Loss of Memory.

The loss of memory in the aged is a
familiar example, says Dr. nj. l.. Hol-
brook. and can only be accounted for
by deterioration of the brain elements
and elimination Of blood supplied to
them One of the worst features of
such cases is the fact that an old per-
son is not, for long time after decay
has begun, aware OF it. | am now treat
ing Il case of loss OF memory in per-
son advanced in years, who did not
know that his memory had failed most
remarkably till | told him of it. He is
making vigorous effort to bring it back
again, and with partial success.
The method persued is to spend two
hours daily, one in the morning and
one in the evening, in exercising this
faculty. The patient is instructed to
give the closest attention to all that he
learns, so that it shall be impressed on
his mind clearly. He is asked to recall
every evening all the facts and experien-
ces of the day and again the next morn
ing. Every name heard is written
down and impressed on his mind clear
ly, and an effort made to recall it at in
tcrvals. Ten names from public men
are ordered to be committed from
memory every week. A verse of poet
nv is to be learned. also n verse from.
the Bible. daily. He is asked to remem-
Der the number of the page in any book
where any interesting fact is recorded.
These and other methods are slowly
resuscitating a failing memory. -Bos-
ton Herald.

Wealth of the Ast0rs.

No one family in the country has so
kept its wealth within itself as the
Astors, who intend to continue the
financial policy originated by old
John Jacob Aston about the beginning
Of the century. 1t is commonly sup
posed that he made the bulk OF his
fortune in furs. He formed a gigantic
project for extending the business from
the northwestern lakes to the Pacific
by means OF various trading posts, by
establishing q central station at the
mouth OF the Columbia, and then by
making depot at one OF the Hawiian
islands, to supply China and India di-
rectly from the Pacific coast. The
project was partially carried out, but
meanwhile Mr.. Aston saw greater OPP
portunities for making money in city
real estate than in the fur trade. He be-
gan to buy extensively and thegrowth
Of the town was so rapid that in some
cases, the property increased a hun
dred fold When he died, nearly forty
years ago, he was estimated to be
worth $4,000, 900. He left to his
son, William B. Aston, the bulk OF his
estate, to be managed in the interest
of the family; William b. left it in turn
to his son John Jacob, and now John
Jacob has intrusted it to his son-his
sole child, indeed-William Waldorf
Aston. This virtually amounts to an
entail, and prevents tho wealth from
being scattered, though there is small
danger OF that, the Astors being noted
Tor conservatism and prudent thrift.
They have always invested in real es-
tate, buying few bonds or stocks, and
have evinced great care and discre ton
in their investments. Their constant
ly increasing surplus they have, SO to
. speak, put into theground, reaping ex-
traordinary profits thereby. They new
or sell; they are ever buying, buying,
buying but keeping their transac-
tons as secret as possible. No
one but themselves and their agents
have any idea OF thevast blocks OF real
estate in their possession. They own
thousands of business houses and
dwellings. They never touch unim-
proved property, and now add each
year two or three hundred houses to
their immense holding. Whenit is re-
membered that wealth doubles at
simple interest in less than seventeen

A Tigers Strength.

Nothing shows more the marvellous
strength possessed by the tiger than
the way in which he carries his victim
away. says Chambers Journal. l re.
member the first time was shown
where tiger had dragged sull-grown
bullock. l could not believe it posi-
BILE; and it was not until after We had
killed the robber, only an ordinary
sized tigress, and had carefully gone
over on foot the ground where she
had dragged her prey, that found
that she had not only dragged the
dead bullock, an animal, l should
think. considerably beyond her own
weight, over very rough ground and
through dense canebrake; but that
In some places, as the marks plainly
showed. she must actually have lifted
the fore quarters OF the bullock of
the ground in her mouth. and have
walked several yards with it in that
position. When the victim has been
dragged to what the tiger considers a
position OF security, it will sit down
and make a good meal and then re-
tire short distance from its prey to
some particularly thin brush or tuft
of grass and there remain until the
following night, and then return tor
another meal. In consequence OF this
well known habit, "a kiln as it is
called, is the best of all khubber, and
in such cases. il the tiger has not been
disturbed, the sportsman is almost
sure to find him lying somewhere
close to the carcass; and if his ar
rangements are well made, is pretty
sure to get shot at him.

years, and in much less time when in
vested in real estate, it is easy to
understand how theirs must have
grown in the past ninety years. One
OF the advantages OF such investments
is that they increase with the value OF
the city. They are not confined, as
bonds and similar securities are, to q
fixed rate OF interest. Certain lots
purchased thirty odd years ago would
pay to-day what is equivalent to 40
or so per cent. per annum. There is
little doubt that the Aston estate is
by far the greatest here or in the
country. 1t cannot be much short OF
$500, 900, 900, and by the close OF the
century, if managed as it has been, it
will be nearly doubled. What will
prevent them in another hundred
years from owning most OF Manhattan

A Look Mt the Queen.

London Correspondence Cleveland Leader.
saw the Queen in Edinburg. She
is fat. stout old woman, with arosy
face and dark gray hair. Her features
are more German than English, and
they look very inoffensive and unchar-
acteristic. You may see better faces
at any reception in America, or in
any days shopping. She was on her
way to the Edinburg Exposition, and
the streets OF Edinburg was cleared OF
carriages and street.cars during her
march. Plank fences had be n erected
outside OF the pavements to keep back
the crowd, and hundreds Of policemen,
soldiers and marshals were present to
hedge the divinity which surrounds
the Queen. The side. walks along the
line OF march swarmed with people,
and the scene reminded me much of q
great procession in America. When
the Queen left Holyrood Palace, which
is in the city OF Edinburg,
the cannons on the castle be.
gan to boom, and the march was
made to this and to the music
of the band. The enthusiasm OF the
people was not great, and the cheer as
she passed along was not equal to
that of an American procession in
which the president takes part. Queen
Victoria with two OF her daughters
sat in q doubleseated carriage hauled
by four horses and halt dozen lords
and dukes rode in front and behind
her. AS the carriage passed along the
three women, one old and the Others
middle. aged and younger, kept contin.
uously bobbing their heads in bowling
n response TO the cheers OF the crowd.
The whole scene was n ridiculous one
and the little soul exhibited in it shows
how fast the monarchial system is on
the wane and how little the Scotch
and the English care for it.
A day or two later ! saw Queen Vic
toria again. At this time she had been
driving about the city seeingits sights.
There were crowds gathered on the
streets to see her pass by, and, as be-
fore, when her carriage came the po-
lice and soldiers cleared the way for
it. First the police came. then car
riage with one OF the Queens retinue
and apolceman, then the outriders in
gorgeous uniforms, and lastly the
Queen in her carriage with the Prin-
cess Beatrice and her husband. Dur
ing part OF the ride there were no po-
licemen stationed on the sidewalk and
it seems to me that a dynamite fiend
would have little trouble in assassi-
mating Queen Victoria il he wished to
do so. The Princess Beatrice is a
fairly good-looking woman, but she
is by no means 80 pretty as Mrs.
Cleveland, and her husband is a
blonde. German Prince,
with nothing particularly striking
about him.

The Plug Hat AnalyZed.

From THE Shadows of a Great
City" have succeeded in bringing
away but one thought.
find myself wondering, at its sug-
gestion, why the dramatist invariably
associates prosperity and plug hats.
Why poverty of all degrees, honest or
dishonest. worthy or unworthy, should
celebrate its emancipation by assuming
ut once and without any preparatory
steps this most arrogant and naughty
of head-coverings.
That dramatic villiany should usually
triumph in dress coat and stove-
pipe hat has always seemed quite natu-
raj aud reconcilable with original canons
of human nature, but that mere wealth
should express itself in similar fashion
is not so comprehensive.
Yet for Williams the the plug hat is
simply admirable.
Nothing so dc-humanizes a man as
the cold glitter and incorporating
rightly of the silken tile. To request
the loan OF round and comfortable
derby is difficult; to borrow of plug
hat requires superhuman nerve.
1t subtly justilies the most heartless
utterances of its wearcr. by the sheer
force of its callous aud unruffied impas-
stability; 1t is the most cruel, unyield-
ing. uncompromising and ugly Of hats
tits admirably consistent, too.
