'Ill T 1 ....! sh--!s and bhuikets. hhxeept for this y. :: o.'.i.uity the boy was. held in the highest -ti:;i -tion. In 1S24, a well-known citizen of a French city killed two children in the v ' ds in the TvSer.cc of the'r mo;h t. Y.'hen 'laced in jail he attempted to kill his f ;!. v prisoners and to burn the jail. After a carefully conducted trial he was found guilty of murder and executed. The plea of iii.s ii'ity had been entered in the defense, b t. it was entire1 v disregarded. Many o her eases 'were cited from the jurisprn- d :t.-v i.-f Fr.ince, showing the ioree 01 habit i:i causing men to repeat certain crimes. ::e woman, known as a good, kind-hearted lo-.t'icr and neigh'-or, murdered twenty- i e i c:v ht ersons bv poison beiiire being detect ; another hail killed iifrecn. In neither e was any reason assigned. The mur- d r...;s were actuated by an impulse which had become a part of their physical being. O.ie or t!.e m- st remartable cases was tliat of Jessie Poiueroy, ' the boy with the vrhite eve," whose horiihle brutautics per ...:t rated uj'on lirtle boys in Boston, marked j.iin as a oeriect liend.

He attributed the range actions of this class of" jieople to various causes. Ipidemies of suicide and va irder were p-.-rhups as much produced hy tiie desire of imitation as by anything else. ( ::e of his former fellow students recently committed suicide by severing the femoral artery, a method almost unheard of. With ia two weeks two other men killed them- k.'Ivcs in the same way. One of these was I i i t;u. c Wells, the. discoverer of anaesthetics In closiucr, the Doctor laid it down a er.rjutial that certain monomaniacs should be oemanentlv restrained : that those who 1 net under an uncontrollable impulse for pleasure should be treated just as sane 1 1 iiuitials are : for it we excuse crime on the saire of morbid impulse we thall soon find courts unnecessary. The plea of "morbid impulse'' should be entirely disregarded by tne u:ry. Interesting to Housekeepers. The following valuable recipe for de str.ivin'jc insects, which we take from the I iston Janriuil of Chemistry, will interest housekeepers especially at this season of tne year : Take two pounds of alum, and dissolve it in three or lour quarts of boiling water ; let it stand upon the fire until the alum disappears ; then apply it with a brush, while nearly hot, to every joint and crevice in your closets, bedsteds, pantry shelves, and the like. Brush the crevices in the fijor of the skirting or mop-boards, if you suspect that they harbor vermin. If, in whitewashing a ceiling, plenty of alum is added to the lime, it will also serve to keep insects at a distance. Cockroaches will ilee the paint which has been washed down in cool alum water. Sugar barrels and boxes can be freed from ants by drawing a wide chalk mark just round the edge of the top of them. The mark must be un broken, or they will creep over it ; but a continuous chalk mark, half an inch in width, will set these depredators at naught. Powdered alum or borax will keep the chinz-bug at a respectable distance, and travelers should always carry a package of it in their hand-bags to scatter under and over their pillows in places where the' have any reason to suspect the presence of such bed lcllows. Johnny B., aged five, asked his father if lie knew why the stars were made. The lather thinking the lad had conceived some queer notion as to the use of the heavenly bodies : 'No, do you ?' 'Yes, it never rains when the stars shine, so they must be made to plug up' the rain holes.' ." . 15IATCH LEY'S '2 - g 1-nrurc.l 1 IVUMUr.R WOOD I tj PUMP. T.i-iHess.
