HEREDITl.

The Rev. Mr. Kincaid's reference, in
his sermon on Sunday last, TO the res
! possibilities OF heredity, recalls cele.
brated cartoon that appeared some
years ago in Punch.
In the centre of the picture stands a
I stately thoroughbred short horn bull
In front OF him stands his master. a
young nObleman, weak and decrepit.
He looks with admiration at the ami
nal and says: What a splendid crea-
ture you are," And the bull replies:
And so would you he, my Lord, If
your papa and mamma had been Sc
lected as carefully as mine were"
what should be one of the foremost
problems of civilization today, Is made
one Of the last in order and Importance.
The Responsibility OF Heredity even
Il e liberal thinkers and writer's hardly
touch upon.
When the essayist asks: How shall
a man escape from his ancestors. or
draw off from his veins the black drop
which he drew from his fathers or
mother $ lIfe?" the answer has been,
and now Is from the majority: "All
things are possible with God" While
the owner of stock farm will not
trust Providence to improve his stock,
but carefully selects the papas and
mammas Of his fine herd he will leave |
the mental and moral and physical |
of his own progeny to |
be shaped in ignorance. and then la |
nent because Providence does not in
expose and save him from the conse-
luences of his own act.
Life gives little pleasure unless there
5 physical health. Those who are
'rought into the world with weak con-
titutions, and a narrow basis of vital
ty, have the right to charge their an
estors with the neglect of these respon-
Utilities of heredity. Some years ago
brilliant young student who showed
ONE eccentricity, was found dead in
is bed, and an empty vial of laudanum
TODD on the mantel piece, and upon
paper over which was written these
lords: This is not my deed, but rhe
eed of my ancestors"
So Ignorant is the civilized world, to-
ay, OF the nature and responsibilities
t heredity, that in only one State of
he Union is there a law which per-
hts divorce on the ground of perma-
ent insanity. Insane progeny is really
ncouraged by the State.

The portrait OF President Mckinley
is an excellent one. The friends CS this
statesman, who is now making Ameri-

REMAINS OF SOLDIERS.
All the Bodies Will BE Shippe 4
Back to the States.

A dispatch from Washington says
that the quartermaster's department
has made the following statement:
Under a recent act Of Congress the
quartermaster-general is now making
preparation for the removal Of the
bodies OF our officers and soldiers in
tered at and in the vicinity of Santi-
ago de Cuba, Ponce and other points
In Porto Rico, Manila and Honolulu
Duly authorized relatives or represen-
tatives Of the families Of the diseased
soldiers who wish the remains sent to
their homes are requested to at once
notify the quartermaster-gener Of
such desire, stating In full the name OF
the soldier, the company and regiment
to which he belonged, and the address
OF the town, county and state to which
the remains are to be forwarded, and
the names Of the parties in whose care
the remains are to be shipped, so that
they can be advised OF the date OF
shipment when made"
The act of Congress referred to ap-
propriates 100000 for this purpose.

RED LIGHT.

Efstein's Investigations show, it is
claimed, that seasickness Is due to the
lack OF blood in the brain. A red color,
he claims, will send the blood back to
the brain. The use Of bright red spec
tacles, accompanied with doses of cal
omel will, he claims, cure seasickness.
The departure of our ocean and inter
island steamers make charming views
of our social life. But If every passen-
ger, decked with leis, looks over the
taffrail through red glassed spectacles.
upon his friends, 1t will modify the
picturesque scene, and discourage the
striking attitude Of those who are fond
of dramatic partings.

In the death of Congressman Ding
ley, the House of Representatives at
Washington loses man of strength
and discernment and effectiveness. His
state must mourn that she has been
deprived OF a capable publicist OF in
