GOVERNMENT BY EPIGRAM.

"Epigrams have been most useful to
me in many ways. They make men
think" Thus the Cleveland chief of
police, who begins the daily publica-
ton of an epigram in the police paper
of that city with this example: Good
advice is usually distasteful to these
who need it most"
There are several extraneous aids
20 efficiency in Office. His Excel
lency the Governor" in the GilbeIt
opera tried practical jokes on his sub
Ordinates-compelled the guards to do
ballet dances instead of drills and
organized butter slides for the unsus-
pecting syndic. Devery used epigrams
and coined them himself If the
Cleveland chief will find room for his
unfading sentiment, "A policeman has
got right to have some sense" there
will be no need of publishing other
official proverbs. Gen. Bingham uses
birthstone and mythology.
Whether nine gods of war or Jew
els five words long" are to be pre-
ferred in the inculcation of Official
discipline is matter very much at
issue just now.

According to a decision of Judge
Chapman in Cleveland on Saturday the
last obstacle in the way of the con-
Btruction of the new three-cent car line
is removed. The builders of the line
announce that they will now go ahead
and lay the tracks as soon as the rails
can be secured. The proposed three
cent car line has been fought at every
turn by the owners of the present
company now operating over the
streets Of the Forest city and now that
the last obstacle that has been in the
way is removed, the building of the
road will be watched with interest by
abe people all ever Ine country.

REMEDY FOR DEeENERAcY.
Lecturer Declares Man should Live
Hundred and Fifty Years.

The causes of human degenerscy,
disease and premature death were dis
cussed by DR.. Lyman B. Sperry of OBJ
erlin, says the Washington Star. That
people can live to be $50 years old, by
proper care, was the opinion express
sed by the speaker. He has been a
medical practitioner for many years,
and has studied the matters whereof
he speaks. He presented his conclu-
sions in his speesh suggesting not only
the cause for disease and premature
death, but also the remedy.
At the Introduction. of his speech
DR.. SperTy gave a snapshot view of the
race, taking up it's condition at pres
ent and its environments. Twenty per
cent of the babes born, he said, die
within one year; only one-half grow
up to years of maturity. The average
length of life in the best countries is
less than forty years; people are called
old at 20 and very old at So and mar
vel at 100. 1t is in humanity, he said,
for individuals to live to be $50 years
old, BEAUTIFULLY, happily and efficient
ly.
Men are apt to blame natural condi-
laria, etc.-for their diseases and pre-
mature death. But If people would
live as they should those conditions
would scacely be recognized.
The chief causes for diseases, race
degeneracy and premature death, he
classed under seven main heads-first,
war; second, narcotism; third, excess;
fourth, mal-nutrition; fifth, mal-res-
piration; sixth, overwork or excessive
wear and tear, and seventh, worry or
mental friction. He took UP each OF
these various causes in detail and
showed how the Americans were either
gluttonous or starving, each one of
these various ways. In the case of war
he showed that, even when the country
is not involved in war, the men are
taken into the army at their period of
greatest development, become discon-
tented, and learn that which hinders
future progress.
"ln proportion to his salary man
can buy more food in the United States
than in any other country of the
globe" DR., Sperry asserted, in talk
ing of mal-nutrition. Although food
products here are high, we live in a
land of plenty and our wages are high.
In other countries, especially European
and Asiatic, the wages are extremely
low and the vast hordes of population
must be fed from relatively smaller
territory"
The cure for the conditions thus emu
merated, he said, was the removal of
the causes. In the case of war, arbi-
tration of international disputes would
aid materially. In most cases, educa-
ton and the stimulation such as given
by the Y. NJ. G.. A. against these abuses
will help much to remove these causes
of race degeneracy.

THE RAILS LAID BY TOM
JOHNSON JUST TAKEN UP
Through Cars Soon Between Cleve-
land and New PHILADELPHIA,

Through Cars Soon Between Cleve-
land and New Philadelphia.
New Philadelphia, o., June 3.-The
TuscaTawas Traction company has
just relaid with heavy rails, the
tracks Of the old Canai Dover & New
Philadelphia street car line. This is
thought to have been the first line
built by Tom Johnson in Ohio. The
rails just AIKEN up were put down by
the Cleveland mayor. The line is now
link in the through road between
Cleveland and UhrichsviIle, which Is
being arranged by the consolidation
of the Northern Ohio Traction com
pany, the Canton & Akron and the
Canton & New Philadelphia lines. AS
soon as the consolidation is effected it
is expected that limited cars will be
run between Cleveland and this city,
and that through service will be in
augurated between Akron and
Uhrichsyille. The company is also
rebuilding the line between this city
and Uhrichsville, cutting out the
grades and Strengthening the track.
and also building two heavy bridges.

How to Manage Husbands.

Most quaint is some of the advice to
lished in 1887. The volume describes
itself as IAN infallible Guide to the
Fair Sex, containing Rules, Directions,
and Observations for their Conduct
and Behaviour through all Ages and
Circumstances of life; as Virgins,
Wives, or Widows, with Directions how
to obtain all suitable to the Sex" If
the lady's husband was choleric she
was told how to secure her own way
by dexterously yielding everything till
he begins to cool, and then by slow
degrees she may rise and gain upon
the Man" or when other Remedies
are too weak, a little Flattery may be
admitted, which, by being necessary,
will cease to be criminal. with a COW
etous husband, pride, ambition, vanity,
anger kindness, or even dose of
wine, may be expected ito open or
enlarge his narrow Mind" "The wife's
business must be to watch for critical
moments, and not let one of
them slip without taking ad-
vantage Of it." And wife
may be said ito want skill il
by these means she is not able to Sc
cure herself in Good Measure against
the inconvenience this scurvy Quality
in her husband might bring upon her."
All the frailties of poor, erring hus-
bands are here set forth, singly. in
plain, unmistakable language, neatly
docketed, each with the recipe for
cure appended thereto.
There are other interesting passag-
es in the same book or spinstcrs the
author says: IAN old maid is now
thought such curse as no poetic fury
can exceed, looked on as the most cal
amitous creature in nature. Modesty
and Obedience, though necessary to
all, ara yet in a more eminent degree
required here. Their Look, their
Speech, their whole Behaviour should
own humble distrust of themselves"
Concerning amusements this "The
reading of Romances seems now to be
thought the peculiar and only Study
of young Ladies. 1t must be confessed
their Youth may a little adapt 1t to
them when they were children, and
We wish they we're always in their
event as harmless"
On another vanity: There is also
another great devourer Of Time-we
mean Dressing. Sure tbs allowable up
on soberer account that those who
design Marriage should give them
selves the advantage of decent Orna-
ments, and not by the negligent Rude
ness OF their Dress belly Nature, and
render themselves less amiablo than
she has made them. But all this being
granted, twill by no means justify
that excessive Curiosity and Solicitude,
that Expense of Time and Money. too,
which Is more used"

Investigating Psychical Phenomena.

NEW loRk, Jan. 22.-Dr. Isaac n
Funk, who for many years has been
identified with psyehical research, last
night discussed the claim of western
man that he had held a communication
with the spirit .of the late DIR. Richard
Hodgson of Boston.
DIR. Funk said that he expected to be
able to communicate with Dr. Hodeson's
spirit on January %. He based his
hopes ON statement made to him by
Professor J. II. Hyslop, OF Columbia
University. who was referred TO in the
message credited to the spirit of DR..
Hoigson.
OF report that he and Mrs. Mary
Pepper had communicated with the
spirit Of DIR. Hodgson, DIR. Funk said:
1t is wholly untrue and without any
foundation. have held no such com
munieation and do not know OF such
communication being held. have never
made any statement about the Hodgson
case, but am anxiously awaiting the
result of further developments.
Professor Hyslop has told me that
he expects that by January 25th DR..
Hodgson's spirit will be able to com.
municate with those he has left behind. |
I am very curious TO begin investigation
on that line as soon as the time ap-
pointed by DR.. Hyslop arrives. | have
done nothing as yet and am awaiting
