HE WILL TEST IT.
Suits Against Physicians for Not Filing
Death Certificates.

In the prosecutions which will result
from series of several complaints filed
in the police court yesterday, test is
to be made of the ordinance requiring
physicians to file certificates of death
of persons who die under their care
with the city health office. There are
numerous physicians of the city who
for some time have been very lax about
filing death certificates as the result of
a conflict of opinion between them
selves and the health officer, Dr.
Shultz. they holding it is the health
Offices place to send to them for the
certificates, while DR.. Shultz constructs
the ordinance as requiring the ply
sicians to bring the certificates to his
office and file them. After persistent
efforts to enforce his view of the law
without success. Dr. Shut2 has decided
to test the matter and yesterday swore
to several complaints against ply
sicians, charging, them with violation
of the ordinance in question. The ply
sicians will be arrested and the cases
tried to determine who is right.

Cheap Living.

Government experts say that a man
can be well fed for 50 cents a day.
This, however, means feeding men in
mass There is a man in Philadelphia
however, who laughs at this lavish ex-
penditure, inasmuch as his bill of fare
for the entire week only costs that
amount. Twenty years ago he made up
his mind that Americans ate too much.
His staple meal is in the middle of the
day, and it always consists of soup
good, rich soup-and a baked potato.
Some days instead of the baked potato
he has what southerners call cowpeas,
which are extremely cheap and whole
some. They cost cents a pound and
swell very much in cooking. He cooks
them with bit of salt pork. Rice is
also one of his staple foods and occa-
sionally little milk. He buys two
loaves of stale bread a week, which cost
21a cents loaf These are always
toasted.
Cabbage Is another article of diet,
cheap and of great value. He has an
arrangement with his grocer by which
he buys the scraps of cheese left over
from the large cuttings at 2 cents for a
days scraps. He is in sound health and
has not had indigestion for 20 years.

Hair For Violin Bows.

The horse hair used in making violin
and other similar bows is imported
from Germany. A considerable part
of the hair thus imported, however,
coming originally from Russia. Horse
hair for these purposes is white and
black. The black is the heavier and
stronger, and this is used in making
bows for bass viols, because it bites
the big strings better. In preparing the
hair for use in bowmaking the white
hair, used for violin bows, is bleached
to bring it to it's final wilderness.
The standard violin bow is % inches
in length; longer bows are made to
order. Shorter bows are used by
young persons; but the bow commonly
seen in the hands Of a violin player
is % inches long. Horse hair for violin
bows is imported in various lengths,
but mostly in lengths of SO inches.
Hair sufficient for one bow is put to-
gether in what is called a hank. There
are grades and qualities of the horse
hair, but the best is not very costly.
A hank of the best white hair can be
bought for 20 cents; it might cost 80
cents more to have it put into the bow.
To rehair q bass viol bow costs more,
the bulk or hair required being greater.

His Head Was Turned.

a quaint story of paternal care on
the part Of the clergy comes from
Kreuzeber, a village in southwest Sax
ony.
In the middle of his sermon one Sun
day the parish priest suddenly stopped,
and, changing his voice to a more col
loQuial tone, said: Herr Meinhardy,
attend to the sermon. From this time
forward l shall publicly name every
one who looks at the girls during the
service"
The unfortunate Herr NIeinhardy in
dignantly repudiated this public re-
proach, explaining that it was a boil
on the back Of his neck that kept his
head fixed at an angle which had led
to the misunderstanding. - London

The English of 1853.

manufacturers took their places some

ticians of older standing, filling the

as if nothing counted any more in
English life save its middle class-a
busy, hard prosperous, pugnacious
middle class, slowly emerging from it's
early obscurity. In this century it had
arrived at power definitely, ostenta-
tiously, carrying a proud look and a
high stomach, intent on its own affairs,

Linked Eyebrows.

1t is popularity believed that if ones
eyebrows meet it indicates deceit.
Charles Kingsley indorses this belief,
but Tennyson has other ideas and poet
ically speaks Of married brows
In Turkey meeting eyebrows are
greatly admired, and the women use
artificial means to bring the brows to
this condition, and if art cannot induce
thin eyebrows to grow they make up
by drawing black line with paste.
1t would appear that the Greeks adj
mired brows which almost met, and
the fashionable inhabitants of Rome
not only approved CT them, but resorted
to pigments to make up the lack which
sometimes existed.
Some proverbs state that the person
whose eyebrows meet will always have
good luck, while others state exactly
the reverse. The Chinese say that
''people whose eyebrows meet can never
hope to attain to the dignity Of a min
lister of state, and in Greece of today
the man whose brows meet is said to be
a vampire, while in Denmark and Ger
many it is said he is werewolf.

When I was in Chicago in 1877 it
was the metropolis of the west with
out qualification. Now it is merely
the frontier city of the middle west.
From the peint of view Of Omaha and
Denver it seems to fill the eastern
horizon and shut out the further view.
Many stories are told to show how
absolutely and instinctively your true
westerner ignores the eastern states
and cities. Here is one of the most
characteristic: A little girl came into
the smoking car of train somewhere
in Kansas or Nebraska and stood be-
side her father, who was in converse
ton with another man. The father
put his arm around her and said to
his companion: 'She's been great
traveller, this little girl of mine. She's
only 10 years old and she's been all
over the United States
"You don't say!'' replied the other.
Cali over the United Statesv'
Eyes, sir, all over the United States"
said the proud father, and then added,
as though the detail were scarcely
worth mentioning, except east Of Chi
cago.'

limit of my wanderings, SO shall re-

Among all the evidences of improve
ments and progress which the end OF
the century brings with it, none is
more encouraging than the constant
effort which is being made to alleviate
by mechanical and other devices the
burdens of those who through their
infirmities are deprived of many of
the ordinary pleasures of life.
Conspicuous amongithese evidences
of philanthropic progress is the estab-
lishment in the now Congressional
Library of Congress of a reading
room for the blind. In an editorial in
the current number of Harper's Bazar
the following description is given of
the use and purposes Of the room:
''Books printed especially for blind
readers, with raised type and charac-
tiers, are SO expensive as to place them
beyond the reach of slender purses.
In the Washington Library near
ly every edition of the works of stan
dard authors printed in raised
characters has duplicate, which is
demanded by copyright, and the list is
sufficiently large to provide the best
reading for the unfortunate person,
who are by this means endowed with
a wealth of learning and entertain
ment in in prose, poetry, and musical
composition
Since the Washington Library, the
plan has been adopted in various other
cities through the country.
