1.-THE STRANGE CASE
OF MARY PAGE"
Copyright 1915 by the Mcclure publications.

"HOw long after the night at DIR.
cellars sanatorium did Miss Page
remain in your hospital?"
ut was nearly three weeks before
she was able to go, and even then ii
was with some trepidation that I con-
scented to her leaving
Did you fear a return of-her-ill-
ness 2"
Yes. l knew that excitement or
nervous strain of any sort would have
an injurious effect, and I warned both
Mrs. Page and Mr.. Langdon to protect
her as much as possible"
''Dr. Foster, did you ever see David
Pollock after the night he took Miss
Page to Zellar's?"
Yes. L saw him again on the day
when Miss Page left my sanatorium."
will you tell us the circumstances
of that second meeting, please?"
Miss Page and her mother and Mr..
Langdon were just about to leave, in
order to take a train to New York
when Mr.. Pollock drove up to the SAN
atorium in his motor. 1 was very in
dignant at his daring to come to the
hospital after what had occurred, and
asking the Pages and Mr. Langdon to
go into my office and wait, I went to
the door myself and peremptorily or
dered Mr.. Pollock to leave the grounds
He refused to CO. saying that he had
something of great importance to say
to Miss Page. He would not, he
said, ask to see her alone, but it was
his right to see her if he wished,
because their engagement had not
been broken. l felt that in the cir
cumstances it was best to let him see
Miss Page and receive his dismissal.
So took him into the office"
Did Miss Page show any distress
at sight of him?"
Yes. She gave a little cry almost
of fear and chung to her mother, and
would not answer his greeting"
What did Mr.. Pollock say?"
He said, You have no reason to
shrink from me like that, Mary. At
worst what I have done has been
ised to marry me- and so far that
promise had not been taken back, and
now / have come to know what you
are going to do. 1t seems to me that
we ought to be married at once-as-
as-I have information that your ia
theirs death has left you-Without-e-

be glad to give you. I have waited
for three weeks for some word from
you, and now have come to claim

EPISODE VII.
Stage Aspirations.

Not since the famous trial that sent
the expression brain storm" spinning
down through the years, has the tes-
timony of an alienist so greatly STIR
red an excited world as did the
phrase Progressed Psychosis," with
which DR.. Foster summed up the tenn
porary insanity of Mary Page.
1t spread through the court and the
throngs in the corridor; it sped over
the telephone wires to the waiting
newspapers of the city, and by Asso
ciated Press to other papers in every
state. Editorial writer's delved for
the works of Balm, Fechner Helm
hOltz and MunSterberg; and the more
learned searched the records of Psy-
chOphYSics and recalled the fact from
their college days that it came from
the Greek words Mature" and Soul"
Before long it even reached the zenith
of publicity and became the inspira-
ton of the cartoonists, but all this
was after that day when DR.. Foster,
once more upon the witness stand
told with technical brevity of how
prenatal influence. increased by fear
and suffering, reacted upon the deli
cate brain tissues under the strain of
a great shock.
Much of what he said was entirely
unintelligible to the excited audience.
1t was therefore with a little rustling
sigh of relief that they heard Langdon
abruptly change his line of question
ing and say:

The number of otherwise intelli-s
gent, conscientious people who fall
into the habit of talking in the pres
ence of their children about the lat
ter just as if they were incapable of
understanding the English language
is thing which is perenniaIly aston
ishing to me.
They tell about the childs love af-
fairs and then they wonder that he
learns to be shy about matters of sem
timent and to form the habit of never
taking his parents into his confidence
on such Matters habit which may
cause much unhappiness some day
Not the Children But Themselves
Who Arc to Blame.
They chronicle the child's bright
sayings and then are displeased and
censorious when he becomes smart
and seIf-conscious.
They exploit the child's thoughts
about death and God and all the mys-
teries about which, after all, we know
little more than they, and then won
der that the child learns to lock up
the secret places of his heart against
them.
1T is as if we roughly pulled open a
delicate flower and then complained
when we found the petals were
bruised and married.
To see a child's mind unfold is like
the development of a beam
-iful flower, only infinitely more
fascinating. Let us be careful bou,

and our exploitation upon these won.

trial she admits she had the revolver.
Her maid testifies that Mary threat
ened Pollock with it previously, and
Mary's leading man duplicates Lang
don. How Mary disap peared from
the scene Of the crime is a mystery.

he saw on Mary's shoulder. Further

The defense is "repressed psychosis."

The Bruise d Flower

In the hearing of her little son a
mother told me this story:
What do you think-Roger has the
greatest faith in his prayers He
wanted to lick the cake-dish and I
wouldn't let him. | told him | was
afraid it would make him sick. And
what do you think he said? oh, no,
1t can't, mother, because I'm praying
God every night to keep me WE'LL"
The mother laughed heartily at
this naive expression of a simple
faith and the child looked at US with
an expression in which the bewild-
cred, the supicious and the embar-
raised were oddly and pathetically
mixed.
I'VE Laugh at the Child Who Digs
Up His Seeds Butt
When a child plants a seed and
then digs it up again in a few days to
see if it is growing, we laugh at him
with groWn-up superiority.
Wasn't the mother of that little boy
doing something just as childish, just
as defeating?
She implanted a faith in her child's
heart by teaching him to pray to God
and telling him that his prayers
meant something. And then, by
laughing at his trusting acceptance of
her teachings, she dug up the seed
she herself had planted.
Of course that child's faith in
prayer was shaken by what he heard.
He is an intelligent child and neither
deaf nor blind.
Can't Understand English.

emerge from the ground and crawl up
the tree trunks to the small tWigs,
where the eggs are deposited. With
the expanding Of the, leaves the eggs
hatch and the striped measuring
worms or caterpillars begin eating the
foliage. If the worms are abundant
and no attempt is made to control
them the trees may be entirely de-
foliated. When the branches are jar
red the caterpillars let themselves
down by silken thread.
The caterpillars are most easily kill

is important that the infested trees be
sprayed as soon as the tiny newly
Matched larvae begin feeding. and at
this time it is necessary to observe
quite closely in order to find them.

Raise All Sorts Of Flowers.


There will be no dearth Of flowers
hereafter in this country, especially of
those which were formerly grown in
Europe and the demands for which
were very strong among flower enthu-
siasts. This is the summing up of the
results Of the war situation in Europe
by the Retail Florists association.
New floral industries are flourishing
in the southern states now, and plants
heretofore grown in southern France
and southern and northern Italy and
imported to America are now being
grown in the south. In a short time,
it is stated, the European product will
be forced out of the American market
! entirely The American public, which
idolizes flowers, can now get almost
everything home grown. and, though
the change has been brought about by
war conditions. florists have been
caught the lesson that what at one
zine they believed was impossible is
now easy Of solution.
