Narrating "Some Remarkable
Cases OF Double Pers )Dality," DR..
X. Osgood Mason cites, 10 the May
Ladies Home Journal, the case Of q
young ecclesiastic in the seminary
with the Archbishop -, OF Bor-
deaux, France, who was in the habit
oi getting up at night in a condition
OF ,omnambulisl, going to his study
and composing and writing his SER
mons in the dark. When he had
finished one page he read it over
and carefully and properly corrected
1T. A broad piece of cardboard in
terposed between his eyes and his
writing made no difference to him.
He wrote, read and corrected Just
the same as ifthere had been no OBJ
struction. Having completed his
work to his satisfaction he returned
to bed, and in the morning he had
not the slightest idea what he had
done 10 the night, and had no
knowledge Of it until he saw the
manuscript in his own handwrit-

Opposed Marrisge Settlements.

Just before Calhoun's marriage he
had a long talk with the legal coun-
sci OF his sweetheart's mother re-
garding Floride's marriage settle
ment, and directly thereafter, says
George Wolsey Symonds, in the
May Ladies' Home Journal, wrote
to his prospective mothsr-in-law on
the subject: "From prejudice or
reason, have always been opposed
to marriage settlements. l think
experience and reason prove them
to be unfriendly to the happiness OF
the marriage state; and they tend to
produce Iecuniary embarrassment.
In that state there should be one in
terest, one happiness and one des-
tiny. That eutire confidence, which
is reposed by female in the object
of her choice, in placing both her
honor and her property in his GUS

After the reading of the paper a
number of the "anti-jointists" ex-
horted Mr.. Powell to cease carrying
on his business in a manner objec-
tionable to the good citizens. He
had nothing to say and waited pa
tiently until the women had made
their departure. Though he vouch-
safed No answer, the pleading OF
the women had a visible effect upon
him and his manner toward them
was very respectful.
The drug store of Carl Showers,
At Clifford and Udell streets, was
next visited. He had evidently
heard of their coming, for when
Mrs. Clark asked for him she was
told that he was not about the
premises.
The same sceLes were enacted at

not present to hear, the protest was
read to the clerk and was received
with both cheers and jeers from the
crowd. A number of the women
struck up "Praise God from Whom
All Blessings Flow" and were as
sisted by the rest of the crusaders.
From this place the plucky band
of women proceeded to J. A. Fir
quin's store. He proved more
amenable to argument and exhorta
tion than any Of the other men.
He promised to quit selling liquors
and declared his intention Of getting
out Of the business entirely.
Mr.. Firquin was very much in
earnest, and seemed much affected.
After singing several hymns the
disciples OF Carrie Nation returned
to Mr.. Stower's store in the hope Of
finding him there, but they were
again disappointed.
The women then disbanded, the
