BETTER THAN PILLS.

William H. Evarts used to boast
that he had never even looked into
gymnasium, which was his way of
saying that in his opinion gymnastics
were all nonsense. People say to
me, Mr.. Evarts, you're hale and
hearty when you ought to be think
ing of your grave, and they wonder
how do it."
Of course the secret of the haleness
and the heartiness was temperance
moderation, says the New York
Meas. No man who goes to bed on
a supper of mince pie and Welsh rab-
bit and wakes up for breakfast of
sausage and buckwheat cakes and
then spends most of the day twisting
from one side of desk to the other
can long avoid the prescription of hot
water thrice a day before meals.
Temperance" is one of the words
that are Yidiculed until they impress
themselves upon giddy humanity with
the effect of branding iron.
Some happy mortals like Mr.. Evarts
have no use for a gymnasium, for
they find gymnastic apparatus every
where. The street is their half mile
track; the two flights of steps-or
maybe ten fights-are the lung de-
velopers the free and vigorous swing
of the arms and the throwing out of
the chest are as good as parallel bars.
There are men somewhat intemper-
ate in their temperance, displaying
too much of the good thing. They
crack your knuckles when they take
you by the hand they pound you on
the back, as if a fshbone were stuck
in your throat, and say, "Brace up,
old man; you'll be round shouldered
if you don't take care"
But there is this to be said in favor
of the gymnasium-it has cured many
case of dyspepsia and to that ex-
tent has made the world sweeter.

WOMAN ON THE STREET CAR.

Women in public places have typi-
cally different ways of getting their
wants answered. For instance in the
comparatively simple feat of getting
a car to stop, a half dozen women
passengers will adopt as many differ
ent ways of attracting the conductors
notice.
The free-and-e easy, mannish type of
woman whistles if necessary to make
the conductor look round and other
wise shows that she is serviceable and
independent in disposition and not
averse to being looked at.
The demure unobstrusive woman
of patiently considerate turn will
ride two blocks past her corner may
be before she musters courage to let
the conductor know that she wants to
get off. She waits in the hope that
he will look in her direction, and
only when things get desperate does
she jump up and motion to him or
otherwise call attention to herself.
The quietly confident, self-possess-
ed woman, on the other hand, when
the conductor is particularly occupied
or non-attentive simply rings the bell
and steps off. She believes her own
convenience of more consequence than
the stares of the strangers.
The girl or woman of the depen-
dent, trustful temperament appeals to
the man sitting nearest to her to stop
the car, or she will motion to some
passenger near whom the conductor
is standing to make known her need.
The nervous restless woman begins
to fdget and look anxious long be-
fore the time comes for her to get off {,
if the conductor appears engrossed
with business or conversation. And
when her destination draws near she
will half rise from her seat and -four
ish bag or parasol or handkerchief in
many attempts to catch his eye before
that object is attained. Sometimes
it seems almost as if the conductor
sees this sort of woman all the while
but purposely abstains from looking
in her direction just to plague her.

THE COUNTRY STORE.

Without doubt, the old-time coun-
tx".stGs~Hot- ssctuany passing, II mas
been so altered that it does not know
itself. Half century ago it was a
Rialto or Forum where the country
masses met by day or night to discuss
the affairs of the State, the gossip of
the neighborhood or the condition of
religious affairs. Then the country
store kept everything and everybody
traded there. 1t gathered up all the
produce of the district and exchanged
goods for the same. 1t was familiar
with pass books, long credits and a
general settling day. Now this has
passed, and the rural store is a cash
commission house and its stock in
trade the common necessities, such as
chewing tobacco, salt, curry combs,
brooms and baking soda. 1t now
seems the last stroke of i'll luck has
struck the rural Wanamaker. 1t is
stated that, according to protests
and complaints received at the Office
OL luC OoLLldSLCl 0CuCI dl ldLCly3 luC
posting of lists of rural delivery routes
and of addresses of patrons along the
lines has been working detrimentally
to the business of country stores. 1t
appears that these lists are being
copied by agents of firms that do
large business on mail orders, and the
information thus gathered is used in
sending out descriptive catalogues
and circulars. So it seems that the
rural mail box at the end of the lane,
while general good, still hurts some
one. This is always the case. A
new machine may throw some one
out of work for the time being, but in
the long run everybody is better off.
The free delivery system has destroy
ed the social gatherings at the rural
post office and curtailed the business
of the country store, but for all that
the greatest good to the greatest num-
bers must revail.-Lancastey En-

A YEAR OF LARGE GIVING.

Three hundred and sixty-three per-
sons in the United States in the year
1902 gave more than $o4, ooo, 900 to
charitable, philanthropic and educa-
tional institutions. This includes no
gift of less than S. 900, and does not
include the $40, 900, 900 promised to
the general educational board by John
D. Rockefeller, nor the So, 900, 900
for the consolidation of Rush Medical
College with the University of Chica-
go, nor the So, 800, 900 promised by
Henry c.. Frick for endowment of
university at Pittsburg, nor the $3,-
900, 900 endowment for a surgical in
stitute at Chicago promised by J.
Ogden Armour, nor the $I8, 36o, 900
contributed for foreign missions, nor
the $40, 900, 900 thank-o offering fund
of the Methodist Episcopal Church.
Counting these, the gifts and bequests
Tor 1902 amount to $I4o, 3o9, 900.
The bequests and gifts for 1901 ag-
gregated $Io7, 900, 900, but included
several very large contributions to
leading educational institutions. The
gifts for 1902 exceed the gifts of 1901
by $40, 500, 900 and those of 1889 by
$28, 900, 900: and, with the exception
of the large bequests of Mr.. Carnegie
and Mr.. Rockefeller and that of $I4,-
900, 900 by Winfield Scott Stratton of
Colorado Springs, the gifts ranged
mainly from $500 to 5000, 900, the
aggregate representing more givers
than the aggregate of any previous
year.
The $o4, 900, 900 given in 1902
went to colleges and universities, to
sanatoriums for consumptives, to hos
pitals, theological seminaries, public
libraries, homes for the poor, homes
for the incurable, art schools, indus
trial and technical schools, public
museums, kindergarten associations,
homes for the aged and inhrm, homes
for crippled children and for improv-
ing the condition of the poor in New
York and other large cities.
Among the larger gifts were those
of $I4 900, 900 from Winfield Scott
Stratton, for a home for the poor !;
SIS, 900, 900 from JOHN D. Rockefel-
1er; 81, 900, 900 from Mr.. and Mrs.
Harold Mccormick, for memorial
institute for infectious diseases ST.
900, 900 from Mrs. Henrietta A. Webb
to the Webb Academy and Home for
Shipbuilders S., 1000, 900 from John
Mckee, for an institution in Philadel-
phia for the education of white and
colored orphans, and 81, ,S45, 900 from
Robert c. Billings to various educa-
tional institutions.-Chicago Inter

7 W o Kx is.

Two stories are told in HaxpeT'S
Magazine of ministers stumbling on
texts of a humorous personal appli-
cation.
One was a very young minister,
having charge of his first church and
preaching a series of sermons on the
life and utterances of St. Paul. The
last one of these was given just be-
fore taking his leave, and during his
absence he expected to take unto
himself wife, his engagement hav-
ing been announced. After turn
ing over the leaves of the Bible
thoughtfully he said, IT invite your
attention this evening to these words
of the great apostle, i am ready now
to be offered up"
The other minister was a widower
who had remarked within year
after his first wife's death. His
friends and congregation thought him
very expeditions, and on the next
Sunday, when his text was announc-
ed, they could scarce control them
selves. He rose in his place in his
pulpit and said, "My beloved breth-
rem, you will find my text in the sew.
