name and arms Of the late duke Of
Somerset. With the following extraor-
diEary lines at the foot: The twelfth

This stone was prepared by the

the duke. who died last year, suffered
all his lie from an idee fxe concerning

SERMONS WEAR OUT.


Even Good Ones Had Better he Burned
After Being Preached y Few Times.
ut is a very long time since preached
written sermon in the pulpit says
the bishop of London. according to the
Times OF that city. ''but when l did
preach written sermons, which l did
for considerable number of years,
always used to find that If / had
preached the same sermon in different
places, say, five times, had had enough
of it-whether other people had had
enough of it or not. l became thor
oughly tired of the whole thing, and
was obliged to turn my mind to some
thing altogether different; and have
always advised preachers, after having
preached discourse a certain number
of times, without laying down how long
they might have been in doing it, to burn
such sermons. am convinced myself
that the best way always is to write
your sermon three times over and then
to burn it and preach what you remem-
Der of it. But even that will not do
when you give up writing sermons, and
when you come to speaking, not with
out previous preparation, but without
any previous writing of it. 1t will not do
simply to burn what notes you have
written, because then the words stay in
your mind, and If you have to speak
out, they come whether you want them
or not. They are ready and the occa-
sion seems TO present itself, and the
words seem as if they had q sort of in
dependent action of their own, and
they say: Here's my place. and out
thew come"

INSANITY AND GENIUS.
The Fundamental Cause OF Both Is Ex-
cessive Nervous Energy.

The Fundamental Cause OF Both Is Ex-
cessive Nervous Energy.
''It is generally held in science that
the average man is the soundest man,
for il is upon hum that nature relies for
the continuance of the species. and not
upon extremes of variations" said DR..
A. Macdonald the other evening before
the Washington Anthropological socie-
ty. according TO the Post of that city.
Human abnormality might be divided
into three general forms, insanity,
genius and crime. The conclusion is
not that geniuses are insane, but that
great talents are not given to men
without some cost to the healthy
equilibrium of nerve and brain. II it
be objected that these morbid symptoms
are very common among the billiards
and weak minded, this would indicate
that they are as far below the average
as the geniuses are above.
In saying that genius manifests the
symptoms of nervous or mental dis
ease we mean an excessive nervous or
brain action. Many forms of insanity
are also manifestations of similar ex-
cessive action Such action in one in
dividual can give rise TO most wonder
ful, original and brilliant ideas. and we
call IL genius. In another individual It
produces also wonderful and original
thoughts, but often highly absurd. and
we call it insanity. But it appears that
in general the fundamental cause in
both genius and insanity is the same
that is. it is excessive mental or ncrv-
Gus energy.

THREE-TOEo GAME.
The Tapir Is . Difficult Animal to Find
and to Capture.

The Tapir IL . Difficult Animal to Find
and to Capture.
In the wilder part OF South America
you can bag deer or wild hog al
most any day if you set wisely about it,
but months may pass without even the
sight of tapir, though you may be in
their haunts continually.
You see plenty of unmistakable three
toed tracks, and now and again you
may hear tapirs moving in the forest
not leaping through openings between
the vines and branches as deer does,
nor pushing the brush aside like a
jaguar. but c. shing their way by sheer
strength, with n great cracking Of
twigs, says St. Nicholas.
1t is almost useless to follow tracks
or sound; clumsy as the animals appear,
they can race through the underbrush
faster than dog can follow, and they
are so keen of sight and scent and so
prone to concealment that even the
most experienced hunter rarely catches
sight of one in the daytime, unless by
accident. The best plan is to lie in
wait for them, as the 1.-the and crafty
jaguar does, by their drinking and
watering places, and this must be done
at night.
/ may as well add here that tapirs
are common all over South and Cen
trail America except the thickly-settled
regions and the Pacific coast. Natural
lists distinguish several species, differ
ing mainly in size and the structure of
the bones, but they are much alike. Al.
go singly, or in bands generally of twp
or three, and feed on fruits and leaves.

The Toothless Tortoise.

Very few people know that neither a
turtle nor tortoise nor toad is pro-
vided with teeth, remarks an exchange.
There is general superstition that a
turtle can bite off mans finger, but
the turtle can do nothing of the kind.
It's jaws are very strong, and the horny
membrane that runs around the jaw,
where in other animals teeth are found,
is so hard and tough that the turtle can
crush the bones of the hand to pulp,
but as for biting off even finger the
feat is, to the turtle, an impossibility.

il IS as plain 10 my eyes to-day as II was
then We had been bothered by horse
thieves down on the frontier, and yoa
know what that means IN wild coun-
try. A crowd of US started out after
the scoundrels. and just before we
reached the Rio Grandc we saw two
horsemen off 10 the left, who acted sus-
piciously. After them we went, and 1t
was pretty race for awhile till they
disappeared behind q clump of trees
We had shot 10 stop them, and when
we got in sight again we found that one
horse had been shot, and they had de-
serted him, while both were riding the
other They were evidently Mexicans
"a man and a boy-and the man
showed fight, turning and firing at us,
finally hitting our deputy sheriff. We
gained on them rapidly, and presently a
well-directed fire sent them all in heap.
When we reached them the boy was
kneeling in front of the dying Mexican,
sobbing and moaning as il her heart
would break, while her hair, which had
fallen from her cap, fell below her
waist. 1t was case of elopement, and
they had taken us for her fathers serv-
ants. while we had been equally stupid
and had taken them for horse thieves.
When be began to gasp she drew a lit
tie pearl-handled revolver, and before
anyone cos,ld think of stopping her
into his arms, a corpse. No, we never
heard who they were. We buried them
and went after the horse thieves"

SELECTING A HAT.
An Expert Tells How to Do It In the
Right Way.

An Expert Tells How to Do It In the
Right Way.
There is a point on every mans head
where that particular man should wear
his hat, says the Outfitter. Some men
can wear their hats well down, close to
the eyebrows, and look well in doing SO.
Other mems appearance would be fatal
ly ruined by wearing their hats so low.
Now and then man can adopt an
irregular pose for his hat, sideways,
"down in 'front.'" or little back, and
not lose caste as q reputable member OF
society. All the same, whatever posi-
ton of the hat is found to be becoming
and comfortable should be adhered to,
and no new hat accepted which does
not reach and stop at that point.
In determining the proper hat bear
ings it is well to take side view as
well as the front view of ones self with
the hat on. The hat should come down
low enough to take q firm grip on the
head when the wind blows.
