Blood Poison and insanity.

While the fullest credit should be
given to the staff of this important in
stitution 1.-THE State Institute of Pathol-
ogy), it is but fair to state that the
study of toxaemia in connection with
insanity is by no means a novelty, nor
is it the discovery of the enterprising
young gentlemen connected with that
establishment who have been credited
Herewith. Over a decade ago Solomon,
Regis and others recognized the toxic
origin of mental disease, while no less
than ten others, among them Herter
and Smith, have written extensively on
the subject. Perhaps most credit
should be given to DR.. Allan McLane
Hamilton, whose paper on "Autotoxis
as Cause of Insanity" was read before
the Medical Society Of London in MaJ
last, and noticed in your London letter
a short time subsequently. In this pa
per- which contained much original re-
search, the connection between toxae-
mia and insanity was fully shown

Russian green cloth is smart for the

Holly berry wrsaths with rich, glossy
green leaves are economical and sty-

The revived fashion of trimming
skirts has brought into play velvet rib
bon in broader widths than we have
been seeing the last few seasons.
Blouse sleeves, with a certain ele-
gance Of shape, are chosen for waists,
which are designed to replace cloth
waists through the warm weather.
Pale yellow organizes with punches
OF purple flowers are considered most
exclusive. They are made up over yell
low silk and profusely trimmed with
little ruffies.
Louis XIV. bows and paste buckles
are favored hat decorations. Red con-

Electric Bicycle Light.

A st. Louis inventor has patented a
device by means of which a bicycle
rider may furnish himself with an
electric headlight, the necessary cur
rent being generated by the revolution
of the wheels Of the machine. A gov
ernor is provided which keeps the cur
rent substantially uniform, so that the
light does not die out If the speed is
reduced, or blaze too brilliantly when
the speed Is increased. By throwing
the shaft that rotates the armature into
gear as darkness comes on, the wheel
man at once provides himself with
light; but of course he has to work for
1t, as it is his own muscles that form
the source Of the energy from which
the electric current is developed.

A YOUNG HEROINE,
SHE Saved Her Brothers Life at Cost OF
Her Own.


She lived in Placer county, Califor-
MIA, not far from where the pretty
town of Auburn now stands, for it
happened many years ago, in the early
SOS, and / suppose that few now re-
siding there have any recollections OF
the affair, says the San Francisco Call.
The family, consisting Of her father, a
miner; her mother and little broth
er, dwelt in small shanty erected un-
der cover Of a convenient ledge. The
shanty was a miserable structure Of
two rooms, but it held what many a
grander dwelling failed to contain-a
loving household. The mother lay sick
with the fever and Carmen, then girl
Of 70, performed the drudgery Of the
house. Her little brother, curly
headed romp of 5, was Garments great
responsibility. The father was away
from early morning until late at night
at his work and so the little hands Of
II found plenty to do. In common with
the custom of miners the father kept
store Of giant powder in the house,
which, in the present case, was con-
tanned in a sack placed in an old box
that stood by the foot of the bed where
lay the sick mother. The upper part
of the shanty, under the sloping board
roof, was utilized as storage place for
old dunnage and rubbish. One night
the father was absent In the mine on
night work. BY some means the shanty
took fire, probably from the cracked
and defective chimney. Carmen awoke
to find that the roof was afre and
sparks dropping down.
Sprlnging up, she loudly cried to
awaken her mother and Tommy, but
the little boy became frightened and
hid his head beneath the covers of his
bed. Carmen sprung to lift him from
his bed when she saw the shower OF
sparks falling upon the powder box.
Recognizing the awful danger, she at
tempted to leave the child for the mo-
ment and carry out the powder, but
in her excitement she caught her foot
in the overhanging bedclothes and fell
to the floor, breaking her thigh bone,
Unable to rise the brave girl crawled to
the box Of powder and, drawing herself
up, covered the box with her body. The
mother had by this time succeeded In
getting out of bed and outside the now
furiously burning shanty and managed
to take with her the little boy. The
cries Of Carmen, ooh, take Tommy
out, won't your turned for time the
mothers thought from her .daughter'I
danger. The fire had aroused some o!
the neighbors, who speedily ran to thu
burning shanty and lent what aid they
could. Carmen was discovered and re
moved. Her rescuers found her almosl
hidden beneath a mass Of burning Gin
ders, her back frightfully burned. Ten
der hands bore her to a neighborinl
shanty, where all that could be dom
to alleviate her suffering was eagerly
bestowed. But human aid came tot
late. The brave little spirit lingeret
until the following day and then de
parted for brighter land. 1t was no
known until after she recovered con
seriousness a short time before she diet
that she had broken her leg. Her las
words were: kiss, me, Tommy, dear
I've saved you, and I'm so happy"

ment. There were but three things for
him: his Bible, his sword and his
daughter. He had laid aside HIS sword,
for he was growing old; but the Bible
was always by him, and he loved to
interpret 1t in his own harsh fashion.
And then his daughter but she had
gone.
She was young and beautiful, pant
Ing for all that makes life sweet and
grateful-for love, triumph, for the
applause of thousands. She had resolv-
ed to be an actress and to have them
all. She was stifed in that ugly, square
house in Scotland. The dull unendine
moors overwhelmed her. The cold grey
stones of her home crushed out all her
life. She longed for the glare and gilt
ter OF some great city. So one day she
disappeared, and James Gordon was left
alone with his Bible.
He uttered no reproach, but his grim
mouth seemed to close more firmly,
while the lines grew deeper on his rug
ged face. The neighbors were disap-
pointed at his apathy They mention
ed his daughters name to him, in the
hope Of arousing some emotion or tor
rent OF abuse. But he merely half rose
from his chair and looked at them.
They were silent, and left him. So a
year passed away, and he began to grow
weary Of sky and moor. He sat all
day in his oaken chair, with his hand
on the Bible.
Meanwhile Ruth Gordon's name was
on everyone's lips in London. Her
beauty had brought her all she had
ever dreamed, more than she could ever
have hoped. 1t was the last night OF
the burlesque wherein she made her
self famous. The house was crowded,
and she excelled herself in every song
and dance. At the close OF the piece
the stage was covered with bouquets
from admirers-from men she knew and
men who wished to be known to her.
She stood amid a bank of flowers, and
bowed to the thunders Of applause. She
was queen, for that night at least.
Then, when the curtain had gone
down for the last time, she picked Up
one or two of the offerings and went
of to the dressing room. One she held
in her hand had attracted her by its
uncommon shape and condition. 1t was
a half-faded cross of white lilies. She
threw it CONTEMPORARY on her table,
and pressed the other-the gift Of a
young Earl-to her lips.
who dared send me that shabby
thing?" she said to her dresser and
then picked 1t up, from sheer curios-
ity, to see the name of the man who
had ventured to offer it. She dropped
it, and uttered a cry Of surprise and
pleasure, then picked it up again and
kissed it passionately. The label read:
ITO my daughter. Come home. l am
angry no more" Truly it was the hap
piest day of her life-a triumph and re-
Cancellation.
She left for Scotland that night. How
slowly the train crawled on through
the darkness! She could not sleep, and
she watched the lighted towns go by
one by one until the dawn. Then the

World,s Supply of Cotton.


According to the best sources OF in
formation, the worlds supply of cotton
in 1895 aggregated IS, 100000 bales, or
1880, 100000 pounds. OF this immense
crop 1O,5OOOOO bales were produced in
the United States; 100000 in India
and $4,000 in Egypt. The remaining
bales were produced in the various
parts of the globe. In different coun-
tries different standards of measure
ment obtain, and in no two countries
is the weight of bale of cotton exact
ly the same. The American bale aver
ages 450 pounds, the Indian bale 400
pounds, and the Egyptian bale III
pounds. Some idea Of the vast extent
of the worlds cotton area may be gath
cred from the fact that in the United
States alone 1t covers over 100000
acres. In 1880 the worlds total output
Of cotton aggregated only $4,000, 1000
pounds or eleven times less than in
1896. Within a single decade, however,
the product almost doubled, amounting
in 1910 to 1,192,OOO,0OO pounds. Since
then the worlds product has been as
follows: 1891, 100000 pounds in 1860,
4,O39, 100000 pounds in 1880, and $780,
100000 in 1895. From these figures
some idea of the vast Importance of the
cotton plant as factor in the worlds
growth and progress may be obtained.
