He looked confident and peaceful.
“Ho ic now nadir my control. I no

By this time bis hand was on the back

“Why donl you alt down?”

■pom the floor and ha made a sodden

Dr.'Hammond; “it’a a thousand miles
awny.”
“That's ao,” aaid the subject sadly; “it
leaks as If It wma does hy. bath’s a thou

Whan a student sent it spinning across
the floor again ha only looked longingly
■liar It, without making any attempt to
“Why don’t yon go and take a ride this
beautiful afternoon r asked Dr. Ham-
**l hove no bona; I’m 100 poor to bay

“No horse? Why, am yon Wind?
What’s that bmfala yon,” ha aaked, point
ing to a chair. “Don’t you see the horse?
Jump an Me back and go for a can tar.”
A Muila hooka over the anbject’a face and
ha threw back Ha hand.
“Al right Whoa there! Steady now!"
ha cried, gait lag astride the chair and
racking to and fro. “Now we are off.
Gelngl Faster! faster!”
“But, my Irtend, yon bad better be
earofol; that’s a balky hone. Look out!
By Jingo, ha will sorely throw yon.”
Daring these shoots the subject became
vary excited, and atood over the chair as
if raising In the stirrups. At the words,
“Be wiO surely throw yon,” be flung his
hands upward and rolled off the chair to
the pound.
“Yon’ie terribly hurt,” said the phy
striae, bending over him. “Yon mint
fed very sore. I know yon do. How’s
yonr beadT”
“Broken.” sneweted the subject, much
to tbe amusement oI the students, and
fro a lev momenta be lay perfectly still,
wkb dosed eyes. Alter an imaginary
bntbbro and s«nr be was ktil he
fall better. He (nUy agreed with that
opinion and struggled to hie feet.
“Why, you’re all right again.” said Dr.
Hammond “Yon’ro looking as (rash aa
aJuneroae.”
“Ham flail better in my life” replied
the subject. -
"But 1 bare a terrible piece of news
Id fan. Ceaua am near me. No one

“Whit la Hr* whispered tbe subject.
“Tan aaa that maa leaning against the
mall Mar tbs door? Look at him well,
■a tf the Murderer of yew father.”
“Tee, yen an right. Ob. 11l settle

barnabad forward.
"B* cxraful,” whispered Dr. Hammond,
dragging him bank, “fake him un
aware*.” After an effort he became
calm, and hi* expreeaion changed to one
of intense conning. He knelt down in a
comer, took a lead pencil from hia pocket
and commenced to sharpen it upon the
sole of hia boot aa if It were a knife. The
students held their breath and watched
his erery movement with excited eyes.
“What will he do next?" was the thought
in every mind. He roee to his feet with
out making a sound, and drew the pencil
along hia Anger as if tcstingthe edge. It
was evidently sharp enough tp suit him
for he drew back hia Angers with an ex
clamation aa if the pencil had drawn
blood, and commenced sucking his thumb.
Keeping close to the waH he crept up be
hind the supposed murderer, who had
purposely turned bis hack. There waa a
moment’s pause on the pert of the sub
ject, then a glare came into his eyes, the
pencil Hashed through the air three tiroes
and the deed was done. Absurd though
H may appear, a shiver ran through the
onlookers as the pencil struck.
The subject did not want to see the
effect of hia subbing, but bounded to the
door and would have rushed bareheaded
into the street but that he wag stopped by
a. couple of men. He struggled like a
madman until Dr. Hammond’s voice
subdued him.
"The police are coming that way. Hide
hare under thiaUWe.” His teeth chat
tered and his limbs shook aa he crept
into the hiding place, his wild eyes Axed
upon the door. "Look at that man’s
face," said Dr. Hammond to the class;
"guilt and terror are stamped upon it.
You see a murderer haunted by the fear
of (Selection and the remembrance of hia
crime.
"Poor "doril,” whiapend one ol the
■lndents, “M’s almost tainting with
fright. I feel mif I bod Joat finished one
of Kteveoeoo's etoriee. Mekee one llilnk
of ‘Harkheim,’ doem’t it?”
"Yoa may coma oat now,” whiapend
Dr. Hammond; "the police hare gone,"
"Oh, are yoa surer’ he faltered,
throating out hia bead aad then drawing
it hock. At length he wm convinced
that them wm nothing to fear, tod ho
crept out, hie face ghastly sod beads ol
ponpiration on his forehead. When be
had recovered hie composure Ik. Ham
mood touched him on the arm and whit
pond laaiauatingly:
"You’re o poor man. I can .how yon
o way to moke plenty ol money just by
the stroke ol a poo. Will yoo do Itr’
•• Yes; I'll do it. whatever it to," he ex
claimed.
“I want yoo to forge s check for 120,*
000. dost copy this signature and yoo
■hall have half of ft."
"Give it to me. Give me open. There
yoo are. Mom's the weed, remember,”
and the check was forged.
“Col. Ingersoll will now address the
class,’’ said Dr. Hammond, and he mo
tioned to the subject to step upon Uie
platform. He had none of the famous
atheist’s eloquence, but he bad a strong
voice and a Strong fist. He pounded on
the Übie and yelled tiU be was hoarse
that there was no God; that Christians
walked in darkness, and that he had hell
enough on earth without expecting more
of it hereafter. Nest ha was Chauncey
Depew. He lacked wit quite as much as
eloquence, but he announced with a
cheeky smile that he “bad the wtflk-over
in England,” and he spoke of the prince
as “a dear old chap—a particular friend
of mine.” His speech was a marvel of
old conundrums and stele newspaper
Jokes, but he was so funny notwithstand
ing that the laughter of the students rang
through the building. Fire minutes later
he was Talmage. exhorting his listeners to
repent, “for the devil stood st every man’s
elbow and hell yawned to receive the soul
that hesitated."
“Before 1 bring this man out of this
state,” aaid Dr. Hammond to the class.
“I want to show yon how, If I ao will it.
1 can influence him even after his return
to aelf-conaciousnesa. Listen to roe.” he
aaid emphatically to the subject. “Three
minutes after 1 withdraw my power over
you you will tell me that my face is black.
Do yon bear? Three minute# later!”
He touched the subject on the shoul
der. the man raiaed his bead as If just
awakening, and looked about him won
daringly. Half a dozen students had out
their watches, and they watched them
attentively while they listened to the con
versation between the subject and the
physician.
“Yon remember nothing?”
“Not a thing. But I feel very tired,and
I’d like a glass of water, fcr my mouth is;
perched as If 1 bad a fever.”
“Yon shall have that presently. What
did yon remember hearing last, when yon
came to yourself Just now ?”
“Let me see. Oh, yea. I thought yon
had just finished your definition of hyp
notism. Oh, but doctor”—and be stood
up and whispered something in Dr. Ham
mood’s ear.
“I don't hear yon. Speak louder.”
“Your (ace in black.” be eaid apologet- 1
ically, “and I thought yon wouldn’t like
to go on lecturing with a streak across
your none.” Three minutes had passed
to a second.
“Ob, you’re mistaken; Uyre’s nothing
on my face.”
“That’s so,” replied the subject with a
smile; “it must here been a shadow.”
“Now, would you like to know what
you did daring the lest hour? You rode
a horse end broke your heed, you stabbed
a men, you forged a check, you were In
geraoll. Depew and Talmage. and made
some remarkable speeches. You did all
this, and you remember”—
“Nothing.” wne the answer, in a com
ically helpless tone, as the subject
scratched his head. —New York World.

Time—Evening.
Enter Allen Adair.
Mabel—Good evening, Mr. Adair; I
hardly expected any callers this evening,
it is so stormy.
Allen—l hod no idea the weather was
so I Mid when I started out. There is no
rain, but the wind is very high.
Mabel—Mamma says it is going to rain;
her—her rheumatism in her barometer.
Allen—l suppose rheumatism and kin
dred diseases must be effected by electri
cal conditions of the atmosphere.
Mabel—Probably. What wonderful
progress electrics! science is making now!
I hear we are to have not only electric
street railways, but electric trunk lines
as well.
Alien—They will come next. I never
bear the expression "trank line” that 1
do not think of a line to carry tranks.
Mabel—The same way With me. 1 think
of a picture of a big railway station full
of trunks and people going to Montreal
and Quebec. Were you ever there?
Allen—l never got further into Canada
than the north bank of Niagara Falls.
Yoa have been there, I know.
Mabel—Yea, indeed; it was glorious!
Alien—l wonder if they will ever utilise
that great water power?
Mabel—l believe the consent of the
state must be obtain*!; a gentleman told
papa something about it
Allen—That may be an easy matter or
a hard matter, depending on who asks
for it Wheels within wheels are to be
found everywhere in politics now, and
the few role the many. It ta the same
way with the general government. The
few declare war and the many do the
fighting.
Mabel—Yes; 1 wonder if there will be
any more trouble about Samoa 7
Allen—There might be. I don’t think
Germany would bsalute about a war with
anybody; the young emperor is anxious
for laurels. Speaking of emperors, I see
the emperor of China is to he married to
I don’t know how many wives.

Allen—The Japanese, however, are
quite civilised. I understand, though,
the Chinese are the older race.
Mabel—Ob, yes; they ar» almost the
first race, are they not?
Allen—l don’t know, really; I suppose
no one does. What strange civilisations
the prehistoric races must have had,
Judging from the few traces left I Every*
thing tells of love of animal comfort,
combined with elaborate preparations for
offense and defense. Men seem to have
been at war from the beginning.
Mabel—l notice the pictures of prehis

were well provided with weapons of at

Allen—Yn; it was all feeding and
being fed on; bat, no donbt, in an earlier
era, when the earth’a cruet was still

then have been a peaceful existence for

The following extract from the diary
of Mias Ruth Gilbert, aged eighteen, may
possibly have a familiar ring in the can
of other young ladies of her own age and
tastes
“ January I.—Decided to look over my
old papers and letters to-day, in order
to born what were not valuable. Found
in my treasure box a bunch of dried
violets, labeled ’June 12. A. G. ll.’
"Who could A. O. H. have been?
Not Agnes Harvey, I'm sore. She’s too
prosaic to have given me violets, and
I’m sure I shouldn’t have wanted to
keep them if she had.
"Then there was a knot of bine rib
| bon done up in silver paper, and marked
ITo be burned at my death.’ It seems
i terribly unromantic to burn it while I’m
! alive, especially as I haven’t the least
idea why I kept it. What could H have
been? Perhaps it was our {lass badge
in the preparatory year—no, that was
yellow—or a bit of tpy dress at the first
school reception—or, or—l give it up I
"I’ve been looking over old esaiuina
■ tion papers and compositions, too. One
paper had the marginal note, ’Always
' remember what we did. in the recitation
room No. Four on the ninth of April.’
Now, what could it have been? I don’t
think I’m more forgetful than most pen*
pie, but some of these reminiscences are
beyond me.
"My old album, too, la foil of notes
Icnn’t understand. Kale Whittier has
put initials in all the corners of ths
page she need, and though they must
have meant something once, I’ve no idea
what it could have been. Laura Deane
wrote ‘Remember smoked herrings.’
What covld we have bad to do with
smoked herrings?
“To tell the truth, I don’t believe it
pays to be eo sentimental end have no
many secrete if thie ie all it amouota to.
Who want* to s*ve dried flowers if. in
three years, she can’t tell why she did it,
or make a note of wonderful happening*
that weren’t important enough to be re
membered without so much trouble?
Not I, for one—though I wouldn’t for
anything have the other girls know I’m
growing so prosaic.’’
—Go and examine those elegant gold
watches at Bedfleld's. They are daisies,
and as cheap! Remember, they are war
ranted as represented or no trade.
