SENSATIONS IN LOST LIMBS
Why Persons Who Have Suffered Am.

Is Hard to Reason.

1t is a fact, perhaps unfamiliar to
the average reader, that the illusion OF

Gus expression from DR.. Weir Mitchell
far from being rare or exceptional
is almost universal among persons who
have undergone an amputation. Among
ninety cases. including a great variety
of amputations, Mitchell found only
four in which there had never been an
Illusion of this kind.
One of the best discussions of this
topic is that given by Weir Mitchell in
his book, Injuries of Nerves" pub
lisl,pi in 1872. The literature, how
ever, goes back to the sixteenth CEN
fury, when the phenomenon was well
described by AMBROSE Pare In re-
cent times Doctor Charcot has given
some prominence to the subject.
The fact that a great deal has been
written on this subject does not, by
any means. imply that it is widely
familiar. We confess, says the Scien-
tifie American, to being consumed with
curiosity to know why the great war
has not brought forth a flood of stories
concerning pains and other sensations

HOW SCIENTISTS KNOW
NV WAIT ELEMENTS

M 9N4AA4N A 40 a - 49, ~
OV WAIT ELEMENTS
MAKE UP SUN AND STARS.
When you read in a scientific
book that the sun is made of
certain substances, that the
stars Aldebaran. Sirius. Capella.
etc, are made of other sub
stances. you wonder how this
can be known with such GER
tainty; for nobody has ever
been there to see. Neverthe-
less our knowledge of the COM
position of the sun and stars is
almost as certain as that of the
elements that go to make up
our own earth. And it is all due
to the spectroscope.
Isabel NJ. Lewis of the United
States naval observatory tells
in Electrical Experimental just
how it is done. When a roy
of sunlight passes through a
a spectroscope (Which consists
essentially Of glass prism or
chain of prisms), it is broken
up into its component parts.
which arrange themselves like a
rainbow, violet. indigo, blue,
green. yellow, orange, red. and
these colors are crossed by
many fine dark lines called
Frauenhofer or absorption lines.
The shortest wave engths are
in the violet and the longest in
the red; below the red are the
infra-red rays, invisible to the
naked eye but capable of being
photographed ON specially SEN
sitized plates.
An incandescent body under
high pressure gives up a band
of pure color unbroken by cross
lines. If. however. cooler gases
are between us and the source
of the continuous spectrum they
absorb from the light beyond
just those rays of which they
themselves consist. and as a re-
suit the band of color is crossed
by dark lines. Every chemical
element has its own lines in the
spectrum, always in the same
place. So it is easy to identify
the element merely by observ-
ing the position of the Frauen-
hofer or absorption line in the
spectrum.
If the intervening gases be
hotter than the source of light.
the lines they nake on the
spectrum viii be bright instead
of dark, but their position will
be unchanged

To Pay $50 to Men.

The Nye bill provides that Wiscon-
sins honorably discharged soldiers,
sailors, marines and nurses may take
courses at the University OF Wiscon-
sin, the normal schools and the other
Institutional institutions at cost to
the state of $50 month, covering the
period of education up to four years.
1t has not been fully determined how
many service men and women will
take advantage of this unusual oppor-
unity, but Gov. Philip estimated the
number win be about 10000.
There was never any doubt about
the passage of the bill at the special
session, the only surprise being the
number of votes cast against it in the
assembly. Those voting mo" were,
Assemblymen P. NJ. Anderson, Bortin

Clone, Mcdowell Mitchell. Nolan,
Olmsted, Olson, Ploetz, Porath, Ruka,
Scharpf, Vaughan, Williams and
Zarnke.
After the passage of the bill Senator
Nye said the measure would not cost
SIS 100000 but that it was decided to
place the amount that high in order
to meet any emergency.
Both houses adopted amendments to
make more convenient the administra-
ton of the blue sky law. One amend
ment will allow the taking of subscrip-
lions for securities FOR the sale of
Class A securities before the permit is
issued upon giving bond of $1,000 to
protect anybody signing the subscrip-
lions for such securities, the sale not

has been passed upon by the railroad
commission. Another amendment re-
duces the fee from 81 to so cents per
thousand on stock authorized, the
maximum charge not to exceed 5000.
A third amendment allows the sales of
securities which have been in the
hands of the public for one year prior
@ Aug. l, 1919, after a less formal in
vestigation than is required for new
issues.
The Jennings bill, restoring soldiers
relief commissions which were abol-
ished by an act passed at the regular
session of the legislature. went thru
without opposition.
BY vote OF 81 to 80. the assembly
killed a resolution by Metcalfe, calling
upon the state board of Cancellation to
attempt to settle the Cudahy packers
strike. The senate refused to receive
a resolution by Bennett indorsing the
socalled Plumb plan" for the national
lzation OF railroads in the United
States.
