DEATH OF DIRECTOR PULsKY.

The European papers a few days ago annou1ced the death of Pulsky, the whilom director or the National Gallery of Budapest. He became known on this side of the water in consequence of the deplorable mis- take he committed last year, in Italy, where he bought for the Hungarian museum an inferior sebastian del Piombo, for which he paid 135, 5,000 fraucs, instead of 2o,000 francs, for which it might easily have been ac- quired. It was this fragrant proof of lack Of judgment on Pulsky's part which led to the discovery that his mind was deranged, as, indeed, it had been for several years previously. The story which is told concerning the buying of the Sebastian del Picmbo is that Pulsky himself was not pres
 ent at the auction, but that he dele gated a French woman, countess, to buy it for him, and that it was she whose injudicious bidding raised the price of the picture to the exorbitant sum which she paid for it. However this may be, Pulsky brought his painting in triumph to Budapest, and the very next day he was placed in sanftarium for the insane, for it was clearly demonstrated that the picture was in wretched condition, and that, six months before the Scarpa sale, it's owner had offered to sell it for 10000 francs.-New York Commercial.

If the disorder is only a func- tional ore the liver is easily re- stored to it's normal condition. If the disorder has it's origin in the abuse or dissipation of the man it is not so easily con- trolled. Very few family doc- tors pay much attention to nervous troubles.
