A WOMAN'S DOUBLE LIFE.
A Strange Case Recalled by that of the
Chicago Girl who Lostiier Memory.
From the Neui York Sun .
Hakrisbvro, Pa., July Si.—“l read re
cently,” said a resident of Crawford county,
this State, “the account of the curious im
pairment of memory reported in the case of
Miss Houtaling, the Chicago young lady,
and while it must be that the case is an ex
traordinary one, there died in Crawford
county a few years ago a lady who pre
sented oue far more extraordinary and mys
terious in its nature. Her name was Marv
Reynolds. She was a daughter of John
Reynolds, one of the early settlers of the
county. She was at the age of 10 a young
lady of superior accomplishments and of a
vivacious nature. At that ago she was pros
trated with a nervous disease which left
her blind, deaf, and speechless. She re
mained in that condition for about a month
when she recovered her sight and hearing.
Her mind was as strong as ever, and she
had recovered her physical health and
strength, when one morning about two
months after regaining her sight and hear
ing, she awoke with all recollection of every
thing she ever knew entirely gone. Her
speech, however, had returned to her, but
her utterances were imperfect and strangely
constructed. Her mind was apparently us
sound as it had over been, but she did not
know her parents nor any of her relatives
or friends. She could not name a single
letter of the alphabet, and had forgotten the
use of written language. She had always
been a famous housekeeper, but all her
knowledge of domestic employment was
gone. She did not know the use of a broom,
and a kettle boiling on the stove was a
source of wonder to her. She remained in
this strange condition for over a month,
when she awoke with all her original con
sciousness. Bhe had passed out of her period
of lost memory during the night. All re
membrance of the weeks she had boon in
that state was gone. The period was an
entire blank to her. Ail the knowledge and
attainments which she had forgotten during
that period returned to her. While she {tad
been in the state of second nature, as it
might be called, various things had been
taught to her. Kho remained in her natural
condition only three weeks when she lapsed
into the other stnteugain, and as before for
got, everything pertaining to her natural
state. What she had learned during her
lirst lapse canto back to her in the second.
The three weeks’ lucid interval was a blank
to her.
“These lapses continued at irregular in
tervals for a period of twenty-five years.
Sometimes she would be in one condition
for months, and then change for months
into tli! other. Sometimes the lapses would
be but for a few hours. Most of the time
sne remained in the second condition. The
changes always took place in her sleep. In
passing from her unnatural into her natural
life no evidence of the change was percepti
ble, but in changing to the other way her
sleep was such that nothing could awaken
her until the transposition of natures had
taken place. The sleep was, in fact, almost
suspended animation, and frequently lasted
twenty-four hours. As she had no conscious
ness when in one condition of ever hav
ing heeiLinthe other it was long before she
cametp remits it through the statements
and affirmations of her friends. When she
came to fully appreciate the situation in
which she was placed she could foretell
days liefore the (Treaded change to the sec
ond condition came that it was approach
ing, and at first she always bade all her rel
atives uud friends a tearful farewell, fear
ing that she might never awaken from the
longj. doffth-like sleep. As the years
passed, however, and the transitions be
came familiar to her, their approach was
no longer attended by the solemn apprehen
sions. t
“In the course of time Miss Reynolds ac
quired as much knowledge in her unnatural
state as she had in her natural. Her brother
taught her to write in the former. He gave
her a sentence which he had written
to copy, She took the pen and copied
the words, but wrote with her left hand,
and from right to left. A singular circum
stance connected with her was that any
thing could lie taught to her with greater
ease while she was in her lapsed condition,
and that in that condition she wrote charm
ing verses, a gift she did not command in
her natural state. Likewise she was of a
most imaginative nature in her second con
dition, with a wit extremely keen, and pos
sessed remarkable conversational powers.
In her natural state she was quiet and
thoughtful. She formed most peculiar and
strong dislikes in her lapses against those
who were her best and most intimate friends
in her natural life. For -more than twenty
years she was a teacher in the public
schools of Crawford county. For several
years before her death she had lived with
out lapsing into her second, or unnatural,
condition. Relatives of hers live in the
vicinity of Meadville and Titusville yet, I
believe.”
STOMACH TINKERING.
The Disposition of Man to take Liber
ties with a Patient Friend.
Fi om the New York Sun.
‘‘There is nothing on which n man experi
ments oftener than his stomach,”said a New
York gentleman who is old enough to have
dys]pniu and young enough to hope to be
cured. "A man will tinker with his stomach
when he wouldn’t think of interfering with
his clerk or bookkeeper in his store. Yet he
uus been in business all his life, and prob
ably could take the place of his bookkeeper
to-morrow. The bookkeeper has work to do,
and so long ns he does it well his employer
doesn't come around with anew system or a
ucov style of books every week or two and
nnve the bookkeeper switched off. That’s
hot the way to do business; but the very
'uua who wouldn't potter around with lus
employes goes experimenting on himself
whi n he doesn’t know what, if anything, is
the matter with him.
" I'here’s a thing I read in the Sun a few
weeks ago thut a man should drink a few
pints of hydrant, water immediately on get
ting up in the morning. Now let me give
s”u a list of the things that, a man should
take into his stomach the first thing every
morning. I've authority for all these;some
. a y° been told me by my friends, the ma
joiity I have seen in the paiiors, which have
recently done u good deal in this good for
the stomach in the morning line:
A pinch of salt in it* water.
Ati uspoonful of salt in water as hot as you
can tale it.
A cold lemonade very sweet.
•i'll IC..IUH juice with suit.
tut n lemon without drinking anything.
A cocktail,
Strong coffee,
lea and toast.
juice of three oranges.
A mw egg,
j'igs.
licet' tea.
Immediately on gelling up take a hard crack
aid devote five minutes to masticating it
“feebly.
lake a tepid bath and absorb water through
a-pores of your skin. This will make you ac
l| vi; mid limber all day.
UM-feise till you arc la a sweat. Then drink
,/ u 7' Unit bus been bulled, thus making sure of
death of any germs.
• “That, in only a start on tho list. Thore
s a'fascination in it to me. 1 want to try
'•i 'll one of those directions and see what
u'i's t it, ban on me. Every wok or so 1 see
new one, and I cxiierimoiit with that,
hem must lie somethin;; gool In them for
' inch,sly, w ) ul | i want to know is why
" they such a fascination for most men I
ny must a man always be tinkering with
| s stomachf There are hundreds of patent
i' dieitiets, and the pi oprietors of all Of them
e growing rich. It nos gone so far that
h ' cut medicines arc advertised tocoun
“lacttbe effect of injuries and impure
taken under the guise of tonics. Next
i':ro will lie now patent medicines to coun
-1,1 act the effects of these. All these modi
i,!! 1,1 vc “ big sale. There seems to tie an
a . '!" i la a man’s stomach, like a child’s
•sire for every new toy, that makes him
1(1 give his stomuch un experience
nr ' c . vel y new medicine ho hoars of
hvahoA* 1 * friends uud newspapers
“It sometimes seems to lee that mortal
spirit of mankind that formerly had an
outlet in cracking some one’s head with a
battloax or jabbing lances at each other
on holidays now vents itself in making a
battleground of a man’s stomach. One
friend says:
“Old fellow, you’re not looking well.
Dyspepsia again? Well l know just the
tliing tor it. Take a Dint of boiling water
every morning. Brace you up. Make you
feel like anew man, ’
“Next friend cornea along, says same
thing, only cold water. Another man says
some patent mineral water. Try them all.
My stomuch is the most precious tiling
about me. If it is out of order. I’m no good,
vv hen it’s in tine trim I’m chipper. If I
were going to invest 10c. in a scheme I’d
want to know what it was and what return
I’d get before I'd put my money in. Still, I
try any number of experiments on mv
stomach, and scores of other men that I
know do the same thing. Isn’t a man’s
stomach more precious than his money? I
wonder what weakness of human nature it
is that makes him more careful of the wrong
one. Is it curiosity or a hankering after
something new?”
THROWING DICE.
A Form of Gambling That is Growing
in Favor Everywhere.
From the St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
The habit of dico shaking appears to have
superseded all other forms of gambling in
St. Louis at present, and not only in the
city but all through the State is this tho
case. The course of the wonderful prev
vulenee of dice shaking is to be found in
the gambling laws, which have been en
forced in St. Louis more rigidly perhaps
than in any other large city of the
Union.
“I used to think nobody played dice but
negroes,” said a man who has a saloon and
no less than six sets of dice for the accom
modation of his customers, “but I’ve got to
think dice is a pretty good white man’s
game. It’s a great game. In tho first place,
it’s square. There’s nothing in it but dead
luck, and everybody in the game has an
equal show.”
“There is no cheating in it, then, is there ?”
the reporter inquired.
“Well, there may be. There are what are
known as ‘hold outs.’ For instance, a man
throwing the dice out the first time throws
three aces and two other numbers. ,By a
dexterous movement he can turn one of the
other numbers over until the ace is up, grab
that in position in his little finger, throw the
the other dice in the box and shake it. As
he puts down the box and lifts it up ho
loaves the dice he ‘holds out’ on the table,
ace up. Then there are certain men who
can palm dice very nicely and deposit them
on the counter with any number up they
desire. Cogged dice—that is, dice that are
loaded to turn up certain numbers—have
been used, but the rankest, ‘chump’ can
catch on to a cogged dice in no time, and
when there are three or four in a game a
man has to chain lightning to work tho
hold-out to any extent. Most games, how
ever, are on the square, and a hold-out is no
good if the players insist that the dice be
rolled out of the box, instead of the box
simply being inverted with the dice under
it ”
“What is the favorite game?”
“It depends. There is a good deal of sin
gle dice shaken—that is, one dice is shaken
with ace high, and deuce low. It’s a rapid
game. One shake apiece among the players
and high man goes out. Then the shake
passes around again until the last two in,
shake off. They cgn shake it off at a sin
gle throw or dash, or they can shake horses,
which means liest two out of three. You
and I shake, say we’re the last two; I win
the first threw, that’s a horse on you. We
shake again and you win, that’s a horse on
me. That’s horse mid horse. Next shake the
winner wins the game, and the other man
is stuck. Then there’s a game in which
three dies are used, the ace counting 100, tho
spots 60. There are three throws. If a man
should throw three aces first throw, he lets
up. That’s as much as he can get. Tho
other man’s only chance is to tie tlie throw.
If the first man throws and aco, and the
other two dies turn up anything except six
he throws them again. On the last of the
three throws the numbers outside of six
count. If a man throws an ace on the
first dash, a six on the next, and a five on
the next he makes 100. Poker dice is the
game, though. You use five dice in that,
and the spots count just as in poker, except
that as a general thing straight’s don’t
count. Three of a kind heats two pair, a
full hand beats threes, fours beat a full hand,
and fives can’t tie beaten except by a higher
range of fives. Five aces are not lieatuhle.
Ace is high deuce low. There’s lots of fun
in poker dice, and some skill in determining
what a man shall throw to. It is very often
a better policy to throw to travs than to aces
or to deuces than to sixes, but all these
things a man can only tumble to hy experi
ence. There are other ways of tossing dice
for money, such as betting how long it will
take to throw all the numnors from ace to
five with live dice. A man may do it in the
first throw, in three throws, or it may take
him twenty. It's the some way with throw
ing five of'a given kind. I’ve seen a man
shake fifty-three times trying to throw five
aces, and I’ve seen another man threw
them in a single throw. It’s luck and noth
ing else. Skinners have little show be
cause no man who runs dice in his house
wants his customers done up hy a crook. A
man with a streak oC bad luck will go broke
soon enough without having the dico ‘mon
keyed’on him.”
Luck is believed in, bv all dice gamblers,
but the dice gambler, like his fellow of the
faro table, has his little superstitions. He’ll
ask a negro to touch his dice for him. He’ll
kick if some unlucky party—in the phrase
of the class a Jonah—touches them. Certain
numbers he'll believe ill, and others he
wouldn’t shake to if he was to lose his head
on the dash.
A game at the Planters’ House bar the
other evening illustrated how this supersti
tion on numbers clung to a man. It was a
game remarkable in the first place because
it was at the hotel bar, where a few years
ago a dice box was regarded as a plebeian
institution; in the second place because the
dice throwers were high rollers. It started
among a party who shook lor a bottle of
wine. They shook for two bottles of wine.
Tliry got ti> shaking for $5 and $lO “a
crack.” The money went up and camo
down rapidly; it wusu t put. on the counter,
but the loser just paid over to the winner
after overv shake. In addition to tho game
for tho regular stakes there were bets on tho
outside—hots that certain players would
not beat a certain throw. One man tat
that another would not heata certain throw,
fours. The wager was a suit of clothes.
The thrower threw trays and lost, wrote
out the order for a suit, anil the winner lilt
laughing The los<*r of tliufc lh*t lost on tLio
regular siukc ntaut $25. The ganv stopmxi
aismt 12 o’clock. One man was loser on the
night’*amusement only hut ho said
that ho wus really only $l2O out, as ho had
beaten the others out ot $550 some nights
before. In this gnme there was ono man
who had a pronounced aversion to t hrowing
to sixes. “They’re Jonahs for mo," he said.
“I’d rather throw to deuces,” and several
times he discarded good layouts ot sixes
for poor little deucos, and really seemed to
tx> able to throw deuces tatter than any
other Fives are favorite nutntars with
dice shakers. In addition to peculiar Uv
liefsas to numbers, there are taliots as to
the way to handle the box. Home men never
throw the #OO without blowing on them.
Other* always blow on a dice that rolls on
the floor. Home men would not shake dice
if they couldn’t rap the bottom of the box
on toe counter two or three times and
many believe that they cuff cliaiip their
luck by shif ting the box in shaking from one
hand to another. The most ridiculous
suisTstitlon ever observed, though, was that
of u prominent lawyer who, when ill a los
ing streak, discarded the dice boa and be
gan shaking the iallies out of his plug hat.
Whether there wa* any peculiar virtue in
the hut is net known, but lie pu led out of
his bad luck and quit the particular game in
which he was playing about $W and as inauy
Oriuki ahead.
