ticians are said to attain to q concep-
ton Of Q fourth dimension, and it IL

rudimentary and mysterious faculty
Of perception, which il distinct from
the familiar i've, says the London
Globe. According to DR.. laval, the
blind Partisan physician, it is the de-
velopment Of this latent sixth sense
which serves to compensate the blind
for their loss of sight even more than
an increased alertness ofhearing and
of touch. The seat of this rudimentary
sense Is in the head; to some Of its
possessors 1t appears more definitely
in the forehead, while others localize
1t in the interior of the ear. It's pos

of vibration or pressure upon the ear
or brain. Many persons possess this
sensitiveness without knowing it to be
at all exceptional; but with most Of
them it is not strong enough to save
in the dark, except when they
move slowly and carefully. Could it
only be developed to a practical degree
there would be fewer shins scarified in
midnight passages.

II has long been popular belief.
SAYS the Cosmopolitan. especially
since the invention
of phrenology.
OF he""S' that the size and
shape of the head are intimately re-
lated to the intellectual capacity.
Almost everybody is accustomed to
form dogmatic judgments of men
based upon this poStulate. But the
results of statistical investigation
make it appear very doubtful wheth-
er the belief in question rests upon
u sound foundation. The conclusion
is that there exists. in the general
population, very insignificant corela-
tion between ability and either the
rize or the shape of the head Very
brilliant men may have slightly
iargrr head than the average, but
the increase is so small that no
weight can be laid on it in our judg-
ment of ability. This is in accord
with the results of other attempts
to amply scientific test to the as
sun,ptions of phrenology.

the runners can be made OF 2X4 inch
stuff. with the front ends hewed off so
as to run over obstacles. A 2-inch
plank should be bolted on the front end
with notch cut in to hitch to- the rest
Of the top may be made of inch boa rds
nailed across the boat. To cut corn
wing should be hinged on each side
slanting out and backward. We use an
old saw for these wings or knives. cut

and using a small box for seat. il
takes two persons, one for each row.
cutting two rows at once. Ne start
| the shock by hand. cutting two rows
that the shocks are on, leaving four
hills for each shock, and allow ten
hills wide by five long. We tie with a
rope with a ring fastened to one end
of the rope; one draws the top of the
shock up while the other ties with
stalks, putting two bands around
each shock. In heavy corn five hills
makes an armful which makes two
armfuls for each side of shock. II the
corn is light one should carry ten hills
which makes one armful for each side

fodder keeps better in large shocks
than in small ones. We pull the shock

Should he do so, Q failure to relish
his vacation would be certain from
the very beginning. Therefore, first
and foremost. the most convenient
season is the best season for q holi-
day. AS for the time of year most
suitable, it is natural and satisfac-
tory that there should be diversity
of opinions. Lazy loafing in the
summer time has. its undeniable
charms. A surrender to 'spring few
er" when comes the early vernal
tempting to idleness is delightful.
The bracing and exhilarating atmos-
phere of autumn is a tonic keenly
grateful to many. Even winter has
its attractions as a holiday season,
especially if one can afford flight
from January's rigors in harsh cli-
mate to the softer airs of some
southern resort. The main thing
is to choose the convenient moment.
With this done, it's a mighty dull
soul that cannot enjoy holiday,
knowing that there is no neglect of
duty involved in the taking of rest.

Drainage Under the Barn.

Drainage is a thing that is frequent
ly neglected in the construction of
stable. The plot Of ground under the
barn is permitted to accumulate mois-
ture and to lose none of it except
through overflow. This wet ground
under the stable is fruitful source
Of development for certain germs.
The ground should he so well drained
that the ground under the stable will
be always dry. Moreover the barn
ward should he thoroughly drained,
not only by digging n ditch to carry
off the surface water, but also by tile
drains laid three feet under the
ground and quite close. The result
of such drains is to render the ground
porous and enable the liquids to pass

In connection with an article in the
Sun of recent date relating an incl

tain, Georgia, in 1864, when Col. w. 81.
Martin, of the First Arkansas regi-.
ment, gave the order to his men to
stop firing, and hoisted white hand
kerchief on stick that the federals
in his front might remove some of
their wounded men from burning
woods, Mrs. Susan B. Hull, of No. 1920
Cathedral street, recounts an interest
ing bit of history, says the Baltimore
Sun.
The First Arkansas regiment was
composed largely of students of St.
Johns college, at Little Rock, and was
Differed by the professors and in
structors of the college. The first
colonel of the regiment was Mrs. Hull's
brother, Col. John Baker Thomps on,
who had been president of the col
lege, and who afterwards. fell at the
battle of Shiloh. The First Arkan-

ings, not even aware of the words she
has chosen, her eyes turned upward
with rapt expression, while all who
hear her are dominated and thrilled
by the power and sweetness of her
music. In the wards of the hospital
the sick listen as if they were hear
ing celestial singing, and to those
who are not fatally ill, it brings
strength and repose, like an electric
current. Physicians have declared
the effect to be hypnotic, and have
themselves listened spellbound to the
inspired strains.
The singer does not improvise
words or music, but uses the familiar
hymns, Nearer, My God, to Thee"
and Zone Sweetly Solemn Thought"
or others as popular and we'll known.
Her voice is sympathetic contralto
of great sweetness, and she had il
cultivated in her youth for choir sing.

In her home in Carthage, Miss, she
first gave up fashionable pursuits and
found her happiness in smoot thing the
way to another life by her magnetism
of song. The knowledge that her
voice would have made her famous
among the worlds vocaEsts has never
disturbed this singularly gifted wom-
an; she gave it free to the helpless.
Mrs. Schworz has charming per-
sonality and is highly esteemed by
her friends as the possessor of many
Christian virtues. Only two other
women have essayed the role in which
she is so proficient, Mrs. Augusta Ev-
ans Wilson, the southern novelist, and
Emma Abbot, who a few days before
her own death sung "The Last Rose

only the fortitude and unselfshness
of those brave singers that enables
them to reach that high climax On
the borders of another world.
