Castles in the air." to indicate
dreaming projects, is an expression
which first occurs in the writings Of
Sidney. 1t is believed, however, to be
much older than his time. In the form
fscastles in Spain" it is found in the
French literature, while the Latins had
an expression castles in Asia, y and the
Hindoos rendered it as "castles in the
moon.

According to Mulhall, leprosy is far
more prevalent in Europe than most
people suppose. He says that there are
now 5000 lepers in Portugal, 1,770 in
Norway, 5000 in Russia and about
1900 all told in other European coun-
tries. In India there are 131, 900 and in
Canton, China, not less than 10000.
He does not give figures for other coun-
tries and islands, but it is estimated
that the leper population of the world
is but little, if any, short of 1000, 600.
