The Value Of Laughter.
IT find nonsense singularly refresh
Ing" said Talleyrand. There is good
philosophy in the saying. Laugh and
grow fat" Laughter begins in the
lungs and diaphragm, setting the liver,
stomach and other internal organs into
a quick. jelly-like vibration which
gives a pleasant sensation and exercise
almost equal to horseback riding. The
heart beats faster, sends the blood
bounding through the body, increases
the respiration and gives warmth and
glow to the whole system. Laughter
brightens the eye, increases the perspi-
ration, expands the chest, forces the
poisoned air from the least used lung
cells and tends to restore that exqul-
site poise or balance which we call
health and which results from the har-
monious action of oil the functions Of
the body. This delicate poise, which
may be destroyed by a sleepless night,
q piece Of bad news, by grief or ankle
ty, Is often wholly restored by a good
hearty laugh. A jolly physician Is often
better than all his pills.-O. s. Marden.

Mayor Mcclellan Objects
to Public Utilities Bill.
GIVES Ills REASONS
He Says the Effect Of the Bill Would
be to Vest loo Much Power in
One Political Party.

New York May 29.-Mayor McClel.
ian on Tuesday recorded his official
disapproyal Of the public utilities bill,
which he sent back to the legislature
where. Il is expected, 1t will be re.
passed without the mayors signature.
In a memorandum accompanying the
measure the mayor explains that
while he is i'm accord with the general
principles embodied in the bill il Is as
a whole 80 destructive of the principle
Of home rule that but one course was
open to him.
This was his basic objection, but the
mayor adds. in effect that such legls-
lation would result inevitably in the
appointment of partisan commissions
ers, who in times of party stress
would use their power to coerce the
transportation companies into furnish
ing funds with which to corrupt the
electorate. Mayor Mcclellan says in
part:
For the first time in the history of
our state there are to be created two
administrative bodies vested with
power heretofore exclusively eXercis-
ed by the legislature, of regulating
street and elevated railroad, gas, cleo
trio light and power companies. The
combined capitalization Of these com.
panies is s3,322, ,537,9lG. The gross
earnings from operation last year
were approximately $533 100000; the
number of employees upwards Of 30O,-
coo and the number Of security hold
eFs not less than 100000
The commissioners are to be APP
pointed by the governor and as they
may be removed by him or his success
sors they will become the direct
agents OF each succeeding governor.
There is no provision that the commits
sions shall be bipartisan or non-parti-
san. and all the members may be OF
the same political party. What may
be, will be. And If this bill becomes i
Law, we shall, in the near future, see
these commissions composed entirely
OF political partisans with great con
sequent injury to the state and the
properties affected.

feeling Is intense and the presidency,

which to corrupt the electorate.
