why Monarchs Were Insane.

Pathologists have often pointed out
the fact that physical and mental Ell
%ervation are apt to go hand in hand,
and the intellectual degeneracy of eti-
quette monarchs may have a good deal
to do with the Sybaritism of their pal
ace life.
The plebeian functions which media-
val sovereigns We're obliged to perform
by proxy included the adjustment Of
their gala gloves. They had funkies
to remove their cravats and warn their
nightshirts, unplait their pigtails and
tuck up their bedclothes around their
shoulders. In the morning courtiers
competed for the honor of holding
their washbasin. Peers of the realm
waited on Bonded knees to buckle their
shoes. If the inheritor Of a legitimate
throne lifted a spoon to break an egg,
lynx eyed lackeys anticipated his needs
with the agility of trained conjurers.
Like his food, his information on cur
rent topics was served ready dressed
and cooked, ill he turned into a masti-
eating machine and repeater Of con-
ventional neutrality-suspicious.

swe11s with swe1I Chests.

Il had occasion to examine two
brothers who had applied for policies
in u company the other day. said
the medical examiner of a life insur-
ance company. zone was So years
old and the other was SO. They are
both unmarried and are known about
town as pretty gay boys. Usually
there is considerable attached, to writ
ing policies for men who are known
as FOUNDERS but these two proved to
be perfect specimens of physical man
hood.
I was particularly impressed by
their chest developments. They both
had the same measurement and also
the anne expansion-from 80 to 43.
When | found that they had smoked
cigarettes from boyhood, 1 wondered
all the more at the four inch expan-
sion. Then they told me that when
they We're youngsters they used to
delight in seeing how long they could
hold their breath under water. Every
time they took a bath in the tub one
would take a deep breath, duck under,
and the other would time him with a
watch. A minute and a half, l be-
lieye, was the limit of their endurance.
They said it was all their mother could
do to get them out Of the bath and
drive them to bed.'-Philadelphia Rec
ord.

uia aumns.

They were newly married and were
calling upon one Of the friends of the
bride who had been particularly pleas
ant upon the occasion of their wedding.
The bridegroom, apropos Of nothing,
began to talk about %phrenology and
told how his wife had discovered two
very prominent bumps on the hack of
his head. He was proud of them. So
was she, and she passed him around
that the host and hostess might feel
the bumps and know Of their exist
ence. Then she explained:
MY book on phrenology saws that
they mean good memory and generos-
ity."
1t was evident that she was proud of
the facts, and SO was he. But the host,
being of an inquiring turn of mind,
wished to satisfy himself, so he got
down a chronological work from II
of his library shelves and after much
labor found the bumps on the chart.
Turning to the notes, he read, seriously
at first, then unsteadily. The bride be-
came suspicious, but she was game and
said:
Read it out LOUD. Please do!" And
the host read:
"These bumps are most frequently
found on cats and Monkeys"
Other topics consumed the remainder
of the visit, which was brief.-New
York Sun.

Did You Ever Drown a F1ye

Whatever other fate might befall It.
%naturalists agree that the common
house fly cannot be drowned and many
experiments have been made in rela-
ton thereto.
Included in such tests was the i'm
mersion of a fly in a tumbler of clear
cold water, with a piece of cardboard
to fit the glass and foated SO as to
keep the insect beneath the surface.
So little did the fly trouble about
such an obstacle that it kept near the
bottom of the glass. and there for Il
quarter of IN hour ran about as freely
as in the fresh air, while it at times
.crawled across the underside of the
pasteboard as on the ceiling of aroom.

to the surface. and there it remained
for another % minutes.
1t was then taken out and placed on
a sheet Of paper, looking to all appear
ance dead. Its next fate was to be
buried by being covered wits about
half a teaspoonful of fine salt.
AT the end of 10 minutes the saline
was shaken off, the fly having thus
been completely covered either by
water or by salt for G5 minutes.
Immediately upon its release the in

Kearney Cotton Mill to Close Down.

kearney Cotton Mill to Close Down.
Kearney, Neb, June 18.-It has been
decided by the owners to close the
Kearney cotton mill. For some time
past, particularly since the closing of
the Asiatic markets, oc%casioned by the
Chinese war, the mill has been oper-
ated at a loss. The Kearney mill was
a direct shipper of special grades of
cotton goods to China, and this market
has been entirely closed. The high
price of cotton has also worked against
the plant. Eastern investors hold
mortgage bonds for 100000 for money
borrowed to use as working capital.
The mortgage is in process of fore
closure and a decree is expected within
30 days.
