Waterbury Democrat., 1902-06-07

The cat is out of the bag down at Bridgeport and the trouble with May or Mulvihill and his obstructionists is disclosed. It seems the man Taylor, who could no longer affiliate with the mayor, had notified two Park City gentlemen that they were to be ap- pointed on a certain borad. The mayor, however, gave the positions to others than those notified by MT Fay Tor. Hence the latter gentleman came to the conclusion that he didn't cut much of figure with the new ad- ministration after all. Then again, Taylor's son was supposed to be booked for a position, but at the last minute the other fellow got it. It isn't the first time that hunt for place and spells has been the cause of trouble. Mayor Mulvihill, even though he may be rugged honesty" it seems is not going to turn down the members of the democratic party for men who are seeking place because they became disgruntled at the doings of men of their own party.

"The coal strike was a wet blanket upon the stock market the past week" says Henry Clews in his weekly letter
 Fear that the contest might be pro- longed and end in conflict and in de- struction of property acted detrimentai- Iy upon the whole market, to say noth- ing of the feeling that the aggressive attitude of labor leaders seriously threatened the continuance of prosperi- ty. The feeling regarding the coal strike is that the miners have already received many concessions, that the tendency of their unions has been to materially lessen the efficiency of labor, and that the operators are disinclined to refer what they consider unfair de- mands to arbitration, especially when they lack confidence in the proposed medium of arbitration, which they fear will be more influenced by political and sympathetic considerations than by un- biased expert judgment. The situation, therefore, is a most unfortunate one, the outcome of which cannot be pre- dicted at this time, although the op- orators show much confidence in the position which they have taken, viz, tlIat the unions cannot be permitted to run the con1 business. The most i1n- portant event in many weeks was the declaration of peace in South Africa. It's immediate effect seems to have been fully discounted. but eventually

WOMEN LIVE LONGEST.

From 1881 to 1890 in Massachusetts there was 203 deaths of persons past the age of 100. Of these 133 were wo- men and 50 were men.
 Women often complain, of their hard lot and that their work is never done, but all authorities agree that they live longer than men, and statistics uni- formly show it.
 The reason is not far to seek. Wo- men lead more careful and regular lives than men. Their tasks do not bring them into so rough a contact with the world
 Women do not succumb to so many destructive habits as men, nor are they obliged to earn their living in so many unhealthful occupations. But for all men there is the compen- sation that the possession of great riches does not tend to increase the longevity of the possessor. Those who enjoy their days longest are generally found among the poorer classes. The leisure classes cannot escape the in- evitable penalty.-Boston Globe.

WHERE THE TIP FLoURIsHEs

"As Americans we are all down on the tip system from principle said q Michigander who has spent years abroad, 'but we must not forget that it is maintained as a principle in Eu- rope. l would almost venture to say that no government over there could run for a week if tips were abolished. It's the regular thing everywhere, but think they have more nerve in Eng land than elsewhere. For instance. when I arrived at the old town of Chester I had to tip the porter who identified my baggage. A boy called a cab and I tipped him. I paid cabby regular fare and tipped him besides. At the hotel the barmaid. the cham bermaid. the tapster and the boot black had to be tipped. I got shaved and paid the usual rate and tip in addition. When I tipped the waiter I walked out to view the town, and a woman directed me to the old bury ing ground and held out her hand for a tip. I couldn't enter without tip ping the sexton, and to look at the old register meant fee and another tip. There was a woman to show me the graves, and the tip came in again, Thus you will find it all through Eu- rope.-Detroit Free Press.

CAUSE OF TYPHOID FEVER.

The occurrence of a second case of typhoid fever in Wilhelmina's maids or honor would seem to indicate the existence 1T some endemic influences Ill or around the castle. The difficulty Ill discovering them will be apparent enough after 1t has been proved that there IS no contamination of soil or or the water supply. In fact, from all accounts special care has beN taken on the part of those who have sanitary control of the royal household that no such possible sources or infection shall exist
 The results show, however, that even With extraordinary precautions the ty- phoid germ is apt to gain an entrance into the ''best regulated families and generally at a time when it's visitation is least to be expected.
 This can be easily understood when 1t is known that besides the drinking water, which is the main vehicle for the typhoid germ, we can have the latter disseminated in milk. and can take 1t with our oysters, our ice and our vegetables.
 10 guarantee against these multiple and varied sources of infection is. ob- vIously enough, not at all times possi- pie. In fact, medical authorities say that We can never be sure of our eel cry and salads unless it is known that even the garden fertilizers do not con- tain contaminated matter
 Thus to certain extent typhoid fe. yer is ubiquitous and in many cases It must be admitted that it is fmpossi- Die to trace the original source of in. lection. The real calamity, under such circumstances, is in not discover. Ing a distinct cause.-New York Sun

SIGNS OF CHARACTER.
Even Stranger May Read Your Tenn
 perament in Your Face.


 perament in Your Face.
 Reduced to an exact science, chins may be divided into five classes-the pointed. the narrow square, the broad lround and the indented. The point ed and narrow square are essentially the feminine chins, while the broad square is the masculine chin. The broad square chin denotes the propen- slty of earnest devotion, of ardent love, and is usually accompanied by great strength of intellect. Faithful love or constancy is shown by the broad round chin; the owner of such chin is said to be of a sanguine tenn perament. The indented chin denotes the desire to be loved. In a man it is not an admirable sign, unless accom- panied by other balancing qualities, as it gives lightly come and go disposi- tiOn.
 Will or strength of purpose is shown by the long chin. The owner of such a feature is steady, purposeful and al- ways advancing from one accomplish ed work to another and success in life IS assured to him. All intellectual peo- pie have rather prominent cllins The rule for q chin is that in it's modelling 1t must suggest three generations be- 1 hind it, and be rather round than square or pointed.
 1 There never was a person of charac- ter who had not large mouth, and l lips are usually finer and more expres- siye i'll large mouth. It is not neces- sarily the small mouth which is the ideal one The Madonna mouth-the one which shows slight projection of the upper lip over the lower one-re- veals deep purity and effection, great tenderness and self-devotion.
 If the mouth never closes a lack of mental power is indicated; such mouth belongs to person who thirsts for notoriety, applause. and commenda- tion; generally speaking, the person is deficient in passions and emotions The tightly compressed lip is a sign of weakness. Thin lips are associated with unsociability and coldness of dis position; they also denote a great de- gree of self-control Lips which show a straight closure and are delicately creased can belong only to refined nature. Prominence of the lower lip denotes obstinacy but if mole marks the right side of the lip good fortune is signified. Full lips, rosy and regu- lar, finely arched, show lovable dis position; if they also have a cushion ed appearance they belong to domes- tic nature, fond of caresses.
 If teeth are long and not too narrow the owner has large, liberal views, strong passions and heroic virtues. Teeth that are long and narrow be- long to people of weak character. If broad and short, strong mental power are indfcated--if close together the per- son has quick intelligence. Evenly growing teeth show a better disposi- tion developed mind than those that crowd and overlap each other. Teeth that project outward show inquisitive- ness; if they turn inward the person is penurious. Where the upper teeth project greatly over the lower ones it shows non-emotional nature and a lower order of intellect. Vertical teeth represent an even temper. The more the teeth and gums are displayed in conversation the less profound the mind. Teeth unusually pointed ana sharp show deprayed nature.

VITALITY OF THE ADVERTISER

A good story is told of an American army officer in the Philippines, says the Salt Lake City Tribune, who chief l ly has been interested to receive his lhome newspaper in order to know who among his former friends, and espec- 1 ially among the business men i'll his own home are alive; for he judges of l their vitality by the simple fact wheth- CT they advertise in the newspapers or not.
 l It would hardly be fair to take this officers view, common as it is, as to whether the advertiser is alive and the non-advertiser dead. Surely, the advertiser is very much alive; but frankly, we believe it is too much to say that the non-advertiser is dead. Some business propositions cannot De advertised in the newspapers. Some cannot be advertised at all in the or dinary acceptance of that term; al- though we believe it, if definitions be chosen carefully, that no business ever succeeds unless advertised in some way.
 Perhaps this is by the talk of the enterprising and persuasive salesman; perhaps 1t IS by some piece of printed matter. Usually, of course, it is by
  means of the family newspaper, and preferably the leading one of its on city or town
 While it is probably too much to say that the non-a advertiser is dead, it Is certainly true, according to the laws of competition, which are immutable, that the non-advertiser must push his business i'll some way or he is likely to be dead.
 lie must consider all the various means of soliciting business, and in nine cases out of ten ne will conclude that the newspaper, which goes into the home, which claims the attention or the careful housewife as well as of the inquisitive husband, is more likely III the long run to yield him the best returns for his money. But advertise he must.
 The reason is that his competitors VIII advertise if he does not, and by Just so much they will in time get the better of him-Fourth Estate.
