The Cure For scrofula was once supposed to' be the touch of royalty. To-day, many grateful people know that the "sovereign remedy" is Ayer's Sarsaparllla. This powerful altera-live extirpates "the evil" by thoroughly eliminating all the strumous poison from the blood. Consumption, catarrh, and various other physical as well as mental maladies, have their origin in SCROFULA AVlien hereditary, this disease manifests itself in childhood by glandular swellings, running sores, swollen Joints, and general feebleness of body. Administer Ayer's Sarsaparllla on appearance of the first symptoms.

DETECTING CRIME. 4 Method of Detecting the Guilt of Crime by the Sphygmometer. To The Statesman. Atstin, xexaa. The Statesman of June 16, 1887, gave recognition to my article "on Mental Impression Solved by Pulsl- mantia" published in the "Cincinnati Medical News" of May, 1887, a subject of the above heading that appeared in the "New York Electrical Keuew," Sept.

10, 1887. Notwithstanding the importance of the subjeot, I was obliged to suspend my researches in the same, owing to obligations resting upon me, aud bring my "Medical Consultation book" to press. The book has just been published, and the first next thing I ieel duty calls me to do Is to resume my efforts to bring the subject of this invention of mine to a practical issue. To gain this result it is incumbent upon ma to seek governmental aid, in order to secure the necessary instruments and the legal access to experimental subjects, that may present themselves under the different authorities of the state. I will briefly make an exposition ol my subject, although it is one of great extent, running deeply into psycology and several ot the physical sciences.

The supremacy of mind over matter is most forcibly demonstrated in every feature of our subject. It is universally admitted that the action of the heart is influenced by mental operations. A moBt important feature of this cardiac disturbance is that it is perfectly independent of the will, and is so entirely beyond Its jur isdiction that no secondary force of the mind can prevent it. Indeed any effort of the kind would only aggravate the difficulty. The character of cardiac action is often complex aud varied, with many different kinds of pulsations, each having its special cause and effect.

There is not a puysiuai or uwuiai that lnnvea notatvoical im- pression ot its own on the heart, as ascertained by the sphygmometer. Therefore the heart is one of the senses of the body and should be added to the five advooated by the physiolo gist: indeed it is me King oi me mm senseB, as it locks them all up in time nt aioon in t.hn nrocess of sleec it ex ercises the most wonderful function in nature. In health, the heart has its own i Hvnartiin nntion: in rest, sleep. labor, silting or standing, running or walking, in leading or utsuug, oiu. In sickness alone the pathologist would have us to observe over fifty different kinds of pulsations.

The Chinese physicians xceed all others in the study of the pulse, who apply their knowledge of COO different pulsations, it is said, with such success in their prognosis and diagnosis the great wonder ot their confraternity in more civilized nations. We confess no great appreciation of this extravagant enumeration of aril I it carries a suggestion of great importance in our question. rne neart is iue ujuamu vi mo living body, and with electrical speed and accuracy is sen-aujuniius ioi spond to every mental and physical operation in man. This can be verified in a measure by the sense of an educated touch; but is a question of to doubt under any circumstances by the use of the sphygmometer. We may read in the lace of man the expression oi joy and contentment or that of rage, sorrow, hatred, love or any other exhibitions of the passions.

How ofteu does the detective read the guilt of the criminal by the sudden changes of his physiognomy? What is the physical cause of this play of the mind, we read in every face? It is evidently in each case from a characteristic wave action of the heart excited by a nervous force. There are three principal effects of pulsations caused by mental influences, that must be apparent to every one First There is aa undue action of the heart without ostensibly involving the capillary circulation. This may be owing to idiosyncracy or in subjects with sluggish emotions. Second An undue action with ca pillary excitement as manifested by the "blush of shame." Third An unduo action with cou tractile influences on the capillary vessels, causing the pale look of terror of the fate. There is a special interest Involved in the first proposition In some cases the will may exercise a certain control over the capillaries, but fails to have, by it alone, any power over the action of the heart itself.

This is because the nerve force of the heart and that of the capillaries are not of the same system. The eminent Spencer gives us a key to this: "He regards the heart as the seat of emotional feelings, considered as a mental state apart from the movements to which it gives rise." The learned Unzer fcays: "An irregular influence of the vital spirits on the nerves of the heart render its mnvnmenta at one time excessive and another enfeebles them." Vanvenar- gues expresses the strange idea tnat "great thoughts comefrom the heart." Professor Itauch, the phycologist, says: "Every emotion ot tne neart bas a tone to express it. In solving the character of mental nttnnli nur main Reliance to the hieroglyhio tracing of the sphygmagrapn. inis remamaDie instrument at present is pretty much nrhat t.hn rnmnnrarv masript was be fore Morse utilized it for telegraphy. tie naa in out a limited auuuu ioku iinnn uot hv an arrangement of that single uniform movement messages are now sent to neany an pans oi world.

The pulse, as it writes out on paper its innumerable little curve as stimulated from conscience's throne, can be intelligently interpreted, usually by the naked eye, sometimes by the microscope alone. From my experience with malingers in the United States army I am fully confident that the sphygmometer can ha maHo tn tiilrn t.hn first and hisrhest place In medical jurisprudence. Several such cases I have reported in the Cincinnati Medical News in connec tion with this subject. In court no cross examination, no conflicting evl-de. ce could impair the value oi a testimony established by a careful medical jurist, or rather professional pulsi-ogist.

But to introduce pulslmantio to promote justice, and to employ it as a ninst, nnwarfnl mufliiB tn dfltoor, crime, we may at times have to over come difficulties to Driug it to a satisfactory issue. These may be successfully met by experience, tact, and in particular taking into consideration all the incidental circumstances of the case. Nervous irritability on the part of the culprit may be one of Lhe obstacles in the way. Where we have to do with such a case the subject has to be calmed down by a bland and easy examination by the prosecuting attorney or the pulailogiet himself. Special care must, be taken in this part of thn examination not to stive the sub ject the least chance to commit himself, or to swerve irom tne the path of truth.

This preliminary step should hardly be called an examination, but simply a conversation, which should be on a subject foreign to the charge against him. When a perfect calmness of the mind is thus secured, suddenly and unexpectedly a startling question in regard to the crime is propounded. The heart will promptly respond under the charge, ts normality is impaired, and, with a guilty conscience, will continue so, under the pressure of a severe and skillful examination. With the innocent, if a cardiac shock does occur, the in lines are not the same? and the heart is soon repaired by a normal reaction, ur. itusa am-criminated feigned from real insanity by the relative aotion of the pulse.

Here, with the insane, a normal pulse may technically be admitted as a characteristic pulsation of the insane; with tha nin.1 in (rarer it is abnormal, ad his individual pulse is lost under the pressure or a criminal emotion. In the examination of an accused for a crime, the Bubject should be placed in an easy sitting (and sometimes in a standing) position, with his pulse under a continuona observation. Let us assume that he is guilty of the crime he is charged with; it matters little what his nonchalance would be. he would have no volition to control the emotions of his heart; that by skillful management would betray him. 'I he tongue under his will may bo ialse, but the heart, not being under its bondage, is ever true to itself, taid knows no deception.

It is only to learn its language, which bears no other tale than the man's own conscience. I would here state that, where a single test throws some doubt on the case, it is well to repeat the experiments on a different basis. If these experiments are repeated several times, at different periods, with like results, we may take the test as conclusive testimony. The philosophy is this: A sensory impression registered in the brain in the perpetuation of a crime will violently expend Us nn tha iiBftrt. tor everv deliberate crime is an emotional event), the ef fect of which may in a measure De reproduced at any subsequent time by exciting a sudden, unexpected attention to the same, in particular when tempered with fear and anxiety.

Perhaps in no case can the pulsilo-gist render more important service to Justice than in the examination of Im portant witnesses, in sucn cases, 101 the witness be examined immediately uftpr mukinir his statement, and should he be lalse, there is no doubt that perjury cau De aeteciea. iu nuuu cases, having to deal with primary emotions, the experiment proves easy and with noHitivn results. If the action of the heart can be made to prove the guilt of tne crura nni it. will with the same potency serve to establish the innocency of the accused. On wnat pnysioiogiuai principles, we nave aireauy siaieu.

xu tha ovnmitintinn of the Innocent there may be palpitation, as in the guilty, but as Tuke says: "wnen, However, nf the same result being pro duced by opposite emotions, we find cm closer examination that this sameness applies to the frequency of the than to their char acter; that the palpitation of joy is of tne nature oi mcreaseu ui nuuuu, that of terror is simple irritation and no sign of power." nil AMia tiiio np tln oancnttnna cwfr(. Felt iu the blood and felt along the heart" We may even go to the extraordinary depth of our subject a peculiar fixed pulsation of the heart oi those old iu crime, characterized by irregularity and irritability. Their emotional life would lead them into that condition. Dr. Itichardson observed: "I have never mot with a case in which the disorder was not sequential to some anxiety, shock, fear, sorrow or their similars." Tak-ing into consideration the physical causes of facial expression we might go another step beyond this and even be able to read the bidden character of almost any man by pulslmantio.

But there is such a thing as a man committing a great crime where sphygmoscopy will fail to render any positive proof of the same. This 1b the case with irresponsible criminals those who are insane. As the original imnrespion of the crime committed was not made on the mind, as stated above, it canrot subsequently become an emotion of the heart. Still we attach great Importance in applying the sphygmic art in these cases, if onjy to render a differential diagnosis. li.

VANITY FAIR. Strange world Is this of ours. Strange in more ways than one, but strangest ofallisthat inordinate desire some people have to repeat some great exchange of confidence or aome passing conversation, and in so repeating to enlarge upon the subject, that their listeners may give more attention. And it is this enlargement of facta that ere long borders so closely on to another tale that by the time it has been told in strictest confidence two or three or half a dozen times th author of what was once an innocent expression would not know even the earmarks of this hideous work of gossip that now confronts him and demands an explanation.

A remark made in jest and so understood by all is repeated by one, taken up by others, and gathering fuel as it goes boou flares up into a flame that Is bound to burn up all lrlendship between those who were once "tried and true." This inevitable result of an exchange of little talk may well make one exclaim with Milton: "He's gone, and who knows how may he report thy words by adding fuel to the flames?" This is in very truth a sad commentary upou the truthfulness of this world, but there are none who cau belie the assertion. The mode of expression, the shifting of words, and the adding thereto can so change an expression as so give pain where no pain was intended. The inordinate desire of many to gossip should be attended with the caution that they must not be indebted to their memory for their lasts and to their imagina tion for their facts. We are all prone to talk. In fact the sages themselves have generously conceded that prerogative to us, but In availing your-self of that privilege try and avoid enlarging to that point where you produce injury.

For tlien, like Uoid- smith, you will realize too late when "Remembrance wakes, with all her busy train. Swells at my breast and turns tho past to pain, That that which you thought would amuse, has served to wound. Think twice, Bpeak once, retain within your breast that which you know would wound, tor Were is no goon done by speaking and much injury is resultant. Bemember that such is not "Forgotten? No, wo never do forget; We lot the years go, wash them clean with tears, Leave them to bloach out In tho open day, Or lock them careful by, like dead frleuda clothps. TM we shall dare unfold them without pain But we lorget not, never can iorgei.

One of the most pleasant affairs of the season was the card party evening given by Mrs. Will Searight complimentary to her many lady friends. The decorations and other tasty appointments combined to augment the enjoyablenesa of the occasion which was a success most pronounced. The Cooking club gave another Jof their elegant luncheons yesterday at i be residence or Mr, E. M.

House though upon this occasion only the members were participants. Since its organization the club has undergone some OLaugOs In membershipthe old having dropped out and the new filling their places but the club still rides the breeze, with a future of much promise before them. The lunceon yesterday morning waa a BUCC68B in every respect, and waa but another example of what ladies can do when they will. Yesterday morning between the houra of 10 and 12 frequent and peculiar sounds were heard on the streets of Austin. By some it was thought to be a distant cannonade and many expressions of wonderment and surprise were heard.

Others contended that the sounds were caused by big blasts being set off in Contractor Corrlgan's quarries at the dam. The society editor being of a timorous and retiring disposition requested the city editor to take the trail of the sound waves and ascertain their origin. The latter had a slight inkling of the source of the disturbance, but, to avoid any mistake, boarded an electric car bound northward. Aa Hyde Park waa neared the booming became louder and louder, and between the booma came short, shrill shrieks, the combination of sounds resembling more the output of a circus calliope in full blast than any thing else. Sure that he waa on the right track, the reporter continued north until the skating rink was reached.

Cause About two dozen of Austin's fairest maidens learning to glide. Effect Mixed feet of all a zes thump boom. That waa all! No cannonade! No blasting! The program for last Wednesday's meeting of the Pathfinders waa beautifully rendered. Mra.
