Some Highly Inieresling Experi* mente. Dr. William S. Hammond, the cele brated -New York surgeon, not long ago delivered a lecture on "Hypnotism" be lt ?re several huudred medical students in that edy. The lecturer brought forward Mr. Howley it him in a chair front ing the eon' He then held before the gent'ov t,vs a Small glass Indi, and af? a tittie delay the subject seemed 1>; oomp>"t?ly absorl>ed in the contemplai "on ot Turning again t<? the students. Dr. Hammond seid: ..Yon see I begin in the way serpents i charm hirds. The serpents fasten their steely eyes on those of the birds and fascinate the poor things until they fall an easy prey. Now yon will see in a j minute how this young man will follow i the ball wherever it goes." And so he did. Whichever way Dr. Hammond moved the ball tho young mau went ! after it. Nothing stopped him. Chairs, tables, doctors, stood in lils way, but he stund-li d tiver them or by them, mid ? kept on after the ball with his eyes riv 1 fled on it as if his very life depended on . his getting as near it as possible. Snd i den ly 1 >r. Hammond hid it and told him ir was gone. He stopped, dazed, and 1 li triked aa if he had lost something very 1 precious. Wliile he was iu this state hu was handed a bottle of soda water and I told it was a yoting lady. He took the j bottle in his arms and immediately be ; gan lo make love to it. He caressed it ! and said tenderly, "Will you have mo. j Do. I love you dearly. Oh, do have me." As he walked up and down Dr. ! Hammond took a lance and stuck the I blade int?? the flesh of the young man'? j hand, telling him it was a bouquet, ami i the young man admired the imaginary ! dowers, showing no symptoms of ?lain. Suddenly lie was told that the bottle was i- old woman, ~~> years of age, and lu quickly dropped it, exclaiming, wIdon"l want to have anything to do with her." Hf ate lemon for strawberry, and asked for in??re: stripped off his coat and made a .lash for a man he was told lind called him a liar; waltzed, sang, cried, smelt water and said it was beautiful en jugue," and proved himself ?.n ntterly pliant subject. The next subject was Mr. David ' Wright, who accepted a book for a bird and sang the "Sweet By and By" to it. j When told it had escaped through the hall he made a nish for it among tin . students as if they had not been present. He made frantic efforts tn climb a pillar and was furiously pursuing the bird when called back. He preached ss an orthodox clergyman, then asa coloreo minister, changing hi's accent and hi* manner as quickly as the order wa.-, given to him, and did a number of othei things, much to tlie amusement and as tonishment of the audience. The next subject, n Mr. Wilson, acted Macbeth, reading the vision scene with good effect; preached; told funny stories, said he n'as Col. Bob Ingersoll, repeating parts of that gentleman's lectures; got drunk on water, robed in agony when told he was si"k at the stomach, and erc?,te.l much merriment as a clown in a circus. Mr. iPritchitt, the last gentle man, stripped off all his clothes with lightning rapidity when told he was in fester! with rats. He delivered a lecture on electricity when told he was Benja min Franklin. He strip]?ed to right nt an imaginary insult, rod? a chair for a horse with the same seriousness and in tensity he would a live equine. He became an or. m grinder, ? hallet dane j er. a violiniKi amt . .> rona othei characters. Dr. Hamm..... touched his i 1M..SI- with a cork amt lu roared with j pain. The next instant he danced with I delight at being assured that it was on again and m good condition. Dr. Ham I un ?nd told him that his clothes were on j lire, anti he pulled them off. rushing i almost nude to the opposite side of the amphitheater. Dr. Hammond frequently j put his lingers ou the left temple of the j different subjects and instantly arrested their power of speech: then he would touch the right temple and the subject resumed his discourse. i FAILS OK HOT BKEAT).-There is m I law in this country to prevent the on I sumption of hot bread than that eran ? mon sense, .md unfortunate1- -iat is a idead letter usage' ": . principle itt j the lives of a great man j people.

April 20, I8H1.-201y SEDGWICK'S Steel Wire Fence. EACH year the question of the cheapest and at the same time the ?rrostf durable and effective feucf becomes more prominent, and it has remained! for the firm of SEDGWICK BROS. to solve the problem. This they have done by the invention ot'machinery by which wire can be rapidly made into a double-twist-net work of diamond shaped mesh. ThiB is conceded" by all who have seen it, to be tho most scientific and economical manner in which steel or iron can be used to insure the greatest strength and durability. The SEDGWICK STEEL WIRE FENCE is the only general purpose wire fence in use. Being a net-work without barbs, it will keep out small pigs aa well as the most vicious stock with no possibility of injury. It shelters no enemies to crops or poultry, anti makes no shade. It is just THE FENCE for Gardners, Farmers, Stock Raisers and'Railroads, and is very desirable for Lawns, Parks, Cemete: .'es and Front Yards. For nearly all Enclosure* and lora Better Fence Economy, ihe Netfffwick Fence ?as no cowa!. : - ;_ Being dipped in rnst-proof paint it will last a lifetime, and is better th*D board fence in eve-y r -spect. It is of much greater strength and du rability than barbed fence. It is not affected by heat and cold owing to its peculiar construction, allowing contraction and taking up all expansion* Stock may run against it without injury to either stock or fence. Pigs audH Poultry are restrained better than by an) other fence. We ask for it a fair trial, fully believing thal all our customers will be satisfied. Wire net-work: is no new thing, but we have reduced the cost until it is within the reach of farmers. We specially recommend our fence for bottom lands, ae it will allow free passage of water and can be arranged so as to hang fast in places, even when the Hood will tear ont the posts in more exposed places. None of it will be washed away. This fencing, as its name implies, is made of the best annealed steel wire. The margin wire, i. e. top and bottom wires, run nearly straight, and are No. ft, which is common size telegraph wire. The body wires are No. 13. The breaking strain of No. 9 is about 2,500 pounds, and of No. 18 about 800 pounds. The measure of the mesh is the extreme leDgth and. brddth of the opening, and a postal card will not go through a five inch rn? sh without touching at the four corners. No single wire is expected to break with less than 800 pounds strarni. and the wire will break before the twist will slip. 52 inoh fence, five inch m.sh, is a very good farm fence; 47 ineh, Fi inch mess, is a fair fence, but not high enough to restrain very breachy stock.. Our four inch mesh contains one-fourth more wire for the same height;, and is correspondingly better ; 46 inches or higher will be found reliable fov stock, but. we think 50 ana 54 inch is preferable. We make 66 and 70inch lenee specially for barn lots, or v.'herever high fences are needed, and no cheaper fence can be used for that purpose. Ju using thia netting for front yard fence, a railing and base board, take3 the place of braces at the ends of the fence and makes it more ornamental.. CUT NO. 1. Cut. No. 2 Cut No. 1 represents our Lawn Gates with some fence up, and a roll at the end as it is being put up. Our Lawn Gates weigh from 12 to 20 lbs Cut No. 2 shows end view of feme as rut up with base board and railing. Cut No. o represents onr Drive Gates-these weigh from 45 to 55 lbs. single and from 50 to 60 lbs. double. n'? : (Wi^WxWrWA .4? CUT NO. 3. The SEDGWICK GATES are made of wrought iron pipe and steel wire, and defy all competition in neatness, lightness, strength and durability. These are splendid gates for Yards, Lawns, Parks snd Cemeteries, and evervwhere? where a good gate is wanted. These gates are all fitted with ou? adjustable hinge that allows of the gate being set high or low, and to open either way or both ways, with spring latch and either double or reversible catch as per order. All our gates are specially suited to self-opening attachments. We are often asked : How long will it last? From all that is known of wire and the kind of paint we put on, we think it safe to say from 25 to 35 years, and we feel confident that it will bear the renewal of the posts sev eral times. Any kind of posts may be used and are usually set 10 to 16? feet apart, but may be set any distance not exceeding 20 ft It ie fastened to wood posts with staples. We nell a complete outfit for stretching, (consisting of stretching tackle A nd outting pliers) for $2.50. Complete instructions toset up fence sent with invoice. Any man of ordinary intelligence oan put op the fence. Av erage cost of labor of putting up fence, iuoluding setting up posts, 10 cents per 16J feet.
