CAUSE Of INSANITY
II Has Not Been Traced to Disease Of
the Brain.

Insanity Is not a disease Of the
brain, because no anatomical inves-
tigation, microscopic or otherwise,
can show the least difference between
either brain cell or fibre of per-
son dying insane and the healthy
brain of one killed in an accident.
But the same absence of brain
changes is noticeable in a whole class
of important chronic nervous diseas-
es- such as migraine, neurasthenia
hysteria and epilepsy. None of these
shows post-mortem any character
istic changes from normal brains.
Now, no one can minimize the i'm
portance of these nervous diseases.
Insanity alone Is serious enough.
When that dread spectre appears,
there is no getting used to It. Years
of familiarity with it, both in private
and in official relations, do not lessen
my recoil from the spectacle of
permanent, instead of-as with
drugs-a temporary, mental de-
| rangement. But 1t is facts connect
ed with these same insanities pro-
duced by drugs entering the blood
which awaken the hope that we may
find elsewhere than in the brain the
cause, and therefore, with the cause,
the best treatment for this dreadful
affection, as well as also for the other
nervous diseases which causes no
brain changes. If the brain OF
man who has been addicted to I'm
mense doses Of opium for years still
| shows in 1t no trace OF this mind
! deranging agent, while chemistry
quickly finds the reactions of this
| drug In his blood, the mistake OF
years on this whole subject begins to
come into view. 1t is singular how
long the sway Of that error has con-
tinued. for even yet many physicians,
including some neurologists, cannot
see the two sides of the problem.

Acquitted of Murder.

In 1917 one Richard Thornton,
called to the bar of the Kings Bench
charged with the murder Of Mary
Ashford, in open court threw down
his glove and defied his accuser.
Whereupon there was a pretty to-do.
Wager of battle, 1t was supposed, had
died a natural death in the dark ages.
but Lord Ellenborough, after much
consultation of precedent, held that it
was still the law of England, and or
dered a field to be prepared Thorn
toms accuser thereupon declining COM
bat, the prisoner was discharged. Next
year Parliament passed an act abol-
ishing this privilege of appeal to the
strong right arm.

Jackdaws and Bishops.

"The stronger churchmen you are,
said the Bishop of London at the
meeting of the Church Reading Union
"the better you get on with Noncon'
formists." He had told 5000 people
in America, among whom were many
Nonconformists, that the English
Church did not begin in the reign OF
Henry VIII. The frogs In the moat
of Fulham Palace and the )ackoaWs
on the steeples of Fulham Church
laughed at the idea that 1t only began
then. for they had seen bishops for j.
300 years. Laughter.) He looked to
the students of the Reading Union to
help in removing Observation-Disclosures
and to bring the facts clearly before
the great Nonconformist bodies

Eartbnuakes as Warnings.

The belief that earthquakes are
signs or warnings owes it's origin In
part to prophecies in the Bible,
where, for example. we read that
there shall be no famines and pestil-
ences and earthquake" as portending
future calamities. Earthquakes have
led to the abolition of oppressive tax
alton, the abolition of masquerades.
the closing of theaters and even to
the alteration Of fashion. A New
England paper of 1927 tells US that
"a considerable town in this province
has been so far awakened by the aw-
full providence in the earthquake that
the women have generally laid
aside their hooped petticoats."

Critical Eye for Babies.

The lve-year-old daughter of
Brooklyn man has had such a large
experience of dolls that she feels
herself to be something of connois-
seur in children.
Recently there came real live
baby into the house.
When 1t was put into her arms
the five-year-old surveyed it with a
critical eye.

nurse.
Yes, it's nice" answered the
youngster hesitatingly. "It's nice.

Dead Flies Valuable.

Few people probably know that
dead flies have commercial value. AS
reported from London. they come an
nually in barrels to the English capi-

and finally serve as food for birds and

where they hover close above the sur

MISSION or A TINY FISa.
To Destroy Mosquito Eggs and Save
Inhabitants of MalariaI Regions.

c. Kenrick Gibbons has discovered
that all the pools and swamps in
Barbadoes are stocked with swarms
of millions. a tiny fish which gets
It's name from its vast numbers and
which feeds on the larvae of the
mosquito.
Some specimens have been got to
England successfully and flourished
there in the insect house at the ZOO
logical gardens. Mr.. Gibbons has pro-
posed that the millions be imported
into malarial districts, and his sug-
gestion has been acted upon with
happy results. The health board of
Antigua, another island, being con-
vlnced of the useful part played by
these fish in consuming mosquito lar
vac, has arranged for their sys-
tematic distribution throughout the
ponds and streams of the island.
Like tidings come from Jamaica,
was sent not long ago. The secretary
of the agricultural society there
writes that the tanks at certain
hotel are full of them and that he
has been informed that there has
been marked dimipution of fever
round about, the millions evidently
accounting for the mosquito larvae.
They have also been sent to Colon
and British Guiana. 1t is suggested
that these useful FISH get trial In
the malarial regions Of Africa II, like
the malarial mosquito. the insects
which carry terrible diseases which
are endemic there pass the larval
stage OF their existence In water.
The Swedish Consul at Frankfort
has discovered another small fsh
named the blue-eyed which feeds on
mosquito larvae. At the request OF
the Italian Government some are to
be sent to the Campagna, where so
much has been done in recent years
to diminish malaria.

ILLINOIS TURTLE FARM
Owner Expects Also to Raise Gold
Fish and Guinea Pigs.

A mud turtle farm, which will Also
rooms, gold fish and guinea pigs, Is
the latest venture OF the head of one
of the big Western railroads. Presi-
dent II. l. Miller of the Chicago and
Eastern Illinois is the man who has
hit upon this novel form of diversi-
fed farming as a relief from busi-
ness cares, and he intends incidental
ly to show the farmers OF the grain
belt that 200 acres Of terrapins and
guinea pigs will pay bigger dividends
than even 80 cent corn.
The farm is located at harrington.
a suburb Of Chicago, and is tract
OF rolling timbered land. Numerous
lagoons and roads are being dug at
various points on the property and
an elaborate system OF irrigating
bitches will be established. The
guinea pig yards will cover several
acres and will be the largest 1t Is ex-
pected IN the country. The mush-
rooms will be allowed to grow wild
wherever they will in marshy spots
and damp hooks in the woods.
With the starting of the farm
comes to light some interesting facts
about a little known industry. 1t
is estimated that over 10000 turtles
are consumed annually in Chicago
restaurants. Some Of them are ter
rapin. but the greater part are mud
turtles, soft shells and snappers. The
demand for mushrooms Is enormous.

COUR|ERs ACROSS SAHARA
New Service From Niger to Mediter.
raEean-A 1000 Mile Desert Route.


Though a journey across the Sa-
TARA Is still an undertaking Of some
magnitude, the pacification of the
central region by the French has
been wonderfully rapid during the
last five years.
Removed as it seems from the ex-
citing influence of events in Morocco,
ani undisturbed by Senussite pro-
paganda, the French officers have
been able to establish friendly re-
lations with the Tuareg and other
Berber tribes, and have organized q
chain of posts right across the de-
sert connecting Algeria with French
West Africa. The route for the tele-
graph has been surveyed and wire
less" installation is being established.
Meantime, by the last mail from
Dakar the Governor Of French West
Africa reports that he has instituted
a monthly service by couriers be-
tween the Niger and the Mediterra-
mean. The southern point Of depart
ure will be the ancient town of Gao
on the Niger some two hundred
miles south of the rail head in the
Sud Oranasis. intermediate posts
have been establiyeed at Agades and
the Ahaggar. The oversight OF the
new route covers fully 1000 miles
of desert.
Much is expected in the way of
accustoming the wild tribesmen of
the Sahara to the new order of things
from the regular running of this SER
vice, and possibly some development
of trade may follow. But at pres
ent it will be useful chiefly as a
means of rapid communication be-
tween the French military posts. 1t
is intended that officers selected for
service in or returning home from
the Niger districts shall make use of
the transsaharan route, which will be
more direct and less costly than the
Journey from or to France via Sene-
gal or Dahomey. Both horses and
camels will be used on the new SER
vice.

The general and the peace commits
sioners counseled here for three days,
and IN the evening OF the tnfrd day an
orderly came to me and told me the
general wished me to report to him at
his tent. The general kindly invited
me in and said: "Billy. l want to go
from here now to Fort Kearny. on the
Platte river. In Nebraska. How far is
it?" / told him the way that he would
have to go to have good camping places
and that 1t would be about 300 miles.
He asked. Can you guide me there?'
l told him l could. and he said: "All
right. We will start tomorrow fol
Fort Zarrah and from there to Fort
Riley. and from Fort Riley l want you
to guide me to Fort Kearny." Which l
did, and on arriving at Fort Kearny
the general complimented me and said:
From here l am going to Fort Leav-
OA Wloh yO0 w SdAdO liz
there" / told him that would be easy.
for there was a big wagon road from
Kearny to Fort Leavenworth. He said:
THAT is all right. 1t will make 1t
easier for you. You have guided me
safely for over 300 miles where there
were no wagon roads, and l am not
afraid to trust myself with you on a
bio xro sod - On arrfrt-~ - 7 49,
enworth I parted with the general.
and he said General Sheridan was COM
ing out to take command in a short
time and that he would tell him of me.
This was the last time | saw the dear
old general for several years. He was
n of the loveliest men l have ever
had the pleasure of knowing.
One day In the spring of 1868 l
mounted Brigham and started for
Smoky Hill river. After galloping
about twenty miles l reached the top
of a small hill overlooking the valley
Of that beautiful stream. AS | was
gazing down on the landscape l sud
denly saw a band of about thirty In
dams nearly half a mile distant. |
knew by the way they jumped on their
horses that they had seen me as soon
as ! came In sight.
The only chance l had for my life
was to make a run for 1t. and l imme-
diately wheeled and started back to-
ward the railroad. Brigham seemed
to understand what was up, and he
struck out as II he comprehended that
1t was to be a run for life. He crossed
a ravine in a few jumps, and on
reaching a bridge beyond l drew rein,
looked back and saw the Indians COM
ing for me at full speed and evidently
well mounted. l would have had little
or no fear of being overtaken If Brig
ham had been fresh. But as be was
not l felt uncertain as to how he
would stand a long chase.
Ny pursuers seemed to be gaining
on me a little. and | let Brigham
shoot ahead again. When we had run
about three miles farther some eight
or nine of the Indians were not oyer
200 yards behind, and five or six of
these seemed to be shortening the gap
at every jump. Brigham now exerted
himself more than ever. and for the
next three or four miles he got right
down to business and did some of the
prettiest running I ever saw. But the
Indians were about as well mounted
