A strangu phenomenon has come to light in the coarse of the inqniry into the mystery of memory. It has been discovered that by gazing steadily at a crystal consciousness is partly lost. In to tho void thus produced those who have practiced crystal gazing find that there enter nnbidden forgotten incidents and lost memories. To give a few in stances. A lady in crystal gazing saw a bit of dark wall covered with white flowers She was conscious she mmit have seen it somewhere, bnt hud no recollection where. She walked over the ground she bad jnst traversed and found the wall, which she had passed unnoticed. I She took ont her bankbook another day. Shortly afterward she was gazing at the crystal and saw nothing but the number one. She thought it was some hack number, bnt, taking up the bank book, fonnd to her surprise it was the number of the account. At another time she destroyed a let ter without noting the address. She could only remember the town. After gazing at the crystal some time she saw "821 Jefferson avenne. ' She ad dressed the letter thero, adding the town, and fonnd it was right. A lady sat in a room to writ where she had sat eight years before. She felt her foet moving restlessly under the ta ble and then remembered that eijht years before she always hnd a footstool It was this her feet were seeking ' Psychical research brings to light many cases of similar strango tricks of memory. It is easy to find instunces that serve to deepen the' mystery It is not so easy to give an explunution. Thf cloven nt men who huvo uttumptod tu do so have hud to admit defeat.

It waa Suturduy, and some time after midnight Mr. Finerty was unsigned to report the morning sermon of- an oh senre minister way down on the South Side Finerty was the senior, and his associates were thunderstruck. Thoy expected an explosion, at least, but Fiaorty remained calm and dignified, although a trifle pale. "Then he will resign," they thought, but Finerty walked out aud nutde no sign. To the surprise of every one. be reported the next duy aa usual and turned in au ab stract of the sermon. Every one read it am Mouduy morniug, and it was cer tainly uu eloquent and carefully report aad sermon That afternoon a man of clerical cut called on the city editor and asked to see the young man who bad reported his sermon the morning before. Mr Finerty was introduced. The muu of the clerical cut wonld like to see Mr Finerty alone for a few momenta. Out in the hallway be asked. "Of course, you were not at my church yesterday morning?" "No." rpplied Finerty. ' "Well. 1 simply stopped to thank yon for the sermon. It was fur more elo quent than the one I preached. " Finerty had composed the sermon in a neighboring cellar beer saloon on Saturday night. Lippincott'a Magic tine Foic In Photoicraphr. One serious and at the same time un suspected sonrce of fog in photography is often due to the fact that the black ing has slightly worn off the lens mount and there is a reduction which results iu a loss of brilliuncy in tiie negative. Constant use and endlest cleuning of the lens in tima wear tbu blacking orT, aud this shoo Id be attend cd to and all metal parts kept well tlucked. Where lenses are mounted in aluminium still more care is neoesnury in this respect, as, wherever in snch eases the blacking wears off, white light instead of yellow light is reflected into the leus. Soniotlinca diaphragms of the Iris pattern are greatly at fault in this re spoot. By reuioo of its construction the leaves or vanes iu this diaphragm are iu oon stunt friction while being set, aud thus bicumo polished and reflective, lor which reusou some photographers avoid having iris dittpbragms in thoir louses, notwithstanding their oonveuiouoe. A careful examination of the apparatua will insure safety in this matter. Stops of the ordinary pattern become iu time little better tlinn bare metal, espuciuily, at the edges of the aperture.
