Ready Made Novels.

Any one ambitious OF producing
work of fiction has only TO read the
newspapers to lind in their columns the
most thrilling plots, which, with due OK

or Mr. Wilkie Collins. This, at least, Is
what one is given to understand BY
newspapers themselves, 10 which it is
no rare thing to see a quarter of col

She Fearnd Insanity.

A young lady of Chelsea who had
been shopping 10 Boston, visited the OF.
flee Of prominent physician on Satur-
day, says the Boston Herald. She was
flushed and excited, and said she had
very strange sensation which led her to
Upprehend some serious brain trouble
in short, insanity, The peculiar senSa-
ton she described was a feeling running
around in circle on the top of her
head. The doctor took of her hat and
examined her head but found nothing,
aud she remarked that the sensation
had left her, She put on her hat, and
after sitting few moments jumped up
with scream, saying that it had come
again. Another examination followed,
first Of the head, then Of the hat, and
in the hat small but active mouse was
discovered, If we can only convey the
impression to all ladies who wear large
hats to the tbcater that they are liable
to be invested by mice we shall have
earned the thanks of thousands. Tho
little story is true.
