A Neat Social Device.

A young man of this city who prides
himself upon his popularity among the
young women really deserves it, for he
studies to please. He carefully reads
the society columns of the newspapers,
looking for the names of young ladies
from out of town who are visiting fam.
lilies where he has a calling acquain-
lance. When he finds such name he
goes to the newspaper Office and looks
over the exchanges to find the newspa-
pers published in the town from where
the visitor comes. Then he reads up
on the local news of the place, gets ia
miliar with the names of the citizens
through the advertisements, and then
supplied with information he calls upon
the young woman and interests her
much by his apparent familiarity of
what is going on at her home. fin

The Blot on the Brain.

II
1t is passing strange that calm, 70
ligious and temperate life is no safe
guard against insanity. As it is mos
natural belief that life Of peaceful
conditions is quite certain to be SAT-
one, 80 it is q common belief that do
nestle life, especially if conjugal rela
tons exist, should be comparatively
free of madness. The popular mind
associates hallucinations, lunacy, and
paresis with intemperance of gain, o.
lust, of crime, or of religion. All o
which is far from being true, as shown
by the report of the Superintendent o.
the Insane Asylum of New York just
issued
Of the whole number of insane per
sons received at the city institutions 81
per cent. were of temperate habits and
80 per cent votaires of the flowing
bowl Eighty-eights of the parents
were of religious belief, over 10 per
cent were, presumably, pagans. as their
faiths could not be ascertained, and
less than 2 per cent. were infidels.
While 30 per cent. of the unfortunates
were natives of Ireland, 30 per cent. of
the United States. and 81 per cent. of
Germany, over 81 per cent belonged
to the Catholic Church. Six per cent
of the patients were of Jewish persua-
sion. and, with less than two per cent
of infidels, it is presumable that the
true faith is not barrier to insanity.
The civil condition of the patients
enumerated shows that the marital re-
iation neither precludes nor enhances
insanity, as Al per cent. were single
and 40 per cent. married, so far as was
known. Fourteen per cent. were wild
ows or we're widowed, but it may not
be inferred from the records that the
loss of eonjugal partners was the cause
of their affiiction. That women are
more prone to melancholia than man is
shown by the fact that of the total
number of patients So per cent. were
females and 81 per cent males.
1t appears that ceaseless toll is fire.
quent cause of insanity, and strangely
the greater number of cases are in oc-
equations which in the accepted con-
should preclude insanity. OF
the female portion of the patients I'M
der consideration, 70 per cent. were
housewives, domestics, cooks, seam
stresses, or tailoresses. Forty-seven
per cent. were domestics, % per cent.
housewives, 3 per cent. cooks, 3 per
cent. seamstresses and per cent. tail
dresses. Of the mail portion 40 per
cent were laborers, clerks. peddlers,
drivers, and carpenters. Twenty-four
per cent were laborers, 7 per cent.
clerks, 81 per cent. peddlers, 81 per
cent. drivers, 3 per cent carpenters,
and p per cent. cigarmakers. 1t is
probable that the record of the private
insane asylum would somewhat modify
the results as given above, but it re-
mains that it is better to be rich than
poor if there be harbored fear of in
sanity and the asylum. York

Blood Will Tell.

There is no question about it-blood will
tell-especially if it be an impure blood.
Blotches, eruptions, pimples and boils, are
all symptoms of an impure blood, due to
the improper action of the liver. When this
important organ fails to properly perform
its function of purifying and cleansing the
blood, impurities are carried to all parts of
the system, and the symptoms above re-
ferred to are merely evidences of the strug-
gle of nature to throw off the poisonous
germs. Unless her warning be needed in
eliminating in liver or kidney disorders, OF
even in consumption. DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery will prevent and cure
these diseases, by restoring the liver to q
healthy condition.
