ed his native city a few weeks ago, and
after scattering money right and left, dis
appeared, leaving a trail of plutocratic
acts which made his name resound from
one end of the civilized world to the
other.
Now that West is gone needy persons
from Alaska TO Panama and from Lon
don to st. Petersburg and Toxic, repre-
senting every nation where the art Of
writing is known, are writing 10 the
mayor, presumably to ask Vests adj

At least this is the Interpretation
placed by the mayor upon the swollen
mail bags which are gradually crowding
him out of his office. In order there

keenly around for some bright young
man with the gift of tongues who can

Among the Hinnonotnmi.

A somewhat embarrassing circumstance
is related by Miss Kingsley the African

We were going down a river in a
boat when we saw ahead of us n
herd Of hippopotam and / got rather
nervous. | asked my guide If the ami
mails were dangerous In this country.
Sometimes they are, ma am" said he.
and sometimes they're not. You can't

We went on and just as / was sure
we were safe one came up under the
boat. and we were ia the water. I

and when | returned 10 the surface
saw our crew making for the bank, and
heard voice saying:
DO you happen to survive, ma'am?i

Then hang on to tine canoe"
Il am hanging" said |. Hang your

And he did. | suggested the bank.
No said he, mot yet. Wait till the
canoe carries us past the land If
they can get foothold they'll stamp you
down. They can't do much IN deep wa

so we went on, expecting every mo-
ment that our legs would hit one Of the
creatures; and | was more than relieved
when we were again In safety.

The Cause and

ter all one of the main roots of neuras-
thenc misery is a moral one-egotism.
The suffer thinks too much about herself
She iaterprets the universe in terms of
friendliness or hostility to her own petty

the hands of physician who is also a

her inner life; he will warn her against
the power of attention and introspection
to originate and to develop states; he

the focus of consciousness. and how to
keep unhealthy and morbid ideas on the
outskirts of her mind. Her emotional
