Ms. Gladstona,s oninlon

Mr.. Atkinson, of Detroit, reports in
the New York Sun the following con-
versation between himself and Mr..
Gladstone at recent lunch party in
England:
'Do you think asked Mr. Glad
stone, ''that protection and free trade
formed the issue?'
said "Yes."
''And which side were you on?'
81 was for protection. -
He expressed some surprise that pro-
lection should have such hold upon
Americans, but said: II never argue
with man from another country about
affairs which are purely domestic.
Every nation must judge for itself what
is best for itself. But what was the
chief argument for protection?"
( | said: 1.-The main argument was
that free trade would cripple our indus
tries, deprive us of our home market,
and compel us in competing with Eu
rope, to reduce wages to the standard
of Europe
'.Do you know" he said, ''that by
and through free trade wages have
advanced in England.
! answered that it was generally adj
mitted English wages had advanced
since free trade was adopted, but some
Of our people attributed the advance to
other causes.
"And do you think, Mr.. Gladstone"
/ said, that free trade would effect us
in the same way?"
II think so. As long as America
maintains protection England will be
the foremost Of commercial nations,
but when America adopts free trade
we must take second place. You
may say this is arguing against Eng
lands interest. Not 50; England would
gain immensely by free trade in Amer
lea, but America would gain still more. .

EFFECTS OF SMOKING.
a Physician Writes About the Evil
Cons equences of the Narcotic.

Physician Writes About the Evil
consequences of the Narcotic.
Regarding the evil effects of usinp
tobacco physician writes in the Sci
ence of Health: 1t impairs the nervous
functions, rendering the person more
excitable, more irritable, and subject
TO long train of nervous affections.
1t impairs the nervous constitution and
transmits these impaired constitutions
to children. Such children are feeble,
excitable and liable to be cut off by
any serious disease. Often they do not
thrive well, are stunted in growth, and
do not attain the stature of their
parents before them. If they take up
the habit of tobacco using early in life,
rs very likely they will, growth will be
still more interfered with, and they
will present curious spectacle OF the
lineaments of old age mingled with tho
features of youth.
Already noticeable diminution of
the stature of our people is observable.
The general average of height is less
each generation. Men of full six feet
in stature are far less common in pro-
portion to the number of inhabitants
than they We're thirty or fifty years ago.
A like falling off in height is observ-
able among the females. Among other
causes tobacco-using by the parents,
often continued from early youth, is a
prominent cause. 1t is cause that is
powerfully working the degeneracy Of
the vital powers and arresting develop
ment.
This habit also exerts an influence
over the brain as well as over the
nerves. 1t ob5cures the perception
and deadens the sensibility. Tobacco
using students make less advancement
than others in their studies.
The permanent impairment of tho
intellectual powers will be proportion
ate to the degree of indulgence and its
duration. If continued through several
generations there can but result mental
Its excessive use impairs all the
bodily organs, arresting development
and embedding the natural powers, and
its direct tendency is to produce de-
of the race. Already its
work has begun; and if not desisted
from it will complete its work and
ultimately leave a race of driyeling

Polite M,nistrants ofpeafh.


There We're formerly as many execu,
TONERS in France as there were courts
OF appeal, and each one was called after
the name of the city whore his court
was located-"M. de Paris" IN. dc
Lyon" etc. (writes Paris correspond
ent,) Since 1872 there has been only
one chief headsman. The license OF
the last of the four generations of Sam
sons was revoked in 1917 for putting
he.guillotine in pawn one day when
he was short. His. successor was Helm
dereich, who was transferred from
Amiens. While Samson was sloyen-
" man, 'Heindereich looked like gem
tleman. Hewas six feet tall, with a
cold, calm, air, a clear eye, and wore
his white hair, whiskers and moustache
cut close. When he operated" he al
ways had oni a. dress suit and white
necktie. After each execution he went
to st. Ambrose church and had mass
said for the man whom he had just
launched into eternity. Heindereich
had strong hand and an imperative
voice, and when he laid his hand on
the patients shoulder there was no
possible chance of resistance. Helm
dereich perfected the guilIotine in sew
eral points and abolished the high plat
forms. He died in 1872, after fifty
years service.
Koch, the next headsman, was jov-
ial man. He was the son of an execu-
TONER, and aided his father and uncle,
who was also de Ia pdrtie, for all the
executioners belong more or less in
timately to the same family, marrying
and intermarying among themselves.
Koch was OF average height, thick set,
had gray side-whiskers and wore little
gold rings in his ears. When he per-
formed his official duties he wore a
frock coat and looked like "a working
man dressed out in Sunday clothes. 1t
was Roch who discovered the present
plan OF binding the criminals. 1T is
for my personal convenience that in
vented that fashion, and no one ever
he used to say. Roch
was very proud of the guillotine, and
called it his Jewell When his duties
summoned him away from Paris the
first thing he did after the guillotine
had been dismantled was to send tele-
gram to his wife, telling her how the
affair had passed of, whether there
was large crowd, and the hour she
might expect his return. Nine. Roch
had high idea of her husbands pro-
skill. When he died, she ex-
claimed: For work quickly and pro-
perly done, they viii never replace my
poor dead husband" ROch died in
1879.
Deibler, the present cXecutioner, is a |
lark-complexioned man of about fifty, |
very gentle in his manners and very |
His greatest dread |
IS the journalist. This is probably be-
cause he has been frequently criticised |
'or want of cleverness in his work. Al |
though he has been executioner or as
'istant since 1858, he has never acquir-
ID the skill of his predecessors. Deibler
married the daughter of the Algerian
leadsman, and has two children. He
ives in a modest apartment near the
st. Louis hospital, in house adjoining
he police headquarters of the Tenth
ward. The executioner receives a
,early salary of $1,000 and travelling
expenses, and, as a perquisite, his eld-
st son is exempt from military service.
