times there vas ar Office of ale faster, to
the holder of which fees were paid in

COLLECTIONS, under Jan. 90, 1917, that
John Shurle had a patent from Arthur
Lake, bishop of Bath and Wells, and vice
chancellor of Oxford, for the office of
ale faster to the university, and the max

Office of ale tasting requires that he go
to every ale brewer that day they brew,

Year after year facts are accommodating
which show that many diseases and de-
rangements which once appeared to be
in no way concerned in the c~ausation OF
insanity are now capable of inducing it.
In fact, it now seems clear that serious
affections Of any important part of the
system may be the means of bringing
into existence that grave, mental state.
In women, for instance, insanity must
often be attributed to diseases peculiar
to their sex. Ample evidence has been
offered that constipation and various
other affections Of the abdomen are
among the exciting causes Diseases of
the ear as causes of insanity have long
been recognized; and it is also a well
known fact that it frequently has its or
igin in optical defects. Considering all
this and the varied influences which are
capable of making one insane, it has
been suggested that in insane hospitals
the superintendent and assistant system
should be abolished. and, instead, a
staff, made up of reputable specialists,
appointed, as in other hospitals, such n.
the Boston City hospital. Most assuredly
there is every argument in favor of such
an innovation Boston Herald.

Coffee and Typhoid Fever.

In a practice of twenty-five years, DR..
w. a. Cusick has not observed a fatal
issue in any case of typhoid fever where
the patient expressed a fondness for cof-
fee and used it freely in the course of
the sickness, and hence he has encour-
aged its free use unless ~interdicted by
some idiosyncrasy. He believes that
coffee imparts staying qualities" to the
system, which, in self limited
%fevers, will often tide the patient over
the critical period to convalescence
when he would otherwise sink and die.

How far from all sink drains, barn

FOREIGN FUR FADS.

The new sealskin capes have triple
folds of the fur and a turned down
collar.
The new dolmans, whether of plush,
velvet or seal, have very long, square
ends in front, but are quite short at the
back.
Both beaver and otter will be largely
used as trimmings, as well as in capes
and the long fiat boas that will again be
worn this winter:
Carmelite gray looks well when trim
med with natural astrakhan, and almost
as well when the fur is dyed black. Hats
and muffs are made to match the fur on
the dress, and even bonnets have a little
of it introduced in order to bring them
into harmony with the costume.
Dresses are to be much trimmed with
Astrakhan this winter, whether in its
natural tint of gray or in black. Bands
of the fur are introduced upon the skirts,
and others of less width trim the bodices.
The latter are often scarcely more than a
hem or border, though the collar is al
ways wide and protective.
Sealskin coats are made in the smoking
Jacket shape, which has proved SO popu-
lar. On a fine day they can be worn
thrown open, and on cold one they are
fastened in moment across the chest,
where the fur is then double. Others are
long enough to reach to the hem of the
dress but these are only appropriate to
midwinter. and even then are too heavy
for walking in.-Hatter and Furrier-
