From time to time so books are put open the shelves, and the old nes burned. Nothing ever comes out of the lazaret--everything| possibic is destroyed. Even empty botiles are driven into the ground to form borders for guidene.

Almost every patient has a hobby, and as most of them. are simple enough, they are gratified by the authorities. One keeps parois, and teaches them portions of the English and other languages, another has a pigeon-loft, with a cloud of the birds; still another has a fowl,rus, with about a couple of hundred fowit; some have their private vegetable gardens (the Kanskas running to sweet potatoes, for instance) or flower gardens, orbers cling to music.

The chief attendant, an old soldier, who has been in many lands, and knows men, looks upon his patients as so many of his children. Their whims and humurs are safe to find from bim patience, while the doings of their day are to him of much importance and in- lerest as to themselves. The same can be said of the nurse in charge of the female lazara, Why," she exclaimed, "I don't think any of them would leave now.
