STRENGTH OF MAN.
It Declines Slowly After the Thirty
First Year.

First Year.
The muscles, in common with all
other organs of the body, have their
stages of development and decline, says
the Springfield Union. Our physical
strength increases up to certain age
and then decreases. Tests of the
strength of several thousands of people
have been made by means of dyna-
mometer strength measurer) and the
following are given as the average fig
ures for the white race:
The "lifting power" of a youth of II
years is $50 pounds; in his goth year
this increases to $50 pounds; and in the
Goth and 31st years it reaches its height
$50 pounds. At the end of the 31st
year the strength begins to decline,
very slowly at first.
By the 10th year it has decreased
eight pounds; and this diminution con-
tinues at slightly increasing rate I'M
til the 5oth year is reached, when the
figure is $50 pounds.
After this period the strength fails
more ard more rapidly until the weak
ness of old age is reached. tits not pos
sible to give the statistics of the decline
of strength after the 50th year, as it
varies to a large extent in different indi-
viduals.

Spot cash is greater 'infiuencer"
on election day than "wind-jamming."
The original citizens association have
no connection with the "brick-yard"
committee.
The city hall ticket fixers were smart
enough to leave off the editors of the
leading papers.
A number Of county precincts will
be present at the Republican county
convention on the 26th.
The voter who expects pie wants
something a little more substantial
than campaign pamphlets.
Under the rules of the U. S. Statutes
an ex-convict does not stand much
chance for job with Uncle Sam.
A dollar in cash on election day will
buy more from bargain store than a
cart load of campaign pamphlets.
THE Gossipper" is close reader of
Short Snaps, and his column in the Ex-
press show signs of improvement.
There is no color line drawn in the
call for the Republican county conven-
ton. All Republicans are invited to
attend.
The typewriter who prepared the
brick-yard list was not familiar with
the names of the citizens judging from
the spelling.
General manager Bell & Co., must
pie, than stand around and abuse white
Republicans.
Above all things, let the people who
are interested in the welfare of the
county beware, and not allow Judge
Noonan to be crucified between two
rings.
It's about time the Republican con-
gressional committee stop mud-sling-
ing at white Republicans, and do some
thing for the colored people besides
throwing them taffy boquets.
Since no colored man wants to run
for county Judge, or any of the other
fat offices, what's the matter with CIV
ing him a chair in the legislature. w
E. Easton, or DR.. Starnes, either have
sense enough for the place.
