 In c novel called "The Magic Mountain" Thomas Mann presents . fine picture of the state of mind and tho character of people who have tuberculosis.
 Doctors have known for yearS that various diseaSes have different effects upon tho minds and dbpobi' tons of the persons concerned. For instance, there b & definite depreS- sion that follows A severe attack of influenza,
 There iS R form of lying and de- eeit invariably associated with Ad- dictlon to various narcotic drugs There b 6 dullneSs and tirodneSS associated with infestRtion with the hookworm.
 The mental state of . person with tuberculosis Is likely to vary accord ing to the activity of the diseaSc' Robert Louis Stevenson, the famous author, was himself c sufferer with tuberculosis, and in "rreasllre Is- land" he reflects to . considerable extent the manner in which the disease affected him.
 In . recent confederation of the subject. . British Specialist, c. C., I.earoyd, says there is one charac- teristic of the person with tubercu- i0sls which h especially note worthy--namely, that all his normal attributcA are Accentunted. Thu, thA perBon who iB generous becomes more generous; thoSo who are cheerful become more cheerful,
 There h . form of mental dis- eAge called general paresB which 1nas similar effects. The person who becomes insane with that con- eitlon, sometimes called s0ftening of the brain, greatly exaggerates ell his normal attributes. Those who arc melancholy become terribly de- pressed, and those who arc 0ptimis- tic develop extraordinary deltBlons Of grandeur.
 In the old days, when tubcrcu- iogis was not as well controlled aS { it b now, the tubercuOB person who developed fever became ale most eyangelistic ln character, fiery, active, and pressing in all his affairs. More recently, since the person with tuberculosis ia better controlled, this type Of ca6e Is seen less frequently.
 ft used Co be thought that the person with tuberculoSb was likely Co be much more interested than tle normal person In sex and sex life. Now it is recognized that these effects were due to the excess sLim- tilation that came from the poison of the germ of tuberculosis, and such eases arc not seen with the esequency in which they appeared G the past.
 Sometimes it b thought, also, hat the person who is tuberculous

EDITORIAL.

The majority of people tend to mar
their original personalities with the in
judicious adoption of current and
meaningless expressions or the acquir-
ing of inane mannerisms, which may IN
their perspective, seem decidedly
clever, but which, especially through
the weathering Of a long time endur-
ance test, are actually a bore to as
sociates. / don't wish to be quoted as

McCaulay states it well when he de-

Lord require of thee, but to do Justly

from history and the lives of public
men to show that the requirements Of
modern youth are much the same as
they were in Micahs day.
