Twelfth Day.

Tradition runs that the twelfth day from
Christmas day was remarkable for having
been that upon which the visit of the Magl
took place, upon which Christ was hap
tized, the water at Cana turned into wine,
and the 5000 fed. For 300 years it was kept
by eastern Christians as the day upon
which Christ was born, and among the
English it was long observed with great
festivities We are told that in the reign
of King Alfred law was passed, by vir
tue of which the twelve days after the ma
tivity of our Saviour were made festivals"
The last day was accounted the greatest of
the twelve, and especially given up to
christmas gambols" and the visiting of
friends. This custom seems long to have
continued in force, for in the Sixteenth
century Twelfth Day seems to have been
kept with as much zeal as Christmas. The
royal family at court led the way, the uni
versities and the inns of court following
them in the extent of their festivities
At the temple the whole twelve days
were kept with great care, and many of
the country gentlemen followed the same
custom. In some parts of England the
very poorest people contrived to keep these
twelve days with such good cheer for
themselves and their neighbors us their
means would allow.

CAUSE OF sHAKEsPEARE's DEATH.
Did the IIIustriOus Bard Die of Pneu-
monia?-A Plausible Theory.

Did the IIIustrious Bard Die of Pneu-
monia?-A Plausible Theory.
Americans and English alike are en-
tranced with Shakespeare. They love the
nan and all belonging to him, and now
they are discussing the question, "Of what
did Shakespeare dieY Following up this
inquiry writer in the New York Medical
Record communicates the theorytha the
poet died of some respiratory lesion, prob
ably pneumonia The evidence on which
this theory rests is worked out somewhat
as follows:
The age of the poet at death Cifty-two) is
connected with a period of life when the
mortality from pulmonary diseases is def
nitely increased in proportion to other
causes. His death occurred during the
month of April (the 23d), which lin Eng
land is a month of treacherous changes in
temperature and in weather" Some time
prior to his death, it is urged he passed an in
terval of excessive conviviality, land quite
likely of deep intoxication, in the compan
ionship of convivial friends" That means
that he placed himself in a situation from
which reckless personal exposure would
naturally arise. Here are three factors
which favor the development of pneumonia,
and the legend runs that at the last drink
ing bout he contracted a fever from which
he died "Fevers," says the writer, do
not come in this way; pneumonias do
The writer supplements his argument
by referring to the casts from the mask of
the face taken after death, from which the
sculptor has copied the face of the great
man. The mode of death leaves something
of the character Of the fatal disease on the
dead face. Sudden, violent death arrests
the muscles in their last contraction
From the soldiers half parted lips the oath
or battle cry seems just to have sped
The brakeman, gone to immediate death
in a crush, bears upon his face the imprint
of his last thought--of duty, of home or
what? The expression of lingering or
wasting disease touches the physlognomy
differently; death stands near so long that
the body becomes accustomed to his pres
ence, and he is not unwelcome. AT the
end his hand is often gentle, and the fea
lures of the dead simply betoken placid
rest"
On the other hand the course of death in
pneumonia ''is laboliOus." Toward the
end the expression of the face becomes like
that of one who is toiling under a burden,
breathIessly and without rest. The close
of life is the first pause from utter weari
ness and exhaustion" and 1.-THE character
istic pneumonia expression remains after
death" On comparing the Shakespeare
death mask with the face of the dead of his
time of life from pneumonia the identity
the author thinks, can scarcely be mis-
taken. "That which Mr. Carpenter has
described as look of ineffable sadness is
the true pneumonia physiognomy-the
look of one who has been tired-painfully
tired unto death"
