look came into his eyes. All present were thunderstruck, and fora time a hush so intense pervaded the room that even the clock stopped. At length the phrenologist regained his breath.

The pump agent's scalp was next gone through by the man of science. The bumps were all well developed—that of veneration being particularly prominent. This sur pri ed the phrenologist, as from what he had seen of agents in general and pump agents in particular, he did not look for veneration in,their craniums.

An E nglish genius, presumably a pater- familias, has invented a seductive method of administering medicine to children. He has obtained a patent for raisins medicated in four different ways, viz.: with an aperi- ent, vermifuge, cough remedy, and diges- tive. The raisins impregnated with the medicine in a highly concentrated form, covered with an aromatized syrup and dried. The most knowing of infant prodigies is said to be utterly deceived by them, accord- ing to the testimony of every mother who has used then.
