inheritance Of Health.

There is, 1t Is true, as great an in
equality In the Inheritance Of health as
In the heirship Of wealth or brains.
Some are born with n fortune Of vigor
and soundness so large that not a life
time OF eager squandering will leave
them poor. and others enter the world
paupers Of need SO dire that no charity
from medicine can ever raise them to
comfort. but most of us have Just that
mediocre legacy Of vitality which rem
ders us undistiuguishable units In the
mass. II lies In the hands of each to
improve or waste that property, as he
chooses, for there are self made men
physically as well as financially; those
who, because Of ancestral wasteful-
ness, have only a sixpence of health
and turn 1t into fortune, and there
are spendthrifts Of health who come
to as sorrowful case as spendthrifts of
gold. The body Is the realm where a
wise and frugal ruler brings happi-
ness as surely as n foolish one insures
distress, and wisdom here, as else
where, lies In learning and obeying
natural laws.-North American Re-
view.

AN OLD GORMANDlZER.
One Man who Lived That He Might

One Mnn who Lived That He Might
simply Eat nnd Drink.
In little yellowcd English maga-
zine. dated April. 1904 came across
the following amusing scrap:
II the Duke of @ does not ex-
tend his life to still longer period. II
will not be for want of culinary com
forts and those other succulent arts
by which longevity Is best promoted.
His grace's sustenance Is thus daily
administered:
"At 7 In the morning lie regales I'm
a warm milk bath, perfumed with al
mond powder. where he takes his
coffee and n buttered muffin. and aft
erward retires to bed. He rises about
and breakfasts on cafe au lait, with
new laid eggs just parboiled; Mt IL he
Is presented with two warm jellles
and rusques; at he takes n veal cut
let In Maintenon: at tellles and
eggs repeat: at cup Of chocolate
and rusques; at 7:30 he takes hearty
dinner from high seasoned dishes. and
makes suitable libations of clnret and
madeira; at 10. tea. coffee and muf-
fins; at IL sups of roast poulet. with
plentiful solution Of lime punch; at
in the morning he retires to bed In
high spirits and sleeps till 3, when his
man cook. to the moment, waits upon
him in person with a hot and savory
veal outlet, which. with potation of
wine and water, prepares him for
further repose, that continues gener-
ally uninterrupted till the morning
summons to his lacteal bath.
"In this routine of living comforts
are the four and 20 hours invariably
divided; so that II his grace does not
know. with Sir Toby Belch, that our
life is composed Of four elements he
knows at least, with Sir Ague Cheek,
that 1t consists In eating and drink

INTERESTING EXPERIMENT.
Find ont which One of Your Feet
walks the Faster.

Walks the Faster.
You may think this Is a very silly
question to ask, but Is Il? There IL
no catch about II. II IL n simple. de-
monstrable fact which you can prove
to your own satisfaction In very few
minutes.
IL you will take any pavement that
Is clear of other pedestrians, so that
there shall be no Interference, and
walk briskly In the center. you will
find that before you have gone 100
yards you will have veercd very much
10 one side. You must not make any
the center. or you may do It. but II
you will think OF something and en-
deavor to walk naturally II IL 100 to I
you cannot keep direct line.
The explanation of this lies In the
peculiarity OF one foot to walk faster
than the other. Or. to be more cor.
rect. perhaps 1t should be said that
one leg takes longer stride than the
other. and this. combined with the
quicker movement. causes one to walk
more to one side than the other.
II is well known. for Instance, that
II one be lost In the woods the tend.
cncy is to walk In circle and even
tually to return about to the starting
point This demonstrates the fact also
that one foot walks faster than the
other.
You can try nn interesting expert.
ment In this way " you will place
two stakes In the lawn about eight
feet apart and then stand of about
90 feet from them. allow yourself to
be bl.ndfolded and endeavor to walk
between them. You will find II an nj
most impossible task. because one foot
will go n bit faster than the other.
either to the right or left. Now,
which one Of your feet walks faster
than the other?-Kansas City Times.

ELECTRICAL DEPARTMENT,
what the city Electrician Has Been
Doing for the Past Few Months.

City Electrician Levi Cummings found
the months sincs the snow melted away
the busiest the electrical department Of
the city has ever known. The work is
now practically completed and that 1t has
been done well those who have been fa-
miliar with the work of Mr.. Cummings
and his assistants in the past would be
ready to guarantee. The annexation of
Deering rendered a vast amount of work
absolutely necessary. The lire alarm
system in Deering was In very good con-
dition but in Joining it to the Portland
system much change was necessary.
Desriug had no system OF police patrol
but now there are five Of these boxes 10
Gated in this district. They are located at
Morrills, Woodfords, Oakdale, Stroud
water and East Dsering, Besides these
five additional fire alarm hrxes have
been added TO the system and two sig
nal bells connected with the fire alarm
system have been plaosd In Deering. One
Of these is on the school house at Lun ts
corner where cupola was built foi 1t
and the other has just been connected, 1t
being placed on the Deerlng High school
building. In all over 80 miles OF wire
have been stretched and countless cross
arms and poles have bean placed.
1t has been a very busy summer for the
men OF this department and they have
worked early and late to get the system
completed. Mr.. Cummings now has more
wire to look after than any other city
electrician in this part OF the country,
outside OF the largest cities.

Chenoweth Removed

An exchange publishes an alleged telegram from Washington which says:
 The secretary of the treasury to- day made public the fact that H. K. Chenoweth, collector of customs at Nogales, Arizona, had been re- moved. The grounds made public by Secretary Gage for the removal was that the Arizona official had violated the civil service rules. MT. Chenoweth is here, and in company with several prominent Ohio poll ticians, will appeal to President Mckinley to reverse the ruling of the secretary of the treasury. Daniel Ryan, who is a close friend of the president, is also a friend of the Chenoweth family, and is working to retain the Arizonan in his posi- tion. The secretary when ques- tioned as to the outcome of this official disorder, referred to his re- cent public report, and refused to further discuss the matter, but in timated that he had no feeling in the premises, and his act of removal was what he considered for the pub lie good
