We Do Not Walk Eno,,s,

AS people, we do not walk enough.

WIND does not blow through.us enough
Buggles, horse-cars, and carriages are
undermining the national health The
Engilshman walks five times as much as
the American man, and is five times as
healthy. The Englishwoman walks 1000

and IS 1000 times as healthy. The young
Engllshman, If he rides at ALL rides
bicycle. The adult Englishrean if he rides
at all, rides horse. He is either on foot
or horseback the most of the time. He
only uses carriage as matter of duty
to etiquet. The buggy is almost un-
known. The result is that Englishmen
rarely have the dyspepsia, and English
women have roses on their cheeks which
are not purchasable at the drug-stores,
and are free from the lassitude, backache,
and headache which are the peculiar
enjoyment of their American sisters.
AS it is all the rage now to be "sweetly
English" why not copy their healthy prac-
uces instead of mere insular peculiarities
which can never be adapted to another
nation? Physical exercise is not confined
to one nation. 1t should belong to all, but
particularly to Americans, whose nervous
temperament rapidly consumes vitality.
They need muscular training for arms
and chests, and walking for their legs to
restore the energy which is wasted on
close application. If a general law could
be passed that every man and woman
should walk a given distance, according
to their strength, daily, the doctors would
soon lose large per cent of their practice,
and several diseases, now heterogene-
ously assigned to malaria and microbes for
want of definite cause, would probably
disappear ltogether-Chicago Tribune.

Principal Causes of Boiler Explosions.
Boiler explosions were formerly attri-
buted to mysterious agencies, and there
are some who still cling to that theory,
even in the face of satisfactory evidence of
weakness or carelessness, or both. After
twenty years study of the subject among
thousands of steam boilers, am satisfied
that there is little or no ground for mys-
terry here. The principal causes of boiler
explosions are poor material, fault in
type, poor workmanship and careless
management. Material and workman
ship have already been alluded to. There
are new types of boilers devised every
year, but the majority of them have but a
short existence.
The tendency to employ cheap engineers
Is no doubt fruitful cause of disaster,
and under careless management the best
boiler may be ruined in week or less
The desire for excessive pressures espe-
cially OH boilers that have been some
years in use, and that are not of sufficient
capacity for the work required, is another
fruitful source of disaster. Steam users
in many cases forget that with the enlarge
ment of their works for increased produc-
tion they should add correspondingly to
their boiler power. They often try to pro-
vide for this increase of product by order
ing their engineers to increase the pres
sure on the boilers. This is all wrong,
and it invites disaster.-Boston CONNER

THE KEYNOTE, founded some three
years since, has long been recognized
as the leading musical authority in this
country, and the reliability of it's criti-
cisms, characterized as they are and
have been by sound knowledge and az
tistic integrity, is universally acknowl-
edged both in professional and amateur
circles.
Not content with adding new fea-
lures from time to time, and establish
ing literary, dramatic and art depart
ments,, the spirit of liberal enterprise
that has been displayed has now reach
ed a climax in the acquisition, at a
large outlay, of the sole rights in a
novel by the exceedingly popular and
-eminently gifted writer, M. French
Sheldon. This author, whose mastery
English translation of M. Flaubert's
"Salammbo" has created such an ex-
traordinary sensation, is now one of
the foremost ''lions'' in the literary
world.
The opening chapters of "Our Fan
gled World" afford indGbitabe evil
dence of the conspicuous ability of the
new writer, as creator possessed of
strong dramatic instinct. In addition
to this, marvellous power of word
painting, incisive analyzation of char
acter, and realism that appeals ire
sistably to the mind of even the dullest
reader, are qualities that compel our
admiration.
1t is, of course, impossible to antici-
pate the development of the main fea-
furoC of the story but the initial cham
tiers are so powerful and suggestive
that it is safe to anticipate a plot of ex-
citing interest, treated with adroit skill.
