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 0aegeight of bodys
second, while the sptal lobes are
equal in the sexes, ~ narietal are
larger in the male and tile oecipital in
the female, who, consequently, has
quicker perceptions; third AAe female
brain is less conyoluted ia the gray
matter and has less service; fourth. t'ie
blood supply is more copious in the
anterior lobes in the male and the
hosterior has q 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-
velopment in women is to make them
hose beauty. He instances the Faro
women OF India. They are supreme.
They woo the men, control the affairs
ofthe home and nation, transmit prop
ertE and leave man nothing TO do, The
result Is that they are the ugliest
women on earth.

Plays For Young Girls.

Many wise mothers think that The
theater should be reserved for adult iifes5
They regard il as a stimulant and to be-
unnecessary for the growing mind, II,
may be compared to those drugs which
relieve headache by affecting the heart.
Still the mother who would make Of
her girl ''a woman holy and wise' will
not exclude the theater. But outside of
some special representations of Shake
speare she will select only simple plays,
such as "Trip Van Winkle, Sweet Law
ender," wholesome comedy where the
deep passions of life are not exhibited,
where the sinful follies of youth are not
presented for sympathy and for commits
eration.
There is one other class Of plays which
she may some time allow for the same
reason that she eheerfully provides ro-
nance in books, and that is the real, old
fashioned rielodrama in which the hero
is triumphant, she villain is brought to-
Justice and all comes out right in the
end. Such treat is like the ''frolics"
at surprise parties and straw rides, which
were enjoyable because Of their rarity,

mepting on this singular state of af-
fairs the Massachusetts. bureau Of sta
tistics Of labor notes an increase in
this class of property in townships
where the value vf the manufacturing
product predominates and a decrease
in those townships in which the .agri-
cultural product exceeds in value that
Of the factories. Touching the causes
OF this abando donment the report says:
There is a strange fascination in city
life which has always existed and
which leads many who are under its
spell TO prefer poverty and privation in
the city to independence and comfort
in the country. This fascination is in
tensifed by the undoubted benefits
which the modern city offers TO those,
within or near it. And yet it must be
admitted that the promise which leads
to the abandonment of country life is
frequently unfulflled. The movement
from the country toward the city may
affect, indeed has affected, the labor
market in two ways; it may lead to a
dearth of agricultural labor in the de-
p1eted districts, thus adding to the
burdens which in too many cases the
farmer already bears, and it may in
tensify the competition to which the
city laborer is subjected, both as to
employment and as to wages. This
competition reacts upon those who
come to the city for the purpose of inn
proving their fortunes, only to find the
opportunities open to them constantly
growing less. On the other hand, the
life of the farmer, notwithstanding its
burdens, was never SO easy in many re-
spects as at present. The improve
ments due to modern invention have
lightened farm labor, while the rail
road, the telegraph and the press have
brought the most retired farms into
communication with the activities of
theage. The farmer may not be able
to amass wealth, nor can the majority
Of those in cities hope to do so. He is
generally sure OF comfortable living
as the reward Of his toll, and the con-
tingencies that affect his employment
are usually no greater than those af-
fecting employment in cities, If OPP
portunities for large profits are not
open to him he Is relieved from the
risk incidental to such opportunities.
That some of the burdens under which
he suffers might be and ought to be
removed is undeniable; but there are
those in the city, working for low
wages, liable to periodical employ
ment, to whom life on the abandoned
rN1n would offer an agreeable change;
and they must first be convinced that
Az d change is desirable.

A Grease Fiiter For Boilers.

A filter for removing grease, which
often passes into boilers with the feed
water, consists Of metallic chamber or
filter box in which are aseries of gratings,
and between these gratings are placed
layers of wire gauze and flannel of spe-
cial texture, which forms the filtering me-
dunn. The feed water from the donkey
pump enters the filter box from one side,
passes upward through the filter cloths
and thence out TO the boiler, the scum
passing away through another outlet.
BY this means it is found that all grease
and greasy matter, as well as other i'm
purities, are arrested by the filter cloths,
which can be readily taken out for clean
ing or renewal. The filter is equally ap-
plicable to land and marine boilers

Mourning Paper.

Mourning paper isl satirein itself. 1t
wears the deepest possible black margin
for the first six months, say. Then it
grows a little narrower. Is that a sign
that you are not mourning so much as
you were during the first half year,
Next year it is narrower still. The grief
is greatly mitigated. The third year it
is mere streak. Your sorrow does not
amount to much nowl The next year
the black border has entirely disap-
peared. Does that mean that you have
forgotten your bereavement? Thatwould
be the logical interpretation, and yet in
the case of how many whose stationery
has gone through this diminishing per-
spective to the vanishing point the sor-
row has been even more bitter after
years perhaps than it was at first. BIOS

The Contents Of Paper Found On the Per-
son of an Insane Suicide. "a.
Here is story Of the supernatural. It
happened more than 100 years ago, SO
that you may hope that it is not true.
Yet in those days the invention Of news
was not yet known, and the paper which
contains this story was sober and hon
est journal. One of the patients in o
madhouse-a parish nadhouse, / think
that of Launceston-escaped. That was
20 new thing. They all wanted to es-
cape. As the woman, although very
mad indeed, was quite harmless, they
went about their search in leisurely
fashion At last they found her drowned
in shallow diech and carried her back
to the madhouse.
On preparing the unhappy woman for
the grave they found in her oorset-then
called her stays something that rustled.
They cut the thing open and discovered
small parcel rolled up tight in some
waterproof stuff-whatever was then in
vented. The parcel was a document
written on parchment. 1t was written
very small and misspelled, but this was
how it ran: 4
"The man came along after dark. He
stopped at our door and said he was
stranger. and would my aunt take him
in for the night? He seemed a sailor
and said he was respectable and showed
money. Elizabeth, said aunt, 'he can
have your room, and you shall sleep with
me- There were two bedrooms in the
cottage, up a ladder, both garrets. Dur
ing the evening he sent me out for
drink, and he had a lot and was drunk,
but he got up the ladder safe and SO to
bed. In the night heard aunt get out
of bed. There was a moon shining in
the skylight window.
''She took something and went into
the mans room. Then was frightened
and sat up in bed. and heard sound
as of a blow and nothing more. Present
ly aunt came back, and in the moonlight
she saw me sitting up in bed. Get up :
she said; go down stairs and get, if you
can, a light So / did and brought the
rushlight up the ladder Aunt had the
Bible in her hand. Swear she said,
that you will never tell any one what
has been done So / swore, trembling,
and wished l might go suddenly mad if
l told Then, says she, I've killed the
lodger. His pockets were full of guineas,
and I'm q made woman. But you must
help me-
$50 she made me help to drag the body
down into the room below and out in the
garden, where we dug a hole under the
cabbages and laid it as deep as we could.
Then we covered all up and went back
to the house and waited till daybreak.
As soon as it was light we washed up the
place, and nobody ever found out. One
night, when / was q woman grown, the
dead man came to my bedside and said,
Tell the story and I said, I cannot be-
cause swore.' He said: If you tell, you
have sworn to go mad. If you do not
tell, 1 will haunt you till you do go mad
$50, as am bound to go mad either
way, I have written the story down and
sewn it up. When am dead, somebody
will find it and will dig up the poor man
and bury him in o churchyard. The
house is situated"
Thus the narrative. And they dug up
the garden in the place indicated and
found the dead body in what had been
sailors clothes.-W Walter Besant in Lon

hk dnniest street sign that eeer
hung over New York door is that of q
barber on Hudson street near where the
city's thoroughfares get tangled up in
such confusion at Abingdon square.
The owner Of the shop is darky and is
very fond OF big words. SO when he
had his sign painted he had it made to
read. 'tTonsorial Parlor," instead of just
plain Barber Shop This sign hung
for nearly a year. Then some wag
probably told him that there was
moro elegant wording which might
draw custom TO his shop. Within a
week new sign, resplendent In red,
white and blue, hung out proclaiming
that "Tonsorial Abattoir" might be
found within. 1t is not known whether
the shop is more literally patronized
nnder its new designation as a hair
dressing butcher shop or not, but GER
tainly the darky is very happy over the
length and impressive appearance of the
new word on his sign.-New York

The Australian Kea.

The Australian kea has been written
about considerably, and q writer in The
Cornhill Magazine ascribes TO them an
intelligence which can be called nothing
but devilish. He says the kea was once
harmless bird, but with the introduce
ton of slaughter houses it has developed
taste for animal food, and especially
for kidneys They like the kidneys Of
dead sheep SO well that when these failed
they proceeded to eat out the kidneys Of
living sheep, leaving the poor beasts to
die a most agonizing death
