The laws of health are taught in the
schools but not in way to be of much
practical benefit and are never illustrated by
living examples which in many cases might
easily be done. If some scholar, who had
Just contracted cold, was brought before
the school 30 that all could he r the dry,
loud cough and know its significance; see
the thin white coating on the tongue and
later, as the cold developed, see the pro-
fuse watery expectoration and watery dis
charge from the nose, not one of them
would ever forget the first symptoms cold
we're. The scholar should then be given
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy freely, that
all might see that even severe cold could
be cured in one ortwo days, or at least great
ly mitigated, when properly treated as soon
as the frat symptoms appear. This remedy is
famous for it's cures of coughs, colds and
Group. It is made especially for these dis
eases and ia the most prompt and most re-
liable medicine known for the purpose. 90

Mr.. Ibsen's play of "a Dolls House"
had another representation yesterday
afternoon, this time at the Garden Thea
tire, where IL was performed in spirit of
impressive earnestness and with compe-
tent ability by Miss Beatrice Cameron and
other members of Richard Mansfeld's
dramatic company, and where the man
ncr Of its presentation was often applauded
by considerable audiencc-the house
being about half-full. This play is rs
tedious as ever in its strenuous but incon-
elusive ddacticsm, its mawkish domes-
ticity, its cas,iistical reasoning, its un-
wholesome spirit, and its deadly Guinness
OF Commonplace. Here again were the
priggish husband, with his corner.grocery
wisdom; the sick but amoro,is doctor with
the dcCayed spine; the rogue who would
make himself virtuous and respectable by
threatening trouble to fool; and the wife
and mother who had not sense enough to
know that IL is wrong TO lie and swindle,
and that forgery Is crime; and here
again was the futile talk about hercdity
and about female emancipation from stul-
tifying coddle. Not in thirty years of
stage industry (ond during that time many
sorts of vials have been opened) has such
q dose of tainted milk and water been
poured forth upon the public mind. There
is, happily, no need to analyze it. The
subject has two or three times already
been discussed in this place, and the view
that is taken of it in this journal is known
TO every reader who cares about such mat
ters. Yet, the recurrence of such weari-
some and noxious stuff has to be mem
toned, and 1t may Us well be mentioned

II is reported in Washington that even
President Harrison is discouraged about
the Force bill. He may well be. Mr.
HARRISON has shown on this question that,
like General Grant, he can be "a very OBJ
stinate man" But stubbornness will not
make votes, and the trouble with the
Force bill plotters is that they cannot
muster votes enough to carry their obnox-
ious measure through the Senate.
Look at the figures in the case. The
Senate is composed of fifty-one Republic
cans and thirty-seven Democrats, Re-
publican majority Of fourteen. II plain
that if eight of the Republican Senators
vote or pair against the bill, the measure
will be rejected by an adverse majority of
two.
There have been three critical divisions
on the question, those of the 5th the 18th
and the 26th inst. Five Republican SEN
ators-Messrs. Jones and Stewart of Ne
yada, Teller and Wolcott OF Colorado and
Washburn Of Minnesota-have voted with
the Democrats on every one of these di-
visions. To this quintet must now be
added Mr.. Cameron of Pennsylvania,
who in the two earlier divisions voted for
the Force bill, and Mr.. ingalls, of Kansas,
who was absent impaired on both of the
other occasions. Here then are seven of
the eight desertions required for the
wrecking of the bill. Mr.. Stanford of
California may, we think, safely be as
sumed as completing the tale, for, though
he was not counted on either side on
Mondays division, he voted against the
Force bill in both the earlier divisions.

TaiIOrs and Dudes.


II is well-known fact that tailors, more
than most tradesmen, suffer from
plague of customers who do not pay their
bills, and even when they bring suit and
obtain judgment the chances are that
they can wiring nothing from the men
usually young men-who have misued
them. But an association of New York
tailors, including all those who make
garments for the upper ten," have hit
upon device which promises to make
tailors' bills more easily collectible for
the future. They propose to hold an
auction sale ON February 10, in the Real
Estate Exchange, of judgments obtained
in the courts against delinquent debtors,
to the amount of $1,000 or 5000, and this
sale will probably be followed by Others
of a similar character. In this manner
the tailors hope to hold their debtors up
to public scorn. There are many single
bills of $500 and upward, and it is said
that the larger the bills the more promi-
nent are the names.
Success to the tailors in their ingenious
scheme! And in their success all custom
ers who pay their tailors' bills promptly,
if any such exist, are deeply concerned.
As things now are, anybody who pays for
