IT SHOOK HIS NERVES.
An incident That Made a Man Feel
Queer For Awhile.

cone night" said a lawyer, 81
was preparing some tedious plead
ings which had TO be submitted to
court the following morning, and,
knowing that | would need every
moment of my time, locked my.
self in small private consultation
room in the rear Of my suit, where
no chance caller could interrupt me.
The room is very diminutive, with
only one window, looking into
court, and no furniture except
table and two or three chairs. Well,
/ worked on steadily hour after
hour long after the city had settled
into sleep and silence. The build
ing was so still | could hear even an
occasional mouse scamper across
the floor alone. At last | concluded
the task and, sitting erect in my
chair, began to stretch my cramped
limbs.
"As l did so my eyes happened
to fall on a lighted cigar stump "
ing on the carpet not four feet
away, and | stopped stock still, fro
zen with amazement. | do not
smoke had been sitting for hours
in that little locked room. | could
swear that no one had entered. The
window was tightly closed, yet there
right at my feet lay a half con-
sumed cigar with a great live coal
still glowing at the end. 1t seems
ridiculous to confess, but thrill Of
horror ran through me like a gal
vanic shock. A hallucination of any
kind is an appalling thing; it makes
no difference how grotesque or
homely the subject. 1t carries such
frightful suggestion Of breakdown
in ones mental engine room.
"Well, ! finally summoned up
enough nerve to stoop down and ex-
anime the stump. and what do you
think it was? Why, tin foil cap
sule from the top of an ordinary
quart bottle of mucilage. In strip
ping il off it had assumed the cir
cular twist of a cigar and. the foil
being brown, was just the right col
or. The red seal at the top formed
the coal, and a yard or so away the
illusion was perfect. | drew deep
breath of relief, but it was actually
several days before my nerves re-
sumed their normal tension"

WITCHCRAFT IN ENGLAND.
The Last OF the Judicial Prosecutions
and Executions.

Sir Matthew Hale, it is true, had
hanged two poor women at Cam
bridge in 1864. but few years later
Lord Chief Justice Holt set him
self strongly against such charges
and in every case tried before him
directed the jury to bring in a YER
dict Of acquittal. In a celebrated
trial at Guildford in liOl not only
was he supposed witch found not
guilty, but her false accuser, one
John Hathaway, was condemned to
a years imprisonment and to stand
in the pillory three times. Yet,
horrible to relate, woman named
Hicks and her daughter, a child OF
nine. were hanged together at
Huntingdon on July %, 17l6, for
raising a storm Of wind in league
with the devil.
Tie last judicial sentence fol
witchcraft in England was in 1876
ore Jane Wenham being actual,
found guilty, according TO the in
dictment, of "conversing familiar
lv with the devil in the form Of a
cat" The Judge, however. procured
reprieye for poor old Jane. anc
she was ultimately released. to enc
her days in peace.
Last, the witchcraft act was re
pealed for the United Kingdom j,
the same year. 1t was quite time
for only nine years earlier. in 1927
woman was brought before Cap
tain David Ross, deputy sheriff O
Sutherland. charged with causing
! her daughter to be shod by the dev
il" and so making her lame both il
hands and feet. The fact havin!
been proved to the captains salts
| faction, the old woman was put int
a tar barrel and burned at Dornoch
The weather being cold at the time
we are told that she sat composed
| ly warming herself BY the fire pre-
pared to consume her while the 9th
er instruments of death we're get
ting ready"
The last attempt to execute
witch in England ended disastrousl
for the perpetrators. In l75l a
Tring two old people named o.
borne, man and wife, being suspect
ed OF witchcraft, were seized BY
crowd, stripped, cross bound an
thrown into pond. Both died 0
this brutal treatment But tn
witchcraft act had been repealed
and. verdict Of willful murder hay
inc been returned against one Co.
ley, the chief instigator Of the as
sault, he was in due course trie
and hanged.-Cornhill Magazine.

A STRIKING CONTRAST.
Entering the United States Senate and
the House of Lords.

When senator Is elected in the
United States he sends his creden-
,al, on in advance. They are pre-
sented by hi. colleague, read from
,he desk aud filed in the secretary's 5
Office unless some objection Is
"a ell. when they are sent to the
committee on privileges and cleo
tions for examination. When a sen
ator elect appears he steps quietly
mn 10 the clerks desk, escorted by
ls colleague, takes an oath to sup
mort the constitution Of the United
States and is then led to a desk on
the outer row, which his colleague
las selected for him, where he re-
ceiyes the congratulations Of his
friends and introductions to the
senator's who care to make his ac-
cnaintancc. He looks as wise as
may be and waits for adjournment,
when he goes to the secretary's Of
fee. writes his autograph in a big
red book for the use Of the cashier
and draws his mileage.
In the English house of lords the
proceedings are very different. A
newly created peer enters that his
toric chamber in a robe of scarlet
velvet trimmed with ermine, at
tended by two fellow peers, who act
as his sponsors and escorted by the
black rod, as the sergeant-at-arms
is known, and the garter king al
arms, arrayed in a gorgeous tabard
The procession marches around
making low bows to the empty
throne and to the presiding officer
who is the lord high chancellor
from different parts Of the gildec
chamber, TO which that imposing
person gravely responds When the
new peer reaches the throne he
kneels reverently and places upor
the empty chair, where his majesty
ought to be sitting, the patent o.
nobility he has received from hi'
sovereign. He is then led to the
woolsack. where the lord chancellor
administers to him the oath. Hi
sponsors next lead him to the prop
er bench, where he takes his seat
for moment. Then all three ris'
ana bow three times at the vacant
throne and three times to the pre-
siding officer. The lord high chan
celor then leaves the woolsack anC
comes down to shake hands with th'
new peer and welcome him to th'
house. The other peers come als'
and tender their congratulations.

Cured BY Funny Stories.

Having yainly tried many and
various remedies 10 restore to health
a business man whom ! know and
who had fallen into morbid con-
dition owing to years of oyerwork,
famous Baltimore physician at
last persuaded his patient to take
a course of funny stories, one at

dinner. Tie patient, a solemn and
gloomy f. 0w. at first rebclled, but
finally falling in with the idea,
adopted the course recommended
and was in the end restored TO
health. the effect Of laughter being
entirely to change his mental and

Laughter, in fact, Is one OF the

Strong Words.

Big words pass for sense with
some people and sometimes may be
very successfully used when nothing
else will answer, says an English
writer. Thus when a man, in great
alarm. ran to his minister to tell
him he could see spots on the sun
and thought the world must be COM
ing to an end. "Oh, don't be afraid"
said the good minister, 'it's nothing
but a phantasmagoria." "Is that
all ?" said the frightened man, and
then he went away relieved.
A very smart lawyer some time
since had the misfortune to lose a
case for a client who had every rea-
son to expect success. The client, a
plain old farmer, was astounded by
the long bill of costs and, fastening
to the lawyers Office, said, Il
thought You told me We should GER
tainly gain that suit ?" $50 ] 6d."
answered the lawyer, "but, vou go,
when / brought it up there before
the Judges they said it was quo
rum non ludice." "Well, if they said
it was as bad as that" replied the
old farmer, Il don't wonder we lost
it," And he paid the costs and a
big fee besides without another

GIadstone's Handshake.

An Aberdeen paper tells a Glad
stone story Of the memorable Mid
lothian tour. On one occasion
there was a great handshaking or
deal at the window of the old gen
tleman's railway carriage, and he
was rapidly getting the worst Of it.
A stalwart young policeman who
accompanied Mr.. Gladstone proved
equal to the occasion. Crouching
behind the great man and thrustlng
his hand under Mr.. Gladstone's In
verness cape, the muscular "peeler
gave each conner in turn gnp that
had no lack Of cordiality.
"The auld mans uncommon
veegorous at his time O life," OBJ
served one unsuspecting Scot as he
stroked his fingers.
"He is that" concurred another
Of the policcman's victims, "but did
We notice his dirty nails"
