SPEAKING of the prospects of Mr.. Blaine,
Mr.. Beecher, who is somewhat given to po-
litical prophecy, says: 'There is no very
striking resemblance on general principles
between Moses and Blaine, but they are alike
in one respect as twin brothers-both are
permitted to go up on the hilltop and take
good, square look at the promised land, but
that's where they stop.'

Muscular Development by Gentle
Exercise.


Several experts witnessed the re
markable muscular fleets of Mr.. ID. l..
Dowd, the strong man, at private
reception given by him at No. 10 East
Fourteenth street last night. Among
other things, Ir. Dowd drew his
stomach almost into his throat, and
lifted LOS pounds with ease. He is
the man who defeated Miss Lulu
Hurst.
DR.. Edward II. James, of the board
of health "There is no doubt as to
the remarkabled 'velopment attained
to by Mr.. Dowd. His most notable
feature is his extraordinary symmet-
ry. No portion of the muscular sys-
tenn has been neglected.
"These results have been attained
by four years scientific use of very
light dumb bells and elastic straps,
the exercises being so arranged as to
involve all the muscles, both in or
binary use and those but seldom
called upon, such as the muscles of
the neck, and those moving the leg
backward or sideways. With this
extreme development of muscular
volume has come an extraordinary
degr e of elasticity, due probably to
the fact that the exercises have been
rapid, executed with light weights,
and never protracted to exhaustion.
This elasticity of fiber is best shOwn
by the extraordin ry expansion of
which Mr.. DoWd'S chest is capable,
amounting to ten inches; of course
this extreme expansion is due i'm some
measure to violent contraction of the
abdomen, but nevertheless its extent
is unprecedented.
Mr.. DOwd's feat of lifting 1,20e
lbs. with his hands was performed
fairly and with apparent ease, but he
desires it to he understood that hi
exercises have not been in the direc

Business for Ladies.

The opportunities for ladies to
find employment that is both suitable
and renumerative are limited: their
pay is usually poor as compared with
the salaries paid to men in the same
lines of occupation. But there are
some very noted exceptions; journal
ism, drama, music and platform offer
equal advantages to men and women.
and there is one occupation in which
women are more successful than men
and that is in the management of
agencies. In this line the Queen CITY
Suspender Company. of Cincinnati. o..
are offering inducements to ladies that
we think ought to attract attention.
They are now manufacturing and in
Producing their new Stocking Support
ers for Ladies and Children, and their
unequalled Skirt Suspenders for
Ladies. None should be without them:
our leading physicians recommend
them and are loud in their praise.
These goods are manufactured by ladies
who have made the wants of ladies and
children study, and they ask us to
refer them to some reliable and ener-
getic lady to introduce them in this
county. and we certainly think that an
earnest solicitation in every household
would meet with ready response.
and that determined woman could
make hadSOme salary, and have an
exclusive agency. We advise some
lady who is need of employment to
send to the company her name and
and mention this paper. Adj
