The Seat of Fear.

A French surgeon has located the
sensation of fear in a nerve which
stretches upward from the medulla
oblongata at the back of the neck in
to the cerebellum, that part of the
brain at the base of the head. The
larger and more developed this nerve,
the more timorous and melancholy is
the possessor, for it acts az a tele-
phone wire over which the alarms
are sent. With this wire cut the
craven becomes hero, for no alarms
can reach him. The doctor was led
to this conclusion, says Science Sift-
ings, by the case of man who lost
the sensation of fear after an injury
about the head, and afterward he
confirmed his theory by experiments
on animals.-New York Tribune.
New One on George Washington.
During Friday afternoon lecture
on history in Baltimore educational
institution the instructor had given a
lengthy disquisition on the character
of George Washington, incidentally
touching upon his work as an organ
izer of the Revolution.
Now" asked the instructor, IF
George Washington were alive to-day,
what practical part do you think he
would play in present day politics,
judging from the past?"
A prolonged silence on the part of
the pupils followed this Finally,
however, one lad saw way out.
Sir" he queried, wouldn't he be
too old?"-Lippincott's.

NOT TOO MUCH SLEEP.

The women who are troubled with
insomnia are few. Those who are
troubled with the desire to sleep over
time are legion.
The sleepyheads insist that VIC are
obeying the law of nature when we
satisfy the longing for just that little
nap, which always prolongs itself into
an hour or SO. Yet those who make a
study of the human body, the brain
and its needs, insist that we stultify
our energies by needless sleep; that

needs certain hours of it. One woman

MANNERs?


Would it be too much of a strain
upon our Government resources to
appoint 6 commission for the preser-
walton of manners?
There has been such mission or
gained for the preservation of our
forests. Forests are undoubtedly
natural resources, and ought to be
preserved.
But SO are manners. They con-
stitute one of the most powerful as
sets Of, a great people.
At present our manners are being
ruthlessly cut down and destroyed by
many depredators; and, among these
are some of our best people.
It is a mistake to suppose that the
highest morality is necessary for the
preservation of State What is
termed honesty is merely defensive
measure used by communities to pro-
tect them from certain individuals
who either do not rob enough, or If
they do rob enough do it in such a
candid way that it deserves to be
chastised. Every crime known in the
calendar is openly practiced by in6i-
viduals, not only in perfect freedom,
but under the protection of the State.
Among fashionable women every
form of the lie is practiced with the
utmost kill and abandon. In brief,
morality, as such, is openly violated
by every tremcr, and it has not the
remotest effect upon what is termed
progress.
But with manners it is different.
To be polite and sympathetic and So
licitous when you are robbing your
neighbor is a necessity. There are
too many instances of forgetfulness
in this respect. Our manners need
looking into. And the thing cannot
be done too soon. Life.

TRANSFERS HIS OFFICES.
Secretary MacVeagh Will Occupy
Southwest Corner Of Treasury.

Secretary MacVeaghs new offices. in
the southwest corner of the second floor
of the Treasury building, will be occu-
pied by him this week. The new offices
have been in course of preparation for
six months more. For many years
secretaries of the Treasury have occu-
pied rooms in the southeast corner of
the building, but Secretary MacVeagh
disliked the noise of that side Of the
building. A private elevator has been in
stalled for the Secretary and his assist
ants. The rooms are simply but taste
fully furnished, Mrs. MacVeagh having
taken a personal interest in this. The
rooms from which Secretary Macveagh
will move will hereafter be used for con-
ference purposes.
Another new feature at the Treasury
is the abolition of the library for the
department. 1t has been decided to keep
only such books as relate to the work OF
the department Fiction, books OF his
tory, travel, etc. will be given to the
