WOMAN'S INFLUENCE.

Her Love IL More Reasonable and
Therefore, Less Than 1t Used to Be.
A Swedish writer, Frau Hanson, IN
her "Das Buch der Frauen," thus de-
scribes the relation between modern
men and women: 1T is peculiar sign
Of the times that in spite of the many
restrictions of former days men and
women have never stood wider apart
than at present and have never under
stood one another more badly than
now. The honest, unselfish sympathy,
the true, I should like to say organical,
union. which is still to be observed
in the married life Of old people.
seems to have vanished. Each goes his
or her own way. There may be nerv-
GUS search for each other and short
finding, but 1t is soon followed by q
speedy losing. IL it the men who are
to blame! The men Of former days
were doubtless very different. but In
their relations to women they were
scarcely more social than at present
Or is 1t the women who are at fault!
For some time past have watched life
In its many phases and have come to
the conclusion that it Is tho woman
who either develops the mans charac-
ter or ruins It. His mother and tho wo-
man to whom he unites himself leave
an everlasting mark upon the impress
sional side Of his nature. In most
cases the final question Is not. What
is the man like? but. What kind OF
a woman is she? And think that the
answer is as follows: A woman's &C
tons are more reasonable than they
used to be. and her love is also more
reasonable. The consequence Is les@
sening of tho passion that is hers to
give, which again results in a corre-
spending GOODNESS on tho part OF the
man."

THE sEcnsr OF LONGEVITY.

cir james savysrs Set OF RuIss e
Prslons Life.
From the London News: What Is
the secret Of longevity? Sir James
Sawyer has been confding 1t to Birm-
ingham audience. Like SO many other
secrets, It consists in paying atten.
ton to number Of small details"
Here is q schedule of them. collected
from the reports of Sir James sawyer,s
lecture: /. Eight hours sleep. q
Sleep on your right side. 8. Keep your
bedroom window open all night. T.
Have mat to your bedroom door. b.
Do not have your bedstead against the
wall. s. No cold tub in the morning.
but a bath at the temperature OF the
body. Z. Exercise before breakfast. 8.
Eat little meat and see that 1t Is well
cooked. 8. (For adults)-Drink no
milk. 10. Eat plenty of fat. to feed
the cells which destroy disease germs.
II. Avoid intoxicants, which destroy
those cells. IL. Daily exercise In the
open air. 10. Allow no pet animals IN
your living rooms. They are apt to
carry about disease germs. IA. Live
in the country If you can. Is. watch
the three Ds-drinking water, damp
and drains. 16. Have change OF occu-
patton. II. Take frequent and short
holidays. 10. Limit your ambition,
and, 10, keep your temper. Keep all
these commandments, and Sir James
Sawyer sees no reason why you should
not live to be 100. An interesting
point in vital statistics was inclden-
tally brought out by Sir James saw
yer, the death rate during the last 2oo
years has been enormously decreased,
but the decrease has all been between
tie ages of birth and IS. Those VINO
passed that age had not so good
chance of living as the people who
lived 200 years ago. The meaning was
that now the weaklings among the
young were less easily killed on than
they were 200 years ago. With re-
gard to those of IS, those who lived in
the olden days had the advantage that
here were no telephones, telegrams'
trains, daily share lists. or daily news
papers.

Adulterstion Of Dress silks.

An English chemist has recently
analysed a sample of a silk dress that
was submitted to him by lady. He
found that it contained only fraction
over % per cent Of silk. and as much
tin was found in it as that present in
Door tie ores from Cornwall. The tin
occurs in the so-called weighing Of
the silk. The chemist states that he
at once realized the fact that the silk
dresses worn by the ladies in Regent
street and Bond street, London, taken
together, would represent Cornish
tin-mine Of very fair quality. He was
informed by an expert that the silk
he had examined would not stand more
than three months steady wear.
