over my experience. There are, Of
course. many kinds Of insanity.
Some mental disorders take place 90
gradually that even the closest com.
panions of the victim are at q loss to
remember when the trouble began.
II must have been this way in my
case. One evening. after an oppres-
sively warm day, q day when I ex-
periencsd more fatigure from the heat
than even before or since, I sat on my
porch tanning myself. "This arm
that is now in motion" I muaed,
"must one of these days be dust. I
wonder how long will the time be. +"
Then ! unused upon the evidence I had
of Immortality. I could do things

after battle. and though bullets sang
and struck around me as thick 10
hail. yet I remained uninjursd. I
had passed through epidemics Of ysl.
low fever. MY idea grined strength
% I unused, and I was convinced that
I should live forever. No. this can
not be. for death follows all men
alike. Yes. I am to die like other
men. and believe tina. it is my duty to
make the most Of life; 10 make money,
and enjoy myself. and to educate my
children. I want to be rich, and I
began to study over an imaginary list
Of enterprises. At last I hit upon
radishes. People must have radishas.

that she was soon TO be q radish
queen. At the breakfast table I said:
"Julis, how would you like TO be .
radish queena" "a whail" she ex.
claimed. ] explained my plan Of
acquiring great wealth. and during
the recital she behaved 90 curiously
that was alarmed. feared she was
losing her mind. She agreed with
me, but told me not to say anything
more about it. After breakfast
saw her talking earnestly with her
father, and I knew that she was ex.
planning to the old gentleman how shc
intended to pay his debts when
became know IS radish king. The
old man approached me with much
concern, and told me that I needed
rest and that I must not think OF
business. he was old and sadly wor-
ried. and ! promised him that I would
not think of business. Pretty soon !
went out TO inspect my radish king

man following me. From the field I
went to tbs. village. ! approached
q friend. and told him bow I intended
10 become rich. he seemed grisved.
