Teeth Have to Answer.

1t is the teeth that the pathologist
should first look for an explanation OF
those emotional crisis in the lives OF
all of us which assume now the form
of an exaggeration of the sentiment
of romantic love, again an intensified
tion of insomnia and sometimes q de-
velopment of religious sensibility to
the boundary line Of mania.
In making good this theory the pro-
fessor of diseases Of the nervous sys-

many of the ordinary cases of nervous
wreck met with in daily experience
to a misunderstanding of the depth

This Is the hero:
Only those wise In the woodlore OF

different kind, but glorIfled freak Of
the red race. His parents may have
been the commonest OF red foxes, yet
nature In extravagant mood may have
showered all her gifts on this favored
one OF the offspring, and not only
clad him In a marvellous coat. but
gifted him with speed and wind and
brains above his kind, to guard his
perilous wealth. And need he has OF

New Order of Merit.

How to arrest depopulation con-
stantly taxes the minds Of ingenious
statesmen. The latest brilliant idea
is special decoration, with special
ribbon, of a special pattern and color,
for fathers of large families. The
weakness of Frenchmen for ribbons
In their buttonholes is we'll known,
and has been laughed at by none so
much as Frenchmen themselves, but
1t may as well be turned to account,
so the ingenious statesman in ques-
ton proposes granting the new Order
of Merit to fathers of six children at
least. Less than that number would
not be qualification. The round
dozen of offspring would entitle the
happy sire to the highest rank in
the order, with star or brilliants. But
the strange thing is that no one seems
to think of decorating the Mothers

RunaWays from Russia.

Every now and again the Russian
quarter in the east end of London
is stirred up by the arrival Of prison
breakers from Russia. They are not
criminals, but men and women who
have been sentenced for political rea
sons.
The accounts OF their escapes very
often hardly seem credible. For In.
stance, London is now harboring one
OF party Of ten who brought on
coup in Warsaw. The Pavik prison
there is one Of the strongest In the
world. It's head received telephone
message from the military governor
that ten OF the prisoners were to be
transferred to the citadel, for which
purpose he was sending an oficer with
a sufficient guard.
In due course, an officer, accompa.
MED by six policemen, produced an
official looking document authorizing
the transfer Of the ten men, who
were fully described. The prisoners
were driven away in prison van, and
never seen again. The van and uni
forms we're found later on the out
skirts of the city.
The Akatui prison, eastern Siberia,
provided London with another run
away. This man managed to secrete
himself in a picked cabbage barrel,
and was stored away in cellar under
the governors house. He tunneled
through the foundation, was met by
friends with a sleigh, and safely
reached a refuge, where he planned
the trip to the metropolis.-Tit-Bits.

Underground Rivers of Australia.

There are comparatively fow rivers
of any size or Importance in Austral-
la, and local learned professor Of
science has been explaining the reas-
on. In consequence of the geologi-
cal formation of the Commonwealth
most Of its rivers are at present i'm
prisoned subterranean streams.
He declares that one of these un-
derground rivers Is the largest in the
world, being no less than 200 miles
wide and running right through the
centre of the continent. If these
vast supplies of subterranean waters
were brought to the surface and prop
erly utilized Australia would become
the richest country in the world

Self.Disqraced.

In Boston, as every one knows, the
Symphony concerts are viewed in
the light of sacred ceremonials. In
this connection the story is told of
two little girls Of certain family who
returned from the Music hall "in a
state of mind" One Of them carried
an expression Of deep scorp; the 9TH

'What is the matter, girls?" asked
some member of the household. "Was

A FAMOUS BATHTUB.
The Big Shoe In Which Marat Was
Killed Now In Paris Museum,


The bathtub in which Marat was
killed by Charlotte Corday is still in
existence. A man who has seen 1t in
Paris, where 1t is now on sale, says
that 1t is totally unlike the bathtubs
with which we are familiar.
ut is shaped like a sabot, or shoe"
he writes in the London Illustrated
News, "and is covered except for a
space where the bather gets in. 1t
is not long enough for a man to
stretch out comfortably. That would
be impossible anyway, owing to the
shape. The occupant must sit up, his
head and shoulders coming out of the
ankle OF the shoe.
"On the upper part there are two
hooks which could be used to support
a desk. A sort of stool in copper Is
fixed to the bath which enables the
bather to sit and write. Under this
stool the heating apparatus was plac-
ed.
THAT bath has not been used since
the murder, and even now, perhaps,
the blood marks of 'tthe friend OF the
people can be seen. At least the sui
phur and other chemicals used by
Marat, who, as is known, suffered
from skin disease, have left their
trace on the metal.
After passing through many hands
the bath came into the possession Of
the cure Of Sargeau, who sold 1t to the
Grevin Museum for 1900 francs"
