A Modern Desdeniona.

The London papers are printing the
story of an English girl, Clara Casey
who married a Moorish acrobat, Mo
manned ben Bulkhassen. and who
now, in far off Tangier. signs for bel
Albion home as follows:
81 wish l were in England again.
am quite miserable and lonely here.
and it makes me feel it more when
see how Mr.. Abdullah treats his vile
and the way Mohammed treats me.
There is a great difference. He is
always hitting me, and he laughs at
me now he has got me here, and tells
me l will never see you again; that !
shall live and die here.
Dear mother, ! hope and trust to
God I will. soon be able to return to
England again. What a fool have
been to give myself to this man."
So far the intervention of the Brit
ish Vice-Consul has led to nothing, for
Miss Casey had previously become q
convert to Islam, and she stated that
she had the approval Of her parents.

THE STORY OF THE BRAIN.
What the Cells of Ones "Thinkery"
Really Are.

Really Are.
The story of the brain as scientists
have gradually unfolded its peculiar
construction is of marvellous interest.
This pulpy, and, apparently homogene'
Gus mass is revealed to us as the most
highly and specialized and vitaliZed or.
gan in the human body. 1t consists OF
hundreds of millions of separate II
Independent organisms, once known as
~nerve-cells, but now called "neurones."
These units of the brain are independ'
ent bodies and consist of a cell body,
it's axis and it's branches. The cell
body contains within its covering mem
brane elements which generate the
nerve force or energy; the axis is
the nerve or medium which conveys
that communication of the neurones
with each other and with the organs
and tissues to which the nerve is dis
tributed. The life history of these NIL
croscopical bodies is the same as the
cells of other organs and tissues
They are implanted before birth, and
many remain dormant for a lifetime
if unused; if stimulated to activity they
enlarge through more abundant nutri'
ton, but waste and atrophy when the
stimulation is removed; they are under
going constant changes through the
process of nutrition, and from the in
Vulnerable impressions made upon them
by objects within and without the
body.-Leslie's Monthly.

Red Wing Owns a Theatre.

The first practical step toward the
establishment of an endowed theatre
in this country has been taken by the
little town of Red Wing, Mimi, boast

The theatre, which cost $4,000, was
the gift of the late Theodore B. Shell
don, q citizen of Red Wing, who had
accumulated wealth by wise invest
ments in real estate. On his death it
was found that he had made a gift
of a theatre to his city. In the be-
quest it was stipulated that the new
playhouse should not be used for gain,
either private or public. but should be
so managed us to become an educa-
tional factor in the community.
There are no free admissions, and

last night"
Fleetwood, at my summons, came to
my side, and l put my hand i'll the
breast pocket of my coat for the list
I had written. I drew it out, with
something sofia lady's handkerchief,
from which foated the faint perfume

hand, wondering how it could have got

fell from my hand, and fluttered to the
ground, and before l had time to Stoop
and pick it up Mile. Rosalia darted for

into her pocket.
Thank yon," she said, softly: "tlank
you so much!'
She tripped away, and Fleetwood,
taking the list which I mechanically
held out to him, walked thouGhtfully
from the garden, lis head bent upon
his breast.
It was this incident Of Mile. Rosalie's
handkerchief which caused me so much

whatever Of placing it there.

Stonewnll Jackson's Looks.

His form was tall, gaunt and angu-
lar. His feet and hands were large,
and his walk was singularly ungrace-
full. He always spoke quickly, in
short sentences devoid of ornament,
but to the point. A habit of bat
ting his eyes added no little to the
popularity of his appearance. His
eyes were gray and ordinarily dull
and cXpressionless; but when cXcit-
ed by drill, which always seemed to
arouso him. especially when charges
were fired, the whole man would
change, Us if he were transported by
the 0 a of the guns to the exciting

behaved thirteen Years.

Postmaster Coyne's men began the
rapid delivery of mail matter which
should have reached its destination in
Chicago, ILL.,, thirteen years ago. While
workmen making interior changes in
the Rookery Building, north of the La
Sale street entrance. they found n
mass Of mail which had slipped down
behind the mail box between the brick
and the marble. Most of the mail was
newspapers and circulars, which prob
ably had been piled on the box, al
though there were some letters i'll the
lot. The papers were dated 1892. The
mail was tied into q bundle and sent to
the postofice at great speed.

Electric Power to Plows.

The Societa Elettrotecnia 1taliaDa OF
Turin has invented and constructed de-
vices for the application of electric
power to plows and other farm machin.
cry. writes Consul Cueno from Turin,
Italy. The experiment of blowing by
electric power was recently made near
this city in the presence of representa-
tive men from different parts of Italy,
and, it is reported, with gratifying
success.
The device consists of two power
cars, which are stationed at each side
Of the field, and between which are
stretched cables attached to the plow.
The electric current is taken from a
trolley line; Il current of about 800
volts is said to be needed. Each car
is said to communicate twenty-five
horsepower, which car safely be in
creased to forty horsepower. The
plow is pulled by the cables from n
side of the field to the rther, and when
it reaches the end oe the furrow it
stops automatically, the current being
cut off. 1t can be run backward or
forward With ease. One man manages
the plow, and each car is operated by
one man. Thus three men do all the
work.
OF course, much deperE.s on the con-
dition of the soil, bnt it is said that
from seven to fifteen acres can be
plowed in twelve hours. These DOWer
cars are said to be US easily managed
as traction engines. and their power

Moral Tone Changed.

Governor J. Frank Hanly, of Indiana.
has caused a great change in the moral
tone of the State. He has made it a
rule that no man who drinks shall be
appointed to Office, and his appointees
have extended the rule to those whom
they in turn choose. An important
rule in line with the Governors policy
is that in all cities having boards OF
metropolitan police commissioners no
man who drinks shall be or the police
or detective force; that no officer shall
enter q saloon either when off OF on
duty, except to make an arrest, and
that no member of the fire department
shall enter a saloon.

The probable Importance of the odors
of disease as an aid to prompt dag
nosis is urged by Dr.. Charles Ander-
son, a California physician. Many OF
the smells are already known as char
acteristic, while others are more un-
certain. Measles, it is said, sometimes
has a decided picked-goose smell, ty-
phoid fever and castro enteritis a
mousy oder, typhoid fever a peculiar
fetid odor, continent smallpox the odor
of rotten onions, and acute rheumatism
q disagreeable sour smell. The nau-
seating smells of gangrene and pyemia
are happily unfamiliar in these days
of antiseptic surgery.
