IMPULSIVE SUICIDE.

A writer in an Eastern paper presents
novel theory under the above caption,
and arrays strong column of statistics
to support it. His theory is that tall
buildings become incentives to self
murder. He boots the idea that the sui
cidal mania is caused by despair and
distress begotten OF poverty, as is gen.
orally believed, but holds that the living
in and laboring IN very high buildings is
the great cause OF the trouble. The rage
for tall buildings, it is alleged, has exer-
cised a most pernicious effect upon the
operatives who have to labor at such
tremendous elevations. 1t is asserted
that hundreds OF people are SO organized
that they can not look from any consid-
cradle height without feeling nausea,
giddiness, and mental decentralization.
There are scores OF people who
dare not trust themselves to even look
down from great elevauon-they know
that they would be seized by mania Of
self-destruction. Many men and wo.
men employed in the dizzy heights oil
our business houses wresLle with this
impulse day alter day, week after week,
year after year, till they find relief from
their anxiety in the lunatic asylum or
the grave. The writer illustrates by
showing that, Notwithstanding the cool
heads OF masons and bricklayers at
great heights caused by constant ex.
perlence, when the Messrs. Townsend,
Of Glasgow, Scotland, had the i'm
mense chimney built for their chemical
works, three men developed melanchola
and were unable to proceed above 400
feet. The total height of the immense
chimney is 46S feet. Tenant & Co.'s
tall chimney, also in Glasgow, 450 feet,
and the chimney of Crossley, the Hall
lax, Yorkshire, carpet weaver, about
400 feet, were built without loss OF life,
but by the loss of reason TO over dozen
persons.
The returns Of the average duration
of the lives OF persons Variously EN-
ployed are given 10 show that elevation
enters into the cause of longevity:

and she went about her asks as usual,

CHAPTER II.
Mr.. Scrope went abroad, and after a
time he returned home to begin his
career.
Alice Jervis pursued her hOmely and
monotOnOus life. She grew quieter and
graVer, and worked more diligently. She
believed that sue had decided right
ly as regarded Mr.. Scrope's happiness,
and the sacrifice that she had made for
his sake made her feel that she mad a
right to be interested in him, and she
lived IN the excitement OF seeing
his name IN the papers and in gain
ing every particular Of him within her
grasp. She smiled when she read his
name in the presentations at court, or
noted his presence at the court balls. At
such times she looked down at the shah
by uress and poor appointments sur
rounding her, and wondered what sort
OF AN appearance she would have made
in other circum stances.
At length sue saw another announce

Then great gray bars of cloud spread
across lue setting sun, and blotted out
the Sunlight; but sLlli Alice paced up
and down The pollard-wlll0ws, until the
evening was far advanced. Night was
