LYING ABOUT WEIGHT.
Some Suggestions That May Be of
 Use to the Over Fat and Clumsy.

It might be difficult to estimate the exact proportion of people who are habitually truthful. The number is probably large, and may be iCcreas- ing, but there is one stumbling block in the way of a perfect record for | many, and this is the question of per sonal avoirdupois.
 Why reople vigorously conscienti- ous upon other matters should lie about their weight is not apparent, nor indeed is there any reason for the topic being if such vital interest to young and old. These, however, are facts, and as such must be treated. Possibly one reason of the intense interest the subject arouses is it's di- rect connection to health The time was when a delicate pattern maiden with a complexion resembling a fresh sheet of writing paper was rated Al on the social and matrimonial mar ket. It was a sign of high caste re- l finement and intellectually. Then weight didn't count, except when it was overdone. But times and ideas have changed. The girl in the bloom i of perfect health now has her rightful place as the most attractive, and
 
 nlediately becomes of consequence | How many pounds are brought back | from the summer outing! What re- markable tales of weekly increase in l avolrdupois. With the keen knowl- edge of human nature which the ex- perienced hotel proprietor has, his scales are carefully adjusted from day to day to the endless qualification of II T a1s season the summer resort scales reg 1 ister accurately, or if anything, too little. There is ample room for i'm provement in the physical condition of the city people who come to lounge and recuperate. Day by day the crafty proprietor makes these scales do his will and the guests increase in
 weight with alacrity. As the weeks go on so does the flesh, and when the season closes that particular water ing place has a record for healthi-

HOW HUMBOLDT SLEPT.
An Interesting Statement Concerning
 His Powers of Recuperation.

How many hours sleep does a man want? In the new number of Cos mopolis, Prof. Max Muller records an interesting statement of Alexander von Humboldt on this subject. 'As I get old," he said, q want more sleep, four hours at least. When I was young," he continued, 1.-two hours of sleep were quite enough for me-"
 Prof. Max Muller ventured to ex- press doubts, apologizing for differ ing from hlm on any physiological fact t'It is quite mistake" he said, though it is very widely spread, that we want seven or eight hours of sleep. When I was your age, I sim- ply lay down on the sofa, turned down my lamp, and after two hours sleep I was as fresh as ever."
 If Humboldt was speaking serious ly and the habits he described were continued for long periods, the ex- perience is certainly remarkable, for he did an immense amount of work

derwear, an extra pair of mems cot ton drawers, an overcoat, pieces of a felt hat, pieces of a woman's skirt and the waist of a woman's dress, small pieces of a rubber coat and a piece of canvass about four feet square. The fabric in the overcoat. the pieces of hat and the skirt were of very fine quality. Near where the articles were found was a narrow hole about two feet long filled to within about ten or twelve inches of the top. They dug down to the bot tom Of the hole, but found nothing to indicate that any crime had been com mitted.-Journal-M Miner

ness which stan

ness which starfS Gy num- Der of ducats the fOUongng season.
 Now is the time when the fair are returning with glowing tales of ex- cessive health The gain in some in- stances has been enormous, for it is the aggregate of the falsehood of the scales, possibly a bona fde increase in weight and the fiction of the sub Jsct herself So the social whirl be- gins again, and the wear and tear of routs and parties to continue through the winter season.
 Put there is another side to all this. Obesity mars what would in many cases be handsome figure and de- tracts from the beauty of many a face. People go on their vacations to get thin. After few days exercising violently at golf, tennis, croquet, row ing or horseback riding they try the scales-the mendacious scales that have been doctored by the wiley ho- tel man. One try is enough They do not care to know their weight again and when scale parties are or ganized by the light weights keep at a respectful distance.
 Since they won't weigh themselves in the presence of others nobody can deny their statements. "Why this exercise in the open air is doing me world of good" is the daily jubilate, S'my muscles are hard as iron and have lost flesh by the basket full.
 It is a pitiful sight to witness a 240 pounder trying really to reduce his weight. He puts on two Or three sweaters and looks like an Espui- mauX. Tennis raquet in hand h. goes out under broiling sun on the courts for his morning exercise It don't take more than half game to put him hopelesslv out Of breath Then he sits down and wipes perspiration from his brow and from his neck just inside the sweater by the pint. He looks haggard and worn. h. | deed, who wouldn't with the dress ot an Arctic explorer on an August day and violent exercise. But enc can not help admiring the nerve Of these heavy weights, for they go on until they drCp. Then comes a lct CT g cold bath, followed by a rubbing dowr by an iron-muscled feld who wialds the towel es he would a b.aci1ins brush.
 At the end of two or three days O. this course of treatment the patienz is in state of collapse. He has un 1 dcubtedly lost flesh, but is in sucf a feeble condition that two or three days of absolute quiet are necessary 1 Then he takes on all the weight ht has so laboriously gotten rid of ana l is in as bad a plight as before. Bu nevertheless at the end of the seaso1 | he reports success.

On the foregoing basis he places the cost per bushel on different yields per acre, including cents per bushel In each instance for thrashing, thus: 15 bu. per acre cost. .34 c.per bu IS bu. per acre cost. .....29 C. per bu 20 bu. per acre cost. ..27 C. per bu. 25 bu. per acre cost. .... .22%c. per bu.
 It is on record that in 1889 E. F. Burchfeld of Harper county raised an average of 42 1-3 bushels on a twenlty-acre field; J. P. Marker of Ellsworth county the same year rais- ed fifty bushels per acre on 130 acres Israel McCcunas of Jackson county had ffty-one bushels average on a min neteen acre field, and Warren Full ton of Pottawatomie county harvest ed ifty-four bushels per acre from eighteen acres. Secretary Coburn has no doubt later thrashing will show that these figures have in many instances been surpassed this year in Sumner, Cowley and other counties, but suggests it would be a mistake for everybody to rush into wheat expecting to acquire fortunes through often realizing the phenome- nal yields mentioned.-Topeka, Kan., Journal

FEW AMERICANS AMONG THEM
EayyHiis Population Made Up Largely
 of Japs and Chinese.


 A census of the Hawaiian islands has been taken recently and the result just ben received by the department at Washington. The figures, says the Man. chester (N. H. Union, are most interest ing in view of the renewed movement for their direct annexation to this gov ernment, which the present adninistra- tion is said to be very desirous of bringing about. The total Americans constitute less than three per cent. of the whole and but little over two per cent. of the male population. They are, however, in full possession of the government, having thus been since Queen Liliuokalani was Geposed. Con- sideling these facts, it is not strange that they should be fearful lest such power should be wTested from them CT at least be considerably more lir1- tied than at present.
