Ella Wheeler Wilcox A STBAXGE STORY. BV G. W. S. AXGELLIt was one of our Friday night symposiums at tbe Cosmos Club, and as our particular clique was made up of Merton. from the Geological Survey; Herring, of the Fish Commission, together with Ixng, from the Agricultural Bureau; De Forrest, of tfie Army Medical Museum, and myself, then serving as Washington correspondent for a New York paper, it is needlesa to say that the talk had run the entire gamut of art, literature aud science, and had for the moment settled on the belief in dual personalities. "I tell you, gentlemen," said Merton, with the authoritative air by which he always attempted ' to settle questions under discussion, '"that while I am willing to admit that there may be some things almost Impossible to prove or disprove scientifically, yet this talk about dual personality, subconscious mind and all such stun is. vulgarly speaking, simply rot." And he lay back in his chair with a selfaatisfied air, as though there was nothing more to be said on the sub ject. Ixng took up the argument, and the debate grew rather warm as the pros and cons were laid down in that excathedra way which we young men are apt to affect. Dr. De Forrest had thus far taken no part in the discussion, but had smiled once or twice at our assertions in a way that assured us, who knew him so well, that he had a good story to tell If we could only draw him out. "Come, Doctor," said Ixmg. as he ordered a fresh round of brandies and soda for the crowd, "you ought to know something about this question, for you told us last week thgt you had studied under Charcot when you were in Taris." De Forrest selected a fresh perfect from the box at his side, lighted It In his usual careful way and blew a few rings of smoke, which he watched Boat lazily toward the ceillngrbefore he spoke. "Well, boys," he began, "as Merton has just said, there are some things which we cannot as yet decide by purely physical methods. We cannot weight the soul in our most delicate balance, though the scale sinks if we add but thefractionof a hair.norcan we by our most subtle reagents .analyse that vital spark we call life in our laboratories. I do not care to-rilght to speak of the many curious phenomena which I witnessed during my studies in Paris, for they might furnish you with a clew to the story which is to follow; but I'll tell you a little Incident In real life which ocoured when I was very young in my New York practice, and then leave the question for you to decide. "When I established myself in New iork, back in the sixties, fresh from my studies at Vienna, I joined the Bohemia Club, That was not its name, but as none of you are old enough to remember the club it 'Til .1 - i . me i.oerij 01 enangmg the names .- - " lui obvious reasons. "We were a rather jolly crowd at the Bohemia, for we workt i, . different lines all dav and thon at the club in the evenings for relaxation and to compare notes. You see we were young then, and not authorities In our several branches, as you all are here," and he smiled in his quizzical way as he looked round our little circle, There were two Southerners in the club." he continued, "both M. D's. and although greatly alike in their features and niarvelously so in their dress, they were totally different in i-bar-a ter. and I suppo- it wontd be hard

He was loTed by every one at 2ie club, where we knew him as the mot of honor and generous to a fault. "Davis, on the other hand, though he was ef the same olive bued type ai4 enough like Whiting in features to be his twia brother, had a sneering ejpressien on bis tace, and when be Iok ed at you with his eye naif closed ari that cynical smile on his lip he nude me think of the copperhead of hi; own Louisiana swamps.

'It happened mat Davis and Whitinz had never met at the club, as each came but seldom, but we often chaffed on? about 2he other, and from their 'facial resemblenc dubbed them the two Dromios. Jekyll aud Hyde would hare been more appropriate, but this wis long before Stevenson's book was wirteu. 'Whiting alwsys resented any chance allusion to his doubt", although good matured at tte rest of otir chaff, and etmed to conbt tha actual existence of Davla. whom be had heard of but ntvar mat, and thought we were sknply trying to put up a game on him. Naturally the more be scoffed at the reality of Davis the more we nagged him, until finally in sheer desperation he proposed to give a quiet little dinner for four of us. at which Robinson, an artist and fellow club-member, myaelf, Davis and Wbiting were to be the quartet. i "Davla promised to be there, if possible, and said he was already acquainted with Whiting or course by reputat'on only; he added with that cynical smile we all hated. On the night of the dlnuer Robinson and I were on hand early, for we were anxious to see the meeting !etween Davis and Whiting, and had made several bets with the other fellows as to whether Davis would snow up. "Whiting appeared punctually as usual, but though we waited until midBight Davis failed to materialize. Of course this settleu the matter in Whiting's mind for the time being, xml he made us set up several bottles of wiue to drink to the health of his mythical counterpart, as he called him. "The next night, however, he came to the club, and drawing Kobirisun and me aside, said: "Boys, this matter has gone too far. 1 likea joke, but I think it is rather rough for you to keep it up.' And on our expressing our ignorance of his meaning he showed us a letter from Davis regretting his Inability 10 be present the night lefore, and saying that lie was too ill at the moment to make his regrets iu person. " "Bur. my dear fellow." said Robinson, "if you really think us guilty of tnis, letter will you kindly explain how it happens to be written on your own llfllu'ry1 "Whiting gi-Hhled up the note and seemed frightened for the moment, for at the head of the letter was his ways wore on his watch chaiu. He looked at it searchingly. and then left the club without a word. "After this occurrence we ceased bantering him alxuit Dayis and passed tne v-oru around to the other fellows t djtp it. for we saw that the matter wrned him greatly and feared the effect of our chaff on his high strung.

"I felt that this was a most feeble excuse, but could think of nothing else, and of course Miss Wiley was too poll'' to express her surprise at the strange request.
