The King of Cranks.
A gentleman wi h long hair and
finger nails called on us last even
ing. He took a good deal if mu
time iml in rolurn left with ns not
only an odor which still hovers ov
er about its, bu' some ideas which,
if we do not crowd them out of us*
will, we fear, make us take to let -
Img our hair and linger tails and
impoverishment, grov, too. He
sud he was in Washington 1 toking
op authority for the story that a
me hod has been devised for pho
tographing the human soul after
it. has leit ihe body. He told us
that he was very much interested
in this new device, for if it proves
lo be practical he intends to apply
an improvement by means of which
3lie souls may be ensnared.
“Nou see,” said he, “‘if die sou!
can be photographed, it must be a
concrete substance, of course it is
}Ots b'e to devise a means of cap
turing and resfraing it. I think the
world will one day awake to find
that I have contrived such a device,
and, while I d@ not profess to be
able to prevent death, I believe it
will be possible to work out some
plan for renewing life. Now sup
pose, lorexample. iUi old man dies.
Of course it is only his body that
is dead. The body is worn out and
refuses to perform its functions,
but the soul is as fresh and young
as ever; the soul is eternal. Now,
don’t you see it I can contrive a
means of catching the soul and get
ting it inlo a bottle, for instance, it
would be very simple then to put
it. into some dead child’s body and
renew the child’s ]ile.”
‘•But would Ihe child be the
same child with an old man’s soul
m it?” was asked.
“No,” ho replied, “the soul,
which is ihe life, would Lie the old
map's. The new person would
really be the old man, but lie would
be a chiid again.”
“You know,” continued the vis
itor, “that one of the great. argu
ments in favor of a belief in a fu
ture existence is that the entire
human family wishes for such an
eternal existence. Well, the same
argument holds good here. Every
old man wishes that he might be
a boy again. This wish has been
sung and sighed since the begin
aing of tho world, and it was this
•‘act tha-t first led me to believe
that nature had provided some
means by which youth might be
renewed if a man would only ii ad
if. lam not sure, of course, but I
think I have found tha: means,
provided this device for photo
graphing the soul is a success.”
“That would make life eternal
in this world, would it not?” we
asked.
“Yes, it might. Then there is
another view to take ot it. Nature
sometimes makes mistakes. Men
n re deformed, tor instance. Would

course ii is always hampered by
file h -rly’s inability to :any out

“There seems lo be great possi
bilities in it it you can make your
inventions practical.”
“Possibilities!” be exclaruei,
warming up. *“Il will bring about
the millennium. Why, look at is.
Suppose we take 100 of the very
best souls obtainable—male and
female—and put them into 100 of
the best bodies to be found! Don’t
you see at. a glance that perfection
would be (lie result?”
“What would you do with ihe
lost souls—morrally lost, you
know?”
“Let them go their way, There
would always be a surplus of souls
and I would save only the best.
When a lew criminal with a bad
soul and a good, healthy body died,
I would lot the soul go and save
lhe body. Thon, when some per
son with a pure soul and a weak or
deformed body died, I would save
the soul and let the body decay. I
would save only the best of each
and then by experiment, I would
find out whit kind of soul was best
suited for a certain kind of body,
and when I had made complete
harmony between soul and body
—well, may be I'm too sanguine ot
success, but if I do succeed, ihere’s
your millennium, ain't it?”
We assured our caller that it he
succeeds he will not only haves,
made every man his own millen

financial aspects of which would
awaken in us a hearty and sincere
desire to go snooks with him till his

Mrs. Joseph Aubin. of Holyoke,

the usual remedies. At last she began to
take Ayer's Sarsaparilla, and only three
bottles restored her to perfect health.
“ I have gone through terrible .suffer
