DOORS OF THE BODY.
Emana atoms Which in Many Instances o.
feud the Sense of Smell.

Emanations Which in Many Instances Of
fend the Sense of Smell.
A certain odor is natural to the body.
and it is not necessarily disagreeable
odor. Indeed. that of a clean baby is
positively pleasant. 1t is rarely agree
able later in life, because few persons
have perfect health and the full, nor
NAL action of their eliminating organs.
Fhe lungs and the skin are the chief
eliminators of what offends the sense of
smell. Every one is familiar with the
disagreeable odor in the breath of per-
sons who have been eating onions.
Other kinds of food and alcoholic
drinks also produce an offensive breath,
and so do various digestive derange-
ments or effete matter circulating in
the blood, and being eliminated by the
lungs.
The emanations from the skin often
receive a disagreeable odor in con-
sequence of the skin being required to
do work that has been imperfectly
done by overburdened Or diseased kid
neys, or by constipated bowels. In the
case of overburdened kidneys, the help
given by the skin serves to prevent
serious harm. In the case of diseased
kidneys. it greatly aids in prolonging
life. Whatever the origin of the dis
agreeable odor from the skin may be,
it is most marked in those parts of the
body-the arm-pits, for instance
where the sweat glands are most numer-
Gus. 1t will be seen that, in all cases
of this kind, the removal of the odor
must come from improving the gener-
al health. as well as from frequent
bathing.
But besides these causes of disagree
able odor, there il another still more
marked-the arrangement of the func-
tons of the skin itself There is what
is called chronic hydrosis. 1t is char
acterized by an excess of perspiration.
which, moreover, has an offensive acid
smell. It is most frequent in the feet,
hands and arm-pits. When the feet
are affected, the soles are generally
burning hot, red and exceedingly ten
der If there is any nervous debility
in the case-and this is often the case
the diet should be nutritious and
generous, and tonic remedies should
be administered,
Sir Erasmus Wilson, the highest au-
thority on skin diseases, says that the
affected parts should be washed with
juniper-tar soap-and sponged from
time to time with lotion consisting
of one part of liquor ammonia to
three of water. When the feet are af.
fected. let the patient have two pairs
of stockings, and interchange them
daily, hanging the pair not in use out
to dry, preferably in the sun. This
will answer every purpose.
In the case of women. .'sleeve pro-
tectors" should be used.-Youth's Com.

ANOTHER SALARY GRAB.
How the PIutocrats of the Senate Propos
to Reduce the Surplus.

How the PIutocrats of the Senate Propose
to Reduce the Surplus.
The Republican Senate of the United
States is the seat OF American luxury,
extravaganza and ostentation. 1t fol-
lows as a matter of course that all
salary grabs should have their first
orators in the upper chamber. Since
the catastrophe of 1874, when SO many
statesmen were retired for their per-
sonal meanness. the olly salary raid
on me Treasury has been the hiring of
private clerk for each Senator. This
was accomplished in the first session
Of the Forty-ninth Congress. It was
abetted by the House because its mem
bers expected to soon share the
plumber.
Now the Senators, in the person of
their poorest colleague, rich man
named Platt. stand forth and ask for
more money. They declare that a
Congressman can not live on salary
of about S., 500 year, paid for less
than six months labor. There are a
hundred millions in the Treasury, and
yet a Senator, on whom the people
lean to be taxed, must live at the
humble rate of 800 week. He, the
masnate of sixty millions of people,
the ambassador of State, must dwell
like any prosperous grocer, must
forego horses, carriages, grooms,
opera boxes, presidencies, honorary
dignities those delights of modern
life which are on sale to liberal
buyers.
Of course, if Senators received $40.
900 year this Cry of to-day would be
for $780, 900. The protective tariff has
shown us there is no limit to human
greed, and these same Senators are
the high priests of the protective
tariff. They want this money to swell
the social splendor of the capital.
They delight in the vulgar exhibitions
which are SO faithfully reported to the
press, where men fight for first place
at the table-where women's rich APP
parel is torn and their persons jostled
as no hoodlum of a Western town
would jostle a defenseless creature.
Money, always a god in America, has
become jealous and terrible god at
Washington. Those Senators, stand
ing before their idol. like opera Choir
listers before the shining Phthah, in
"Aida,' want the people to bear the
expense of a heathenish Offering.
Whether or not the taxpayers will
be as choleric as in 1874 remains to be
seen. The Senatorial speeches of the
other day were feelers. If there shall
be no exhibition of public anger we
may count on early action in the
Fifty-first Congress. Put these sniv-
cling old men in their best light, and
yet their greed is unconscionable.
They are money-makers by profession.
They have,' like the Duke of Graf
ton. ''done good by STEALTH Their
thrift is on record. Herald.

1t looks as if the Irvine monop-
oily would succeed in squeezing the
farmers Il good deal this year, in
spite of their kicking. An increase
of from eleven cents to twenty cents,
or more, on several million pounds
ought to satisfy the greed of an Or
binary trust. OF course, none of the
farmers voted in favor of the tariff
that protects the monopoly with its
high rate on the imported sisal which
is the larger constituent of the Irvine.
But trusts are mostly private affairs.

How Russian Convfcts Are Transported

How Russian Convfcts Arc Transported to
the Penal Colonies.
The Handicapped is an iron
steamship of about $500 tons burden,
and is especially fitted as a convict
transport. With full complement OF
convicts the vessel carries 652. The
officers and crew number eighty. ex-
elusive of a marine convoy escort OF
sixty-two men especially chosen for
this duty. The, iron-barred compart-
ments or cages in which the convicts
are confined run parallel, fore and aft,
on either side of the upper and lower
tween decks The iron bars. an inch
thick, of the cages and the woodwork
in which they are set. is heavily and
solidly constructed. The cages are of
unequal capacity and length, but have
a uniform height of seven and a half
feet. The more desperate characters
are manacled and chained to iron
staples in their berths, from which
they are released when necessary.
The greater number, although retain
ing the waist and ankle shachles
of light construction, have the
freedom of traversing the length of the
compartment, which may vary from
twenty-five to forty feet. Between the
outer bars and the two plain plank
shelves or hunks running from end to
end of the compartments, which afford
sleeping room for the occupants, there
is a free space of about four and half
or five feet.
Except during the distribution of ra-
tions no culinary vessels are left with
the convicts. Even the drinking wa
ter is obtained only through an India
rubber mouthpiece fixed in an inclosed
water tank. and through which the
drinker sucks his draught- 1mmedi-
ately outside the cages and attached to
the under part of the deck overhead is
a steam-pipe connected with the ships
boilers. Into these pipes are fitted
screw nozzles at intervals of twelve
feet. The object of the steam-pipe is
to suppress any dangerous outbreak
among the inmates of the cage.
BY means of a short hose,
especially made to resist the
steam heat, quickly attached to one of
the steam-pipe nOzzles, the turbulent
convicts are readily quieted or par
boiled Strong water jets have been
found next to useless in allaying these
occasional tumults.
After the ship has passed the canal,
but not before, patches of convicts are
in turn brought upon the deck for a
shower bath and short exercise. A
strongly-constructed iron railing, eight
feet high, crosses the vessel amidship,
in order that the convict, during his
bath and while unmanacled, can not by
any sudden rush evade the guard and
reach the quarter deck. Some of the
more desperate convicts, who stubborn
ly resist all disciplinary control, are
confined to the cages during the whole
voyage. Both the upper and lower
tween decks are open and airy, the
system of ventilation being excellent.
and the cages themselves are kept scru-
pulously clean. The cages are repaint-
ed every voyage. The convict, in ad-
dition to having his hair cropped short.
has the left half of the head from front
to back closely shaved. Sunshine.

CLARKSON'S CRIME.
The Shady Record of Brother Wan

The Shady Record of Brother Wanna
makers First Assistant.
The attention of the New York
grand jury has been called to the rob-
berry in which Assistant Postmaster
General Clarkson was an accomplish
before the fact, and if it does its duty
he will be called away from Washing
ton to show cause why he should not
change the Post-Office Department for
Sing Sing.
The proof of his guilt is-conclusive.
The property stolen as a result of the
robbery was of great value. 1t was
the mailing list OF Funk & Wagnalls,
containing the names of the subscrib
Clarkson was, no doubt, afraid of be-
ing shot by the Waterman if he
entered the Office with burglarious
intent, he hired two young men,
Charles A. Durfee and James I.
Jansen, to commit the theft. Dudley
was also in the conspiracy. and during
its progress he wrote Durfee as fol-
lows:
MY DEAR SIR-Your favor just received. In
reply would say that as soon as 1 am ready
shall be glad to have your services in the mat
ter that Mr.. Clarkson and We're talking to
you about. 1t will necessitate your coming
here, and can arrange, l think, for you to
have a room to sleep in the headquarters
building We W IL settle about the details
when am ready for you to come.
In explanation of this, the other
young man employed as Garrison S
accessory says in his confessions:
Mr.. GARRISON And I had interview. I
showed him the circulars and lists. *
For these lists already furnished Clarkson
asked what price / wanted. 1 said 500 He
said the price was fair if the work eff
tective.
This young man, deaf mute en-
felt that after robbing his benefactors
it would be unpleasant to remain in
their employ. He told Clarkson that
he would have to leave them. Clark
son urged him to remain ''in order to
gain more information" and promised
to ''make it $3.50" Promises of Gov
eminent clerkships in the event of Re-
publican success were also made as
further inducements for the commits
sion of the theft
The crime committed was felony.
As thieves employed by Clarkson and
Dudley were in the employ of Funk &
Wagnalls, some legal complications
might be created to enable Clarkson
to escape if he should be indicted, but
there are no complications to obscure
the moral aspects of the case, and
morally Clarkson IS .guiltier than the
deaf mute he paid for the commission
of theft and breach of trust. st Louis

STYLISH PARASOlS.

Novelties Produced for the Coming Sprlns
and Summer Seasons.
The new parasols for spring and
summer are covered faille or armure
silk in plain colors or richly brocaded,
or with striped silks, plaids or bord-
cred patterns. and very dressy para
soils have thin gauze, silk muslin or
net covers brocaded with tinsel in de-
signs like embroidery. The handles
are of natural woods--holly, acacia.
bamboo, cherry or ebony-with curl
ously twisted hoops or large hooks or
knobs at the end, or else they are
quantity carved and tipped with silver
or gold. Coaching parasols and those
for general use have handles that ex-
tend fourteen inches beyond the edge
of the silk cover when closed. The
Directoire parasols to be used with
walking toilettes have much longer
handles, like wallzing-sticks, extend
ing eighteen inches beyond the cover,
and these handles are now put to-
gether with screw joint SO that they
may be taken apart and doubled
small enough to go into very
small trunk. Rich brocades of the
last century in dull colors and with
metallic designs are appropriate COW
ers for these parasols when meant for
dress, while for morning walks the
striped and bordered silk covers are
used. A novel feature inside the new
Cleopatra parasols is a ribbon trim
ming winding around the stretchers
that hold the parasol open as they ra-
date from the stick; when the parasol
is closed these ribbons show beyond
the tips, and cluster of loops is
formed around the stick, giving full,
bunchy effect that is considered very
stylish.
Faille parasols of green or Of gray
shades are made to correspond with
many of the spring stuffs for dresses.
Striped parasols must be striped
around instead of down the breadths,
and those with wide stripes are pre-
ferred. The ferule at the top is very
long, and is pointed in parasols that
have cane handles. Black parasols
have new designs of MORE, palm, ovals,
or large balls on faille grounds. For
mourning are Rhadzimir parasols with
carved ebony sticks. For piazzas
and carriage use in midsum-
mer are white and gold bro
caded silk parasols, or pale old
rose, or blue brocades in leaf and
ostrich feather designs, or else en-
brcidered silk muslin or net is put
