Floating Cigarettes.

A prisoner lodged in one cell of a
Chicago police station cannot easily
secure the luxury of a cigarette from
fellow prisoner in another cell.
Among the various schemes to which
he has been known to resort the fol
lowing is novel and amusing;
Along the walls of the station may
be seen a water trough, in which a
constant stream of water flows
through the different cells. The pris
oner eager for a smoke calls out to
some fellow prisoner for cigarette
How will it reach himl The stream
of water flows from the cell of the
latter to that of the former From
an envelope, or such paper as may be
on the person Of him who has the
cigarettes, little paper boat is i'm
provised after the fashion of the small
boy who plays in brooks and ponds.
In this the cigarette is placed. The
signal is given, and the boat with its
precious cargo is sent down the
stream TO the other end of the line,
where it meets with an enthusiastic
reception. Chicago Tribune.

AN ATHLETIC LIFE.
Errors Connected with It and DissdvAn-
tages That Attend 1t.

tages That Attend It.
There are disadvantages connected
with athletic life which must not be
concealed. There are errors abun-
dant that need to be weeded out.
There is an error in the commence
-ment and the ending of the athletic
life that should be remedied. ItshoUld
not be begun at too youthful a period.
It should not be continued to too late
o period. have put it at from IS to
g6 years of age, and that l am con-
vinced is very just limitation for all
except those who are obliged to fol
low it, as in the acrobat way, during
life of toll, devoted to the amuse-
ment of the people.
At 1S the organs of the body have
fairly developed. and yet are not SO
matured as to have lost any degree
of their elasticity, power and facility
for affording graceful and powerful
movements. The nervous system
has become well developed, and. the
senses have reached to good and
healthy action. At 36 the organs
have ceased to increase naturally,
and all parts have entered into ma
turity which stands in the way of a
new activity of a permanent char
acter. By this time the body begins
to feel conclusions and vibrations
which, exalted, pass easily into
shocks affecting the elastic sub
stance, especially the elastic arteries
and all structures that require to be
cushioned by the elastic element.
If elastic tissue grows in the body
in youth and adolescence, there comes
yearly period when it fails to grow,
and, as occurs in piece of india rub
Der, there comes another period when
it begins to lose it's elasticity. Then
any new exercise of an extreme kind
becomes a mechanical injury, which
soon shows itself in the fact that the
man once so successful is forced, no
lens volens, to admit that he is beat
en- by younger competitors. Sir B.
w. Richardson in Longman's Maya

When any cleaning or sweeping IS In
progress, the heavy curtains and por-
there's should be removed and after being
thoroughly brushed and shaken should
be allowed to hang in the air until the
rooms are cleaned and ready for their
return. Heavy hangings will absorb the
odor from cigar smoke or from any food
which may be cooking, and the greatest
care should therefore be taken that they
be kept well aired The doorway cur
tains may be so easily removed and
placed in position again that there
should be no excuse for any unpleasant
