Events pass SO quickly that 1t may
be necessary to tell some that Jane
Cakebread holds the record of appear
ances before metropolitan magistrates
on charges of drunkenness and disor-
derby conduct. Her total appearances
were nearly 800, and she was never out
or prison for more than a day or SO at
time for about fifteen years. Lady
Henry Somerset very kindly took her
IN hand and put her in one of her
homes at Reigate but one day Jane
wandered beyond her boundary, found
public house, and fell She never
took a great quantity of drink; but a
few glasses had their effect, and the
sight of policeman in uniform put
her on her mettle, She always gave
her age as 81. and was proud of her
memory of titled and other people she
had known. But now her memory is
railing; her decisions as to being heir

| hopelessly severed
Nostalgia, or inconsistencies, Is merely
form of melancholia. AS In all the in
sanities, more than one factor usually
| acts as a cause-hence the necessity for
knowing the heredity and antecedents
of the patient. The enforced absence
from home may simply act as an excit-
Ing cause; there may be far deeper
seated causes, such as grave constitu-
tional defects, that act as the real basis
for the disease. This is especially true
in cases in which the reason is perma-
nently lost or life itself sacrificed. Some
races, or peoples, are supposed to be es-
pecially liable to this disease: the in
habitants of mountainous countries.
for instance, are said to suffer unduly
Hence the Swiss are said to furnish
many examples. So also rustics are
more prone to suffer than the inhabit-
ants of towns.
The observation of nostalgia among
soldiers is by no means new or recent.
Baron Larrey, the eminent military
surgeon of the Napoleonic wars, wrote
on this subject in his surgical memoirs.
In our own country observations were
made in the late Civil War Calhoun
wrote on nostalgia as a disease of field
service, and letters noted this affection
as among the evils of youthful enlist
ments.
IT is a remarkable fact that the some
what extensive literature of nostalgia
is almost entirely French. Many mono
graphs have been written in that Ian
guage on this subject. The American,
English and even German literature is
comparatively meager. This will seem
to be a proof to some readers that the
French have more Of the NAL du pays"
than other nations have-just as they
are said to have more of the other psy-
chooses But to our mind it is rather an
indication that they have greater liter

been driven out Of the forest and the
drivers had to go In deeper and scare
out the timid ones.
The sport now was not so exciting,
but there was just as much fun in it.
1t was more of a competition to see
who would kill the most kangaroos.
Each hunter had dragged his game
into something of heap, 80 that all
could see his prowess.
Late in the day there was nothing
to shoot at but stragglers. The driv-
ers had secured the country and even
gone after those that managed to get
through the lines. BY evening I don't
believe there were a dozen kangaroos
left In the district that we had shot
over
When the drivers came up each
shooter gathered his trophies Of the
battue and tally was kept Of the
number each had slain. Usually there
is a sweepstake on the result of the

day in the history of the country. Us
ually when about 800 are killed it is
considered a pretty good days work,
and when over a thousand are put to
death it is almost q national event. So
you can imagine how we felt when we
counted the results # the day.
And what a glorious days shooting
1t was.
In the whole realm of sport there are
probably few pastimes that offer so
wide a field for the perfect gratifica-
ton of ones sporting instincts as a
kangaroo drive" conducted under
we'll appointed auspices. OF course
there is not the same element of dan
ger in confronting the long legged dem
izen of the Australian forest as there
is in following the trail Of a grizzly;
but the fun is faster and more furious
and the exciting incidents more con-
slant than is the casey ordinarily, in
the pursuit of other game.
