CHARACTER IN THE INSANE.
A Deeply Interesting Study, Though 6
Times Attended With Sadness.

A Deeply Interesting Study, Though at
Times Attended With Sadness.
If it is deeply interesting to study
character among the insane, it is also ut
times both saddening and humiliating.
We often look with indulgence upon
what we call harmless vanity or nat
ural love Of admiration in rather friv-
olous girl, but look at the same girl
when by some accident or misfortune
the mental balance is overthrown. Now
she believes and does not hesitate to say
that she is perfectly beautiful, has an
exquisite figure, is in every way charm
ing and attractive and that every man
who sees her Immediately falls violently
in love with her. It is only an absurdly
exaggerated sense of self Importance
that produces the very common delu-
sion that the patient is king or a
queen, even deity.
Again natural humility and tend
ency to self depreciation are frequent
ly exaggerated by disease into the de-
fusion that the patient is an object Of
dislike and contempt to every one, that
he has committed some crime, and that
consequently he is beyond redemption
and is regarded with horror by all
around him. If he is Of religious turn
of mind, he believes himself to be eter-
nally lost and sinks into state Of chron-
ic melancholy and apathy. On the other
hand, natural self reliance, no longer
controlled by common sense, expands
into belief that the patient has done
and can do feats beyond the power of
any mortal man.-Hospital.

Span ia 1918, and In Prussia IA i68a The
expiry IT these patents abroad would.
under the section quoted above, cause the
expiry Of any patent procured In the
United STATES, however long u N ght
otherwise have to run.
What s&r. HALL Would Accomplish.
Now it Is significant thing that there
should have been five different attempts
to rereal this very section Of the United
States laws. The effect of such repeal, as
has been seen, would be to make good
these lately obtained patents for the full
term Of seventeen years from the date Of
their issue. That is TO say. II this one
little obnoxious section can be got r,d Of,
the fact that patents were taken out
abroad, and that the art has there been
made free to the people, will not prevent
the United States from being held COM
pletely at the mercy Of the Bell Telepht No
Company until 1910.
No doubt Mr.. Hall can give an explana-
tion of why three Of these attempts to en-
trench monopoly behind our laws should
have been introduced under his meme,
one "by request" and the other two with.
out any such designation. But 1t GER
tainly seems singular that man should
innocently attempt so persistently to Sc
cure legalized monopoly at the cost of the
people for one of the richest, most grasp
ing and least admirable corporations of
the country.
There are several things which the Dem
ocratic representatives in this congress
will need TO explain to their constituents.
This one will do for beginning.

ARBITRATION COMMISSION.
The Pastor of u Pullman Church Tells til
Story of the Strike

The Pastor of q Pullman Church Tells the
Story of the Strike.
CHICAGO, Aug a0.-In the afternoon
the principal witness before the strike
commission was w. II. Carwardine,
pastor of the Methodist church at Pull
man. His evidence consisted chiefly Of
history Of the strike, which he de-
clared would never had occurred had
the Pullman company reduced rents
when it reduced wages. The witness
became indignant when asked if he was
an anarchist and denied it with EN-.
phasis.
A noticeable feature in the strike in.
vestigation which is being conducted
is the absence Of representatives Of the
railroads or employees. The audience
which gathers daily is just large enough
to fill every seat in the rear of the room,
but is composed of labor representatives
and their friends.
At the morning session Vice Presi-
dent Howard of the A. R. u. was re-
called. He desired to c;.n the commits
sion's attention to two facts-that the
United States government was now
blacklisting or boycotting 5000 ex-em.
ployes of the Union Pacific because of
their connection with the A. R. u, and
that the railroads of the country were
threatening to boycott the Missouri,
Kansas and Texas railroad unless it
Withdrew its low rate to Washington.
eve think if the government can
keep its hands off the railroads and let
them settle their difficulties by boycott
or any way they please, it should keep
it's hands off the employees"
A burst of applause from the audience
greeted this sentiment.

THE PEAR NUDGE.
The Damage Done by This Pest and the
Best Way to Hold It In Check.

The Damage Done by This Pest and the
Best Way to Hold It In Check.
The pear nudge is one of tho insects
which have been introduced into the
United States. within recent years and
are causing good deal Of injury in the
eastern states.
The adult insect or fly is described as
much resembling diminutive mosqui-
to. It makes its appearance very early
In the season before the pear blossoms
open. The female deposits her eggs in
the latter by piercing the petals or the
calyx. The nudge larvm live on the
substance Of the pear tissue, destroying
the seed and checking the growth of the
fruit, which decays and drops in early
summer. Our illustration shows sound
young pear and one deformed by the pear
nudge Larvae.
The great difficulty encountered in
fighting this insect lies in the fact that
there is no period at which it is within
reach of ordinary insecticides. The eggs
are laid i'll the bud before it opens, and
the young larvae get into the heart of
the fruit before it is fully formed. The
adult fly does not feed and is hence be-
yond our reach. 1t is only after the in
jury is done that the insect goes under
ground and within reach Of destructive
agencies.
As preventive measure it is recon-
mended that the trees be examined as
soon as the pears are well set and that
every infested or suspected pear be
picked off and completely destroyed,
while if an orchard is generally infested
the following practice is recommended.
Cultivate as usual, or if the orchard
is in grass or clover plow under after
June ID as soon as may be. Top dress
with kainit 1000 pounds to the acre to
benefit trees as well as to kill the in
sects. As soon as proper, say early in
August, sow crimson clover. This will
use up the potash not required by the
fruit trees and will store nitrogen as
well as occupy the ground. Early the
following spring turn this sod under as
deeply as may be proper. It should be
done before the pear buds are developed
in order to head off and destroy any
midges then in the pupa state near the
surface of the soil. This practice is at
the same time the best for the benefit of
the orchard. st. Louis Dispatch.

JOHN BULL IN AFRICA.
The Crafty Old Gentleman Now Owns About

The Crafty Old Gentleman Now Owns About
1,400,OGO Square Miles.
The latest acquisition Of African ter.
ritory gives Great Britain an unbroken
line across the length of Africa from
the Mediterranean and the Nile to the
extreme point of the continent. In all,
this territory, held in various ways,
from Cape Colony up to the ''occupa-
ton" Of Egypt, is in extent about 1, AGO.
600 square miles and has a population
of 80, 900, 900. In the Nile valley it in
cludes inoomparably the best Of north
Africa In Uganda it holds the key to
the lakes of central Africa, nearly as
large as our own lake system. The new
treaty gives it the high land west of
Lake Tanganyika, considerably higher
and healthier than the eastern, in Ger
man hands.
The new conquests Of the British
South Africa company add the great ia
blelands Of the interior of subtropical
Africa, in much Of which white men
live. Lastly, there is Cape Colony. the
only vital European settlement in all
Africa As it stands this great high
way holds two-thirds Of all of Africa in
which Europeans can live and carry on
efficient administration. It has the
most fertile tract in the continent in
Egypt, its healthiest in Cape Town, it's
greatest gold mines and the only region
from which tropical Africa can be con-
trolled.
Still more important is its relation to
African water courses A steamer can
start at Alexandria and run, when the
mahdi's successor is cleared away, to a
point on Albert Edward Nyanza, 1875
miles from Lake Tanganyika. This runs
to within 70 miles of Lake Nyassa. From
this lake the Shire river, broken at
Murchison falls, descends to the Gam

WHAT IS A MUMMY

a Chapter ef Interesting Information About
Some EHyi.tsssi Customs.
When q nlcnler of IN Egyptian fam
lily died, all the relatives put OH mourn
ing and abstained FROM baths, wine and
dolicac;es Of al kinds from 40 to 60
days, according to tho rank of tho per-
son deceased. Death in one respect put
an end to ali distinctions that had pre-
vailed in life, and king and slave were
subject to the Same law.
Tho record of the life Of the deceased
had to DO examined by tribunal Of -
judges before he coald DO given burial
with his ancestors. II tho deeds of his
life proved that he was worthy Of
burial, his body was carried across the
sacred lake, of which each province had
one, and WAS there permitted to rest If
the judges found him unworthy, even
though he belonged to the highest rank,
he could not DO buried with his ances-
tors. The body was returned to his rela-
tives and was buried On the side of the
lake opposite to the burial place Of the
just.
The belief of the Egyptians in fu-
ture state Of existence gave rise to the
practice of embalming the dead. They
wished to carefully preserve the body,
so that the soul upon its return to its
former abode at the end of all things
might find it ready for its reception.
Bodies were embalmed in three differ
emit ways. The most expensive and mag
nificent method was used upon the bod
les of kings and other persons Of dis
tinguished rank, the cost amounting to
a talent of silver, or 500.
A number of persons were employed
in the process of embalming, and they
were treated with great respect. They
filed the cavities of the body with
myrrh, cinnamon, spices and many
kinds of sweet smelling drugs
After certain time had elapsed the
body was swathed in lawn fillets, which
were glued together with kind of thin
gum, and then crusted over with costly
perfumes. By this mode of embalming
the shape Of the body, the lineaments
of the face, the eyebrows and eyelashes
were preserved in their natural perfec-
ton. Bodies thus embalmed are what
we now call Egyptian mummies.-Phil-
adelphia Times.

A famous widow.

One of the most lannon's widows OF
antiquity was Agrippina, the widow OF
Germanicus. During the lifetime of her
husband she attended him in all his
campaigns and shared his dangers. Sus-
pecting that her husband had been poi
soned, she had his presumed murderer
assassinated and was herself soon after
treated with such indignity by Tiberius
that she was driven to despair and starv-
ed herself to death.

There is marked popularity about
yellow fever which distinguishes it from
most epidemics. 1t is essentially dis

awaken it to life. It is said that it can
never prevail where Indian corn will
