The three women were brought to

Sterling Faxon's Experience.
BY MJLRV DWINFJX CHE1XW
Contributed by the W. C. T. C's.
It was on the eve of an important
election. For weeks halls bail leen
packetl with enthusiastic crowds list
ening to jxiular speakers while long
processions paraded the streets with
darning torches and flaunting ban
ners. Jravonng candidates hal been
extolled and opjosiiig candilates de
cried until men forgot to be either
generous or just.
Sterling Faxton candidate for an j
ffice he had long coveted, was in his
library alone,counting over and ov
er again his chances of success.
That Ire would owe his election if
this was achieved, to widely different
classes of society, no one knew better
than himself, yet every vote cast for
him would le cast for the liquor in
terest. The wealthv citizen whose wine-
cellar was stocked with the choicest
vintage and the veriest sot who slak
ed bis thirst in the vilest dens were
alike sure to give him their votes.
Brewers aud distillers, wholesale and
retail liquor dealers of every grade
all were pledged to sustain him,
while he in turn was pledged to de
fend their interests against all op
Iosition. This wr: I the price of his
election ai: ! he would 1h held to
strict account. H would le closely
watched. There could le no water
intr on his part. Scruples must le
given to the wind, and he must fol
low the path marked out for him.
Perhaps in his eager haste he had
not ln-fore stopjied to count the whole
cost : but now that he was al-ne with
ample time for reflection he ques
tioned if he had done wisely.
A servant interrupted him to say
that a loy wished to see him ujon
inqiortant business.
"Show him in," was responded,
and presently a coarsely dressed Irish
lad stood In-fore him, hat in hand.
I was to bring this to vou," said
the visitor, extending a piece of
brow n patier closely folded. "I was
old not to wait for an.answer, but w
must le veil send for some money
to the poor fellow that's lyin' on the
straw, and niver a bite to ate but
what we ioor ones give him. It's a
garret t he's in, aud no fire. I'm
thinking it's the drink that's brought
niu there, but there a many a one in
tine bouses as bad as be."
Mr. Faxon did not unfold the scrap
of paper he had taken. One glance
at the superscription sumeetL It
had leen written with a trembling
hand, but there was no mistaking
the writer.
"I have nothing to give. You can
go," said the gentleman huskily.
"And nothing to sind the poor fel
ler that's lying on the straw t He
said ye was up for a big office, but I
hope yell not get a vote, ye're that
stingv-
"What is it," asked a young girl
who had just entered the nom in
time to hear this last remark. "Who
alls mv father stiugv t vout" she
cried looking at the boy, who regard
ed her with wondering admiration.
"Faith, and I did." he answered.
I brought the gintlemau a letter
from a por feller that's nigh dyin,'
and he won t send him what would
kape the breath of life in him.
"Does be ask for money father.
"I don't know. I have not read
the letter."
"Would there be an angel sister to
the jHMr feller on the straw ?" now
exclaimed the lad. "Sure as mv eyes
can see, there is the verv same looks."
"Do you mean that I look bke the
jxxir feller lying on the straw T
"Sure, Miss, 1 do."
There was a sudden palingof a fair
sweet face, anil then the learer of
the strange letter was shown to the
hall, wher- hi us told to wait.
Oulv on pr!'it would have as
sumed to liae addressed Sterling
Faxon in the rrtniptorv manner
which seemed to leave him no choice
of action. His only daughter was
priveleged anil wheu she read the
message lie yielded to her demand,

you about them and to ask you to

I am going to Harry now. father.
Will you go with me ?"
"Yes. I will order the carriage
and take the loy with us to show us
the way."
No more was said between the fa
ther and daughter. Not a word was
spoken during the hurried drive, ex
cept as directions were given, until
they stopped before a wretched teue-

asked doubtingiy.

the poor fellow, who was raised from

dressed girl, who rejoiced that she
had found her brother.

Resuscitation after Death.
The Medical news of January 2Gth
has an article on resuscitation after
death which if extensively read by
the laity, is sure to occasion doubt
and anxiety in the minds of many
persons. After showing that two
mds of death somatic and cellular
take place before life has complet
lv faded from the lwdv to be recalled,
the article points out the importance
f physicians properly distinguish
ing lietween the two and renewing
or abandoning their efforts at resusi
tat ion as'circumstances'direct. Som
atic death may be briefly descrilied
as the failure of the main organs of
the body, the brain, heart and lungs
o perforin their functions, while cel
lular death is where tho cells or tis
sues of the body die. Both may oc-
ur at the same time, but the writer
urges, the former may take place
without tha latter, and often does
and in all such cases there is a clianc-.-
f resusitating the dead person until
cellular death supervenes.
Authentic instances of such re
suscitation are giv n among others
the case of a man whose lxslv re
mained at the bottom of a shallow
stream for fiillv half an hour Ik-fore
t was taken out. He was resuscitat
ed after several hours of unremitting
Lilxir. But a more remarkable cose
was that vouched for by Professor
Armor. A friend of his died from
Indian hemp poisoning. The phy
sician racked his brain for more than
an hour for some means of restoring
his friend to life while he lay dead in
his presence, and at length called to
his aid a sturdy negro. 1 hey work
ed manfully for four hours. During
all that time there was not the
slighest sign of life, but at its expir
ation a slight movement of the lips
was detected and the stethoscope dis
posed "an occasional light muffled
sound over the heart. Their efforts
were redoubled with the result that
respiration and circulation wtreTery
slowly re-established, and conscious
ness returned after many hours.
The man lived for many vears after
ward indeed up to a few years ago,
and was a prominent New England
banker.
All the cases of resuscitation cited
occurred in warm weather or in a
very warm room, where cellular life
might reasonably be expected to con
tinue for some time after somatic
death. The inference is drawn that
a number of deaths occur annuallv
that might le prevented bv iersis-
teut efforts at resuscitation ; indeed.
that in all cases where death has tak
en place suddenly from the failure of
the heart, brain or lunge to aot, un
less there are unmistaken indications
of cellular death, such as the appear
ance of iost -mortem lividities and
rigor mortis, the effort should be made
o bring the patient back to life. If
he contention of the article of the
Medical news is sustained it will en
tail upon physicians a large amount
of extra work : but of course this is
not to be thought of if thereby hu
man life can be prolonged. Frank
