The Fugitive Ideal.
As some most pure and noble face
Seen in the thronged and hurrying street
Sheds DER the world a sudden race.
A flying odor sweet.
Then, passing. leaves the cheated sense
Baked with a phantom excellence,
So on our soul the visions rise
or that fair life we never led
They flash a splendor past u eyes:
We start, and they are fled.
They pass and leave us with blank gaze.
Resigned to our ignoble days.

ger Of Premature Burial.
There is Il widespread belief among
educated persons that burial while
stil1 alive is, though not probable, at
least possible. AS evidence of this be-
lief one has but to notice how many
persons leave instructions in their wills
for the taking of special precautions
to guard against this most dreadful. of
ca~tastrophies.
When embalming takes place, Of
course. there is no possibility of being
buried alive. yet being killed by en-
banning fluid instead Of being allowed
to revive and spend many more years
on earth is not the fate one would Sc
lect.
Although there is but II infallible
sign Of death-namely. p~utrefaction-
yet there are many other signs. no one
Of which is incontrovertible. yet that

sence of pu%trefaction. make the diagno-
sis absolutely sure
The heart may stop beating, but this
does not necessarily mean that the pa
tient is dead. The writer recalls q.
case in his personal observation when
a w0man's heart stopped beating thfr-
ty-four times in twelve hours and each
time was started up again by fnjec-
tons Of brandy and of nitroglycerin.
That is more than six years ago, and
the woman is alive and strong today.
It is often very difficult to tell the
precise moment Of death, but when
the heart refuses to respond to stimu-
lation. when the body becomes rigid.
when the blood coagulates and the eye
balls become flaccid and lose their ten
sion. then there is no doubt that death
has come. The greatest safeguard
against premature burial is the length

FREE PASSES ONCE MORE.

The Louisville and Nashville rail-
road is shown by its records, under
the investigation of the Interstate
Commerce Commission, to have is
sued thousands of free passes last
year, a remarkable proportion of
them going to legislators, judges,
End other public officials. The
Nashville, Chattanooga and st. Louis
makes a very similar showing; the
commission finding that the free
transportation given out by the IA
vor of these two roads was worth
something like $4,000.
This brings sharply to mind the
fact that, contrary to widely en-
tertained impression, the free pass
has not been put out of circulation.
The law of 1907 abolished the inter
state pass. Many of the States have
long since passed acts of their legis-
latdres, forbidding the free pass
within the State. But there are yet
q great number of States that have
shunted off the anti-pass legislation,
and in these conditions are just as
vicious and immoral as they ever
were in the worst days of the use of
the pass to corrupt legislation, ad-
rninistration, and politics.
