Very Lucid.

A lady left her home for her annual
visit to her mother. Before her depart
ure she told her husband that If he
wanted anything that he could not cas-
lily find he was to write to her for di-
rections. Don't turn the house upside
down, as you generally do" she said
II will answer at once and tell YOU
Just where it is Soon after his Wife's
departure a neighbOr came In to borrow
a pattern of dress. The husband
wrote, as he had been requested to do.
This was the answer by return-"You
will find it hanging on the wall by the
garnet stairs. or in the box on top Of
the sewing machine in Ellen's room
the green box, or the red one, forgot
which. Perhaps though, 1t Is on the
top shelf In the cupboard in our room

rectly, but look on the other side, too.
If not there it is in the bottom drawer
of the bureau in the hall. That is where
l keep my patterns, and don't unite all
the bundles. 1t is among them some
where. Perhaps it is in the second
drawer. 1t is somewhere upstairs, any
way, so don't rummage downstairs

fresh in the minds Of many. 1t was at
this time that the company came into
malodor throughout the nation. When
the smoke cleared away 1t was found
that the "anti-lottery' party had won.
The finish of this fight compelled the
Louisiana company to find new Dase
OF operation. Experienced lottery men
declare that Mexico would have been
the logical location. for there lottery
was looked upon as legitimate, and the
government accepted from the lottery
companies a tax on gross receipts But
Honduras. instead Of Mexico, was
chosen. This was fifteen years ago,
since which time the concern has been
known as the Honduras National Lot
terry
Its legal residence abroad, however,
did not change the fact that most or
it's sales were in the United States
The enactment of the Federal law
prohibiting the transmission Of lottery
matter through the mails was severe
blow to the business, but not as serious
as was supposed at the time, as the
express companies promptly began the
work Of carrying the contraband mat
ter. AS the government fight grew
fiercer even the express companies de-
clined to handle the tickets and lists
and the company was forced to dis
tribute them by messenger.
The profits of the Louisiana lottery
crowd during the years of it's existence
can be Appropriated from known fig
ures. For instance, the largest months
business ever done by the company
was the last month before the removal
to Honduras. when $2,4OO,OOO was
taken in by the lottery. 1t is probable
that the profits from the lottery have
not been less than 500, 100000, all told.
The plan Of operation called for the
distribution each month Of IS per cent
Of all money taken in for prizes.
Agents commissions averaged 20 per
cent, administrative and miscellaneous
expenses averaged 5 per cent, which
left 20 per cent of net profit. The
gross income of the company figured
OH this basis must, then, have been at
least $125,OOO,O0O during it's life.
Before the government began it's
fight on the Louisiana company a win
ming ticket was known to be as good
as certified check and express COM
panies and many banks cashed them.
Il is not only likely, but almost GER
tain, that had the Louisiana company
not debauched the State with policy
it would have secured a twenty five
year extension of it's charter But the
policy game forced 1t into a fight in
which it was compelled to buy Con-
gressmen and government officials. The
secret pay roll of this company would
be a most interesting and sensational

In real or supposed imitation Of col
lege youths, still more youthful students
in high schools and preparatory schools
have adopted strange head-gears In
stead OF the modest boyish cap and the
neat soft or stiff felt hat for dress
up" some fantastic boys have topped
themselves with slouch-hats, variously
distorted in the shape Of the brims
and even decorated with markings and
devices. The principal of one high
school has asked his boys to cast off the
crazy head-coyerings. The matter of
decency and simplicity Of dress is real
ly important. The boy who deliberately
wears something that draws attention
to himself may be pardoned by any one
with humor enough to understand boy
ish folly. Nevertheless, the habit of
unobtrusive dress is good one to cul-
tivate early.

stage near this number Wheel stood
a similarly constructed wheel one-thlrd

the giving of 3,434 prizes at each draw

In each Of these tubes was slip or
paper containing figures representing
each prize.
Thus equipped, the commissioners
were ready to begin the drawing For
spectacular effect two boys from the
local asylum for the blind were chosen
to draw the tubes from the wheels.
A robust negro turned the cranks, mix
ing the rubber tubes in the wheels
thoroughly. Then one of the blind
boys drew tube from the big wheel.
A man selected by the commissioners
for the purpose extracted the rolled
slip from the tube. held it up before
the audience and announced the num-
Der At the same time the other blind
boy drew a tube from the prize
Wheel and the announcer called out
the sum called for by this slip. This
prize, then, was drawn by the number
drawn from the other wheel at the
same time. The drawing required hours
and usually was largely attended.
So thoroughly were advertised the
features provided for the insuring Of
an honest drawing that the public soon
became convinced that there was no
chance for iugglery, and so long as the
company existed the buyers of tickets
purchased in the utmost confidence
that if they did not win it was not
because of unfair drawings
During the late sos the feeling
against the policy part Of the scheme
had grown strong in New Orleans.
Policy gambling had run riot for years.
1t had taken such a hold ON the ser
want and poorer classes that they could
not be trusted with either their own
or other peoples money. A maid sent
to the store for supplies stopped Oh
the way to play policy with the money
given her by her mistress. The city
was demoralized. 1t was at this time,
under the Howard administration. that
the lottery got into politics. The "lot-
terry" and "anti-lottery" parties sprang
into being. The leader of the latter
was United States District ATTORNEY
Parlange, a Christian gentleman to
whom the evils Of policy appealed
most strongly.

When ChIoroforn Was New.

Here is curious little story about
Sir James Simpson, the man who in
PRODUCED the use Of chloroform into
surgery, and a peril which he escaped,
as recorded by Lyon Playfair. Simp-
son when busy with his researches in
to the subject of anaesthetics called
one day ON Playfair and asked If he
had anything new likely to produce
anaesthesia. Playfair had just pre-
pared a liquid which seemed worthy of
trial Simpson, who knew no fear, pre-
pared instantly to test it on himself.
This Playfair refused to allow until it
had first been tried on rabbits. Two
were procured and placed under the eff
fects of the anaesthetic. Next day
Simpson proposed to try it on himself.
I'VE might as we'll see how the rabbits
have fared," said Playfair. They found
both the animals dead.

Huddersfeld, England, has lately
been the scene Of a curious and interest
ing experiment made by the Mayor. In
Longwood, poor district of the town,
the rate of mortality among young
children had been 122 In the thousand.
The new Mayor, Mr.. Broadbent, a
brother Of Sir William Broadbent. the
Kings physician, decided when he took
Office to do what he could to reduce this
high death rate. The plant he adopted
was the offer of a guinea to parents in
certain specified districts for every child
born during his term of office and liv-

the fact that serious epidemics of
whooping-cough and measles prevailed
during the year of the tests and that

Shall the patient be told what ails
scribed for him or shall the physician
maintain a dark and mysterious silence
except as to the amount of his fee!
This is the question which was pro-
posed by no less a parsonage than the
President of the American Medical AS
ISOLATION the other day. He did not an
swer his own interrogatory, but his OBJ
servations indicated that he favored a
policy of greater candor upon the part
of the physician. There is obviously
something to be said on both sides Of
the question. 1t is true that the patient
wants to know what is wrong with him
and at first sight 1t may look as il the
physician ought to satisfy the desire
for information. But there are good
and substantial reasons why the doctor
does not do SO. For one thing, the
chances are that he does not himself
know what ails the sufferer. For an
other thing, it might do the patient
more harm than good to be told Of his
disease. The first-named reason In
wolves no reflection upon the skill and
learning of the doctor. The physician
never lived who could unfailingly dag
nose Offhand and from one observation
Fever, for instance, marks the onset of
dozen different diseases and until
distinctive symptoms develop the medi-
cal man cannot tell which one Of the
dozen diseases is in progress. Under
is to maintain a dignitied reticence I'M
til he actually knows what Is wrong.
TO guess and guess wrong would be dis
aStrOus. When we come to consider
the matter of informing the patient
concerning the drugs that have been
prescribed for him the considerations
favor a negative conclusion. There is
a psychic as we'll as a material force in
a medicine whose constituents are I'M
known to the patient All doctors know
it. The bread pill and other ''placebos'
prove it. Tell man that he is taking
calOmel, for instance, and he is likely
to protest that caiomel always disagrees
with him and never did him any good
Give him calomel accompanied by the
assurance that here is q most potent
drug whose name he need not know and
his sense Of the marvellous Is excited
He is likely to put faith in the drug
for the very reason that he does not
know what 1t is. That Is half the bat
tie. Our modern physicians may not
acknowledge 1t, but they practice faith
cure more and more every day. The
power Of suggestion helps the calomel
when the patient does not know what
he is taking. All things considered,
therefore, the weight of evidence is In
favor Of the policy Of mysterious 81
lence on the part of the doctor. 1t not
only aids the patient but it helps the
doctor, for the less he says the less he
will have to explain if things go wrong.
