A VETERAN U USE FACTOR. Ills Pn*t l.lfc. Ur ll.is to Say l»i Tlint AMoil Wi'SiS Nonrly forty yeura ago a young man, 5f „umiaunl endowments, began to mold public opinion upon a aubject of vital importance, liiko all pioneers, bis early efforts were un successful, but his ability and the valuo of bis work soon wou public confidence, and to-day there is not a village or hamlet in the country that has not been influenced by Dr. Dio Lewis. When, therefor. 1 , it was learned yesterday that ho contemplated the estahlish- mentof* a largo magazine in tlii* city, the - fn<?t was deemed f-o important that a ropre- uentativoof this paper was commi-sioued to sec hi in and ascertain the truth of the rumor. #Dr: Dio Lewis is a gentleman of sixty years and two hundred potiudu, with snow-white ^ hair and beard, but nrobably the most per fect/picture of health an t vigor in the me tropolis. Ho is a living exponent of his • •touchings, and notwithstanding the amount of work holms already done, promises still greater*activity for years to come, lie re ceived jllie interviewer most courteously, and in reply to a question said: ‘‘It is Iruo 1 have come to New York to ' establish a monthly magazine. I have como hpro for tho same reason that 1 went to lloston twenty-five yeais ngo. Then boston was the < w best platform in tho country from which to l Hpftnk of education. New York has now be come ihokt hospitable to progressive thoughts and •specially so to movomonts ou behalf of physical training. “I have reason to know tho great and abiding interest, of tho American people in this subject. They.have come to roalizo that tho future of our country pivots upon our .physical vitality, and especially upon the vigor of our women. My new magazine will . boar tho title * Dio Lewis’ Monthly,’ and bo devoted to Sanitary and Social Science. I hoi>e through iU pages to inaugurate a now departure in hygieno.” ‘‘Havoyou not written sovoral books on tho subject?” * Yes, nine volumes, and some of them 11* •Our Wil ls,’ published by tho Harpers, lmvo hQd an enormous circulation, but tho best work of my life I shall givo the world in tho •. new magazine. -Forty years of skirmishing ought to conclude with ten yours of organized warfare.” “ Doctor, wlmt is tho occasion of this new interest in health questions?” “It has como through suffering, which sop mV t ho only road to self knowledge. Tho stomach, heart, kidneys or liver fall into .trouble, happinoss is gone, and then people give attention to their health.” “ Which of these organs is most frequently tho victim of our errors?” asked tho reporter. “Within the last few years diseases of tho .'kidneys have greatly multiplied. When I was engaged in practice, thirty-five and forty years ago, serious disease of the kiduoya was rare; but now distressingly frequent and J fatal.” * r ‘Towhat do you attribute this gront in crease of kidney troubles?” “To the me of stimulating drinks, ndnl- • ternted food and irrogular habits of lire.” “Doctor, have you any confidence iiL the remedy of which wo hoar so much nowadays, , Warner's Safe Cure?” 1 ”“I believe in tho ounce of prevention, rather than in u tonof cuj-o.” ' “but have you noticed the remarkable testimonials of Warner’s rejhfyly?!’ “1 have, and confess thftt they hnvo puz zled and astonished mo. Tho commondations of proprietary medicines usually come from '* 'unktHAvn persons residing in back counties, but I boo in our most ronutablo newspapers the warmest praise of Warner’s Hafo (Jure from Collego Professors, respectable physi cians, aiul other persons of high intelligence and character. To thrust such testimony aside may be professional, but it is unmanly. No physician can forget that valuable addi tions to our Materia ModWVlfrfve sprung from just such sources. I was po irapiessod with this cloud of witnesses that I purchased somo ‘ Pottles of Warner’s baf& Curo at u noighbor- - - Uw .drug store, and analyzed one of them to soeif it contained anything poisonous. Then I took throo of tho prescribed doses at once, nnd found there was nothing injurious in it. • Tdb'not hesitato to say that if 1 found my kidnoys in sorious trouble, I should use this remedy, because of the hopelessness of all ordinary treatment, and beonusu when a hundred intelligent roputablo persons unite in tho statement that a certain remedy has r cured them of ugnno malady. 1 choiso to believe that thoy speak tho truth. ‘but as you may know, my great interest ’ in life lies In prevention. For forty years f have labored in this field. One of tho phase* of my work in New Englnnd was the estab lishment of tho Ladies’ Seminary at Boxing- ton, Mass. My aim was to illustrate tho possibilities in the physical training of girls during their school life. This institution became, before 1 left it, the largest and most successful seminary for young women owned and managed by one person in our country. I sat down to dinuur every day with a family of two hundred persons. The remarkable results of this nnisclo training among girls were given in my paper published in the North American lieview of December, 1882. besides I established tho Normal Institute for Physical Training in boston, and for ton years was its President and Manage. Dr. >\ alter Clmiming, Dr. Thomas Hoskins, Pro fessor, Leonard mid others woro among its touchers, and more than four hundrod per sons took its diploma and wont out into all parts of tho land to tench tho new school of gymnastics. And now the years left to mo I nroposo to devote to the magazine which 1 have como hero to establish. It will ho tho largest periodical ever devoted to this field of literature, and will prosent the hundred and one questions of hygieno with tho simplicity . of u child’s talk. To this end all so-called learning will lie subordinated. The maga zine will be moro or less illustrated, and will strive la roach a high place in the confidence and hearts of tho peoplo. In a few weeks our first number will appear, and we shall fondly hopo for it a hearty welcome.” Tho facts above nanated are imloed most important. It is gratifying to know that tho lifelong experiences of a gentleman who stands without a peer in successfully demon strating the principles of hygiene; whose heart h s always been in sympathy with the fumotid, and whoso brain has ever been ac tive in planning for their relief, are to bo given to the public through the pages of a magazmo. And it is specially significant and proof positive of rare merit that a pro prietary medicine, even with such high stand- mg as Warner s Safe Cure is known to have, should be indorsod and rocommeudod by a man so able, so roputablo and of such National renown os Dr. Dio Lewis. Monster Turtles. Some oi tho newspapers are inclined to make fun of the Gloucester crew that reported a big turtle seen at sea. Sev eral years ago some workmen were making excavations in lower India, when they came on to what was evidently a house; at least such the natives con sidered it. It was carefully unearthed and turned out to bo the shell of an enormous turtle that lived during the tertiary period. It was fourteen feet long and nine feet high, and competent natural is t« expressed the opinion that when alive it must have been twenty- five feet long. It was a land tortoise, and crawled about like our common wood tortoises of to-day, making foot prints as large as those of an elephant. In the Western country known as the Bad Lands hundreds of. fossil turtles have been found, their interiors filled with solid rock, once the Band or muddy lake or sea-bed in which tlio^' lived. An Iowa editor, being asked by a cor respondent ifhogs paid, lias looked over his subscription list aud decided that they do not, Deserted Oil ltowns. But if there is a picture of desolation, says Burdette, it is Ml oil town that has been left: that has gone off by itself and died. Tne dismantled derricks stand about like so many tombstones. The deserted houses, with their shattered windows, look as though the crowd, flying away to now oil fields, had cruelly put out the eyes of the olu town lest it should follow. Tho doors hang in crippled fashion on paralyzed hinges; they liavo forgotten their old hospitality of the “flush times;” there is neither welcome nor rejection in their half-open attitude, but they look ns though they stood ajar to save the ghosts the trouble of hunting for tho keyhole. Tho dis mal croak of tho walking-beam is suc ceeded by a quiet inflnitoly moro dismal. Tho merry song of tho riggor has ceased, and tho voice of the nomadic sluggler mingles no longer with tho defiant shout of tho rustier. The gin-mill has passed away and no longer runs oven on a single shift. The chimneys topple ovor and wear the disheartened look of a hat out of season. Even tho tramps shun the town, and there is a general look of a linen duster in December about the settlement. Usually one or two of tho poorest houses are inhabited by dejected families, who seem to wonder what they are staying there for. I liavo often wondered why tho few peoplo who re main in tho deserted oil town did not move into tho best houses, but thoy never do. Thoy are usually peoplo who are too dolefully poor to follow tho crowd to tho now oil fields, and when thoy stay behind they remain in their own houses. They take tho fences and the shutters and porches and floors from tho property of tlieir absent wealthier neighbors for firewood, but it never seems to occur to them to move into the mansions and burn up their hovels. I don’t know what tiny do for a liviug. I often wonder that they don’t start a saloon. That flourishes whore any other business fails. Aud it requires so little furniture; just a picture of George Washington and a half bushel of sawdust. SruounATiNO.—Acorrespondent writes; “A Now York merchant remarked : ‘I havo been an occasional speculator for oigliteou years, and have kept books-to show the net result of speculation, which the average speculator does not. About to close my business, I had my specula tive accounts balanced, and deducting comuiiHffions to brokers, found that I wns really short, but for $20,000 which I mado lately in a real estate transactidfi,' that represented eighteen yours’ profits.

A Check on tEe~CMkier. ’’ So many book keepers and cashiers are defaulting now-a-days, that the mat ter is attracting attention among busi ness men and others, and many sugges tions are offered. A practical book keep ing writes as follows and his suggestions ape worthy of more than a passing no tice:—“Wherever a man has the hand ling of money let there he placed a check upon him by having his accounts ex amined by another employee, or, better still, by a member of the firm, either every day or every week. Let it be un derstood at the time the engagement is made that this is tho rule of the houBe, and let this rule be carried out with the utmost regularity. It is nonsense to say, as some have done, that this will “hurt a man’s feelings.” My opinion is that an honest man will gladly submit to it, in asmuch as it takes a great responsibil ity off his shoulders, while a rogue will soon be fonnd out, thereby saving his employer, perhnps, considerable loss. The firm I am with is a large and well known one, and I therefore have expe rience, otherise I would not be where I am. When I was engaged the supervis ion I speak of was exercised over me. After a year my directors were kind enough to say that in future this should not be done any more, as they were sat isfied that “their funds were safe in my hands.” I there and then requested them to be kind enough to continue our former system, for the reasons above stated, although I gave them to under stand that I duly appreciated their mark of confidence. At my repeated, urgent i equest wo kept on the even tenor of our * way, and the result is that no doubt— not even the slightest suspicion—exists n the minds of my directors, while I go home in the evening without having to E*JSr“ "’ hether “y directorf do not, perhaps, have some misgivings ■bout me or my cash account. b 1 repeat, the only way to keep things -tiaightinan office is to keepa check ou the casluer, to which no right-minded man wiU object. This can be done in a way which will not be irksome while it prevents fraud.” U
