For Lean Women.

"The papers TEEN with advice to stout
women on how to rid themselves of super.
fuous flesh" said woman who is not
stout the other day, but seldom find a
paragraph on the opposite side of the ques-
tion. l should be very glad to take on a
few pounds of avoirdupois, and in recent
visit to my physician l asked him how l
could accomplish it. To begin with, he
said, don't worry; to end with, don't worry,
and between times don't worry. l never
saw thin woman yet,' he went on, who
was not a nervous one, and worry is a large
part of nerves. Stout women are often
nervous as we'll, but thin women are sure to
be So
"When you have become thoroughly
imbued with the desirability of calmness in
all emergencies some other aids to flesh
are plenty of sleep, eight hours out of every
twenty-four at least, and more if you can
get it; moderate, regular exercise and fat
tening foods, such as soups, butter, cream,
farinaceous foods; fat, juicy meats and
plenty of olive oil. Eat often rather than
much at time, take warm baths at night
and don't worry. Utica Herald.

Fritz, ''as an English gentleman of indie

But I've never told you my name, so
how do you know what it is?"
II copied it from milor's portmanteau,"
answered Fritz.
''Why, it isn't on my portmanteau,"
cried Mr.. Smith; "bring the book and let

The book was brought, and Mr.. Smith,
to his amusement, discovered that his

The Health Conference.

New YORK, April 6.-The National
Conference of the State Boards Of
Health was continued to-day after the
discussion Of possible plans for securing
uniform system Of Interstate inspec-
tion, to be adopted in case Of an cpl
demic Of cholera this summer. A num-
Der of new representatives were pres
ent at to-day's conference.
President Mccormick appointed new
committee to try and devise plan TO
cover this very important point. The
committee appointed yesterday failed
to agree upon any practicable plan OF
Interstate inspection, and DR.. Linds-
ley, who opened the debate, expressed
the view that no such plan was possible.
DR.. Vaughan expressed the view that
IL no general system Of interstate in
spection could be devised, the work OF
the conference was failure, as that
was the one thing that had been hoped
to be accomplished by the conference.
He wished the national commission had
not taken the entire matter in hand.
President Mccormick left the chair
to add the weight of his opinion to this
view Of the case. He said there was no
DOUBT that IL the cholera got past the
seaboard stations there would be re-
moval OF State Quarsntlnes, and that 1t
rested largely with the conference
whether these efforts should be as hap
hazard as heretofore, or whether some
Jlan of cooperation with the marine
hospital service could not be devised.
he thought some general rule for inter-
State cooperation should be devised,
and in case of deficiency in powers OF
States, their efforts might be supple
mented by the marine hospital service.

BERING ARBITRATION.
Attorney General Russell and Mr.. ].
C. Carter Make Addresses.
BAD FAITH WAS NOT IMPUTED
By Mr.. Carter, but the Action Of
the British Attorneys in Pre-
senting the Supplementary Re-
port, was an Erroneous Inter
probation ofthe Treaty Of Arbi-
tratiOn.

PARIS, April 6.-The morning ses-
sion of the Boring Sea Arbitration
Court was dull and even the eloquence
of such pleaders as Attorney General
Russell and ]. c. Carter failed to awaken
interest.
Even the members of the Court
seemed bored and 1t was noticed that
the august head Of Sir John Thompson,
one of the British arbitrators, frequent
ly nodded
Sir Charles Russell concluded his ar
gnment in reply to Mr.. E. j. Phelps.
Mr.. Carter followed Sir Charles Rus
sell and was still arguing in behalf OF
the American case when the Court ad-
journed.
In closing his answer to Mr.. Phelps
proposal to exclude the supplementary
report Of the British Bering Sea Com
missioners. Sir Charles Russell con-
tended that the objections of the United
States to the report was on the ground
that it had not been subject to control
or cross-examination, applied equally to
q large mass of evidence in the United
States counter case.
In conclusion Sir Charles Russell
urged upon the arbitrators the neces-
sity OF determining the question OF
right before dealing with the regulation
of the seal fisheries. The British
counsel, he said. would do their utmost
to make this course Of procedure pre-
vail.
In mis- address in reply to Sir Charles
Russell, Mr.. Carter pointed out that
when the United States delegates ar
rived in Paris the cases, as far as ar
gument was concerned, were finished,
and both cases and counter cases had
long been closed. The United States
government, therefore, never imagined
that further evidence would be ad-
duced.
The United States government was
OF the opinion that IL had much reason
to complain OF Great Britain's conduct
in the case, but this had been passed
over. That, however, after the case
mad been submitted, additional evidence
should be brought forward, was con-
tingency which had never been contem-
plated by the representatives of the
American government.
They admitted that further oral ar
gument might be necessary for the pur-
pose Of elucidation, but surprise was
the least of the emotions they expert
enced when the supplementary report
was introduced. They believed that
the only thing to be done was TO return
these documents, as the time for sub
mitting new evidence was long past.
1--WE would not impute bad faith to
the British government" said Mr.. Car
ter, NOR charge the British delegates
with entering upon this case saying
we will teach these Yankees trick
worth knowing At the same time
we hold that our opponents proceeded
on an erroneous Interpretation Of the
treaty Of arbitration"

Special Telegram to The Register.
COLUMBUS, O., April 6.-Governor
Mckinley to-day appointed ex-Secretary
of the Treasury Foster and Joseph
Bishop of this city members Of the State
Arbitration Committee provided Tor un-
der newly enacted law. Mr.. Foster
was appointed as representative
of the employing classes and
Mr.. Bishop as a laboring man as
the law provides. These two are
to select third member. Bishops Sc
lection has created a commotion among
the labor unions. A delegation waited
upon the Senate Committee on labor
matters at noon and asked that the ap-
pointment be not acted upon until they
could find out who Bishop was. Though
he is credited to this city none OF the
labor leaders knew him. 1t is found
that while he was once proml-
nent leader in the Iron and
Steel Workers Union he has not
been active as labor unionist for
ten years. He is now commercial
traveller for a firm Of manufacturing
chemists at Norwich, n. Y. His son
says his father appeared before a ways
and means committee number OF
years ago asking on behalf of working
men higher protection on iron and
steel. He also at that time gave Nc
Kinley data from which he made his
maiden speech on the tariff question.
1t is probable that organized labor will
protest against the nomination and pre-
vent its confirmation; organized labor
is also opposed to Secretary Foster be-
cause of his rulings against Plate print
ers when he was in the Cabinet.

1t is believed that every life was saved,
and every inmate, excepting two men
