small Feet and Hands New Thlnr..

An interesting fact was brought ont
at the historical exhibition in Paris,
where specimens of gloves were seen
dating back to those OF she Grecian en-
pire. The sizes of those gloves were
proof indisputable that among the
bellies Of ancient days, ard even those
of the middle ages, the tiny hands so
common among the women of to-day
were entirely unknown. A visit to the
Hohenzollern museum will convince
any one that the small foot was equally
rafe in earlier times, and that, Judging
from their slippers, the feet Of the fam
Gus Prussian queens aud princesses
would do credit to n dandy in the gren-
adler guards. Only the beautiful Queen
Louise possessed delicate and pretty
feet the satin shoe belonging 10 her
lamented and revered majesty seeming

Augusta and the No. wedding slippers

A well dressed lady entered a west.
ern book store and inquired; "IIave
you shakespeare's 'Hiawatha?" The
salesman, astonished, hesitated, and
then replied that they had Longfel-
lows "iiawatha," and that he was not
acquainted with work with that title
written by Shakespeare. The lady,
seeing that she had made n mistake,
but wishing to conceal IL, asked, some
what petulantly: DO you not keep
Shakespeare's complete works in
stock?" Two editions were shown her;
she looked through both. but of course
failed TO find "IIiawatha" Noting the
fact that one was printed in somewhat
more solid type than the other, she said
TO the salesman: well, shall not
take either edition this morning. but
will be back this afternoon TO take one;
and am undecided now whether TO
take the one in poetry or the one In
prose. Publishers Weekly.

PHYSICAL EXERCISE.
The Value Of a Thoroughly Trained Mu.cu
lar system.

The Value Of a Thoroughly Trained Mu.cu-
lar system.
A good set Of muscles Is one of the
most excellent qualifications which n
young man can possess There Is no
position in life for which they unfit
him, and there Is none which they will
not enable him to an 20 better adj
vantage than he otherwise could do.
There are a thousand and one emerg-
eneies in life in which strong, vigorous
and well-trained muscles are OF enor-
nous service, and in which their use
NAV be of incalculable value
Physical exercise gives better COM
mand of the whole body; aud when
properly conducted trains both sides
OF the body alike, and so almost doubles
the efficiency OF the muscles A man
who has been trained In the ordinary
way, really uses his left side but very
little. Everything requiring skill,
strength or deNterity must be done
with the right hand. Even the right
limb usually has enough more training
10 make II a little larger than the left.
The extra amount of work done by the
right side of the body results In in
creasing the strength of the muscles of
this side, and in deformity OF the spine,
which is made TO curve toward the left
side, causing the right shoulder 10 drop
little. There is probably not more
than one person in four who does not
have this deformity.
With proper physical training both
sides OF the body will be equally de
veloped and should be equally useful
A man who is ambidextrous, or able TO
use both hands equally well, will not
only be able TO do more work in day
or In year than n man who can en-
ploy but one hand, but in the case of
the loss of one hand he does not meet
with so utter and complete loss as the
man who loses his one trained hand.
Even the brain and nerves share in
the benefits derived from muscular
training When n muscle contracts il
is in obedience to the impulses origin
ated in the brain, sent to the muscles
along nerve trunk. Hence, muscular
exercise also implies exercise OF the
brain and nerves. The same law which
produces muscular growth as the re-
suit Of exercise, applies also to the ex-
ercise OF the brain and nerves Hence,
muscular exercise, instead Of detracting
from mental development, as might DO
supposed, actually encourages the de-
velopment of the brain and increases
its capacity for action This Is un-
doubtedly the reason why muscular
exercise has so marked an effect in
steadying the nerves, giving to one self.
command, mental equipoise and readi-
ness. Nothing so well prepares one
for readiness of action in emergencies
as thorough training of the muscles -

which they have been placed None
regretted il more than they. and none
have been more anxious for the dawn
Of better things
To-day we all rejoice that the day Of

era has opened.
The census reports just received are
most encouraging They show that
the 4.755 children enrolled in the public
schools in isso have increased In the

been but - per cent, the gain In the
enrolment has been 2SS per cent, or
ten times as great This. Il must be
recollected, has resulted without the
aid OF any Of the recent educational
Legislation.
That legislation of itself Is Of rare
excellence and cannot but produce re-
suits of the utmost Importance
Two years ago three great territorial
institutions were established, the uni.
versity at Albuquerque, the agricultural
college at Las Cruces and the school OF
The rustler., 1891-10-16

mines at Socorro; the first intended TO
provide for higher education OF gen
eral character, and the others to give
give special instruction in those
branches OF learning most important to
our people Through the large bene-
factions of the general government the
agricultural college has been enabled
TO enter upon its active career of use
fulness much earlier than could have
been hoped; and the buildings of both
the other institutions are in course of
construction.
The more important subject of the uni
versal education of the people, through
n comprehensive system of public
schools, not only received careful con-
sideration, but was legislated upon in
n most satisfactory manner during the
recent session. The laws then passed
are intended TO place within the reach
of every child that necessary amount of
knowledge which will enable him To
compete on fair terms with his breth-.
rem of other states in the struggle of
life. This is Just and right, and was
due to all our sons and daughters As
remarked in my message to the legis-
lature: "The boy or girl sent out into
the world in these days without educa-
tion is like mechanic without tools, or
a laborer without hands He has no
fair chance In the battle of existence;
he is doomed 10 disaster and defeat be-
fore he enters the conflict; he is SEN
fenced in advance TO be a hewer of
wood and drawer of water for his edu-
Gated neighbor all his days Without
the means 10 rise, his lot is that OF toll
or Of degradation to his lifes end. No
parent has a right to destroy the pros
poets of his children in this way; no
community does its duty which does
not provide that every boy and girl
shall have the education necessary 70 a
successful Life.
II you fail to establish = complete
system at this legislative session, the
two years before another opportunity
occurs, will carry many boy and girl
beyond the age when it will be avail
able, and they will be launched upon
the sea of life, not only at a constant
disadvantage in every business. but
subject to the deception and the shame
which Ignorance everywhere entails
Such failure would be more even than
u crime against the young lives SO
wronged and sacrificed; IL is a crime
against the whole community. IN re-
public, where government is .of the
people and by the people," there
can be no security for society at
large, unless the whole body of citi-
Eens have a sufficient education 10
enable them 10 exercise the right of
suffrage with intelligence. The stream
can rise no higher than its source. In
a free government the people are the
source of power; II they are ignorant
and uneducated they easily become the
prey of designing men and the dupes of
There Is no safety In a
republic but in the universal education
OF the people,"
Surely we may rejoiee that such
words are no longer needed; the work
Is accomplished. and all that was sought
for, secured. The system inaugurated
by the late legislature will reach to
every precinct and give equal oppor-
tunity for instruction to every child.
Another year will see our enrolln,ent
Increased three-fold, and such thing
IS illiteracy among the rising genera
hon will soon be entirely unknown.
