Disappearing Home Life.

The fiat dweller ought not to keep a
dog, prefers not to keep a cat, cannot
have garden, has no chance of keep
ing house, has no possible place for
memories and, most emphatically of
all, has no use or accommodation for
babies. Although it may be possible
to make homes without kittens, or
babies, or flowers, or memories, or
cupboards, the spirit of home is hard
to WOO and win without any of them.

Crocodiles Along the Nile.

At the sound of the shot the whole
of this bank of the river, over the ex-
tent of at least a quarter of mile,
sprang into hideous life, and my COM
panions and l saw hundreds of croco-
dies, of all sorts and sizes, rushing
madly into the Nile, whose waters
along the line of the shore were
dashed into white foam, exactly as a
heavy wave had broken.
1t could be no exaggeration to say
that at least a thousand of these sau-
rians had been disturbed at a single
hot,-Strand Magazine

Temper and Shyness Inherited.

Prof. Karl Pearson's conclusion after
many years of investigation was that
''the degree of resemblance of the
physical and mental characters of chill

TESTIFY CARI7HERS
WAS OF SOUND MIND
DEMENTIA NOT INEVITABLE RE-
SUIT OF DRINKING
Physician Who Attended Former
Wealthy Resident States on the
Stand His Belief That
Man Was Sane

A three hours session of Judge Bord-
wells court was yesterday taken UP in
the trial of the Carithers contested will
case.
Three witnesses were examined. Mrs.
l.. M. Vogel, whose husband was wit
ness to the will executed by William
D. Carithers in August, 1906, said she
believed Carithers to have been sound
in mind at the time this viii was made.
DR.. Edwin M. Butler of the Keely in
stitute testified he had treated Carith-
ers, who was a heavy drinker. He de-
clared that dementia is not an newt
able result of the continued use of
alcohol, and man might die from the
excessive use of intoxicants and still
have a sound mind up to the time OF
his death.
1t is a hard matter to tell where
sanity leaves off and insanity begins
he declared, and alienists who pro-
fessed to give opinions on such a
question, he believed, were guessing at
it, rather than expressing their views
based on actual knowledge.
James F. LeMaster, who was int1-
mately acquainted with Carithers dur
ing his lifetime, testified he believed
the old man was of sound mind up to
the time of his death.
The case was continued until o'clock
Monday morning.
