Statistics Sometimes WRONG.

Statistics are not always right, so
far as the causes OF insanity are con-
cerned, according to DR.. Britton D.
Evans, head of the New Jersey hos
pital for the insane at Morris Plains.
In his annual report this year he says:
"The occupation of insane patients
previous to admission is thought by
many to play an important part in the
causation of their mental alteration.
OF the 495 adrnitted during the last
year 100 were housemaids and domes-
tics, which is 30 per cent. of the total
admissions. This is interesting, but
not in harmony with the contention Of
numerous statisticians."

PROVED DOCTORS AT FAULT.
Had In Vain Attempted to
Talk OFF.

Everybody has heard of talking the
hind leg off donkey. Lloyd Os-
bourne, author of "Infatuation" and 9TH
er popular novels, once actually tried
to do this-to a man! 1t happened
when Mr.. Osbourne was in the South
Seas with Robert Louis Stevenson.
The man In question was magnifi-
cent specimen of humanity, six feet
high, about 80 years old. with su-
perb development. He was a Samoan
who had been shot through the knee
in one Of the civil wars OF the island,
and was lying in an improvised mill
tary hopsital The naval doctor told
Mr.. Osbourns that this man would not
allow his leg to be cut off, which was
the only possible way of saving him.
Knowing that the author spoke Sa-
moan f1uently and was a man Of
standing among the natives, the doc
tor asked him to try and persuade
their friend to consent to losing his
leg. For an hour Mr.. Osbourne ex-
erted every argument he could think
of, but the Samoan, with sort of
splendid untamed nobility. said he
would rather die than walk about
cripple for the rest of his life. 1t was
sad to have to leave him and feel his
resolution could not be broken =
In three weeks he had perfectly re-
covered, and, except for slight stiff
ness, was the same superb specimen
of humanity he had always been. Mr..
Osbourne confesses that he never
liked to meet him very much, as that
| leg of his always inspired feeling of
shame.

MOROCCAN SEAT OF LEARNING.
.kaIrouln University is the Only Edu-
cationai Institution in the
Monprsb.


The katroun university
largest mosque in Fec, and the only
seat Of learning in the Mongreb. Here
from dawn to ouh are lectures on law;
in the afternoon from dohr to asar
there are courses in grammar, syntax,
prosody, logic, elocution and rhetoric.
Astronomy and mathematics and his
tory are of lesser importance. There
still exist the remains OF once cele-
brated library at Kairouin. In the
tenth century students from all parts
of the world, Christian as well as
Mohammedan, assembled in this beau
tiful mosque of the 800 pillars OF
marble; but in this country of human
poverty and national decay the past
greatness is bu. a memory. No more
are books lent TO the students. So
many were not returned that the once
famous library Is reduced to about a
thousand volumes. Occasionally text
books are road aloud to those students
who wish to copy them. In groups sit
ting around their professors in diff
ferent corners Of the mosque the stu
dents follow their studies. While
awaiting the uncertainties of the fu-
ture they cheerfully live on public
charity.
Once a year the students have their
gala week, and a sultan of the toiba
is chosen. 1t Is an ancient custom,
and greatly enjoyed both by the stu
dents and the citizens of Fez.
