One Of the manias which are evil

legality Is concerned. but the attend

with the greatest respect in order to
humor the demented creatures.
Some of these wills would be anus

of mind Of which they are the outcome.

be handed over to an imaginary charity

constantly admiring IL. 4 similar be-
quest was that of patient who left his
property to an attendant because he
possessed one Of the ugliest nasal or

That man was laughed ut who on
his first voyage said that the ocean
did not look SO large as he supposed
it would, but he was not alone In ex.
periencing disappointment. The hor-
lion at sea gives no idea Of the linn
itless water beyond. A sea captain de-
clares that the average landsman can
not see more than ten miles from the
ship in any direction, and it would
have to be mountain or some station
airy object for him to be able to dis
tinguish it. The masts Of q ship are
said to be visible to the naked eye not
more than five miles.

Jenny Lind as q child Of three years
was the lark Of her parents house. As
a girl Of nine she attracted the atten-
ton Of all.lovers Of music and entered
the Stockholm conservatory as pupil.
Her continuous studies at SO tender an
age caused the sudden loss of her voice,
and for four full years she pursued her
theoretical and technical studies, when
suddenly the full sweet sounds came
back, to the delight, as every one
knows, Of thousands for many years.
