THE QUESTION OF EXERCISE.
One Man at Least Who Thinks Little
Necessary.

One Man at Least Who Thinks Little
Necessary.
DR.. Hoy, Of Chicago, in arguing his
ease against physical exercise Tor
business and professional men, cited
the sad case OF Senator Davis by way
Of illustration. His toe, he said, was
poisoned by his stocking and refused
to heal. Kidney complaint developed,
or rather the kidneys for a long time
had not done their full work, and the
system was SO poisoned that the toe
became gangrened. The kidneys work
easily during youth, up to say 80
years Of age, but after 80 they be
come slightly atrophied. Consequent
ly, as a man advances in age he
shouIu ask his kidneys to perform a
little less work instead Of a little more
A man of business who uses his brain
during business hours and afterwards
puts strain upon his muscles by d
long walk, or any other form of
physical exercise, creates additional
waste to be carried off, and thus the
kidneys are compelled to do double
duty. Every action, whether Of the
brain or Of the muscles, destroys
cells, uses up tissues and creates so
much waste matter to be taken out Of
the system. Golf or tennis exercise
also puts a greater strain upon the
system. Dr. Hoy thinks those who
complain that they do not feel we'll
unless they take some physical OK
ercise are eating too much. If they
would cut down their diet the feeling
would disappear. What they want is
to get air-Oxygen-intO their lungs,
which may be done through an open
window or by driving a horse if one IS
able to indulge in that luxury. This
line of reasoning does not of course
apply with full force to the young
those of IS or under. Their organs
can carry off the additional waste with
out much injury, but even they should
beware of violent exercise. DIR. Hoy
says athletes are usually a prey If
disease, and he has known black
smiths or other mighty men of muscle
to succumb to pneumonia without re-
sistanCe.
He comedies that children need eX-
ercise to build up the muscles, but
that mature men at any age need very
little.

THE CITY OF NEW YORK.

The air and the wave enfold her,
River and sky and sea;
Graded in light they hold her,
Circled in mystery.
With a tender touch they drape her,
At morning and eventide,
In a film of jeweled vapor
Fit for a royal bride
The stars of the night have crowned
her,
In pageant full O'erhGad;
And far, to the verge around her,
Her zone of light is spread.
The subject seas have brought her
All that their tides control;
And the JOY of the breathing water
Quickens her inmOst soul.
Where is her peer in spIendOr?
Whom shall she own as lord?
Richest that earth can render
Down at her feet is poured,
Yet can no gIories win her
To deep and pure repOse,
For the strong, proud heart within her
Aches with q thousand woes.
She who was made to cherish
TOiler and waif and slave,
Weeps that her children perish.
Spoiled of the hope she gave.
MOurns for her freedoms dover,
Lost in the strife for gold,
While the sword of her sovereign
power
Drops from her listless hold.
Yet, as the tides sweep round her,
Her mighty pulses thrill,
And the chains that long have bound
her
Shake with her Weakening will
Slowly the links are broken;
Shall not she bear at last
Only the solemn token
Of pain and thraldom past?
The air and the wave enfoId her,
River and sky and sea;
Loi in a dream behold her,
Crowned as he yet may be.
Still is she freedoms daughter,
Noble in JOY or dole;
And the life of the great glad water
Quickens her inmost soul.

HOW HENS CAN BE MADE TO LAY.
: Chemistry Professors ReciRe
Proves Quite Successful.

SnemiSIFy Professors KecPe
Proves Quite Successful.
Two years ago, says a writer, in
a lecture before the chemistry class
at medical university where | was a
student, the professor stated the rea-
son hens did not lay as many eggs in
winter as in summer was that in
winter they could not get the neces-
sary food to produce the yolk of the
egg, and if farmers would feed their
fowls powdered red albumen in win
ter they could have as many eggs as
in summer.
After the lecture l asked the profes-
sOr in what quantities and how the
aIbumen should be fed. He said to
take pound Of powdered red aibumen
and mix it with one pound of black
or red pepper, ground fine. Then
every morning to mix some ground
feed, half wheat bran and half corn
meal, and to each quart Of this mixed
feed add two teaspoons of the mixed
pepper and albumen, then and enough
hot water to make the feed damp,
but not sticky. Give a quart of this
hot feed to each twelve hens every
morning and a quart of whole grain,
wheat, or corn, or both mixed, to
each twelve fowls every evening, and
in two weeks the hens would begin to
lay.
l wrote to my father and brothers
giving them this recipe, and they and
several neighbors tried it last win
ter with success. The coolest
weather did not stop their hens laying.
Ny father keeps 100 light Brahmas.
Winter before last they did not lay at
all, but on this feed last winter they
averaged seven dozen eggs a day all
winter One thing the Brahmas
used to do to a finish, that was set,
but last spring father could not get
hen to set until he quit this feed.
Ny brother bought $50 young hens
last September and began giving this
feed two weeks ago. He is now get
ting over 200 eggs a day.

There are many anecdotes told of
Lord Kelvin. One, says an English
contemporary, concerns a visit paid
with friend to some well-known
electrical works. They were escorted
over the workshops by the senior
foreman, a man Of much intelligence
and an enthusiastic electrician En-
tircIy unaware Of his visitors identity,
he minutely explained the details Of
the plant and machinery, and lectured
him in his role Of layman quite pro-
fessiOnally. Lord Kelyin's friend was
on the point of interrupting several
times, but an amused signal from the
great master of electricity kept him
silent. When the tour of inspection
was complete Lord Kelvin quietly
turned to the foreman and asked,
What then, is electricity" This
was poser for the man, who, some
what shamefaced, confessed that he
could not say. Well, well" said Lord
Kelvin gently, that Is the only thing
about electricity which YOU and
don't know"

~tgncd specially to do away with the
lighthouses, buoys and the entire

! An electric scoop for grain barges is
an invention intended to economic

unload grain or other bulk material
! from baTges and other vessels. I'm
der ordinary conditions the grain
must be handled several times to
shovel it to the mouth Of the elevator
leg" used for hosting the grain to the
elevator. The new apparatus applies
power to the scoop, thus increasing
its size and the amount of work it is
capable Of performing. An electric
motor is used to run the winding drum,
the cable extending from the drum to
the foot Of the elevator, and thence to
the scoop. On one handle Of the
SCOOP is a push-button, or other form
of switch, which closes the circuit
through the motor and winds up the
cable to carry the grain to the mouth
Of the elevator. The great cOnVen-
ienfe Of this manner of handling the
scoop is apparent, as the power is
applied only when needed, and is with
in easy control Of the man operating
the scoop, without the necessity Of
employing an extra hand to manage
the drum.
