For over thirty years ahe had been seen by none, her meals bav ins been left outside her room to be taken in when no one was by; and It was only through her neglecting to do this for three consecutive dys that apprehenalon as to her safety was aroused. The door of her room was forced and she was found dead on her bed. The reason for her eccentric conduct never transpired. An equally mysterious recluse dwelt In a Kentish town. A trusted civic employe, he one morning quit his post for no ostensible cause and retired to his house, where he lived on a scant annuity he possessed. Such food ss he needed was purchased by a blind sister, with whom he lived, and he gave no alga of existence, save when at nght his steps could be plainly heard pacing his backyard, which, that he might escape prying eyes, ne naa roofed In with canvas. The mystery at his death remained unsolved. A physician named Blore, who lived at the end of the eighteenth century, waa suddenly seised with a hatred of his kind and resolved until hla death never to see or be seen by man. So he had made a large bell-shaped struc ture of wlckerwork, open st the top to admit air and food. Into this, hav ing caused It to be placed In the ball of his house, he, having bidden a sol emn farewell to Ms wife and daugh ters, descended through the aperture. In this esse Insanity was st the bot tom of the matter and Blore perished by his own hand In less than a week after he hsd taken possession of his odd dwelling. Another curious Instance of mania was that of a gentleman whose family was well known to the writer, lie was stricken with the strange fancy that he possessed a Gorgon's head, so that everybody who beheld him would bo turned to stone. He therefore re tired to a couple of attics, to which he would admit no one, and, though doubtless he might with propriety have been relegated to an asylum, his fam ily respected his bizarre whim and be remained religiously secluded for over three years, when he recovered his normal senses. The victim through sn accident of a ghastly disfigurement, a wealthy Pa risian, aays the London Tlt-Blts, made a vow never to be seen again by man. He kept to a special suite of rooms In his house, where he was waited upon by two well-trained blind ser vants, who were the Intermediaries between himself and the other mem bers of his household. No exception was made even In the case of his wife and children, who, from the day of his accident to that of his death, never again set eyes upon him. The late EL P. Whipple, the Ameri can lecturer and critic, used to tell of an eccentric New Yorker who, hav ing read a pamphlet on Immurement as practiced by the mediaeval religious orders, was possessed by an Irresisti ble desire to copy their procedure though not In his own person. This he gratified with the assistance of sn elderly pauper, who. In consid eration of a handsome annuity allowed to his wife, agreed to be confined In a small dungeon built in the walls. In this cell he spent four years of his life, being fed through a small aper ture so contrived as not to permit n sight of the voluntary prisoner. A strange fancy seized a Viennese watchmaker some years back, lit shut himself up In his house, and till his death, seven years later, was never again seen by mortal eyes. All the windows were closely shuttered and such communication as he had with the outside world was carried on after dark through an aperture made In the door. He continued, to some extent, to work at bis trade, at which he was an expert; watches, clocks, etc., to be repaired being taken In and returned through the same small opening. PICKING OUT THEIR CAREERS Children Bcgla in These Daya a Soon as They Talk. A group of five Brooklyn children cousins, were playlug In the nursery a few mornings ago, the eldest perhaps 10 years of age and the youngest the only boy, nearly B. Their mothers are club women, alert and Intelligent, and these youngsters had beard much dis cussion of "the new woman" and of "advanced" topics mentioned In ad dresses before the clubs. They had absorbed more of the Information than their parents realized, says the Brook lyn Eagle. I On the morning In question the chil ' dren were talking over what they had heard and the oldest said: "Well, ev erybody's got to be something now adays. Mother says you can't be Just humdrum , and comfortable and alt around home any more. Must have a career. I shall be a musician. People wll corns to hear me play and will clap and give me lots of 'plaws.' " "I," said Jeannette, "shall be s sculp tress.

She glanced up, a puzzled look on her contented little face. "Yes. I heard you all talkln'," said she with a sigh. Then her usual happy expression returned, she lifted baby doll to her shoulder close under her chin and said: "I'm Just goln' to be a mother with a nice fambly o' chll'ren" If a man has plenty of money his tool remarks are cons.Jered witty.

"That Is Just where you are mis taken. Clarence Blghead. When I want any Interference In my domestic af fairs I'll let you know.

Mr. Spencer, the superintendent of the New York Aquarium, s few days ago was busying himself by picking a lot of sand fleas from a dipper and dropping them into a Jar of anemones. As they fell into the water they straightened themselves out and then slowly dropped to the bottom, kicking as they felL A few of them alighted on the body of an anemone, which promptly closed up. One, unfortun ately, found himself, when he had set tled, on the tentacles of one of the anemones. These began to serve the purpose for which they were bestow ed upon the snemone, and the flea, or scud, suddenly found himself inside the capacious maw of the anemone, and the life was soon squeezed out of him. "All is grist that comes to our mill," quoted Mr. Spencer. "These were on a lot of mussels which came in a little while ago I thought I would save them. There Is Ufa everywhere In the water. Look at this!" He held up a dozen mussels, held together by what appeared to be a vegetable growth. "That Is sn animal growth, known as serturlarla," said he. "In this bunch you will find all sorts of animal life Tbers are scuds) or sand fleas, and rock crabs. Look!" He held up one of ths valves st a mussel shell. On it was a sea snemone.
