Houston whence the letters came, noticing
that the subject seemed delicate.
Sir Charles Russelfs cross examination of
Houston was a forensic masterpiece. Much
sensation followed the bringing out of Hous-
tors destruction of all Pigott's letters and
documents at Pigott's request, and Pigott's
dest. .net.on of Houston's letters after both
had heen subppnacd by the other side.
Pigott told Houston several names in con-
nection with the letters but on cross exami-
nation MI the persons named were found 10 be
dead, or dynamiters who dare not appear.
Houston had thus destroyed, after the COM
mission opened, the only contemporary rec

the principal matter under inquiry.
Pigott expects his ercss examination TO last
several days He suffers from a valvular
disease of the heart, and has been heard to
say 1t is possible he may break down under
the excitement of the witness box.
Mr.. Parnen was present at the session of
the PaInel. commission. The cross exanina-
tion of Secretary Houston was continued.
The witness said that he did not consider
that knowledge of the men from whom the
letters were obtained was important in con-
nection with their genuineness. He had no
means of testing any part of Pigott's story.
He admitted showing the letters to Lord
Harrington, whose advice he asked. Lord
Harrington, however, declined to advise him.
The witness said that when he was in Paris
he did not have genuine specimens of Par
nelrs or Egan's writing. He accepted the
letters solely on Pigotts word.
In answer to question, the witness said:
"f Pigott had been needy or fraudulent
enough to attempt perjury, my action would
have assisted him.

Spinal Curyatures.

Spinal curyatures of the one-sided SORT,
which throw a hip or shoulder out of
line, come not from the disease of the
bone so much as weakness of one set of
muscles or overuse of one side, which
gradually draws the bone into distor
ton. But the same influence which
caused the deformity may effect its
cure. 1t is simply to establish traction
of the muscles on the opposite side,
which will in time draw the bones into
place. Plaster jackets and stiff sup
porters have their uses, but it is equally
possible to cure spinal curvature with
out such rigid methods Indeed, severe
treatment of any kind for child may
be thrown aside as worse than useless,
unless in one case of a thousand. The
traction of linen brace, good nutrition
and the exercise of the movement cure.
combined with easy sings and swings
devised by physicians, will cure the
worst lateral curvatures In year or
two, and lighter cases in few months.
Little faults of position, standing on one
foot too much, sitting one-sided, wear
ing narrow-heeled shoes, may strain the
muscles SO as to produce spinal curv-

True American.

Emile was little boy born in New
England of French Canadian parents.
His father and mother loved their own
race and language, as these people gen.
orally do. When talking together,
they always spoke in French, and En-
lies two sisters, older than himself,
were apt to do the same when talking
with them.
Not so Emile. They could not get
him to speak French. When spoken to
in that tongue he never failed to reply
i'll English.
The only exception to this rule was
in his prayers, which had been taught
him in French when he was a baby, and
which his mother supervised nightly;
but even his prayers did not long re-
main an exception, for by and by he
began to attend the public school, and
at the same time a Catholic Sunday
school, where pupils and teachers, be-
ing mainly of Irish descent, spoke only
English.
At the end of his second attendance
at Sunday school he had mastered his
prayers in English, and that very night
astonished and shocked his mother Ey
refusing to say them in French.
cit is no use, mother" he said, in an
swer to her expostulations, Il don't be-
lieve God knows anything about French,
for if He did, somebody in this great
big country would talk it. I don't want
to be Frenchman; I want to be a
Yankee"
"Ah!" exclaimed his mother. "It is
as the priest used to say; we lose our
language and ourselves by coming here!"
If only Emil's spirit was shared by
some other foreigners, who become
American citizens, but remain clannish
to the third and fourth generations!

Storage Of Life.

Within each ton of coal was stored,
long before the creation of man, def
mite amount of heat, which, by the
chemical process of combustion, may be
made available for mans use. A barrel
of wheat contains q fixed amount of
food. Electricity can now be stored,
and bought and sold in measured guam
tity.
Each person has definite amount of
stored life, normally equal to about 100
years; but, in most cases, our ancestors
have squandered much that should have
come to us, and we ourselves waste not
little that we have actually inherited.
This wasting of our store of life is as
serious thing as it is common. It
may be done thoughtlessly or ignor-
antly, but the waste is just as irretriev-
able. Tens of thousands of children
die annually, and as many more survive,
with sadly wasted vitality, simply be-
cause their mothers do not exercise
enough care in the matter of food,
clothing, pure air, and sunshine.
Our schools waste this store by draw
ing too largely on the brain and nerves
of their pupils through the competitive
systems, the worry Of public ex-
amir ations; through exacting the same
tasks of the bright and of the dull, and
through lack of adequate and persistent
attention to the sanitary condition of
the school-rooms.
Some parents allow their children to
waste their supply of nerve force by the
incessant reading of sensational books.
or by frequent attendance at exciting
evening parties, and some by not insist
ing on regular and sufficient sleep.
Women waste it by overwork and
worry in their homes, and it is a very
rapid waste. Gay young ladies and
fast young men waste it at fearful rate
in their rounds of pleasure Only next
is the waste of high-living, conjoined
with excessive devotion to business.
Of all the professions, the medical
wastes the life-store most rapidly by IL.
regular and broken sleep, night expos
ure, and the constant drain on the sym.
pathies and the nervous system. 1t
seems pity that those whose great
work is to save and prolong the life OF
others should have to do it at the ex,
pense of their own.-Youth's Con,pa7a.

Chinese Cheap Labor.

The Chinese cities are bee-hives of
work. The streets are made up of cells
open at the front and full of manufac-
turers and traders. Everything is done
by hand and the working hours are from
daylight till dark. I have made in
quiries into wages, and 1 find them so
low that they would hardly pay for the
tobacco and coffee of our American
laborers. Coolies employed in foreign
families get as low as So. so month and
board themselves. Skilled cooks re-
ceive 81 month, and at Foo Chow, one
of the wealthiest Cinnamon of the city
told me that the wages of masons were
Is cents day, and the best carpenters
receive but 20 cents. Women engaged
in making grass cloth, sort of linen,
are paid from two to three cents day,
and an old missionary tells me he can
get ten men to work whole day for
dollar and leave 10 per cent. to the man
who hires them for him. Here in Can
ton the chief means of conveyance is by
chair. The chairs is made of wicker
and covered with cloth, so that they
look like box. This box is swung in
the center between two long poles, and
one man walks in front with two poles
resting on his shoulders and another
walks behind, holding up the chair in
the same way. The regular native
wages for such men is 81 month and
less, and in the interior the prices are
still lower. Ordinary field hands get
from three to four cents day with food,
and skilled workmen receive from five
to six cents. Doctors who often get as
high as 20 cents visit in the cities
often come down to 10 cents visit in
the country, and engravers and painters
receive from ten to twelve cents day.
Theater actors are paid proportionate
low rates, and there are no $4,000
night PATHS or Henry Irvings in China.
The theaters, you know, last all day and
half the night, and troup of thirty
players will play for forty-eight hours
for $50. Silk weavers and silk reelers
are among the highest paid men, and
their work can only be done when the
cocoons are ready for Keeling. During
this time the men work for weeks, day
and night, and they receive from one to
two dollars day. The grand average
of skilled labor runs, however, about as
follows: Master workmen receive So
week, or $156 year, and workmen
under these $1.50 week, or $78 year.
Youngsters and females get 80 cents
week, and these are considered good liv-
ing wages. For them the laborer does
not growl as to the hours of work, and
the labor unions of China regulate the
hours only in the case of men working
by the piece and not by the day
