Old Wives and Young Husband

Old Wives and Young Husbands
Boston Herald.
A curious fact for the physiologist's
inves tigation is the premature aging
of old women's young husbands. The
young man who marries q woman
twenty years his senior by the time
he is we'll in his 40s looks 90, while
the young woman who weds the
same disparity of years keeps her
youth as long as her temperament
and disposition permit. When the
Baroness Burdett Coutts married her
very youthful spouse, Mr.. Bartlett,
she was well.preserved spinster of
sixty odd. Now the gallant Mr..
-Coutts, as he Is called, looks
it is said, fully up to that, while the
Baroness, who is close upon so, looks
as bright and as energetic as in
middle life. There is no preservation
of health equal to good heart and
an ample fortune, and the aged wife
of the ambitious young American is
distinguished for both of these pos
sessions. Old age can be held at bay
until the very end, as Ninon de pEn-
clos career bears witness, but the
conditions must he favorable, and
the years must be we'll gilt. Poverty
never Kept any woman young, yet,
after all, perhaps there is q good deal
of justice in the averaging of time,
and this premature aging of men
who marry thus for wealth and posi-.
ton is but the double interest fate
eXacts from its debtors

A PhiIanthropIc Merchant.

Any one who has happened to he in
the neig hborhOOd of q factory or mer-
camille establishment, where large
numbers of girls are employed, about
the time the employees are leaving
work for the day could hardly have
tailed to remark the large proportion
OF narrow chests aud round shoulders,
often to the verge of deformity, that
are exhibited. That steps are seldom
taken by employers to mitigate in any
way the evil effects of the close con :
tinement and constrained position on
the health and anatomy of CROWN
girls brings out in all the brighter
contrast the commendable example of
Boston merchant, who has opened q
gymnasium for his female employees,
where the receive, free of cost, profess
siOnal instructions in the art of phys
ical exercise.
The classes are free to all who
choose to avail themselves of the priv.
ilege, and daily instruction is given
between the hours of and 6 in the
afternoon. Already 800 girls have
Joined the class, and many more are
awaiting the verdict of their sisters
on the new departure Those who
have tried the exercise are enthusiast
tic as to its benefits, and say that the
tired feeling caused by close confine
ment in the store soon gives place to
one of elasticity and freshness.
This Boston philanthropist looks
forward to the time when a gymna-
SUM will be attached to every large
business establishment where women
are employed, and 1t is earnestly to be
hoped that his dream will soon be
realized.

Justice Courts,

Justice Heron this morning was
called to hold o coroner's inquest on
the remains of an infant of Lulu
Stewart, q colored woman, living
back of the Southern Pacific railway
roundhouse, between Ord and Cros by
streets. The woman, who is unmar-
ried, gave birth prematurely to the In
fant, which was only aged about + 1.2
months. and it lived only few min
utes. The mother stated that she
was severely frightened Saturday by
little girl, who came into her room
suddenly to speak to her.
Justice Adam had no other business
today except three forcible entry and
detainer suite, as follows:
Caspar Knuesle VS.. Jack Koran,

premises ordered by Thursday.

dict for plaintiff and restitution Of

To Resuscitate the Drowning.

To Resuscitate the Drowning.
Everybody may be called upon to
afford assistance to drowned persons
while the doctor is being sent for, "
says the London Daily News, "and
Prof. Laborde's simple method for re.
storing breath when all other means
have failed deserves to be universally
known. The other day, at a watering
place in Normandy, two bathers, a
young mau and boy, who were I'm.
able TO swim, went out of their depth
and disappeared. They were brought
on shore inanimste, and were taken
to the village. Two doctors were sent
for, but the young man gave no sign
of life, and they declared he was dead
M. Lsborde, who was fishing at half
an hours distance, came up as soon
as he heard of the accident. He ex-
amined the body, and found that the
extremities were cold and the heart
had stopped. Then, taking hold OF
the root of the tongue, he drew it
violently forward, giving it success
sion of jerks in order to excite the re-
t1ex action of the breathing apparatus,
which is always extremely sensitive.
At the end Of q few minutes q slight
hIccough showed that the patient
was saved. In addition to the usual
restorative means, Prof. Laborde, in
extreme cases, rubs the chest with
towels soaked in nearly boiling
water"

The direction of the currents lie

Dangers of Gong Under Niagara.

Dangers of Gong Under Niagara.
Philadelphia Times.
All who have ever gone under Mag.
ara alls will understand how Mr.. Ma
sou cashier of the International Trust
Company, Of Boston, was lost by be-.
ing swept from his feet in the Cave of
the Winds, and they will not think
him ioOlhardY more than others who
take the same risk. Although
women make the trip in safety it may
confidently be asserted that there is
no adventure; not even going up in a
balloon, that is attended with greater
danger than this same trip under
Niagara Falls, The guides invariab.
ly fOrtlty themselves With not less
than pint of whisky before making
it, and the oldest of them, the one
who took Prof. Tyndal through, told
the writer that there was hardly a
yard of the way but one false step
would sweep whoever made it into
eternity.
Few who have not made the trip
under Niagara realize that half the
distance Is waded through water up
to the knees or waist; that the cur
rent of this water is so strong that It
will sweep any but q strong man
from his feet, and that women are
usually carried through it. What
adds the peril is that the noise is too
great to hear word, and the mist
can scarcely be seen. Though it is
grand; whoever goes under Niagara
rails should know that the guide has
his life in his hands.

SHORT STOPS.
What the People are Saying

The drought has been broken and a
more cheerful feeling prevails In bust.
ness circles. The old town is filling
up; vacant houses are finding tenan Is
and every one is convinced that the
future otour city is bright with pros
perity.
Politics Is the common topic with
the people, but rest assured the old
ship of state has not broken loose
from its mornings; the people are
sound; they demand honesty and in
tegrity in public stations.
The jugglery practiced in the past
will find little favor In the coming
political struggle. A strict watch up.
on the ballot box is the general de.
mand.
The new registration and ballot law
meets the desire of intelligent citizen
ship; any attempt to Dullify this act
will meet with universal condemna-
ton. The people demand an honest
ballot.
The people must aCquaint themselves
with the new election law; the vest
pocket voter must carry his ticket in
his head.
A great change is coming over our
political horizon; the intelligent mass.
'es must Oe prepared TOR it.
The republican party offers to the
people of this city and section the |
surest and best policy for commercial
and business success. Let us lend |
our energies:to contribute to the sue.
cess of that party.

Not His Kind.

A German one day expressed himself
as being somewhat offended because an
American gentleman had asserted that
his Teutonic countrymen could not as a
rule appreciate American jokes.
TRY one on me, said he defiantly,
and the American accordingly told him
the story of the tree ''out west" which
was so high that it took two men to see
to the top. One OF them saw as far
as he could. and then the second began
to look at the spot where the first stopped
seeing.
The recital did not raise the ghost OF
a smile upon the Germans face, and the
other said to him:
"Well, you see the Joke is lost on Won.
You can't appreciate American hHmor.
''Oh, but" said the German, ''dat's
