CLEMENcEAU ANALYZED.

One of the most interesting articles OF the
month is a character sketch of Clemenceau, by Sis
ley Huddleston, in the December Atlantic. Mr..
Huddleston is the Paris correspondent Of the Lon
don Times, a position which is commonly regarded
as the very pinnacle of journalism. His article is
especially timely, and of peculiar interest in this
country because of the present American tour now
being made by one of the greatest figures in mod
ern France. In his contemplation of the remark
able career of Clemenceau he is reminded of the
statement once made to him that Ulysses was the
only complete character in the history Of fiction.
4" Ulysses" he said, was husband, father, lover.
statesman, warrior, Wanderer, poet, who OWNED
the secrets OF earth and hell, and was beloved of the
gods" Without undertaking to make detailed
comparison Mr.. Huddleston says that Clemenceau
must certainly take high and honorable place
among the exceedingly few men who have tasted
all the experiences that life has to offer, and have
revealed themselves in every capacity.
That statement is an index to the general char
sacter OF the study Of the man who, at this moment,

MENTAL DISORDERS.

In the Massac husetts Health Primer
DR.. D. Gregg has a chapter on mildI
mental Diseases In, the classification
of mental troubles by the Mental
Hygiene society, this group of disor-
ders is ranked in importance next to
the insanities.
II do not know but they are more.
important than the i~nsanities because,
they affect so many more people. The
insane are comparatively harmless be-
cause they are inactive-they are out
of things. We say that a case of
smallpox in a smallpox hospital is
harmless because it is hobbled. The
insane are hobbled. f.
On the other hand, those who suf-
fer from mild mental disorders r.
not hobbled-they are right In the
middle of things. When, as the re-
suit of their disorders, they are guilty
Of. poor judgment, when they make
wrong decisions. when they get into
jams or fail to measure up to require
ments, a lot of harm results lot of
harm to themselves, .their families,
their dependents, and even society at
large. " '65t
and what are the. mild mental dis
'OrderS which do SO much harm in the
world? They are such items as worry,
anxiety, fear. envy, jealousy, covetous-
ness, rage, insomnia and such. Dr.
Gregg says that thes6 involve the emo
tons very much more than they in
volve the intellect.

tual processes from our emotions 100

1NAUGURATED WITH MURDER

1T IS to be regretted that the formal Inaugural
ton of the Irish, Free State could not be permitted
Ito pass without murder. Two members of the Free
State parliament, one of them the deputy speaker,
were assassinated while on their way to attend the
first meeting Of that body following the official
proclamation Of the constitution of the new do1nin-
ion. 5tT3' "
The conditions which have prevailed in Ire
land are similar to those which existed in greater
or less measure, in a good many other parts of the
world in that they represent a disposition to treat
crime as something else, and a reluctance to call
things by their right ames
The right of people to change their form of gov
iernment is unqhestioned. In almost all cases
changes which are really needed can be brought
about by peaceful methods and under the forms
of law already provided. In extreme cases revolu-
tionary methods have been thought necessary, and
these have usually been attended with violence. The
justification Of such a course must lie in the demon
|strated need for action in, the absence of all other
means Of securing the desired reforms.
In thescase of Ireland there is, and there can be
no justification for the murderous activities Of a
little band of malcontents who, in the face of a
demonstrated strong popular sentiment in favor
OF proceeding under the Free State constitution,
persist in killing people from ambush, when it is
perfectly evident that all the assassinations which
they are able to- accomplish cannot bring ia: pass
any of the political changes which they profess to
seek. sG53l
In accordance with the provisions made for
such an. option the Ulster parliament has. as was
expected, voted to remain apart from the Free State.
Under all the circumstances this action at this time.
fmay be wise. There would be small prospect Of
cooperation between the two sections Of the2cour-
try n one government just now. Continued separ-
Iatipn being decided on, those in charge Of the Free
State will have an additional incentive to govern
wisely. and wells They will be working for thtes
Immediate welfare Of their own people, and for such III
|den1onstrationso f their will and ability 5to govern
well that their northern neighbors Willin due time

the United Etates, appeared in 1875.
There were no precedents for nam
ing railway cars, and so the range of
names at TIE command Of officials of
The company was practically unlimit-
ed. Names given dogs and other pets
conform largely to custom. People
and towns are named along tradition
al lines. But there was nobody to
say what sort of name was suitable
for a railway coach, and the company
took advantage of this to associate
a wide variety Of names with it's cars.
Some attempts We're, made to use
classes of names for certain .tApes of
cars. At first the parlpr cars were
given feminine names or those Of
birds or flowers. But the company
found that railroads often wanted
cars named after towns along their
lines. and this made it impossible for
an exact system to be followed. In
the first all-Pullman train running
between Chicago and New York, the
sleepers were named after countries
n the dining cars after celebrated
French chefs-Savarin, Aberlin, Mag
delin. Valentin.
Thousands of Names Needed
Though the officials who name the
cars have all the fields of literature,
history, geography, botany, and bio
graphy to search for names, christen-
ing new cars becomes a problem. The
company has 7,214 standard cars,
which means the selection Of 1874
names. And remember, parents of
families Of 10 sometimes write to the
papers for help In naming the new

SO when at was recently decided to
name some new cars for Greek and
Roman heroes an official is said to
have conducted elaborate research to
make certain that "the behavior OF
the ladies and gentlemen SO honored
was everything that it should be, ir-
respective of the customs of the e
in which they lived" Some of the
ancients who stood the test are Anti
phon, oldest Of the famous ten Attic
orators; Diogenes, Of lantern and bar
rel fame; Hesjod, a Greek poet; and
Hippocrates, father of medicine,
The company points out that Sc
quences have often developed in the
naming of cars A car named Charles
Dickens led to others being called
Pickwick, Dodson, and ,Trotwood. A
number of characters from Kipling,
Irving, ,Tennyson and Scott have been
immortalized on cars, and there are
other familiar sequences. There. is; a
Dewey and a Manila, a Columbus
and an Isabella, a Ruth and q Naomi:
The Napoleon group contains seven
names associated with him. There,
are II liquid sounding names taken
from the wine list, but to balance the
impression Of Moselle, Bourbon. and
Burgundy there are sother cars-of
more recent date, no doubt-named
