Ran Just n Week.


Ran Just a week
The French have a fashion OF ex-
pressing an Indefinite but short period
of time by the phrase about eight
days. Under similar conditions we
would say about a week" The
French method seems unnatural, ours
natural. for n week Is distinctly rec
cgnized period. we believe there Is
only one way IN which we use the
EIGHT day. period. and that IS in making
clocks.
Did 1t ever occur to you why we
have what is called an eight day clock
aud not one made to run exactly seven
days? There is good reason for It.
\ clock that Is made to run eight days
is pretty sure to he wound on GER
tain day of the week. for it would be
almost impossible for any one to re-
member to wind It on every eighth day.
Therefore the interval between wind
ings Is seven days. precisely as the
maker desired ard expected.
The reason IS that n clock runs bet
ter when Il Is not allowed to run down,
or even nairiy so. The same plan is
followed in making Il watch; twill run
for thirty !;.ia=s. but as nearly every
man winds 4; Vl,ch ut the same hour

The Theory OF Sensation After the

HaIf dozen physicians were talking
of death. 1t Isn't a subject usually
chosen by physicians for discussion, but
these were discussing It. However, it
was not altogether physical death
They were including the hereafter.
well" said one, II don't know
whether there Is to be hereafter or
not, and it doesn't trouble me very
much, because III take chances on it If
I can make the life live before 1t the
kind of lie n man ought to live. But
there Is one thing about It that makes
me hope there will be another life, and
that IS the opportunity 1 shall have OF
asking some OF the people who have
had their heads cut on II there was any
sensation for a few minutes succeeding
decapitatIon. 1 believe now that there
is, and that life remains long enough
for the decapitated person to realize
that he has lost his head, or, rather,
that he has lost his body, because the
head is the center OF thought, and, Of
course. 1t Is the body that is lost, not
the head At least that IS the way
man with his head on would be bound
TO think OF it 1 fancy there IS no pain,
because that would require some time,
and II life exists at all after decaplta-
ton 1t would not be long enough to
realize the sensation OF pain. 1t must
be very queer sort of feeling, and, as
I say, hope there is a life hereafter
