A Police Justice on immigration.

From my own observations in our courts,
believe that the class of immigrants who
flock to our shores and settle i'm our towns
are u serious menace to our institutions as
well as "A danger To our city.
The statistics of the commissioner of i'm
migration show that an inferior class ar
rived at this port during the past fiscal
year, and that the proportion of Hitter te
immigrants was greater than usual. We
want no more illiteratcs from any nation,
and it is high time that the exclusion law
should be vigorously enforced for our pro-
tection.-"1he City Magistrates Courts, "

This time the drummer was a travel

Philadelphia, and he was, as he put il,
merely knocking around New York to

conversation had got around to the an

but dozen years ago there was hurled
at the great American public through
the newspapers from every dead wall in

in the country, in millions of pamphlets
and pictures, and by every means known
to the skilled advertiser with unlimited
capital, the name and virtues of a med
icine that would cure all the ills that
flesh is heir to, and this valuable truth
was heralded forth with all painful and
realistic details until it actually made
the reader feel as if he needed some of
the cure all as soon as he could get to it..

why We Are Right Handed.

Primitive man, being naturally ana
aggressive animal, defended himself
against wild beasts with his fists and
nails. He fought for his food and his
womankind, which his enemies were al
ways trying to take from him. The first
movement on being attacked is to en-
deavor to protect the most exposed and
vulnerable part of the body. For the
boxer and the fighter the heart is un-
doubtedly the most vulnerable place. A
hard blow in that region may easily kill
a man, and consequently primitive man
used the right hand TO fight with and
the left to protect the heart and TO waroA
off the blows directed that region.
When, therefore, arms OF otfense and
defense were introduced and replaced
teeth and fists, it was the right hand
that welded the sword and lance, while
the left held the shield and buckler be-
fore the region of the heart.
The enormous difference between the
use of the right and the left hand In
our present civilization has this very
simple origin. In the first place, the su--
periority of the right over the left hand
was only brought into evidence during
a combat, but it soon spread and became'
universal. Since the introduction of
lethal weapons the right hand became,
naturally accustomed to the manipula--
ton of the lance, the sword and tho
knife, and the nerves Of the right side
soon became more flexible and more ui--
der the control of the will than tho
muscles of the left side.-New York
Ledger.

FROM THE MAGAZINES
LIVING IN HOTELS.
1t Costs High. but You Get Much For
Your Money.

~ Sosss high. Dut You Get Much For
Your Money.
Perhaps 10 never occurred to you that
the charges at first class hotel are exceed
ingly low. Very possibly, on the other
hand, it has struck you that they were
high. And so they are when viewed abso-
lutely in dollars and cents at the foot of
the bill. But If you stop to calculate it
practically you may reasonably leave off
wondering at the largeness of the price to
marvel at its smallness.
BY this Is meant that viewed as a bust
ness transaction you get very great deal
in return for the money invested Perhaps
you do not want some of the things you
get-and pay for-but that is not the
point.
In the first place, you are given home,
luxuriously and more or less beautifully
and extensively furnished at least, in the
most fashionable or else the most central
portion of the city, or, if at u mountain re-
sort or watering place, on the most advan-
tageous stein other words, where real
estate is highest. You are given every COM
fort and convenience you could have
thought of, and number that you could

the image Of Madonna or patron saint,
which pious usage had hung around all
Christian throats by tiny portrait of him
who loved and rode away? A device so
simple and so practical attained immediate
popularity. There was no lack of skilled
miniaturists, and there was touch of ro-
nance In the idea of having the image of
the beloved always present, which appealed
to n court where gallantry had inherited
the language and ideals of chivalry. Mrs.
