JUNIOR REPUBLIC AFFAIRS.
Woman's League Decides to Give Bene

L.
The Woman's League of the Junior Re-
public held its April meeting at the home
of the president, Mrs Charles w. Fair
banks. There was a large gathering of
those who have been interested in the re-
public since its formation, and 1t was graft
flying to them to learn that the institution
was out of debt, and that its affairs are
conducted on a business basis. The spirit
of harmony existing between the superin-
tendent and employees. and the contented
condition of the boys was regarded as a
surety of future success. It was reported
that the useful industries that have been
established by the Baltimore League prom
Use good results. Several boys are learning
carpentering, and. through lectures on
scientific farming, it is hoped to make
some Of them good farmers. The lady

Train Sickness.


FROM TIE Lancet.
Road legs have to be acquired as much as
sea legs. and in the various forms of loco
motion, from the jolting omnibus to the
Quick-stopping tube and air-braked trains.
frequent opportunities arise for estimating
the varying amounts of agility, clutching

movements made by the cognoscenti in the
particular class of vehicle of which they
are for the time endeayoring to form
integral part. That all forms of travelling
are thing is evident from the common tea
dency to sleep in railway carriages.
The vagaries of the travelling public are
curious; some cannot ride except facing the
engine or the horses. others cannot travel
at all by railway; some have faint feelings
actually sick, and we have known the ut
most confusion caused to some unfortu-
mates by the seats opposite the direction in
which the train is moving being occupied.
though, curiously enough, the same feeling
Is not set up when the passenger can have
a seat placed parallel with the direction OF
progress. There Is reason to believe that
the action upon the eye muscles of the rap
idly changing parallax and the quick pas
sage of objects that are met and left have
much to do with the production of tired
feelings and of headaches caused by long
journeys. and great relief is often experi-
enced by simply closing the eyes or by re-
framing from looking out of the windows.

How to Get to Sleep.
From Leslie's Monthly.

FrOm LeSIeb monthly.
, When we are not necessarily over-tired
but perhaps only a little tired from the
days work, It is not uncommon to be kept
awake by a Mapping curtain or swinging
door, by unusual noises in the streets, or
by people talking.
If we are willing that the curtain should
go on Tapping, the door go on slamming.
or the noise in the street continue steadily
on. cur brains yield TO the conditions and
SO sleep naturally, because the noise goes
through US. so tosspeak. and does not run
hard against our unwillingness to hear it.
There are three faets-whieh may help to
One is that in afr,Tlc asA9 every sound there
is a certain rhytfrn.---1f we yield to the
sound enough to tec0me sensitive to it's
rhythm. that in itself is soothing and what
before was keeping IDS awake now helps us
to go to sleep. Ttesra,ythm of sound and
motion in sleeping sArAi and steamers Is in
steadily on it. yousV1h probably be asleep
in less than an hUtArsssand, when the car
stops. you will wakesa only enough to settle
comfortably into the sense of motion when
it starts again. It is pleasant to notice the
gentIeness with which good engineer
starts his train at night and gives us many
lesson on the use Of gentle beginnings,
with other things besides locomotive en-
gines. -
The second fact with regard to yielding,
instead of resisting. in order to get to sleep
is that listening alone. apart from rhythm,
tends to make one sleepy, and this leads
us al once to the third factsthat getting to
sleep is nothing but healthy form of con-
centration. s

NEW LEGISLATION SUGGESTED.
Question of Accepting Government
Asylum Certificates by Health Officer.

Health Officer Dr. William G.. Woodward
today submitted to Commissioner Macfar-
land a report relative to the communica-
ton from Dr. William A. White, superin-
tendent of the Government Hospital for the
Insane who stated in his letter that the
birth and death certificates issued by the
physicians at the hospital will not be
accepted by the local health authorities, and
requested that this condition of affairs be
remedied. He held that the certificates of
the government hospital physicians should
be accepted.
In his report on the matter Dr. Wood
ward suggests that Congress be asked to
provide legislation necessary to relieve the
existing conditions and Commissioner Mac
farland concurs in that recommendation.
The health officer states in his report that
so far as he is informed, the health depart
ment has never refused to receive and re-
cord certificates of birth issued by the SUI
perintendent of the Government Hospital
for the Insane or by medical officers con-
nected with that institution.
With regard to the issue of death certi-
ficates by the physicians at the govern
ment hospital DR.. Woodward says:
THE superintendent of the Government
Hospital for the Insane and the medical
officers connected with that institution are
in the same situation as are physicians
generally, that is, If they may lawfully
practice medicine In the District of CO.
lumDla, Death CeFtluCdteS issued Dy them
may be accepted as the basis upon which
to issue burial permits, otherwise they can
not be. Without considering the question
raised by the superintendent letter, as to
whether the medical officers connected with
the Government Hospital for the Insane
should or should not be required to demon
strate their fitness to practice medicine by
passing the examination required of ply
sicians who purpose practicing medicine In
the District, there is In my mind no doubt
that so long as the federal government per-
mits physicians who are not qualified prac-
ticioners of medicine in any state or ter
ritory to have charge of the inmates of the
Government Hospital for the Insane, the
death certificates issued by such physicians
should be recognized in cases of death from
natural causes.
Dr. Woodward therefore suggests that the
request of the superintendent of the Gov
eminent Hospital for the Insane be COM
piled with and that Congress be asked to
amend the bill to provide for the better
registration of deaths and births in the
District. so that there will be no obstacle
in the way of recognition of death certif-
Gates issued by officers and employees of St
Elizabeth's Asylum.

Girls of New Orleans.
From the National Magazine.


Poets and lovers of New Orleans will tell
you that the girl of the southern city gets
her pale creamy complexion from the mag
nolias that bloom in such profusion; her
grace and languid ease of motion from the
thousands of waving palms; the dusk of
her eyes and hair from the wondrous tropi-
cal beauty of the southern nights: her voice
from the whispering of the zephyrs and the
changeful song of the hooking bird Much
of her health is undoubtedly owing to the
fruit she eats; oranges like globes of green
fsh or russell gold into whose favor has en-
tered the perfume of the most delicious
flower in the fruit world. figs which are
flowers. purple without, rosy within, the
subtlest and most delicate of fruits; wa
termillion whose cool eolors are re-
freshlng OH a summer day as the draught
that comes from its crimson heart.

Russia's holy League.
ON the london Chronicle.

From the london Chf0hicie.
According to private letters from st. Pc
tersburg. there is much talk there again
about the activity of the Holy League"
which was founded during the reign of
Alexander III to protect the sacred person
of that monarch from the weapons OF his
secret enemies in the ranks of the nihilists,
or even the malignants of his court. It's
author was NJ Besobrasoff. an ex-guards-
man, who is now supposed to exercise a
paramount influence over the will of Nicho-
las II. The Holy League was composed
of all kinds of people in high position. and
Its object was to spy out intrigue against
the czar, as well as to shield his person.
On succeeding to the throne Nicholas II
would not hear of 1t. but now he appears
TO have invoked its assistance, and that is
why it's organizer. NJ Besobrasoff, is once
more in the ascendant.
