"BRArN-FAG" A MYTH.

l The so-called ''brain-fag' is a silly myth. The brain does not tire; intel lectual work does not hurt under nor l1nal conditions It is eyestrain that tcauses all the brain-fag which the newspapers have been exploiting of late. Spencer learned this lesson and escaped the tragedy of Nietzsche and Carlyle by dictating his writings, get ting others to do his research work for him, and by being willing to go with out vast realms of accurate knowledge. Parkman was driven to similar expe- ldients. But all the rest groaned and suffered even while they wrote little notes and postal cards in stead of let ters to their best friends.
 The result in suffering was incalcu- lable and horrible There are biogra- lphies of these people which do not al llude to it; physicians and medical edi- ltors have been known who smiled iron Iically at the 'exaggeration" of vivid Iimagination;' and there are number Hess fools who think they are excused from all sympathy with Carlyle or a Nietzsche They do not know that the 1 misery Ol liS pdlH Ul OllC' eIl1Sh VI eiAS nausea of sick headache has not been equaled except to some mediaeval or oriental torture chamber. When for some profound reason the dominant and oldest instinct of the organism that for food and nutrition-is violent fly reversed, it should be plain even to the stupidest mind that the deepest wronp exists and that the very springs of life are being drained. Add to this another symptom almost equally terri ble, intense pain in the brain, the or gan controlling both character and life processes, and what disease could be more desperate? How many of our lpatients had sick-headache it is mr. possible to tell, owing to the disincli- nation, especially in letters and bio- graphies, to speak of vomiting. Prob ably most of them did suffer from it more of less.-George M. Gould, M. D., 1 in the Booklovers' Magazine.

ANCIENT KEYS.

Some Were Ornate And Beautiful
 Master Keys To Palaces.
 In the sixteenth century European ironworkers produced keys enriched with ornaments in relief and treated as works of art. Nothing could be more graceful than the embossed figures, coats of arms and grotesque arabesques which embellish the bows, which in this utiltarian age are replaced by ordinary metal rings. The keys were first cast and then chisseled by an expert ar tisan. The so-called ''Strozzi key for merly the property of Henri III of France, changed hands few years ago for the enormous sum of $6,000. The bow represents two sphinxes with gro- tesque heads, back to back, on the capi- tai of 8 column. The stem is in the form of two concentric pipes; the bit is shredded like a very fine comb. An other famous key dates from the begin ming of the seventeenth century; the elaborate represents two seated male figures supporting ducal corenet. A third key is exceptionally ornate; the entire available space is enriched with arabesques, terminating in cupids, re- clining river gods, a standing figure of Victory and similar devices The stem of this key is supported by figures of a man and woman.
 Under Philip II of Spain and his sue cessors the Ministers of the crown were possessed of what the Spaniards termed a clave maestro or master key, which gave them admission to the royal palaces. During the reign of Charles II (f675-1T0O) gilt master keys were con- ferred on the nobles and gentlemen in attendance on the King. These keys corresponded with and gave admission to all the rooms of the royal palaces. They had huge, oblong bow handles, which projected from the righthand pocket and were attached to the per- son by a ribbon. The subordinate members of the royal household were honored with similar keys, though they were not gilt. It is recorded that if one of these keys was lost the unfortunate loser had to warn high official of the court who at once had all the locks changed at a cost of over 10000 Spanish dollars. This large sum had to be paid by the unluckly Individual who lost the key. Another curious custom in vogue in the peninsula at that time was the giving of dummy keys as badges to officials and to certain nobles who held no post, as mark of favor and dis tinction.
 Egyptian keys exist that are about 400O years old. They consist of straight pieces of wood furnished with three fixed wooden pins. An ancient writer says that "the keys of Egyptian tenn pies bore the figure of a lion, from which chains were suspended having a heart attached to them. During the Roman occupation of Egypt, when iron was in general use, keys were made of that metal, many of them having a long straight shank, or stem, about five inches in length, with bar at right angles to it. on which are three or more projecting teeth, with a bow or ring at the opposite extremity. Another varie- ty of Roman Egyptian key has wood en knob ill place of the ring.-Chicago News.

MASSACRE OF ARMESIAHS
SASSUN DISTRICT DEVASTATED
 BY TURKTSH TROOPS

People Killed and Villages Burned--Ad-
 vantage Taken of RussIa's Preoccu- patton in the Fnr East-Ambassadors
 at ConstaninopIe Send ConsuIx to Err
 zerum, in Hopes of Limiting the Atrocities.
 Paris, May 1S.--An official dispatch to the foreign office from ConstantinopIe confirms the reports. that Turkish troops have burned villages throughout the Sassun district of Armenia, killing the inhabitants. The French ambassa- dor. M. Constans. has joined with the Russian and British ambassadors in sending consuis to Erzerum. in the hone of limiting the destruction and blood shed. How ever. the official advices. although brief, indicate that the work iof exterminating the Armenians occu- pying the mountainous districts of Sas- sun is practically accomplished.
 The Turkish. methods appear to have been much the same as those adopted during the Armenian massacres. The official reports do not give exact details as to the number Of towns burned and people killed, but they show that the action of the Turks has been sweeping.
 The French authorities were advised some time ago that Turkey was tak- ing advantage of Russia's preoccupa- ton in the Far East, and intended to adopt decisive course toward the re- bellious Armenians. The information then showed that the Turks would be- gin the work of suppression about April 15. In order to prevent this, the powers madee an energetic protest. This delay led Terkey's action. which, however, has now been executed with the same ,se- verity as at first contemplated.
