ourselves befogged and hemmed in by ice
bergs. For 30 hours the ship drifted help

be ground between the icebergs that we
knew were towering above us, but which

the fog lifted and we had an unobstructed

Carrying the Remains of Defunct Pilgrims
to the Gates of Paradise.

October morning as our caravan moves
toward the bridge over the Holman riv-
er, that leads to the town of Khanekin,
the customs and sanitary station OF the
Ottoman government, about three hours
distance from the Turko-Persian from
tier 1t is singular cavalcade we form,
too a veritable Caravan of the dead,
for the true pilgrims among us are main
ly defunct Persians, whose remains are
being conveyed direct to djennet, the
"gates of paradise, " at the feet of their
great saint and Aga, the Imam Husseln,
at Kerbela In front, and perched high
up on the biggest camel that could be
begged, borrowed or hired for the jour
ney, rides our tshaush, or conductor,
swarthy and turbanned, the blue in his
garments proclaiming him a said or de-
scendant of the prophet. The prophet, l
may remark in passing, has score OF
such in every Persian village. He holds
aloft the royal ensign of the empire of
the sun and lion, bearing the name Of
the shah and his own below it in letters
of gold Following him march the
naashkesh, Or carriers of the dead, y
each at the head of a long string Of
mules laden with the remains intrusted
to them.
The animals are led by charvadars-
muleteers-and each bears two bodies,
one slung on either side where the pan
niers would ordinarily be. The corpses,
when intact, are carried in hermetical-
~ closed cases, but comparatively few
of these are to be found, as rule,
among these defunct pilgrims. The ex-
pense would be too great. So the pious
Persian who desires to give effect to the
last wish of his departed parents waits
until nothing of their remains is left
but the skeleton, which is then swathed
in bandages, mummy fashion, and hand
ed over to the naashkesh to be taken to
the gate of paradise, which every good
Shute firmly believes is at the exact spot
where the sainted Hussein is buried in
Kerbela. Far the greater number of the
mules comprised in our caravan are
laden with such bandaged bones and
swathed skeletons slung on each side,
the outlines showing distinctly through
wrappings as they swing to and fro
with the measured pacing of the ami
mails. London Standard.

was slow to see the point of joke On
trying a case on one occasion the solic,

Sarah Mooney. AS she did not answer
he informed the court that he could
not proceed without ceremony. " The
bar laughed, but the judge looked puz-
zled. Some weeks after that when at
home the point dawned on him. and he
broke into loud laugh. Upon his wife
inquiring the cause of his merriment
he explained that the solicitor had call
ed Sallie Mooney. and when she did
not answer he had said he could not
proceed without ceremony. The wife
said she did not see the point. The
Judge said it had taken him three weeks
to find it, but when she did see 1t 1t
would be very funny. Bag.

A CURIOSITY OF LUNACY.
Periodic Recurrence of Mania, by Which
the Patient Lives Three Lives.


There is a special form Of mental dis
ease first described in France, whose
definite character is given to it by its
periodicity, and hence it is called folie-
circuIaire. In it there are three sections
Of the mental circle that the patient
moves in-viz, elevation, depression and
sanity-and in this round he spends his
life, passing out of one into the other,
for it is, when fully established, very
incurable disease.
The patient takes an attack of mania,
during which he is joyous restless,
troublesome, extravagant and often
vicious. He eats vOraciOusly, sleeps lit
tie and never seems to tire. His tenn.
perature is a degree or so above the nor
NAL, his eye is bright and glistening,
he is enamored of the other sex, he
shows diminished self control and no
common sense.
This lasts for few weeks, or few
months more commonly, and then he
passes sometimes gradually and some
times rather suddenly into a condition
of depression, during which he is slug
gish, dull, looking differently, dressing
differently, eating differently, fearful,
unreliant and sedentary in habits.
This state will last a few weeks or
months, and the patient will brighten
up into what seems recovery and is to
all intents and purposes in his normal
state. This again lasts for few weeks
or months, and he gradually gets NOR
bidly elevated. You find he is passing
through every minute mental phase and
habit he did at first. Depression follows,
as before, and then sanity, and this
round of three states of feeling, of intel
lect, of volition, and of nutrition, goes
on, circle after circle, till the patient
dies He lives three lives Hospital.
