nervousness. The tendency of modern
civilization has been to transfer the bur-
den of bread making for masses of the
people from the muscles to the nerves.
We have in many of our industries adopt
ed a policy of speeding up whereby men
do their work in less time than formerly
and with fewer intervals Of rest allowed
them i'm the workshops and therefore with
more eXactng and eXhausting calls on
their nerves.
We have been bringing up our babies
on anything but mothers milk, and by
the employment of our women in fac
tories and by giving them an unrestricted
sphere of activity have curtailed that
family life in which the child best grows
and thrives. We have subjected our
children indiscriminately to educational
processes on the path Of mechanical
obedience rather than on that of seifreal-
iZation, which, however advantageous they
may have been to some, have proved to
others the starting point in nervous de-
generation. and We have been forcing
education of multitudes of children while
half starved and incapable of mental as
smilati ion.

we must look for the explanation of the
fact that insanity holds it's own. while
its best accredited causes are on the

BERLIN, December 9.--Kaiser Wilhelm

PARIS, December 9.-The small con-
reniences of everyday life in Paris are
curiously lacking, and the latest Partisan
complaint relative to this fact is that
they suffer great Inconvenience through
the cab stations not being fitted with
telephones, as those in London are. 1t is
no unusual sight in Paris. particularly on
a wet night, to see servants running about
for a long time looking for cabs, or
women in evening dress wandering along
the streets in the hope of finding them.
NJ Lepine is trying to help the public
tsinee the telephone administration re-
fuses to fit cab stations with telephones)
by issuing an appeal to shops and cafes
near cab stations to receive cab calls by
telephone, and send them to their ad-
dresses. The appeal was issued about a
fortnight ago. but only nineteen tradesmen
have responded SO far for the whole OF
Paris.

LONDON, December S.-FrOm most
reliable source it is announced that Queen
Alexandra. until the very last. did her
utmost to persuade her son, King George,
from going to the durbar, as she has a
presentiment that he will meet with some
accident while away. The day the king
left London TO board the Hedina the
feeling of approaching disaster almost
overwhelmed the dowager queen, who
had spent a restless night, and the fear
that the people should notice her care
worn appearance was the real reason
why she did not arrive at the station
to say goodbye TO the king until a very
few minutes before the train left.
Her belated arrival affected the king so
much that his extreme nervousness while
waiting for her was generally noticed.
and for this reaso it was considered
wise to issue public statement to the
press declaring that the dowaSer queen
arrived exactly as previously arranged,
and that the arrangement was made pur-
posey so as not to prOlonS tne farewells
OF the loving mother and son Since the
kings departure Queen Alexandra, re-
ports from Sandrinsnam state, goes out

is far superior to cricket. Speaking at

Scores His Countrymen.

Following closely in the footsteps of DR..
Inge, the new dean of ST. Paul, Sir James
Crichton- Browne has now given his coun-
trymen d severe verbal roasting.
Speaking in London a few days ago.
Sir James stated that the people of Eng
land of late had unfortunately become
slipshod in much of their work. they flut-
tered from theme to theme, they had no
patience to see ii tragedy and fell back
on musical comedy. They had no stom-
ach for books. no appetite for a square
meal of literature. The Introduction OF
machinery had made life at once more
monotonous and more irritating.
"One cannot negotiate London street
crossing in these motoral days. said Sir
James without realizing by heartfelt
and nerve-jolt that alarms are not con-
fined to the battlefield of the middle ages.
We are all more vivid than We used to
be, and have to be more on the alert, and
so make sharper demands on our nerves
and are therefore more prone to nervous
ness
After giving figures relating to insanity,
Sir James said he believed they warrant
ed a belief in a portentOuS growth of
nervousness. He pointed out that almost
all the most efficient causes of insanity
were retreating, but that insanity itself
remained stationary. If indeed it was not
advancing.

says that when she was at Excelsior
Springs the man who operated the pump
at the Sloan spring told her that he had

had powder rags, from which she draws

dence has been given Of its success. In the

Manchester, which recently applied for

AS nearly as can be estimated at the
present time, the arc lights at present

rior to those which were furnished by the
private corporation, are costing about

Comparisons Showed Error.

In the very complete report which Mr..
TraffOrd presented a careful comparison
was drawn between the lighting condi-
tons in Richmond and in other cities of
the country. The private lighting COM
pany had endeavored to show that Rich
mond was securing service at far lower
rate than most cities, but in his report
Mr.. TraffOrd stated that considering the
class of lights furnished Richmond was
In reality paying an eXorbitant rate.
comparison of the cities of Chicago
and Richmond, in which an equal llumi-
nation and the same number of hours of
lighting was considered, showed that the
Chicago plant was furnishing light at
$S7.4 per light per annum, including the
cost of the plant while Richmond on the
same basis was paying 800. A COMPARE
son between Detroit and Richmond on
the Richmond basis of lighting showed
an annual cost to Detroit of SGT per light
as against $50 fo.. Richmond.
The rates for power We're shown to be
cOrrespondingly high.
Although ii was not intended to fur
nish electricity for private lighting and
such step has not been taken up to the
present time, Mr.. Traffords report show
ed that the city could furnish such cur
rent at the rate of ) or 9 cents per kilo-
watt hour as against 81 cents paid by
81 per cent of ali customers.
These figures of costs and comparisons
led to the decision to construct a munich
pal power plant to furnish electricity for
street lighting and power purposes.
