mittee appointed to arrange the inaugural
ceremonies having declined to give the Rep
resentatives in Congress their proper place
we will decline to take any part in said cere-
monies at tho capitol" Mr.. Hammond, of

Heart Beats.

DR.. n. B. Richardson, of London,
says he was recently able to convey a
considerable amount of conviction to
an intelligent scholar by a simple ex-
pertinent. The scholar was singing
the praises of the ''ruddy bumper"
and saying he could not get through
the day without it, when DR.. Richard
son said to him: "Will you be good
enough to feel my pulse as I stand
here?' He did so, I said. count it
carefully; what does it sayP Your
pulse says a. l then sat down in a
chair, and asked him to count it again
He did so, and said, Your pulse has
gone down to TO- l then laid down
on the lounge, and said, Will you
take it again?' He replied: why, it
is only 64 what an extraordinary
thing!' then said: when you lie
down at night, that is the way ma
ture gives your heart rest. You know
nothing about it, but that beating or
gan is resting to that extent, and if
you recon it up, it is a great deal of
rest, because in lying down the heart
is doing ten strokes less a minute.
Multiply that by sixty, and it is six
hundred; multiply that by eight hours
and within fraction it is throwing
six ounces of blood at every stroke it
makes difference Of thirty thousand
ounces of lifting during the night.
When lie down at might without any
alcohol, that is the rest my heart gets.
But when you take your wine of grog
you do not allow that rest, for the in.
fuence of alcohol is to increase the
number of strokes, and instead, of get.
ting this rest, you put on something
like fifteen thousand extra strokes.
and the result is you rise up very
seedy and unfit for the next days
work till you have taken little more

1t has been decided by the supreme
court of Michigan that the law, pass
ed by the Legislature of that state two
years ago, providing for the probate
of wills during the life of the testator
is unconstitutional. Its unconstitu-
tionality is based on the ground that
it did not give wife an opportunity
to be heard touching the disposition
by the husband of property in which
she has rights. In stating
this point the court says:
A wife's interests in her husbands
estate are not likely to be purely sell
fish and personal. The two cooper.
ate in accumulating it generally with
an object in view that eventually it
shall benefit children or others tc
whom they are mutually attached
and if the husband, while mentally
incompetent or in the hands and un'
der the influence of scheming anG
mercenary persons, is making dispo
sition of it, no person is so justly en-
titled as the wife to make showing
of the facts to defeat it.
