directed physical training can accom-
plish; while the sixth one, giving in
pounds the strength of back, is very
noteworthy. For instance, No. is
young lady whose strength has in
creased in six months from 40 pounds
to 225; No.2 has gone from $50 pounds to
nearly 210; No. from about rs to about
235; No. s from 1S0 to nearly $50, and
so on.
The last table, recording the strength
of legs. shows very considerable aver
age gain, although by no means one
that is without exceptions; for while
some Of the young ladies would seem to
have risen to the point of fitness for adj
mission to a football team, several
others show decline rather than gain.
it is not unlikely that in these cases the
dIminution of strength may be due to
the fact these particular young ladies,
whom it should be remembered are
freshmen, were accustomed to more
walking before entering college than
after, so that their moderate amount of
gymnasium exercise has not been Suffi-
Gent to neutralize the loss of strength
due to lessened use of the locomotive
members.

its causes, amount of extra study carried
on, hours of exercise before entering
college, hours of exercise after entering
college, time lost from college on ac-
count OF illness, amount of time spent in
the gymnasium. average age of students
as compared with general health, paren-
tai nativity as compared with general
health, and finally in turn the health of
parents, resemblance to parents, hered-
itary tendency. fathers occupation,
nervousness, sleeplessness, hours Of
sleep, college study, college worry,
hours of exercise and use of gymna-
sum, all as compared with general
health--such are some of the headings
under which Miss Wood collates most
elaborate statistical data regarding all
the students who enter Wellesley col
lege.
Nothing could better exhibit the
nature and the results of the work Miss
Hill and Miss Wood are doing than the
series of tables showing the records, of
forty freshmen who used the gymna-
SUM forty-tive minutes in the day time
three times per week for six months
during the fall and winter of 1S9l-92.
Miss Hill instructed these freshmen
under the Swedish system of gyinnas-
tics. Miss Wood made the measure
ments at the beginning and at the end
of the six months period, and arranged
the tables.
In each table the dotted lines repre-
sent the measurements of the students
as taken IN November, 1891. The con-
tinuous lines represent the same stu
dents in May, 1892. Otherwise the tables
are self-explanatory, the figures at the
bottom merely referring to the students
as taken numerically from one to forty.
Thus. beginning with the first table on
the girth of chest, glance shows that
No. 3's measurement, which was 2S.5
inches in November, was 30.5 in May
almost every on5 of the forty having
made very appreciable increase.
The second table, showing the depth
of chest, marks decided increase In
every case without exception. The third
table, denoting in pounds the strength
of chest, also shows marked gains in
nearly every instance. The fourth table,

Gates some remarkable gains.

shoulders, also shows in an extremely

New York Sun.
Certain sins of omission and commits
sion there are for which there is neither
forgiveness nor abs6ution.
A woman will forgive the man she
loves for souandering her fortune, de-
stroyIng her peace of mind. diShonorlng
the name he has given her, but woe be
unto him If he forgets to kiss her good
by when he goes down town Ill the
morning.
He may take off his coat. roll up bis
shirt sleeves, take week off for it, buy
flowers, bon-bons, theater tickets, be so
good and penitent that he doesn't know
himself and has TO be introduced to his
mirror every morning-he can't make
that right until the crack of DOOM She
never forgiveS and forgets that, even if
she says she does.
Another objectionable sin is to spell
a mans name wrong. You may tread
on his toes, steal his umbrella, cheat
him, give him the wrong points on the
races, but don't spell his name wrong if
you desire him for friend.
A woman never forgives the man for
criticising her perfume; man hates
the fellow that runs down the brand OF
cigars he likes.
A woman may forgive the man who
puts his umbrella down where it will
drip all over her in the car; she never
forgives the woman that sits down next
to her with dress that Spoils hers.
A little woman rather likes to be
called a pussy or chicken by big,
good-natured man, but she never for
gives him if he calls her cat Or an old
hen.
She never forgives the woman that
coaXes her servants away by offering
them better wages, or the woman who
knows her age and tells it, or the woman
the man she likes admires and praises,
or the woman who always looks a little
finer, dresses a bit handSomer, does
things shade better than she can her
self.
We all know that woman and hate
her, while we smile into her eyes and
kiss her good-by. acknowledging our
selves her inferior. No woman sits
down and bewails her inability to
wear the Astor diamonds, or to rival
the famous beauties of the world.
but it is the woman who buys one more
gown than we can afford, who keeps
two servants when we have only one,
who fades our pinks with her roses, and
dulls our charms with her graces whom
it is hard to forgive as we would be for
given.

The carriage arrived next day boxed
up with as much care as though it had
been crate of china or a racing bicy-

box.
Mrs. Jones had always declared that
her husband was stupid in doing work
about the house, but she made no re-

the baby carriage together.
He succeeded finally in unpacking
the carriage and wheels, though in do
ing so he nearly smashed his thumb
with hammer. He screwed OH the
wheels, and then setting the carriage
up examined his work with a critical
eye.
Certainly the vehicle had peculiar

around in a circle, as a duck swims

Jones was mad clean through. He
had the carriage put in the cellar and
wrote to the firm from which lie had
purchased it to send man to take their
"lopsided swindle" away.
Jones hadn't cooled off when man
came to look at the carriage. The man
listened patiently to Jones opinion of

Jones begged the man not to say any
thing about it, and gave him some good
cigars and opened bottle OF fine old

One of the stock arguments of a de-
cade ago against the collegiate educa-
ton of young woman, writes Albert
Shaw. in the Review of Reviews, was
the contention that they were phys
ically disqualified for The severe nerv-
Gus and mental strain entailed by the
ordeal Of four years devotion to the
kind of studies that their brothers
could pursue with impunity.
The whole answer to the question, is
the health or the average. young woman
equal to the successful prosecution of
the work of college course? may be
given in the brefeSt terms as follows:
The first duty of the college authorities
is to give just as careful physical eX-
animation for original entrance as their
examination into the applicants schol-
arly proficiency; and their next duty,
the applicant having been admitted, is
To see that cher advancement is SOM
metricaI, and that she is led across the
threshold of mature womanhood, as we'll
equipped by reason of bodily strength
and development, for the full enjoy
ment of LIES pleasures, tasks and vari-
Gus wholesome activities.
In the future the question whether
or not young woman's health is quite
as safe at college will be absurd upon
its face. 1t will be absurd because one
of the definitions Of woman's college
will be place where the health of a
young woman is sedulouSly and scien
tifically guarded and where her phys
ical strength and we'll being are sys
tematically developed.
Tangible progress toward this ideal
has been made within very few years,
but as yet we have only q beginning.
The colleges for young men have quite
generally provided gymnasium facilities.
and the larger ones have appointed
competent instructors in physical cult
ure. None of them has as yet had
sufficient and plain common sense to
make the acquisition and maintenance
Of good health cardinal and compulsory
part of the college course. But our
educational men will come TO this point
In due season.

Frightfully Good.

There are some very pious people in
Washington. You might not suspect it,
but it is nevertheless true.
These people have entered on crusade
against the Sunday ice cart. There must
be no delivery of ice on the first day Of
the week. The rumble of the clumsy
cart must not be heard in the streets to
excite the delicate nervous system of the
altogether too religious.
When man is so awfully good that
he can't drink ice water on Sunday, his
case becomes serious, and a consultation
of eminent physicians ought to be had at
once.
There are folks so oddly constituted
that they have the hysteria over Sun
day ice cart, but are a little bit too
shrewd in horse trade on Monday 1t

Make Their Lives Miserable.
NJ. +. Harris entered suit in the
Thirty-seventh district court late

cruel treatment towards her.
The wife alleges that during the
