How Women should sit.

LtuleS' liOule JOURNAL.
Women Who sit With their legs crossed
to sew or to read, or to hold the baby,
are not aware that they are inviting seli.
Gus physical ailments but it is true,
nevertheless. When a man crosses his
legs he places the ankle of one limb
across the knee of the other and rests 1t
lightly there. A woman, more modest
and restricted in her movements, rests
the entire weight Of one limb on the up
per part of the other and tins pressure
upon the sensitive nerves and cords, if in
dulged in for continued lengths of time,
as is often done by ladies who sew or en-
broider, will produce disease. Sciatica
neuralgia. and otL er serious troubles fire.
quently result from this simple cause.
The muscles and nerves in tho upper por-
ton of a woman's legs are extremely sem
sitive, and much of her whole physical
structure can become deranged If they are
overtaxed in the manner referred to.

THE REPUBLICAN DILEMMA.

EX.Speaker Carlisle in the May Forum
says; 1.-The Republican party came into
power burdened with Obligations which it
finds itself unable to discharge, and the
most difficult problem it now has to solve
is how to reward its friends and pay even
small part of ITS political debts without
running the country. When out Of power
it promised everything to everybody; but
there is not money enough to 90 around,
and us no one is willing TO be left out of
the distribution or even to reduce his
claim, the situation has become quite Sc
rious. II has promised to taxpayers that
it would reduce taxation, and it has prom
iscd the soldiers and the subsidy
hunters that it would increase the
expenditure. 1t cannot do both and
it dare not refuse to do either. 1t
has promised the friends of silver that
it would help them to remove the restric
tions now imposed, or the advocates of
the gold standard that it W ould do moth
ing TO depreciate the value or interfere
with the stability of our currency. In
vain effort to keep both Of these pledges.
it proposes to convert the Treasury De-
partment into warehouse for the storage
of silver bullion, and to issue receipts to
be used as money. This is the only new
financial policy it has so far developed,
but its resources are not yet exhausted,
and if the demands of the discontented be-
come sufficiently strong, we may have
paper promises topay issued upon deposits
of wheat and corn, or upon farm mort
cages. 1t will be difficult to satisfy the
plundered and impoverished farmer thet
his claim upon the bounty of the Govern
ment is not as just as the claims of the
prosperous owner of silver mines or the
wealthy owner of ships.

A Lucrative way to Discipline Boys.

To The Editor OF the JohnStotgn DenlOcrdt.:t
The local agent of corporation which
is international in scope, and which has
a monopoly in this town, bas discovered
novel, and to him lucrative way, of
disciplining the small boys under his
charge, these boys are paid the munifcent
salary of SO per month Cess than two dol
lars per week. for working from 1880 A.
NJ. till Up. NJ. The boys range in age from
about twelve to fifteen years an are all the
sons of widows, and are full of youthful
pranks of bo, of that age. In order to
curb this disposition to loiter, the boys
are fined in sums ranging from
twenty-five cents to one dollar for
various offenscs, the amount of
these fines is deducted from their salaries
at the end of each month, the boys, how
ever, being compelled to sign vouchers
for the full amount of their pay, which
show the way the fines go. DUNG last
week, the night of the circus, the boys
went to the show about o'clock, were
mulcted in the sum of seventy five cents
each, this, with otfe er fines, amount
ing in the case of $3.50 was deducted
from their pay. One of them, Michael
Fitzsimmons, of Cambria, promptly quit
the service of the company yesterday,
after signing the pay roll tor full months
salary and receiving three fourtns of it,and
his parents threaten to bring suit for the
full amount unless it be paid, which they
certainly could do and get judgment as
anything of this kind is clearly illegal.

THE House of Representatives has
passed the River and Harbor bill, appro-
prating something like $50, 100000 the
exact amount being at present ureported.
This was probably expected by all who
watch the progress of legislation, but the
tacking on of the Hennepin Canal enter
prise was not so generally expec ed 1t
IS very generally believed that this pr5-
ject is not so much for the benefit of nav
igaton and commerce as to aid certain
contractors and tighten the burdens of
local taxation.

AT EBENsBURG.

Desperate Attempt of Joseph wherry, OF
Wilmore, to Escape the Clutches of the
Lava Jump of Twenty-seven Feet
without Injury to HimseIf-Court Left
Alone, Adjourns Until the People Re-
turn After the Prisoner is Recaptured.
Special to the JohnStoton Democrat
EBENsBURG, Pa, June 4. This place
was in high state of excitement this
afternoon. Joseph Wherry who was
convicted of stealing Joseph Horner's
horse at Wilmore, jumped from the Court
Room window when the jury's verdict
was announced. The height is twenty
seven feet, but he was not hurt, and in
moment he was making tracks rapidly in
an effort to escape.
To say that there was a turbulent scene
in the Court room would be a mild ex
preston for the state of things. Half
those present ran to the windows while
others made for the stairs. The Court ad-
journed perforce Of circumstances, until
the prisoner was brought in, uninjured,
but out of breath.
Wherry had got one-fourth of mile be-
fole he was overtaken by the small army
of pursuers, which under the influence of
the hot sun was beginning to grow less in
numbers as the race drew to close.
Court had been moving along without
an unusual incident of any kind until this

MONEY FOR POOR Lo."

Harper's Weekly.
The Indian Commissioner has asked for
an increase of about $500, 900 over the APP
preparation for the current year for the
maintenance of Indian education. For
many years, beginning with 1876, there
was an annual average increase of 70 per
cent. in appropriations for this purpose,
but for the last five or six years there has
been practically no increase, and in 1887
even reduction. The Commissioner is
but doing his duty in reminding us that
If the Indian children are to be made
self-supporting citizens, and not continued
as dependent pauper wards of the Govern
ment, this educational work must be done.
and Congress ought not to hesitate to pro.
vide for it adequately.

offer reward for the murderer of the
Crouches, They made the reward 81 900,

SOME foolish criticism has been directed
against Gen. Harrison because he refused
to kiss a baby at Pittsburgh the other
day. The critics forget that there is no
constitutional provision requiring the
President to kiss babies. Moreover, the
Indiana Humane Society has sent out
circulars requesting parents and guardians
not to offer their babies to Gen. Harrison
for honorary or decorative osculation.
The Humane Society is afraid that babies
admitted to the honor of the Presidential
osculation would catch cold.-N Y. San.
