Mies Muriel, e. fine, tall, greoefully moulded
damsel of eeventeon, who might have etood
as a eculpbor's model, ou perfecto was her
physique, had returned home for the Christ-
mas vacation from her fashionable Brighton
boarding school troubled with a slight Dough.
In all reepooto save thio trifling laryngeal
affection, she enjoyed the excellent health
of whioh both her parents had had poeseasion

Mise Muriel to eome salon of the arietooraoy,
their reputation for riohos having obtained
them the entree to sooiety to whioh by birth
and breeding they were not entitled.
Mr. and Mrs. Midas Contango had both
begun to dread that Mies Muriel's indlapoei•
tion would oulminate In bronokitie or a
decline. The olighteob dough, the laaeb
ronohus, raised the grim and terrible spectre
of phbhials, and the beautiful young lady
was held to be in imminent danger of an early
grave. I had examined her chest with the
most anxious and mioute °are, but could
discover nothing to justify any fear or even
doubt of the correetnees of my diagnosis ;
yet, despite bateamice and sedatives, ex.
posuro, however little, in broaoheroua
weather would cause hoarseness and a
transitory cough, Indeed, these disagree.
able symptoms often manifested themselves
without any apparent osune, exoept, as I
judged, the inordinate precautions taken to
avert them, The rooms at Mount
Auroo were always too hot ; Miss
Muriel was overolothed, could not stir out
for a constitutional in the garden without a
respirator, or take a drive unless hidden in
an envelopment of ooetly furs. When I
ventured to hint at thio, the invariable reply
of the Contango,' was : "Ah I doctor, if we
did not bake thin Dare of Muriel, how long
would sho be wibh us 1—the dear child is so
delicate." And nothing I could say would
alter their opinion.
One day late in the April enooeeding,
when Mies Muriel had boon coddled up at
home for four months instead of poing sent
beak to Brighton to continue her studies,
Mrs Oentango was more than usually con-
cerned about her daughter's condition.
The stockbroker and his good lady had
overnight held an anxious dimouseion. I had
mado my now usual though quite antiwar
eery daily visit to Mount Anreo, and tire
Midas Contango was, in her patronising and
yet solialtous manner, bowing me out. I
had almoab roachod the door, hat in hand,
when Mrs Oontango said with some effort:
"Dootor, you know we have the utmost
coufidenoe in you ; we awry oub yonr in-
structions to the letter; but our dear

" Yee madam ; only you will persist In
treating her, if f may bo pardoned the
simile, too muoh after elle manner of a
tropical orchid, inetead of regarding her as
a beautiful planb of Eoglish growth."
" Well, perhaps you may ba right, dootor ;
but we are so very anxious, Mr. Ooutago
and myself—you see Muriel is our only

"Nothing would 130 more proper. Pray,

Mrs Midas Conuango mentioned the name
of a very fashionable and exponaiva London
phyaioian with a consultative practice con-
fined almost entirely to the houses of those
who had been presented at court. He was
certainly nob the• man I should havo ohaoen,

tion was far more that of the drawing -room

if oonsoiontfoue practitioner, could nob

him; and I ooumented to faoilitate amp.

convenience.

while profuse apologies for having been

the Duchess's request to give hie opinion ad

deoepbloa; "these delicate gradations in

ELECTRICI IT AS TEM EXECUTIONER,
A Protest Against the Debasement or Rel.
once and Invention.
At bhie writing the jadloal inquiry in the
State of New York to determine whether
or not an aleatrio current is a good eubeti.
tute for the hangman's hempen rope is still
In progress, and le watched with deep inter-
eeb by the general publio. How it may
eventuate we will not nnderbake to prediot,
but in behalf of the social and materiel
progress of mankind dependent 011 ooienoo
and invention, we are bound to utter a
protest against the prop000d debasement of
the grandeab agency of human advonoemenb.
Whether killing by an electric shook
would be lone or more orae] then killing by
the scaffold and rope we do nob oortainly
know nor do we greatly care, bub we do
know that it would be a degradation of
oleos to aubatitute the electrician for the
hangman. Ib is the provinoe of science to
help the race in all its aspirations, in all ibe
movements toward higher planes of life. In
order that) eofonbifio discoveries and appli.
awes may be in the largest degree beneficial
to humanity, we muse avoid associating
them in the pablia mind with things thao
aro repulsive, with events that excite horror
or dread, with olronmetances that are
regarded as disgraceful.
Ever since Franklin idontlfied the thunder
bottle of heaven with the electric sparks
produoed by Motion, all the uses to whioh
electric 5eiea0e has been applied have been
exalted. It had been make a grandly benefi-
conthelper to mankind. Ib has brought all
nations Into alone relations. Ib has boon an d
is a leading factor in the advancement of
civilization. Ib has reduced days to eeoonde,
leagues to inches, in the transmission of
intelligence. As a protector of society
against prime, if hae won coma of its brigh.e
Dot laurels. No criminal oan travel so fast
or so far that hie arrest oannot get ahead of
him. It lights up the alleys where prime
was wont to work In derkneos. It range
belle when prime attempts to lnvade a bank,
a store, or a dwelling, It to no debasement
of oeience to nae this agenoy for prevention
anddetootion of crime, but when the oriminal
has boon bronghb to jnabioe, when the jury
has oonvioted the murderer, and the oonrb
has planed him in the hands of the Sheriff
to be killed, we submit that it would be
such a debasement to tell the hangman to
step down and out with his ropy and direct'
the eleobriaian to the front with hie battery.
Ibw ill beurged that bhe exeontioa of a
murderer is as neoe0SAry for the protection
of sooteby as his arrest, trial, and conviction,
We shall go into no discussion on that point.
Taking facts as we fiad them in Europa aa
well ae in thio oonntry, the executioner is a
synonym for all that is horrible. So repulsive
la the taking of Ilfe,to loathed is the man who
takes it under the obligations of effllofal duty
that the hangman in this oonntry le always
oonoealed, so that ib may nob be known by
whoee hand a felon dies. et is proposed now
to Load all this odium, all this horror, ail
this popular execration on eleotrio science—
to make the electrician the hangman.
Against this we protest, and we do so with a
firm conviction that our protest hi in the
interest of civilization, of the advanaemenb
of society in all that contributes to our
material, moral, intellectual, and social
well being.—[fnveativoAgo.
