illamook CURIOUS PLEASURE. Sympathy That May Bs Excited by • Paroxyam of Hysterica. Some persona derive pleasure from receiving sympathy, and thia often causes them, especially if they are women who have suffered some afflic tion. to affect a very demonstrative grief, its paroxysms timed with shrewd ly selfish cunning so as best to attract the attention and secure the sympathy of those about them. Often from be ing simulated or exaggerated these fits become real. And there are other persons who de rive a strange satisfaction from excit ing the anxiety and eveD tb^ distress of their friends. This is not uncom mon among small children, who are, however, easily cured by ignoring their outbursts. Petting them makes them worse. Hysteria in young women is often simulated. In his work on "The Influence of Education on Diseases of the Nervous System” Dr. Carter says: “When once a young woman has dis covered her power to produce a hysteric paroxysm at will and has exercised it for her own gratification without re I gard to the anxiety or annoyance it may entail on her friends a very re markable effect is speedily produced upon tbe whole mental and moral na ture. Tbe pleasure of receiving un wonted sympathy once tasted excites a desire for it that known no bounds.” —New York World. ESCAPED THE MADHOUSE. Daguerre’s First Photograph Came Just In the Nick of Timo. If old Mme. Daguerre bad been as quick to act aa she wes to suspect, Louis Jacques Daguerre might have ended bis days in an Insane asylum, and tbe world might have waited a century longer for a means of preserv ing family likenessea ou bits of paper or glass. Up to tbe early thirties of tbe last century M. Daguerre had behaved as any well balanced decorator and scene painter and steadygolng busband should nave behaved, and then he be gan to experiment with liquids and at tempted to fasten sun shadows on glass or copper sheets. He talked of a wonderful day when be could make portraits of bis friends without either brush or pencil. In great trepidation Mme. Daguerre hurried to a doctor and, weeping, told tbe medical man these symptoms. To the doctor's discerning mind they spelled nothing less than insanity, and In 1838 they set about preparing M. Daguerre for a visit to tbe asylum at Blcetre. But just then tbe unsuspecting vic tim of this plot succeeded in fastening tbe shadow on the copper plate, and tbe art of photography was born.— New York Sun. I I i i Ths Makings of a Diplomat. A Laboucbere anecdote Is given tn the volume of recollections by Sir Henry Lucy (Toby. M. Pj, to whom it was told by Labby himself. It con cerned the younger son of a peer, who thought that a berth tn the diplomatic service was as desirable a place as any for one who took life rather easily. He knew nothing of the special sub jects upou which tbe preliminary ex amination was based, but there was at least tbe promise of a lark. As far as be could make out, he did not supply a single correct answer to the long list of questions, ------ Nevertheless he came out first in the competition, it was a surprise even for a confident young lordliug. Meeting “ " one of the exam- iners nt dinuer a few days later, he ventured 1 to ask how the thing came about ' "We at once saw you knew nothing," ” was the reply. “ "But 1 your manner was so free from constraint under what to some people would have beeu peculiarly embarrassing circum stances that we said to each other, 'That's the very man to make a diplo matist' So we gave you a start on your career.” 1 The Dangerous Age. As the thirties slip behind him the wise man will train himself to realize that the "good old days" when be could do exactly as be liked and not pay for It have gone forever. Gone are tbe days when fatigue from extra work and loss of sleep speedily passed off when the stress of work had ended. At forty recuperation takes longer. Both brain and body when once thor oughly overworked and tired out are likely to remaiu below par for days or weeks. Tbe body may not be in the least diseased, but it Is not so strong as it once was and requires more thought and care. Tbe reason that so many men suffer from ill health in tbe fifties is that they neglect these signs nnd live throughout tbe dangerous age at the same pace and with tbe same waste of vital energies as in the twen ties. Tbe abuse their systems receive in the “dangerous years” leave them with no reserve stamina and vigorous health to support them into a bale nnd hearty old age.—London Family Her- aid. Headlight, June 6, IÖI3 WAIL OF THE DONKEY. Harken to It In China if You Want to Tremble In Terror. In all tbe east today tbe donkey is a favorite means of transportation both for travelers and merchandise. It was so iu tbe days of tbe patriarchs Isaac and Jacob, says the Louisville Courier- Journal. and so it will probably re main for ages to come. But uotbing io China is just like the same thing anywhere else in the world, and tbe donkey is no exception. Dr. Chester of Nashville, who while evangelizing in Arkansas In his young er days had become familiar with the easy amble of tbe long eared American species, was induced to make trial of tbe Chinese type during a visit to China a few years ago. His experi ence was disappointing. Tbe gait was a rough. Insufferable jog, and the characteristic bray was a painful phenomenon in tbe realm of sound. Dr. Chester reports his impressions as follows: "Tbe power of heredity, working through millenniums of Isolation, with no modification from foreign admix ture, has developed in the bray of tbe Chinese donkey a quality all its own. There are no words In English to de scribe tbe heartrending pathos of it It was as if an appeal to heaven against the cruelty and oppression of ages were at last finding utterance in one long. loud, undulating walL And when our party of three met another party of six and all nine of the don keys began at one time to exchange the compliments of the day then pa thos gave place to terror, and you could only sit. appalled and trembling, as the mighty reverberation rolled away on its journey round tbe world.” I Toward even Ing the lazy man begin* to be busy —Greek i’roierh. , HOW TO GROW STRONG. The Eight Natural Exercise* Give the Best Physical Culture. it is not logical for a man to swing in tbe air banging on two rings by his bands, according to George Hebert, a French naval lieutenant who has de voted himself to tbe study of physical culture. Such exercise demands ab normal efforts, which must be harmful | because they do not respond to any ne cessity. For the same reason it Is poor gym nastics to raise and hold the arm in tbe air while holding tbe rest of the body motionless Tbe result of such action is incomplete development Tbe arm should be exercised by throwing some thing. by climbing or by boxing, and the legs should be exercised by run ning or swimming. because these essen tially natural movements have a happy reaction on tbe whole organism. A particular movement may be inter esting in the case of invalidism when tlie subject Is capable of ordinary ex ercise. but when people are in bealtb and anxious to become strong there is only one means of obtaining physical improvement and only one form of ef ficacious physical culture. That Is to carry out such exercises as were imposed by nature upon the men of the forests and such as are in use now among savages. These are walk ing. running, leaping, climbing, lifting. jumping, boxing and smimming. All the obligations of primitive life have a place In these eight natural exercises.— Harper's Weekly. Three Ideas of Nothing, In an Irish school not long ago a schoolteacher asked a class to define "nothing.” He wrote the question on tbe blackboard and did so quickly and rather carelessly. A little red beaded fellow's band shot up. I “Well, Tliady, what Is nothing?” I said the teacher. “You may tell us.” "It's the dot on tbe 1 ye’ve just for gotten to make, sori" was the trium phant reply. An equally good definition was thnt of tbe lad who declared that nothing was "a footless stocking without a leg." He. too, was Irish.

Tbe duke, however, bad uot tbe pluck to stop tbe tipping practice. Lord Taafe, a general officer In the Austrian service, did wbat he could. He always attended bls guests to tlie door. When they put their hands Into their pockets be said: "No. If you do give It, give it to me, for it was I who paid for your dinner." To Sir Timothy Waldo must be given tbe credit of putting an end to tbe monstrous practice» After dinner with tlie Duke of Newcastle be put a crown iuto the cook's hand, it was rejected. “1 do not take sliver, sir.” "Very good.

An eastern alienist told the Mental Hygiene socletj' that if worry could be eliminated the number of our insane would be decreaased by 40 per cent. His assertion is corroborated by other experts. Tbe diagnosis, one sees, Is delightful ly simple, but tbe remedy is bard to apply. Worry is of two sorts—that which conies from within and that which is imposed from without Tlie nervous specialist treats the first and mental suggestion succeeds In a cer- tain proportion of cases. As for the worry incident to our mad scramble to survive, the doctors we look to in that case are tlie economists and the so clologlsts. The problem of the nerve specialist Is not an easy one, but it looks almost simple when compared with the problem of the economists. Both sets of doctors are making bend way. and at present we may look for much improvement In our insanity sta tistics. So let us not worry about worry, but work to remove its causes.
