Wbeo bis balloon was finished be made some twenty-three atuts, nearly always aloue, but occa sionally accompaoiitd by the Marquis d'Arlaodes, a brave soldier and one irbo bad faith In Tllatre's Ideas. The balloon was always beld captive by strong cords. Whenever be went, up there was a crowd to watcb blm. One day there was a thrilling moment The balloon drifted toward some blgb trees, and It eemed inevitable that the tissues would be torn by the branches and Pilatre .dashed to the ground. They saw the. young man calmly throw a ' bunch of straw go his Ore and quickly pour over It two small bottles of oil. Instantly the fierce beat sent the bal loon up safely, and it swept beyond the da uger line of the trees. A mighty shout went up from the crowd, and when be came down Pilatre bad an ration. - He now felt ready to make his grand experimental trial trip, but the king would not allow blm to go. as be feared to lose so brave and scientific a mac. Pilatre was In despair, and at length the king said tbat be would give Mm the opportunity to test the ttifety of bis balloon in the following way: Lie would give full pardon to any two criminals wbo were willing to go up in it. provided Pilatre did not Dim wit go. The scientist was Tery angry. He said: "What: Shall vile criminals, foul muitWers. men rejected from tbe boa em of society, have the glory of being the first to navigate tbe air? Never while Pilatre de Hosier draws breath!" After repeated prayers for permis sion to make bis experiment be ap pealed to-the Influence of "the Duchess - tfe Pollguac'the-governess of tbe royal children. To ber petitions the Mar- - quia d'Arlaodes added bis and asked to be allowed to accompany Pilatre. At length consent was obtained. On Nov. 21, 17S3. lllatre and tbe marquis made an ascent from tbe gar dens of tbe Chateau de la Muette. In the Bols. They sailed safely across the Seine, over tbe Hospital For Old Sol diers, over the Military school and landed about five miles from Paris Their return was greeted with wild enthusiasm. Tbe marquis rode back, but Pilatre bad to go first to bis bouse and get a coat, for some one bad stolen bis In the mlxup of their coming down, when the balloon, of course, collapsed. Pilatre now announced tbat be would cross tbe channel from Boulogne to England. A wealthy Frenchman ad vanced the money to construct an Im proved machine that be was certain could stay In tbe air as long as neces sary. This new invention was a bal loon filled wltb bydrocen gas. Under It was a cylinder by which be expected to rarefy the air contained In it so that be could either ascend or descend eas ily and so reach currents of nir that would take him iu any desired direc tion. it was five months before there came a diiy suitable for making tbe aerial trip. A physician who loved adven'ure and believed in tbe success of the ex periment went wltb bim from Bou logne. They cut tbe cords tbat beld the bal loon at 7 o'clock In tbe morning. The ascent was majestic, and when at a height of 200 feet :be balloon swept Into a current of air that took It to ward .tbe channel. Suddenly a cross current swept It back. Pilatre hastened to let some cold air tDto'tbe cylinder and In some way made' a rent In tbe balloon. Tbey were 1,700 feet high, and Instantly they were dashed to tbe earth, mangled and crushed frightfully. France still remembers his enthusi astic faltb in bis scientific efforts, and In many places are memorials and In scriptions tbat perpetuate bla fame. Boston Globe.

When all Is written, bow little we know of sleep! It Is a closing of the eyes, a dlsapiwnrtuice. a wondering re turn. In uneasy slum tier. In dreamless dead rest. In horrid nlittiluiare or In ecstasies of somnolent funded the eyes are blinded, tbe body Is abandoned, while tbe Inner essence Is we know not where. We have no other knowledge of sleep than wc have of death. In de lirium or coma or trance, no less than In normal sleep and In dissolution, the aoul Is gone. In these It returns. In that It does not come again, or so we Ignorant ly think. Yet when I reflect on my death I for get that I have encountered It many times already and And myself none tbe worse.

Tbey. too. may Imagine themselves of Infinite moment In this universe we bare with them. But this Is to take no account of the prognostic of sleep. There to something hidden, something secret, some , unfatbomed mystery whose presence we feel, but cannot verify; some permeatlve thought In sistently moving in our hearts, some phosphorescence that glows we know not whence through our shadowy at oms. . Neither sleep Itself nor half its prom ises nor mysteries have been plumbed. It Is tbe mother of superstitions and of miracles. In dreams we may search the surface powers of tbe freed soul. Visions In the night are not all hallu cinations; voices lo tbe night are not all mocking. There Is a prophet dwells within tbe mind not of the mind, but deeper throned In obscurity. Tbe brain cannot know of this holy presence nor of Its life in sleep. The brain Is mortal and untrustworthy, a phonograph and a camera for audible and palpable existence. Strike It a blow In childhood so that It ceases Its labors and awake It by surgery after forty years and It wtil repeat the In fantile action or word It last recorded and will take up Its task on tbe In stant, making no account of the Inter mediate years.

Through all tbe ages It has been onr , ieni)moU Lluyd sphinx, which we have Interrogated In I vain. It Joins not In our laughter nor our tears. We have fancied It with Im mobile, brooding features of utmost knowledge and wisdom and sorrow. It has asked us but one question, nor from tbe day of Oedipus nnto today have we answered rightly, so that we die of our Ignorance. It Is Osiris liv ing in us. It Is tbe unknown God to whom we erect our altars, the fire In tbe tabernacle, the presence behind the veil. Not In normal wakefulness at least will It answer our queries, but In sleep sometimes It will speak. And It may possibly be that at last, after all these centuries, we are lenrning how to question it and in hypnotic trance and In the fearful law of suggestion are discovering somewhat of Its mys tery and how to employ It for our worldly goKi. Yet to Its essential se cret we are no closer than our fore fathers were. We may define dreams and night mare, coma and swoon and trance with what terms we will, search their physical reasons and learn to guide and guard, yet we know no more of them than of electricity. We may be gin lo suspect that telepathy and clair voyance and occult forces of the sonl are not superstitious fancies, and we may even empirically classify and Btudy and direct them. Yet the soul Itself Is no nearer our Inquisition. Though we should know of Its teal Ity, though our finite minds should fathom tbe Infinitude, of what benefit would It he? Would It modify our be liefs or our bopes or our faiths? Won Id It dictate one action to our passionate lives? There would be no change In human nn-ture and no reforms of tbe world. We are the children of our fa thers, and our children will tread the prehistoric paths. Dreams are our life, whether we wake or sleep We drowse through existence, awaking and dying and being reborn dally, ever torpescent and una mazed, and our thousand slum berous deaths we call restorative sleep sleep tbat restores our physical be ing, building up where we have torn down, recreating what we destroy.
