
was a powerful acid and would burn.
Frankel displayed all the symptoms of
great pain. When the doctor bathed
Frankel's arm in hot and cold water alter
nately Frankel believed that hot was cold
and cold hot, as the doctor told him.

Limit of a Deer's Life.

Romance has played prominent
part with regard to longevity of deer.
What says the Highland adage:
Thrice the age of dog is that of
horse. Thrice the age of a horse is
that of man. Thrice the age of a
man is that of a deer Thrice the age
of a deer is that of an eagle Thrice the
age of an eagle is that of an oak tree"
This is to assign the deer a period of
more than 200 years, and the estimate
is supported by many highly circum-
stantial stories. thus, Captain Nc
Donald of Tulloet. who died in 1776,
aged Sc years, rs said to have known
the white hind of Loeb Treig for fifty
years, his father for like period be-
fore him land his grandfather for sixty
years BEFORE him. So, in 1926, Macdon-
aid of Glengarry is reported to have
killed stag which bore a mark on
the left ear identical with that made

be noted, are told in countries on the
continent of Europe, where deer are
to be found in any number. But alas!
the general opinion among experts
would seem to he that thirty years or
Whereabouts is the limit of a deer's life.
