William NJ. Chase, the distinguished
painter, who has lately located in Chi

ers America has produced. He has not
only added his own works to the num-
Der of American paintings, but he has
labored many ye@ys for the advance

more than twelve years he was the
president of the Society of American
Artists, and he has been a leader in
the National Academy. Some time
ago Mr.. Chase closed his beautiful
studio in West Tenth street, New
York, which had been for many years
a noted show place of that city Much
of his time has been devoted to the
instruction of students. After he gave
up his studio in New York he was en-

BUDDING MEN AND WOMEN.
The Period When Boys and Girls Pine
for "a Larger Liberty.


On "The Passing of Childhood" the
Womaus Home Companion says:
"Baby learns that he can walk, that he
can reach things, that he can open and
close doors, that he can select from
many articles before him the particu-
lar one he wants, and so soon as he
is conscious of his ability to act for
himself he does It. But birthdays
come and go, and John is 13 and alive
in every nerve and fiber. with the full
pulsed life of the American tempera-
ment. He is ambitious and seeks
ideals and models from the great
world outside the walls of home, and
he talks excitedly of what other boys
do and finds precedent for the indi-
vidual liberty he is beginning to pant
and chafe after. Mary, with the first
luster of life yet fresh on her brow,
has shed infantile docility like a gar
ment and has haunting visions of the
joys of independence. 1t all seems
sudden to the parent, and it is not
quite pleasant. There is a pretty sem
timent in favor Of prolonging baby
hood, and the world is brutal and ugly,
and innocence is precious. Besides,
the instant our fledgelings are out Of
our sight untold anxieties begin for
us. We are inclined to put off the
evil day. This is the way sentiment
can make us selfish and fears for the
future make us unjust. We have 10
right to choose what is easy for our
selves, however. rather than what is
best for our children. 1t is the grow
ing manhood or womanhood in them
that begins to assert itself and claim
recognition. The wings meant for
wide flight ere long are rapidly I'M
folding, and tho courage soon TO be
essential is manifesting itself in the
feeling of pride and dignity which
makes our boy long to go and come as
he pleases and our girl to make her
own engagements and decide upon her
own affairs. This looks alarming, but,
after all, it is no great matter for
what the children really crave now is
liberty to exercise their own judg-
ment. 1t would be most injudicious 20

high spirits begin to pull upon them.
Liberty is to be retarded only for
year or so at the most, and for every
restraint imposed there will be cor
responding excess. 1t is well known
that some of the widest youths, the
friskiest young women, were kept
down to a strict regimen as long as
parental oversight lasted. They came
to regard restraint, even when kindly
meant, as an evil, to like their own
way just for its own sake. and the re-
suit is anything but pleasant when
young persons with unframed wills
and judgment are turned loose upon
the community. If they are not will
full, they are weak, and, accustomed to
yield to stronger minds, they become
the prey of INSCRIPTIONS leaders"

A French scientist, NJ Liebault, has
probably had more experience and has
done more to establish the claims Of
hypnotism than any modern physi-
clan. According to him, the dangers
of hypnotism are nonresident if it
be employed by fit and proper persons
who, whether to themselves or others,
suggest only what is in harmony with
the physiological functions of the or
ganism; otherwise the dangers are
obvious. In itself the induced sleep
like ordinary sleep, is a condition
which tends to the equilibrium of nerve
forces and of the organic movements
which those forces excite. The special
qualities required for the production
of the hypnotic sleep are self-conf-
dence, assurance of success and a per-
suasive manner on the part of hyp-
notizer; on the part of the subject, the
wish to be hypnotized, confidence in
the hypnotizer and free consent to the
imposition of his suggestion.

Degenerate Families.

There is a paper on 1.-THE Causes OF
Poverty" by the late Francis A. Wal
ker in the December Century. Gen.
Walker says: The true predominant
causes of pauperism, as of crime,
have been strikingly painfully brought
out in tracing the history of a few
families. Three cases will suffice. The
reader remembers the investigation of
the Jukes family in New York state.
Mr.. Dugdale estimated that the men,
bers of this family. descendants of one
worthless woman or intermarried
with her descendants, have in seventy
five years cost the state, as criminals
and paupers, a million and a quarter
of dollars. The history of a Kentucky
family founded in 1890 has been traced
to include the character and conduct
of a host of its members by descent
or by sexual alliance. legitimate or IL
legitimate. Among these have been
121 prostitutes. Thieving and beggary
have made up the lives of most of the
remainder. Those who try to do some
thing better for themselves prove I'M
able to perform hard labor or to en-
dure severe weather. They break down
early and go easily to the poor house
or the hospital. From Berlin we have
the history of another criminal and
pauper family, the descendants of two
sisters who lived in the last century.
The enumerated posterity number
S34. OF these the history of 7O9 has
been traced with tolerable accuracy.
They embrace LOG illegitimate children,
164 prostitutes, IL pimps, 142 beggars,
GA inmates of poorhouses and rs who
have been guilty of serious crimes.
Still other instructive cases are given,
in one of which nearly all the inmates
of county poorhouse have been
found to be related in blood.

In teaching physiology. would it not
be worth very much more to know 4
few facts about dress, diet, exercise,
rest, sleep, good and bad air, than to
number and name all the bones, or
name and classify all the muscles
The bones will all keep their places
and grow just as rapidly and firmly,
whether numbered or unnumbered;
but both mind and body will fare bet
ter if the lungs are not fed on bad
air. So the muscles will expand and
contract and develop and strengthen,
whether counted and classified or not;
but they and the whole system may
slacken or totally stop their action il
the stomach is supplied with unwhole-
some food. Let the study, therefore,
be directed at first to parts of the sys-
tenn under control, and afterward, If
there be time, to the parts not under

Maurice Despres, an electrical en-
gineer of Cordova, Spain, reports a re-
markable shower of electrified rain
which he recently witnessed. The day
had been warm and MINDLESS, and
about 8 in the evening the sun was
overcast with dense clouds, lowering to
the horizon. Soon after dark there was
a flash of lightning, and two minutes
later great drops of rain fell, which
cracked family on touching the
ground. From each of them sparks
darted toward the walls, trees and soil
they fell upon. The phenomenon last
ed several seconds, and apparently
ceased when the air between cloud and
earth became saturated with moisture.

Germany's foolish hostility to Eng
land, as voiced through her monarch,
naturally gives offense to Austrian and
Italian statesmen. and to that extent
weakens the tie between the three
nations. Thus far the net result of
the kaiser's freaks in his efforts to
isolate England has been the creation
of a distrust toward himself among
his friends which may, if his FRANKS
are persisted in, isolate Germany.

The college boy who wins the prize
for the best essays or the best grafton,
or who graduates with the highest
honors, is not in it today with the boy
who kicks a goal from the field Or
gets around the end for a touchdown.
The brilliant student remains in OBJ
security. The husky hero of the grid
iron sees his picture in the papers, and
reads with avidity column after col
umn of fulsome rot about his feats on
the football field. But the student
still has an advantage over the ath-
lete. In his maturer years he is much
more likely to see his portrait among
the list of those who have achieved
greatness in the great battle of life.

A new use for onions has been dis
covered. Recently bloodhounds were
turned loose upon the trail of some
bank burglars in Indiana. The man
hunt, however lasted only a few min
utes. Suddenly the leading dog began
bowling dismally and refused to go
farther and 1t was impossible to con-
tinue the chase. A pIis ner now in jail
at Ligonier has turned states evidence
and given the police all the facts con-
corning the burglary and the subse-
quent escape of the men. He says the
bloodhounds were thrown off the scent
without any trouble by rubbing an
onion on the shoes worn by the
burglars. He says that no bloodhounds
can be induced to follow an onion
trail. Dogs are a good deal like peo-
pie, after all.
