INSANITY AND CRIME.
Both Classes Are in Similar Patho
 logical State.

lDhlIal AlAl0-
 Such briefly is the Fr&nkenstein, which the modern science of criminal Rnthropology cvokcs; an unbalanced bcing, a pathological subject, whose Hines. takes form which, hurtful to society, is defined as crime. For the facts collected by I.ombroso place be- yond all doubt the intimate connec- ton between crime and mental de- engagements which has So long been suspected to exist, Nladmen and criminals belong 10 the same family; pot in the sense of the vulgar and un- thinking expression that all criminals are mad, though everyday experience in the police courts puts il beyond doubt that many ire actually de- ranged, but in the sense that both classes are in similar pathological state, which manifests itself on the one hand in lunacy, on the other m crime. This position Is rendered still stronger by the revelations ef gcnea- logical statistics, which reveal the he redity through long generations of criminal tendencies, as they do of in- sanity, and alterations of criminals and madmen, In the same or success sivc generations.
 Lombroso divides criminals into two great classes, the original or born delinquent, and the fortuitous ot- fender, a man who becomes criminal through outward infuenoes.-Helen limmern, n Popular Science Month N

PSYCHIC PECULIARITIES.
Inordinate Vanity Often the Primary
 Cause of Terrible Crimes.

Intimately connected with the physical conditions of the criminal are lis psychic pcculiaritics These consist chiefly in great instability ol character, coupled with overwhelm. ing development of some passion and the atr0Phy of some others. The criminal acts from impulse, although he often displays, as madmen do, a low cunning in finding means 10 carry out his impulse. lleis intensely vain prlding himself on the number of crimes he has committed He.is fur. ther devoid of all remorse, fond oi boasting of his evil deeds and of de scribing thsm in detail. Thus Lom- broso gives the reproduction of a pho tograph, in which three murderers who had assassinated one of their number caused themselves to be rep resented in the very act of commit ting their deadly deed, photograph taken for the benefit of their less for in the invisible.
 This inordinate vanity is often iD itself the primary cause of terrible crimes, especially in young men whc have just attained puberty, an age ob- served to be especially fruitful in crimes of violence. The critical character of this period, even in we'll balanced minds. isabundantly known, little wonder, then, if it proves fatal to those whose constitutions urgo them to extremes. It is noticed also that the criminal needs 10 lead life full of noise. The necessity of orgies entallcd by the irregularities of his feelings is often the moving cause of some act of violence, such as rob. aery and assassination, calculated to procure the means of indulgence.- Helen Zimmern, in Popular Science Monthly.

A POOR SHAVE.
# Caused tks Separation of George ane
 His Sweetheart.

HIS oNSOlASnAt-
 The course of true love seemed to be running along smoothly for once. As usual, however, there was trouble.
 The young woman in the case had been visiting in Chicago and enjoying herself immensely. The bnsy streets and the high buildings, the lake ana the parks, were objects of unceasihs interest.
 To be sure, she Is loyal to her na- tive city and insists that St. Louls possesses attractions of equal merit. She thinks that all our swing bridges, iackknife bridgec and lift bridges are more than equalod by the biz bridge.
 Our busy streets, throngsd with hurrying crowds, big truck wagons, h;cvcles, motorcycles, automatic pianos, etc., have not the charm Tor her of the thoroughfares in her own pastoral town.
 But nevertheless she has been en- towing her visit. This has been due in rart 10 the attentions which have been paid her by George. He was one of the first to become acquainted with her upon her arrival in this city, ana he has been faithful in his attentions 10 her.
 One evening they were sitting close together, and She said 10 him: "l ou have a bunny shave"
 George was ho:rifcd, but he man aged 10 say that Ec had shaved him self-that he always shaved himself.
 He said that t was a matter of principle with him. His grandfather lad always shaved himself, his father had always shaved himself, and al- though he stood ready 10 sacrifice any other habit A her request, he felt he must live up to family traditions.
 Tt salso a matter of principle with me" she said, possionatcly. My fa- thcr and three brothers keep a barber shop in St. Lotus, and l will never love a man who slaves himself, So go and Deyrr come i0 rae me again,

The Retort That Cut the Lawyer Pretty
 Badly

An amusing incident occurred ID one of the courtrooms at the court house. A case was on trial involving the right of the defendant 10 erect 3 fence between his property and that of the plaintiff. The defendant claimed that he wanted 10 build this fence 10 keep his chickens out of his neighbor's yard; and the plaintiff claimed that the fence would mar the beauty of his place.
 There were excellent lawyers or both sides and the case was being stubbornly contested. It had already consumed nearly all the day when the wife of the plaintiff was placed on the stand. The following examination was then conducted by the defend ants lawyer:
 II understand you claim that yor have a very pretty place and that 1t h kept neat and clean? Is that so?"

A YOUNG REPLACEMENT.
Prays That Uncle Sam May "Lick Thoee
 Spaniards !"

Col Richard Johnson has young grandson who has .akcn great interest in the war question. His mother ire quently cautions him against show ing cruel spirit, but his grandfather, who is somewhat belhgereni himself, says nothing. The other day-it was Sunday-the youmgster was extreme- ly warlike, boasting that he would kill off every Spaniard he could meet in q day. His mother overheard some of his talk and said:
 Now, son, all such talk is wicked, and l want you to ro right into your bedroom and ask Gcl to forgive you for all your naughty thoughts"
 The little fellow did as his mother bade him, and throuah a chink in the door she could hear him utter this prayer:
 ''Dear Lord, you know that ladies don't fight My mamma is lady. With men it's different, remember when coal wagon man once swore at mamma and papa moppcd the side walk with him. 1 want 10 bo like that when l get big.

SOMETHING JUST AS GOOD.
Vow u hAious Man Gave Up His Two Cups
of BreakfAst Coffee.

Vow u hAious Man Gave Up His Two Cups
of Breakfast Coffee.
An east end man was advised some
time ago not to drink coffee. His doctor
told him it helped to make his liver tor
pid and his liver was doing it's best to
render life miserable for himself and all
the rest Of tho family.
But, no, he couldn't give up his two
cups at breakfast time He couldn't
make tho sacrifice Nothing could take
tho place of the delicious Java and
Mocha mixed that he had learned to
love.
Ono day his wife suggested in mild
way that he might be just as we'll sat
istied with ono of the brands Of imita-
ton coffee He almost frothod at the
mouth.
THAT internal stuff he cried.
mot much. The very first Rulp would
settle me. I'd like to see anybody try to
fool mo with counterfeit of that sort. "
He didn't notice tat his wife quietly
smiled. But, strange to say, from that
time on he grew better. His bilious
tendency was greatly lessened. He felt
like u new man.
One day he met the doctor.
Hello. docv' ho cried. I'm getting
better in spite Of you -"
"Givon up coffee, have your" queried
the smiling doctor.
"Given mp coifee9 Not much Coffee's
oil right.
A few weeks later he met the man
from whom 10 orders his groceries,
"Hellol" quoth the grocer. How
well you are lookingr'
Eyes" said tho convalescent, "1'm
feeling u great deal better. /"
"By the way said the grocer, "you
seem to like that substitute I've been
sending you"
"What substituted"
why, that substitute for coffee. :"
And he named one OF the numerous i'm
itatioas of the fragrant berry.
Never had cup of it in the house, "
said the bilious man emphatically.
That's funny" said the grocer. ~
haven't sold your folks pound Of gen
uine coffee i'll the last three months. .
The bilious man didn't say anything
further, but his thoughts were busy.
The next morning he looked at his cup
a little suspiciously, but he drank il
without tremor. Perhaps he fancied
he detected the difference; perhaps not.
Anyway, his wife still fondly imagines
he doesn't know Of the deception. -
