It is plain from thoso facts that our schools havo already greatly reduced tho amount of crime, nnd that when wo shall havo suc ceeded in getting rid of all illiteracy wo will still further reduco tho number of criminals.

After leading her son, Charles the Mnth, by tho nose for many yearn, she poisoned him through the mime organ. All the liorglas were also ox- porta in this branch of demonism In tho middle ngos, however, poison was u much srtfor weapon than It h now. Then the most accomplished chomlstsof tho world manufactured It far tlin worst. ni.rr.nsoR. Thn mnn of noionto who had produced a new nnd subtle pliiller, warranted to kill with out convulsing, was suro to obtitln a splendid douceur for his secret from some prince or noblo or lady of high degree, who, to use the clnssic language of u modern murderess, wanted to "cook somebody's goose." Hut nowadays these things aro not managed as they wore in the Medlcean and Horglan eras. Thcro wero no post-mortem examina tions in the olden time. All tho re sources of chemistry wore then directed to the destruction of life, and never, as at present, to the detection of tho means by which it was destroyed. It is next to impossible for n modcrr poisoner to evade punishment. The symptoms which follow tho adminis tration of all deadly drugs and chemic- rtlH aro familiar to the whole medical profession. Analysis, like an avenging Ncmosis, confronts tho perpetrator with tho proof of his crimo. The stom ach of tho dead victim is a more potent witness against tho criminal than spec ters wero supposed to bo ugainst the 'secret men of blood, four hundred years ago. V e need no "choughs and inagotpies to bring tho deed of the poisonmongor to light. The flesh, not the ghost, of tho dead appears from the grave, and consigns him to the gallows. Hut in spito of tho perils, nlmost un- escapable, with which science has sur rounded the crimo of poisoning, it is. as our criminal records too foamim- show, on the increase. Recently there has been what tho police call a "run of it, and wo can think of no method better adapted to check Its progress than that of showing it to bo, as it real ly is, more easy and moro certain of de tection than almost any other variety of murder. x.

If ono will' take tho troublo to g through tho names of most of th bravest peoplo in history, he will fine that they nearly all suffered from somi suporstitlon or other. Napoleon IJona parte was simply oaten by supersti tions, &.nd so was tho tluko of Marl borough. Literary mon havo alwayf been notoriously superstitious, from tho days of Dr. Johnson, who would gi back half a milo if ho remembered thai ho had omitted to touch any one oi tho lampposts on his daily walk, t( Dean Swift, who would never change a garment if ho found that ho had put it on Inside out, and Lord Byron who would get up und leavo a dinnei party Instantly if anybody spilt the salt. Statesmen have not been ex empt from buperstltlonB cither. Lord flenconsflold would always tako espe cial care to enter the house with his right foot foremost when ho was going to mako a big speech. Mr. Parnell had a strong prejudice against sitting in a room with three candles. William Pitt would return home at once, however important his business, if ho met a cross-eyed man in the street, whilo Sii iiobert I'eel would nlways make tin- sign against the evil oye with his fin Ters and thuub under similar olrcum- atanues. Snake Charminir. In India and Africa tho charmers pretend the snakes dance to the music, but they do not, for thoy never hear It. A snake has no external ears, and perhaps gets ovldenco of sound onh through his skin, when sound causeh bodies in contact with him to vibrate They hear also through the norvos of the tongue, but do not at nil coniprc- hond sound as we do. But the snake's eyes nra very much alive to the motion' of the charmer, or to the moving drnm-.ticks) of his confederate, and, bc- itr- raed, ho prepares to strike.
