from relatives or friends. for although
the state furnishes regulation gar
meuts, so that no patient will be in
need, yet the psychic effect OF wearing
clothes made at home or clothes that
differ in color or makeup from the
regulation variety, is very beneficial.
In this connection, it is pertinent to
remark that every privilege is extended
TO patients to correspond with their
friends, though letters must, for obvi-
Gus reasons, pass the inspection of the
superintendent. It is rare that one is
intercepted either coming or going.
BED FOR VIOLENT PATIENTS.
What do you call this object? was
asked as we again reach the office.
Attention had been called to the model
of an iron bed with a half-cylinder of
wire network underneath.
That" replies the superintendent,
lis an invention by one of our en-
ployees. 1t is the most scientific bed
made for cases of violent hvsteria
After the patient is laid on it the half
cylinder is slid round on top-so; and
you perceive that while there is quite
enough room to turn round, the patient
IS forced to lie down, and the cover be-
ing without angles, there is no possible
chance of hurting himself. They are
bound to supplant the awkward con-
trivances now in use all over the world.

Too Bad!

The makers of Pride of Japan tree tea)
have advertised that Thos. Price, analytical
chemist of San Francisco, and Prof. 7. 7.
Kingsbury of the University of Utah, have
given them certificates that the above brand
OF tea is perfectly pure.
The deduction drawn from this ANALYSIS is,
that the Pride of Japan tea which you buy in
the stores is perfectly pure.
While it is quite possible to buy pure tea
like Settings Bsst and pack it in Pride of
Japan packages, and submit it to chemists for
analysis; still we assert that the Pride of Iaps
tea sold in this market is artifcially colored
with coloring matter.
We don't know how these endorsements
were secured; but it is pity that the names
of such eminent authorities should be used to
back up statements made in the advertisements
of Pride of Japan.
Settings Best tea is not only guaranteed
pure, but it is such tea as you would drink
yourself if you knew all about it,
Besides it is oney-back, and that is backing
enough in the long run.

when we reached them. and the super
intendent hesitated. 1--WE encourage
patients to go to bed" said he. "as
soon as the meal is over" The at
tendant treasured us, however, and
we entered.
If stolidity expresses the habitual
miea of male patients, then volatility
is the word describing the mien of fe-
male; but this distinction also holds in
the main, outside the asylum; save
that sanity brightens stolidity into
earnestness, and tones down volatility
to versatility.
The rooms. the beds, the corridors
showed the same seruoulous neatness
and order. The patients instantly obey
the wishes of the matron or her at
tendants and there seems to be no
friction In the dining room the dishes
were being cleared away and two pa
tients We're at the sink washing them.
Every patient has a box or alcove in
the storeroom for her clothes. DR..

patients occupy the four floors of the
north wing and the female, the four
floors of the south wing. The electric
light was turned on and every room
was filled with a mellow radiance BY
the time we reached the wards. the
long corridors, where patients usually
spend their time, were deserted, and
the guide led us to the respective dim
ing rooms.
SUPERINTENDENTS SYSTEM.
DR.. Hardy's regime of discipline is
summed up in the rules, attendants
must attend and Patients must be
classified" In accordance with the lat
ter rule. we found a different sort of
men sitting down to each table. On
the first floor were the convalescents
They. were eating their supper with
just that half-awhward dignity and
sobriety which one might expect to see
in lot of day laborers restrained by
Sunday clothes. On the fourth floor
are the senileS, the old, the weak, the
palsied. 1t is sight that goes to ones
heart, not that they are here for when
one takes into account the almost ideal
environments, one is led to believe that
this home is for them a.. asylum in
deed: but that besides being old, they
should also be demented. Their mind
powers. have simply worn out before
their bodies, and there is usually little
hope for them in any other direction
than the grave.
On the way down the eastern tower
the superintendent pointed out two re-

responding respectively to the male
and female quarters. Two sides of each
court are of high wooden trellis-worl1
painted green, the other two sides be-
ing the main building itself.

We keep five of them ready for emery

Then you have violent cases occa-
sionally?"
TT is not always as fair weather as
we have had today"
'Oh, yes, a number of our patients
have periodical attacks requiring such
treatment. Then, too, patients came
to US in raving condition, for whom
nothing can be done, until by enforced
quietness. the nervous system is restor-
ed to something of its habitual equi-
ibrium. Such was the case with Miss

At this point the doctor was called to
one of the wards. Before going he
handed a typewriter copy of his re-

general interest:

HE ROBBED THE DOGS.
What the Sportsman With the New
Gun Got Out of the Lunch Basket.

What the Sportsman With the New
Gun Got Out of the Lunch Basket
Two men went hunting. One was a
sportsman; the other had a new gun
and a newer shooting Jacket They
had walked through the stubble from
early morning with fair success. About
II o'clock the man with the new shoot
ing jacket felt the monotony of it, and
he wanted a drink. He left the sports
man and the dogs and went back to
the wagon About an hour afterward
the sportsman called in his dogs and
took them back to the wagon to feed
them.
At the wagon the man with the new
shooting jacket sat on the ground with
the lunch basket between his knees; a
bottle of beer in one hand, a hard bis
cult in the other.
Great gun wads." exclaimed the
sportsman. DO you know what you're
doing? You're eating the dog bis
cult
'1The what?'' shouted the other, with
lively disgust.
1.-The dog biscuit! You're robbing the
dogs
FOR heavens sake. you don't tell me
those biscuits are made of dog!" said
the biscuit eater, piteously.
Not exactly answered the other.
But. what 1 want to know is, what
are the dogs going to eat?"
'They can have my share Of the
lunch" said the ras. in the new jack
et i've lost my appetite"
Now, as a matter of fact, the man
who had eaten the dog biscuit hadn't
Jared so badly, for dog biscuits, while
they are rather hard, are nourishing,
being made of clean scraps of meat
boiled until all the fat is out of them
But, you see, he had robbed the dogs
of their luncheon.

including the advancement of the

altogether amounted to an outlay of
$500. His ideas seemed SO reasonable

Of course the Waldorf Astoria is do
ing rushing business as a place of
amusement, and while a great many
of the lectures, readings and inusicales
that are given there are undoubtedly
worthy of all respect, nevertheless there
is a certain superstition existing in the
minds of the ignorant and the credu-
lous which invests with a halo any
thing, no matter what it may be- that
occurs there.
A few years ago, when the Waldorf
was beginning to acquire the extraor-
binary reputation that has since made
it so profitable, a foreign gentleman of
genuine distinction in scholarship
asked my advice concerning some read
ing which he desired to give from the
modern French authors. Have you a
fur-lined overcoat,' 1 inquired, as soon
as he had finished speaking.
Yes, l have a very fine one, but
what has that to do with it?" he re-
joined
My good friend" continued, almost
affectionately, you have come to me
for advice and am trying to help
you. Remember that your are about
to address yourself to the most bril-
liant and highly cultivated men and
women in New York society. Therefore
do not fail to place your fur-lined
overcOat over the back of a chair so
that the lining may be seen by all. Ma
ture has been bounteous 10 you in the
matter of fine, large beard. The
overcoat and the Waldorf-for, of
course, you will not dream of reading
anywhere else-will do the rest
l am happy to say that this gentle
man was distinctly successful in his
readings, although he is a scholar of
high ability.

At a general meeting of the Cotton
Manufacturers Association at Fall River,
Mass, yesterday, it was voted uuAui-
mously to reduce wages in all the mills
of the city, the amount and time of the
reduction being left to "a committee
which for some time has had charge OF
the matter. 1t IL understood that the
cut will amount to not less than 10 per
cent, and that it will go into effect Jan.
1st. The cut will effect $4,000 operatives
in that city, who are paid an aggregate
weekly wage of $4,000
