C NO STING IN DEATH French Specialist Declares That Death l Painless. Do we suffer to die? La Lacture, the famous French paper, puts this ques tion, and Dr. Neelter, the emiccnt ipecktUst, of the Parisian hospitals, aii-swera with a big, round no. "I have observed and noted with th greatest attention and care," he ays, "all the phenomena of that, the most Important act of life that is cal led death, and I can affirm that it is painless. Sensibility, that compound action of the brain, nerve3 and mus elea which produces all our feelings, fcoth physical and psychological, is the first thing- to die. It becomes extinct before the animal life ends, and con tequently there la no .pain in death. "Death like sleep, is an absolutely iutousclent and painless act. Nobody can remember the exact moment he 1W1 asleep and no one has a notion of the exact moment when he dies. "In some cases when the train Is dear enough to permit the patient to think and reason, the man about to die Realizes his position, but even then ho is only able to have a very faint and nebulous idea of what happens to him. Ills mind i too confused to make de ductions that would necessarily cause Intense moral pain. , "As to physical pain, there Is none. "When a person becomes so ill that 4l la fthont tr riif nn matter wViflj. the direct cause of his condition might be pmpiete mat ae vroma not reei any aiin even if he be pinched or slashed "It i3 logical, therefore, to think ,&at if previous to reaching the agonic pr preagonic period he was suffering from any pain, it had disappeared, for 'Jiere can be no pain where there is an tbsolute- absence of sensibility. "I am acquainted with the ca&e- of a Man who jumped overboard from a keamer in mid-ocean, with the object Is he afterward testified, to find out hat the feelings of a drowning nan i'Ha struggled desperately, fcr two t three hours, and during that tliaa, la said, bis sufferings, both physical :id moral, were intense; but then, 'kh tbe approach of death, all ffcl gs disappeared.

While he. had a notion of what Ippdnod, it wej so faint and Lmper ht taSX he- could no; fully realize hi3 M51UOH. tie was pic 3d up aud saved on be was, in ' his cwa opinion. iora than dead.' A little child had his two leg3 cut by a train. He was brought to the jpitaJ and, according to the arubu ce surgeon, he did net complain of V pain. He only begged the doctors ,4 his legs bo not amputated. I con ned with him for a few minutes of Afferent things and to all my quos W the child answered with pcrtect liracjr. Suddenly he looked at mo I Baid: i'How good this la!' $' What?' I aeked. 'Nothing,' ro il the child, 'but I feel all oer n:y V something that is very nice.' Vnd he diad." is known that the sensation felt mortal wound iuSicicd with a rl ullet is that of a 1i:t; blow. In f instances, wnen tae wouna, h dangerous, is not necessarily ,al, the blow is felt in another part -e body. The writer himself was 'la the liver in one of the battles '.e Cuban revolution and felt the I a very slight pain, under the eye. It was only after several 1 that he discovered his misiaka Xt by hemorrhage, according to 'iost famous medical authorities, slicious," as is death by hanging. Well Worth Trying. J.

Madame Helloc-Lowndes says that th-1 n ver&.go Frenchman has a totally different Ideal ?ro:n the British bach elor as to what should lead to msir riage. He knows, or believes he knows, that tho violent attraction dignified in that country by tho name of "love" is often a verj pass lug feoMng, ad therefore, he looks for more lasting qualities above all for suitability of age, good temper, health and many ntinor qualtuca tlcn's which there play scarcely any pert in determining the prelimina ries to a marriage. He expects that the woman chesen by hirn will be ablo to bear her part of t'helr future household expenses, but it may be truly sal'd that the average sensible Frenchman v.6uld far rather have a small dowry with a pretty, thrifty wife, than a very large fortune with a plain, extravagant damsel.
