YaWn all You Please.

ing in good society is an improper
sign of wearyness; according to the
teachings of physiology, it is a
long-drawn, forcible inspiration
followed by a shorter respiration;
according to DR.. Naegeli is is one
of natures many remedies, the
proper application of which de-
ponds upon good judgment.
In yawning, not only the muscles
which move the lower jaw are used,
but also the breathing muscles of
the chest and he who yawns to his
hearts content also raises and ex-
tends the arms. In the deepest
inspiration the chest remains ex-
tended for a short time, the eyes
are almost or entirely closed, the
ears are somewhat raised, the nos
trlls dilated. Inside the mouth
the tongue becomes round and
arched, the palate stifly stretched
and the uvula is raised, almost en-
tirely closing the space between
the nose and throat. At the be-
ginning of the inspiration a crack
ing noise is heard in the ears,
proof that the duct leading to the
hearing also succumbs to this
stretching.
If the yawning has reached the
deepest point it will require from
one to one and half seconds for it
to become noticeable to the hear
ing In order to observe this, let
one place himself at a sufficient
distance from a clock, 80 that it's
ticking will not be easily heard
and yawn deeply. During this
deep breathing the sound of the
clock is not perceptible to the most
careful listening. All this simply
goes to show that yawning sets a
number of muscles to work, and
particularly those which are not
directly subject to the will power.
Although one yawning does not
present a very agreeable appear
ance, it is very agreeable to him
self, for the stretching of the mus
cles causes a feeling of comfort;
it acts like massage, and is the most
natural gymnastics of the lungs
imaginable. DR.. Naegeli, there
fore, advises people not to concern
themselves with so-called decency,
but every morning and evening,
and as often as possible, to exercise
the lungs and all the muscles of
desperation by yawning and stretch
ing, as many chronic lung troubles
many thus be prevented.
DR.. Naegeli orders the patient
troubled with too much wax in the
cal, accompanied with pain, to yawn
often and deeply. The pain will
soon disappear. He also, in the
case of nasal catarrh, inflammation
of the palate, sore throat and ear
ache, orders the patient as often as
possible during each day to yawn
from six to ten times successfully,
and Immediately afterwards to
swallow. The result will be sur
prising. If one looks upon yawn-
ing as natural massage for certain
organs he will reach satisfactory
explanation of its curative pro-
perties. Translated form the Ger
man of Mr.. Julius Stinde.

A SCRAP OF HISTORY.
South Carolina's Ex-Governor on the
Elevation of Hayes.

VI hhHytss
CHARLESTON, S. c., July l1-At the re-
cent congress of charities in Chicago Fred
erick L. Wines delivered n memorial adj
dress in honor of exPresident Hayes, in
which he sought to defend Hayes from the
charge that he was made president in pur-
suanco to bargain to remove the troops
from Louisiana and South Carolina Mr..
Wines denied that there was any bargain;
that Hayes had virtually promised in his
letter of acceptance that he would not ex-
ercise military force to sustain Republican
claimants In the south. The News and
Courier publishes letter from ex-Gov-
ernor Chamberlain denying the truth of
Wines statement, and asserting that
there was bargain, in which Hayes was
cognizant. He concludes his paper as fol-
lows:
"The whole cnse is, in substance, this:
Mr.. Hayes interests as claimant to the
presidency wcse the greatest possible.
They were inextricably bound up with the
interests of his party, of his party friends,
and especially of his leading supporters.
The party was, for the first time since 1860,
on the brink OF defeat. On the other hand,
the interests of the south were all at stake.
The result of their tremendous struggle
was suspended in the balance. The
'shrewd long headed mem of the south.
seeing the uncertainty of the ISSUE and the
anxiety of Hayes and his party, and real
.izing their own stake in the event, fixed
the price of their support at the removal of
the troops Hayes pointed to his letter of
acceptance, no doubt, but tho 'shrewd,
long headed mem of the south negotiated,
winked and nodded, and finally gained the
express promises which the south de-
manded. Hayes knew it all. "

TO DEMAND A REHEARlNG.
DIR. BurtseIl VIII Appeal to Rome for

propaganda. Dr. Burtsell is confident of
success, but many are Of contrary opin-
ion. DR.. Burtsell was tried and con-
demned on charges springing from the
McGlynn troubles.
DIR. Burtsell hopes to convince the
judges in propaganda that these charges
have no foundation in law, because they
depended on the removal of DR.. MeGlynn
from his parish without formal trial. DR..
McGlynn was condemned without hear
ing, which is against the law of the
church, and was excommunicatcd without
q proper trial, to which he was entitled.
The ban put upon his Cooper Union lee
lures depended for its force upon the legal
ity OF removal and communication. But
as these were illegal all consequent acts Of
the authorities, dependent on them, were
illegal.
If this reasoning prevails at Rome not
onlywill Dr. Burtsell get back his parish,
but DIR, McGlynn will also return to st.
Stephens. Archbishop Corrigan is said to
have no apprehension of these reverses.
DR.. McGlynn attended mass last Sun
day, instead Of officiating 1t is not known
IL the bishop of Brooklyn refused him per-
mission to say mass in public, but as this
is within bishops powers it is likely he
did. DR.. McGlynn cannot get permission
to say mass in public in any diocess of
New York or New Jersey.

Clause Nine of the Home Rule Bill
Passes the Committee.
GLADSTONE MOVES THE CLOSURE.

The Premier CnrrIes His Point in Every
Instnnce-A Unionist Who Wished to
Deprive Ireland OF Representation in
the Imperial Parliament Defeated.
LoSDoN, July 1.-THE discussion of the
ninth clause OF the Irish government act,
which relates to the representation in the
imperial parliament of Irish counties and
boroughs, began yesterday in committee
of the whole of the house of commons.
The bill provides for the retention of
eighty Irish members in the imperial par
Lament. a reduction of twenty-three in the
present representation of Ireland.
Mr.. John Redmond, Parnellite, moved
the adoption of an amendment to retain
the Irish representation at its full present
number-103 members.
Mr., Gladstone opposed the motion. The
government, he said, could not go beyond
giving Ireland representation in accord
ance with the proportion of her population,
as compared with that Of Great Britain.
A division taken on the amendment re-
suited in its defeat by vote Of $50 to
266
Edward Heneage, Unionist, moved an
amendment to the effect that the Irish be
excluded entirely from the British house
of commons
Mr.. Gladstone replied that the retention
of Irish members would prove the means
of reassuring doubters as to the expert
ment of home rule. After further discus
sion by Joseph Chamberlain and Mr. Bal.
four, Mr. Gladstone, amid derisive opposi-
ton cheers, moved the closure. 1t was
carried by a vote of 24l to 2ll.
The division on the amendment caused
considerable excitement, as it was reported
that the Radicals as well as the Parnell
ties were likely to go with the opposition
The only Radical who voted against the
government, however, was Henry Labou'
chcre. The Parnelites fulfilled expecta
tion by supporting the amendment, as did
the McCarthyites The result was the re
lection of the amendment by vote OF 24(
