A Respected Lady Gone.

Mrs. VIM. Burke died at her home In
West Reynoldsville Monday forenoon,
Dec. 3lst, 1894, after short Illness.
She had been troubled with rheuma-
tism about two weeks before death.
The rheumatism went to her heart and
broke the silken cords that bound her
to this terrestrial ball. Few people
we're apprised of her illness and the an
nouncement of her death was great
surprise to her host of friends. Mary
Chalran was born in County Tipperary,
ireland, in 1892, and was married to
William Burke In County Durham, Eng
land, in 1857. Mr.. and Mrs. Burke
we're both born in County Tipperary, ire
land. They came to America in 1872
and soon after moved to Reynoldsville
where they have since lived. Mrs.
Burke was one OF those kind and good
old ladies that wil the esteem and love
Of all with whom they become intimate
ly acquainted. She had smile and
pleasant word for every person. She
was faithful and consistent member Of
the Catholic church. The husband and
three children, VIM. Burke, jr., Of
Pittsburg, Mrs. 7. G. McEnteer and
Mrs. Miles Welsh, of this place, survive
her. Funeral services were held In the
Catholic church Wednesday forenoon
and the interment took place in the
Catholic cemetery. A large number of
people followed her remains to the
tomb

League Entertainment.

The entertainment given in the opera
house on Monday evening Of last week
by members Of the Epworth League,
was first-class entertainment for home
talent. All who participated acquitted
themselves creditably. The fact Of the
matter is the entertainment was much
better than many Of the audience ex-
pected for the small price Of admission.
The opera house was well filed and the
people we're pleased with the entertain
ment.

FOR A LONG LIFE.
Every Man Who Attains to Great Age Haa
 His Own Code and Reasons.

Every Man Who Attains to Great Age Has
 His Own Code and Reasons. M. Barthelemy Saint-Hilaire, the famous French scholar and politician, who recently entered on his ninetieth year full of physical and intellectual vigor, has been telling the inevitable interviewer how it is his days have been so long in the land. It is, we are the old precept, 'early to bed and early to rise," with steady work during walk ing hours Every grand old man seems to have secret of his own. Mr Glad stone, we believe, attributes his lon gevity to his habit of taking daily walk in all weathers, and to his giving thirty-two bites to every morsel of food. Oliver Wendell Holmes pinned his faith on equability of temperature. The late Major Knox Holmes swore by the tricycle., which in the end was the cause of his death. Dr. P. H. Van der Weyde, an American octogenarian, not iong ago offered himself ''as an exam ole of the benign influence of the study and practice of music" Some aged per sons give the credit of their long lives to abstinence from tobacco, alcohol, meat or what not; others to their in- diligence in all these things. One old lady of whom we read not long ago as having reached the age of one hum fred and twenty or whereabouts, main tained that single blessedness is the real elixir vit@, and she ascribed the leath of a brother at the tender age Of DO to the fact that he had committed matrimony in early life. NJ. Ferdinand le Lesseps believed in horse riding. James Payn complains that in his boy hood he got little bored with too much horse" The Grand Francais seems to think that one can hardly have 'too much horse" In letter re- gently published NJ. de Lesseps deliv- cred himself on the subject as follows: .l shall always feel deeply grateful to Larine, my riding master, who from my earliest years made me share his keen passion for horses, and l am still convinced that daily horse exercise has in large measure been the means of enabling me to reach my eighty-fourth tYear in perfect health" Carlyle was also great rider almost to the end Of his long life, and he not only rode, but, we believe, groomed his horse himself. On the whole, it must be con cluded that the real secret of longevity is sound constitution prudently hus- banded. The only general rules that can be laid down are those set forth by Adam in "As You Like It."
 Though look old, yet am strong and lusty; For in my youth I never did apply
 Hot and rebellious liquors in my blood.
 Nor did not with unbashful forehead woo
 The means of weakness and debility;
 Therefore my age is lusty winter.
 Frosty but kindly.
 That is the whole secret of long life. Shakespeare knew it as we'll as any one, yet he died at fifty-two,-British Medi. ,al Journal.

The wife of the congressman from a western state was writing letter and he was reading at the other side of the table.
 ''Is it 'eu' or 'ue' in pneumonia?" she asked, as she looked up at him.
 Plagued if I know" he replied, after moments thought.
 ''Get the dictionary and see, won't you, please?' she said, nibbling on her pen.
 He was accommodating and got down the book. After five minutes search he appealed to her.
 ''I cant find it." he said, helplessly.
 "Why, yes, you can," she insisted, tits in every dictionary"

chinamen Arc Not tho wea klinGs That
 They Appear to Be.
 One of the surprises encou ntered by the traveller when he is first cast among NJ ongolians Is their physi- cal development Americans are wont to judge their bodily structure by the specimens in the laundry shops of sam Lee or Wi Ping; and the loose clothing of the Chinaman conceals his brawny arms and legs when he has them. Seeing Thibetans in the Hima- chunks of men with an abnormal muscular development-had not brushed away my idea that the Chinaman was rather a slim, unmuscu. lar Oriental, something like the will lowy Hindu; but when I landed in Singapore and first saw numbers of coolies stripped to their work, l was thunderstruck at their massive propor- tions.
 The Chinese are commonly said to be & diseased race, a people permeated with blood poisons; but one does not see it in the average specimen, and one does see at every street corner men with limbs and torsos like Sandow, men who would be marked down for football players in any American col lege. Not but what disease is always an accompaniment of so crowded a population; not that it's manifestations fail to impr ess you; but the Chinaman, far from being a taper-fngered mortal, is tough, sturdy, fine fellow, with thews and sinews like an athlete, and plenty of ambition and courage-with- in his racial lines Nor have l found any exception to the rule.
 The Mongol from the borders of India, where, going east, you first strike his homely coarseness, to the confines of Japan, where you say good by to his lovely cherry blossoms and his smiling bows, is everywhere, in ph ysique, the same strong, enduring man. The Chinaman is filthy in mind, body and estate; the Japanese is equal ly clean; but in mere physical quality they are very much alike. That the Mongol's nervous structure is less fine than the Aryan's is evidenced by the fact that the average Chinaman will endure unblenched the pain of sur, gical operation which would seriously compromise the reactionary power oi most white men; and this, if anything adds to his value as mere human ami mal.-CoL T.
