"THE FREE PRESS" SPEAKS,
Deduces Several Conclusions from the
RiotOus Mass-Meeting.

Deduces Several Conclusions from the
Riotous Mass Meeting.
The Detroit Free Press, commenting
uoon the now famous mass-ine citing the
other night, says:
"Noisy as the gathering was, and i'm
possible as il was to bring about even the
semblance of order, the temper of the
crowd was so distinctly against the
mayor and his methods that his defeat
cannot be gainsaid.
1.-The point most clearly demonstrated
by last nights meeting at the Auditorium
was the utter impracticability OF town
meeting government in city as large as
Detroit. Even had the crowd been an
orderly one-as it emphaticaily was not.
il would have been impossible to trans
act any serious business with so large
'gathering-the largest by all odds ever
assembled in the building, The citizens
meeting, therefore, as a governing force,
or even as an advisory proceeding, may
as well be definitely abanddhed. The
theory is an excellent one, bat it cannot
be made to work in practice.
"The noisy element predominated in the
matter of lungs; but it was very evident
that besides the noisy ones there were
hundreds of solid men of the city, WHO
had come to the meeting because of their
righteous indignation over the wretched
end wicked mismanagement of the city's
sanitary affairs, and the peril which such
mismanagement has brought. If either
Mayor Pingree or Health Officer Mcleod
went to the meeting in any doubt as to
the estimate put upon their course by the
intelligent public, they cannot have taken
any fragment of that doubt home with
them. They must have seen in the earn
est faces which made up so large portion
of the audience called out by the impudent
proclamation Of the mayor the plainest
evidence of disapproval.
''In spite of the fact that regular action
was impracticable, owing to the noise and
confusion, the municipal atmosphere
ought to be clearer for this meeting.
That the Legislature will size up the situ-
alton properly and know how to act, can
not be doubted 1t is unfortunate that we
have been compelled to appeal to that
body for relief in the emergency by which
we are confronted; but 1t Is certainly q
smaller evil that the public health of the
city should be cared for by board ap-
pointed from Lansing than it should not
be cared for at all. The spread Of an cpl
dcmic with all its horrors Is too big a
price to pay even for so cherished right
as home rule. To that rule, as q princi-
Die, we are all committed, but almost any
conceivable kind of rule is better than
the sham variety of home rule from
which the city has suffered since the
smallpox broke out"

CURIOSITY OF LuxAoY.
Periodical Mnnin by Which the Pa.

Periodical Mania by Which the Pa.
tient Lives Three Lives.
There is special form Of mental
disease. first described In France,
whose definite character Is given to Ii
by Its periodicity, and hence it is called
folie circulaire. Init there are three
sections Of the mental circle that the
patient moves In, viz, elevation, de-
preston and sanity, and in this round
he spends his life, passing out Of one
into the other, for 1t is, when fully es-
tablished, o 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
little and never seems to tire. His tenn
perature is a degree or % above the
normal, his eye Is bright and glistening,
he Is enam0red of the other sex, he
shows diminished self-control and no
common sense. This lasts for a few
weeks. or a few months more com.
monty, and then he passes sometimes
rather suddenly into q condition of de-
preston, during which he is sluggish,
dull, looking differently, dressing diff
fently, eating differently, fearful, un-
reliant 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 a few
weeks or months. and he gradually
gets morbidly elevated. You ind he is
passing through every minute mental
phase and hnbit he did at first; depres.
sion follows as before, and then sanity;
ing, Of intellect, Of violation and nutri-
ton goes on, circle after circle, till the
patient dies. He lives three lives.-The

Danger Of Cosmetics.

The use Of cosmetics, face powders
and rouscs cannot be too strongly coll
demned, writes Eloise Perdrix in the
Ladies' Home Journal. They stamp
the person using them as silly and vul.
gar in the eyes of all refined and
cultured people, and do not in even the
slightest degree enhance or beautify.
A good complexion needs no artificial
toning or hcightening, nature being the
cleverest Of all artists. A poor skin is
kept c!oggcd and its condition impover-
ished by the application of cosmetics
often. indeed, it is poisoned by the
harmful ingredients contained In them.
Arsenic and white lead are two of the
drugs most used in their preparation
and two Of the rankest poisons which
can introduced into the system. Med
zeal treatment for the identifying. pre-
serving and improving the complexion
should only be undertaken under the
direction Of ones family physician.
