It appears, from a British Parliamentary just return issued, that in course of the thirty years endicg 1887, 2,784 suits for judicial separation were raised in the English Divorce Court, and of these 985 were auo- oessfnl on trial. Petitions for dtvoroe or dissolution ot marriage numbered lO.uUl, of which 7,321 were sq^eesBfal. There were 3,892 oaaaea which did not proceed to a hearing.

P\CLii.\.N, a French psychologist, has performea experiments that he thinks prove that two thought- processes may go on simultaneously. Whether conclusive or not, such experiments corroborate tho testimony of introspection that mental processes may take place in addition to the activity that mainly occupies the attention. These ideas in the background ot oonsoious- ueas are allied with the one in the centre or antagonistic to it. While a certain amount of distracting elements may be necessary to preserve the healthy dux of thooght, and while in very siicple operations two diiparate thought, prouesaes may be carried on succeaefully together, economy demands that, in the main, the ideas in the back- ground of consciousness should be harmonious with the one in the focus of attention. The waste ot energy when these ideas are of an unessential or distracting nature is a matter of oommon observation. A single illustration will sntlice. A atu'Jent ia passing an examina- tion. He ia ill prepared and nervous. The qusstion be ia answering, orthe problem he ia solving, occupies the focus of oonscioas- ness, but in thu background are such dis- tracting ideas as the fear of failure, the tboa;<ht that there will not be time enoagh to answer all the qaestions, the query whether it were not better to omit this particular question, the self-conscious fear lest he is growing nervous, the aound of the proctor's footsteps, the scratching ot a neighbor's pen, and tbe like. Most pupils know the waste caused by sach dis- tracting ideas. Even if by an effort of will these inharmonious elements are kept strictly iu the background, still there ia some loss of energy, and the effort of will demanded to repress them also takes energy. ^ A Fool and Ula Sloacy," etc. Mrs. Ammon has become a paaper in Sharon, Pa.

A TBL'B 8TUBY IN KKAL LXFC Is Life Worlh LlylUK '." This queation has been asked so often that it has been worn threadbare. Still its application is au pertinent as when it was first uttered. ' &* one time in my lite I - determined to pursue tho study of medicine. Circum- stances compelled mo to abandon it as a profession, still I bad more or lesa practice among personal friends, s a Hicient lo keep up my intereat in it. One day 1 received a .isit from an old friend, the captain of a coasting steamer. He seemed much worried, and for a time made his visit anything but pleasant. At last I said to him, " Captain, you aeem troubled about something, can I aid you in any way ?" "Nol" he replied shortly, "at least I don't think you can, and I have pretty good reasons for thinking so." I felt hurt tor a moment, and rather angrily replied, " Well, I don't have to. ' " Of coarse you don't," he responded, " but It is an infernal shame, and it makes me mad all through, when 1 think uf the way that I have been bled by a lot of frauds, that call themselves doctors." Then he continued rapidly, â-  You know that boy of mine V" I nodded. " Well, he has been a aerioua tax upon me for years, not that I begrudge him any- thing that he has cost me, bat I do curse, every time I think ct the hundreds ot dol- lars, earned in the hardest manner, disap- pearing into the pockets ot men who promised much, only to do the worst kind of damage in the end." " Now, I have the cheerful proapect of having an andvrtakor's bill to pay, besides losing my boy." Bat, he added savagely, " I have spent the last dollar, that I ever will for medicine, and, as he has to die, the quicker the better." " You have no right to talk in that way. Captain," said I severely. " Aa long aa your boy lives, it is your duty to do every- thing in your power to aid him.' " And haven't I?" was his reaponse ; " what is the use of year talking, you know just about as much about curing as the rest ot them ; although," he aided, " I be- lieve you have a cuuscience ; the reet that 1 have had dealings witb, don't pan out so well in that respect. I tell you," he con- tinued, " that boy ia doomed ; he will go just like hia mother did, and the doctors can write down in their books of failures, ' one more death from consumption, a dis- ease wo know nothing about.' " Ha relapsed into a moody silence. .Vtlaat I said, " Is your boy very low. Captain ?" " He can just orawl around," was his response, ' and what makes the mptter worse for me, is the painful way in which be asks me to do something for him. How- ever, he will bo here after awhile, and 1 want yoa as a friend of mine, to tell me to the best of your knowledge, buw long you think he is going to last, so that I can make my calculations." While he was talkini/, I saw the boy ap- proaching, and just as he stepped into my office panting and gasping, from his exer tion in walking, I said to myself, " The grip ot death ia too firmly fastened on you to be ever shaken off," After greeting him, at his father's request, 1 examined him and found him in the condition that I sh 11 describe. Ue had evidently inherited consumption from bis mother ; bronchial tubes much tbiokened, ao much so as to make the operation of breathing extremely difficult and painful, Chost cavity much contracted ; auscultation and percussion showed extensive tuberculous deposits, and cavities, aapecially in tbe left lobe of the lungs ; body much emaciated and blood- less. In fact, unless (to my mind) some miraculoaa intervention occurred to stay the progress of the diseaao, tho pationt could not survive but a few weeks. I talked as cheerfully aa I could to bim. but be was too much depreaaed to pay mach attenticn to anything but hiu saffering. Tbe father sent him to a restaarant near by, and turning to me be aakud. "Well, what is the verdict ?" I had been chinking rapidly, and as he apoke I had made up my mind to a pro- cedure, aa regards the boy, that I deter- mined to follow oat. In answer to his queuiiuii, I said. "Captain, anlesa aomc- thin<j is ibne fur that boy, you will bury him within a month." Well, what can be dono ?" he aaid ex- citedly. " Do you want to try your hand in exporimonta ? Do you want acme of my money too ? Are you going to sicken him to death with rotten cod liver oil, blister bis akin witb plasters, drag him and rush him into his oofiia ?" " Hold on. Captain," I replied ; " I don't want your money, but I am going to try an experiment with your permission. It ia a matter ot duty, and in bis condition, can do no barm, if it does no good. ' "How much is it going to cost?" he asked. " I dou't know," waa my reply, " Whatever it is," he rejoined, â-  will come out of your pocket, not mine," " Don't bother yourself about that, ' said I coldly. When the boy returned, he seemed more exhausted than when be first entered my office, and aa hia father handed bim a chair, he said to bis son, "Del, the doctor here thinks he can do yoa some good. What do you say ; do you want him to try ?" I shall never forget the look on tho boy's face, and his words, and the heading of this article came forcibly into my mind : " Is Life Worth Living?" Evidently it was to him, as it ia to all mankind, when tor- tured with pain, with the clammy hand of death encircling their throats, they struggle in his relentless grasp, and cry out iu an agony of terror, " for God's salto, save me." 1 put him on a nutritious diet, oggs and milk heading the list, and provided him with a preparation of medicine, that I had never used before, or over expected to. It was a sheer experiment on my part, aa recklessly attempted as anything could be. The result â€" immediate improvement in breathing, and general atrength of body ; better color, improved spirits, increaaed appetite, and an increase iu bodily weight that was aatouishing. .Vt the oommenoement ot treatment he weighed '.12 lbs. In two months witb con- stant progress to health, hia weight had increased to 1'20 lbs. Ia three mouths he accepted a situation as an errand boy, indulged in running, boyish games ot all kinds, a well boy if ever thore was one. Ask bim now if " Life in worth living?" " What was thia wonderful preparation ?" do yon ask. As a matter ot right you should know, and 1 solemnly swear to the oorrectueaa of my atat'jment. Tho boy is still in the land of the living, and well at that, and both he and hia father will back my statement.
