"As to the matter of destroying in
fants deformed at birth, history proves
that the Spartan theory was wrong.
1t often happens that the best intel
lect is natures compensation for the
worst body, and the infants intellect

at. The Spartans would have killed
Byron because he had club foot and
the Constable de Bourbon because he
had crooked back. Logical enforce
ment of DR.. Gregory's ideas would
have caused the murder of Homer and
Milton when they became blind. Ma
homet would have been slain because
he had fits. Caesar and Napoleon
would each have received his quietus

Scarron would have been destroyed
when taken with paralysis, and France
would have lost the million laughs
which were surely worth several lives
Pope would have received euthanasia
before giving the world his Essay on
Man. for he was so feeble that he
had to be laced in a strait-jacket in
order that he might even sit up.
"The list of great men who have
been physically afflicted might be in

it's introduction has wrought has been
to cast suspicion upon the noblest of
professions and the most altruistic of
nstitutions-the physicians and the
hospitals"

LYING AS A DISEASE.

That a confirmed habit of purpose
less lying, when present in an adult,
is true disease is asserted in Ameri-
can Medicine philadelphia, January
49, by DR.. Alfred Gordon, of Jefferson
Medical college, This condition Is
often observed in young children,
"errors of perception and misinterpre-
tation," the natural accompaniment of
"a life full of creative imagination and
free from inhibition" DR.. Gordon goes
on to say:
"This condition makes its appear
ance in child the moment the psychic
life becomes active, increases gradu-
ally during the first few years, but
then imperceptibly decreases, and dis
appears at puberty in normal individ-
uals. This is a natural physiological
cycle of events. Should the condition
persist instead of disappearing, we
have then to deal with pathologic
condition.
"a psthologic tendency of exagger-
alton, for telling untruths, for invent
ing impossible events may be present
in an adult as well as in a child. In
both cases it can be considered as
stigma of mental degeneration
Men that had usually large opportun'-
ties to observe idiots, like Bounrne-
vile, for example, state that deception
and falsehood are precocious symp-
toms. But there is far larger class
of young individuals, so-called degen-
crates, who present these morbid
symptoms to more pronounced de-
gree. These intellectual weaklings
do not progress with their age; they
are psychically infants, are deprived
of power of reasoning, of criticism
They are easily influenced, they are
highly suggestible. While in some
cases these youths show the tendency
for lying, for msrepresenting facts,
etc., tendency which leads to harm
less consequences, in another group of
cases the brutal perverted instinct is
the main feature. In the latter case
malice, hatred, jealousy, revengeful-
ness, cruelty. desire for destruction,
are the manifestations of such young
degenerates. These young monstros-
tiles show a precocious criminal in
stinct, which is so important properly
to interpret from a legal standpoint.

One Of the many interesting sights al
Yellowstone Park IS the eagle mother
teaching the young to start on the journey
Of life. With her own wing she pushed
the young bird off the rock Of the iIeh
ledge, which had been the only home Il
had ever known. With a mothers eye
she watches il fall but before It strikes
the rock below, with the speed Of the wind
she darts beneath It and the young eagle
finds soft landing upon the feathers Of
It's mothers back. It IS then carried to
the highest cliff and the experiment r..
peated until the young eagle gets strength
IN Its wings and can safely 60 on lifs's
journey alone. With the same watchful
cares does the good mother see her flock,
one by one, leave the old homo. One BY
one she lets them 60. One to bs mis-.
sionary, one doctor, one a publisher.
With the eye Of an eagle she watches
them as they successfully travel in their
chosen paths, and they frequently cast :
look back and see their ever faithful
mother still watching. To whom Is their
success due? Verify to that mother whose
Christian teaching started their little feet
Alright and whose salnt-llke face acted as
q beacon light to them when tossed upon
the strong sea of temptation.
