His swims in icy water at untoward sea-

able attention. Glenister does not believe
that water of that temperature Is neces-

Why varicocele Causes Sexual
Weakness.

varicocele is weakened and broken
down condition Of the spermatic veins and
sexual circulation. The life of important
organs is involved. The glands are denied
the proper quantity and quality Of blood,
and in consequence Of the stagnation the
parts become weakened and wasted. The
nerves are life. and the life of the nerves
is the blood. As the circulation is sluggish,
so does the sexual vigor become. yarico-
cele slowly but surely lowers the standard
of vitality and denletes the nervous sys-
TEN. which is the, foundation of physical
strength and that masterful quality which
is best expressed liy. the term-manliness.

lete. with normal chest expansion of 50
inches and an inflated measurement OF IS
inches. His first noteworthy feat in the
water was swimming from Narrsgansett

AGREEMENT MADE
BY ARB|TRATORS
Men Are to Receive an
Increase of | l-2 Cents
per Hour
MAKES BIG DIFFERENCE
IN WLLkLY PAlROlLS
The Scale is Satisfactory to the Un-
ion and Everything is Now
Progressing Nicely Along
the Bay.

After naming at least half dozen
men to act as umpire, none of which
accepted, the arbitrators in the strike
situation yesterday settled the matter
between themselves and with but very
little trouble.
AS is well known the merchants
were holding out on the old scale
of II IL cents per hour. while tho
union was demanding raise of 2 IL
cents per hour. A compromise was
finally reached and hereafter all la
borers who have been receiving
II IL cents will get Ia.
This scale was accepted by bo.h
sides and to say the least OF it ali
concerned are glad that the matter
has been amicably adjGEed. The
laborers, while they still think their
work is worth Is cents per hour,
will abide by the decision of the ar
bitrators, and not word of protest
was heard yesterday.
Difference in Payroll.
The increase OF l IL cents per
hour will make a big difference in
the payrolls along the bay eacn weo--
While the amount will be divided
between the different merchants each
of them will keenly feel the increase
Say that 700 men went out on the
strike. This will make the payroll
just $500 more than it was heretofore.
In other words each of the men who
went out on the strike, and in fact all
who do outside work will receive 80
cents per week increase or salary Of
$S.40 per week, provided they put
in full time. While the lumbermen
will feel the incrase in paying ont,
the merchants OF the city will also
feel it, as every cent of the money
will be spent in the city.

David Lamar, the Wall street broker
whose name has figured prominently
in the papers of late, was called for
triad today at Freehold, N. ]. Lamar

his i0rmer coachman, of hiring
Monk" Eastman and James Brown,
two leaders of the notorious Cherry
Hill gang Of toushs oi that city, to
