Sufferers from "Gibberish Aphasfa."

The Edinburgh Medical Journal pub
fishes an article which, among other
things, discusses the question of the
effects of brain changes on speech. A
patient is mentioned who suffered from
what is called 'gibberish aphasia. )"
This poor man knew as well as any
body else exactly what was going on
around him. He was perfectly sane in
all respects and, if his tongue would
have obeyed his understanding, all
would have been we'll. But when he
began to speak nothing whatever but
absolute ''gibberish' would come out
of his mouth. The only coherent words
he could utter, and those only at times
and by accident, were: eff you please,
SIR" Another patient, who also was
sane, could not even read aloud cor
rectly from book when the page was
open before him. When ask ed, for ex.
ample, to read aloud the passage: ''It
shall be in the power Of the college to
examine or not to examine any licen-
tiate," he invariably read it thus: "An
the be. what in the tomothar of the
throthotodoo to majorum." This pa
tient recovered in due time and spoke
like other people.

Male and Female Brains.

A physician who has had much expe-
rience of the insane has examined the
brains of one thousand six hundred
subjects. He comes to the conclusion
that nature makes palpable differences
between male and female brains.
First, there is difference in weight,
the male being heavier, possibly by
one ounce, relative to weight of body;
second, while the frontal lobes are
equal in the sexes, the parietal are
larger in the male and the occipital in
the female, who, consequently, has
quicker perceptions; third, the female
brain is less convoluted in the gray
matter and has less service; fourth, the
blood supply is more copious in the
anterior lobes in the male and the
posterior has larger supply in the fe-
male, and these parts have different
activities. The blood of the female is
also poorer in corpuscles, there being
half million less IN a cubic milli-
meter. He fears that the tendency of
too much education or intellectual de-

COST OF BRITISH DEFENSE.
The Immense Expense Incurred by Eng
lands Military Operations.

The Immense Expense Incurred by Eng
lands Military Operations.
The British empire spends as rule
upon defense from $3.50, 900 to $780,
600, coo year, of which the military ex-
penditure of India, with the indirect
expenditure for the sake of India on
the mobile land forces at home, forms
the largest item, says Sir c. w. Dixie,
in North American Review. Almost
the whole of this vast sum is expended
out of British loans Or taxes under the
control of the parliament of the United
Kingdom, and out of India taxes under
the indirect control Of the house of
commons through the secretary OF
state, who is a member of the govern
ment of the day. This expenditure,
although vast, although open to the re-
proach that it does not do more than
maintain a feet slightly superior to
that of France, and an army OF very
small numbers, is a feabite as COM
pared lin it's i'll effect upon the wealth
of the nation) with the military ex-
penditure of Italy, or, in less degree,
with that of other continental powers.
The evidences of the overpressure OF
taxation in India itself, many as they
are, are slight in comparison with
those which are present in the case OF
Italy; and it may be assumed therefore
that, while the taxpayers of the United
Kingdom and Of India may make their
voices heard in insisting upon better
value for their money, the expenditure
will not in itself be brought to an end

UNDER The SPOUT.
A Strange Indian Method of Putting Lit
tie Ones to Sleep.

A Strange Indian Method of Putting Lit
tie Ones to Sleep.
Sir George Campbell records in his
Indian Memoirs a very strange habit
of native mothers in the neighborhood
of Simla. He seems inclined to recon-
mend its adoption in England, but per-
haps he is speaking in jest.
/ Iwonder not to have seen more no
tice of the curious practice of the hill
women of putting their babies heads
under spout Of wa ter to send them to
sleep and keep them quiet When the
new cartroad was first made, there
was village at halting-place where
rows of such children might be seen in
grove close to the road.
The water of hill spring was SO ad-
iusted as to furnish series of little
spouts, each about the thickness of
ones little finger. Opposite each
spout was a kind of earth pillow, and
little trough to carry away the water.
Each child was SO laid that one of the
water-spouts played on the top of it's
head, and the water then ran off into
the trough.
l can testify that the process was
most successful. There never were
such quiet and untrOublesome babies
as those under the spouts. The people
were unanimous in asserting that the
water did the children no harm, but
on the contrary, benefited and invig-
grated them. In fact, they seemed to
think that child not subjected to
this process must grow up soft-brained
and good-for-nothing
Certainly their appearance showed
no signs that this singular method of
bracing the intellectual part OF their
bodies had done them any harm.

A CLEVER BOSTON GIRL.
Even q Chicago Eackman Was Paralyze

Even q Chicago Eackman Was Paralyzed
by Her Financial Operations.
The Chicago hackman is supposed to
be endowed with a full allowance Of
the smartness peculiar to men in his
profession, but a Boston girl is cred
tied with getting the best of him. The
haclzman himself tells the story, says
the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette.
His name is johnson, and his business
during the summer has been mainly in
the service of the guests in the dormi-
tories of the Chicago university.
johnson has run daily excursions for
them through twenty-five mile drive
for one dollar,
Within two days after her arrival
johnson took the Boston young woman
out as one of his morning party. She
occupied the seat with him and piled
him with questions. On the following
day when he called for passengers
Johnson noticed this Boston girl flying
around in lively way. Soon she
came to him and wanted to know how
much he would charge to take forty
persons up to the center Of town and
back for an evening reception. He gave
his figures, and then she went shopping.
The next day she told Johnson she
could get the work done for twenty
eight dollars, and that he might as
well take the job at that figure. She
preferred his rigs, she said, because
they looked nicer than any she
had seen elsewhere. Johnson took
the job, and on the evening appointed
the young woman marshaled out her
forty people. They were in evening
dress and full of gayety. Suddenly the
Boston young woman sp ol1e out: 'We
may not all get together when we come
back and may be very tired Suppose
I collect the fares now and be done
with it?''
She did so, and each person paid he1
one dollar for the evenings transpor-
tation. She quickly counted out
twenty-eight dollars and gave it tC
Johnson, and placing twelve dollars in
her own purse rode to the event ng' S
reception with satisfied smile and a
most charming affability. Three days
later she did the same thing over
again. AS she put the twelve dollars in
her purse Johnson scratched his head
and says he mutter cd: We'll, Ill be
d-!'
The next time he proposed di-
vision of the spoils. She eyed him for
minute, saw that he was in earnest.
gave him four dollars out Of the twelve,
and after that they did business on
this basis. She got up sightseeing
parties inside the fair, theatrical
parties, lecture parties, made scores
Of friends, and at every move
seemed to add to her purse. Sc
well did she succeed that she had two
months at the fair and went home
with one hundred dollars in he1
pocket.
johnson says he has travelled about
good bit, his last excursion OF impor-
tance being a trip to the Paris expo
sition, but he never saw a person who
could ''do mp" Chicago hackmen as
that Boston girl did.

There are still many people, especial
ly in the interior parts of Japan, who
have never tasted any animal food in
their lives and look upon it with hor-
ror, while great many conservative
women do not touch it even at the
present day. Moreover, animal food is
expensive in Japan and is therefore
considered a luxury which is quite out
of the reach of the poor. During the
whole year of 1889 only 81, I'll bulls and
cows were killed in Japan to supply
meat for 10000, 900 people, and it is
worthy of note that there were 1o21'-
5O3 bulls and cows in the country dur
ing that year, while the number OF the
slaughtered probably included many
animals which were not slain for sup
plying human food.

MARRIAGE IN MASSACHUSETTS.
Some Reasons Why Yankee Women Have

Some Reasons Why Yankee Women Have
Long Outnumbcred tho Men,.
The excess of women over men has
long been feature Of the population
statistics of Massachusetts, and since
Mormonism is not permitted to -four
ish in that progressive state the natu-
raj effect of this feminine surplus has
been an unusual number of old maids.
The cause, says the New York Press.
is probably Horace Greeley's advice to
young men on the subject Of going
west. The Massachusetts young man
has been going west ever since, but we
decline to believe that it is his fault
that the Massachusetts, young woman
has not gone west with him. She
stayed behind, not that she loved the
Massachusetts young man less, but
that she loved Massachusetts, more,
especially Boston. But as the Massa-
chusetts young woman who did not
go west with the young man Of Horace
Greeley's day became an old maid she
missed the young man. She was left
to lavish the wealth of affection upon
eats, birds and other pets. And thus
L
maid, having nobody else to leave her
fortune to, recently left it to her pet
cat.
There are those who think the ten
dency of our time is toward reduction
in the ratio Of marriages to the pOpu-
lation of the marriageable. In one
sense this is a result of the continual
improvement in the independence and
general social condition of women.
Not only are they no longer the slaves
of men, but they are not obliged to tie
themselves to men in order to get a
living. AS civilization increases the
number Of occupations in which skill
and tact and passive endurance make
success, women, being often superior
in these respects, take possession of a
greater number Of places and crowd
men out. The tables seem to be turned
against the inquiry of Miss Mona
Caird: SIS Marriage a Failure?" This
question caused q great deal of discus
sion in print few years ago. If it is
to be answered in the affirmative
which heaven forfend-then it must
also be declared, on the strength of
the latest returns from Massachusetts,,
that singleness is failure too. This
leaves the relative merits of marriage
and of singlcness just where they were
before Miss Mona Caird dared to prick
the alleged bubble of matrimony with
her pen. If an old maid who died rich
was, nevertheless, so circumscribed in
the wealth of affection and home life
as to be obliged to endow cat, what
can be said of the success of old maids
who never get rich even in money?

A Japanese Tea Room.

Huge japanese umbrellas are serv-
iceable for many things, but one seen
recently is SO peculiarly striking as to
deserve especial comment. It hangs
from a hook in the ceiling of small
room in an artists home and forms
the entire ceiling. Beneath it is the
tea table and all its paraphernalia,
together with a bamboo settee and Eve
chairs, all set upon japanese rug.
The tea service is Of fine Japanese ware
and the tea itself comes from Japan;
the entire room is complete, and one
feels on entering that it is veritable
bit Of the land Of clrysanthemums.

day they literally swarm. The herd
ers go out very early in the morning
and stay all day. 1t is continual bat

An Intelligent Horse.

A Baptist deacon down in Maine
thinks that ne owns the most know
ing horse in the world. 1t is quite a
Young animal. He tells that one day
not long ago he drove. with his wife,
out to his farm in the country, and,
tying the horse to a hitching post,
walked with her to look at the condi-
ton OF the fields. The horse stood
quietly for awhile, but finally growing
restive, he broke the hitching strap
and started for home. He had not
gone very far, however, when he con-
cluded that it would not be fair to
leave the deacon and his wife to walk
home, so he turned around, retraced
his steps, as the buggy tracks plainly
showed, and quickly followed them
into the field. Coming up beside his
mistress he looked at her and then at
the buggy with a whinny as much as
to say, If you are going my way you
had better get in" This story, Of
course, cannot be doubted, as dea-
con told it.
