SHYNESS IS SERIOUS.
MEDICAL EXPERTS SAY ITS A sYMP-
 TOM OF MELANCHOLY.

It Takes Various Forms but Is Invariably
 Forerunner of Dementia-A Disease
 That should He Carefully Treated Itl
 Time-Afgeets Men IS Well as Women.
 At last it has been discovered that the reason the girl who seems exceedingly shy acts i'll the fashion she does Is that she is demented
 This is the result of extensive investi- gation by insanity experts on both sides of the water. Exceptional bashfulness, as it is called, Is really shyness. It is morbid condition of the mind, q certain sort of dementia.
 Often is the expression heard that person Is painfully shy. Yet in such an instance no doubt has been raised as to tho mental condition of the object of the remark Nevertheless. it is far more than probable that the individual refer red to was suffering from insanity just as much if not more, than many per sons who are living out a tortured exist enee within the walls of q madhouse.
 It is a well known fact that one of the most notable symptoms of insanity is that which causes the person afflicted to shun the company of others Loneli ness is an incentive to insanity. Con- finement in a solitary cell in prison often breeds madness It is altogether an unnatural mental condition which impels a person to avoid the society of humanity. No one whose condition is normal ever consents to such an exist enee
 Just how the insanity expert looks at shyness is shown by the following state- ment, made by Dr. G. ". Kunz of New York, whose wide experience makes his opinion well worth considering;
 s'Shyness is as much disease as scar let fever Itis recognized as q symptom of dementia or melaneholia, just as an extremely strong willod person. CT oi.5 who is what is termed unusually self assertive, is regarded by physicians as q possible subject for acute paresis.
 ''This shyness takes various forms, such as sudden feeling of faintness and weakness on looking down from any extreme height. It is present when q woman persists in looking under the bed before retiring. although she knows full we'll that there is no man there. l know of one case of woman who, when she turns out tho gas, invariably lights a match to see if she has turned it completely of. and nine times out z ten she lights another match to see if she threw the first match into the coal scuttle or fireplace. That is another form of what may he termed shyness.
 ''This shynoss is due to a variety of causes. It is very often the case that a system which is run down leads to this condition of mind. The continual think ing upon any subject, or what IS termed brooding oyor n certain thing, leads te this. If not checked ill time, melan- eholia results
 This shyness is as common to me1

 while tn northern boundary is the edge of the Had. Altogether tho reserve is about 200Nmiles long by 50 wide. At i present elehant herds abound within the district. --New York Tribune.

Ex-Cabinet Minister Baihaut, recent lv liberated at the conclusion of the term of imprisonment for which he was sentenced for fraud and corruption, of which he had while minister of public works rendered himself guilty in con neotion with the defunct Panama con- pany, has, to the astonishment of every body, just been rearrested. It appears that he is still liable to the government to the extent of 891, 900 francs for fines, costs and legal expenses. The courts re- gently decided that the unfortunate man, who is completely ruined, should either pay this sum at once or be i'm prisoned for another year. Naturally he chose the latter. and has now the con solation of knowing that every minute spent in the penitentiary is wiping of, roughly speaking, about 3 cents of his debt to tho state.

the defendants at the original hearing
in the case, all of which made Judge
