According to this writer, kitchen fren-

agnosis like any other illness. 1t is, be-
sides, highly infectious and can be
communicated from person td person.
It can extend from the servants of one
family to the servants Of neighboring
families, and it can even happen that
entire districts can be infected. The
cause Of this disease is usually to be
found in the heat to which its victims
are generally exposed, tp excess Of
light, sometimes to long continued
standing and other causes acting on the
nerve centerS. In it's earlier Stages the
disease manifests itself by sudden out
bursts of temper, happening in the

writer Of the article places the disease
under hysteria and pleads for more toll

OLD ENGLISH LAWS.
Diversity OF Religious opinion Once

Diversity OF Religious opinion Once
Forbidden by Henry VIII.
The old law books are curious read
Ing and give some funny ideas of what
kings and parliaments thought they
could do.
Henry VIII, for example, passed ian
act for the abolishing Of diversity Of
opinion In certain articles concerning
Christian religion" 1t staggers one to
think Of how many acts would be re-
quired today ito abolish diversity Of
opinion in religious matters. 1t is not
generally known In Scotland, the home
of football, that it Is still illegal to play
football An act passed In 1924 and
never repealed says, mo man shall
play at football under pain of 80
shillings"
But Scotch ladies with tendency to
overdressing are in no better position
Their overdressing Is still illegal. BY
an act of James III. restriction as to
dress is laid down, and only the wife OF

Bread Fruit.

Consul Anderson Of HangchoW thinks
the pomelo or Chinese bread fruit
would do well In this country.
The fruit Is grown in the United
States by few persons, but not com
mercially. Foreigners agree In declar-
Ing that the pomelo is the finest fruit
In the far east. 1t combines the good
points Of the orange with the good
points of the grape fruit.
The Chinese say that good sized
tree will ordinarily produce from 600
to 700 pomelos. When 1t is considered
that many pomelos win run as large
as seven or eight inches in diameter
and even larger It will be appreciated
that such tree is bearing load. The
fruit is more oval than round. It's col

grape fruit.

broadening fEaa Shoulders.

A. good exercise for broadening the
shoulders requires the person to place
his hands straight before him against a
door or wall, which he must face.
Straighten out the arms and let the
palms Of both hands be spread out up
ON the surface of the door. Then slow
Dy press the chest forward toward the
door. This will cause the arms to bend
at the elbows, but at the same time
will throw back the shoulders. Rowing
will broaden the shoulders very per
ceptibly. Exercises with dumbbells are
also good.

To Extinguhsh nm Electric Arc,

The blowing Of a fuse recently on
one of the trains of the New York
subway gave rise to considerable
smoke and for time alarmed the pas
gengers on the train. The alarm was
further increased by the electrical dis
play which occurred when one Of the
station men attempted to extinguish
the fire by throwing water over 1t. The
car was not damaged and at no time
were the passengers In danger, as they
probably realize now. It Is just as
well, however, Ii the many employees
Of the company were fully instructed
In the proper methods to pursue to ex-
tlnguish an electric arc. a bucket OF
sand Is of more value than a barrel of
water.-Electrical Review.

How to Pronounce SMk lnAlam.

The word Sakhalin, it would seem,
belongs to the Manchu language and
means 'black." English gazetteers
mark the stress ON the final syllable,
which they say should be sounded
''leen." The German pronunciation is
Sachalin, accenting the pennltimate
syllable, which the writer says is
wrong. The only doubtful point, ac-
cording to him, is whether the last
vowel should be ST." as the Russians
sound it, or whether it should be dipRl-
thongal "ie,'' as in slesta. (But surely
this "ie'' is not diphthongalD What,
however, appears to decide the CUES
tion Is the statement he quotes from
the Voyage" of La Perouse where

readers, who imbibe all, but only give

not so clean; jelly bag readers, who
keep the dregs and refuse and let the
pure run through: diamond readers,
who cast aside all that is worthless and
