The Running Away Mania ::nd Don bio Personality Phenomenon. Professor Pierre Janet. In hia book, "The Major Symptoms of Hy steria," describes a number of re markable cases of what he calls "fugue," or tLe hysterical mania that impels people to run away. One of these is the case of a boy of seven teen, living in Paris, who suddenly lost all memory of his previous life and his Dome. He left Paris, and wanriered about the provinces, at last falling in with an old china-men ler, whom he accompanied, and for whom he worked. The restoration of his memory is described by Pro fessor Janet as follows: "One evening an unlooked for event took place again. The day's work had been a success; the two companions had earned seven francs! The old china-mender stopped and said to R.: 'My boy, we deserve a good supper, and we will keep, to day's feast; It is the fifteenth of Au gust.' On hearing this, the boy heed lessly said: "The fifteenth of Au gust? Why, it is the feast of the Vir gin Mary, the anniversary of my mother's name-day.' He had scarce ly uttered these words when he ap peared to be quite changed. He looked all around him with astonish ment, and turning to his companion, said: 'But who are you, and what am I doing here with you?' " The poor man was amazed and was quite unable to make the boy un derstand the situation; the latter still believed himself in Paris and had lost all memory of the preced ing months. They had to go to the village mayor's, where with great dif ficulty the matter was made more or less clear. The mayor telegraphed to Paris, and the prodigal child was sent back home." 1 1 One of the most remarkable cases of d?uble personality on record is de scribed by Professor Pierre Janet in "The Major Symptoms of Hysteria." The patient, whom he calls Marce line, first came to him about twenty years ago. For several months she had not taken any food and was on the verge of starvation. After try ing other methods of treatment she was hypnotized, and a secondary state was induced, which, although apparently artificial, differed alto gether from the state In which she had been on her entrance to the hospital. She immediately began to eat, and soon regained her strength. When she seemed on the road to re covery it was thought necessary to awaken her from the hypnotic state, which was considered artificial. Im mediately the patient fell back into her preceding state. She was again unable to eat and In order to save her life it was necessary to reinduce the hypnotic state. The same experience was repeated over and over again, and as Pro fessor Janet explains, "things contin ued in this way for fifteen years. Marceiine would come to me In order to be put to sleep, enter into her alert state, and then go away very haopy, with complete activity, sensibility and memory. She would remain thus for a few weeks; then"either slowly or suddenly, In consequence of same emotion, fall back into her numbness, return to the state we had consider ed primitive and natural, with the same visceral disturbances. The forgetfulness was extended over whole years, and disturbed her exis tence completely. She would has ten to come to me to get herself transformed again. Things contin ued thus for years together, till the death of the poor girbwho succumb ed to pulmonary tuberculosis." Alligator's Tail. A great delicacy in Florida is the tip of an alligator's tail. It tastes like frogs' legs, though a bit more gamey. Alligator tails are best just after the rice bird season. The big alligator floats in the water with only their eyes showing. When they see a flock of these fat, juicy little birds, they dive to the bottom. Their long wide snouts scoup up some of the loam and they float to the surface again, with just the rich soil showing. The birds think it is an island. They alight upon it. When the whole family Is there the big reptile tnrns suddenly. Just as the birds scram ble ofl* he opens his mouth once. They are gone. The birds are neat little feeders and the alligator Is an epi cure at this time of the year. The rice bird diet makes the tip of his tail, of which he Is most vain, tender and sweet. A Nomadic Piece of Land. Cape Cod Itself is sand, and like everything of a desert nature is no madic. Like the Arab, it Is always silently stealing away, so that the appearance of the peninsula con stantly changes. The prevailing winds ia the winter being from the north, the sand la blown south; in summer it is blown t'other way, but the winter winds being stronger the land is gradually working south. Monomoy at the lower end used to ue an island, its extremity being called Cape Malabar, a name not used now. This island of Monomoy is rapidly growing toward Nantucket, It having advanced some live miles in the last fifty years. Seemed Unlikely. Little Loren had watched the rain pour down all day.
