Mental Disease Frequent Among Sow
ereigns.

The death of the King of Bavaria
has called forth a great number of es-
says and treatises on mental insanity
and its causes. In one of these the
well-known German scientist, Professor
Hackel, points out that mental disease
is much more frequent among the high
err and highest classes of society than
among the common people. He says:
mental diseases arc remarkably fire.
quent among sovereigns. The cele-
brated spec alist for diseases of the
brain has shown that the proportion of
lunatics in reigning families, as COM
pared to that of the population of their
country, is as 60 TO THAT is to say,
that lunacy occurs sixty times as often
in reigning families as among ordinary
mortals. II similar accurate statistics
were taken as to the frequency of luna
cy among the nobility it would at once
appear that this class also furnishes
much larger contingent of lunitcs
than non-aristocratic humanity. The
cause of this is the unnatural or one
sided education and the artificial sep
aration of the privileged classes from
the rest of their fellow creatures, which

Mrs. MacKay's Romance.

Some time ago romantic and inter-
esting story was related to me concern
ing the American bonanza queen, Mrs.
Mackay. Years ago, comfortably stu
ated in a modest home at Northport, l..
l., lived a cosy little family of three
father, mother and little daughter.
For time all went happily along, until
the husband and father was taken ill;
then came dark days in the cottage
and a sharp struggle for life was each
day and hour enacted. There came a
lull, kind friends walked gently about
with troubled faces and solemn hush,
and that indefinable something, which
always accompanies death seemed to
say that all was over, all suffering
passed away and the mortal remains Of
the father lay calm and quiet. Mother
and daughter were soon to begin a
long, bitter struggle for bread in the
great world alone. Across the country
whirled the flying train. On, on it
rushed. painting, pulling, snorting for
days till the journey ended and Califor-
MIA was reached.
Among those who left the train was
black-robed woman and fair little
girl. Alone in strange land. Then
followed weary days in fruitless search
ing for work. Life is not so easy, after
ali, to begin anew in strange place
without friends. Steadily the small
stock of money grew smaller, until.
with all its ghastliness, starvation
stares one in the face and there is no
alternative but to beg. So this mother
and daughter found the sunny land of
the west not quite so bright as when
viewed from afar, and thus it happened
that the fragile child stood upon a cor
ner asking aims.
What was there there in the childish
beauty and appealing look of this little
wait that so touched the heart of rich
man? He stopped and questioned the
little one, then followed her to her lone
ly home and from her mother learned
their sad story.
"Pitv is akin to love-" so says the
proverb, and in this case proved to be
near relation. Now comes the most
romantic part of the story and the part
most like fairy tale. Fortune show

With Their Little Hatchets.

One of the sanitary squad of the po-
lice force was up Mullett street the

"Wherep"
The old man beckoned him into the
side gate and around the house. In
the back yard were four cherry trees
loaded with the red fruit, and In the
branches of every tree was a boy from
8 to IL years of age. Guarding the
trees were two dogs, and that they
were anxious for boy-meat was plainly
shown by their actions.
"When did you catch emp" asked
the officer.
