editary, then Ananias must have many
lineal descendants. OF all the vices not
punishable by law, lying is the most
prevalent The theory that drunkenness
is disease has long obtained in scien-
tifc circles. and now St. Louis doctor
expresses the opinion that lying, or the
inability to tell the truth, also comes
within the professional province OF the
physician. DR.. Welch would treat the
habtual liar much as he would the in
sane patient. The base of his trouble
is the nerves, says the doctor, and rest
and tonics, with good nursing, are re-
quired. Lying is hereditary, says the
doctor, and the best way to avoid be-
coming liars. 1t would seem, is to exer-
else some care in the choice Of parents
AS this is impossible in the present in
fant state Of scientific discovery, the
next best thing to do is to live near
some prevarication expert, and on the
appearance of the first symptoms OF the
dread disease rush to his office and re-
ceive timely atment.-Pittsburg
Daily Netos. There are few people in
Reynoldsville who have become such
professional liars that prevarication
sanitarium would do them no good.

to cease laughing from start to finish.
