THE DANGERS OF DANCING.

A medical authority says that mod
in close and crowded par
lors and ball rooms is very undesirable
from hygienic point of view. Phys
icians are unanimous in condemning
dancing as it is understood tpresent;
but it might be made hygienic exer-
else if it were executed in the open
air and in the daytime, and if the
amount of exercise was in proportion
to the strength Of the dancers.
After ball it is quite common to
find that many delicate young women
show signs of disturbed heart action,
Or of laryngitis, cold, bronchitis and
sometimes pneumonia and pleurisy. In
all cases of consumption dancing
should be rigidly forbidden, as it may
cause the disease to assume rapid
form of fatal development. In cardiac
troubles, also, indulgence in dancing
is likely to prove dangerous. The me-
dical correspondent says:
cit is scarcely necessary to refer to
the dust of all kinds, to the innumer-
able microb es that the dancers send
flying into the air, nor need we speak
of the untimely strain imposed upon
the organism which, at time when
it ought to be at rest, is, on the con-
trary, overexcited. What greater mis-
take than the midnight supper, at
which the most unwholesome things
are eaten and drank? The guests bolt
in very short time food that is gen
orally heavy and washed down with
strong wine, and this scarcely over
before the dancing is resumed against
the most elementary rules of common
sense and hygiene. Nor is this all; it is
not the body alone that is concerned,
as the mind has it's share in this ia
tigue by the vivid emotions produced
by the conversation, music and
flowers "-NeaU York Herald.

Women grow more frivolous every
day. Young ladies scorn homework
and learn to embroider, to play the
piano and to fiirt, while their moth
ers are engaged in all the drudgery
of the household. They eschew all
useful reading and prefer French
novels to English classics. In select
ing husbands they choose dandies
with social graces rather than men
with solid attachments. They are
full of strange, whimsical notions pc
culiar to the age. Reader, this is
synopsis of the opinions of an En-
glish magazine writer of 1889 on the
women of his time. They sound very
much as if they were written by GER
tain pessimists of to-day. There is
no new thing under the sun.-Boston

DIR. MITCHELL ON DRINK.

DR.. S. Weir Mitchell, in answer to
the question: (which one of the alco-
holic liquors is the least injurious for
man to drink" has written a letter,
saying that "setting aside considera-
tions of pecularities, of personal tenn
permanent and individual idiosyncra-
sizes, and attempting to lay down a
rule for the government of majority
of cases." he would say, Gin a vague,
general way" that he adhered to the
old traditional belief that "whisky is,
after all, the least injurious, safest
and best" But constitutions and tenn
peraments are affected in many diff
ferent ways. For instance, he knows a
man who thinks that whisky poisons
him, yet he can take champagne with
impunity, while there are others to
whom champagne is poison, who can
drink whisky without feeling any the
worse for it. Opium puts some people
to sleep, but occasionally it makes a
patient obstinately wakeful, excited
and distressed.
When DR.. Mitchell some years ago,
remarked to the late Judge G. that
the large number of cold Western
lawyers who abided by Monongahela
rye seemed to prove it's wholesome
ness" the Judge grimly replied: "Ah,
you forget that you see only the sur
vivors. Philadelphia Record.

She Pounded q CARTRIDGE.

A woman of Carrolton, KY, thought
that she would be able to stop leak in
the bottom Of an iron pot by driving a
piece Of lead into it. So she got one of
her husbands pistol cartridges out Of a
drawer and began the driving process
with q hammer. Now, the good lady
didn't understand the philosophy Of a
cartridge and never dreamed that it
would explode from the conclusion Of a
hammer, seeing no powder about the
thing. But there is no knowledge as
that which comes from experience, al
though the price paid in that way is
sometimes very high. This cartridge
exploded, and the flesh of the thumb
and finger with which she held it was
considerably torn. And that old pot
still leaks as it did before. louisville
