REST AND RECREATION,
How to Reverse the Strain Upon the Fac
ulties Most In Ordinary Use.

DIR. D. A. Sargent, in mis- lecture on
the subject of rest and recreation, says:
The exhaustion entailed by this busy
life of ours is tremendous, and so de-
pletes the nervous system that disease is
invited, and the system being so ex-
hausted one falls an easy victim to the
disease. Thus it is that recreation is
absolutely necessary for the health of
mankind. Recreation is that which,
with the least expenditure of time, fits
the person to resume his work. The
recreation must, of course, vary accord
ing to the daily life of the person. The
organs not under the control of the will
such rs the heart and the secretory Or
gans, receive rest Immediately after
performing duty, but it is not so with
the muscles of the body. A good diges-
ton is necessary for recreation. As
long as nutriment is kept up, endur-
ence is likely to continue. Digestion
is always greatly aided by proper
physical exercise, and it is thus that
we may say exercise is the best of recre-
alton. The fundamental of recreation
is a change from one class of work to
another, the brain-worker requiring
muscular exercise and the mechanic
mental work. Both classes will find a
certain amount of emotional recreation
to their advantage. 1t is we'll known
that low spirits tend to lower the vital
tone and render one liable to disease.
Those most in need of recreation are
those engaged in the work of a sedentay
nature. EmSsional men should have
recreat - lssFgeiy of physical nature.
A brisk walk is what physicians most
frequently recommend for exercise, but
for person not accustomed to exercise
this is not always beneficial, for, his
brain being the only part of his body
that is kept in activity, the exercise
forces the blood into the head, and he
returns home with a severe headache.
Such a man should take passive ex-
ercise, such as rowing, sailing or hunt
ing, where the mind could be in slight
activity also. The majority of men en-
gagged in mercantile pursuits get enough
physical exercise from their everyday
life, and their recreation should be of
mental nature. A few days in the
country, change of scenery, is ben
eficial to every one. Stock brokers and
bankers require very quiet recreation,
but instead they try to get their recre-
alton from the most exciting of sports,
which is really no change from their
daily life. Mechanics and clerks are
recommended to attend light entertain
ments, such as concerts and lectures,
or play cards, chess, checkers or other
games of that nature. Women and
children, the former especially, rely too
much on excitement for recreation and
carry it to such an excess that it be-
comes simply dissipation. A distinction
must be understood between excitement
which invigorates and excitement which
exhausts. Dancing and roller skating
are excellent excitement, but under the
excitement of the music is too often
continued to exhaustion. - CHICAGO

HOW INNOCENCE WAS PROVEN.
Blood Examined Under the Microscope

The only instance on record when the
| blood OF two persons was compared in q
| criminal trial was in murder case in
| Chicago The comparison settled the
innocence OF the woman on trial for her
life. The story of the bloody transac-
| ton is as follows:
A comely woman, with $4,000, mar
ried man in Chicago, and placed her
snug little fortune in his business. In
the course of time he began to abuse
her, and finally she decided to apply for
divorce. The double calamity of losing
woman to beat, and the withdrawal of
her $40, 600 from his business, made the
brute furious, and the next morning he
was found dead in one corner of his bed
chamber, bullet having gone through
his heart. His wife was found wounded
in another part of the room. She said
that her husband had come home the
night before in rage, and began to
abuse her while she was in bed; that he
hit her on the head with the butt of his
revolver while her head was on the
pillow, and spattered blood over the
linen; that she jumped up, and he shot
her, inficting a slight flesh wound in
her side. She then rushed at him, and
him through the heart. He reeled to
the corner where he was found and died.
The prosecution did not believe her
story, and set up the theory that she
had shot him while he was asleep and
dragged him to the corner, and then
inflicted the wound on herself. The
carpet where the dead man lay was
saturated with blood. According to the
theory of the prosecution the blood on
the pillow was his also.
DIR. Piper put sections of the pillow
with blood upon it under the microscope.
and drew on card board the shape of
the corpuscles, enlarged about 1000
diameters. He then put the blood on
the carpet under the microscope in the
same way. The comparison was wonder
full. The corpuscles on the pillow were
bright, round and clean. They were
beautiful. The corpuscles on the car
pet were large and disfigured, the result
of disease. The comparison settled that
question at once. The blood corpuscles
were as different as day and night, and
sustained the woman's account Of the
shooting. She was acquitted on that
and other evidence.
AS between human blood and dogs
blood, the microscope enables the expert
to determine precisely whether a speci-
men is from human being or dog.
But it is impossible to determine be-
tween human blood and hogs blood.
This fact convicted one man. He
claimed that the blood on his clothes
was dogs blood. The expert was able
to show that it was not dogs blood; but
if he had said that it was hogs blood he
could not have contradicted that state
ment,

AT THE DEPOT.
Theodore ThOmas's Version of the Meeting
Between his Company and the Cowboys.
From the San Francisco Report.

From the San Francisco Report.1
ssAs to that cowboy incident that has
made so much stir in the papers," said
Mr.. Thomas, sit afforded us consider
able excitement at the time, and was
regarded by the ladies as quite an
adventure. We had stopped at Coolidge,
in New Mexico, for dinner / had gone
into store to make small purchase,
when one of the orchestra told cowboy,
clothed in full cowboy costume, that we
were musicians.
"He told his friends, and, after a
brief consultation, they asked for the
director. I was just coming out of the
store, and was pointed out to them.
About twenty of them surrounded me
at once, and said they wanted to have
some music, but they didn't want to pay
for it. 1 saw it would be best to humor
them little, so I said: Show me the
man who told you we were musicians,
and I'll make him play to you.' He
pointed out Stowasser, who plays bas-
soon, and L told him to get his instru-
ment, and also to get me violin, and
would accompany him.
"The cowboys had not been aware
that there were ladies in the train, and
they set up cry that they would have
a song. One of their number was ap-
pointed to enter the ladies' car.
"While he was gone 1 asked them
what they wanted, Home, Sweet
Home or dance music. After long
consideration they decided in favor OF
the latter, so we struck up the Arkansas
Traveller and they began a shutting
sort of dance on the platform. This
attracted the attention of the ladies';
who poked their heads out of the
| windows.
"He approached Miss Juch and told
her that he wanted her to sing. She
said that she was forbidden by her con.
tract to sing except at the written
request of the manager. He pretended
to get mad at this, and put his hand
on his pistol. She was very much
frightened at this, and putting hel
head out of the window began to sing
for dear life. Before this had happened
however, I had concluded it had gone
far enough, and told the conductor &c
pull out.
''The engine whistled, our party
jumped aboard, and amid cheers and
the cracking of revolvers we moved OF
our way. No one was hurt, and thinl
every one enjoyed the affair"

Fixing the Income.

M. Albert Wolff tells good story al
the expense of the late Jules Wales,
Although a Socialist, Wales was fan
from disdaining filthy lucre, and when
Villemessant engaged him to write the
daily chronique for the EUenement OF
Sc, 900 year, he was beside himself
with joy, and at once adopted a more
luxurious mode of living. After three
months his chronique was found to be
too heavy, and Albert Wolff (this was in
1860 was deputed to tell him that he
should have $4,000 a year for three
articles a week, the other three TO be
done by Wolff himself at similar salary.
Valless reply, says M. Wolff, soon be-
came historic in journalistic circles. He
answered haughtily: ST have arranged
my life upon the footing of $4,000 a
year, and L refuse to make any conces-
sion." In the end he had to submit, and
wrote novel for his 10000 francs, in
stead of making chroniques.

PREPARING THE con.
IL Is Sailed Mt Sea, Dried In Newfoundland.
and Skinned In New York,

Acknowledgement recently appeared In
The Sts,a calling for men to skin fish.
Such an advertisement is rarity, be-
cause In fish packing the supply oflabor
usually equals the demand. Three OF
tour men answered the advertisement re-
ferred to, and all were engaged by the
advertiser. The fish these men were re-
CURED to skin were cod. Gloucester.
Mass, is the principal cod packing place
OF this country, but a great deal of cod
packing is done in this city, and the
methods are everywhere alike. The cod
Is roughly cleaned, dried and sailed as
soon as caught. It is again, and more
carefully, treated at the stages on the
Newfoundland shore, where the fishing
boats put in for the purpose of drying
their catch. When it reaches the coun-
try, which it does packed in cases, it
looks somewhat like thin slab of pine
wood cut across the grain. Here the
skinner takes it in hand, preparing the
wy for the cook and the fishball.
Selling cod by the tail, he throws it
on the table before him, back down, and
with knife, shaped like long table
knife, he scrapes the cod free from any
bone or dirt, or salt that may have
lodged on it. Then he brings the back
of the fish uppermost and steadying the
fish by the tail, cuts off the fins. A lit
tie cut to start the skin, tug, and half
the skin comes away in the SINNERS
hand, and is thrown into box near by.
A similar cut is made on the other side
of the tail, similar tug, and a similar
result follows. A few more scrapes with
the knife, and the cod is skinned. The
cod of modern fishballs, however, is
generallyapurchased boned. Its boning
is simple, when one knows how to do it.
The skinner makes deep cut on each
side and the whole length of the fsh's
backbone, which he pulls out and breaks
off about two inches from the tail. Then
he seizes this stump, twists it, and pulls
out the rest of the backbone with the
tail.
There are many ways of packing cod
for market. Sometimes the cod is cut in
two, lengthwise, sometimes crosswise,
sometimes into little slabs about two
inches by six. Sometimes it is not cut
at all, but packed whole. The largest
packing house in New York prefers to cut
the fish into different sized pieces and
roll them up into parcels containing each
two pounds. II was the firm which has
this preference that advertised for men.
The head of this firm said, when asked
about the advertisement:
"We were rather short of men Just
then, strange to say, for this is our slack
time. During the winter, when we pre-
pare for lent, we are busiest. Then we
have as many as twenty men working
up here. Twenty doesn't sound like
very large number, but with twenty
men we turn out about five tons of pre-
pared cod every day, and five tons is a
good deal. There is no waste, the skin
and bones going to fertilizer companies.
We sell hundreds of tons of skin and
bones to two companies near New York
every year. "-Net0 York Sun.

Advice to a Young Man.

Give the poor man a chance? Ny
son, the poor man takes about all the
chances without waiting to have one
given him. If you give him any more
chances than he takes, he will soon own
everything, and run the Ohio man out
of the country. The fact is, we must
curtail the poor mans chances little.
We must sit down on him, and hold
him down, and give the rich man a
chance. The poor man has had things
his own way too long. He has crowded
the rich man out. But for the poor
man, this old world would have cast
anchor six thousand years ago, and be
covered with moss and barnacles to-day,
like United States man-of-war. George
Peabody was boy in grocery, Edgar
Allan Poe was the son of strolling
players, John Adams was the son of a
farmer; Benjamin Franklin, the printer,
was the son of a tallow chandler; Gift
ford, the first editor of the Quarterly
ReUjeaO, WAS common sailor; Ben
Jonson was a bricklayer; the father of
Shakespeare couldn't spell and couldn't
write his own name-neither can you;
even his illustrious son couldn't spell it
twice alike; Robert Burns was a child of
poverty, the eldest of seven children,
the family of a poor bankrupt; John
Milton was the son of scrivener,
Andrew Jackson was the son of poor
Irishman, Andrew johnson was O tailor,
Garfield was boy of all work, too poor
even to have a regular trade; Grant was

misfortune, not his fault; he couldn't
help it, and he can't help it now. But
you see, my dear boy, that's all there is
of him; he's Just the Prince of Wales,
and he's only that because he can't help
it. Be thankful, my son. that you weren't
born a prince; be glad that you didn't
strike twelve the first time. If there is
patch on your knee and your elbows
are glossy, there is some hope for you,
but never again let me hear you say
that the poor man has no chance. True,
poor lawyer, poor doctor, poor
printer, poor workman of any kind
has no chance; he deserves to have now,
but the poor man monopolizes about all
the chances there are. Put Laban and
Jacob in business together anywhere,
and in about fourteen years Jacob will
not only own about four-fifths of the
cattle, but he will have married about
one-half his partners family. Go to, my
son, let us give the rich man chance

& Gold Nugget.

"The Mount Moliagul nugget was
found in a most peculiar place." said a
miner. 'There was an unusually rich
diggings in the vicinity of Mount Molia-
gul, Victoria, that had made q hundred
men rich. 1t had been thoroughly
worked in every direction, and it was
thought that every grain of gold in the
neighborhood had been collected
busy scene of life dissolved as quickly as
it had collected, leaving the shanties to
the mercy of the weather, which soon
made them a picturesque ruin. OH
toward the east there was solitary tree
stump, standing on pillar of earth that
had not been cut away by the gold hun
tiers because of the old roots of the tree
that spread through the soil. 1t was not
more than ten feet in circumference that
had been left by the diggers. One day
two miners came to the deserted camp.
| and stopped over night on the site of
the old camp. The stump struck one of
them as singular feature of the old
| diggings, and being skiIful miner, he
knew that one part of nuggety country
was as likely to hide the precious metal
as another. 1t occurred to him that the
ground under the stump was as likely to
prove rich as the portions of the neigh
boring field that had yielded SO much
gold. He resolved to work the little
mound the next day. His companion,
however, was anxious to be off to the
latest diggings, where the excitement
was at the highest pitch. But the first
miner who had resolved to explore the
solitary patch of the deserted diggings,
persuaded his partner, and together they
set to work on the old stump. They be-
gan by undermining one side of the
stump, but before they had dug in three
feet they discovered an enormous mug
get. one of the most valuable that had
been found in the whole diggings. They
continued their labors and uprooted the
stump, but did not find another grain
of gold"
