HUNTING THE BALLOT.
A Field where Forger and Manipulation
Have Worked Successfully.

In no field of literature have the
forger and the manipulation worked
with greater vigor and success, says
the Atlantic Monthly. From Percy's
day to our own it has been thought
an innocent device to publish bit OF
ones own versifying, now and then, as
an "old ballad" or an ancient song"
often, too, late stall copy of a ballad,
getting into oral circulation, has been
innocently furnished to collectors as
traditional matter. Mere learning will
not guide an editor through these per-
pleXities. What is needed is, in adj
dition, a complete understanding of
the popular" genius, a sympathetic
recognition of the traits that charac-
terize oral literature wherever and in
whatever degree they exist. This fac
ulty, which even the folk has not re-
tanned, and which collectors living in
ballad-singirg and tale-telling times
have often failed to acquire, was vouch-
safed by nature herself to the late Prof.
Child. In reality kind of instinct, it
had been so cultivated by long and
loving study of the traditional itera
ture of all nations that it had become
wonderfully swift in its operations and
almost infallible. No forged or re-
touched piece could deceive him for
moment; he detected the slightest jar
in the genuine ballad tone. He speaks
in one place of certain writer's "who
would have been all the better histori-
ans for little reading of romances."
He was himself the better interpreter
of the poetry of art for this keen SYM
pathy with the poetry of nature.

The patient treated by the French
doctor at the Montpelier asylum was
a woman who suffered from lunacy in
an acute form. She combined the two
most dangerous qualities that a lunatic
may possess-keen intelligence, that
her mania only seemed to intensity,
and a marked inclination to do violence
in any form possible. The first treat
ment was partially successful. The eN-
pertinent was repeated, giving 20 in
iections of serum of five cubic CEN
timeters each, but covering n space of
81 hours. When the patient emerged
from heavy, dreamless sleep, it was
found that she was absolutely sane.
The cure of this woman, Mile. Felice
Languerre, was permanent.
Experiment has shown that few mi
crobes introduced into the blood of a
person live. Therefore the surviving
microbe must be of great strength and
power. To overcome its action the anti
toxin or serum must possess great
strength. Insanity has shown the in
sanity miCrobe to be the most danger
Gus of all microbes, because of it's re-
markable strength. This is probably
tho reason why it has never before sue.
cumbed to the attacks of all the forces
that medical science could bring to bear.
II the theory held by many prominent
physicians be true, that the germ Of in
sanity is in every brain, and that a sud-
den shock or emotional excitement
might cause any person to lose mental
equilibrium, then this discovery should
be of intense interest to all.-Chicago

Speak of an object of beauty and they
must throw out of their system "a thing
of beauty is a joy forever" like rash.
that It would be dangerous to suppress.
Should you mention any sight or sound
seen or heard q little way off they will
trip up your last words by reminding
you that distance lends enchantment
to the view." If they call at your house
but seldom they will infallibly assert
that their visits are like those Of the
angels sew and far between" if they
come often, that they return to you
like bad penny" Is the practice Of
quotation, then, to be ruthlessly sup.
pressed without pity, without excep-
ton? Certainly not. There are some
quotations which are not merely per-
missible but indispensable, and which
we feel we could no more do without in
writing and conversation than we could
get on without shillings and sixpences
in commerce.

THE BOSTON WOMAN.

Valued Socially In proportion to what
She Knows.
In Boston woman is valued socially in
proportion to what she knows and can
do weA-or, to put it correctly, what
she has the reputation of knowing and
doing well, says the Forum. If it could
be a pleasant thing anywhere for a
woman to grow old, it would be so I'M
Boston. In that city spinsters and
widows, if they are ambitious and even
tolerably healthy, never consider it too
late to find a vocation. They would
take up botany, china painting, sloyd
or political economy at 60 with re-
freshing independence of their age. I
have seen a pupil of 70 at one of the
prominent schools of oratory, her fell
low students, mostly in the teens, treat
ing her with beautiful comradeship,
instead of staring at her with sup
pressed smiles as if she were kind of
freak" They recognized only her
plucly defiance of Father Times limi-
tations by a larger measure of applause
when she recited her pieces than they
usually accorded to the younger mem
bers Of the class. A Boston man for
gives and may even forget woman's
advancing years if she is bright and in
teresting and can make him feel al
ways that he knows more than she does.

Burnt by Roentgen Rays.

A curious instance of the effects of
Roentgen rays on the skin is reported
in the Deutsche Medicintsche Woch-
enschrift. A 13-year-old boy was ex-
posed naked for As minutes to a very
powerful apparatus to have his picture
taken. A fortnight later a circular red
spot appeared on his abdomen above
the navel. II grew and broke out into
small itching blisters. After six weeks
the irritation ended, but the discolora-
ton had spread over the whole abdo-
men. The skin then scaled off, and after
awhile resumed its normal condition.
The process was precisely the same ms

ANTITOxIN SYSTEM.
Employed by French Physician In tn
Treatment of Insanity.

Employed by a French Physician in the
Treatment of Insanity.
A new cure for insanity has been
discovered. 1t consists in injecting into
the veins of the lunatic serum from
person who has just recovered from
madness. Prof. Wires, of the Mont
Pelier insane asylum, has actually cured
patient by this method.
1t has been an accepted fact in the
Misunderstanding world that the mi
crobe or germ of insanity really ex-
lists. 1t courses with the blood through
the human body, and places all nerve
cells in harmony with the madness that
fills the brain. To successfully combat
the influence of this microbe it is neces-
sary to inject q serum of antitoxin
which shall prove the deadly enemy of
the toxin or germ of lunacy.
To thoroughly understand the action
of the microbe which the serum from
the former maniac has succeeded in
overcoming, it must be understood that
the duty of an antitoxin is to prevent
the toxin or germ from making its
way through the cells of the human or
Runism.

Elk in Wyoming.

Thirty thousand elk are wintering in
the Jackson's Hole country of Wy
oming, according to the estimate of the
game warden, who says that in one
herd which he saw the other morning
there were $4,000 of them, stretching
over a distance of six miles. The sight,
he said, surpassed anything he had ever
seen and utterly amazed him. The elks'
trail over the snow was like flint ice,
he said, so hard had the snow been
packed down. The animals are seen
by thousands any morning, moving
along the Snake river from the Great
swamp to the eros Ventre hills, and at
night the walls of the calves straying
from their mothers may be heard.

CONTINUOUS FORCES.
Applied in the Making of a Cock which
Winds Itself.

While any theory of perpetual mo-
ton is an absurdity, in the sense that is
understood by the mechanism, that is,
the possibility of creating something
out of nothing, or of generating force
from nothing, there is, nevertheless, al
ways the possibility of commanding
forces which are practically continuous
in their action, thus giving a machine
which, subject to wear and tear of its
parts, is capable of indefinite duration
in its operation. An example of this
is shown in a clock whose pendulum de-
ponds for it's motion upon one or more
tubes of mercury, fitted with piston
rods. The temperature being variable,
it follows that the mercury will alter
nately rise and fall. The pistons arc
so connected with a reciprocal gearing
that one lever, operating on a ratchet
wheel, winds the wheel up, if the mer-
curry rises, while another lever, op-
Grating on the opposite side of the
wheel, likewise winds when the mer-
