HEALTH OF AMERICAN WOMEN.

The Probable Elects Of Suffrage Upon

The exercise of the suffrage would
presumably tend to improve, rather
than to impair. the health of the aver.

There is nothing dangerous ts

questions with relations or friends OF

all these things without any suffering
in consequence. On tho contrary, the
reasonable exercise Of any faculty. and
of ali the faculties, Of mind and body.
is positively beneficial to man OF

situde and. sick ness prevalent Aneng

GOVERNOR HILLS CLOCK.
Noteworthy Addition to the Furniture o
New York's Executive Mansion.

Noteworthy Addition to the Furniture Of
New York's Executive Mansion.
A valuable article of furniture was add.
ed to the superb appointments of the
new Executive Mans on some months ago,
says the Je,o eler's Weekly. 1t is musical
clock, rendered especially interesting by
its history and the bit OF romance con-
nected with it. The case is of natural
oak, handsomely carved, and the time
keeper looks more like massive side
board than any thing else, bearing on its
exterior no indication that there is any
thing rnisical hidden within its recessss.
The romance is connected with the mech
anism producing the music, which was
once contained In magnificent
music box which Frederick the
Great presented to q favorite
lady OF his court. II Is not of
the usual kind, which produce melody
through the vibration Of steel teeth, but
consists of sweet-toned wooden flutes,
nell W with age, every one of them being
more than a century old. For many gen.
erations the box was treasured in the
lady's family, but about three years ago
it came under the hammer in Berlin and
was there knocked down for q mere song
to q shrewd artisan, who caught .
IL impss Of the antique wooden flutes b.
meath the rubbish of its time-worn ex-
terror. Three years ago last June Mr..
Hoffman, OF. Marsh & Hoffman, of Albany,
then in Berlin, ran across the purchaser,
who had by that time conceived the
idea Of putting the flutes into
clock. Negotiations were entered into by
Mr.. Hoffman for the purchase of the clock
when completed, and year ago in June
when again in Berlin. he completed the
bargain, and took the clock with him.
The architect of the Executive mansion
chanced to see il, and at once purchased
It for the ornamentation of the then al
most completed edifice. Besides telling
lhe hours and minutes in mellow chimes
The clock plays thirty-six different selec-
ions--mainly by Italian, French and Ger
man composers. These include four So
,ectons from Strauss celebrated "Cagli
pstro" waltz, Carmen" "Lohengrin,"
"Tannhauser," "Iiuguenots," "stradella"
and "Freischutz." The instrument has
been altered to play several American
airs, among which is Payns's "Home,
