Manyskep- i tic* aver i hat such a condition is impos sible. hut several physicians of this city 1 and Paris daciare that the diagnosis of 1 this mentai disorder is well defined. Dr. ' William A. Hammond being asked his 1 opinion on the subject said: "There is ' no doubt that amnesia, or double con- 1 Bciousness, exists in both a chronic and ' acute form. It is something more than i absent-mindedness or temporary insanity. I have classitivd it as a mild form of epilepsy. Many cases have come un- i der my notice. Among them was that 1 of a patient in a large mercantile establishment who left his office at eleven o'clock to eet a signature 1 to a paper from a gentlfman whose j place of business was distant only a j lew minute-.1 walk. He bad not returned at three o'clock, and it was sub- j sequenMy ascertained that he had visited i the office, obtained the signature and I had left in apparently good health at! ; 11:30 He did not appear at his own! office till nearly five o'clock. The last j thing he re olleeted was passing S:. Paul's church, at the corner of Broad- j way and Vesey street. It was subse- ; ouentlv found that he had gone to j Brooklyn, had visited a newspaper office j there and purchased a newspaper. He ; had then returr pd 'o New York, got into j an omnibus at Fulton ferry, left it at tne < corner of Twenty-third street, entered i the F ttli Avenue hotel, and while there i recovered his recollection. 'An even more interesting rase oo-!; y cuned in the autumn of 1875. The! ?? patient, who was a manulacturer, left I his fiffice at 9 a. m. 'o buy some j bulbs He remained away cie.it days, ! nn ir>ipr> w-m obtained ol him dur AiTiX. that time. It was subsequently .^ ^Aascertained that ho had been to thcajp-^JMJ^rs, hotels where ho slept, and stores 1 rtH^^vhere he made purchases, and that lie EsKSHpul m^de a journ- y ot 100 miles from ^w^V^ew York. Losing his ticket he was j put ofl" at a way station, and returning I to New York, passed the night at a j hotel, and on the eighth day at about | ten o'clock made his appearance at his office. He had no recollection of what | had occurrcd. although he had acted coherently and had drank nothing intoxicating except a glass of ale which he had with some oysters in a restaurant on Sixth avetiUe. "Dr. Azara, of Bordeaux, also tells of j a young woman under his treatment who had periodical attacks of amnesia, j In her case ihere w*re two separate s'hp^ of existence. She lived for a few weeks in her normal life and then without a. moiLtiit's warning relapsed into h.^r second state, in *hich latter condition she remained three months at a t.imp. This second state was attended by n sudden < lunge of character which Easscd off suddenly when sl?2 resumed er normal condition." " Is tlie disease incurable?" asked the reporter. By no mrans; it's treatment is quite simple. These epileptic paroxysms sre similar to trance, ecstasy or catalepsy. They arp not directly dangerous to life, but they tend to impair the - mind. The action ot the mind is probably automatic, althoueh the putient under'.he influence ot this double conecicusnfps acts as intelligently as ever he did. On rassine into the second state it is not an uncommon occurrence for the patient to remember the last ' t'aing he wa$ doing when he was in his normal condition. A gentleman ??Tui]e f?tertfWfii5" ?aaftijate_at the breakfast table was seizru with Uieae ' pecu iar epi'eptic paroxysms. He remained in the state of second consciousness tor several hours and on recovering was able to take up the thread of the . conversation where he had left it. In the interval he had acted sanely, but as a totally diflerent being. Only persons . - of nervou." temperament art subject to amnesia. Under certain conditions the patient assumes traits of character nna!og? us to the traits of the person in whose presence he has passed into the state oi second consciousness, liie patient in his second liie is generally in- 1 sensible to rain. I have seen a woman so affected whose shawl I could pin to the nape of her neck without her knowing anything about it. The disea e ot second consciousness is very im portant in its meoico-legal aspects. It v will r.ffoid much food for the iaculty to study for many years to come. It is analogous to sleep-drunkenness and I think that many crimes can be traced to either one or the other cause. The suddem waking ot persons asleep is very 1 dangerous. They are impelled to some : instantaneous uction. and ol what action that may be take the example of the ' German who. being suddenly awakened, took up an ax and brained his son. The woman in London who threw all her children out ot the top story window 1 ' . mu*t have passed into this condition of second consciousness, as did probably the woman in J<-rsey City who alter 1 smearing her children with kerosene vii ' set them on fire. 1 am perfectly willing ' to certify that any ne possessed ot : a*nne.?ia Is thoroughly irresponsible, 1 although his actions, to tboss who don't ' know the perse>n. may appear perfectly r intelligible.'1? 2?ew York World. 1 I ????

II anybody will look at the end of hi' humb lie will find that the surface is inged with little thread-like ranees ol tills, wound round and round in tinj spirals. If he will take a magnifying rlass and examine them closely he will ind that there is a good deal of individ la.ity in the way in whicLt these are irranged. No two thumbs in all tin ivorld are exactly alike. The miniature uountnin ranges are as fixed and do Jicieu as uie Aips or uit- on-uas, iu< jeography of the thumb as unmistakable. Now the Chinese have made use ol :his fact for establishing: a rogu s1 gallery. Whenever a criminal is examined by the law an impression is made of his thumb Smeared with lampblack, partially wiped and then pressed down on a piece of white paper, an engraving of the thumb is made and kept in the police record. It serves just the same purpose v^hich i? served by our photographing our burglars and pickpockets. The accused can be identified wi'.h great certainty. Nothing s ^ortof mutilating r burning the thumb can obliterate its features. Sometimes a ghastly proof of guilt is furnished, a murderer redhanded with his crime may touch his finger's end upon a white wall, and so leave in the color of hia guilt a photograph on the accusing wail. IIi3 signature is lelt just as unmistakably as if he had signed the bond of his iniquity, and thus g eat crimes h vebeen brought to licht, and deeds of blood made to tell their own stoiy. Bu this individuality in the skin of fhe tip of the thumb, strongly marked as it is, yet admits a strong family likeness. Brothers and sifters who will take impressions of their thumbs will find resemblances among each othev that they will not find when comt-aring them with the thumbs of strangers! Eren thus minutejy does that strange thing, family likeness, desccnd. What woncter is it faces look alike, voices sound alike; how can it seem strange that members of the same family should have similarities of temper, of mental aptitudes tiu nereai.ary uim'uscs, wucu such minor peculiarities as the texture at the end of the thumb, and its ranges of hills, should also hwe family resemblances in the midst of their infinite diversities. '* The hairs of our head are ail numbered,' and not only so, but each hair, if examined with a powerful magnifyii-p glass, shows peculiarities as strong a* the trees of a forest. No two are exactly alike. Everything, from tiic smallest to the greatest, ii impressed with a spccilic character and individuality. The Creator s invention is exhaustless, and He no more repeats Hirnselt in the geography of a thumb than in the geography of a continent.

" I haven t smoked for five years,' y( was his repiy. " I'm down on tobacco g, as thoroughly as you ever was." w " Good ! Tell me about it. " We locked arms and sauntered up and down the platform. Dropping the dialogue, this was in substance his story: Qj " It wasn't a sudden c< nversion. J gc never was quite so easy in mind ovei the habit?when you used to banter me about it?as I pretended to be I intended all the time to *aper off when 1 ,e got home from the army, and not smok( so much. And I did. Smoked less ir l{ three weeks than I used in one. But one summer I went off on some business for our company, which kept me up in the mountains, among the charcoa; " burners, three days longer than I expected. I go out of cigars, and couldn't T get any for love or money. In forty- tc eight hours I was more uncomfortable w and unstrung ttiat 1 ever was oeioru ir. ray life. I actually borrowed an old fa Irishman's pine, and tried to smoke it. j< I thought of that miserable summer P which we sprnt crawling about the g trenches in Virginia, and I wished I was ' there again with a cigar in my mouth! w Then I began to realize what a sliaraefu. w bondage 1 was in to a mere self indul- S gence. I?a fellow who secretly prided F himself on his self-control, and nerve, h i and manliness; who never flinched at h s hard fare or rough weather?a down- ts richt slave to a bad habit, unnerved a . and actually unfit for business for lack i of a cigar! It made me mad at myself; w I despised myseU for my pusillanimity. "Going into the matter a Jit tie lur- p > tlier I found that the money I l.ad spent b . for cigars in a dozen years would have _ 1 paid for my house and furnished it; j 1 would have met all the bills of my w'feV little summer trip to Europe with me, i. : which has been her one air-cast.e so i long. I saw I had actually smokert ? away more money than I had laid out ? ' for our library, our periodicals and our p 1 inte<lcctual culture generally. Cigars ; had cost me nearly twice as much as 1 y had given to church work, missions anri p charity. My conscience rose up at the Cl i rocord. I knew I could not plead any n , equivalent for the outlay. It had not g( i fed me, it had not strengthe ed me, it q had simply drugged me. Every cigar I h?/) ilio nfcvt f?iffnr n littlftmnrf I r. I necessary to my comfort. To use the jy ' mildest word it bad been a useless ?j expenditure. j, " My detention up there in the moun- a' tains was calculated to open my eyes to my domestic shortcomings, and I saw, ; as I never bad before, bow selfishly un r social tobacco had ms.de me at home. I J1 t smoked before I was married, and my a. f wile never entered any profst against 81 ruy cigars afterward. But our first 81 j baby was a nervous thin? and tlie doc- ^ > tor told me it would uever do for it to f breathe tobacco smoke. I got into the ; way ol shutting myself up in the library. ei > ] evenings, after each meal, to enjoy my 11 cigars. As I look at it now, nothing is J* i | more absurd than to eail it a sociai b ! ; habit- It's a poor pretense of sociability a' s j where a man is simply intent on his own i | enjoyment. My wife owns up, now. that my tob^jp'tainted breath and ? my toiiauco-^T^ated clothing were alJ way3 more or less a trial to her. Tlie ; satisfaction it has given her to be rid or : tobacco atmosphere, and the thought ol r my contemptibly selfish indiff rence to ic ; ner comtort all those years, have hum bled me, I teli you. And I wouldn'i r) exchange my own daily satisfaction nowac'ays in being a cleaner man?outside and inside?for the delight anybody gets out of his cigars. "On one point, though, I believe the g authorities agree. No one denies thai it is a damaging indulgence for boys ol It mean-, a good deal when smoking is forbidden to the pupils of the poiytech> ;ll nic schools in Paris and the military schools in Germany, purely on hygienic grounds. The governments of these ? smoking nations are not likely to b( notional on that matter. Hut the use w of tobacco by 9ur American boys nnci : y: ung men is excessive and alarming, ai ! We ought to save our rising generation ai I tor better work than they can do if to* j baceo saps the strength ol their growing ^ j years, and makes the descent easier, as ^ I no doubt, it often does, to worse vices, j I don't know how to forgive myself foi the temptation I set nefore my Sunday- "j school class of bright boys, year after year, by my smoking habits. I alwayshoped ihey didn't know that I smoked, 11 but of course thiydid. It isn't in the S( family, either, that the selfishness 01 the habit is most apparent. I don't be si lieve, other things being equal, there i: j e: any other class of men who show such u disregard in public for other people's y? comfort as tobacco users do. ?ij 'I don't mean the chewers who spit in Si country churches and leave their tiilhy puddles on car floors.

Smoker- m drive non-smokers out of the gentlemen's cabins on the ferryboats,'the er gentlemen's waitiDg rooms in railway fa stations, monopolizing these pubii< bi rooms as coolly as if they on.v had an\ or rights in them. I can't explain such tr phenomena except on the theory tha: br tobacco befogs the moral sense ano fri makes men specially selfish." The major's train pulled in just then, th and, as he took my han^ to sav good cc bye its smoking car drew his parting sc I shot: "See there!
