Now that the enâ€" thusiasm has blown over there is general regret at the excesses of the McGill men, who invaded private proâ€" perty to compel the hoisting of flags, and at the retaliation of the Laval men, who tore thein down and cheerâ€" wl for the Queen, to show that they could be loyal without coercion. In retaliation, yesterday afternoon about 2,000 Frenchâ€"speaking . men and boys paraded along St. James‘ street, and, as they turned up Beaver Hall Hill, it was supposed that the mob was making for McGill grounds, and that a free fight was imminent. Nothing happened, however, as the crowd turned east along St. Cathcrâ€" ine street, and finally dispersed. Last evening, however, matters asâ€" sumed a much graver aspect. . Shortâ€" ly after 8 o‘clock a crowd, composed of fully 3,000 men, a great many of them belonging to the tough element came down St. Lawrence Main sirest, up St. Lambert‘s Hill, and along Bt. James street to The Star office. British Flag Mauled Down. Here the mob pulled down the Britâ€" Ish flag and tore it up, howling and hooting all the while. At this junc ture a few Britishers arrived, and, as the mob departed, a flag was again hoisted on The Star office, and death was threatened to any man who molested it.

Why is a man absentuilnded on 0¢ easlous? â€" W\\’i, does a man sometimes become fiolently insane, often a dangerous. raving lunatie? â€" luc; ;;vu-uou as these bave puzsied our Immediate fathers, who bave hard ly ever satisfactorily explained them away or Indeed throws much reliable light upon them. The buman brain is compbsed of cells, and each cell is & simple bit of nerve substance, from one end of which, like an ectopus, spring a number of tentacles, while from anotber part arises an arin dif ferent from thein and of great length. The longâ€"arm is Intended for trans mitting impressions from one portion of the brain system to another, it be« Ing made te touch the tentacles or short arms of the pext one to it, the latter in its turm effecting contact witt a third cell, and so on. ‘Thus a message is conveyed and the mind gets its news. The entire brain is made up of these cells, whose nuinâ€" ber is legion and whose full atrength is grouped is systems, these systems in turn being arrauged in communtâ€" tles, the communities in clusters and Aoally the clusters in constellations. by which divisions they are tnows to physlologists. 1 o e P P Eo long as the mind is in a healthy condition each little cell, or brain o¢â€" topus. attends to Its business falthfulâ€" ly and gives no trouble,. but as man generally is an animal who nsually reâ€" fuses to live the life spanned out by pbature and adopts instead the life laid down by the modern artificlal process of living. Instituted forsooth by clvi I!zation, mental disturbances frequentâ€" Iy arise through the brain becominz abused in various ways, from over work and alcohol prineipally. Your octopuslike brain cell is a livâ€" inz little thing. and it can endure a great deal of abuse from you, but if you should go a little too far It rebels and refuses to work any longer by breaking contact with its commpanion cells, which it can do by withdra wing its long arm and getting itself out of elrcuit. But this rebellion is conduct: ed by whole groups of cells acting to gether in full barmony. l M oo n se euge i0 n ie h d ie P Now, the object of this "strike" is simply to avoid overwork, for each tlny‘lcell bas stored within its mloute spacé only a certnin amount of energy. but If you put on the high prossure this is casily consumed by the opera tion of the brain, and the organism breaks down from exbaustion. Now. take the first of the problems just stated. When a person takes too much to «drink, the cells in those patches of the brain that nre responsible for the conduct of muscular morement be come affected and the man staggers. When the dose is very large, the eells, which,. although stupefied, bave tried to keep their master on his legs. now cease working. and the man sleeps like one dead.

At fiist the trouble did not apâ€" pear to be serious, and we thought she would soon regain her aecustomed health. _ As time went on, however, this proved not to be the case. She grew weaker, was troubled with headaches, poor appetite, dizziness and a feeling of almost constant languor. She was treated by a good doctor, but still there was no improvement. She seemed to be gradually fadiog away. If she walked up stairs she would have to stop several times to rest on the way. She lost all her color and her face was as white almost as ehalk.
