At the conference of the managers
Of the New York Central Lines, held
in New York June 9Th, all lines be-
ing represented by their General
Managers and Passenger officials. 1t
was decided, beginning with the regu-
lar summer change, Sunday. June
18th. to quicken the speed of the
"Twentieth Century Limited so as
to make the time between New York
and Chicago eighteen hours instead OF
twenty hours, the New York Central
Lines having made the twenty hour
time during the past three years, and
having also made the run between
New York and Chicago in twenty
hours with their Exposition Flyer"
for the one hundred and eighty days
of the Columbian Exposition in Chi
cago in 1898. twelve years ago.
The New York Central Lines make
the point that t'e New York Central
has had in service the Empire State
Express" which has been the fastest
train in the world for Its distance.
440 miles for fourteen years, having
hSiu lHt NoIlu ItCpIu lOI tudl llLue,
and for three years and 1870 days hav-
ing held the worlds record for a
thousand mile train in twenty hours
The proposed schedule Of eighteen
hours is simply the extension of the
time of the Empire State Express"
through from Buffalo to Chicago, the
time having been made for fourteen
years between New York and Buffalo
On this new schedule. the train will
leave Chicago at 2:30 p. m, arriving
Grand Central Station, New YORK,
at $3.50 next morning. and returning,
will leave New York $3.50 p. M, reach
ing Chicago $50 a. m. following day.
AT the same time. the Lake Shore
Limited will be quickened up an
hour and will make the time from
Chicago to New York in 23 hours in.

"It'a Ali Dead"

A physician recently related an Incl
dent which had. come under his OBJ
servation showing the aversion a GER
tain little fellow of entertained for
dead chickens. On being seated at a
table upon which was an uncarved
chicken. he cried out in evident dis
tress, ITS all dead. mamma! l must
have hurted it," and he could scarcely
be persuaded to remain at the table
until the dead creature was carved
past recognition.
Children are naturally tender and
sympathetic, not only toward each
other, but also solicitous for the well
fare Of the lower animals. The parents
of this child will probably congratulate
themselves when his tender nature be-
comes so calloused that the sight of a
dead animal being devoured will seem
to him entirely consistent, and will no
longer excite his pity.
Many of the boys in the stock yard
districts of our large cities are further
advanced in education in this line, for
they consider it rare amusement to

unloaded from the stock cars. One
method is to poke them with red-hot
irons until the animals give vent to
the most piteous outcries.
The barbarous custom of college
haZing is another manifestation Of
this same spirit of cruelty. which,
when implanted early enough in the
H.. i
tered and cultivated, will invariably
in due time produce a bountiful har-
vest of undesirable fruits in various
shocking manifestations of human
cruelty.

STRAWBERRY A PERFECT FOOD
Fruit Juices Admirably Adapted to Those
Requiring Light Diet.

Rest means relaXation-not only of
the body. but OF the mind also. In
America. particularly, we are apt to
forget this. That is why nervous
Drostration" is such popular phrase
just now. The Germans, as a nation.
go more slowly than we do in all
things; the English and even the
French take life more easily. Perhaps
our atmosphere conduces to energy
and hurry. At any rate the popularity
of such words as Strenuous" hustle"
and the like. in this country, show our
attitude as a nation,
or course We cannot Immediately
change all this. We do not wish to.
Enthusiasm and energy. hard work
and hard thinking. have brought us
to our present state of prosperity, and
we cannot afford to fall back now. Nor
do We need to. Hard work, whether
OF hand or brain. does not kill. but
continual work and worry do. II we
would secure the future generations
from nervous degeneration, we must
learn how and when to relax.
This is very hard for some tempera.
ments. Some people must have their
hands constantly occupied in some
way, and it is difficult, of course, to
remember that haste is often slower
than deliberation. We say that have
no time to go slowly.
A great fault in busy people is their
failure to relax thoroughly at night.
Many go to bed and sleep, after a
fashion, but with tense nerves. The
mind should be as divested of worries
and cares at bedtime as the body is Of
clothes. The muscles must be relax
ed. II exercises are taken at night,
they should end in a few especially
for relaxation. Some of the most
helpful of these relaxing exercises
may be mentioned:
l. Stand easily erect, chest raised
and abdomen in, and let the head fall
gently forward, then arms and trunk
above the waist. All this must be
done without effort. the breath being
gently expelled at the same time. Aft
er little pause, raise the body slowly.
2. Stand erect. raise the arms
above the head and let them fall
first the fingers, then the wrists, then
the arms.
3. Let the arms hang at the sides.
then slowly and gently swing them
from side to side. gradually letting the
head and then the body swing with
them.
Remember that yOur object Is to re-
lax the muscles and do all these exer-
cises easily and with as little exertion
as possible.

Rest,

Few people really know how to rest.
Exercise Is very necessary TO health
and many do not take enough of it;
but on the other hand, perhaps even
more people rest too little, or what
amounts to the same thing, do not
rest properly. No matter how we'll de-
veloped the muscles are, if they are
rigid and stiff they will not do the
best work. They must be readily re-
laxed when not in use. Even athletes
if they really understand the laws Of
exercise, strive for relaxation as we'll
as for well-developed muscles.
