A Strange Case Of Insanity.

DR.. w. H. McCarney. who practiced
medicine in Shelton several years,
and through perpetual motion and
other troubles was confined in the asy-
lum short time, is reported by Seat
tie papers to have again shown signs
of insanity. He presented himself to
the County Clerk last Saturday, asking
that complaint be issued, as he said
he wanted to ascertain ''who he was
and where he is at" Mrs. Mccartney
died last spring, and this is probably
the cause of the Doctors present
troubles; at the preliminary examina-
ton he said: 81 started to study per-
petual motion some twenty-three
years ago and three years ago I COM
pleted a machine which solved the
whole problem which some seem to
think is little difficult. Well maybe
it is for some people. Some are little
slow, you know, but don't say ahy-
thing about it; you might hurt their
feelings. When I had finished Imy
machine and launched my great work
on the public-I tell you 1 like the
public--I was a little exhausted. X
Now what shall 1 do?' 1 said TO
myself. Something seemed to yhis-
per, Join the church, Not al bad

church, but someone said 1 wasIcrazy.

''Then my friends got so mean that
they shut down on my whiskey. Think
of it. They refused to give me whis-
ky. And whiskey is a nice thing,
isn't it, doctor? Yes, why of course it
is.
But the hardest blow of all came
when they sent me to the state asy-
lum from Mason county. I enjoyed
myself there for a week, secured my
release and after that spent much of
my time in examining the records of
Mason county. Do you know what I
discovered? No? Well didn't think you
did, so I'll tell you. discovered that
great crime or an awful forgery had
been committed. That's right. Some

Drv Bread as a Disinfectant.

Every one knows the cleansing power
of rubbing a dirty surface with bread
crumbs. This is the germ Of the Berlin
method.
A writer in a medical magazine de-
scribes the operation as carried out in
two rooms where a child had died OF
diphtheria. Four men were engaged.
After everything that could be subject
ed to steam without detriment had been
removed to the disinfecting station all
the things We're removed from the walls,
and the men began rubbing these with
bread. Ordinary German loaves are
used, 4S hours old. The loaves are cut
into substantial chunks about 6 inches
square, the back of each piece consist
ing Of the crust, thus allowing of a good
purchase. The walls are systematically
attacked with strokes from above down
ward, and there. car he no question as
to its efficacy in cleaning them, nor
does the operation take as long as one
would imagine. The crumbs are swept
up and burned. After this the walls are
thoroughly sprinkled with a 8 per cent
carbolic acid solution. The floor is
washed with a 2 per cent carbolic acid
solution, and all the polished woodwork
and ornaments as well.
