BABY SAVED BY MIRACLE.

Almost through a miracle the life
Of five months old infant was saved
at Willow Beach, Nahant, Mass,
where it was discovered after 1t had
apparently been thrown into the sea.
The police are certain that someone,
perhaps the child's mother, intended
that It should die.
Chief of Police Larkin, who per-
sonally began an investigation after
the finding OF the wailing infant, is
of the opinion that the baby was
thrown into the water at a spot where
there are a number of Jagged rocks
at the full flood tide. Instead or be-
ing washed out to sea the child was
carried back toward the shore and
landed between two of the rocks,
where il became firmly wedged.
Every particle of clothing was
water-soaked. and the child's face
looked as IL it long had been exposed
to the water. but Larkin declares
that IL is not likely that 1t was thrown
from any steamer. He does not be-
lieve the child would have floated
long enough TO reach the shore if it
had come from the ship.
The young ones appearance is not

around us. 1t was as IL we were in

but all without sound. Some
seemed to rise out OF the grass on
either side of us, others to pass
through us and to come out on the
other side. The women were dressed
in bygone fashion, with high bonnets
and shawls, and large nounces on
their dresses. There was one very
tall man who took great strides,
though perfectly noiseless; he wore
a kind OF cape. We approached our
own gate, where we should turn in,
and then we had long driveway to
walk up before we could reach the
house. I think that by the time we
had reached the gate all the figures
had disappeared except this one tall
man. He had quite different look
from any OF the others-more horri-
BILE altogether. AS we entered our
gate, to our intense relief, he passed
by along the road and vanished OF
course we were all very much fright
ened. The maid and my sister were

In case like this, where the same
several persons, the value of the test
imony, obviously, is multiplied hun
dredfold. For, while one individual
may be the victim of a hallucination,
such an Illusion can hardly be shared
by many. What then, is to be said
in answer to such evidence, furnished
by Opponents OF unimpeachable char
acter and reputation for truthful
ness? To suppose that they are COM
bining in the manufacture OF a lie
is scarcely sonable.-Joseph NJ.

Chcnnness

After all that may be said on the
subject OF advertising. the fact re-
mains that the most powerful argu-
ment that can be used is that of
cheapness People will buy things
because they are cheap, where the
consideration OF quality would have
no effect whatever People have come
to look upon advertisements as a
means Of finding where they can buy
goods the cheapest An advertise
mont should always contain the price
Of the article advertised In fact,
unless you can offer an article
cheaper than 80 can be purchased any
where else. there is not much use ad-
vertising &C. The people who are in
nuenced by advertisements are the
great middle class. whose incomes are
limited and whose constant study is
to adjust their purchases TO ht them.
