TRACING THE SOUL.
Singular Experiments that go to Prove Ee
markable Things.
London Medical Record.
The Berlin Geijtnwart of Xov. 15,
1870, contains a report of some experi
ments niaue by Dunstmsuer to test the
accuracy of Jager's theory, that the
soul of every man and animal is to be
sought for m the characteristic odor
exhaled m each case. Dunstmaier
who unites in his own person the phys
iologist and metaphysican, was", until
these experiments convinced him of
his error, an outspoken opponent of Ja
ger's views. He is now, however, an
enthusiastic convert.
Dunstmaier's method was, no doubt,
suggested to him by his familiarity
wiin experimental science, lie con
sidered that light and the soul if the
soul is the odor are both radiated,
and that light can be, as it were, col
lected and fixed by a photographic
plate coated with iodide of silver.
What body, now, is as sensitive to
cdors as iodide of silver is to light?
Evidently the nerves of smell in a doc.
In the center of the the laboratory a
cage containing 20 hares was placed
anu a nog was admitted to the room.
3Ie at once made -violent efforts to cet
at the haras, which, of course, in their
terror, rushed to an fro m the case.
After two hours of this torture the dog
was killed, the nerves of smell and the
mucous membrane of the nose remov
ed and rubbed up in a mortar with
glycerine and Avater. The twenty
hares had been exhaling their souls
for two hours, and the dog during all
his panting and sniffing, inhaling them
for the same length of time. The clv-
cerine might be expected, then, to con
tain n certain quantity of the soul of
the hare, the main characteristic of
which is, of course, timidity. That
this was the fact the following experi
ments seemed to prove: A few drops
of the extract were administered to a
cat; she ran away from some mice in
stead of pouncing upon them. Uy the
subcutaneous injection of only two cu
bic centimcrs a large mastiff was ren
dered so cowardly that lie slunk away
from the cat. By a similar experiment
in which, however, a young lion in a
menagerie played the part of the hare,
Duntsmaier succeeded in isolating the
soul substance of courage and in trans
mittingit to other animals. Still more
interesting experiments showed clear-
Jy that these "psychotypic" glycerine
extracts had a decided effect on the hu
man species. Thus, after swallowing
;i smaii nose or psychotypic timidity,
Duntsmaier had not the courage to be
lieve in his own great discovery. This
effect soon passed off, however.

It Will Never be Played.
Detroit Free Press.
'By gum I'
Mr. and Mrs. Defoe sat before a
cheerful fire in their home the other
evening. There had been a long pe
riod of silence, when Mr. Defoe sud
denly exclaimed as above.
'What is it, dear!' she responded.
'Say, we've got tired of playing
games, and what do you say to private
theatricals?'
ITow?'
'Why, we'll get three or four of the
neighbors to join in and we'll meet at
each other s houses and have
plays.'
'That will be splendid!' she gasped.
'Hanged if it won't! Wonder we
never thought of it before. Twenty
dollars will get us all the scenery we
want, and each one can furnish his
own wardrobe. By gum ! we've got the
idea now!'
'What sort of a play could we play!'
she asked, as he marched up and down
with tragic step.
I have it aha!' he exclaimed, as he
stopped short. 'Don't you remember I
started to write a play about five years
ago? I'll finish it and we'll bring it out.
Now let's see how the characters run.
There is the Count Dumdorf, who is
in love with Geraldine the Fair. I'll
le the Count, of course, as he is the he
ro. He kills four men, rescues Geral
dine from several dangers, and there is
a good deal of kissing and love-making,
and a happv marriage.
'And I'll be Geraldine.'
'You! Oh, you couldn't play that
part. She must be young and vivac
ious. Let's see? I think I'll cast you
for Hannah, who keeps a bakery near
a park in Paris.'
'I'd like to see myself playing Han
nah in a bakery, I would!' she defiant
ly answered, 'H you can play Duradorff
I know I can play Geraldine.'
'Oh, no you can't, my love. You are
a little stiff in the knees, and how you'd
look throwing vourself in my arms as
the villians pursue. I shall cast that 1
little Widow D. for Geraldine.'
'Then there'll be two Geraldines of
us! If you can play Dumdorff with
your lame back and catarrh I know I
can play Geraldine with this little
lameness in my left knee.'
Xow you listen to reason, Mrs. De
foe. You aren't built for a Geraldine;
you are two fat; your feet are too
large; you haven't got the voice for
it.'
'And you'd make a pretty Count
Dumdorff, you would!' she fired back.
'You want to get that crook out of
your back, and bald he;ul shingled over,
your mouth repaired and your eyes
touched up with a paint brush! I
think I see you killing four villians
ha!ha!haj'
'Woman! do not anger me!' he said
in a deep-toned voice as he rose up.
'And don't you anger your Geraldine,
either!'
'Geraldine! Why you don't know a
sky-border from a flat!'
'Dumdorff! And you don't know a
skye terrier from the big fiddle in the
orchestra!'
'Tis well! We'll have no playing
here!'
'Then you needn't! When I play
Hannah in a bakery to let you hug and
kiss the Widow D. or any other wo
man all over the stage, you'll be three
or four Count Diimdorffs!'
'I'll burn the play, jealous womau!'
'If you don't I will, vain man I'
Then they sat down, and resumed
their former occupation of looking in
to the fire, and the disturbed cat went
back to her rug and her dreams.
A Hegroe's Eloquence.
Dallas (Texas) Times.
At Waxahachie, during the last term
oftheUllis county district court, a col
ored man was indicted for entering in
to a conspiracy to murder. He was
brought to trial, the evidence was
strong, and, in spite of the good fight
made in his defense by his attorney, he
was convicted. A motion for a new
trial was made, and the judge, seeing
that no error of law was made, and be
lieving the evidence sufficient, prompt
ly overruled the motion. When the
prisoners were brought in to be sen
tenced, this negro was among them.
When asked if he had anything to say
why sentence should not be passed up
on him, he said he knew anything he
might say would have no weight with
the court, as all the forms of law had
been complied with, and he must go to
the penitentiary, but he had something
to say for the benefit of his colored
friends, and, with the permission of
the court, he would make a few re
marks. The court told him that he
would listen. The negro started off
slowly and deliberately, reviewing the
testimony, showing the inconsistencies
of witnesses' statements, and then car
ried away with the idea of the wrong
done him, he burst forth in a strain of
eloquence seldom heard. When he sat
down the judge said: 'I thought you
guilty, I don't believe so now, and will
set aside the judgment overruling your
motion for a new trial and give you
another chance.' So eloquent had the
negro presented his case that the coun
ty attorneys dismissed the case and
the prisoner walked out of the court
room a freeman. This is the first case,
in Texas, at least, where a man brought
up to be sentenced was ever turned
loose. Every person present says the
effort was the finest one ever heard. The
negro is uneducated and a common
field hand.
The society for the encouragement of
moderation in drinking has issuod its
first annual report, which is published
in theew York Herald. It contains
figures that will startle extremists,
sceptical about the success of men who
began on the principle that half a loaf
is better than no bread. More than
22,000 pledges have been secured, and
one-fourth of these bound the signers to
total abstinence. Beyond this, howev
er, 4,000 men have pledged themselves
not to drink during business hours,
and 13,000 not to "stand treat" or be
treated. "The harm and discontent
prevented by these limited pledges,
that many temperance advocates effect
to despise, is incalculable. The. mis
chievous effects of drinking during bus
iness hours will be generally admitted,
even by men who use liquor, while to
the custom of treating must be attrib
uted at least half of the entire consump
tion of liquor throughout the country
as well as the frequent inebriation of
men who are not fond of liquor.'' All
honor to society! Would that one of the
kind might be organized among the
professional and business employes in
this city. It would mark an era of
practical reform, the most wholesome,
far-reaching and successful ever expe
rienced in our history. Are there not a
few men of influence with sense and
"sand" enough to move "with a will" in
this matter? Omaha Republican.
Strange, But True.
, Forsome weeks past the people of
Wytheville, Scott county, V:u, have
been terribly excited over the miracles
which have been performed by Ilich
ard Miller, of that county. His fame
bas extended all over that section of
the state, and hundreds of the aftlicted
are daily visiting him. Miller is u middle-aged
man, employed as the keeper
of McMullin's mill, near Eastville.
He is deeply religious, and claims to
have had a dream, a month ago, in
which the idea was impressed on hini
that, with God's help, he could perform
wonderful cures, simply through faith.
He states that the next day after a fer
vent prayer he healed a sick man bv
simply touching him. The intelligence
of the miracle went all over the coun
ty, and the afflicted of all kinds came
to him and were healed, simply by the
touch of his hand. Yesterday G. It.
"Wertz, a photographer at Abington,
visited Miller in company with a para
lytic uncle, the seat of the paralysis be
ing in the mouth, which deprived him
both of the powers of speech and hear
ing. Miller looked at the afflicted man
and after a short prayer touched him
and told him that befcie he reached
home 1k would be well. Last night,
as Mr. Wertz entered the door of his
house on his return, his hearing and
speech came back to him, and to-day
he is apparently hale and hearty. Miss
Irene Xewton, a beautiful young lady
of Bristol, Tennessee, helpless from
rheumatism, was brought to Miller last
week, and when an attempt was made
to lift her into the carriage she rose
from a sedan chair and said she was
entirely well One of the most won
derful miracles of Miller was the cure
of Mr. Peter Whitesell, who has been
xor some years aiuicten with cancer.
The eanccr was touched, and in three
days had disappeared. The miracle
worker is an exceedingly modest man,
and always indignantly declines any
compensation for his services, alleging
that he is but the humble instrument
of God. He lakes no credit to himself
for the performance of these miracles.
uUi the people in this section believe
firmly in his miraculous powers.
Saving a Train.
On Sunday evening last an incident
occurred on the Western nylroad that
will cause surprise wherever it is spok
en of. The train was within thirty
miles of Montgomery, running at a
rappid rate, all unconscious of danger.
The engineer spied a white handker
chief on a pole, fluttering in the road
some distance up the track. On get
ting nearer lie discovered it was some
one waiving the train down. The shrill
whistle was sounded, brakes put on
and the train brought to a standstill.
The heads of the passengers were pop
ping out of the windows, inquiring
what the trouble was, no station being
near.
The conductor came out, and, seeing
a tramp was the one who had caused
the train to stop, inquired, in probably
a rather angry manner, what was
wanted. This man, who belonged to a
class universally despised and subjected
to cuffs and kicks, astonished the con
ductor by informing him that about
eighteen inches of rail was broken out
a short distance further on. The brok
en place was repaired, the train about
to move off, when the conductor saw
the tramp standing on the roadside,
anu asKeu:
' Where do you want to go ?'
The tramp replied:
'To Pensacola.'
'Then,' said the conductor, 'whv don't
you get on the train ?'
The reply w.is:
'Because I have no money.'
The conductor told him toget aboard,
that he would take him to Montgom
ery. On arriving in the citv the fact
was reported to the general manager of
the road, who asked the man which he
would have, money or work. The man
answered he would rather have em
ployment. A position was at once
given him. At last accounts he was
at work and doing well. Columbus
(Ga.) Enquirer.
The debate in the Senate on the res
olution unseating Kelloggto make place
for Spofford, was significant for the ex
hibition it afforded of the intolerance
of the Democratic leader and of the in
difference with which they throw aside
the most solemn engagements for par
tisan purposes. There is no fact in
current political history better known
than that the seating of Butler, of
South Carolina, was permitted upon the
distinct understanding that Kellogg
should not be disturbed in his seat.
His title to it is res adjudicata, having
been affirmed by theSenate itself. Ui
on every principle of justice and fair
ness the contest was ended, and the at
tempt to reopen it is simply an attempt,
in violation of express understanding,
to steal a seat in the Senate for the re
mainder of Kellogg s term. These
things were all patent to the country,
but the debate of yesterday broturht
them into bolder prominence than be
fore, and at a time when they will not
be forgotten. On that account the Be
publican party can almost afford to be
grateful to Senator Jones for the expos
ure of the animus of himself and his
party he made in the matter. In tcr

Fresh Air.
Dr. Foote's Health Monthly.
ltecently in advising a young patient
to take plenty of fresh air she remarked
"I suppose it will do if 1 put my head
out of the window. As this young
lady is intelligent on most subjects it is
fair to presume that there are a great
many people who imagine that they are
as much benefited by sitting in an open
window or by putting the head out of
an open window as by taking a walk or
ride. All such thoughtless people
should be advised that opening a win
dow into a warm room creates at once
a strong draught, and that to sit in a
draught is almost sure to produce a cold.
As important as fresh air is one might
better avoid it than take it under such
circumstances.
The Two Kinds of Bigamy.
From the Boone Standard.
The great papers are beginning to fre
quently inquire why Clarence Davis, the
Chicago' bigamist, is in jail for having
four wives and George Q. Cannon in
congress for having six. The answer
is plain enough. Clarence buys only
enough for his personal wants, while
the Mormon church is one of the lar
gest customers in the whole country.
All questions of religion, morals and
manners are tabled in the presence of a
cash customer in these "golden" days
of shopping America.
Tilden's election is an absolute im
possibility. His capture of the conven
tion can only serve to avert the danger
of a close contest by rendering the elec
tion of the Chicago candidate, by an
overwhelming majority, an absolute
certainty. Chicago Times.
A little boy, watching the burning
of the school house until the novelty of

Some time apjo a number of Canadian
agriculturists met in convention and
adopted for themselves the following
creed: We believe the soil lives to eat
as well as the owner, and ought there
fore, to be well manured. "We believe
in going to the bottom of things, and
therefore deep plowing, and enough of
it. All the better if it be a sub-soil
plow. We believe in large crops which
leave the land better than they found
it, making both the farm and the farm
er rich at once. We believe that every
farm should own a good farmer. AVe
believe that the fertilizer of any soil is
a spirit of industry, enterprise and in
telligence; without these, lime, gypsum
anu guano would be ot little use.

How to Oook a Husband.
The first thing to be done is to catch
lum. Having done so, the mode of
cooking him so as to make a good dish
is as follows: Many a good husband is
spoiled in cooking. Some women keep
them constantly in hot water, while
others freeze them with conjugal cold
ness; some smother them with hatred
and contention, and still others keep
them in pickle all their lives. These
women always serve them up with ton
gue sauce. J o w, n is n o c to ue supj ose i
that husbands will be tender and good
if treated this way, but they are on the
contrarv, very delicious when managed
as follows: Get a large jar, called the
jar of carefulness, (which all good
house-wives have on hand), place him
near the fire of conjugal love; let the
fire be pretty hot, especially let it be
clear; above all, let theheatbe constant;
cover him over with affection; garnish
Jum over with the spice of pleasantly,
and if vqu add kisses and other confect
ions, let them be accompanied with a
sufficient portion of secrecy, mixed with
prudence and moderation.
John "Wilkes Booth's bodv was orig
inally buried in the grounds of the ar
senal at "Washington, under some wil
low trees, and the grave wjis unmarked,
even by a mound. Yery few people
know wiktp it lay, and various, stones
of its disposition were current. Tn
1S6(S Edwin Booth, the actor, applied
to President Johnson, through Mr.
"Weaver, the Sexton of Christ Church,
Baltimore, for the possession of his
brother's remains. An order was is
sued by the President directing the
commandant at the arsenal to exhume
and deliver the remains to Mr. "Weaver,
which was done in a very secret man
ner, for fear of public interference.
the body was taken to a cemetery in
Baltimore, where it was buried beside
the elder Booth and other members of
the family. The removal was not gen
erally known for a long time after
ward. Booth's brain and heart, and
some bones that were taken from his
leg are on exhibition at the Armv Mwl-
