MAN WHO LOOKED FOR HIMSELF.

Councillor Tom Onward related an extraordinary experience at a banquet at Langolleu, Wales, recently. Ho said that he returned home one evening after a particularly busy day, and after his wife retired to rest ho remained in the sitting room reading for some considerable time. He went upstairs with a lighted candle and asked, “Where is Tom?” He declares he hoard no answer, and remarked, “It is time he returned.” ; Ho then retraced his steps downstairs, but could not find himself! He finally wont to bed, and next morning his wife qiaestioued him as % to his strange conduct, and said ho stood scratching his head in confusion in the bedroom. He could not account for his behaviour, and consulted a medical man, who solved the puzzle by saying that one-half of his brain was dormant while the other half was active. Such a case was not un- t known in the medical world. h Mr Ooward reminded the meeting that ho was a teetotaler. li _ . : ——.. i
