HOW TO RETAIN YOUTH.

Take frequent recreation, but not so
much as to rob it of its zest.
Preserve the feelings and habits of
youth as late in life as possible.
Keep free of intense excitements. They
wither the physical energies like fire.
Keep Il clear conscience and lead life
void of offense in the sight of God and
man.
Insist upon an abundance of regular
sleep-as much of it as possible before
midnight.
Avoid excuses Of all kinds, wn ether of
work, pleasure, eating, drinking or any
otherwise proper employment of mind or
body.
A man cannot long keep young who
gives up all the active, health giving ex-
ercises of youth. Take boy and treat
him as q good many middle aged men
treat themselves and he would soon notice
the deterioration of his physical powers
1t is intense excitement, the excite
meut of social life, the ball room, the
theater and the various forms of fashion,
able dissipation that makes our American
girls fade so rapidly. If they took life
more quietly and reasonably they would
preserve their beauty and physical vigor
longer.

1t is now the correct thing for girls to
talk with their fingers. In this way they
refute the imrutation that they chatter.
Three girls between the ages of fifteen
and twenty, boarded an L railroad train
They were fashionably dressed and evl-
IDENTIFY belonged to the bon-ton. The
instant they were seated they commenced
q vigorous conversation with their
fingers. They were adopts and their
nimble fingers fairly flew. They wiggled
them with the utmost ease, and
appeared never to hesitate as to how
they should express what they wished
to say. Their eyes followed the move
mentS of the fingers lazily, seeming to
comprehend the complicated digital
language without effort. The faces of
the girls would light up, beam, smile and
be convulsed with laughter, but through
out their animated talk never a sound
came from their lips. The brakeman
said they were not members of a deaf and
dumb asylum, as might be supposed, but
belonged to well-to-do families in the
swell part Of the city. They were on
their way from school He said great
many young girls travelling on the Ele-
waited spoke only with their fingers.

a Good Showing for the Fort Worth Fire

The best proof that Fort Worth has the
best fire department in Texas is shown
by the record of the fires for the year
1888, and the losses sustained. Chief
Matkin furnishes THE GAZETTE with the
following statement for the twelve
months ending January 1 False alarms,
8; lamp explosions, 8; burning fiues, 3;
ineendiaTy, 3; explosion of powder, /
from friction, /; explosion al
cohol, 1; unknown, 10. Total
alarms answered, Sc. The amount
involved in these fires was S154 600;
damage done, S54 $50; loss to insurance
companies, $40 600 OF the fires of 1888,
at two, that of Stert IS, on Main street,
and that at the collar factory, both late
at night, no department in the world
could have done better service. The first
was from powder explosion and the
other from friction of machinery which
ignited jute and moss in ginning room.

A Fort Worn, University.

DR.. George W. Gray of Chicago, as
sistant corresponding secretary of South
ern education society of the Methodist
Episcopal church, spent yesterday in the
city. He came TO visit the Texas Yves
leyan college, see its property and build
ings, and look at Fort Worth in order to
report to his board the desirability and
feasibility of accepting Texas Wesleyan
college as the nucleus for founding the
Fort Worth university, and thus greatly
enlarging the scope and usefulness of the
present college. The doctor was pleased
with the city. and college, finding both
better and larger than he expected. Our
citizens judge his report viii lead his
board TO accept Texas Wesleyan college
and formulate some plan of aggressive
work in the interest of strong college in
our city.
