Curious Derangement of the Will.

I had once under my observation the case of a gentleman who could not sign his name unless he first rose from his chair and turned round three tunes. As he occupied a position of trust, and one which required him to affix his signature to papers very often in the course of the day, the circumstances caused him great annoyance. The disorder was developed very suddenly, and quite unaccountably. He was, one night, after a day of excitement and fatigue, about to sign a check which he had just drawn up, when he found to his astonishment, i that he could not form the letters of his name. He pushed the check aside, and began to copy some words fronx-a book which lay on the table before him. He did this with his usual facility. But the moment he attempted to write his name to them, he was powerless. Alarmed at what he thought was a symptom of some serious brain disease, he threw down his pen, and rising from his chair, walked up and down the floor, trying to analyze his feelings.■ There was no pain in his head, his thoughts were collected, and there was no excitement except that developed by the curious circumstances just occurred. Determined, if possible, to overcome the difficulty, he again essayed to sign the check, and, to his great relief, accomplished the undertaking without the slightest apparent effort. Emboldened by his success, he tried a second time to write his name, but a second time he found it impossible to do so. Reflecting upon the matter, he recalled the fact that it was only after he had paced the floor he had been able to write his name. So he walked across the room two or three times, and then found that he could make his signature with entire ease. Further experience showed him that it was not the walking that was necessary, but that it was essential he should turn round three tiroes. Without these preliminary gyrations it was impossible for him to write his name, though perfectly able to write page after page of other matter. The condition existed for about a month, and then by my advice he stopped writing altogether and took a voyage to Europe. He remained absent several months, during which period he never put pen or pencil to paper. On the way back a subscription was taken up on the ship for some charitable object, and he was requested to sign the paper. Without reflecting—for if he had, he would not have made the attempt—he took the pen held out to him and wrote his name without the slightest hesitation. After this he had no further trouble. Such cases are. in the present state of our knowledge, absolutely inexplicable. ~ ~ The will is subject to derangement in a manner the very opposite of that which has just been described. It may be so strongly manifested, in one or more directions, as to cause the individual to perpetrate the most terrible crimes, or to perform other acts displeasing to him.— Dr. Wm. A. Hammond, in Youth’s Companion.

A Genuine Love Story

. A young clergyman and his bride were invited guests at a large party given by a wealthy parishioner. In all the freshness and elegance of her bridal wardrobe the young wife shone among the throng, distinguished by her comeliness and vivac.ty and rich attire; and when during tlie evening her young husband drew her aside and whispered to her that she was the most beautiful woman in all the company, and that his heart was bursting with pride and love for her, she thought herself the happiest wife in the world. Ten years later the same husband and wife were guests at the same house, where was gathered a similar gay company. The wife of ten years ago wore •the same dress she had worn on the previous occasion, and of course it had been altered and made over, and was old fashioned and almost shabby. Toil and care and motherhood and pinched circumstances had taken the rosea out of the cheeks and the lithe spring out of her form. She sat apart from the crowd, careworn and preoccupied. Her small hands, roughened with coarse toil, were ungloved, for the minister’s salary was painfully small. A little apart the ten-years’ husband stood and looked at his wife, and, as he observed her faded dress and weary attitude, a great sense of all her patient, loving faithfulness came over his heart. Looking up, she caught his earnest gaze, and noticed that his eyes were filled with tears. She rose and went to him, her questioning eyes mutely asking for an explanation of his emotion; and when he tenderly took her hand and, placing it on his arm, led her away from the crowd and told her how he had been thinking of her as she looked ten years before when she was a bride, and how much more precious she was to him now, and how much more beautiful, for all her shabby dress and roughened hands, and how he appreciated all her sacrifice and patient toil for him and their children, a great wave’of happiness filled her heart, a light shone ■in her face that gave it morn than its youthful beauty, and in all the company there was not so happy a couple as this husband and wife, their hearts and faces aglow from the flaming up of pure sentiment that transfigured and ennobled and glorified all the toils and privation they had endured.— Anon. --

Moslem Women.

The Moslem looks upon woman as an inferior being, unfit to advise him or to share in his pleasures and sorrows. The higher the rank of the Tunisian » lady the less she will be seen in the streets and bazars. As a rule, only women of -the lowest order, beggars, and the wives of the poor country Bedouins, are seen in the streets, and eve i thtese cover their faces with their hands when they meet a European. There is a general belief among Europeans that the Koran prescribes that women should be veiled when they appear in public. This is not the fact, xhe custom is not a religious duty, but a f sbson. The Chamberlain of an exGrund Vizier gave me some curious in formation on this subject. The Pasha’s

wife was taken sick with, the small-pox. A European physician was called; guarded by two eunuchs he was permitted to enter the chamber of the lady. Curtains concealed the bed. The physician insisted upon seeing the face of the suffering woman, but the eunuch refused, giving to the doctor & description of her face. When the doctor asked to see her tongue, here face was covered with a cloth in which a small .hole was cut; through this opening the woman showed her tongue. .When the physician felt her pulse, her hands and arms were covered, and the doctor was asked to close his eyes while counting the pulse. Witchcraft and the charlatanism of bld, cunning women are generally resorted to when women of the harems are sick. Many of the ladies of higher rank Eve and die without setting foot in the streets, or changing their abode, except once, when they leave the paternal roof to go to the house of their husband and master. With the exception of the nearest relatives, no man ever enters the harem.

Snake-Bites in India.

Their thatch and mud houses, with walls often honeycombed by rats, afford a natural shelter to the cobra and krait. The want of light in their houses by night, when nine-tenths of the snake-bites occur; a footstep in the dark; a hand or foot resting over the edge of their low charpoys during sleep—an irresistible temptation to a prowling cobra; the accidental striking or seizure by the hand of a snake while cutting thejr crops, and crop watching by night are among the most common occasions of snake-bite. Often so light is the bite on finger or toe that it is not enough to break sleep, and thus the sleep of life gradually and unconsciously merges into that of death. The poison seems to steal insensibly and painlessly through the system, gradually benumbing .the springs of life, till it brings them to a standstill forever. Nor is there anything left to tell the Cause except the minutest speck, like a flea-bile, only visible to a close examination. In the morning the bitten person may be found either dead or in the last stage of snake-bite poisoning; it may be a dead mother with her living child still clinging to her, drinking in, in the milk, the poison which, even in such a minute quantity, also leaves the child dazed and lethargic for many hours to come. Strange to say, so apathetic are natives (Indian) that often they get bitten and go to sleep again, without thinking more about it, o# the frail chance of the bite being non-poisonous, and so sleep on till their - friends find them, or sleep ceases in death.— All the Year Round.

Worse than Dynamite.

“These dynamite explosions over in England,” said the sleeping-car conductor, “remind me of an old woman and her jug of yeast. She got on at a small station out beyond Steubenville, carrying a gallon jug in her hand, which she told me contained a fine quality of home-made yeast. It was well corked and tied, and the old lady carried it to her berth with her, taking as much care of it as if it had been a babe. An hour or so later, when everybody was asleep, there was the most tremendous explosion ever heard in a sleeping-car, and all the neighbors of the woman had a shower-bath of the frothy stuff from the shattered jug. It was dark, and they thought they were covered with their own blood. Such screaming you never heard, and the old woman herself was the most frightened of the lot. The shaking of the car had made the yeast livelier than dynamite, and an extra heavy lurch had set it off The bed-clothes of four sections had to be changed.”

Impressions of a Day.

That was noble advice which the novelist Charles Kingsley gave when he said: “Try, if you can, not to pass a day without either reading a beautiful poem, or hearing a beautiful song, cr seeing a beautiful picture.” We Venture to think that this may yet be improved upon, for it relates to the culture of self and of our respective faculties. But it is more blessed to give than to receive. So we would say, let us try not to pass a day without doing some beautiful deed of love, however humble; without saying some beautiful w ord of kindness, however quiet or unostentatious ; or without showing others the beautiful picture of consistent character. So we shall be writing poems for God, not only reading men’s poems; composing songs for angels, not only hearing for our pleasure; and painting pictures for eternity, not merely contemplating the faded pictures of time. —Home

In a Gotham Boudoir.

Mrs. Dash (overheard by the Philadelphia Call) — My pet, I wish you would not go with those girls. Miss Dash—Why not, mammal They are real nice. Mrs. Dash—l hear that their father has been arrested for stealing pennies from a money-drawer. Miss Dash—lt is a mean, miserable slander. He had some legal papers served on him, and has been sleeping in a cell because it is cooler there. Mrs. Dash—And he didn't steal any pennies? Miss Dash—No, indeed; he would not descend to such a thing, ne merely diverted $500,000, that’s all. Mrs. Dash—Oh, in that case it is all right. I feared he was a vulgar thief.

Proof Positive.

A small boy testified that the affray took place on a Sunday. “How do you know it was on a Sunday?” “Because that day I had to go to the side door of the saloon to get beer for dinner.” “I don’t know much about the style of gentlemen’s apparel,” said a lady, “but the latest thing in spring overcoats is my husband’s; he never gets in until 1 a. m.” x Young Gkammabian: No; yon cannot say “the shad has risen.” Although it sounds ungrammatical, you will be quite correct in saying “the shad has roes.” ■' , -j

How We Walk.

One of the oddest things about our walk is, that we alternate motion, and that we are as automatic as an old eightday clock in the corner of the kitchen. You may imagine that you walk as you please; nothing of the sort. Nature settled the way ages ago, and ages after you are gone people will “bowl round” in exactly the same way. Start and see. With the movement of the leg you swing the left arm, with that of the left leg the right arm. Now, if the motion be even carelassly observed, it will be found that the right arm swings forward at the same time as the left leg; and when the right leg is. advancing, it is the left arm which accompanies it, 'this is the natural gait, and. to convince one’s self that it is so, it is only requisite to get a friend to walk across the room in the opposite fashion—that is, to swing the right arm forward when stepping out with the right leg, and then, in the same manner, when bringing forwa - . d the left leg to accompany it with the left arm. Such a gait is both unnatural and uncomfortable to the person who tries it, and also ludicrous to the observer who watches the first attempt of the kind. The diagonal movement of the limbs is, therefore, the natural method adopted by man when walking, and it is the first and most apparent fact that one ascertains in studying human locomotion. Similarity in the length of the stride is ffis settled, by the length of the leg, as are the laws of gravitation. Such and such a leg is predestined to step over, in its normal advance, so much ground and no more. We may all imagine we are free agents, physically, but many more things are “ordered from the beginning,” from the color of our hair or the shape of our nose.

Poisoning by Confectionery.

A case has just been decided in one of the Philadelphia courts, in which a well-known confectioner was the defendant in a damage suit brought by a boarding-house keeper, in whose house a number of cases of poisoning occurred after eating cream-puffs prepared by the aforesaid defendant. The testimony showed that the puffs were made on a Saturday morning in June, sent some distance by train, and eaten on Sunday, about 4 p. m.. some thirty hours after being made. All those who partook of them (and it appears that no one ate more than a single puff, some not even that much) were taken violently ill with symptoms of cholera morbus. In a few cases the patients were obliged to remain in bed several days. The case, as presented, clearly showed that the symptoms were due to the puffs. This effect of cream-puffs, when eaten more than twenty hours after being made, is by no means uncommon. Chemical examination of portions of puffs which have caused most decided symptoms, has failed to show any mineral irritant, and it is very evident that the action is due to a decomposition which takes place in the complex articles from which the puffs are made—milk, butter, flour, and eggs. All such fancy articles are liable to become the cause of gastro-intestinal irritation, simulating poisoning; and possibly some of the cases of supposed poisoning from metallic contamination of canned vegetables may be ascribed to a similar cause. In the case just tried, Judge Yerkes very properly ruled that, while the puff's were undoubtedly the cause of the trouble, there was nothing to connect the confectioner with any responsibility’in the •matter, and a nonsuit was granted.— Polyclinic.

Tricks of Hotel-Keepers.

Men who are the special agents of Midas must pay for their whistle in this identical region where old Ben Franklin wrote his immortal fable. Some time ago Mr. J. Lord telegraphed to Venice thus: “Prepare rooms for J. Lord and family.” In eager ecstatic delight the Venetian hotel-keeper prepared the most sumptuous suite of rooms in the hotel. On arriving, Mr. Lord was met at the portals of the hotel with an obsequiousness and bowingdown servile slavery of so-called politeness that he could not comprehend. The rooms fete with flowers, the menu was unique, the orders were awaited and obeyed in a manner most astounding by the vassals, who at each sentence responded demurely and dutifully, “Oui, mi Lord.” When a moment’s privacy was given his “lordship,” he turned to his better half and said: “Look here, my dear, we’ll have to pay through the nose for all this; these fools and flunkies think I am a nobleman, with the title of a lord. I’ll stop it right off!” Down to the official desk went this sensible man, and, looking the manager full in the face, he said: “My name is Mr. John Lord, and I’m a retired merchant; nothing else!” The manager became livid, and fell on the lounge. The unique menu was supplanted by an ordinary bill of fare, the flowers wilted at once, and the rooms occupied by this retired merchant were up two pair back, and the consequences were his whistle cost considerably less than a live lord’s, and was quite as wholesome.— Baltimore Sun.

Senator Blair’s Bill.

While we profess to have a very thorough system for training our children in reading, writing, and arithmetic, the humiliating fact remains that we are far, very far, behind Germany and other States in Europe in the matter of education. Barely two per centTof German people are unable to read and write. In certain portions of our country the illiterate comprise twenty per cent, of our population. To rectify this disgraceful condition of things. Senator Blair has induced the upper branch of Congress to pass an act appropriating some of the surplus in the national treasury to help the schools in the States where the educational systems are defective. It is quite time the nation took this important matter in hand. We cannot expect intelligent verdicts at our popular elections unless the voters are educated. This is a matter that should not be left to the local authorities exclusively. The Republic has a vital interest in that matter, and its representatives should see to it that provision is made for properly educating every child born to the com* munity.—Z>e7noreafß Monthly.

German Sundays.

i Most devoutly I sat through my first church service in Europe. It was in the glorious Cologne Cathedral. All About me—sometimes kneeling on the floor, sometimes standing—were officers in uniform, tourists, ladies in beautiful black toilets, bareheaded serving- maids, country women with their lunch-baskets beside them, peasants in gay costumes with knitting work under their arms—for country women had come to mass only as a prelude to the afternoon holiday in the park. People walked about and chatted; now and then there was music, from a boy choir - high np, and sometimes the intoning of the priests reached me as from a distant building, and there came an -odor of incense as from some far-away land of perfume. Could anything be more unlike our own home Sunday service ? But can we say that ours to them is less strsnge than theirs to us? “You put on your best clothes to go to church in America, don’t you ? How very queer!” said a German Romanist to me one day. ’ It is with a pleasurable satisfaction, and a great longing too, that one turns on Sunday toward home when in Germany. The American Sunday they have no conception of. The good Lutheran pastor will preach you a sermon Sunday morning that will make you cry, and ask you to a game of cards with him before the organ is done playing. Ladies whom I visited sewed, had their dresses cut and fitted, and made no difference whatever between Sunday and week day, except that there must always be a dinner party on the first. The shops are open; indeed, Sunday is about the only day in the week you can be sure of doing shopping in some places, since every saint’s day is carefully kept by shutting up stores, going to mass in the morning and spending the rest of the day in the gardens. The Lord’s day only does not seem worth keeping. Said a young gentleman to me one: “Do I understand you that you can’t begin a journey, go to the theater, buy a coat if you neeed one, or give a ball on Sunday, in America?” I assured him he would not be expected to do those things. “And that is what you call a free country, is it?” he retorted.—Mrs. Jf.

Why He Did Not Sing.

A good story is told of the great tenor, Gayarre, who maintains his popularity in Pau's, and has just refused an offer of an engagement at $6,000 a month at the Grand Opera. He was recently invited out to dinner by a Parisian baroness, who, during the repast, asked him sweetly if he would not be so kind as to sing something for the amusement of her guests after dinner. “Most willingly, madame,” made answer Gayaire. But dinner once ended and the guests returned to the draw-ing-room, he sauntered up to the piano in a careless fashion, and, while apparently investigating some works of art near it, he contrived to lock it and abstract the key. Later in the evening the hostess claimed the fulfilment of his promise. Gayarre rose with the greatest of alacrity and hastened to to the piano. Alas! it was locked. Search was made for the key in every direction, but naturally in vain. One of the guests proposed that the lock should be broken, but to this the hostess objected strongly, as the case was a very handsome one, and she did not wish to have it spoiled. So the evening passed off without any music, and when Gayarre took his departure he contrived to drop the key in the ante-chamber. There it was found the next morning by the servants, to the great amazement of the baroness, who could not imagine how it had got there. —Lucy Hooper’s Letter.

He Failed to Fail.

A German tailor in a village in Canada failed a few days ago and called a meeting of his creditors. An investigation seemed to show that his liabilities were $4,000 and his assets SI,OOO. “It thus appears,” said one of his creditors, “that you can pay 25 cents on the dollar.” “Vhel, I doan’ figure like dot,” replied the tailor. “How do you figure?” “Vhy, I pays feefty cents on der dollar.” “How can you do that when your assets only allow for one-fourth?” _ “Vhell, I prings der odder money down from der house!” “He was not permitted to fail— Esser, County Statesman.
