THE BEAT OF THE PULSE.
It Varies Greatly In Different Per-
sons and Conditions.

It Varies Greatly In Different Per-
sons and Conditions.
The pulse of women generally beats
at slightly faster rate than that of
men. It may be said that when a per-
son is at rest his pulse, that Of any
adult, may be from seventy-fve to
eighty times minute. Great variation
exists in different individuals in re-
spect of the number of beats. After
exercise the pulse quickens because of
the stimulation of the heart. and the
same result applies to the effects of
taking food. A dose Of alcohol will also
stimulate the pulse somewhat, just as
the use of tobacco, especially in excess,
will tend to have an opposite effect
namely, that Of lowering the rate Of
the pulse, because of the depression Of
the heart which results. In fevers and
indammatory diseases the pulse rate
tends to be very much increased and
also in respect Of its character. Instead
Of beating quietly the blood vessel in
such cases exhibits a very full and
bounding movement. On the other
hand, where depression exists ana the
temperature of the body falls, the
pulse may be unnaturally slow and its
character weak. Physicians are accus-
toned to distinguish other characteris-
tics in the pulse, such as become valu-
able hints in the discovery and deter
mination of disease. The practical les-
son we learn here is that where the
pulse continues for any length Of time
to have its beats quickened to an un-
natural degree and where especially a
rise of the temperature or heat Of the
body accompanies these symptoms we
ought to suspect some kind Of feverish
condition or other to be represented.
The pulse alone forms a valuable
enough guide to this state OF the body,
but its value is very much increased if
to the information given US by the
pulse we add that which the use of the
thermometer supplies.-Cardiff Times.

Artists as Sign Painters.

It is surprising how many noted Eng
lish artists began life by painting inn
signs. Among them were Morland, Da-
vid Cox, Herring and Sir William
Beechey. Millais painted George and
Dragon sign for the George inn, Hayes
common. Another George and Dragon.

sided sign painted by two r. AS. Cor.

are signs by Walter Crane and Cation
Woodville at Grayshott and Fittle-
worth. Hogarth painted a number of
signs for friendly publicans.

the many and upbuilds the few. I'm.

LID QUESTION Can't :. :. e. e.
CARRY NEXT COUNCIL
Story in Herald is Made up of
Whole Cloth Enough
Candidates Are Pledged.
Supposed lid" Candidates
Deny They Stand for Coun-
ellis Meddling.

The Herald has started lot Of
cheap talk about the probability Of the
next council being lid council" Its
story Of Wednesday evening was
made out of whole cloth, and there are
few knowing ones in the political
life of this city who know something
of the animus which prompted it.
A careful analysis of the standing
Of the several candidates for aldermen
would indicate that no matter who is
elected the common sense policy estab-
lished by the present council will be
carried out in the next. This council
has never declared against the lid. It
simply refuses to NEEDLE in the affairs
OF the executive department Of the
city. . .
The alderman who is accused of be-
ing the friend of the saloon because
he cali not keep step with the fiddlers
who believe in adopting any means to
accomplish their end, is put in false
light. So far as we are concerned we
know what we would do if we were
mayor of Duluth-that is farthest from
our thoughts at this moment-but as
an alderman we are doing what we
believe is our duty in refusing to die
tate to Mayor Culluhh as to how he
should administer the affairs of this
city. " -.
Should the mayor. of this city at
tempt to NEEDLE in the affairs of the
council there would be some offensive
snubbing going on about the city hall,
and we think we know of one or two
aldermen who would be first to pro-
test against such meddling. This is a
rule which can work both ways. The
mayor is responsible to the people for
the conduct of his office, and not to
the common council. The council has
all 1t can. attend to when it minds it's
own business.
Of the candidates for aldermen but
three are in favor Of meddling with the
duties Of the mayor, or to put it the
other way, are pronounced cid" can
didates. Former Alderman Waugh
record in the council would indicate
that he is not an advocate of the med
ding plan. He has given no public
utterance that would warrant any one
in calling him the lid" candidate in
the third ward
Even the independent candidates for
aldermen in the fifth and seventh
wards, Ringsred and McCauley, both
declare they are not cid candidates.
This being true the Herald will have
a difficult time figuring out how the
next council can be controlled by med
dlers.

IN the name OF INV.
THE OLD CHESTNUT. They tell
us that the present tariff system is to
protect the American wage.earner
against the pauper labor of Europe.
Well! How is it then that every Euro
pean country from which this pauper
labor might come has high protec-
tive tariff at home? If high tariff pro-
duces pauper labor there, what is
there to prevent it's doing the same
thing here in time? Truly Republican
politicians have hoodwinked the labor.
ing class in this country long enough.
Accommodating milllonaires and shout
ing prosperity in consequence may do
for stand patters, but it does not sat-
isfy the we'll informed American wage
Garner any more. The American wage
Garner Of today Is an intelligent being,
and he knows that the true test Of a
nations happiness and prosperity is
not the amount of it's wealth alone,
but the extent to which that wealth
is diffused among the people. If the
Republican party does not recede from
its tariff "stand pattlsm" it's doom is
signed, sealed and delivered, and even
Theodore Roosevelt cannot save it
from utter annihilatiOn.

THE NEED OF RECIPROCITY.

The late William Mckinley, on the
day of his assassination at Buffalo in
September, 1901, warned the American
people that the period of exclusive
ness had passed; that the expansion
of our trade and commerce was the
pressing problem; that the day of JUS
LITIGATION for high tariff schedules was
drawing to a close. This wise counsel
of our beloved and martyred president
the Republican party has ever since
ignored. Why? Because the party is
owned, body, soul and spirit by an ar
rogant and unfeeling class of monop-
olists, who are blind to every consid-
GRAFTON but that of interest; deaf to
every cry but that of gain;-a class
rapidly becoming experts in oppres-
sion and graft. That's the reason.
Our agricultural and industrial en-
terprises today are rapidly outgrowing
home consumption. Many of our COM
modities are dependent upon foreign
markets. Our export trade, according
to a statement made on the floor of
congress last week reaches an annual
volume of over a billion and a half of
dollars. To cultivate harmonious trade
relations with other countries becomes
more and more necessary every day.
And yet the tariff methods of the Re-
publican party are producing antagon-
lsms everywhere. Instead of making
friends they are making enemies. It
is a fact that foreign nations are con-
structing retaliatory tariffs against us.
1t was only the other day that we read
OF Germany's postponing for a while
the operation of her retaliatory tariffs
against American goods in the hope
that the good sense of the American
people may eventually prevail against
the stand pat politicians and that our
tariff schedules would be modified
and their inequalities corrected. The
practice of constantly placing our
country in an attitude of defiance be-
fore the world is neither just to our
selves nor generous to others. This
talk of protecting American industries
is unadulterated rot. Why do Amer
lean manufacturers need protection
when they undersell foreign competi-
tors in foreign markets, and sell their
American products cheaper abroad
than at home? Can there be a more
unanswerable condemnation of the un-
righteousness of the tariff than this ?
