From November uutU July every year Mrs. Fisher le to be found deny dIrectlug the workmen of the Flatter & Norrle fouudry at Tren- ton, N. J.

Faculty Strongly Developed in Many insane Persons. One of the most peculiar features of insanity Is that occasionally one fac- ulty, eltber sight, bearing, smell, taste or touch, Is extraordinarily acute. Cer- tain insane persona, insensible to every other impression, have • pronounced taste for meek, and can repeat with accnracy an air which they may have beard but once. Others have a recol- lection of form and color and display an aptitude for drawing, while more frequently one may meet with an M- utate of an asylum wbo has a special memory for figures, dates, proper names and words generally. There is a case on record, for In- etancp. of an Imbecile who at twentY- seven had true!" en ettraordlnary mem- 017 that be could stoles the most dlffl- enit problems in arithmetic and alge- bra and repeat word for word long Poems after once bearing dm= In Another case a boy of frmrteen, with a defective brain, wbo had the greatest (Mean, In lemming to read, could, if 'allowed two or three minutes to ran ever a page printed In n foreign lea- ving, or treating of question' of which he was ignorant, repeat the words from memory as correctly as If the book had been lying before him. Very cartoni was the case of an- other man, a devout churchgoer, who tested remember the day when every Memo had been buried In the pariah for thirty -eve years and could repeat. with unvarying accuracy, the name and age of the deceased and mourners at the funeral. And yet be wa. a (-om- elet. fool, and °Waldo of the line of trials he had not one Mee and could not give an natelligent reply to a single question or even b. treated to feed himself.
