The Physiological Tolas of nn Active, Well Imnslnatlon, The wholesome and stimulating influence of a well guided imagination has been strongly urged by a writer in The Journal of tho American Medical Assoriation, from which tho followinginteresting statements) are gleaned: ' Tyndal says that those who have de-nounced the imagination because they havo seen its disastrous effect on weak ves-ne- "might with equal justice point to ex-ploded boilers as an argument against the use of steam." But the weak vessels wrecked by imapnuation are really fewer than is commonly supposed. Now and neain some erratic genius of highly strung nervous temperament gives himself up to the pleasures of Imagination till lie be-comes intoxicated with them and staggers over the boundary of sanity; but for one case of insanity caused by excess of imagination thcro a dozen caused by want of it Apa-thetic dullness and torpor of mind are apt to deepen into dementia. A vulgar error as to the nature of insani-ty has perhaps conduced to exaggeration as to the dangers of imagination. Visitors to asylums invariably arrive expecting to find growths of morbid invention and be-lief, wild, tangled and luxuriant as a trop-ical forest, and leave much disappointed by tho barrenness of the land, for the in-sane are the least imaglnativo of beings. At rare intei valsa madman is encountered who dazzles all around him by the me-teoric brilliancy of his conceptions; but, na a rule, the lunatic is as dull as a stone, lie is tho virtim of a fixed idea, or his de-lusions pursuo a threadmill round, or oc-cur in groups so unvarying that, if yoa have ascertained one of them, you can pre-dict all the rest. His mind is a blank or a blurred and unreadable page, or his fan- - cies, if they come thick in the tumult of mania, are so disjointed or huddled to-gether as to defy recognition. Idiocy is the absolute negation of im-agination, and insanity undermines and destroys or enfeebles it more or less, and when we try to drive out insanity the first thing we do is to invoke imagination's aid, for moral treatment consists mainly in ap-peals to this faculty, and fully acknowl-edges its iiygienic uses. The first recorded cure of melancholia was by the harp of David, and today in every lunatic hospital worth the name per-sistent efforts are made by music, by pic-tures, by poetry and the drama to stimu-lut- e the imagination and thus "cleanse the stuffed bosom of that perilous stuff that weighs upon the heart." convention. If the attendance is and the proceedings harmonious, the result will be of great benefit to the county." "Who do you think will be nominated for judge?" old John asked. "Neither of tho candidates that have been named. We have better timber than iiny of those fullers." "Well, said the major, yawning. "I reckon we hotter go to bed. so as to be in triiu for the- work "1 will show you the room," tho old man remarked, arising. The politicians were shown into an upper room, and the old man, placing a candle on the mantelpiece, bade them good-nig- and went down stairs. "What noiso was that?" tho major asked when the old man had quitted the room. "1 didn't hear any noiso," the colonel answered. . '1 did; it sounded like some one gasp-ing for breath." He might have heard a noise might have heard old John struggling to sup-press his laughter. j ".Suppose wo go to bed," said the major. "All right. You go ahead and I will blow out the candle." They talked for sometime before lying down; then, after a long silence, the col-onel uttered a deep growL Tho major reached over and gave him a rake with the comb. "Wbat the deuce are you doing?" ex-claimed the colonel, springing up in bed. "What do you moan?" And in his rage he began to grate his teeth. Tho major, supposing that he was get-ting ready to begin biting, reuched over and gave him another rake. "You infernal idiot!" yelled the colo-nel, feeling for the major's hair, "if I don't wool you I'm a shoto!" "What are you doing?" howled tbe major. "Let go, or I'll hurt you! Quit, I tell yon! Haven't you got any sense?" The major had found his hair. "I'll let you, know what it is to rake the life out of mo with a crosscut saw." "I was doing it to oblige you, you confounded wolf! Let go my hair!" "Oblige me! Do you take me for a saw log? Look out! If you hit me again I'll pull every hair out of your head!" They tumbled out on tho floor, rolled over and over, and then overturned a tottering old wardrobe that came down upon them with a crash. The major swore that he was dead, and the colonel yelled for a light, but no light came. Had they listened they might havo heard another noiso that sounded as if some one wore breathing hard. The old man was in the hall shaking tho railing of the stairway. Tho major was the first to scramble to his feet. "I will throw you out of this window!" he exclaimed. "And if I can find my pistol I'll shoot tho top of your head off!" howled the colonel. This threat bo frightened the major that ho gathered up his clothes as best he could and rushed from tho room. "Why, what's the matter?" the old man asked when the major came down. "Nothing, only 1 am going away to got a cannon and then come back and blow that fool into eternity." "Did he try to bite you?" "Ho tried to kill me, that's what he tried to do." "Why didn't you rake him?" "I did rake him." "Humph!" grunted the old man; "he must have lost his peculiarity. What, you are not going out in such a night as this?" "Yes, I am, for if I see that fool again I'll have to cut his throat. Uood-by.- " Shortly after the major left, the colonel came down. "Why, look hore," said ho; "I growled just as you told me to do, and I wish 1 may die if that fellow didn't come within one of ripping my life out of me." "Mighty sorry to hear it. Ho must have changed since 1 know'd him so well." When the convention met next day the major and the colonel fought each other so violently thnt neither of them could win, and at an opportune time, old John Perdue stepped in and received the nomination. Opio t Read in New York World. COMBING THE COLONEL. There was a great political fermont in Simpson county, Ky., over the approach-ing election of a county judge. The nominating convention was to meet on Saturday, and on Friday night two well known politicians caught in a rain storm stopped at the house of old John Perdue. The politicians, Maj. Bloodgood and CoL Noix, were sly candidates for the coveted position so s!y, in fact, that neither one knew of the schemes of tho other. After supper, while old John and his guests were sitting on the porch talking over the coming strugglo and listening to a wet katydid that held vesper ser-vices in a locust tree, old John, getting up and stretching himself, said to the major: "Lot me see you a moment, please." Tho major followed him to the end of the gallery. "Major," old John whis-jiere- "I am compelled to tell you some-thing. You gontlemon are welcome to stay with me as long as yon like, but ability to accommodate cannot always lie measured by willingness to do so. The truth is I haven't but one spare bed." "But can't the colonel and 1 sleep to-gether?" the major rejoined. "Yes, you can, but the truth is he colonel is awfully peculiar." "How so?" "Well, as rational as ho appears while stirring about he's a strange man in bod. Our families, you know, are well ac-quainted, and I therefore know all about him. Hispeculiarity comes from a scare he received when he was a child. It seems that a dog once tried to bite him, and now, just before he dozes off to sleep, ho begins to growl, and unless something is done to stop him ho begins to bite fearfully." 'Humph," the major grunted, "that's edd, but what can be done to stop him alter ho begins to growl?" "Well, his brother told me how he used to work it. He always took a coarse comb to bed with him and would rake the colonel with it when ho began to growl. As strange as it may seem, it was tho only thing that would quiet him. The family doctor said that a comb was somehow the ouly thing that would start the blood to circulating." "That's very odd. And would it quiet him?" "Would mako him act just like a lamb. Why, ho uster insist that his brother should take tho comb to bed with him. Ho don't liko to have any one mention the freakish misfortune, as he always terms it, but it would be doing him a great favor if you would tako the comb to bed with you and give him a l ake in case he should begin to growl. 1 4im telling you this because 1 am your i'riend, and because I know that you are good timber, ami especially because 1 hope that you may secruro his influence if you should ever desire any office. Don't you know that we always respect the man that understands our peculiar-ities before we uro asked to explain them to him? lie i.i heusitive that way, and if he soos that you understand him he will then know that you have had your eye on him, havo held him in your mind." "All right. You got me the comb, and I will go through with the cere-mony when the time comes." "Here's one, put it in your pocket." Tlioy returned to the colonel, and after a while, when tho major stepped into the house to get a drink of water, the old man said: "You and the major are good friends, I RTO glad to Fee.". "Yes," replied the colonel, "I. think he is a first rate fellow." "Glad yon like him, for you and he will have to sleep together for the fact is I have only one spare bed." "That will be ull right I reckon," said the colonel. "Yes, but the truth is the major is the most peculiar fellow you ever saw." "In what way?" "As a bedfellow. I am very intimate with his family and know all about him. It seems that he had ft nervous trouble when he was a boy, and could not go to sleep until some one growled like a dog. I have known him to lie tossing in bed for hours at a lime, and then when I would go to his bed and growl ho would doze off like a lamb." "I never before heard of an affliction o strange," said tho colonel. "I either, but then it is a very ensy matter to relieve him. He and a fellow named Buck Johnson were once oppos-ing candidates for prosecuting attorney. Well, they had to sleep together one night. ' Buck knew of his peculiar afflic-tion, and shortly after they went to Hd Buck began to growl. The major didn't ay anything that night, but next day he withdrew from tho race, declaring that ho would not run against so good a man us Buck. "Yon don't say sol" exclaimed the colonel. "Yes I do, and know it to be a fact I would dvisu you to humor him in the lame way.'' t ' "I'll do so." "Hush, he's coming back." "We are going to have more rain, I think," said the mjor, as he resumed his eat. "yes," the colonel responded, "but I fcuue that it will not interfere with the. Nutrients In Klglit Proportion. The New York Grocer nays that the fried fishballs or the brown bread and baked beans of New Kngland are found to con-tain nearly the right proportions of nutri-ents required to maintain an adult work-ingina- n in proper condition, according to Voit's standard. The pease porridge, sea-soned with savory herbs, in which a little bit of pork is stewed, is also consistent with that standard, as are the hog and hominy of the southern negro, in the pro-portions !ii which it is served one peck of meal to three and one-hal- f pounds of bacon for a week's supply.

SOCIAL ETIQUETTE. l'racticul otis for Thoae WIiq Give or Altcntl Aflm-nuo- Ueceptinns. Invitations for afternoon receptions should lie sent out three or four days in advance, and a longer time if the affair is to lie formal. The invitation may be writ-ten thus: : Mra. Lewis Wilson, ; j AT boms ; : Nor. 18, from 8 until 6. : : This invitation may be written ou a call-ing card, inclosed in a whito envelope aud delivered at the house, if in the city. At the hall door a servant should be sta-tioned to admit each guest before she has had time to ring. This servant also direct the way to thu "iiuroliing room," where the wraps are romoved by another servant who takes charge of them and assists in various ways. The bouuet and gloves are almost invariably worn, the gloves to cor-respond with the i,sl.of the toilet in tone. The only ones privileged to appear unbou-nded in a large r. ieption are the ladies re-ceiving with the hostess or assisting her to entertain her guests. They should always bo bareheaded. Street dressesor the plainer reception dresses are worn. The hostess slionid stand near the en-trance of the reception room and extend a welcome to eai-- one as she arrives, aud the guest should then lie introduced to others in the room, especially if she be a stranger. In that case an unusual amount of ntten. tiou should bo givc'i her. A guest can go. at any time after the lunch h;is been served, but under no ciiv.umstan) vemain longer than .(lie appointed time. In the winter time tho house should be darkened, and lighted by gas, candies or lamps. At a largo afternoon reception the guests are invited out to lunch in pat-tie-s ut dif-ferent times by an assisting friend of the hostess. The hostess herself never takes refreshment, except ut small aud informal receptions, where all sit down at lunch at the snuia time. Usually an unmarried lady sits at either end of the table, ho pours ( tho tea, coffee or chocolate. In taking leave of the hostess each guest should in a few words express her enjoy-ment at being present ou thfu occasion, t iieu pas out, and utter putting on wrap Jipnri without going into the reception win again. Evening receptions, says Good Houss-keeping- , which is authority for the fore-giiin-ajv conducted in the same way, that gentlemen are invited,. . A Notml Doctor Who Wur Shy. Abernethy, an eminent London sur-geon of the last century, was noted for his independence and for his indifference to people of rank and wealth. A certain nobleman once presented himself at the surgeon's office and without waiting for his turn demanded to see Abernethy. He was refused, and when it came his turn he entered the consulting room in. great anger. "Do you know who I am?" he asked. "No, sir!" was the cool reply, "but I am John Abernethy, surgeon, and if you wish to consult me, I am now ready to hear what you havo to say in vonr turn." i'et this man, so indifferent to lords j and ladies, when he had to lecture be-- I fore soveral hundred medical students was often painfully embarrassed.

It may not be 'generally known that much of tho sculpture of ancient Athens was originally painted in bright colors. Until recently archaiologista maintained the theory that tho refined art of the Greeks had found its expression in the pure form of the marble, disregarding color; and any evidences to the con trary were destroyed, as only giving rise to troublesome theories, subversive of the true worship of Greek art. Within tho past few years, however, soveral in-teresting pieces of painted sculpture have been discovered which have given rise to some interesting speculations among students and artists. Harpers. Say "Thank Yon." I suppose when you do a friend a good turn, and he issobusy enjoying its bene-fits that he goes oft' in a hurry and for-gets to say vThauk you," you are likely to say to yourself, "I'll next try my hand on somebody at least who can get breath enough before ho eats his cherries to look back on the orchard." Ingratitude is the great trial of parents with children and of God with man. I'd rather a man would hurl "Thanks awfully" at me than to keep dumb. Even conventional and slang thanks are better than utter discourtesy and blank ingratitude. Lewist on Journal, A Strungo I'oliivltlbuce. A curious coincidence is said to have occurred in one of the London chess re-- sorts. A gentleman was looking on lor some time at a game being played be-tween two excellent chessists. He left them still playing. . The next day he started for a long sojourn abroad. He was away nearly hvo years, during which time ho had been round the world. On his return to London ho went to the same chess resort that he had formerly visited, aud there at the same table as before were the same two players whom he had five years before left at the game.
