Dr. of morphine and cocaine, and the oth- er a young another who. for seven days. had obstinately refused to taste a morsel of food, and who, kept the. neighborhood aroused by her delirious songs and laughter. The Doctor gave each of tbem the usual dose- of bromine, which put .them, to sleep, and 'when they awoke their nerves ,were calm and the past seemed to them like A HORRIBLE DREAh1', In view of these experiments Dr Macleod feels justified in claiming that as an aid toward the cure of. nervous ailments hardly anything can be better than the artificial sleep which is produced by bromine. "Bro.. mine sleep" is his expression, meaning thereby a sleep which lasts from five to nine days and from which the pati- ent cannot be aroused even by violent shaking. During these days the rat:- ent lies still and, as it were, torpid, showing no desire for food or drink and in other respects almost as inert as a lifeless being. So completely is he at rest that tneither the loudest noise nor the most dazzling light bas power to awake hien. His strength however, must be maintained, and this is done by giving hire teed in the AMU of wilt. ,aecordirg to Dr. Macleod the nerves get in dile way suet rest as they could not otherwise obtain. The patients, too, after awaking, quickly recover their normal strength, and during their' sleep they do not softer In the Least from any obstruction of their res piratary Qrgane or from any oth- er trouble. The weight, however, will mat decrease if from one to two eups at milk are given to the patient every two incurs, Dr. Macleod admits that per. -sons suffering trona nerveue dip- orders who are removed from their homes and taken to asy tutus will ob- tain there route much needed rest, which will naturally tn't•igorate their nerves, but he insists that the rent obtained by a ""bromine sleep" is much inure salutary and enduring. and that such a sleep is also. in many respects, vastly preferable to the sleep which is le 1l.LSfJLT UI'' UYJ?NOTIS3I. This novel mode of treatment with trornins is simple enough. During the first two days of the sleep seine slight ifficulty is experienced in getting he patieut to swallow the milk, blit after that time it is swallowed as readily as though the sleeper was wake.

Still he tried to be hopeful- " There must be some respectable people in the place," he said. " 1 fear not," replied her ladyship. If there were any re.,peetable peo- ple such a person as 13oidwuod would not be allowed to exist." ` Unfortunately for us, mother, the days are past when an obnoxious citi- zen. could be sent about his business or even put in the private pillory," said her step -son. "Boldwood is peace- able enough in his private life, I be- lieve, although he is somewhat tru- culent on the platform" " Somewhat 1' echoed Lady Lash - mar. " You have such a namby-pamby way of expressing yourself. 1 have never heard the creature speak, but I have read his virulent nonsense in the papers and that is enough." " Virulent, sometimes, I graeit,• but not always nonsense," said Lashmar, quietly. "The man's ideas are the- pian, but he expresses himself with a certain rough vigor and with a strain, of poetry -in fact the man is a born orator, and,alihough he es for the most part illogical,, he has occa- sional flashes of common sense." Who is this Boldwood f"" asked the colonel,trifling with 'an olive ; " ev- erybody hasbeen talking to me about him since since I consented to stand for Drumm; and, as I am a stranger to the land and his reputation is ratite ly local, I confess myself stiliin the dark as to this powerful antagonist whom Iam to meet front to front to- morrow night."

This had been duly explained to Colonel ,Spillington, who liked his meals and thoroughly approved of the Lashmar chef. He detested tea and cakes and muffins and all tb,ose dain- ties with which Victorian gorged him- self at five o'clock, when the little party assembled in Lady Lashmar's morning room, full of the approaching fray. " Do have some of these chocolate cakes, dolonel," said Victorian, with his mouth full, " they're, so good." " Thanks, no, my boy. I haven't tasted sweets for the last twenty years, and I am afraid of tea. It al- ways turns. to acidity. If," with a de- precating glance at her ladyship, "if I might have a brandy and soda."

The Doctor gave him a dose of brom- ine which put him into a deep sleep. When he awoke, he assured the Doc- tor oo-for that he did not feel the slightest desire for alcohol or morphine, and since that day he has wholly abstain- ed from them. The next experiment was made on a lunatic who was being removed from Japan to Shanghai. As he was a fearfully excitable man, his atten- dants feared that he would cause con- sternation among his fellow passen- gers, and, therefore, they asked Dr, Macleod, who was then in Japan, if he could not give him something that would keep him quiet during the journey. The Doctor gave him some bromine, with the result that- he .be- haved like a rationnal being until he was safely landed in Shanghai. _ A Chinaman who was excessively ad- dicted to the use of chloral was the Doctor's third patient, and after him came a lady 'whose nerves had been shattered by domestic trouble. In both cases the result was satisfactory. When the Chinaman awoke from his bromine sleep he found that all desire - for chloral had left him, and, when the lady awoke she found that her nerves had regained much of their former normal strength. More remarkable still was the Doctor's success with two other patients-onea man who had become almost crazy through the use B4ftwo. ler. Wood's P iosphodiie, The Great English Reineriy.

Physicians in Great Britain and on the Continent are much interested in these experiments, especially as Dr. Macleod insists that there zs no danger in putting patients into such a pro- longed sleep by means of bromine. It - has been pointed out that one of those on whom he tried the experiment died after it was over, but Dr. Macleod says that this iatient was suffering at the time from inflammation of the lungs and that his recovery was practically impossible. Finally, he maintains that rest -absolute, prolonged rest - is the one thing which persons suffering from nervous disorders stand most in need of, and that they can obtain this rest through the agency of bromine better than in any other way.

When Dr. Livingstone died in t'en- tral Afriet, his faithful followers em- bnluied the body, carried it to the coast and it now lits in \V estmineter' Abbey, The heart of the great tels- elonary explorer was, however, buried under a tree beue'tth whose brunches he had breathed his lass. One of his servant; Jacob Wainwriglht by name. carved an inscription on the tree, The part of the tree trunk bearing this inscription, or what is left of it, hts just reached London, and has been added to the interesting relics of the great explorer in the collection of the Royal Geographical Soeiety. The tree was not seen by any white man for more than twenty years after the explorer's death, though mean- while a bronze plate or tablet had been Wont out by Dr. Livingstone's daughter to mark the plate where he died. Valuable Presents, also, were sent by the Royal Geographical So ciety to the chief of the district t induce him to protect the tree and the plate. After many vicissitudes the bronze plate was handed over to Chitatiebo, son of the chief of the same name who ruled the district when Livingstone died there. Capt. Bia, the Belgian officer and explorer, delivered the plate to the ehief, but Bia wet not able to visit the tree and the tablet was stolen soon after it had been put in plaice by an Arab slave trader who wasrai lin; the e u - slave trader who was raiding the country. After Mr. .E'oulett-Weatherlay vis- ited the tree three years ago he wrote home that although it was still stand- ing :it wars in an advanced state of decay and must scan perish, involv- ing the destruction of the inscription unless some steps were I aken for its preservation. The Royal Geographical Society decided to have the section that contains the inscription cut out of the tree and taken to London to be placed with other relics of Living- stone.
