roR ENNoRcEMENr OF LAWS.

Whether one holds the first day OF
the week. OF the second day Of
the week, to be sacred; or whether one
regards no day above another, every
rood citizen is under the duty OF OBJ
serving the laws enacted TO govern the
community. Not only is one Obliged
BY his duty to the public TO personally
obey the law; but he is equally re-
ouired by duty to assist those charged
with enforcement of the laws to do so
effectively. This is true, of course, not
only OF Sabbath laws, but OF all laws.
That community in which officials en-
10y the greatest encouragement and the
most help in maintaining and enforc-
ing the laws is the best governed, the
most peaceable and quiet. For these
seasons 1t Is well to organize assoeia-
tiuns such as the Citizens League
Which declares its objects to be: Ito
lid and encourage by every legitimate
means our city officials and Law and
Order Society to prevent the conduct
OF business on the sabbath
When community gets into the
habit of enforcing one statute or ordi-
nunce with zeal 1t is preparing itself
20 equally enforce all laws. This habit
must tend to the enactment OF just
iaws only and the repeal Of ill-consid-
cred statutes. Just impartial and nee
essary laws come by evolution and
nothing else is so effective to prevent
enactment of oppressive laws as strict
enforcement OF all laws.

Some OF the men in business who do
not think it pays to advertise should
consult the managers Of the passenger
departments of the great railroads. It
would naturally be assumed that
trunk line road. like the New York
Central. would be one Of the institu-
tions that would not think it worth
while to advertise to any great extent
But under the wise management of its
general passenger agent, George II.
Daniels, enormous sums are expended
for that purpose. and the road has
found that it pays we'll. Asked as to
what medium was used most exten-
sively, Mr.. Daniels replied: The daily
newspapers. Their frequency OF issue

There is a law in Maryland forbid
ding all persons from catching and
taking" Juvenile terrapins. There is
not, however, any statute prohibiting
anyone from harboring truant terra
pins OF tender age. The distinction
was brought out at Centreville-by the
aid OF learned counsel Captain James
K. Kerwin, Democratic candidate for
state senator, was hailed before mag
istrate ON charge OF violating the stat
ute. The constable produced as ex-
hibits in the case a herd Of infantile
terrapins, corraled in a barrel, 167 in
number. all unbranded mavericks.
When the learned counsel urged the
learned court to observe that the law
that forbids taking and catching inn
mature terrapins does not, even by nee
essary implication, forbid any tender
hearted and humane person from open
ing his hospitable doors in welcome to
a herd OF wandering and homeless lit
tie terrapins. and eulogized the captain
Tor his charity to the dumb defenseless
creatures, the weeping audience ap-
plauded as the sobbing magistrate
blessed and bade the captain depart un-
nned and take with him his little hero
OF tender terrapins to be fed, fatteneC
and grown to eatable proportions.

A serious and dangerous disease
prevails in this country, dangerous
because so deceptive. Ii comes on SO
slowly yet surely that it is often firm
" seated before we are aware OF it.
The name of this disease which
may be divided into three distinct
stages is, first, kidney trouble indicat-
ed by pain in the back, rheumatism,
lumbago, frequent desire To urinate
often with burning sensation, the
flow of urine being copious or scant
with strong odor.
Ii allowed to advance this reaches
the second stage, or bladder trouble
with heavy pain in the abdomen low
down between the navel and the water
passages, increasing desire to urinate
with scalding sensation in passing,
small quantities being passed with
difficulty, sometimes necessary to
draw it with instruments. II uric
acid or gravel has formed it will
prove dangerous if neglected.
The third stage is Bright's disease.
There is comfort in knowing that
DR.. Kilmer, the great kidney and
bladder specialist, has discovered a
remedy famous for its marvellous
cures of the most distressing cases
and known as Dr. Kilmer' swamp
Root.
1t is sold by all druggists.

Transference of Neat.

A correspondent of Nature, who is
associated with the observatory nj
Toulouse. calls attention to a very sin
gular phenomenon, the scientific ex-
PLANTATION of which he seeks. Take 4
bar of iron in the hand by one end,
and plunge the other end in the fire,
heating it strongly, but not so much
that the hand can not retain its hold.
Then plunge the heated end in a pail
of cold water. Immediately the end
held by the hand becomes SO hot that
it is impossible to retain il in the i'm
gers. This phenomenon, said by the
correspondent to be familiar to work
men in iron. is ascrbed by them TO
some repellant action which they sup
pose the sudden cold to exert upon the
heat contained in the iron, which is
thus driven to the opposite extremity.
