THE RAGE FOR RISK.


 With the increase of such popular amusements as are afforded by 'Ioop- the loop'' contrivances. evolutions on parachutes, animal show exhibitions, and yet newer and more ingenious ar- engagements for catering to the 'srage for risk" comes the demand from another section of the public, where more temperate and saner ideas pre- vail, that something shall be done by legislation. if necessary, to limit these exhibitions of human daring within the bounds of something like a decent regard for safety. Possibly if the only persons who engaged in these performances and risked their limbs and lives. either for the mere ..fun of the thing or fer business purposes, were adults, or men or women of the professional class, no protective meas ures would be. necessary: but since innocent children of tender age and giddy youth of both sexes are beguil- ed into these same dangerous sports, to be maimed for life or killed out right, it seems imnerative that the law shall step in and draw the line beyond which these schemes for imDerilling human life shall Eot gO There still exists. we are sorry to believe, q con siderable fraction of people, even in this enlightened land. who are but little above the level of the Romans of ancient days in their taste for vulgar and brutal shows.

 ln denominating her social training cruelty, Mrs. Armstrong makes one of ne e,, most novel pleas ever presented Tn Chicago in similar litigation. She asserts the mental strain innnsad ss Tn. on her Tn committing to memory long poems and words from the dictiorlarg1 g brought on nervous prostration.
 The culture course prescribed by Armstrong it is declared, was enforced upon his young wife with harshness ana 1ndlgnities were heaped upon her when she failedSto please her husband and tutor.
 About three weeks after the we'd dlngd ay came the first complaints from Armstrong, his wife says, when he discovered her education not of the standard he wished it. From that tune, she says, she was charged with being stupid foolish and ignorant person, lacking in good taste, good sense and refinement and Ignorant of the amenities of cultivated society. Because of the { shortcomings he complained of, Armstrong is declared to have told his wife she was un- ! worthy to be the wife and associate of so accomplished person as he. When they were on the verge of separation, it seems, tie dictionary and poetry idea occurred 5. to Arm strong. The first tasks put to the ! bride it is alleged, were to commit to memory page after page of dict ionary of English words With the task went Longfellow's sIEvangeline, 7 and Mrs. Armstrong says her .hus- band required she should commit the entire poem to nlemory..
 When Mrs. Armstrong failed to spell pronounce and define the words put to her to the satisfaction of her husband, it is alleged, she was loudly, violently and abusively berated.
 While she studied and strove to please Armstrong the woman says, he gave himself over to hiss appetite for streng liquor. He brought liquor into the house in large bottles, she says,
 and consumed it in great quantities. l Not a day passed, she says, that he was not intoxicated for part of the 1 time, at least.-Chicag Chronicle

A Missouri paper says, Our advice to Missouri is, Don't buy automobiles: buy mules." This blast of wisdom is based upon prediction of government authorities that next year picked mules will be worth $23O and draft mules will be in demand at S2O0 each, says the Kansas City Journal. The mule has become a social and economic neces- sity. As one enthusiastic writer puts it. "The mule is Attest; hence 1t is bound to survive. Long after the last human being has been kicked of the face of the earth by the tentative, pre- hensile fipper of Missouri mule the stanch animal will roam and bray through the hills and continue to com maad the top of the market
