The proposal to establish a hospital
in Madras for the HindOo and MOham-
medan women whose religious feelings
and caste prejudice prevent theirayaiI-
ing themselves Of the aid OF qualified
medical men. is one that must COM
mend itself To the favorable cousidera-
ton of all persons. =; present, Indian
ladies suffer illness and dic without any
medical advice worthy of the name. if

women practitioners, who are far too
few To minister To the wants Of "a ihoJis-
and 4e part of the population The

why Some People Swear,

Some people have been found to say
good word for bad language; but
this is out of love of paradox. They
have pleaded that the custom of swear
ing is analogous to that of emphatic
speaking, and that those who are too
lazy to think of the right word to
express their meaning, crop, out of
sheer carelessness, into the easy slip
shod style of using explosives. I'm
fortunately, it is not merely the
ignorant, who might by some posi-
bility be supposed not to know the
correct term to employ in order to
express strong feeling, that are guilty
of the improper habit. 1t prevails to
considerable extent in circles where
refinement and education are supposed
to prevail. Men who have been to the
university, and possibly have come out
as first-class men or wranglers, have
been known before now TO take the
shortcut road to their meaning which
swearing unhappily supplies. In such
cases, perhaps, it may be urged in eX-
cuse that severe academical training or
examinations have so reduced their
stock of brain power that the discovery
of the appropriate and seemly adjective
TO apply in any case is as difficult for
these lights of learning as for the
ploughboy or the day laborer. And
there may be something in this excuse.
Intellectual laziness is accountable fer
a good deal of the hasty judgement as
well as the hasty language whichis cur
rent; and in the rush and hurry of life
a busy man may argue that he really
has no time to be particular about his
phrases. This might be accepted as a
legitimate plea if it could be shown
strong" language is at all more easy
TO utter than weak; such, however, is
not the case, and the whole thing is a
matter of habit. 1t begins, perhaps,
with intellectual laziness, or the desire
to appear on a par with the swearing
world around; boys adopt a lament
able variety of explosives, very often sim
ply out of the cumulative faculty. Posi-
bly the swell of their school thinks it
a fine thing TO call game of cricket''in-
formally tedious, whereupon his youth
full imitators proceed at once to garnish
their ordinary conversation with a
good deal of imagery borrowed from
the lower regions. The popular desire
of emphasis in speech must not blind
us to the fact that it is very i'll manners
to swear. The habit, whatever be its
origin. is deplorable one, and cannot
be legitimately defended by anybody.

a Crazy-work Cane.

Robert Yale, of Norwich, n. T., who
is visiting in Norwich, Conn, has an
historical cane which is made of 1000
pieces of wood. Each inlaid piece is
given an artistic form. 1t represents
i've months labor. Sixty of the 1900
pieces of wood are of value TO the relic
hunter, and comprise piece of wood
from what is alleged to be "the oldest
tenantable house in America, the Fair
banks residence, built in 1920, and now
occupied by the seventh generation
(thougn where this old house is, is not
stated. The head of the cane is from
the tree at Crown Point to which Gen
eral Putnam was tied after being con-
demned to death, by burning. by the
Indians. Set in the cane is a wreath
of hair from the head of Rebecca Bates,
one of the heroines whose strategy
drove the British to their shipping after
landing to attack Scituate, Mass.
There is a piece of wood from the
Charter Oak; another from the house
of Hancock, the first signer of the Dec
laration of Independence; another from
the house where witchcraft originated
in Salem, and another from the build
ing where the victims of the craze were
tried. Set in the cane is a small piece
of Plymouth Rock. and also piece of
wood from the Mayflower; also woods
from five different forts on Lake Cham
plain, from Hawthorne's residence at
Salem, from the church where Roger
Williams preached, and from the tree
beneath which Jonathan Edwards

For myself / am not especially fond of
what YOU call made dishes. but prefer
food in its palmer forms. For meats |
eat chiefly mutton and beef, aud use
good deal of bread, of course being
as careful as can to get the best. My

much difference what kind it is as how
much YOU eat of it. | am very particular
TO eat slowly. | eat three times a day
Breakfast is light or hearty meal, ac-

the day is always light, and dinner at
$50 or is the principal meal of the
day. | always take an hour for that.
If havne't an hour to spare at dinner
time put off dinner till have.
Il find, though, that aside from meat
and bread | must have plenty of yege-
tables. No man can make any kind
of an athlete without eating plenty of
vegetables. | take all kinds, and
pretty much of all fruits, too. Fruits

his familiar moods, was a queer COM

the marvellous military triumphs of the

serious dispositions. Besides they are
matter of history. He was noble

der. His troops had great faith in
him. At serious crisis in battle,
when defeat seemed imminent, his
presence restored confidence s'Alls

ranks. Here comes old HoOkey-Nose!'
He was not man who dealt in max

The Bell of the Highlands.

The mysterious ringing of bell in
the vicinity of the Highlands, on the
Hudson River, is thus accounted for by
an old boatman:
| was worriedin my mind for month
before Saturday night. Almost every
night when we passed through the
Highlands, near the Storm King. we
would hear a bell ring. Sometimes il
seemed to come from the mountain top,
sometimes near the base, and now and
then we would hear the tinkle over
head. We compared notes and couldn't
decide on the cause of it, but the mys-
terry has been cleared up. Somebody
has lost big American eagle. The bird
flew through the streets of Cornwf Il
last Saturday with a steel collar around
its neck, to which was attached a good
sized bell, and the bell rang every time
the eagle swooped out of its course.
The hunters are trying to catch the
bird alive. They wouldn't kill it for
the world. because they are supersti-
tious, and believe if they should shoot
it there would be no luck in the future.
/ have no doubt lots OF boatmen have
heard that bell in the night, the same
as | have.

EXCITEMENT UNABATED.
Proof that that Physicians Terrible Con
fession Is True.
CleUeiand, o., Herald.

Yesterday and ths day before we
copied into our columns from the
Rochester N. T., Democrat and
Chronicle, a remarkable statement,
made by j. b. Henion. NJ. d., gentle
man who is well known in this city.
la that article DIR. Henion recounted a
wonderful experience which befell
him, and the next day we published
from the same paper a second article,
giving an account of the excitement in
Rochester. and elsewhere, caused by
DIR. Henion's statement. 1t is doubt
ful if any two articles were ever pub
lished which caused greater commo-
ton both among professionals and lay
men.
Since the publication of these two
articles, having been besieged with
letters of inquiry, we sent a COM
munication to DR. Henion and also to
II. IL. Warner q Co., asking if any adj
ditional proof could be given. Pad
here it is:
GENTLEMAN: | owe my life and pres
en- health wholly to the power of War
ner's Safe Cure, which matched me
from the very brink of the grave. II
is not surprising that people should
question the statement made (Which
is true in every respect) for my recOv-
cry was as great ma val TO myself.
as TO my physicians, an friends.
