CONYERS, GA., OCT. 17, 1900- A Stranse Experience. An Atlanta woman who Is deeply In¬ terested in psychological research re¬ lates the following story about an ex¬ perience her husband had in the realms of the occult: “We were having a new home built, and my husband wont to it every day to see what progress was being made. One day as he stood in the front room up stairs his attention was attracted to the street. Looking out of the win¬ dow, he saw a funeral procession pass¬ ing from the door and out through ths gate. The casket was small, white and covered with flowers. He recognized friends and neighbors in the crowd, and through some indefinable impres¬ sion he understood that the corpse was that of his son, though he had no son at that time. Surprised and startled at the thought, he saw the procession van isb, and he was entirely at a loss how to account for the experience. The hour was nccu, and there was nothing In his mood or environment apparently that induced the subconscious. “Within a few months a little son. was born to us, and at the age of 3 years it was carried out. of the gate In a flower covered, white casket and fol¬ lowed by the same friends my husband had seen that noontime long before. What explanation can bo given of this circumstance and experiences like it that are constantly being related in so¬ cieties of psychical culture?”—Atlanta Constitution. A Funny Surprise, This story is told by a man who dis¬ likes nothing so much as to be asked questions: “My little girl is very fond of sc-oshells,” he said, “and, having been called to Atlantic City on busi¬ ness one day, I took advantage of the opportunity to run down to the beach to see if I could pick up a few. I was strolling along the sand, gathering a few shells and pebbles, which I placed in my handkerchief, when along came one of those old idiots who ask ques¬ tions with tlieir mouths which their eyes could answer. “He smiled upon me and said: ‘Fine day, isn’t It? Aae you gathering shells?* “ ‘No,’ I snapped back, saying the first thlDg that popped Into my mind; •I’m looking for a set of false teeth I lost while in bathing.’ “He expressed his sympathy, and then his face lit up as his eye caught sight of a pink and white object on the sand. ‘Well, I declare! Here they are now!’ he exclaimed, nud, sure enough, he picked up a set of false teeth lying right at his feet 1 was too surprised to do anything but grab them and put them in my pocket. The funny part of it is that I never had a tooth pulled In my life. I wonder who that false set belongs to.”—Philadelphia Record. Holding 11U Jolb For Him. “Of all the excuses I have ever*heard from people for not paying their hills,” said a collector for a prominent firm the other day, "I got the neatest today from a very wealthy man who always owes the house a bill. No matter whether the bill is for $10 or $100, he always pays $5. I have gone back the next week and got $5 more, and once 1 went back twice iu one week, and he paid me $5 each time and seemed glad to see me. I got to know him pretty well, and the other’ day 1 asked him why he did not pay It all, as I knew he had the money.” 44 i Well,’ said the old fellow, ‘If I pay you everything I owe you at one time you will collect so fast that pretty soon you will be out of a Job for the want of something to collect.’ “I don’t know whether that was his reason or not, but I let the subject drop and am just going around there now i for another $5.”—Memphis Scimitar. Gounod's Opinions, Music is the most beautiful art, but It Is the most detestable profession. But is not that l ight? That which be¬ longs most to heaven should fare worst on earth. The public moves much faster than the individual, and therefore the indi¬ vidual must place himself before his age If he desires not to be behind It. Wagner has some Idea of this sort. It Is a necessity which every true artist must realize. Great men may be said to be for every ago save their own. Small men are for their own and none other.—“Reminiscences,” In Macmil¬ lan’s. The Congi'c-Ratlon Smiled. A certain clergyman when preaching extemporaneously touched cm: the sub¬ ject of miracles. Borne people, he said, had difficulty in accepting the miracu¬ lous stories of the Bible, as, for ex¬ ample, the story of the speech that Balaam’s ass made to his master. Look lug solemnly at the congrega¬ tion the preacher hammered In his con- j tenflon with the remark, “Why should not God make an ass to speak—he made me to speak.”—New York Trib¬ une. Tripped Dp, Mrs Newrlch—That Mrs. Hyart is a stuck up thii i know just as much about music s he does. She needn’t get funny, Mrs. Browne—Why, what has she done? Mrs. Newrlch—Oh, she tiled to trip me up today—asked me if I’d ever heard somebody’s “Songs Without Words.”—Philadelphia Press, 1 NO. 39.
