pot Is provided with a handle of more
than the average length. In connec-
tlon with the handle, in close reach of
the users hand, is small lever. By
grasping the latter and forcing 1t down
connecting rod raises the lid of the
pot, the lid being hinged to the edge
of the pot close to the handle. There
is absolutely no danger of burning the
fingers or hand. Another advantage is
the fact that any liquid In the pot can
also be drained of quickly and with
ease.

THE SUBJECT HIS LIFE STUDY

Of Hospital Authorities to Try Elk.
periments.-Says Watchers Don't See
souI's Flight 90 They Are Hypnotized.
The unheard of claim that he has
discovered a method by which he can
photograph the human soul was adj
vanced the other night by Henry Price,
retired professor of music, at Mount
Vernon, N. Y. Mr.. Price announced
that he Is actually seeking permission
to make experiments at Bellevue hos
pttal that will demonstrate the extraor-
binary scientific value of his discovery,
says the New York American.
Mr.. Price says he has made great
Roadway in his researches as a result
of the recent declaration by scientists
In Boston that they had been able to
weigh the human soul and had found
that it balanced the scales at q good
half ounce.
Mr. Price, who was for forty years
the baritone soloist of Trinity church,
New York, says he has made the sub
ject life study, and he is convinced
that the soul has a real existence and
that the reason 1t cannot be seen in
taking It's flight from the body is be-
cause those present at the time Of
death are invariably hypnotized. The
theory the soul really exists, Professor
Price says. Is borne out by the fact
that the body lightens Immediately
after death.
His plan is to photograph the soul as
1t departs from the body with a num-
Der of quick snapshots.
1t would be impossible, he says, to
hypnotic the camera, as 1t records
many things not visible to the naked
eye. In speaking of the subject the
other day Professor Price said:
II would like to have about a half
dozen scientific men in the room as
witnesses to the experiment, and
would also want a stop watch to re-
cord the transition"
"Have you formed any idea Of what
the soul looks likew asked a reporter.
II don't know what it looks like"
replied Mr.. Price, "but 1 am sure it
does not weigh more than dram"
"What In your opinion, becomes of
the soul after 1t has taken its flightr'
Mr.. Price was asked.
According to my belief" was the
reply, "the soul does not really take
its flight. 1t passes into another body,
but 1t has to be removed by some one
whom we will call an angel or an
agent of the Deity. The angel has to
remove 1t from the body while it is yet
warm and put 1t into another being.
If the person doesn't deserve another
life, then the Deity doesn't send for his
soul, and he is dead like a common
animal"
Professor Price was asked If he had
formed any idea regarding the organ
ism Of the soul.
Necessarily" replied he, 1.-THE or
ganism must be very small. 1t may
be like an oyster or a mollusk. We
cannot see Its organism, yet we know
1t has llfe''
Mr.. Price says all clergymen ought
to be interested In the success of his
experiments, because If the corporal
existence of the soul is proved it will
put an end to infdelity. AS yet the
authorities at Bellevue have not taken
up Professor Prices ideas.

glad that his wish was not granted,
for the two are now married, says a
Portland Qnd.) special dispatch to the
indianapolis News. Perseverance and
repeated declarations of his love for
his once promised bride won the day,
and the words were said by Justice
Cartwright at Pennville which finally
made the two discordant hearts beat
as one. This is what he said:
Barefooted I stand,
With the law in my hand.
These words pronounce: As a matter Of
course,
YOu are now man and wife. for better or
worse.
