HOW TO GROW THIN.
An Easy and Pleasant Way of Reducil

An Easy and Pleasant Way of Reducing
Flesh.
Here is the method pursued by a
plump Philadelphia lady who has been
rounding out at a steadily increasing
rate for the last three years, so that she
became throughly alarmed. Lastsummer
she set forth on her European tour with
the firm intention Of making trip to
Carlsbad to be treated for corpulency.
While en- route, however, she stopped at
Berlin, where she incidentally consulted
physician who recommended her tc
stay right there, saying she could accom-
plish the desired result under his advice
better than at Carlsbad.
When she returned in October with a
trim and dainty figure and minus dis.
figuring double chin, her acquaintance
raised their lorgnettes and their eyebrows
and to her friends she whispered the Sc.
cret. There is no dieting, one may eat
anything at all one chooses, and the
more fruit the better. Liquids, however,
are forbidden, none at all at meals, and
only when demanded by excessive thirst
at other times. Even this isn't so very
bad when one considers that a juicy
orange allays thirst as well as water, and
quantities of fruit, you know, are recon-
mended.
f Then, too, enc must follow q simple
course Of baths. First foot bath, next
day an arm bath and the third day an all
over bath, all as hot as one can stand
them and Ito be continued as long as
necessary. One should always lie down
for half an hour after taking a bath, OF
better still take them before going tc
bed at night. It is not hard, and when
one thinks Of the immense improvement
treaty seems worth the sacrifice, though
when one considers life without count,
less soothing cups Of tea it seems q very
blank sort Of existence indeed-for a
woman, that is. - r.

lie Believes the Democratic Platform,
Is the Cause Of Depression.

Hon William e. Lee, speaker Ct
the house at the last session Of the leg
islature, was caller at the capital
yesterday for the first time since the
adjournment Of the Legislature says
the Pioneer fess. Mr.. Lee does
not believe that the Sherman law is
responsible for the present unsettled
condition OF business. "Cleveland's
administration" said lie, Stands
pledged to wipe out the existing tariff
and to repeal the state bank tax, As
a result the manufacturers are afraid
to continue making goods and capital
is tim'd. With the experience of
former state bank issues still fresh in
memory TIE holders Of foreign secur-
titles at once began to demand gold
settlements Of their claims The re-
peal Of the silver purchase clause will
relieve the government, for it will de-
crease its liabilities, but what will
take its place ?"
Mr.. Lee is,of the opinion that the
Democracy will carry out lis pledges
as to state bank issues.

Gov. Waite Of Colorado is for war,
direful war. In an address at a sill
yer convention held at Denver he
said: IF the money power shall at
tempt to sustain its usurpation by its
strong hand we will meet that issue
when it is forced upon US, for it is in
finitely better that blood should flow
to the horses brides than that our
national liberties should be des-
troyed." It's not fair for Colorado
to get up another rebellion, while the
president is away fishing and when he
has rheumatism too. Perhaps, how
ever, the great Colorado war cloud
will have silver lining.

The late United States minister to
Hawaii, Hon John T.. Stevens, who
was recently given a splendid recep-
ton at Augusta, Maine, on his re-
returning home. was a former partner
OF James G. Blaine in the newspaper
business. The firm was Stevens and
Blaine, editors and publishers Of the
Kennebec Journal. Mr., Stevens
was Blaine's senior in age about ten
years. He took Blaine in as part
ner and did much to introduce him,
as Mr.. Blaine was from Penasyl-
vania and Mr.. Stevens was an old

at Ithaca defeated the crew Of the
University Of Pennsylvania at Phila-

Pennsylvania may lead in brains.
Both, however, are great universities

are probably only second to Harvard,
Yale and the University Of Michigan,

about 1000 students.

The Atlanta Constitution is jubi-
liant over the grand effects Of the
coming Congress. It sings:
SO, the good times are comn,' no matter what
they say;
You kin hear 'em hummn, hummin' for a hun

They're q sailin through the summer an
a-fghtin' through the freeze.

After inspiring the democratic muse
to soar to such lofty flights, that dem
ocratic congress has great duty to
perform that it may not bring bitter
disappointment.

The Review Of Reviews for July very
litly calls attention to our entrance on a
new age-the age OF electricity-in its
three absorbing articles on the newest
marvels and the even more increditable
things to be expected. The great cleo
trical exhibit at the Worlds Fair is de-
scribed by Mr., J. r. Cravath. This
paper is followed by two more under
the title"two Giants. of the Electric
Age" Mr.. c. d. Lallier tell of the per-
socaiity and sketches the picturesque
career of Thomas A. Edison. The in
tervieW with Mr.. Edison presents fully
the great inventors views OF the fur
Their treumphs in electrical science that
are about to come to us. A striking
and picturesque contrast to the Edison
article is Mr.. j. Munro's character
sketch on Sir William Thomson, Lord
Kelvin. MI. Munro tells how Lord
Kelvin made the Atlantic cable possible
and how he invented the best mariners
compass: and the personality of the
great Scotch professor is theme of no
less absorbing interest than his wonder
full achievements in science. All these
articles are profusely illustrated with
portraits and pictures.
