Remarry.
improbable though 10 may sound, there
are prospects Of a reconciliation between
the Grand Duke OF Hesse and his wife.
True, they have been divorced In due
form. and in a somewhat sensational
manner. But there have been no charges
either from the one side or the other Of
anything but incompatibhity Of temper
and domestic squabbles. In fact there is
nothing 70 stand in the way Of a recon
ciliation between the young people, II
they can only decide TO get along with
one another without further differences
All the relatives Of the grand duke and
the Crand duchess are working to bring
about this understanding. and inasmuch
as the grand duke, in spite OF all that has
been said to the contrary, has found no
one else whom he cares TO wed. and the
high-spirited grand duchess is not only
fancy free but somewhat tired Of the
dreary life which she IS compelled 10 lead
in the little city Of Coburg on relatively
small allowance. deprived Of many Of her
former honors and prerogatiyes and shut
of from all festivities and state func-
tions IN which her sister. the crown prin-
cess shines so consplCuously. IT is eX-
ceediugly probable that they viii re-
marry and that the Grand duchess VIII
once more take mp the position In which
she is SO particularly well qualified TO
gclutillate.

Trouble for Kean.

The Hon. John Kean, United States
Senator from New Jersey. has lost in the
first Of the series Of contests which are 70
determine whether he or some other am
bilious Jerseyite is 20 represent that
State in the Senate after March 8, 1908.
For weeks lengthening out into mouths
the Senator has been grooming one Cross
for the presidency Of the State senate as
preliminary 70 the greater struggle which
IS 10 ensue for control or the Legislature.
The Senator has proven himself in this
instance poor trainer. for his candidate
is nov scratched at the post, having
made such a poor showing that ne has
been withdrawn. The victory is aecred-
tied to the Hon. Edward c. Stokes. who
holds an ofhce under the State admins
tration and IS said 20 be making great
strides toward the front in Jersey poll
tics, and bids fair 10 attain the position
of leadership which has been vacant since
the death OF Senator Sewen.
Stokes is looking longingly toward the
dome OF the Capitol and covets the seat
which the Hon. John Kean occupies in
the Senate wing. But there are Others
and they promise to make the Senator as
busy as a boy fighting bees il he is TO re-
tain his commission in the Senate. His
recent failure has strengthened the posi-
tion Of his opponents. and inspired them

Another thing that is helping toward
the reconciliation is the devotion OF both
Of them 70 their little girl, Princess
Elisabeth. who now spends half her time
with her father and the remainder Of her
time with her mother, and who is equally
devoted 10 both.
The fact Of the matter IS that both the
grand duke and the grand duchess were
far TOO young when they married
so young and so spoiled that they made
no allowances for the differences Of their
respective characters They have each
Of them learned a salutary lesson, and II
they marry again there is no reason why
they should not from now on be happier

A Powerful Combination.


In the last Congress campaign Sen
ator McComas lost one OF his districts
in Baltimore, and only saved the Hon.
Frank Waohter by a narrow margin. In
the country districts Mudd. Pearre. and
Jackson won by increased majorities.
Now it is reported that they are about
to form a combination. with whatever
aid Senator McCOmas' bitter enemy. Sen
atOr Wellington, is able to bring, to-
gethor with a number OF other anti-Mc-
Comcs men. to overthrow the Senator.
The plan would make Mudd the leader
in N ryland politics and the distributor
OF tie bountiful blessings OF Federal
patronage. But TO carry the scheme 10
success Il is necessary to have a hnan-
ciai lubricant TO start the new mechan-
ism. This IS &c be provided by the Hon
William Fl. Jackson. who believes that
a man o. his wealth should hold a seat
in the Senate Instead OF contenting him
self with membership in the House.
Hence he VIII be the Mudd candidate for
the senatorhip to succeed McComas.
Present Indications are that the SEN
ator IS on the defensive, and that the
hot fight which Will be made against
him from now on VIII either force him
to surrender or sue for terms Of peace.

liticai pie. While the struggle Is going

PHYSICAL DEGENERACY.
Why Men and Women are Smaller Now
Than They Were Formerly.

Il have been working out a theory
which accounts for the fact that men anG
women are smaller now than they used
to be-" said an observant citizen. ''and
while my reasoning may not be good in
all respects. ii is interesting enough in a
way, and brings up some rather impOr
tant problems. 1t is a conceded fact
that men and women are smaller now
than they used to he. The fact is pain
fully apparent. The tailors can testify
to il. They have noticed the changes
which have taken place in human meas
urements. That humanity has come
upon an era Of dwarfing is amply shown
by the yardstick and the tape in the
tailor shop. or course, methods of liy-
ing have much to do with these dwarf
ing tendencies. Life is faster game
now than it was in We olden times There
is more rushing, more crowding and jam
ming. more hustle in all respects
But. coming to the point | had in
mind, | believe we can safely say that
the physical decline Of men and women
Of this day is due to o great extent to
adulteration of food. Men and women
Of yesterday did not known what it was
to have their stomachs crowded with the
cheap and injurious substances which
we find in foOdstalls these days. They
fed on pdrer food They were closer
to the great. big warm heart Of nature.
Children were Dursed differently. The
baby did not know so much about the
bottle He got the food nature intended
he should get. The result was that he
got q good start in life, and when he had
reached maturity he was o lusty. well
rounded fellow. Now it is different.
Fables begin to take on adultcrated food
almost as soon as they arrive They
keep il up. They drift away from the
natural Artifcialities press upon them
at every point The unnaturalness of
their way Of living has a bad effect on
the system. We see it in what is called
'nhysical degeneracy' have been
thinking over this matter for some time
and ! think my theory is well grounded.
The bottle habit is a bad thing. Tho
principle is wrong. We want 10 ge+

ELECTRIC POWER IN THE ALPS.
Enough in the Waterfalls to Run All
Railroads in Switzerland.

a Swiss engineer. who has been max
ing,a careful investigation OF the subject,
with view more to the future than the
present. says that enough electric power
could he developed from the waterfalls
Of the Alps to run all the railways of
Switzerland. He estimates that about
$4,000 horse power could be produced
from twenty-one of the waterfalls that
he has examined, whereas only 10000
horse power would be needed for the
railways. At present there would be
little or no reduction of cost, hut as
Switzerland has to import all the coal
she uses the chances are that electricity
will, after n while. take the place of
steam as motive power.
