Electricity or Sour Milk
New Claims for Both Having Remarkable Power in Preserving
the Youth of the Body by Preventing Arterial Decay

A not unimportant part of the medi-
cal faculty of Paris has placed itself
on record as saying that there is only
one remedy against the alarming in
crease of premature deaths among ap-
parentiy healthy young and middle
aged persons of both sexes, and that
this remedy's name is electricity
Electricity, these French doctors de-
clare, is the only specific capable of
renewing youth. The decay Of youth,
as is well known, really arises from a
hardening of the blood vessels, and to
such an extent that circulation is i'm
peded and congestion of the arteries
takes place. What is facetiously
known as chat tired feeling" fire.
quently amounts in full-grown adults
to nothing else than the fact that the
"pipe-stem artery has begun to make
it's appearance, and that the organic
centers of the body are not properly
supplied with their due provisioning
of blood and viscous matter.
Just consider the artery. 1t is
much like an ordinary rubber tube.
More than the tube, however, it is
susceptible of taking on a hard coat
ing, which when formed, becomes
part of the artery itself. AS a re-
suit, then, of pressure exerted upon
any given hardened artery, the latter;
is liable to crack, even as an ordinary
clay pipe This condition of the ar
terial system is fraught with an en-
during menace to the subject so af
fected, since it is we'll known that
once a rupture occurs in a main ar
terry, say the jugular, and bubble OF.
air travels to the heart, life is over
for the person so stricken.
In the case Of elderly persons this
hardening of the arterial system is
more or less normal. In the case of
young people it is less easily eXplic
able though in all probability it is due
either to early hardship, insuficiency
of food, dram drinking or the prac
tice of boiling" ones meals. In any
case hardening of the arteries is
nothing more than the decay of the
body or the approach of death, and
some medical scientists now declare
that electricity is the counteractive
which is demonstrabIy capable of re-
those affected by pipe
stem arteries or, in other words,
of staving off their demise

She, went without hesitation to his
side, and he put his arm in hers. He
had not only lost much blood, but had,
been bruised and severely shaken, and
was not certain Of his steps. Barbara
was afraid, in crossing the hall, lest
he should fall on the stone floor. Sae
disengaged his hand, put her arm
about his waist, babe him lean on her
shoulder How strong she seemed!
Can you get on now?' she asked,
looking up. His deep eyes met her.

answered.
She flushed scarlet.
4 dislike such speeches. she said;
and disengaged herself from him.
Whilst her arm was about him her
hand had felt the beating of his heart.
She conducted him to bench in the
garden near a bed Of stocks, where
the bees we're busy.

CHAPTER VIII.
Bah.

AS Jasper recovered he saw less OF
the sisters. June had come, and with Il
lovely weather, and with the lovely
weather the haysel The air was
sweet about the house with the fra
GRANGE of hay, and the soft summer
breath waited the pollen and fine
strands on it's wings into the court and
in at the windows of the house. Hay
harvest was a busy time, especially
FOR Barbara Jordan. She engaged ex-
ira hands, and saw that cake was
baked and beer brewed for the harves-
tiers. Mr.. Jordan had become as
years passed, more absCracted from
the cares of the farm, and more
STEPPED in his fantastic semi-scientific
pursuits. AS his eldest daughter put
her strong shoulder to the wheel of
business, Mr.. Jordan edged his from
under it and left the whole pressure
upon her. Consequently Barbara was
very much engaged. All that was
necessary to be done for the GONZALES
cent was done, quietly and consider
y tOuSIu0TdUIy
to himself. Neither Barbara nor Eve
had the leisure, even if they had the
inclination, to sit in his room and en-
terrain him with conversation. Eve
brought Jasper fresh flowers every
morning, and by snatches sang TO him.
The little par1our opened out of the
room he occupied, and in it was her
harpsicord, an old instrument, with,
out must tone, but it served to accom-
pany her clear fresh voice. In the
evening she and Barbara sang duets.
The elder sister had good alto voice
that contrasted we'll with the MARBLE
of her sisters soprano.
Mr.. Jordan came periodically into
The sick room, and saluted his guest
in a shy, reserved manner, asked how
he progressed, made some common re-
mark about the weather, fidgeted
with the backs of the chairs or the
brim of his hat, and went away. He
was tiInid man with strangers,
man who lived in his own thoughts,
man with a frightened, far-off look in
his eyes. He was ungainly in his
through nervousness. He
made no friends, he had acquain-
tances only.
His peculiar circumstances, the
connection with Ewes mother, his
natural reserve, had kept him apart
from the gentlefolks around. His re-
serve had deepened of late, and his
shyness had become painful to himself
and to those with whom he spoke.
AS Eve grew up, and her beauty
was observed, the neighbors pitied
the two girls, condemned through no
fault of their own TO a life of social

Inventor of the treatment which is to
cure old age and prevent premature
| death, applies the electric current IN
somewhat unusual way The patient
| is placed in what looks like needle
bath, where, if he wishes, he may
smoke or read. current adapted to
his physical condition is turned on,
and, though his body coruscates with
blue spark fire, he is conscious of no
bodily suffering. About half an hour
| is the duration of the ordinary bath.
The usual treatment is of six baths,
after which the patient goes forth
with rejuvenated system.
Warranted to endure? All, here in
deed is the rub! 1t is only fair to say
that Professor Metchnikoff disagrees
to a large extent with this electric
treatment of pipestem artery, or ar
Iterio-sclerosis, as the savants have it.
His method is known TO be the sour
milk treatment.
The hardening of the arteries, &C
cording to Metchinkoff, is due in the
first instance to the coating of the
walls of the channels, itself due to
minute hard substances to be found
in the uric acid, which we all carry
in our system in q more or less de-
gree. If the hardening OF the artery
walls be not due to the uric acid de-
posts it may arise from the stimulat-
ng Of energy by intoxicants, or by
the drinking of too much mineral
water.
The homeopathic idea enters into
the Metchinkovian treatment. The
Russian argues that the acids of his
sour milk wholly neutralizes the
artery deposits due to other causes,
and that the essential fatty matter In
the milk provides a permanent recon
structton of the worn tissues of the
arteries. His objection to the cleo
tricaI treatment is based on his con-
viction that, while the coating of the
artery walls may be affected, there
remains nothing to rebuild the tubu-
lar tissue. The result is at best, he
declares, but temporary remedy
when the clearing is affected. A
time must come, however, when the
exhausted artery walls will refuse to
recreate and thus make certain disso-
luton the matter of a short time.
It is worthy of note that Metchni-
koff's sour milk theory has strong
supporter in Thomas A. Edison, the
greatest living electrician.

When Hypnotsed Tramps Meet
Death.

A No. 1, the well known tramp,
states that riding upon the truck
beams, between the wheels OF "a flying
passenger train, OF even of slower
going freight train, is extremely diff
cult. The flying cinders deluge the
ewes and at times makes breathing al
most impossible. More than this, he
saws that unless one strictly watches
himself one is in danger of becoming
hypnotized The rhythmically pound
ing wheels, jolting over the joints Of
the rails, a way of insistently COM
handing attention that is extremely
dangerous. This noise, sharp and re-
peated with devilish persistence, can
hypnotic the unwary, he says. Often
he has had to use every resource of
will power which he had in order to
ward off the effects of this endless
and mind-compelling .click, click,
click" He believes that many tramp
who has fallen to his death from the
trucks has been first hypnotized in
this way. This is perfectly sound
psychology and the probability OF
such hypnotism will be endorsed by
any good specialist in this science.

exclusion. Of Barbara everyone spoke
WELL as an excellent manager and
thrifty housekeeper, kind of heart, in
all things reliable. Of Eve everyone
spoke as beauty. Some little infor-
NAL conclaYes had been held in the
ineighborhood, and one good lady had
said to the Cloberrys, If you Will
call, so will L. So the Cloberrys OF
| Bradstone, as leading county family,
/ had taken The initiative and called.
AS the Cloberry family coach drove up
to the gate of MorwelI Mr.. Jordan was
all but caught, but he had the pres
ence of mind to slip behind laurel
bush, that concealed his BODY, whilst
exposing his legs. There he remained
motionless, believing himself unseen,
| I'll the carriage drove away. After
the Cloberrys had called other visi-
tors arrived and the girls received in
vitations to tea, which they gladly &C
cepted. Mr.. Jordan sent his card by
his daughters should go into society,
calls in person, and the neighbors
were relieved not to see him. That
affair of seventeen years ago was not
forgiven.
Mr.. Jordan was well pleased that
his daughters should go into siciety,
or rather that his daughter Eve should
be received and admired. with Bar
the daily cares of the estate, and these
worried him. To Eve, and to her
alone, he opened out, and spoke of
things that lived within, in his mind,
to her alone did he exhibit tenderness.
Barbara was shut ont from his heart;
she felt the exclusion, but did not re,
sent the preference shown to Eve.
That was natural, il was Ewes. due,
for Eve was so beautiful, so bright, so
perfect a little fairy. But, though
Barbara did not grudge her young sis
ter the love that was given to her,
she felt an ache in her heart, and re-
greet that the fathers love was not so
full that it could embrace and envelop
both
One day, wnen the afternoon sun
was streaming into the hall, Barbara
crossed it, and came 10 the GONZALES
cents room.
Come, she said, my father and |
think you had better sit outside the
house; we are carrying the hay, and
it may amuse you to watch the
wagons. The sweet air will do you
good. You must be weary of confne
ment in this little room
How can I be weary where l am SO
kindly treated!-where all speaks to
me of rest and peace and culture!
Jasper was dressed, and was sitting in
an armchair reading, or pretending -
read, book
Can you rise, Mr. Jasper she
asked.
He tried to leave the chair, bun he
was still very weak, so she assisted
him.
And now, she said kindly, walk.

She watched his steps. His face
was pale, and the pallor was the more
observable from the darkness of his
hair. 4 think said he, forcing a

voluntarily he said, You are very
beautiful.
She colored-with pleasure. Twice
within few days the same compli
ment had been paid her.
What IS your name, young LADY,
My name is Eve
'Evel repeated Jasper. How
strange!
7 Twice also, within few days, had
this remark been passed on her name.
Why should it be stranger
Because that was also the name
OF my mother and of my sister,
Is your mother alive?'
He shook his head.
And your sister,?
L do not know. l remember her
only family, and my father never
speaks of her Then he changed the
subject. You are very unlike Miss
Barbara. 1 should not have supposed
you were sisters
We are half-siscers. We had not
the same mother
and turned towards the wall. Eve
seated herself in the chair vacated by
Barbara. She occupied her fingers
with making a cowslip ball, and when
it was made she tossed it. Then, as
he moved, she feared that she dis
turbed him, so she put the bah on the
table, from which, however, it rolled
off.
Jasper turned as she was cropping
for it.
Do l trouble your she said Honor
bright, I will sit quiet
How beautiful she looked with her
chestnut hair; how delicate and pearly
was her lovely neck; what sweet eyes
were hers, blue as heaven full of
sunshine!
Have you sat much with me, Mss
Eve, whilst [ have been ill?'
Not much; my sister would not suf-
fer me. 1 am such a fidget that she
thought I might irritate you; such a
giddypate that I might forget your
draughts and congresses. Barbara is
one of those people who do all things
themselves, and rely on no one else
/ must have given Miss Barbara
much trouble. How good she has
been'
oh, Barbara is good to everyone!
She can't help it. Some people are
born good-tempered and practical, and
others are born pretty and poetical;
some to be good needlewomen, others
to wear smart Clothes
Tell me, Miss Eve, did anyone come
near me when | met with my acct
dent?
Your friend Martin and Barbara
brought you here
And when I was here who had TO
do with my c1othes?'
Martin undressed you whilst my sis
ter and I got ready what was neces-
sary for you
And my clothes-who touched
them?'
After your friend Martin, only Bar
bara; she folded them and put them
away. Why do you ask?'
Jasper sighed and put his hand to
his head. Silence ensued for some
time; had not he held his hand to the
wound Eve would have supposed he
was asleep. Now, all at once, Eve
saw the cowslip ball; it was under the
table, and with the point Of her little
foot she could touch it and roll it to
her. So she played with the ball, roll
ing it with her feet, but so lightly
that she made no noise.
All at once he looked round at her
Startled, she kicked the cowslip ba?;
away. He turned his head away
again.
About five minutes later she was on
tiptoe, stealing across the room to
where the ball had rolled. She
picked it up and laid it on the pillow
near Jasper's face. He opened his
eyes. They had been closed.
I thought explained Eve, that the
scent of the flowers might do you
