Plymouth Genealogies.

A lady who is of Plymouth ancestry, and
is reasonably proud of it, attended the re.
| cent dedication of the national Pilgrim
monument in that town. While she was
in the town, she took it into her head to
drive, with some friends, to the Cedarville
neighborhood. The party travelled in a
democratic sort of vehicle which put
them at once into more or less familiar
relations with their driver, who was a
native of Plymouth, and who gossiped on
in very cheerful way about the old in
habitants of the town. He knew every
one on 'em, he said. The lady Just spoken
of opened her genealogical heart to the
driver, as it were, and alluded to her de-
scent and her family's connections with
people of this, that and tie other name
famous in Plymouth history.
''Oh, yes" said the driver; ''the Stand
ishes; know them folks very we'll There
was old Bradford Standish-nioe man as
ever you see"
"My fathers family were related" the
lady broke in 'to the Alden's, too"
"Oh, yes, l knew the Aldens, too; used
to go to school to old Standish Alden -
said the driver.
"On my mothers side / am descended
from the Huguenots," the lady pursued.
''Oh, Lord w exclaimed the driver; 81
am well acquainted with the Hewgenows
Samanty Hewgenow, that lived out by the
swamp, she married my grandfather"
The lady suddenly lost her faith in the
driver as genealogical authority, and the
incident helped her to the conclusion,
which she had already partially formed as
result of her studies in the town, that
Plymouth genealogies are somewhat better
known and more highly regarded outside
the old mother town than they are in it.

Sedentary Life.

There are hundreds of people to-day
leading sedentary lives who ought to profit
by the warning contained in Lord Bea-
constield's case. Next to the gospel of rest,
of which so much has been said, there is
nothing more sadly neglected than the
gospel of exercise. The man who is COM
PEELED TO sit all day at a desk in counting
room and undergo the anxiety of response
bility and the worry of business cannot
afford to do so without exercise. He may
be pleased to think that he keeps his skin
dry and that his limbs do not ache; but
the man who exercises his muscles until a
gentle moisture shall come over him will
feel freshness and vigor and enjoy a
healthful rest otherwise unobtainable.
Such exercise will aid his digestive pow
ers; it will enable him to throw off dis
ease when it may come, and it will save
him from dyspepsia, and from the horrors
of a torpid liver, with all the mental all
ments which come in its train. DR.. Kidd
only utters truth which is as old as the
world itself when he says that nature has
a Nemesis power of revenging herself on
the man of sedentary habits.

the only one of its kind in the United

bone, or the quill of the goose and turkey
feathers. E. X. Warren, the inventor OF
this new and popular substitute for whale
bone, is also the inventor of the machinery
for the different processes of the manu-

that the capacity has been increased to

The Truth Underlying Certain Ancient
Superstitions.

~--S ScItdIh ancient
Superstitions.
From the Youths Companion.
In villages among the mountains of Vir-
glnia and Pennsylvania, where habits Of
life and thought have remained almost un-
altered for two centuries, an odd custom
still prevails which may be new to our
readers. Prescriptions for the cure of
different ailments-weak eyes, scrofula,
consumption, cancer and hydrophoba-
have been handed down in the same fam
lily from one generation to another.
These prescriptions are never known to
more than one person at time, and it be-
comes his duty to make the remedy and
give 1t away. According to popular su-
perstition, if he imparts the secret, or takes
money or any recompense for the medicine.
its virtue is gone. Many of these lotions
and cordials possess undoubted efficacy,
having been ORIGINALLY distilled from sim
pies and earths by men who were forced to
go to nature for cure, and who came to un-
derstand some of her resources better than
we do.
A similar superstition exists among the
Hungarian peasants, with regard to the
amulets which they wear to protect them
@ @IIoH llSnlhlnS, poison, or sudden death.
The amulet must be given; as soon as it is
sold 1t becomes worthless.
The same idea formed the basis of the
custom among the ancient Irish of baking
cake at every meal for the possible guest
who might chance to come in. When the
meal was finished, too, few crumbs were
thrown out of doors and on the hearth for
any invisible creature, whether good or
evil spirit, who might be hungry.
These superstitions seem ridiculous to
our shrewd modern sense; but the truth
underlying them is as old as humanity
and will live as long. 1t is, simply, that
we owe part of our talents, our wealth,
our strength, in short, of every good thing
God has given US, to our brother, and that
as soon as we begin to barter it FOR our own
advantage, the virtue goes out of it.
The selfish child or man, no matter how
rich he may be in genius, knowledge or
money, will find life grow poorer and
barer every year. He has not paid the
tithes to his brother.
A special blessing follows even the
earthly fortunes of the man who is gener-
Gus in heart as well as in deed.
"He that hath pity upon the poor
lendeth to the Lord" and the Lord repays
all such debts with great interest.

A Son of Eugene Kelly, the millionaire
Banker, Killed.
New YORK, September 11th. Joseph
Kelly, the third son of Eugene Kelly, the
millionaire banker, with his father and
Allie Byron, a friend, were on their way to
their summer home in South Orange. The
young man YVES seated in one of the pas
senger coaches near his father Just as the
train was passing over Hackensack bridge,
Joseph and his friend started to go into the
smoking car. A storm was raging at the
time, and as the young man was crossing
the platform between the two cars gust of
wind blew off his hat. He made an at
tempt to catch it, and at the same moment
another gust of wind lifted him off his feet.
This, coupled with the movement Of the
train threw him from the platform across
the eastbound track. His head struck on
the side of the track, crushing in his skull
and causing instantaneous DEATH
The venerable father of the boy was
among the passengers who inquired why
the train had stopped. His unspoken grief
when he saw the lifeless body of his son
carried into the baggage car was pitiable
He fondled and caressed the corpse and
called the boy by endearing names. The
body was taken on the train to South
Orange and the stricken father remained
with it IN the railroad station while mes
senger went to Seton Hall College to break
the sad intelligence to Mrs. Kelly, the
young mans mother, who is an invalid.
Joseph Kelly was about twenty-five years
of age. He assisted his father in business.
He was graduate of Seton Hall College.
He was popular young man about town
and was noted for his fine collection of dogs
and horses.
