| Sucz canal to Said Pacha and two years
later secured the desired concession. The
canal was opened for steamers of light
draught in 1866, and the full plans were
carried to completion i'm 1869. Since 1873

from the Colombian government the ex-
elusive privilege of constructing the canal
and Immediately set about organizing

to organize company with capital of
500, 000 600, coming to tho United States
frequently to advance the vast project.
The company was constituted in January,
1881, and in October of the Same year
work was begun. But this company also
failcd, and shortly aftcrward were insti-
tuted the celebrated trials in the French
chamber of deputies which found the vet
Gran engineer guilty of practicing fraud
and sentenced him to imprisonment, from
which he escaped only by the clemency of

SMALL FlOCHS PAY.

Mistake of Keeping Two Hens Where
There Is Room For but One.
1t is mistake to keep too many fowls.
Large flocks are often as bad for the
fowls as crowded tenements are for hui
man beings. A space of 10 feet square
should be allotted each fowl for exer.
else. A house 10 by 10 is not too large
for ten hens and one male, and q dozen
hens are sufficient as the maximum
number for that space. 1t will pay to
sell off the surplus. Measure the space
you have in square feet, and then di-
vide by ten, which will give you thenum.
Der of hens that will DO properly &C.
commodated with room.
Small flocks assist in appropriating
waste food that would otherwise be of
no value, and the labor bestowed upon
small flock is of no consideration
whatever, as q child may perform all
the work Of feeding. When wo see the
records of q small flock of dozen, we
are always reminded that the cost pro-
portionately is lower than for large
flock, and a profit Of SO or So per hen
is not unusual but when it comes to
keeping large numbers the conditions
are then changed. Table scraps, which
are potent with u small flock, become
an insignificant portion of the food for
large number, and the farmer OF the
poultryman finds his expenses for food
and labor increased more proportionato-
ly for large flock than for smaller
one. Nothing gives more satisfactory
results or affords greater pleasure than
flocl' of about dozen hens. Each hen
in tn, flock is well known to every
member of the family, and if one per.
son heglects them some one will be
sure to notice tho fault. They are pets
and receive the very best of care. If
tho weather is severely cold or u rain
storm sets in, the hens are looked after
as carefully rs if they were members Of
the family, and they will lay and we'll
repay for all the care that may be be-
slowed upon them. Those who keep
but few hens (mostly those who live in
suburbs of q city, aim TO procure some
thing good. The pure breeds are used,
because it is a pleasure to have them,
scrubs being rare. When the farmers
adopt this plan, they will find greater
croft.

his bill complete and argued in it's favor

Then Horace White presented a bill. In
discussing the general question White
made this remark: ''It has been said that
there is no moro reason why the govern

and the farmer were allowed to circulate

THE PATHOLOGICAL NOVEL.
A Medical View of the Latest specialt
in Modern Fiction.
From the Medical Bulletin.


Among physicians The Heavenly
Twins" is looked upon, not as a literary
venture to be judged by artistic standards,
but as a readable presentation of symp-
toms which suggest definite pathological
conditions.
Ships That Pass in the Night is ad-
mirable as a pulmonary record, and The
yellow Aster" affords an insight into the
psychic phenomena resulting from neglect
of natural instincts and desires, which,
surviving the appropriate period of life,
subsequently assert themselves in the
form Of belated maternal love and eX-post
facto philoprogenitveness
As to Miss Harraden's book, while we
find it useful in the profession for lts
glinpses into refined siCk-rOOm cOnversa-
ton and pulmonary persifage, we regret
from a medical point of view, that afJer
giving such a careful history of the hero
ines case the author permitted her TO be
killed bv an omnibus. 1t is humliating
after following attentively the course OF
the disease and the method of treatment
to be told that an omnibus was the cause
Of death, and to be dismissed without
hearing the result of the autopsy. More
over. we found her style SO delightful that
to the last hemorrhage, but that, too, was
denied US.
sarah Grand's cases are open to the
same objection of incompleteness. she
starts out enticingly with such a charac-
ter for instance, as Ediths husband
but leaves the later and more interesting
phases of his pathological history untold.
AS a general rule, however. she comes up
to the requirement of modern fiction; the
cases of most of her characters can be
diagnosed; and with "a little more clinical
experience we have no doubt that her
future novels Will be above reproach.
There is danger lest in the nrSt stage
of the medical movement IN literature
Young writers will attempt to cover too
wide a pathological area in their novels,
and forget the inexorable law of special
ism that obtains in the medical profession
itself
To introduce a paretic or ataxic pa
tient in a dermatological novel would not
| only destroy the unity of the story,
but would justly expose the author 10
a suspicion of want Of thOroughness.
/ If the writer has determined upon appen-
dicitus as his plot he should not waste
his energies upon trrelev int diseases IN
his minor characters. Ha could gain va
rietv BY introducing other forms OF en-
teric disorders but should never eN-
coed the limits of the abdominal region.
Until he has had a thorough medical
training we think the course of single
disease should supply him with all the
/ nedico-literary material that he can ham
die in an Intelligent manner A blow on
the head supplied the author of God $
Fool with all the plot that he needed;
/ Ibsen's Ghost is simply the dramati-
zation Of an inherited brain disease, and
