Qllicit diamond BUYING, a crime which
in South Africa is punished with penal
servitude on the breakwater at Cape
Town.
The Rand, however, has the lesser
known offense Of l. G. B. 0llictt gold
BUYING. Considering that in the Rand
mines only a few pennyweights of gold
go to a ton Of quartz, it is obvious that
the miner does not get much chance of
stealing the precious metal. When
does the gold thief get his opportunity ?
The pieces Of quartz are ground into
dust by powerful hammers known as
stamps" Water then washes the
dust over inclined plates coated with
amalgam. The gold instantly COM
bines with the mercury in the ANAL
gam, afterward being easily separated
by chemical process.
1t is of this gold laden amalgam that
the dishonest employee will scrape of
portions which, though small, will
mount up to a good bit of gold in time.

Among these things are the following:

Clever Work That Is Often f.. ... 49,.
Done by the Hopelessly Insane

] London Tit Bits: Il am sure" said
a well known mind doctor to the
writer, you would be amazed at the
clever work that is done by hundreds
Of men and ONE who are hopelessly
insane; some Of it at least as good as
that done by sane people who earn
large incomes. r.
Among my patients today is one
man whose skill with the brush would
almost surely qualify him for royal
academician rank If he were only IN
possession of his senses. There are few
Of the great exhibitions which do not
contain one Or more of his ~canvases,
and he has often received as much as
e100 for a picture. And yet this man
is as mad as a hatter,' the victim of
terrible decisions, and subject to; yio-
lent homicidal attacks.
"Naturally his work is unreliable.
One week he will produce a mastery
and beautiful picture, with genius in
every line of it. The next he will paint
nightmare in color, which, curiously
enough, he always considers a MASTER
piece. ".'
~ Mad Musicians.
"And this man is no exception, for
there are scores of lunatics who are
quite excellent artists, and many OF
them make good incomes by their art.
Some years ago an exhibition of pic
lures. the work of the insane patients
of. the Bethlem Royal hospital, was
opened to The public, and I can assure
you ma1.y of them are beautiful works
IF art. There is a mural painting Of
heroic size ove the main staircase in
one asylum in which the subject of the
Good Samaritan Is maGnificently treat
ed, and | have seen a series Of the
PASSIONS which surpass anything I
have ever seen at the Royal academy.
There are hundreds of other luna
tics who. are just as skilful in music
and literature. One of my own pa
tents, who. is hopelessly MAD on one
subject, and who is a perfect musical
genius, has composed operas, and SYM
phonies and scores of songs which
have won fame for him all over
Europe, and have brought him a smaIi
fortune. And I know of many other
insane men and women who earn
small and regular incomes in the same
way. ~. I'M .'5-
Crazy Fiction Writers.
: .tt"There are, similarly, hundreds of
the insane who make a hobby, and
sometimes a very profitable one, If
writing. Indeed, many of our asylums
have magazines. which are almost en-

enty-five years ago the first number Of
