The seoand Liestttlimmet of, an cla-
iterate ropart by Pref. W. F. Barrett
an the ""toenailed divining rod" has
Met made fee appeareeee. Prof,
Barrett is a enetnller of the Royal
Soteiesty, omouples ten 'hair of c;t-
pore:metal pleyeiee in the Reseal 001.
Woe of Seis nee for trebled' et Roblin

work of tee Society for Psyohioal 1 e -
marine
Three o, fou, years ago Prof, Bar-
rett undertook a thorough investiga-
tion of the w.bject, oolleotiug all the
stories tie could obtain regurdinee the
nee of the forked twig for the dies-
cor ry of wetter and minerals, sift -
tag them oureeully, seeking auelecor-
robstratdon as Might be available and
planning experiments of his own.
Tee fleet part of his report, which
came out la 1898, cited 153 cases.
The second burnishes many more,
sone of them having been oonduoted
under Prof. Barrett's own super
vision. A tharde Installment Is prom -
Led and will deal largely with the
hunt for metals with the divining rod.
In deectribing the operation of
"dowsing," as this use of the forked
witoh hazel twig is locally ealied in
England, Prof. Barrett says that the
operator u.'sually holds the Y by the
prongs, ao that the stem projects in
trout of him and Inclines upward
slightly. Ween the dowser passes a
spot where water is supposed to exist
the twig rises to a ve,rtioal position,
striking him on the breast. The,
dower himself often appears ex-
hausted by his effort, even come
piaining of sickness or giddiness and
breaking into perspiration. These
are ao marked In instances that he
discards the twig altogetber and is
gelded by his sensations alone
DURING THE OPERATION
tete dowses fixes his attention on the
tap of the twig and becomes oblivi-
our to the world around him.
Eminent people as well as those
who are not ecu of our Le public
life in England employ dowsers. Prof.
Barrett includes Lords Salisbury and
Lansdowne among their patrons.
There are scares of professional dows-
ers in the United Kingdom, to say
nothing of Continental Europe, the
United States and Canada. Ama-
teurs also practise the art. In his
first report Prof. Barrett pronounced
fairly successful 140 of the 150 at-
tempts recorded. 1tejecting the ex-
parihnents of amateurs, he gets nine-
ty-five successful results out of 105
cases. In the second report he finds
the proportion about the same, but
he admits that dowsers may not re -
pert their failures so fully and frank-
ly as their hits Stili he does not
estimate the failures at more than
til to 15 per cent. of the, attempts.
"ewe seta of experiments have been
tried with a view to ascertain the
I en'ninene a of the phenomenon; In
one a second or third operator was
taken over the same ground as the
first, and tbe results of their divina-
tion were identical and successful.
Some of the leading spirits in the So-
ciety for Psychical Resherch hold that
when the ordinary senses are lulled
to inactivity by sleep, natural or
hypnotic, a few persons of a peeve
Iiar organization exhibit a power of
perception and a susceptibility to
influence which Ls unlike that experi-
enced by other people or lay the game
people under other oireumstanoes.
Prof. Barrett regards this possession
ala "supernormal" faculty the most
sati.sfaobor'y theory regarding the
discovery of water with a witch hazel
twig. He thinks that the success-
ful operator is self -hypnotized by fix-
ing this attention on the twig. He
says; "This suboonsoious perceptive
power, commonly canoe. 'clairvoy-
ants,' may provisionally be taken as
the explanation of those suocesses of
the dowser which are inexplicable on
any grounds at present known to
science."

"About the most thorough and
popular teacher we have ever had
here," is the opinion expressed by the
people of Canaan, N,S., of their pres-
ent young lady school teacher, Miss.
Nellie Outten, Miss Cutter is posses-
sed of keen intelligence and engaging
manners, and leas been peculiarly suc-
cessful in her chosen Profession. At
present she looks the picture of
health, and cube observing her good
color and buoyant spirits, would
never think of aesooiatin,g her with
sickness. It was, however, only last
autumn that she was almost hopeless
of eortinning in her work on account
of her ill -health, and her condition
was a source of alarms to her ,friends.
"Yes," she said to an Acadian) re-
porter whet called upon' her recently
to learn bee partieularsc of her case,
"I suppose it is a duty I we to Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills, that I should.
make public the wonders they worked

have thought of It if you had not
called."

did not leave ma Ear a long blame, and
so I became pretty well run down. I
was always considered the embodi-
ment bf health at home, but last
autumn I was really alarmed over
my condition. Sometimes in the
schoolroom I would be seized with
dizziness, and oS'ten I would faint
away. I would take vomiting turns
apse, and had a feeling of nausea
and languor all 'Me time. I lost my
color and became thin and pale, and
1t seemed as if my blood bad turned
to water.
"This condition of things was so
different from anything which I had
previously experienced that Isought
medical advice at once. I was in-
formed that I was suffering from
anaemia, and I at ence put myself un-
der medical treatment. But although
I tried several bottles of prescrip-
tions, my condition seemed to be get-
ting worse all the time. When I
went home for my Christmas vaca-
tion, I was almost in despair. It
was while I was at home, however,
that nay friends advised me to use
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Adting up.
on their advice, I took up their use.
The, first box made its effect felt, but
I used four or five and then the cure

00 d:er.
Sir Rledvens Bwllor's statement that
the ordinary Boer could see a man
conning towards him two miles before
tote man could see the Boer excites
neither surprise nor scepticism
among the eye specialists.
"Really," says a high authority, "if
you apply your common sense to the
matter you will see it must be so. The
Boer is, comparatively speaking, a
barbarian. At least, he has few In-
door oeoupations and does little read-
ing. For generations he has been
training thimiself to see long distances,
for his livelihood depends on sighting
his cattle or on tracking down game.
Mr. Atkins will never possess such
fine vision until hie conditone of life
approximate to those of the Boer.
Like all oivilized peoples, hie vision
is confined to a limited range. Even
at the butts he is not called upon for
any very special effort of longi sight,
and thee is not there very often."
The fact was mentioned that sev-
eral officers had come homefrom the
war with greatly improved eyesight,
Same, who had worn glasses, now
found their siebt quite cured, and at-
tributed the fact to the effect of
the fine clear air of the veldt.
"A clear atmosphere," said the au-
thority, "would be an important fac-
tor im sighting the enemy, aP coulee;
but the real truth is that these at-
timers have benefitted by their exper-
ience in South Africa. It is all a

THE DATE CY THE FLOOD.

Eased. Ilia- Remotion.
Some people hove had fun lately
ever' the reported rejeotion of eight
eandidatees for the Afrioan Methodist
ministry in the South by the examin-
ing Bisbee> because they could not tell
the date of the flood. Nevertheless,
tote Bishop who asked the question
knew whet he was doing. It may
not have been a Pair question, but
there le a oonoise answer to it in the
Bible, and lee no doubt thought that
tee eight candidates, if they were
well versed in Lilo Old Testament,:
would answer 1t at onee..
The date of the flood was 1,650 years
after the berth of Adam, In tbe see-
med month and the seventeenth day.
It began then and continued for forty
days and nights. This is how' it is
figured; The third verse of the fifth
abapter of Genesis reads thuds; "And
Adam lived 130 years and begat a
son in his own likeness, after bis
image, and called his name Seth"
Tiben, in the sixth verse, it IS told
that Seth lived 105 years and begat
Enos. Adam, says the fourth) Verse,
Lived 800 dears, after the birth of
Sebe, and the latter after the birth
of Enos lived 807 years. So it goes
on, Enos begat Cainan w,han he was
90; Cainan begat Mahalaleel when he
was 75; Maholaleel begat Jared when
he was 65; Jared begat Enoch when
he was 160, Methwsaleh was born to
Enoch when the latter was 66, and
whole Methuselah was 187 he begat
Lamecb, and Lamech's son, Noah,
came into the world when the father
was 182. This brings us down to
the birth of Noah, which, according to
tee added ages of the several patrie
archs at the time their sone were
born, occurred 1;058 years after the
birth of Adant.
In the seventh chapter of Genesis
the eleventh• verse reads as follows
"In the sax hundredth year of Noah's
lief', in the second month, the seven-
teenth day of the month, the same
day were all the fountains of the
great deep broken up and all the win-
dows of heaven were opened:" This
was the flood, and it game to+ pass in
the year 1656 aftee the birth of
Adam.
