NV Pictures.

MY pictures.
Some one rave me a picture
A little glimpse Of the sea,
Cliff and surf n a gull awning
/ smell the salt and l feel the swing;
How il comes back to me!
Rhythm of wave. and CLEAN of sand,
And a white sail rounding the point OF
land.
Some one gave me a picture
A bit of country lane,
Tangle of flower and fern and vines
Under the shade of the purple pines;
Oh, to be there again,
There, where the ground-thrush hides her
nest,
And the wild red strawberries ripen best
So, pain-bound and helpless,
I lie n dream all day:
God is good and the world is wide.
Sun and sea and the dancing tide,
And a fair ship in the bay!
These are mine, and the skies of June.
Sing, my heart. to the thrush's tune!

CHOOSING a Wife.

AS much of beauty as preserves affection;
OF modest diffdence as claims projections,
A docile min subserv.ent to correction;
A temper led by reason and reflection,
And every passion kept in due subjection:
Just faults enough to keep her from per.

Find this, my friend. and then make your

Odd Job for Carpenters.

What do you think of this for a
speciality" said a man who knows the
ms and outs of Long Acre square.
There are carpenter shops in this
neighborhood where the chief source
of income is boxing chorus girls hats.
It's become pretty much of an indus
try since the hats grew so large that
they couldn't be tucked into trunks.
The girls when they were about to
start on the road used to drift into ex-
press offices with bandboxes under
their arms and ask to have them
shipped just as they we're. But the
express companies can't accept pack
ages so fimsily hung together. The
agent would direct the girl to a nearby
carpenter shop to have the box Grated
and that's how the business grew. Oh,
the carpenters get about so cents a
Job and in the course of week those
half-dollars make quite neat pile

James A. Patten, the millionaire
cotton Spectator, was talking in a
Chicago club about his recent trip to
England.
"The English" Mr.. Patten said,
take a great interest in self-made
men. Every English reporter who in
terviewed me asked for a sketch of
my life, and in each of their articles
they dwelt on my humble beginning. !"
We'll, you weren't ashamed of 1t,
were your" one Of his listeners asked.
Neither ashamed nor unduly proud
Of it," Mr. Patten answered. Some
men who have worked their way up
from a very poor beginning delight In
telling of the hardships of their youth.
Often, though. I am afraid they ex-
aggerate, as friend of mine once did
in preaching to young and rather ex-
travagant clerk.
ITO amount to anything in the
long rum said my friend, economy
and a sense of order are absolutely
necessary. Why, when was your age,

SOME IDEAS ON HYPNoTISM
Results Achieved by Touching the
Bumps on the Head Of Pre-
pared Subject.

There is one curious phenomenon
in hypnotism which l have never been
able to explain satisfactorily and
which seems to be ignored by the
modern hypnotist," says a writer in
the Metropolitan. 1T was first studied
by Braid. It is called phreno.magnet-
Ism and has been advanced by phre-
biologists in proof of the correctness
Of their localization Of the mental fac
ulties on the head.
"As far as know It has never re-
ceived serious consideration from SCI
entists. perhaps because based on
two theories that modern science has
not yet accepted: first, that there is
such thing as animal magnetism and,
secondly, that the phrenologists have
correctly located the faculties on the
human head.
However this may be, phreno-mag-
netism is a phenomenon which can
be tested readily by anyone interested.
The technique of phreno-magnetism is
this: When the subject is in the hyp-
motto sleep the operator, standing be-
hind him, places the tips Of his fingers
upon the subjects head and waits.
Soon the subject will begin to act or
sing or speak Anyone acquainted
with the chronological system Of To-
caliEation will recognize at once that
the actions or words OF the subject
correspond to the organ on the head
which has been touched by the opera.
tor.
Thus II you touch combativeness
the subject is very apt to square of
and strike some one or speak of war
or a drum. II you touch generation
he is very apt to lift his eyes and
pray. l have heard a very eloquent
sermon thus inspired in subject who
was gifted with ready tongue.
Touch the organ of color and he
viii speak Of beautiful colors. Touch
tune and he will sing or whistle
Touch caution and his face will ex.
press vivid fear. remember that one
subject startled me by shouting
Look out!' and making leap that he
could scarcely have equaled in his
waking state. When touched the fac
