The advantages offered by the three
months of Arctic summer are SO MIN,
erous that there have appeared recent
ly several announcements Of floating
and permanent hospitals for patients
suffering from incipient pulmonary AFT
fections and neurasthenic states. Ac-
cording to the British Medical Jour.
nal, it is proposed to erect a sanator-
ium on the shores Of Lake Torne, in
Lapland, a long and beautiful sheet Of
water at WassijauYe, near the end Of
the Ofote Railroad. That railroad, it
may be mentioned, has only one sta.
ton in a distance Of I'll miles. There
is no human dwelling near that sta
ton. which is on the line between Swe.
den and Norway, and was erected sole
ly for the requirements Of the customs
Office. Except for a small settlement
at Wassijauve, the only sign of human
existence in the district is the occa-
sional passage Of few Laplanders
with their herds OF reindeer Already
there has been installed at this spot a
scientific station in a solidly built
blockhonse containing seven rooms,
and it is proposed to build the SAM.
torium in the same way.
In American Medicine DR.. Frederick
Sohon has called attention to the great
advantages Of the Arctic climate. We
learn that Dr. Sohon has decided to

Convict Returns a Purse.

Though a prisoner in the County jail
at Morristown, convicted for stealing,
James Vanderbush has SO far re-
formed that when he found a pocket
book while cleaning around the Court
House he at once called the attention
Of some of the officials to his find.
Before be reached the Sheriff office a
woman hurried into the Court House,
anxiously inquiring If any one had
seen a purse. She described the purse
and said that it contained 81, and
after she had identified it Vanderbush
returned the pocketbook to her She
almost snatched it from the man and
FASTENED away without word AS
she departed the prisoner was heard
to remark: Isn't that just like human
nature to not even say, thank your
Vanderbush is now one of the "trusty"
prisoners and is serving out an extern
sion Of time on his original sentence
for stealing. After he had been in jail
several months he broke out but was
recaptured. His good behavior after
his return impressed the officials, who
made him "trusty'' and they feel that
his action in returning the purse he
found has justified their confidence in
him.

Not an Object Of sympathy.

A messenger boy with his bicycle
was toiling up the steep Eleventh
street hill from Baltimore avenue to
Wyandotte street. The snow was too
deep for riding, and the lad walked,
dragging his wheel. He sang popN-
lar coon ditty as he trudged along. A
ragged pair of gloves only partially
covered his hands. He had no over
coat and dirty handkerchief was
tied around his ears A woman,
warmly clad in furs, saw the lad, and
her heart was filed with pity.

The recent suggestion of a Kansas
milling company that the troubles Of
the Southern planters could be cor
rected to large extent by the more
general use Of cotton bagging foi
Southern products, is being generally
discussed among business people in
the cities Of the Southern cotton belt
and they all indorse the idea, says the
New York News. It depends, OF
course, upon the farmers whether they
win use cotton covers instead Of jute
for their cotton bales, and many uses
TO which the proposed new wrapper
could be put Even with products
which the farmers do not originate
they could secure the use Of cotton
wrappers by insisting upon receiving
these foreign products only in cotton
covers. In this way they would be
creating a demand for their own staple
ana maintain the price. Many mills
stand ready to make stouteF cotton
wrapping cloth II the demand is only
created, ana the cost will be but little

room by friends. On the stand Miss
Hart contradicted the story told by
Miss Procell, that she had forced Elsie
Ernst into crib that was too short
and pressed on her body until the blood
gushed from the child's mouth. She
fatty contradicted the story Of wit
nesses for the State who swore that
she was intoxicated and that the water
in the bathtub was too hot to be en-
dured by the child.

INNOVATION IN FRENCH ARMY
FIexion March Has Become Fad Of
Military Instructors.


Military Instructors.
French army officers entertain
firm belief in the efficacy of the fex-
ion march, remarked a military man
who recently returned from a trip to
Europe. ut is declared that the
tlexion march is really something new
and will eventually be adopted in all
the leading armies of the world.
A general idea of the body move
ments is that the knees must be al
ways bent and the feet lifted no high
er than necessary to clear the me-
qualities Of the ground, the step being
made neither by the toe nor by the
heel. The football should be noise
less and the steps at first short and
frequent. The body must lean we'll
forward the back must be straight
and the head erect, the chest open
and the shoulders low. It is recon-
mended that when at drill short
stick be held with both hands in front
OF the chest. The lessons should not
be more frequent than two or three
times week.
Medical comments on the fexion
march, however, are somewhat sarcas-
tic. being TO the effect that there is
nothing new in this discovery by the
French army. This style of march
Ing. it is declared, has heen in vogue
among the American Indians since
they have been known to the white
man. The forward stoop of the Indian

laziness, indifference, shiftlessness, I'M

depriving her children of decent meals
