From the president down the men
who are charged with the performance
Of public duties and, who are servants
of the people must be free from any
suspicion of control by the RAILROADS.
Senators and representatives, judges,
members of our state legislatures and
of our city councils all ought to pay
their fare when they find it necessary
to travel. If their salaries are not
high enough to enable them to do this
then We must Increase them. But
under no circumstances must the rail-
roads be permitted to confer favors on

SHORT LIVED DOCTORS.
Diseases which Are Most Deadly to
the Medical Profession.


The diseases which claim the most
victims among physicians relatively to
all males are govt and diabetes, and
there is a high relative mortality from
diseases of the nervous system, circula-
tory system and kidneys, says the Sci
entific American
From the nature of his habits the
physician is not subject to accidents,
and, though he is brought into contact
with infection to a greater extent than
other men, his preventive means are
successful and his mortality from in
lection is very low Freedom from pro-
lOnged muscular strains and high blood
tension apparently saves him from
arteriosclerosis, but suicide claims
many and so do the drug habits ac-
quired by the nervously exhausted. 1t
has been said that three-fourths of
French morphine users are physicians.
The cause of the physicians early
death is evidently the excessive nerv-
Gus expenditure, insufficient rest and
defective nutrition, inseparable from
his calling. with its broken and restrict
ed sleep, irregular hours of work, rest
and meals and worry when lives de-
pend upon his judgment and the lack
of a day of complete relaxation in each
week. The physician who sees his pa
tients every day in the week, month
after month and cannot learn to forget
them when he goes home merely burns
the candle ut both ends. lie violates
the law observed by every anJlul, that
there shall be short periods Of moder-
ate exertion interrupted by longer peri
DDS Of rest when repairs are made. 1t
is not too much work as a rule, but
scattered work, which prevents rest.

The Way They Grow and How the
Plants Reproduce.

The Way They Grow and How the
Plants Reproduce.
Pineapples do not grow on trees. I'M
agine a plant four feet in extreme
height from the ground to the tip of
leaves. \ single stalk at the surface,
but dividing at once into swordlike
blades or leaves, fifteen in number,
from the center of which appears q
stiff, upright stem, at the top of which
is the fruit. This stem is short, and the
crown of the fruit when fully grown
is a foot or more below the points of
the leaves. At the end of a year and
half from planting each plant pro
duces a single fruit. even as cabbage
pineapple does not die after fruiting
once. Down on the stem below the
fruit and among the long, narrow
leaves a sucker appears. If allowed to
remain this will soon become the head
of the plant, and within another year
1t will yield another fruit This process
may go on for term of years. In the
meantime, however other suckers will
make their appearance.
These are broken off, and when stuck
into the ground they put out roots and
become other plants. Thus a single
pineapple plant may produce a dozen
or more others while it is yielding fruit
from year to year.-New York Herald

Dear Sir: Devoe is worth "a or So a
gallon, put-on; how much is another
paint worth?
Depends on how many gallons you've
got to put-on, to be equal to one of De-
voc.
Mr.. j. j. Hill, Sheffield, Pa, painted
two houses one coat, five years ago,
lead-and-oil, took 40 gallons.
Last summer bought 40 gallons De-
woe for same houses; had Legations left.
Mr.. N. Avery, Delhi, n. Y, owns
two houses exactly alike; painted one
with Devoe; took 6 gallons. The other
with some other; took II gallons.
What'd you give for those off paints ?
Bear in mind, you've got to pay for the
painting.
Yours truly,
