Iss,heti. Tastes in Common.
There was d big crush, as usual. to
see the picture Niagara in Winter.
A steady stream of art critics climbed
to the third story of the great e,npc
rum where it is exhibited, and al
though it wa yet early in the day
1000 persons had made the turns.ile
reyolve. Rags. the newsboy, had
managed to elude the man at the
door. and DIVES, Of the avenue. was
also there, but he had not been
obliged to sneak in behind a female
of ample proportions for fear Of the
Argus eyed janitor.
A man stood in the throng enjoy
ing the great work of art. and his
attention WAS attracted by Il woman
and a child at his elbow. The mother
was fair and forty. the child thin and
slckly. but with large. lustrons eye,
that sparkled with an admiration too
deep for words as she gazel spell
bound upon the dark green blue wa
tiers hurrying owe the falls.
They had not been there more
than a minute when the woman ex-
claimed:
My, isn't it pretty. Amt you
glad, Liza. that we came.'
Yes. mother. very" was the little
girls quiet answer.
Another thirty seconds. AMI the
mother. evidently fidget,y. SAID:
Now. Liza. | guess we'll so.

Nonsense. child. You've seen
enough of that. Why. | do declare.
you're as bad as your father. He's
always foolin round some junk shop
lookin for an old master instead Of
attendin to his business. Leave yout
Well. l guess not"
And these two. with SO little in
common save their humanity, went
their way. but the child turned her
head for one more look as she crossed
the threshold. Boston Herald.

Brooklyn u City Of Cats.

You can call Brooklyn a city of
churches if you like. but if | had the
naming of it | should call it a city Of
cats" This remark WAS made by a
western who was recently
visiting friends in this city. She is
a resident of Kansas City. and during
her stay here WIS more impressed by
the fact above stated than anything
else. Il never saw anything bike il,
She said. Why. there are mo,e cats,
| believe. to the square foot III Brook
lyn than i'll any other five cities III
the United States. They seem to be
everywhere. There tire hor,ies OF
them in the streets on every hand
and most of them are miserable speci
mems too.
Where | live Il cat is regarded as
something of a pet. Here they are
simply regarded as nui.ances. and the
average treatment they get consists,
of kicks and hard words whenever
they get III anybody's way. ! am
not greatly interested in cats. but
since l have come to Brooklyn my
curiosity has been aroused purely
on numerical grounds. AS near as |
can ascertain there IS no special
breed known as the Brooklyn cat.
The ones here are just pain. half
starved. everyday house cats, but
there are lots Of them. "-Brooklyn

More attention is paid to gymnastics
at Yale since tie erection Of the new
gymnasium than ever before. Under
the system Of practical gymnastics now
in use here two plans are offered--the in
dividual work and the class work. The
individual work may be described briefly
as follows: Every student who takes
gymnastic exercise is examined by Dl.
Seayer, the medical examiner Of the uni
yersity, who fills out for him a card or
tanning data rs to lis physical condition.
etc. This card is taken to DR.. W. Il.
Anderson, or his brother. Mr.. H. s. An-
derson, the ~gymnastic instructors. who
indicate thereon exercises suitable Tor
the individual.
The following list Of special apparatus
IS used: Intefcoatal machine. abdominal
mat. quarter circle. nautical wheel,
wrestling machine. neck harness. waist
machine, finger machine. machines for
legs and ankles. rowing machine. ropes,
ladders, rings, parallel bars and medi-
cine balls. Upon receiving the card tie
man Is set to work to correct any phys
zeal defect he may have and TO strength
en- his weak points.
The system Of class work is new at
Yale and is the result OF careful study
of the Swedish and German methods.
All exercises are invariably given ac-
cording to a certain method. Leg exer-
cises are given first to draw the blood
from the brain. after which come mo
tions for the neck. for the carriage OF
the head, for the arms, for round shout
ders, for widening and deepening the
chest and for the muscles Of the waist
and abdomen. Precipitant work is given
for strengthening the action of the
heart and lungs, together with slow leg
work and breathing exercises.-Cor.
