VISIONS OF GHOSTS.
They Seem to Come to About One Per.
son In Every Ten.

They Seem to Come to About One Per.
son In Every Ten.
The modern theory of ghosts insists
that invariably. when they are real
ghosts and not the spurious product of
credulity and deception. they are dis
dn~tly subjective In character and ex.
ist only by virtue OF conditions permit
ting their creation in the mind OF the
person or persons seeing them. In
-Nher words. a real ghost is never an
objective phenomenon. like tree or
house. As psychologist would say.
1t is always "a percept having no basis
in external reality" Less iearnedly. 1t
is always a case Of seeing things
where they amt" That is to say. it
is Authorization 4.
1t has been conclusively demonstrate
ed that one person out Of every ten
has experienced at least one hallucina-
ton at some time in his or her life.
Proof of this results chiefly from q
remarkable census of hallucina lions
originated more than twenty years ago
at the International congress of psy
chology and simultaneously carried on
principally by members Of the Psy
chical Research-in the United States
England. France. Germany and other
countries. To thousands of persons the
question was put. Have you ever
when believing yourself to be com
pletely awake. had vivid impression
Of seeing or being touched by living
being or inanimate object or of hear
ing voice. which impression, SO far
as you could discover. was not due to
any external physical causeT OF the
1880 replies received to this ques
ton no fewer than 1926 were in the
afRrmative-Hampto Magazine.

WEATHER SIGNS.
Some Rules That Help In Reading the
Clouds and Winds.

Some Rules That Help In Reading the
Clouds and Winds.
The following formula Of weathe.
signs was adopted by the Farmers
club Of the American institute some
years ago. and it has been found to
give satisfaction:
When the temperature falls suddenly
there is storm forming south of you
When the temperature rises suddenly
there is stesm forming north Of you
The wind always blows from a region
Of fair weather toward a point where
q storm is forming.
Cirrus clouds always move from a re-
gion where storm is in progress to
one of fair weather. Cumulus clouds
always come from a region where Il
storm is forming. When cirrus clouds
are moving rapidly from the north or
northeast. no matter how cold it is.
there will be rain within twenty-four
hours. When cirrus clouds are moving
rapidly from south or southeast there
will be hailstorm on the morrow, if
it be in summer. and if it be in the
winter there will be snow.
The wind always blows about a
storm In a circle. When it blows from
the north the heaviest rain is east Of
you. If it blows from the south the
heaviest rain is west of you. If it
blows from the east the heaviest rain
is south. Tie wind never blows even
moderately unless rain or snow is fall
ing within radius of 1000 miles
Whenever heavy white frost occurs
a storm is forming within 1000 miles
north or northwest Of you.-Christian
Herald Almanac.

SUCH AN UNUSUAL REQUEST.

1t is the custom for the stage man
ager of all travelling theatrical COM
panieS to go to the theatre Immediate
ly upon the company's arrival in town
and lay out on a sheet of paper a list
of the dressing rooms to be assigned
to the various members of the COM
pany.
The stage manager of this particu-
lar company repaired to the "opry-
house" as soon as the troupe had
landed in town. He made inquiry
of an old man whom he found sweep
ing off the stage and who proved to
be the manager about the number of
dressing rooms, so that he could lay
out the list for the actors.
I'VE have two dressing rooms" said
the old man, according to Everybody's
Magazine.
But said the stage manager, 81
have a star and thirty ladies and gen.
tlemen IN my company. How can I
put thenr in two rooms?"
''Well," replied the old man, you
can put the star in the little room
and the thirty people in the big room.
You don't seem to understand"
said the stage manager. Besides the
star there are thirty men and women
How can they dress together?''

man. "Ain't they speakin'?'

BOARD OF HEALTH
DROPS INSPECTOR,
FOR INCOMPETENCE
Also Urges DR.. Knapp to Make
Arrests For ViOlatiOns-Much
Business Transacted

Inspector Frank M. Spitz. one of
the representatives of the Board Of
Health at the city slaughter house.
meeting of the health board, on the
S. Smith was appointed in his place.
Several of the commissioners had
made a personal investigation into the
matter and this, coupled with a re-
port stating that Spitz had been alb
sent from duty several occasions, was
out further ado. The selection of w.
S. Smith to his place was unanimous.
Mayor Wilson was present and
urged the board to undertake gen.
eral cleaning up of the city and for
this purpose urged the appointment
of three or four deputy inspectors fer
a few weeks. This matter will lie
considered at a special meeting Sat-
urday afternoon at which representa-
tives of the police department and
the street department will be present.
Milk and Meat Inspector A. Garlic
ton Knapp made his report and the
members of the board of health and
the mayor then fell upon him and
demanded to know why he did not
give specific instances in the report.
Dr. Knapp then amended his report to
show two violations of the law-one
at the bake shop of H. F'rankel of
100 Reilly street and the other at the
shop of Mrs. j. T. Leigh at 335 Madl-
son avenue.
Dr. Knapp was then cross-examin-
ed as to whether or not he was rigor-
ously enforcing the law against dob"
or under-aged veal, and the law re-
quiring the stamp of the board OF
health on all meat sold IN the city;
DR.. Knapp admitted that possibly
a case or two might be slipped over
on him" occasionally, and the board
thereupon told him to. get busy ano
make arrests, and to make examples
of few of the Offenders.
After a spirited discussion motion
to increase the salary of DR.. Florence
Sherman, the school Inspector, was
continued for time. The motion is
to increase her salary from S1.2S5 to
$500. Commissioner Whitcomb call
ed attention to the fact that Health
officer Mcclellan is on the job IL
hours a day for 365 days in the year
and gets only $500: DR.. McQueeney
at the Emergency hospital puts In IL
hours on duty daily for 81 day; on
the other hand Miss Sherman spends
only few hours a day for 1872 days
in the year and is paid at the rate OF
81 day for the work she puts in.
The report of Health Officer McLe1-
Ian contained recommendation for
the battle upon house flies, which the
health board is undertaking at the
present season, with particular atten-
ton directed to eliminating the breed
ing places of these little disease car
riers and pests.
DIR. Mcclellan especially called at
tention to the nuisance existing along
the Pequonnock river, arising from
sewage and mud flat doors at low
tide, and to eliminate this, he recon-
mends the bulkheading Of the river
front along this district. The NUS
ance has for years been felt by the
residents on both sides of the river
and it is time that it was eliminated.
Contagious disease in the city for
the three months ending March 81,
1912, were as follows:
