fees Of the supposed-to-be unlucky
floor are occupied. Some of the older
sky-scrapers that are supposed to be
overcrowded with tenants have vacant
thirteenth-story rooms, but so far no
attempt has been made to overcome the
folly by lowering rents. When the
giant st. Paul building, now far above
its thirteenth story, is ready for occu-
pancy, the superintendent and others
connected with its management will
utilize the unlucky floor. At least this
is how the agent expects to get around
the hoodoo that men who seem to be
sound mentally attach TO the tricky ID.

A DEADLY DISEASE OF TO-DAY.
The Great Increase In the Number of
Cases of Paresis.

In connection with the cock-sure
statement of Mr.. IIowells that the
present race was never so healthy and
strong as now it is interesting to read
the following paragraph, written by
DR.. I. S. Clouston, superintendent OF
the Morningside asylum, Scotland,
says the Medical Record. He says:
zone terrible form of brain disease,
with mental symptoms, is certainly in
creasing. That malady may
be described as a breakdown of the
great center of mind and motion in the
brain; it always goes on from bad to
worse till it renders its victim utterly
helpless in mind and body and kills
him in few years. No cure and
scarcely any mitigation of this latter
day curse has yet been devised. 1t is a
disease of cities, of restless lives. of ac-
tive brains in their prime; sometimes
of dissipation and debauchery, of life
at high pressure commonly"
During the past year the asylums Of
Scotland received $50 new cases, those
of England l, 400 and those of Ireland
So. The asylum statistics of this coun-
try show an even greater number.
In single asylum of this state, for
eXample-that at Ogdensburg-there
were among the $50 admissions 81 cases
of general paresis. This would make
the proportion of general paresis over
4 per cent.
Among seven state asylums, to which
1912 patients were admitted in 1890,
there were &C cases of general paresis,
or little over per cent. If per cent.
be the general ratio for this disease in
the state of New York then the total
number of paretics among the 10000 in
sane would be about $40. As a matter
OF fact, the number is much greater,
because the proportion of this disease
is larger in the New York and Kings
county asylums than in those of the
state at large. But even if there We're
but 1900 cases of general paresis
among the 100, 900 insane of this coun-
try it would be an extraordinary evil
dence of the development of disease
which in the last century was certainly
not known, even If it did exist.

were 100 cigars in each box, making
10000 in all, and were valued at ten
cents each, so insured the lot for 81 900.
A few days ago the man came to me
and asked for the insurance money.

THE Thirteenth FLOOR. ,
A Dificu!ty Discovered in the Renting
of SkysCrapers.

The business and professional men
who contemplate hiring an Office in the
business end of the metropolis can, if
they are not supersttious, secure
quarters at comparatively low rental.
a few days ago rents on the thirteenth
floor of a recently built sky scraper
were reduced third. The cut was
forced by the dread with which some
folk of the class named regard the num-
Der 10. Other tall office buildings are
in the same predicament, and thic-
teenthfoor offices are said to be a drug
on the market. This is a new and un-
expected problem for landlord and
agent to solve, and if the IL hoodoo hits
all ihe high structures as hard as it has
hit uue on Nassau street, the architect
of the future will have to scratch the
thirteenth floor of his plans or put the
roof on ut the twelfth story. The agen,

rents on-third. This action has broken

VALENTINE KILLED LOVE.
A Farmer Disinherits HIS Daughter
because of n Comic One.


James Martin, a well-to-do farmer,
recently died, leaving will by which he
disinherited his only daughter, the re-
suit of a disagreement about q valentine
so years ago, says a Ballietville (Pa-)
special. 1t was few days before st.
Valentines day, so years ago, when the
daughter asked her father for a new
dress. He refused to buy it for her.
The girl took her fathers refusal much
to heart. On st. Valentines day Mr..
Martin received valentine addressed
to him in his daughters handw riting.
1t was a rough caricature, represent
ing miser counting and gloating over
his money. He at once took mis- daugh-
ter to task for what he considered an in
suit. She denied that she sent the car
toon. There lived in the neighborhood
another farmer who had treated niece
living with him brutally. Martins
daughter said that she and this girl had
purchased each n valentine and that she
Miss Martin) had bought one entitled
THE Honest Farmer" while the other
girl had purchased the caricatrre to
send to her harsh uncle. In addressing
the enevelopes the valentines, she said,
became mixed.
But in spite of explanations Mr.. Mar
tin would not believe his daughter, and
from that day he never spoke to her.
She soon married and lived on farm
adjoining. and, although the old man
was on the most familiar terms with
the husband and children, he never no
ticed her. He died the other day, leav.
ing an estate valued at $4,000.
BY his will he left his widow 100000
and to his son-in-law the remainder,
provided he survived his wife, the farm
er's own daughter. If the son-in-law
died first. then the money was to be d.
vided among his three children. To his
daughter Mr.. Martin bequeathed "a
package to be found in his trunk, tied
with n green ribbon and sealed with
green wax" When this was opened it
was found to be the unfortunate valen-
tine that had caused the estrangement
of the farmer from his daughter half
century ago.-N. Y. Press.

RlPENiNG OF WINE.
How the Juice Of the Grape Is Treate
In Switzerland.

How the juice OF the Grape Is Treated
In Switzerland.
The wine in Switzerland is left in the
casks till the following spring. and it
is here that fermentation takes place
and the mout is converted into wine,
says the Cornhill Magazine. The
change begins almost Immediately;
the liquid becomes turbid, carbolic
acid gas is evolved, scum is thrown
up on the surface and the temperature
rises. A climax is reached; the inten-
sity of the fermentation diminishes,
subsidies; the scum settles as a Shiny
deposit at the bottom of the cask and
a clear yellow liquid is left above. The
grape sugar has almost entirely disap-
peared, corresponding amount of al
cohol has taken its place, and the sweet
taste of the mout has given place to the
characteristic vinous flavor of the
wine.
In the early stages of fermentation
enormous quantities of carbonic acid
gas are given off, and huge fires are
made in the cellars to drive it away
But at the time | write of October,
1888, when the vintage was the finest
of the century, when barrels to hold
mout could not be purchased for love
or money, when every cellar on the
lake from Geneva to Villeneuve was
packed with casks of mout, so great
was the amount of carbonic acid gas
in the air that, in spite of every precau-
ton, several deaths from suffocation
took place among the workers. In the
spring the wine is drawn off clear into
other barrels, then bottled: win ordin-
aire is not bottled at all, but simply
drawn from the wood. This is the wine
sold at all the little wineshops with
which Switzerland abounds. 1t is
drawn off into quaint little glass de-
canters containing half liter each,
and so served to the unhurrying Swiss,
who drink it round little tables under
the trees on the sunny pathways or over
wooden benches inside the red-cur-
tanned wineshops.
