DISHWASHING AS A PANACEA.
Excellent Suggestion of a Clerical
Person for Saving Womankind.
rom the New Yn-k Tribune

From the New York Tribune.
Every now and then some prophet,
arisen out of the far west or up the state
or some other distant locality, comes to
New York and tells the people how to
cure the evil with which this city mas
been wrestling for some time now--to wit,
how to save women from treading the
downward path. The latest savior is a
clerical male person from Seattle. and
dishwashing is the panacea he prescribes.
Put girls to dishwashing in their early
youth. he says. and they will be ftled
with an occupation in life that will steady
their characters, fill their souls with joy
and arm them against any desire to de-
viate ever so little from the straight and
narrow path.
1t is an admirable suggestion. Dish
washing is, In the first place, such a re-
munerative career-its golden rewards
will buy such quantities OF hats and
gowns and rings and laces-those airy
trities for which most women long-and
which have beckoned too many sadly as
tray And then il is such thrilling in
mere man like the cleric from Seattle
should know and feel all this for few
men are so fortunate as to be admitted
to the delights of MISUNDERSTANDING
those whose fate 1t is to clean the china
in hotels and restaurants. and the en-
thusiastic intellectual expression of
whose countenances, as one catches
giimpses of them through the swinging
testimony to the uplifting character of
the occupation.
1t must be pure genius. instinct in
spirational insight that led the clerical
person from Seattle to his conclusions.
for 1t can't be supposed that he knows
much about washing dishes. He may
have helped with the cups after mis-
snonary tea, but that was merely tasting

The Hours Of Sleep.
From Health.


There is an old saying which in it's too
literal application has done an infinity of
mischief and has prevented a good many
people taking the rest that Is needful to
them: Mine hours sleep are enough for
fool That is as may be. but it is
none the less true that many who are
by no means fools feel that they require
quite that time to recuperate themselves.
Different constitutions require different
amounts of sleep. What is enough for
one person is totally inadequate for an
other. We are believers in sleep and
plenty of It, and the probabilities are
that the originator Of the phrase. Nine
hours sleep are enough for fool"
was philosopher and a cynic. and erred
In making his own frugality in this
respect the standard for the rest of man
kind. 1t will be conceded by all thought
full persons that the brain in very young
children requires quite twelve hours
sleep, and this period is shortened grad
ually until at fourteen years Of age a
boy is found to need only ten hours.
When full grown and in good health. a
man may find that eight hours are quite
sufficient to render him thoroughly re-
freshed and invigorated; but II he finds,
on the other hand, that the period is not
sufficient. then by all means II he can,
let him take more.

Skulls Old and New,
From the London Leader.


! Prof. Arthur Keith, Md. conservator
of the museum OF the Royal College or
Surgeons has prepared an illustrated
guide to the museum. and it adds greatly
to the interest of the collection for the
general public.
There are. for instance. hundreds OF
ancient and modern skulls. and explaAa-
tory notes upon them. The student OF
| crminoiogy Will find a wonderful field OF
research opened to him by comparing the
specimens with tho descriptions. Eugene
Aram and Jonathan Wilde, the famous
thief catcher. and himself the most no.
torious OF criminals. have their skeletons
preserved there, while the Barnard Davis
collection Of ASA ssins' skulls is still more
remarkable. There are freaks of all
kinds. from dwarfs OF few inches TO
| the skeleton o. Charles o Brian the Irish
,, giant. who measured close on eight feet.
and whose boots and other articles are
shown elsewhere.
In little room by themselves are col
lections OF surgical instruments used by
some of our greatest surgeons. In this
ROOM too, is a collection that was dug
from the ruins Of Pompeii, and the Oh
servant visitor will note the marvellous
similarity between these and those used
In this the twentieth century.
There are bottles full of rails pins.
marbles and other things which skillful
surgeons removed from the lunatics who
swallowed them.
Another kind of exhibit shows the ef-
fects of tight lacing and of 'phossy
jaw" There are specimens of the won
derful skill OF John Hunter the great
surgeon, who founded the museum. In
one room is shown the heads OF couple
of fowls into one of which he grated a
human tooth. and the other cocks spur
Both the tooth and spur continued To
grow. and. what was more singular, the
fowls seemed none the worse for TIA sir

Kings Head on Indian Coins.

From the London Times.
When the new Indian coinage was de-
signed at the beginning of King Ed
wards reign his majestys efdgy was
made to correspond as closely as possible
with the design adopted for this country.
The first British Emperor Of India was.
in consequence, represented to the ig-
norant and superstitious masses of India
without a crown or any OF the insignia
of imperial sway. Nothing could have
been more alien to Indian conceptions OF
sovereignty, and In its way the mistake
was serious from a political standpoint
1t was even said to have been the cause
of some serious disturbance In Madras.
Some correspondence the Bombay
Chamber of Commerce has had with the
government of India shows that, though
the error was persisted in. steps were in
progress to remedy the defect at the
time of King Edwards death, and that
il Is not likely to be repeated in the new
reign. When commenting on the pro-
posed issue of the new nickel anna
(penny) coin a year or two ago the cham
Der pointed out to the government that
IL would be polite were the cast OF the
emperor'S head to wear crown in all
denominations of Indian coin. The sug-
gestion was carried out with the new
nickel coin, but coins of other denom1na-
lions continued to be minted bearing the
old design In letter dealing with the
the Bombay chamber has pointed out that
the Edward coinage has not inspired
feelings of respect or veneration for roy
atty, a common belief in the native mind
| being that the effigy on the rupee was
| that of some official, and not that Of the
| king-emperor. who, in accordance with
| their ideas of regal dignity, could only
| be depicted with u crown and other en-
| blems of sovereignty. The effigy that
| approached closest to the Indian Ideal Of
A sovereign ruler was that depicted on
| the coinage toward the end Of Queen
NictOria's reign, when her majesty's head
and bust were represented with crown
and royal robes.
! Replying to this letter. the government
| OF India states that designs were actually

The Passing Game.

Close students Of foot ball have come
to the conclusion that the present season
will see the development Of skill in long
side passes never suspected as possible
in American college foot ball. This re-
suit is to be achieved, not by following
the example Of any particuNG team. but
will be the outgrowth of the necessities
! imposed upon teams by the new rules.
Heretofore the development of the for
ward pass has been along the line OF
throwing it as far down in the field as
possible. This year several teams have
| made the mistake of trying to throw
the ball directly over the line OF scrim-
mage
This mistake was only natural. since
the rules committee abolished the provis-
ion that the forward pass should cross
the line five yards to the side of center.
In nearly every game played to date II
has been found that the forward pass
thrown squarely over the line goes to the
opponents three-fourths OF the time. This
is due to the fact that the backs and
ends Of the attacking team cannot get
to the spot in time. Consequently, the
removal of the five-yard restriction has
not made the pass more effective.
One or two teams, however, have shown
tendency to develop the long side pass,
much after the example of the Canadian
and English teams. Any one who has seen
one OF these teams play must have been
passing and catching the ball on the
dead run This is something which has
never been properly developed in this
country. Our coaches, developed under
the old game, do not know how to coach
their men in the passing game, and it
looks as though the only way to accom-
plish it is by engaging a Canadian or an
Englishman to instruct in. this art At
the same time, few coaches are trying
their best to develop such system of
passing. DIR. Carl Williams Of the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania has concluded
that the future development of the game
will emphasize the passing feature, and
! that within few years we will be as
skillful as the English and Canadian
players.
Columbia University students, discour-
aged over the prospects of ever being
allowed to play foot ball, are just about
on the point Of disseminating even the
interclass games which they were al
lowed to start three years ago, with the
hope that they might later result in the
resumption of intercollegiate foot ball.
Now they have found that interclass foot
ball interferes with the other sports fos-
tered during the fall. And since foot ball
gives them no profit, they have resolved
to either discontinue the game as a class
feature or else to reduce the number OF
games and teams. 1t certainly looks
as though the day is far distant when
Columbia will take her place in college
foot ball.
