The piblic houses explain a great
many of the miseries of the miserable lo
cality. There may be some teetotalers,
but there are not many, and there are
almost m few drinkers who are always
moderate in their libations. The curse
of bitter beer, raw Scotch whisky and
"tuppenny" giu rests h 'avy on the
place. Public opinion is no weapon
against it, for public opinion openly fa
vors drinking whenever one lias the nec
essary money and does not regard actual
drunkenness as a disgrace worth men
tioning. Women drink at tho bars as uncon
cernedly as men do, , and barmaids serve
them. The barroom is the gossip -plav
and babr s and small childrt n are carried
to it and kept in it by careful mothers,
who gather there for the day's necessary
talk. Infants sometimes cry and at such
times are permitted a sip from the ma
ternal glass, quite as other children are
bribed with chocolate drops. Thus blear
eyes and drink reddened faces often have
early beginnings. The children on the
streets are dirty, ragged and vociferous
ly happy over small things. Adults are
not genuinely happy. There is no reason
why they should be. They derive much
spasmodio merriment from the public

common everywhere, especially on tho
streets. During one noon recess I saw
three fights develop among the two dozen
employees of a box factory. Nor are the
combatants always men or boys. Cen

At What Age la Man StrongeHt?
The muscles, in common with all the
organs of the body, have their stages cl
development and decline; our physical
strength increases up to a certain age
and then decreases. Tests of the strength
of several thousands of people have been
made by means of a dynamometer
(strength measurer) and the following
are given as the average figures for the
white race :
The "lifting power" of a youth of 17
years is 280 pounds; in his twentieth
year this increases to 820 liounds, and
in the thirtieth and thirty-first years it
reaches its height, 35G Tiounds. At the
end of tho thirty-first year the strength
begins to deeliue, very slowly at first.
By tho fortieth year it has decreased
eight pounds, and this diminution con
tinues at a slightly increasing rate until
tho fiftieth year is reached, when the
figure is 830 pounds.
After this period the strength fails
more and more rapidly until the weak
ness of old age is reached It is not pos
sible to give statistics of the decline of
strength after the fiftieth year, as it va
nes to a large extent in different indi
viduals. Str:uiil Magazine.
