Barr, chief physician of U Pennsylvania school for feeble mliid td children, before the summer s-hool of philanthropy at the charities build ing, a remarkable instance, wai men tioned by him of eccentricity that haa causad comment in scientific circlea. It wai the case of an American mul timillionaire who ia living in far ast em countriea and leading a life of aueh peculiarity at to be almost hicredible, aaya a New York report. According to Dr. Karr, thii man la a neurotic. It is estimated that hia for tune ia In the neighborhood of 110, 000,000, but no attempt haa been made to have him declared incompetent; he ta left free to run hie course. Ilia family are refined and socially promi nent. Whenever they apeak of the on'a eourae, they refer to it aa hie "nervousness." They will not admit that ha haa a deranged Intellect, though ha haa left friends and posi tion here to take up a life among the "Hanine," the grave diggers and ao clal outcast of the far east. "He was a physician, rich, handsome, cultured, of aesthetic tastes," said Dr. Harr in his paper, "a graduate of one of the most prominent medical eolleges in America, and a man who bad made a pronounced hit aa a specialist. His furtune enabled him to eecure every medical appliance known to science and for aome years he en joyed phenomenal success. Wine and women proved hia bane. He sank lower and lower. Hia peculiarities no longer tolerated at home, he drifted from capital to cnplinl of Eu rope, and finally established himself In Japan. With an appetite still un satisfied, he exhibited new phases of moral degeneration, causing his body to be tattooed with wonderful skill, every picture a work of art. His back bore a huge drngon, the ahadlng of every scale showing per fection of detutl. Tli is, on revisiting America, with utmost vanity he shamelessly exposed. lie was turned out of the clubs. Returning to Japan, he bought a performing bear and wandered from place to place elad In the garb of Uanln, exhibiting himself awl hia bear, and distributing photographs of eaoh and all in endless variety. "This master of eccentricity," said Dr. Ilarr, "shocking both Euroim and America, and astounding even Jap anese next hired a sijuad of Japan ese boys, practically buying them outright from thair parents, who, at tired In full uniform, are trained in military exercises. To these are op posed an equal number of monkeys, dressed aa Chinese soldiers, and the war of China and Japan ia constantly renewed for Die entertainment of him self and his aatelltea, who watch In the testacy nf delight the suffering of the poor brutes. Kewards are of fered, and the more bloody the eon teat and the greater the atrocities, tba mora Intense the gratification." TCI. C. Z. n. Column J A Mother' Story.

A Nervous Woman Will often feel compelled to aton the clock whose ticking seems unbearable to her. In such a nervous condition the woman needs a building up of the entire system. It is useless to attempt the cure while the cause of the nervous ness remains un cured. A very common cause of nervousness in women ia a diseased condi tion of the delicate womanly organism. Ir. Pierce's Favorite Prescription cures womanly diseases and the nervousness which they cause. It changes irregularity to regular ity, dries the drains which weaken women, beats Inflammation and ulceration and cures female weakness. It is a perfect tonic and nervine, traiujuiliziiig the nerves, promoting the appetite and in ducing refreshing sleep.

IS A PERILOUS CALLING Difficttltiet and Dinger. Met With In Bridge-Bulldlng. Mammoth Steel Majewa tut Be Win. lata tke Dlssy Hr.elarM wttb MathematleiBl Aeeer- j Mr X All Time. t The design of a long bridge span is one of the most elaborate mathemat ical problems that arises in construe- ( tlve work. The stresses produced by Its own weight, by the weight of traf Hc, by locomotive drivers, by the hinn merlng of flattened wheela, by the action of brakes on an express triiin, by the high speed of a curved truck, by the wind and by the expansion ami contraction of the steel in summer and winter, are all accurately calcu lated. The definition of the loaded t and unloaded bridge is determined,: anil complete drawings nre miule of every member of It The bnrs of steel are tested in machines which will pull In two a horsehair or a steel bar strong enough to lift half a score of j the heaviest locomotives at once, and which will crush an egg-shell or a I steel column, and accurately measure the atreas In each case. The differ ent kinds nf members nre forced, riv eted, bored or pinned In perhaps half a doren remote simps, and although usually not fitted together there, are examined and measured by special ists to see that they are correct, and are then shipped by scores of car loads to the site of the proposed structure, where steam derricks un load them and pile them many feet high In stacks covering acres of ground. The huge piers may riae above the water, hundred of feet apart. It re mains to place on them a I.OOO-ton struct lire, high above a savnge chasm, over an impassable current or roar liifc tide, where the water is deep, the bottom of jagged rocks, or trencher-1 ous quicksand, or where nn old bridge j must be removed and the new one built In its place without interrupting i navigation or obstructing continuonal trafllc. ou the bridge. To accomplish I this the engineer hns timber, bolts and ropes, hoisting engines, derricks, and a band of intrepid builders, who have perhaps followed him for yenrsi through more hardship nnd danger than fall to the lot of almost any other calling, writes Frank W. Skin ner. In Century. The complicated framework of a great span is a skeleton with many accurate joints and thousands of steel sinews and bones, each nf which must go in exactly the right place in ex actly the right order. The builder must, weave into the trusses pieces larger, heavier and far more index ible than whole tree-trunks: swiftly hoist and swing them to place hun dreds of feet high: fit togelher the massive girders ami huge forged bars with watchmaker's accuracy; support the unwieldy masses until they are keyed together and snlf-anMuiniug; and under millions of pounds of si ress must adjust them, at divy heights, to mathematical lines. This he may need to do, not deliberately In a com fortable shop or on a solid platfcrm, but In dangerous emergencies at ut most speed, putting forth his whole strength on narrow, springing planks In a furious tempest, in bitter cold or In hlaiug heat, lie may be In the heart of an frlran desert, menaced by blood thirsty fanatics, or in a gorge of the Amies, hundreds of miles from tools or supplies, where, there ia absolutely no supplement to his own resources. I'ndcr such conditions bridge building Is one of the most fascinating and ditneutt of engineer ing problems, and requires a differ ent solution for almost every case. Irlt1iit rutin, on Florida.
