From the days of Saul and David
music has no doubt been the means of
alternating, if not of actually curing,
many serious cases of mental disease.
Modern experience has proved this con-
clusively, and many instances may be
quoted from ancient history.
Pythagoras commended music in the
treatment Of the insane, and Thales,
when n pestilence ravaged Sparta,
found in music his most powerful
means of combating it. Henocrates
soothed maniacs by It, and Theophras-
tus held that even the bites of venom
GUS reptiles were rendered less fatal
by subjccting the victims to the influ-
.cnce of melody.
When Philip of Spain was in NOR
bid and Responding condition, Farinelli,
the vocalist, was sent for by the queen,
with party Of musicians, to sing and
play in the adjoining room. The eff
feet was n speedy and rapid cure.
Both Buchanan and Hafeland relate
instances in which music has cured
cases of st. Vitus' Dance and Becker
and Schneider demonstrated practical
ly its influence In different cases of
hysteria.

CaprOn the little four year old soil
of Capt. and Mrs. F. M. Payson was
dangerously burned last Wednesday
morning by his clothing catching
fire while he was standing in front
of the Fireplace.
The little fellow had come down
stairs in advance of the family and
was standing in his night clothes in
front of the fire place, with his back
to the fire. 1t is not certain how his
clothing caught, whether from a
spark or in getting too close to the
flame, but suddenly his parents
heard his screams, and rushed down
stairs to see the little fellow writhing
in agony, his clothing blazing up his
entire back from his feet to his head.
Mrs. Payson had the presence of
mind to seize the child and throw
him to the floor while she stretched
herself out upon him, smothering
the flames. In doing this Mrs. Pay
son was herself badly burned.
The little boys body was a mass of
burned flesh from his feet to his
neck, and hiS-suiferings We're intense
DR.. Spague was hastily summoned
and did all that he could for the lit
tie sufferer. At present he is resting
easier and will recover, Had the
flames burned the front part OF his
body instead of his back, it is doubt
full if the little fellow would have re-
covered. And had it not been that
'the fire was so quickly put out his
death must necessarily have resulted
anyway.
The sympathy of the entire CON-
munity goes out TO the distressed
parents and relatives, as well as to
the little sufferer, who is one of the
most happy dispositioued and popu-
lar children In town.

Painful Accident.


e. V. Lundberg, superintendent of
the Mccormick & Hubs grove prop
critics, was the victim of an accident
last week, which while serious, is
not going to prove as dangerous as
was at first supposed.
Mr.. Lundberg was heating some
sulphate of copperas, better known
as blue vitrol, ina jug on the kitchen
stove. After the jug had been on
the stove some time Mr.. Lundberg
stepped up to it and lifted the cork
Then there was an explosion,
the vitrol flying to the ceiling, and a
lot of it striking him in the face and
eyes. DR.. Sprague was called and
dressed the wounds, and he states
that Mr.. Lundberg will not suffer
greater Inconvenience than the re
sulting pain and n detention from
business for about two weeks. Had
the full force of he eXplo ion stuck
him it is more than likely he would
have lost his eve sight and been per-
manently disilgured.

The st. Louis Globe Democrot in It's
issue OF Monday, pays the following
tribute to the popular hostess of the
New Mexico building at the Worlds
Fair:
Mrs. Sallie Hume Douglas, who made
such an enviable record as hostess of
the New Mexico building at the Worlds
Fair, is not a native of that state, but
is proud to acknowledge Missouri as
her birthplace. The reputation she at
tanned in receiving visitors illustrated
the natural ability inherited by the
women of Missouri for entertaining
their guests. She was one Of the few
hostesses publicly congratulated by
President Francis for her popularity at
the celebration of state day.
Mrs. Douglas was born in Columbia,
Mo-, and lived there until she was sew
enteen years Of age. She went with
her family to Las Vegas, N. NJ, and
has since remained in that city. AS
president of the Normal university
alumnae association Of Las Vegas, and
a prominent choir singer in two Of the
leading churches there, she is one of
the social leaders of the town.
