WALKING FOR HEALTH. An Kxi t-ri'i'** Which is 11 Nerve I ouic anil Appetiser Until in One. Bouton Globe. Few people who have not tried the ex periment know how much health there is in walking. It is a nerve tonie. an appe tiser and general system invigorator all in one. When the weather is too fickle to discard winter wraps, and when occa sional warm half-hours suggest seer sucker's and white hats, a “dead-and alive feeling is apt to result, which may not be a deceased; but which is very akin to illness. “Spring bitters and old fash ioned “sulphur and molasses' are time honored remedies, but the best cure of all is excertise, taken regularly and in doses sufficient to effect a cure, lo a majority of men engaged in act i ve business walking fa the handiest exercises procurable. Ihe man who walks to and from his office or store not only gets up an appetite and a circulation, but he wards off congestion and pneumonia, and if he is of an observ ing turn of mind he also sees many inci dents and traits of character whieh will both amuse and instruct him. Writing about the benefit to be gained from walking, an eminent London phy sician says: “Until I took tip walking to and from my office I was a hollow-chested, dyspeptic man, weighing about 125 pounds, very nervous and very dissatis fied with myself and the world in general. As soon as I begun to walk regularly a change for the better was noticed. I now weigh 160 pounds, l sleep well and have a perfect digestion, all of whieh I credit to pedestrianism. These were the benefits 1 sdught, but they were not all I gained. I am an old resident of London, and nat urally I know a great many of its citizens by sight. I soon discovered that some of the successful men 1 knew were regu lar pedestrians. 1 also had observed that the men who had themselves won great success were the fastest walkers, passing by their fellow-pedestrians in their walks to this city. I now lay it down as an axiom that the man who outstrips his competitors in walking on the streets will also win in whatever bus iness he undertakes." Deal Gently With Cranks. What would we do were it not for the cranks? asks Robert -I. Burdette. How slow the tired old world would move, did not the cranks keep it rousing along! (Jo in mbus was a crank on the subject of American discovery and circumnaviga tion, and at last met the fate of most cranks, was thrown into prison, and died in poverty and disgrace. Greatly vener ated now! Oh. yes, Teleniachus, we usually esteem a craqjt most profoundly alter we starve him to death. Harvey was a crank on the subject of the circula tion of the blood: Galileo was an astrt nominal crank; Fulton was a crank on the subject of steam navigation; Morse was a telegraph crank. Ail the old abo ] lonists were (‘rank-; tln Pilgrim Fath ers were cranks: John Bun van was a crank; and any man who doesn't' think a- you do, my son, is a crank. And, bv and-byo. the crank you despise will have his name in every man's mouth, and a half-completed monument to his memory crumbling; down in a dozen cities, while nobody outside of your native village will know that you ever lived. Deal gently with the crank, my boy. Of course some cranks are crankier than Others, but do you be very slow to sneer at a man because lie knows only ope thing, and you can t understand him. You thank heaven you are not a crank? Don't do that, my son. May be yon couldn't be a crank it you warn'd. Hefiven is not very particular when it wants a weathorvane; almost any man will do tor that. But when it wants a crank, my boy, it looks very carefully for the best man in the community*. Before you thank heaven that you are mt a crank examine yourself carefully and set- what what is the great deficiency Mia- debars you from such an election. A S;ul Mood. * Tin 1 following extract is r, ■ ,1 Mie last issue of the Arizona Kicker: Wednesday evening, as we put on our Mother Hubbard and sat down by the open window to get a breath of air be fore retiring, a sadness sink Ion!y stole over ns ami in a few minutes we lound tears in our dyes. The query cairn- to us over and over again: 'ls life wort a Mie living?' and as we thought (If the old homestead —the days of boyhood—-tlic'm any graves —the changes of thirty years—the foun tains of the deep were broken up and we wept-. Such moods do a man good. They bring him nearer heaven's gate. We don't know whether they come from a disordered liver or the near p: -ence of a guardian angel, but we always feel a heap fetter afterwards. We have no greed. We feel charity for all. And as the bright beams >f the harvest moon steal into our office window and throw a flood of silver light upon the dead ads on the imposing -t me—as the south wind conies sighing wound the corner of Jackass Hill and whispers to us the story of household grave-—as the whip-poor-will wakes from his sweet sleep im the rear of Stevens' disreputable dance house to call to us to press on ward and upward and be not discouraged, we take down the office towel, wipe the falling tears away, and seek our couch with the to secure a pass from here to Om-aha and return or make it so hot for the railroads that tin v will ha ve to keep everv tie wet all the year 'round. How French Fashion* Are Made. rail Mail Gazette. Then is a little item from the world of fashion which will no doubt please those or our lady readers who would gladly hail a fashion by tile adoption of w hich their glovers' bill might be shortened. A charming French duchess, so goes the story, had recently promise and to be pres ent at flic festivity for Some benevolent purposes at the Trouville casino. Being rather behind time the lady put her gloves on while driving and never no ticed till she stood in the full blaze of the casino drawing room that to her black and white silk costume she had put on I one white and one black glove. It ap j pears that her maid had laid two pairs of gloves ready for her mistress to choose from, and that the duchess in her hurry had taken one of each pair. The mischief, however, could not be undone, ! and the gratifying result was that at the j next fashionable assembly till the ladies i at Trouville wore a glove of a different ; color on each hand —a custom which has become so general that at present all the ladies at Trouville have adopted it. Where n Title Don’t Fit. The Talladega Reporter speaks of a i dancing school master as of a “Profes sor-." The Birmingham News in reply ! says: We hardly think it just to gray haired, toiling students of science or theology, who have devoted their lives to the elevation of the moral and intel lectual worth of the race, that their pecu liar title or designation should be rudely used. A knock kneed, bandy shanked, bow backed, beetle browed fiddler, who never heard of Bethoven, Lisrz or Pag anini, and can only rattle up the boys when mean whisky. distorts every sense j destroying the capacity to discover the difference between a donkey and the vil lage brass band —such a person is denomi nated bv one of our eotemporaries a “Professor.” We don’t think this hon ored and ancient prefix to names of men distinguised for learning and personal virtues which tlie world reveres and hon ors, should be applied by decent people to fiddlers or barbers or dancing mas ters, or to traveling quacks or to show men. Importance of Owning Land. Chicago Herald. There is something worth thinking about in the remarks of a Buffalonian returned from California: “Americans native born have no idea of the impor tance of owning land. They have let foreigners come here and buy hundreds of thousands of acres of land, and just because it was cheap the American citi zen wouldn't have it. The result is that when the values rise, as in many oases out West, the foreigner was the one to profit by it. In San Francisco you will find a great many very wealthy China men who own valuable blocks of stoves and fiats, and who are powerful compe titors of the Amercan merchants. The rich Chinamen can knock out the rich American when it comes to bu\ing goods in China for export to this couiwry, and so it goes. Every young native born American, of whatever parentage, should acquire at least some real property if he expects to keep up with the ‘band wagon’ in the future.
