What . Physician says-A Doctors Pre-.
| caution-Revoiting Morsels.
Few habits are more prevalent and
none more disgusting than biting the
finger-nails. said prominent physician
the other day. Cleaning the nails with
penknife and picking the teeth in pub
lie are practices vulgar enough. but bit
ing the nails is far worse. 1t is disgust
ing in more ways than one. 1t renders
the finger tips soft, pulpy and shapeless,
and destroys the beauty Of the nails.
Properly cared for they are an impor-
tant item in personal adornment. Next
to pearly. regular teeth. pink. shapely
nails are, perhaps, the most striking in
dication of neatness and cleanliness. A
person with no regard for these little
things is pretty sure to be slovenly in
other respects; one who munches his
finger-nails as he talks to you may be
set down at once, and with slight dan
ger Of injustice, as an all-around slat-
.ern.
Beside, think of the nastiness of il.
Dust and dirt of all kinds lodge under
the finger nails. Every article that the
hand touches contributes its share to the
rapidly accumulating deposit of filth.
There is no use mincing matters. The
nail deposits are filth of the most often
sive and miscellaneous sort. The dirt
lodged under the nail soon becomes soft
and pasty from the excretion of perspir-
alton. In this form il is bitten off with
fragments of the nail. moistened by the
saliva, turned over in the mouth. and
not infrequently swallowed. Did you
ever observe q doctor at his ablutions!
Invariably he washes his hands first.
Then he carefully wipes them and emp
ties and rinses out the bowl before he
washes his face. He knows that the
hands attract dirt just AS sponge alb
serbs moisture, and he has too much re-
spect for his face to bathe il in the same
water that he has cleansed them. His
professional experience has taught him
also that poison in the shape of virus
from wounds and contagious diseases are
often contributed by 30 simple process as
handshaking. He doesn't propose to have
his eyes or his nose or lips contain mated
by his hands in that way. The person
who bites his nails is infinitely more
liable to that risk, for he takes the con.
centrated filth from under the nails into
his mouth.
"But, worst of all. the nail bitter is
self devouring cannibal. l wonder how
many sentimental school girls. who keep
their fingers in their mouths half the
time, and dudes, who nip at their nails
as industriously as they suck their cane
heads. have ever thought of that.
Probably not many of either class. But
it is fact all the same. When the nails
are bitten off, chewej up and revolved
in the mouth. as though they were sue
culent tidbits, it necessarily happens
that small particles of the quick are also
removed. These particles are human
fiesh-the nail-biter's own flesh and
they are masticated, frequently swal-
lowed, with the other revolving morsels.
Anyone who can bite his nails, after
that thought, will never suffer from
nausea. New York Mail and Express.

THR MERCHANTS UNION.

The business men met again Jast
night Ia discuss the formation of q
protective union. All the business
houses In the city were represented,
and the report on permanent organizes
ton submitted by the committee COM
posed of Messrs. Van Gasken. Eisen-
berg and By al. received careful con
sideration and was adopted article by
article with such amendments or
alterations IA the combined exper-
fence Of those present suggested. Per-
manent officers were elected as fol-
lows: President, VIM. Courtenay;
vice president. c. b. Towers; secre-
tary, Charles w. Seyde; treasurer,
Charles r. Kelsey. The object of the
organization Is the protection Of re-
tail merchants doing business here
from the imposition of those who are
unworthy Of credit, but whose true
character in this respect 1t has been
impossible to ascertain until too late.
Under the plan proposed by this organ
ization each merchant reports to the
secretary the names of those debtors
that he has on his books, that he
deems unworthy Of credit. The par
ties so listed are then notified by the
secretary that they have been report.

case will come up at the monthly
meeting for examination. If on con-
sideration Of the case by the associa-
ton there are DO saving features the
debtor goes on the list and thenceforth
he or she Is not to be considered
worthy of credit by any merchant in
town nor will he receive 1t, but when
ever the debt or debts that induced

rotary Of the association is at once no

tioDs have been removed. This is the
main wheel of the institution; others
auxiliary to 1t, regulating member
ships. fines. dues, ETC., being in accord.
The object Of the Union, II lived up
to, is unquestionably good one.
Credit has always been too free here

ative and safe business too

popular even with good paying Gus

English Courts and Railroads.

Speaking of English customs on big
fetes and holidays, it is interesting 10
note that few years ago the courts de-
cided that the railroads could not sus.
pend ordinary traffic on race days and
run specials at fancy rates. Since then
the knowing ones have regularly ten
tered before witnesses, the legal fare,
and this being refused have engaged
conveyances and been driven to their
destination in grand style. The next
day they sue the company for their ex-
penses, and the money is invariably
paid into court Several hundred do
this every Derby day, and even drive to
the depot in cabs, which wait outside
while the legal-tender farce is leing
played out in the booking ofhce.-t.,,-
