Dr. En rico Serafini. has been trying to find out why women have nerves, and after thorough studies in Europe he came to the United States to seek the secret here. He has answered the question promptly. The woman with all the di version she wants has so much more than she needs that she Is beaded straight for the miseries of neuras thenia. Neurasthenia in its scientific perfec tion was found by Dr. Serafini to pre vail among American women of wealth and refinement. It is worse in Washington than ii Ne.- Yrk be cause Washington's activities are al most wholly social, whilrNc-v York in spite of its tremendctifs';3T!?h of en ergy tnfxes business ar& 'pi-insure so thoroughly that people h?ve;ss chance to stiff er the monotouy of continual amusement. Our very phase of neurasthenia is peculiar. The Latin races become so exhausted that they ore limp with las situde; the pure Saxons grow utterly dull and torpid; the Americans are oyerstimulated. as though they must keep going on faster and faster. The best thing to do with these human comets is to condemn them to such absolute rest and silence that they won't even think. "The fundamental trouble that lies back of a good deal of American neu rasthenia." Dr. Serafini says, "Is the lack of resource for genuine diversion on the part of both men and women. It goes back to their enrly education." heirs or devisees of Hamilton 1I11. de ceased.

When one opens lt-and most visitors to the spe cialist do a smaller box is found and one not so large inside that. Tbs continues until finally the last Is reached, a tiny thing with n slip of paper Inside it. On the paper is a sin gle word, "Curiosity." "I keep It there to amuse waiting patients." explained the uiM?cialist. "If there was only one who went through the scale .of boxes he might feel sore about it. but he or she leaves the box closed for the next comer, and when there are quite a few in tho waiting room It gets to be a pretty good Joke, and I can hear laughter as the latest arrival gets stung. 1 picked the box up on a trip to India and hap pened to leave it in the waiting room one day. Now it stays there all the time." New York Sun. New Kind of Screw. The coniraon screw has a slot across the bead, which soon fills with dirt and rust, making It hard to unscrew in the wood. A new kind substitutes a square socket in the head of the screw to take the place of the slot. Of course the common screwdriver has to be changed to -aect this altera tion and is provided with a square driving point that fits the new socket. It prevents 'he tool slipping and scratching the woodwork, and many other advantages are claimed for the new arrangement. Gulf of Mexico. The gulf of Mexico Is about ten times the size of Lake Superior and about as large' as the sea of Kamchatka, bay of Bengal, China sea, Okhotsk or Japan. Lake Ontario would go in, each of them more than fifty times. LIFE INSURANCE. $563,440,000 Paid In United States and Canada In 1910.
