jerome Is Hit Again.

The most important feature of the
days proceedings was the decision OF
the commission to limit the scope of
rs inquiry to the exact language OF
the statute-to determine solely the
question as to whether or not Harry
Thaw is able today to understand the
nature of the court proceedings against
him, and Is able to advise his counsel
i'll a rational manner. District Attor-
ney Jerome wanted to have his ex.
perts testify before the commission,
but that body declined, saying that the
purpose Of the inquiry was very SIM
pie one. and had to do not with any
classification Of mental diseases, but
with the prisoners present state Of
mind as judged by laymen.

Confronted with His Own Idea.

In laying down this decision the
commission confronted the district al
tcrney with the very position he has
maintained in putting Thaw on trial
for his life. Jerome contends that
Thaw was suffering from paIanoia on
the night of June % last when he shot
and killed Stanford White, but added
that paranoiacs often have knowledge
of what they are doing, and that Thaw
knew the nature and quality of his act
in killing White and knew that the
act was wrong. Thus while medical
experts may determine today that
Thaw is still suffering from paranoia
the question to which the lunacy com.
mission has decided to confne itself
deals solely with Thaw's knowledge as
to the proceedings against him AMI
his ability to advise his lawyers.

Advice to Mothers,

Treat your children with politeness
DO not tell them to shut their heads:
that you will lay them fat IL thew
open their mouths; that you will knock
their teeth down their throats: that
YOU will pound the life out of them;
that they are ugly brats and need
killing: that you wish that you might
never lay eyes on them again. DO not
use such language and then expect
them to treat you with distinguished
courtesy. Children are little animals
and learn from those around them
largely by imitation. If a. mother
yields to fatigue with, perhaps. a. re-
minder from her own upbringins and
a streak of natural coarseness, and
calls her children names and berates
at them, if it is a word and a blow
using the whip on her own flesh and
blood. she cannot reasonably look for
much in the way Of consideration from
her unfortunate victims. She may
work like a. slave, some of it. for them
and more of it for the qualification OF
her own pride, but all goes for naught
If she assaults her children with words
that cut like blows, and with blows
which should be attended to by the
authorities.
