ton of tuberculosis estimates that
the annual cost to the country for the

$50, 1000, 900 at the rate of $1.669 per
day per patient. At the lowest pos

cared for at the expense of the munic-

FREAKS IN C|RCUSES'
People Are Strangely Fascinated
by The Monstrosities.
When the demonstrated Gorilla" Got
the Show Into Trouble-Hot
Water Spells a "Mermaid"
to Uncover Fake.

LOndon.-It seems strange that
freaks, from the legless wonder to the
%two-headed calf, should possess such
a strange fascination for nine people
out of ten, yet this is undoubtedly
the case.
OF course, there are many so-called
| freaks which have no business to be
called by such an unpleasant name,
for If one argues from the dictionary
a freak is a monstrosity, and a mon
| strosity, in the generally accepted
sense Of the word, is something hor-
| rible. The giant and the dwarf are
interesting and unusual, but certainly
should not be called freaks"
Hunchbacks were an exception to
the rule, for all kinds of powers were
attributed to them. There are some
very sensitive people to whom the
sight of anything in the nature of a
monstrosity is absolute pain, and
women are fortunately few and far
between who fall in love with a mon.

The ordinary individual comes
across very few physical freaks, and
one cannot but wonder whence the
showman's rank and file are recruited
Perhaps, If the truth were known
more than half of the show freaks are
"fakes." There are many good storie:
told of these sham freaks, who, owing
to some contretemps, have "given tn

The Dentists Joke,

At a recent dinner Of the Authors
club in London to Mr.. Owen Seaman,
the editor of Punch, Mr.. Walter
Emanuel, another member Of the staff
of Punch, referred to the fact that the
man with the largest sense of humor
he had ever struck was an E%nglishman
"a dentist. He went to him after SUI:
fering long with a toothache. He re
fused to have gas, and the dentist
pulled out a tooth, leaving him with

he then took the shape Of a very
quiet, ordinary little The public
particularly enjoyed seeing the go
rilla swing from the horizontal bar
by his tail, an appendage which is
very slightly developed in the species
as a rule.
This tail was a masterpiece of in.
genuity. It vas made of flexible steel,
and so contrived that when it took a
turn around anything it locked into
position until it was released by the
gorilla touching a spring concealed
| somewhere near his waist. The thing
worked splendidly for a long time,
until one day the gorilla put his tail
through the bars of his cage, and a
lady standing by took hold Of it:
Well, the tail acted automatically,
as usual, and of course when she felt
1t tighten around her wrist the lady
screamed. The gorilla pressed the
hidden spring to no purpose. To make
a long story short, the men standing
by came to the lady's rescue, took
hold of the tail and pulled it off!

The second story concerns a mer.
maid. She was no ordinary mermaid,
but a really high-class article" a
very handsome young woman incased
from the waist down in blue and gold
fshskin. The water in which she
smoked, and sang, and sat on a rock
combing her hair was kept tepid so
as not to give her a chill, and this
was what gave her enemies-the beau
tiful C%ircassian girl and the dwarf
a chance to injure her.
They were jealous because she at
tracted more attention than they did,
so they Matched a plot which the
dwarf carried out successfully. One
day he pretended to be ill, and got a
J day off, and just before the mermaid's
| performance he hid himself in the
boiler-room. After the man had beer
| down to see that there was not toe
big a fire, the dwarf set to and stocked
for all he was worth.
The mermaid soon felt that some
thing was wrong. but she stood it as
long as she could. At last, however
| she had to choose between being
boiled or giving the thing away, an6
naturally she preferred the latter al
