81 have interested myself somewhat in
looking up unusual causes of death" said
DIR. Elder to reporter, "and have met sew
eral well authenticated instances where
fright was the cause. The English Surgeon
General Francis tells of n drummer in India

a cobra had bitten him, and it was too much
for his nerves, and he died Frederick Of

variably appear whenever the death of 9
member of the royal family was to occur
and he was thrown into fever and died il

A species of selfishness that from the
very nature of it has been but very little
condemned, though deserving far greater
reproOf than 1t has ever received is the
binding of letters upon the living by those
about to leave this world. Many promise
made to dying friend or relative has beer
the means of turning the whole current ol
life, and when it is too late TO be absolved
from the bond the bereaved one discovers
that in the agony Of parting VOWS were
taken that will act as u hindrance through
all the future.
Have Won not seen many instances wher,
n single sister has taken upon herself tn,
care df little ones left motherlessS Thi
charge, which the woman's soul regards a
a holy office, is in many instances the bar
rier between her and all the natural sweet
of this life which she had a right to expec
and to enjoy. The cares and responsible
ties attendant upon the bringing up Of til,
little ones left TO her charge age her lonl
