A strange story of a psychic phenomenon comes from Garhamstown, Cape Colony. Thomas Kerr, who was charged with the murder of Ellen Pinnock, a -year-old girl, was recently discharged, the jury having disagreed. The girl disappeared while on her way home with purchases from a Garhamstown grocer named South.

South, who practices hypnotism, placed a young man of his acquaintance named Staples in a trance state, and asked him if he could trace the whereabouts of the missing girl. Staples thereupon declared that she had been murdered and lay buried under the floor of a house which he would indicate. He was roused from his trance and, accompanied by a detective and five other men, went to the house in which Kerr lived, and found the body of the girl buried in the cellar. Compliment That Touched. When Sir Joshua Reynolds was painting the portrait of Mrs.

Billington (an entrancing singer in her day) in the character of St. Cecelia listening to the celestial music on high, she took with her the great composer, Haydn, and showed him the picture. "It is like," said Haydn, "but there is a strange mistake." "What is that?" hastily asked Reynolds. "You have painted her listening to the angels; you ought to have painted the angels listening to her." "Mrs. Billington sprang up and threw her arms around my neck," added Haydn.

What woman with a soul in her would not, and have clinched it with a hearty hug? Spring Fever. The air is soft and the skies are blue and the buds swell on the trees, while an odor of joys that are soon to come is wafted upon the breeze. There'slots of work that I ought to do; Itry but, I yawn instead, and my writing machine and desk and chair I fain would exchange for a bed. A feeling sweet steals o'er my frame, and my head begins to sink while my chin hits my chest and I 'wake with a start and of work try hard to think. It's now that I long for a shady nook and a hammock swung high from earth, where I could shake each earthly care and sleep for all I was worth.
