The Pickering shadows would fall upon

LONG LIFE.


Likely to Have 1t.
If any one would know whether he is
likely to live long or die soon, let him
inquire whether old age runs in his
family or not, for the good tissues of
long life are apt to be hereditary, and
he may commit u great many excuses
or othel errors without killing himself
if he comes of long lived stock. In
like manner he may get much help
towards knowledge of the diseases to
which he is prone and which excuses
or other errors are likely to light up by
inquiring what diseases his forefathers
or kinslaen suffered or died from.
Some diseases are VIGOROUSLY reckoned
to be directly hereditary in like kind.
for example. epilepsy. phthisis, and in
sanity. When a person has one OF
them we are not at all surprised to
learn that the discovery is sufficient
explanation and 10 think that no more
be said. But it is not really an explain
alton it is merely an indication of the
direction in which the exact explana-
ton has yet to be sought. If it be a
sufficient explanation, how does it hap
pen that all the children of the same
unsound father or mother do not suffer
in the same way? How is it that twins
living under the same conditions, have
not always, as now and then they have,
the same diseases at tho same agesp In
calling 4 disease hereafter it is not really
meant that the disease itself is actually
inherited BY the offspring, who, in that
case, would be born with it; what is
meant is that the latter inherits GER
tain organic constitution which. being
likely to undergo that pathological de-
ve!opment in the ordinary circumstan-
ces Of life, is therefore described as
constitutional predisposition or tenden-
cy to the disease. We do not in the
least know what is the intimate nature
of the pred;sposition, but we know that
it may be greater or less in different
persons, and that it is thought to be so
great in the cases of the diseases men.

to children as to be a serious objection,
if not IN actual bar, to marriage. Those
who, having fallen in love, are aware
of the existence to them in their fami-
lies are therefore not little troubled
sometimes with scruples of conscience

whether they shall marry or not. In

pursuaded themselves that the epilepsy
was not real epilepsy. but form of vi

Married and Single Ladies Playing
Base Ball for Church Benefit.
At Bradford Pa, recently, a game
of baseball was played for the benefit
of the local church, in which the mar
ried ladies were pitted against the
single ones. Tho married ladies' Bat
tory was composed of Mrs. Monroe in
the box and Mrs. Garfield behind the
bat, while Miss Donaldson and Miss
Bristlc acted in similar capacity for
the other club, until finally Miss Bris-
tie 'bristled' up no longer and gave
place to Miss McCool. There were but
eight members in each club, all of
whom wore long dresses, but no great
effort even with these facilities was
made to stop hot balls or catch decep-
tive flies. The toss was won by the
married ladies, who took the bat,
while the ma,dens went to the field.
Miss Bristle's curves, having the gus
set-like movement, were easily guagcd
by Mrs. Monroe and Mrs Garfield.
who each obtained good hit at the
sphere. while Mrs. Vogen's whack at it
brought them both to the home plate.
A muflcd fly allowed her to score
when the next three strikers were out,
retiring the married ladies and bring
ing the ,naidens to the bat, amid the
cheers of the spectators. In the first
and second innings Miss MoCool was
the only member of either club who
played with the brilliancy worthy of
her sex, but in the second inning the
married ladies got their work in at
the bat, and before the third woman
was ont ten runs were added
to the score. From that moment the
fate Of the girls were sealed. but thou oh
the end was foregone conclusion they
did not lose heart, but fought to the
finish step by step. Miss Bristle being
knocked out in the second inning,
Miss McCool took her place with better
success. In the third inning only two
scores were made by the married
ladies, while for the single ladies it
was a blank. About this time Mrs.
Monroe filed an objection with the UNI
pire to Miss McCool's curves. The UNI
pire was man, decidedly in favor of
the unmarried female, aud tho game
went on. The batting became heavy,
and the sorces rolled up alarmingly on
both sides. Supper time arriving, the
game was called at the seventh inning.

stood BY, intently watching tho prog
ress Of the game, no doubt uncon-
sciously associa,ing the bat with the
proverbial broomstick, but, still elated
with the success OF their combating

their cigars in silence and viewed the
defeat OF their best girls with woebe-
gone countenances. The ladies con-
cerned in this contest are among tho
brightest social lights of Gillmer. The
interest created by the game is immense,
and no doubt it will be repeated. -
