A single month In jail for any
director of the Standard Oil Com

than a $l00.000,0O0 fine imposed

u year for those whose guilt i
established would make the STAN

REhAREAsLE Loss OF xEKoRY

Dr. Macnish in his book on "The Phi
losophy Of Sleep" gives the following
remarkable instance Of lost memory:
"a young American woman on awaken
ing from q protracted sleep lost memory
of ell she had before learned. Her mem.
ory was capacious and was stored with
a copious stock Of ideas. Unexpectedly
and without any forewarning she fell into
q profound sleep, which continued seSesA
hours beyond the ordinary term, On
waking she was discovered to haze losl
every trace of acquired knowledge: Hei
memory was a clean washed slate. All
yestiges both of words and things were
obliterated and gone. 1t was found nee
essary Tor her TO learn every thing again.
She even acquired by new efforts the arts
OF spelling, reading, writing and calcu.
lsting and gradually became acquainted
with the persons and objects around, like
. abeing for the first time brought into the
world. In these exercises she made con.
siderable proficiency. But after q few
months another fitof somnoIency invaded
her. On rousing from il she found her
self restored to the state she was in before
the first paroxysm, but was wholly ignor.
ant Of every event and occurrence that
had befallen her afterward.
