The foundation OF the habit OF over

three-fourths go TO imperil it."

that by one hours daily exercise for
eight months, twelve men from nine

an average OF nearly three inches in
chest expansion, the greatest gain in a
single individual being hve inches. He
recommends, as an exercise for chest ex-
pansion, forced breathing, by deep, slow
inspirations, holding the breath as long
as possible; long walks, and the use OF
home exercises. He thinks that such
exercise, begun early, would do much TO

A NOTED CASE.
The Palmer Shane Litigation at Last
Ended District Court News.

Inc Palmer-Shane Litigation at Las
Ended-District Court News.
The case of Palmer VS.. Shane which
was dismissed in the district court last
evening with a judgment of costs
against the plaintiff has an interesting
history. 1t has been frequently
alluded to the country over, especially
in financial journals, as an exhibition
of the wonderful workings of Kansas
laws. The history of this case is as
follows: January 20, 1880, Vansant
and wife executed a promissory note
for $3.50 payable five years after date
with interest at 10 per cent per annum
20 the order of Asa c. Palmer; this
note was secured by d mortgage upon
their property. Subsequently Vansant
and wife sold the land to NJ. A. Shane
who punctually paid each interest
coupon as it fell due to I. G. Henry &
Co., who were the agents of Palmer in
placing this loan with other loans in
Kansas. A short time before maturity
of the loan Shane paid it in full to
I. c. Henry & Co., but they failed to
remit the money to their principal and
soon after failed IN business. Palmer
commenced suit to forcelose the mort
gage in the district court of this county
and Shane pleaded payment. The
evidence upon the part of the defend
ant showed COnclusively that T. C. |
Henry & Co. were agents of the mort
gage, Palmer, and had authority from
him TO collect and remit the proceeds |
of the various loans made by him
in Dickinson county, and letter was
produced written by Palmer to Il. G.
Henry & Co. calling their attention to
this particular loan and requesting
them to remit the proceeds. However,
with all this evidence before him,
Judge Nicholson, the so-called friend
Of the poor, down trodden and oppres-
ed mortgagor, gave judgment in favor
of tie mortgage, Palmer, for the full
amount paid T. G. Henry & Co. with
interest. Shane appealed the case to
the supreme court, where the judg-
ment rendered by Judge Nicholson was
reversed. If any of Judge Nicholson's
friends doubt the entire accuracy of
our statement of this case We refer them
to the 43d Kansas Reports at page 4S1,
where it will be found. The case has
now at the request of the plaintiff
been dismissed, admitting that Shane
was in the right.
Following the above case came on
the case of Travellers Insurance Co. vs..
J. II. Brady ct al. 1t is still on trial.
