Writer Says Genius Is Insanity,

According to Mrs. Kate Epson
Clark, the way to be happy, though
a genius, is never to marry. ''The
poets wife, said Mrs. Clark in a re-
cent address, docs not care for poet
ry after the first week, any more than
the grocer's boy does for figs. She
never wishes to tell of the neighbor-
hoods gossip but she interrupts some
great thought of her husbands; then
he imagines she is bereft of sympathy
and looks for it in the wives and
daughters of his neighbors, and If he
is handsome he usually finds it. The
genius should not marry. A woman
wants her husband-not his art. Gen
ius is insanity. In order to be gem
ius he lives most of the time in a
world Of deep emotions 1t is hard
for people of artistic temperament to
conform to ordinary rules. Thus
divorce, suicide, drunkenness and inn.
pulsive vices are found among people
of genius. The irrepressible tempera-
ment seems to be absolutely neces-
sary to art"

TOURISTS PESTS IN ROME.
Tip-Seekers, Beggars and Vendors
Fleece the Foreigners.

One hears great deal about the
Association to Facilitate the Move
ment of Foreigners" in Italy, but of
the good accomplished by these we'll
meaning persons, say the London Pail
Mall Gazette, one hears much less.
There is no doubt that there is a
crying evil in the peninsula which to
some people overbalances her I'M
doubted attractions-that Of the con-
tinual necessity to pay out money in
small sums if you wish any peace.
Take, for instance, the trip from
Naples to Sorrento and Capri. When
you return you are shorn of perhaps
lire, not more, but the giving of that
8 lire has been such WEAKNESS to
the flesh that you feel that you have
given thousands. First you fall into
the hands of the boatman to go on
board; getting down to Capri there
are fresh payments and on visiting
the grotto there are further disburse-
ments, with innumerable tips to odd
people and beggarS, while illustrated
post cards and coral vendors make
life a burden. And this is only one
example of what the press aptly calls
the hunt of the foreigners" 1t is
argued that this would be avoided if
the tourist paid something more for
his round ticket and had not to dis
burse these small sums.
The Swiss and Germans are no less
anxious to make money out of travel
ers, but SO marvellous is their organi-
zation that the victim is to some ex-
tent unaware of the fact and pays
cheerfully whatever is aked. This
being so, it is proposed to invite the
aforementioned society to move in
the subject and see if they cannot JUS
tify their existence.
Statistics show that the number of
beggars along the beaten track of
travellers has very much decreased and
that those who do exist are much less
importunate and although the so
ciety for Foreigners" claims credit, it
is more due to the Association
Against Begging" and still more to the
chiefs of police.

SULPHUR for pinhtheria.

Sulphur is one of the most effica-
cious and simple cures for diphtheria.
All that is needed is flour of sulphur
and a quill, and with these, it is said,
one celebrated physician cured every
patient without exception.
He put a teaspoonful of flour of sui
phur into a wineglass of water and
stirred it with his finger instead of a
spoon, the sulphur not readily amalga-
mating with water. When the sulphur
was we'll mixed the physician gave it
as .gargle, and in ten minutes the
patient was Sout of danger. Sulphur
kills every species of fungus in a man,
beast and plant in a few minutes. In
stead of splitting out the gargle the
swallowing of it is recommended.
In extreme cases in which the above
specialist had been called in the nick
of time, when the fungus was too
nearly closing to allow the gargling,
he blew the sulphur through a quill
into the throat and after the fungus
had shrunk to allow of it then gave
the garsle.

The following story comes from Bel

Two fellow travellers got into con-

of free. luggage, when one asked leave
to measure the others trunk. The re-
suit was that the measurer said:
Your trunk is seven and half CEN
timeters too long and has no right to
be in the compartment of free lug
gage. 1 am a railway inspector and
must fine you five francs. Please
give me your name and address"
The proposed victim of misplaced
confidence was, however, equal to the
occasion.
Kindly lend me your measure. that
I may satisfy myself on the subject. !"
Then, with a polite smile: Il am a
director in the royal weights and

experience on the farm will readily
recognize the value of some such de-
vice. With this it is impossible to per-
NIT the fruit to slip from ones hand.
and at the same time it is possible to
gather a greater amount of fruit than
could be done otherwise.
The apparatus is exceedingly sim
pie and consists mainly of a pair of
blades working much like the familiar
grass shears, except that they are
smaller and more suited for cutting
a tough stem than the longer shears
would be. The outer edges of the
blades carry bag which is designed
to hang below the metal, and as the
stem is severed the fruit will drop
into the bag without any possibility oil
damage. This enables the picking to
be conducted with one hand while the
other may be used for hanging on to
limbs, and it will be readily seen that

WOMAN AND HER HAT.

Masculine Theatergoer.

Masculine Theatergoer.
"a woman's wild anxiety not to be
separated from her hat, commented
a masculine theatergoer, according to
the Philadelphia Press, lis beyond me.
Last night 1 took my wife to see a
certain show and directly before her
sat a woman with a hat of decidedly
ample dimensions. She turned around
as the curtain went up, looked my
wife appealingly in the eye, and asked:
Will my hat be in your way, madam p
Her speaking at all took my other
half off her guard and, affected by
that beseeching look, she murmured
something inaudibly.
The hat stayed on, and my wife
bobbed first to one side and then to
the other, putting two and two togeth-
er, as it were, and making up in her
mind just what the complete stage
picture was life. The woman must
have been conscious of her victim s
tactics, for presently she looked
around again and, with misery all
over her face, asked: Does it annoy
you very much?'
my wife hadn't the heart to say it
did, so she viewed that hat all the
evening. What puzzled me was the
horror-even agOny-of the woman at
the idea of taking OF her hat. I won
dered if her hair had not been done UP
or if she were bald and her hat was
attached to her wig.

SWIMMING a GOOD EXERCISE.
Tests Show 1t Makes Greatest In
crease in Red Blood CorpuscIes.

A series of experiments conducted
by Dr. Philip B. Hawk, demonstrators
of physiological chemistry at the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania, has proved
that swimming is the most beneficial
exercise.
AS described by the Worlds, Work.
DIR. Hawk visited the dressing rooms
at the athletic field and Immediately
before each athlete left for his exer-
else drew blood from him by means
of the regularly prepared sterile
needle. Then when the athlete re-
turned to the dressing room after run
ming, jumping, pole-vaulting or engag-
ing in water polo the needle would
again be brought into play and a sec
ond sample of blood drawn.
Analysis of the blood to discover
how far each exercise increased the
number of red corpuscles showed that
water polo and other forms of swim
ming resulted in the largest increase.
The swimming exercises were thus
shown to be the most beneficial. for
the greater the number of red cor
puscles the richer is the blood. Swim
ming resulted in an average increase
of 81 per cent. as against Il per cent
for the next best exercise-short-dis
lance running.
After one of these examinations dur
ing the athletic season, while the men
were in the pink of condition and
exerting themselves to the Utmost, DIR.
Hawk found the following results, in
round numbers, from the count of the
blood corpuscles: Percentage of gain

The harvesting of the fruit of the

performance, for the reason that the
man engaged in this occupation must
have several things on his mind at
