Runs on SAVINGS Banks

Strong savings banks in New York
and Boston are now recovering from
senseless runs started as the result
of idle and unfounded rumors. Here
is peril that menaces not merely
any solvent institution, but all bank
depOsitors as we'll.
Any solvent bank could be made in
solvent, if the depositors in some mo.
ment of madness storm its doors and
demand their cash in an instant. Con
ditions are like those in public hall,
where people are killed and injured
merely because because some fool
jumps up and yellS Fire.
Plans are being drawn for a big
addition to the congressional library
building, to make for the works now

of that kind, but he stood near first
as if paralyzed, never moving, never

falling ball. Mathewson, almost pale,
came sprinting desperately in. Merkle
still stood as if in trance, while the
ball fell to earth ten feet in front of
Mathewson's outstretched hands.
They say, since then, that Mathew
son claimed the ball when first it was
hit and that Merkle obeyed. Perhaps
Mathewson in a glance saw Merkle's
condition and tried to save himself
and his team.

and down, screaming gibes and
taunts.

MerkIe stood dazed and the ball fell
to the ground without a man near it.

METALS THAT GROW TIRED

Like human beings, metals get tired
with over-working and needs a holiday
and complete rest in order to recover
from the strain and rush of modern
life. 1t was Lord Kelvin who showed
that metals suffer from fatigue. He
kept iron wires in constant motion
during a week, and watched the way
they acted. AT the end of the week
they had lost a considerable amount OF
their original elasticity. He gave
them a days rest, and they complete
ly recovered. He further experiment
ed, and discovered that an iron bar,
after a three weeks rest, gained ten
per cent. in elasticity. In repeated ex-
periments he found that steel and
wrought iron deteriorited very rap
idly IL they we're worked continuously,
and, In the long run, break up COM
pletely, as the human being does.

HUMANS AS BAR0METERS

Many human beings are VIGOROUSLY
sensitive not merely to the weather
of today, but also to the weather of
tomorrow. Arthritic, rheumatic! and
neuralgia patients need no barometer
or weather map to tell them when bad
weather is approaching. Old wounds
give trouble at such time, and men,
bers long since amputated reassert
their power to cause pain. These phe-
nomena are SO well known that it
would be sheer faulty in any scien-
tifc man to deny them, merely be-
cause he cannot understand them; yet,
strangely enough, they have been the
subject of very little systematic inves-
tigation. A special case under this
general head is the extreme sensitive
ness of some persons to the approach
of thunderstorms. The pathological
condition experienced by such persons
before a thunderstorm must not be
confused with ordinary dread of thun-
der and lightning. In fact, this con-
dition often comes on before there
are any ordinary indications of the
storms approach. and the symptoms
commonly subside before the storm is
over
Attention was called to this condi-
ton some years ago by DR.. G. M.
Beard, and it was given the name of
"astraphobia" Cases of it's occurrence

CAD WHIP OF CASTOR

Here Is the .verger OF the ancient
church of Castor, Lincolnshire. Eng
land, holding the CAD whip which for
many years was cracked on Palm
Sunday. Legend says the curious
fashion of cracking cad whip dates
back to Saxon times, and arose In
this way: The lord of the manor OF
Broughton, in Lincolnshire. held land
under the lord of the manor Of Hun
den, near Castor; he was cruel and
hard man, and having caught boy
trespassing he beat him so severely
with a CAD as to cause his death.
After time he became so remorseful
that he confessed his crime. and the
following punishment was melted out
to him: He was annually to provide
a whip like that with which the boy
was beaten, and purse containiny
30 pieces of silver. With these he
must repair to Castor church on
Palm Sunday morning and, standing
outside the north porch, must crack
the whip three times at the begin
ming OF the second lesson. After this
he was to fasten the purse to the end
Of the lash and twist it round the
end of the stock, fastening the same
with three twigs of wych elm; then,
with whip ON shoulder, he was to walk
slowly into church, kneel before the
reading desk and wave the whip
thrice over the head of the officiating
minister, then continue to hold ii in
that position until the lesson was end
ed. After this the whip-bearer was
to rise and to take the whip into the
pew of the lord of the manor of Hun
den and remain there till the end or
the service. Finally, the whip was
carried to the house of his liege lord
Of Hunden and left there. On the due
performance of this ceremony his ten
ure of the manor of Broughton was to
depend. The whip was to suggest the
scourging that Christ bore for sin
ners; the money symbolized the
pieces Of silver paid to Judas for the
betrayal of his saviour; cracking the
whip denoted that the weapon was

used for inflicting pain; carrying the
money into church was to bring to
mind the action of repentant Judas
when he cast down in the temple the
thirty pieces OF silver; holding the
betokened Gods guardian care over
his people; and the final depositing
OF the whip and purse, first in the
pew, then in the hands of the lord
of Hundon, symbolized the text:

that are Gods" The whip was last
