The Causes of Corpu1cnce-A Deficiency
of Oxygen-A Weak Heart. Err" ,
The condition known as corpulence, or
obesity, consists in tendency to the for
nation and deposit of fat. A certain
amount of this deposit is normal. 1t is an
element of beauty, rounding out the form.
It lessons the effect of sudden changes of
temperature. 1t is a reserve of nutri-
nent to be drawn upon in emergencies,
thus saving the muscles and other tissues.
Some persons inherit tendency to it.
Some races ore more liable to it than
others. Women are more so than men.
Both sexes are more inclined to it after
ihe age of TO- There are individual cases
If extreme obesity. A boy at the age of 3
woman who was thin and delicate at Is,
lied at Al with some eight inches Of fat
around her body. The famous Daniel
Iambert's maximum weight was 739
pounds. Much the largest part Of the
body in these persons was pure tat. z3a
In all cases of obesity there is fde1c-
ency Of oxygen in the blood, either abso-
utely or relatively to the amount of food.
excess of food tends to produce it, and
ret some are corpulent on spare diet.
Lack of exercise favors 1t, by lessening
The oxidation Of the tissues 1t is also
produced by diseases which diminish the
aumber of red blood cOrpuscles.' 1t is the
after that absorb oxygen from the In
,pired air and convey it to the tissues.
According to Quain, very corpulent peo-
pie have large hearts and small lungs.
This may help to explain the deficiency of
oxygen. 1t has also quite recently been
proved that women have fewer, by many
millions, Of red blood corpuscles than men.
This, too. may be one reason .fors their
greater tendency to corpulence.
As the muscles become infltrated with
at, they are weakened. Hence corpulent
persons are apt to be indisposed to active
exercise. For the some reason the heart
s rendered feeble and is easily disturbed.
The deficiency Of oxygen tends to the for
nation of uric acid, and hence to the pro-
iuction Of govt. The very corpulent are
specially liable to various forms Of con.
yestion, and acute diseases are apt to have
IN unfayorable course. . s.aHta
In treating the corpulent, regard must
BE had to the fact that their heart Is weak.
The main reliance for reducing the obesity
on diet and exercise. The latter in
:reases the power Of the blood to take up
oxygen. The more oxygen one can receive
;he better, if kept well within the PERSONS
strength, and the capacity of weakened
heart. The diet should contain but little
ATTY or starchy food, and much animal
, Ood-lean meats, fish, but not the richer
kinds; also fresh fruits, vegetables and
bread, with only moderate allowance OF
,utter. Alkaline water is believed to be

About widows Pensions.

In anticipation of the passage of the
House bill by the Senate, which contem-
plates an increase in widows pensions
from IS to sl2 per month, claimants are
already inquiring of the pension agent as
to what forms of application are necessary
to be filed what fees are necessary to be
paid attorneys for collecting the increase
of pensions in what manner the old GER
tificates are to be returned, etc. TO give
pensioners correct idea of the situation,
the commissioner of pensions makes the
statement that in case the bill now pend
ing in the Senate becomes "a law, it is his
intention to adjudicate the new claims
without the production of any evidence
and without the surrender of the old GER
tifcates either to the office or to third par
ties. The payment Of the additional rate
will simply be a matter of detail, no more
so than the payment of the pension agents
at the different agencies OF the sums due
on any certificate at the present time, and
he desires that no correspondence be re-
ferred to the Office on the subject, as the
result would be to greatly embarrass and
delay the operations of the Office to the
detriment of the claimants themselves

An Officer with n Free Revolver.

BANGOR, Feb. IA serious shooting
atfray occurred at Glenburn, nine miles

attended by about 40 couples, and among
the crowd We're William II. Lee aged %,

DEATH ON THE RAIL.
COLLISION OF A COUPLE OF TRAINS
NEAR BOSTON.
supposed to be due to "a Dense Fog-Not
Many Deaths-Dr. Nelson of the
Lancaster Bank has "a Leg
Amputated.

W1LMlNGToN, Mass, Feb. ia passen-
ger train leaving Boston and one which left
Lowell, collided about tonight near this
station. Both engines were wrecked and
the smoker and Pullman car of the down
train were badly smashed. The engineer
of the down train had one leg torn off and
will probably die, while one pass enger, a
Frenchman, was fatally injured. About
a dozen passengers were more or less in
jured.
The train bringing the dead and in
iured arrived in Boston shortly after IL
o'clock. The only fatality was an I'M
known Frcnchman, who was stealing a
ride between the engine and baggage car,
and who was badly crushed and died on
the way. DR.. f. NJ. Nelson, who has been
prominently connected with the Ian
caster bank difficulties, suffered Il
severe fracture of the lelt leg'
which will necessitate amputatlon pc
low the knee He was removed 10 the
Massachusetts general hospital; Fireman
Dudley of the up train had leg broken,
while Engineer Hammond of the same
train was seriously injured internally;
The conductor of the Pullman car ana
several passengers received snght IN
iuries. The cause of the accident is not
vet determined but officials believe 1t due
to the dense fog which prevailed.

Only Half Alive.

There are hosts of men and women who, to
coin a phrase, are only half alive. That is TO
say, they have seldom if ever any appetite,
are nervous, weak, tdgety and troubled by
numberess small pains and aches. In the
presence of vigorous, eXuberant vitality they
seem mere pigmies Such persons are usually
fond of frequently dosing themselves, swat
lowing in the course of the year enough drugs
to stock any apothecary's shop of average di-
mensiOns. This of course, defeats instead of
furthering the end in view, viz, the recovery
of health and vigor. Were they to seek it from
an unfalling source of vitality, Hostetters
stomach liitters, how different would be their
case. Then vigor would return to their dcbil-
itatcd frames, the glow of health to their wan
cheeks, their trembling uncertain gait would
grow H1n and elastic, appetite, that grandcst
Of All sauces, would give IA relish for the daily
rood, were II ever so coarse, and refreshing
sleep would crown the tasks of the day.

There is no such complete and un-
answerable demonstration of the pow
er of race homogeneity on the globe
as the example of China.
All political history shows homo
geneity to be vast power in State,
and that heterogeneity Is correspond
ing source of weakness.
The great states of Europe-Eng-
and, France, Germany and Russia
those powers that dominate the world !,
are so entirely of one race that the
presence of black or red or yellow
man in any of those countries outside
the great cities is a subject of wonder
and establishment; and race prejudice
or antagonism is scarcely known there.
No State where the great distinct
types of the human species have been
mixed together on the same territory
has ever held power for any consider
able time. And no race of mongrels
has ever held empire or even kept its
own independence.
In the very dawn of history the
Carthagenians, the dominant class of
which were white men from Syria,
while the masses were Africans of
various types, encountered the pure
blooded natives of Italy, and went
down before them.
When later on, through conquest,
the Roman Empire had come to con-
sist of the mixed races of Western
Asia, she transferred her capital to
the shores of the Bosphorus, and was,
in turn, overthrown by the Turks--a
pure race.
The once master race of Turks hav.
ing become mixed and hybridized
with all the mongrels of Africa and
the East, now in the nineteenth cen.
fury find themselves about to be ex
PEELED from Europe.

always been mixed and parti colored

AN UPSET.
Four BulliOniteS Thrown From Hack
and Hurt.


About 7 o'clock last evening, as
Harry Wells's two-horse hack was
driving down Bullion street, looking
up the passengers for Bullion, the
Warm Springs team attempted
to pass it. Mr.. Wells whipped his
team, which started on a run down
Main street and up Croy. At the
corner of Second Avenue the team
made a sharp turn, which upset the
hack, throwing the four occupants or
to a pile of gravel. The driver landed
on his head, which was badly bruised
his left shoulder was dislocated, and he
sustained a deep cash over the left
eye. His lip was so badly mangled
that physician had to stitch it. Big
John. a Sclavonian, had his lip cut
and a tooth knocked out. The Others
sustained a few scratches and bruises
They were taken to the Alturas
Hotel, where DR.. Mckay was called

For answering yes without counting

Think OF the mother who bore you in

Think OF the tears that will fall like
rain;
Think OF her heart -ah! how cruel
the blow!
Think Of her loye, and at once an.

Think Of the hopes that are drowned
in the bowl!
Think of the danger to body and soul;
Think of sad lives once as pure as the
snow,
Look to them new, and at once an
swer no.
Think OF manhood with rum tainted
breath;
Think how the glass leads to sorrow
and death;
Think OF the homes that, now shad-
owed with woe,
Might have been heaven had the an
swer been no.
Think Of lone graves both unwept
and unknownl
Hiding fair hopes that were fair as
your own;
Think Of proud forms now forever
laid low,
That still might be hore had they
learned to say no.
Think Of the demon that turks in the

Driving to ruin both body aud soul;
Think OF all this as life's .urney you
