Why Hindoos Don't Go Mad.

Why are there so few lunatic asy
lurns and so small a proportion of In.
sane persons In India? That IL ques-
ton which many traveller has won
deringly asked. The Hindoos regulate
their lives entirely in accordance with
their religion-that Is. their working.
eating. sleeping. as well as what we
usually regard as our life" In the re-
ligious sense of the word Everything
is arranged for them. and they follow
the rules now just as they did 1000
years ago. This constant observance
Of the same rules for twenty centuries
has nodded the brains Of the race into
one shape. as 1t were. and. although
their rites are queer enough. yet there
Is but an occasional example of that
striking deviation from the common
which is called insanity In countries
inhabited by the white race. They are
fatalists too. With them 1t is a case
Of what is to be will be" carried to
the extreme. This has in time given
them the power to take all things
calmly and so freed them from the
anxiety that drives so many white
men into the lunatic asylums.

Thought II Was the MONKEYS.

A diamond necklace was possessed
by Nine. Godfrey de st. Hilare, the
wife of the famous French naturalist
1t was one of the chiefest of her 'con-
tentments," as Hindoo women aptly
term their jewels. One day madame
missed her necklace. There was a ter
rible' turmoil in the house, and all the
servants down to the foolish fat soul
lion were suspected. but in turn proved
their innocence. At last it was remem-

eral cigar ends. a pencil case and de-
composed apple. The renowned nat
uralist calmly observed that he had
frequently seen the monkey playing
with the necklace. "Why did you not
take it from him" Indignantly asked
his spouse. II thought it belonged to
him." replied M. de st. Hilare. He ev-
identity thought there was nothing un-
natural in an ape possessing diamond
necklace as his personal property.

The Monasteries of Tibet.

Every Tibetan family is compelled
to devote its firstborn male child to
monastic life. Soon after his birth
the child is taken to Buddhist mon
astery to be brought up and trained in
priestly mysteries. At about the age
of eight he joins one of the caravans
which travel to Lassa. There he Is at
tached to one Of the local monasterieS,
where he remains as q novice until he
is fifteen, learning to read the sacred
books and perform the religious rites
of his faith. The firstborn son, being
thus sent into the church, as we
should say in this country. the second
becomes the head Of the family
and marries. Unlike some other semi
civilized races. these young Tibetans
have the right of choosing their own
wives. Nor can a Tibetan girl be
married off by her parents without her
own consent. The curious custom in
regard to the eldest sons results of
course. In nearly every Tibetan family

Slow but InexorabIe Justice.

In October, 1900. Pietro Giaconi and
Marie Bonelli were tried at Rome on
charge of sextuple murder by poi
soning committed thirty-one years be-
fore. In England Eugene Aram was
hanged for the murder Of Clarke four
teen years after the offense. A man
named Horne was executed for the
murder Of his child in the eighteenth
century no less than thirty-fve years
after the offense. There Is also the
well known case of Governor Wall,
who was executed in 1902 for muir
der committed in 1852. Sherward was
hanged at Norwich for the murder of
his wife after lapse of twenty years.
But Sir FitZjames Stephens recalls
what is the most remarkable case of
all. He prosecuted as counsel for the
crown in 1868 a man who was charged
with stealing leaf from parish reg
lister sixty years before-that is, in
1903 In this case the prisoner was
cquitted.-London Standard.
