MANS WEAKER HALF.
One Side of His Body Always Strong. CT Than the Other.

The popular belief is that the left side is weaker than the right, and, as in all popular beliefs, there is much truth in this. In most cases, says the Grand Magazine, the right arm is decidedly stronger than the left, the bones are larger and the muscles more vigorous.
 When we come to consider the lower limbs, however, we find pre- cisely opposite state of affairs; the left leg is stronger than the right in the majority of cases. This want of symmetry is noticeable all through the body. Nine times out of ten we see better with one eye than with the other, and hear better with the left than with the right ear, or vice versa
 Not only so, an injury to the body "a burn .or a cut, for instance causes more pain on one side than Il would were it inflicted on the other Even diseases attack one side on their first onset in preference to the other. Eczema, varicose veins, sci. atica and even tuberculosis begin, in variably, to manifest themselves on our weaker side. A blistering plas. ter, too, will provoke an eruption only if applied to the right side 1T certain individuals; in others, only | if applied to the left side.
 The simplest way, apparently, o' discovering which is our weaker side is to observe which side we lie upor by preference when in bed. as it il certain that we will instinctivel! adopt the attitude which is mos agreeable, or, rather, which causel the least inconvenience; in otheI words, we will lie upon the side tn, muscles of which, being more vigor ous, are less sensible to the pressur' upon them of the weight of th' body.
 Statistics and observation go t prove that in about three cases ou of four it is the left side which i ,the weaker, thus giving reason t the popular dictum. Curiousl enough, however, pneumonia. 1t ha been noticed, unlike most diseases usually attacks at first the right that is to say, the stronger side Q the body.

It will not be long before the pure food bill will come to a vote, says a Washington writer. Matters are in such shape that it can at any time be made the unfinished business and vote on 1t may be arranged at any day. It is possible that the measure may pass at this sesison and it is al- most a certainty that if it does not it will pass and be signed by the presi- dent at the next session. Dr Wiley of the department of agriculture is, of course, the father of the bill, and he has lot of arguments" in the shape of adulterated foods of one sort and another spread out on two big trays at the department which he intends to send up to the Capitol to back his declaration that pure food bill is an absolute necessity. The custom house inspectors in New York played into his hands this week, too, and furnished him with what he has told number of friends is another good argument. It is to the effect that the market of the eastern states is being flooded with spurious pure olive oil.' This oil is of two sorts. One of them is imported right enough, but it is imported free and costs 40 cents a gallon. It comes in free under the declaration that it is purely for mechanical uses. And that is all it is fit for. It is the low est grade of refuse from the oil fac tories. When it gets into this coun- try, however, it is filtered to remove the dirt, little potash added to take out the rancid taste, for it is all of it rancid, and then is bottled and put on the market as .'pure lucca oil. |" This stuff, Dr Wiley declares, is en- tirely unfit for human consumption. Yet it is largely sold and there is no | federal law under which the vendors can be prosecuted. The other device is even more barefaced, though less harmful. The department found re- gently that the eastern end of the country was being flooded with cheap ''olive oil'' for which there was no equivalent record at the custom
 house, though all of it was labeled Imported. The inspectors finally found that 1t was manufactured by the carload in New York, oil, bottles
 labels and ali, and then sold outside the state. There were twenty-five samples captured by the Pennsyl, vania authorities and several hum dred dollars will be collected In fines from the men who sold it, but what the advocates of the pure food bill want is law under which the mak- CTS of the stuff can be prosecuted And this they say they will hare
 when the bill passes.

Americans are in the habit of as- suming that the rapid growth of cities is a peculiarity of this land of hust- lers. Statistics of population, how- ever, do not bear out this assumption. We have no such instances of growth as that of Duisburg in Germany, which in the past five years advanced from 93,605 to 191, ,551, or of Gelsen- kirchen, which jumped from 40,500 to 146,742 during the same period. These astonishing growths are doubtless due to the tremendous expansion of man. ufacturing in Germany and it's ten dency to swell urban populations.

more urgent question of rate legisla- ton was put out of the way. The tariff has contributed unquestionably toward the prosperity of this country, but the time has come when in many lines it is no longer necessary and when it has become an unjust bur den on the people. Still it is not so serious menace as the rate ques- tion and 1t can afford to stand aside till that issue is out of the way. But at the next session of congress 1t will have to be seriously considered and members from the protectionist dis tricts realize that as well as anyone. The proposal to have the ways and means committee sit during the sum- mer to take tariff testimony is an admission that revision is sure to come and a preparation to meet it with as many arguments in hand as possible. But the mere fact that preparation is being made for it is a hopeful sign. and those people who know that they are aggrieved by the present imposition of many schedules can prepare to present their cases to the committee It only remains for the revisionists to have their facts straight to insure the fighting of their grievance just as surely as the grievance of the railroad shippers will be righted when the new rate bill goes into effect. Now is none too early to begin to compile arguments for the consideration of the ways and means committee. And the more facts with which they can be con fronted, the more certain is revision to come and come right.

In answer to charge that actors are lawbreakers, Henry E.

This is probably about the same percentage of each profession as compared to the whole number in each and if true shows that neither is very bad.

Spasmodic attempts to reform the nuisance of giving tips meet with the fate of many other reforms and end in some sort of recognition of the evil and system of regulating 1t. Land- lords and restaurant keepers, acting in good faith, find themselves power less, because there is class of non- eyed patrons who enjoy ostentation or who really believe that the only way to get attention is to bribe the ser wants. Recently the United States ma val authorities framed an elaborate and particularized scale of tips for officers of the service while travelling at home and abroad. The scale for this country is as follows: Single meals, tip. 10 cents; tips on train, go cents day; tips will not be allowed on parlor car except on journey of five hours or longer; tips at hotels, 50 cents a day, but not to exceed S2 a week at one hotel. The scale is part of system regulating the expenses of officers with a view to curbing eS- travagance. On foreign tours an of ficer may tip the steamer servants $1.5O a day on a six days trip and S1 a day on trip of fifteen days or longer. At foreign hotels the officer is permitted to give away $3.5o d week on tips. The rapacious parasite of the continent will doubtless shun the American officer who attempts to live up to these regulations. The home scale is as liberal as that in vogue among we'll to do and intelli- gent people. on ordinary occasions.
