DEPRAvITY IN ITALY
Criminal Parents and Wretched
Homes Chiefly TO Blame.

Homes Chtefly to Blame.
Consul Britain of Kehl. Germany.
furnishes some startling statistics on
Juvenile crime in Italy, taken from an
article recently published and written
by Limo Ferriani He says that so per
cent of the child criminals of Italy are
manufactured by bad environment
and inadequate education-in other
words, by preventable causes; that 80
per cent of the criminals of the coun-
try are minors, and of these S5 per
cent are thieves.
Prof. Ferriani protests against SEN
timental description. but pleads for
scientific investigation. He has close
ly studied 500 boy prisoners between
the ages of IL and /, and reports that
more than half of them came from
the most wretched homes, and over
200 had criminal parents. Very few
had ever done any work, all were sex
ually corrupt. nearly all smoked, and
many had a taste for alcohol.
AS proof of how little COOS is ef-
fected by mere instruction apart from
moral training, he asserts that the
best scholars we're among the worst
offenders. AS an alternative to prison
the author proposes agricultural col
onies in districts where the air is
bracing. with good food and outdoor
work, kindly discipline, and the super.
vision of an experienced physician.

Modern love-Making.

Courtship is dead. Young men no
longer make passionate avowals, they
never start when she approaches
they do not grow pallid with jealousy
If another seems to be in favor, they
certainly do not write sonnets to their
mistress eyebrow-in fact, they
scarcely even go so far as to write her
a letter, and if they do go this length
the result is never worth republishing
in book form. Lovers do not talk
about their hearts, and so on. and
IL engagements are terminated the
severed twain have no scruples about
subsequently meeting each other. In
novels something must be done to
make up for the unromantic spirit of
the age. so awful situations have to be
invented for helpless heroines, who
either have to kill themselves or be
killed or die in lunatic asylums or con-
vents.-Exchange.

MANUFACTURE NOSES.
The Notoriety Of Indore Rests Upon
its Hospital.

The city of Indore is modern and
ugly and uninterestiag. Apart from
being the prosperous capital of a rich
state, its chief claim to notoriety rests
upon its hospital, which has won uni
versal fame by the manufacture of arti-
fetal noses. That may seem very
limited industry on which to build a
name. But in India tE,r re are several
ways of promoting this Industry. When
woman comes to the hospital carry
ing her nose in napkin you may fair
ly assume that her husband suspects
a breach of the seventh commandment.
When a man appears in the same
plight you may set him down as a
usurer who has fallen into the hands
of his clients. and has had no Portia
to plead his cause. Indore is the Nice
ca of these unfortunates.
