The number of lunatic* In the asylqmi of tbe city of Berlin, which was 1,582 in 1882-88, amounted to 2.528 hr 1889.

In the jieriod referred to the increase in the Jmjjulation was 22.49 per cent- while the increase in the number of lunatics was 59.79 jx-r cent. The number of insane jiersous in confinement in the whole German empire rose between Jan. 1, 1881. and the same date In 1886. from - 31,270 to 12.069. being an increase Of 21.5 in the five years, as against an increase of 8.6 jwr cent in the general gpoUtiun in the same jieriod.—Chicago

A bright man told me the other night, apropos of women all over tho world, that if he wanted a companion he would seek an American; If a wife an Englishwoman. and if a mother a Frenchwoman. Certainly they are good mothers, and the love cx-'-ting between mother and child is invariably strong, while the Frenchman's belief in the rights of a mother is shown in the way laws are framed with due regard for parental opinion.—Pari*
