WALKING IS FASHION
HOW HEAVY NEW YORKERS TRY TO
REDUCE THEIR WEIGHT.
Central Park a Favorite Place For Wraith
anil Beauty to Walk as Well as to Hide.
Good Katured Comments on the Daily
Procession as Ft I*asses By.
Pedestrianism is quite the proper thing
nowadays. Even when the streets are
in a filthy condition, the daily constitu
tional is quite as necessary to the aver
age man as his daily bath or his evening
of recreation. He takes a stroll on the
avenue perhaps to limber up his joints
and meet his friends. Perhaps, if he is
inclined to rotundity, he does it to re
duce his weight.
Of late Central park has been growing
in popularity among the portly class. If
you will take a trip up to the big reser
voir at almost any time of the day, you
may see any number of people of all
ages, conditions and degrees of prosper
ity plodding about the lf-mile track
which surrounds it.
The reservoir is the highest portion of
Manhattan Island. The view from all
sides is picturesque. On the south the
city lies stretched out in a magnificant
panorama as far as the eye can reach. It
is a spot particularly adopted for the
purpose for which it was intended—the
pleasure of the people.
Some of the pedestrians there are sprint
ers, and do their work without regard
to dignity. Others 6hunt around with
all the di uity of a game cock. It is not
an uncommon sight to see a woman
weighing from 200 to 300 pounds puffing
along like a slow going locomotive with
a heavy train attached, her arms swing
ing at her sides like the driving rods of
an engine. She is out for what there is
in it. She cares nothing for the ques
tioning looks of the spectators nor for
their unkind remarks. She has just so
many pounds to remove per the doctor’s
orders, and she is trying to do it.
So regularly do these open air fiends
make their appearance on the track that
the men employed at the gatehouse on
the south side in the capacity of watch
men, gatekeepers and helpers can spot
one half a mile away.
“There comes Aunty So-and-so,” they
comment. “Wliat a gait she has got on
this morning! See that stride! She’s
trying to break the record.”
“And there is Popper So-and-so. He's
•making good time too. W onder if he’ll
overtake her before she reaches the turn?
Whew, but he’s making the gravel fly!
Five pounds off this morning sure,” and
as the reducers of flesh go flying past the
gatehouse the nod familiarly to the men
who happen to be in sight.
“Who is this coming?” asked a reporter
of the men at the gatehouse a few day's
ago as he saw a young woman approach
ing.
“Why, we call her Beauty, one of the
men replied. She was a tall young wom
an, fair, and with the form of a Juno.
She was striding along on the other side
of the lake. As she passed the men she
nodded good morning and strode away,
her head in the air, her shoulders back,
chest thrown forward and with a 3-foot
stride. She wa3 out for oxygen. Her
cheeks glowed with the rosy hue of per
fect health, and her eyes sparkled like
diamonds.
“She lives on Fifth avenue,” contin
ued one of the helpers. “Every morn
ing at 9 o’clock, if the weather is any
way pleasant, she is here walking for
dear life. But ain’t she a ‘beaut?’ And
she’s not stuck up a bit. She has a nod
and a smile for all of the boys, just as
you saw her then. I’ll wager every dol
lar I have that there isn't a man on this
road that can overtake her if she is in
the mood for sprinting. Look at that
stride of hers. She covers three feet
two, I’ll bet,” and taking a tape measure
frow his pocket he measured the marks
of her feet after she had passed.
“I told you so,” he exclaimed, holding
up the tape so it could be seen. “Three
feet two and one-half,” and he grinned
with delight. “Yes, I've measured it be
fore,” he acknowledged, when accused
of it. “You see, I take a great interest
in the girl, because two years ago when
she first began coming here she looked
as if she could not live a month. She
was as pale as a ghost. Her chest was
sunken in, and I thought she was going
into consumption. You would never
think it to see her now, bub. Winter or
summer she seldom misses a day except
perhaps during the extreme heat of the
summer and rainy or wet weather. Her
father is a commission merchant down
town, and very often he accompanies
her in her walks. Everybody likes to
watch her, she is so graceful and strong.”
men came a man or about 50, short
and very obese. He had a very large
head, short gray whiskers and legs that
were no larger than baseball bats.
“Morning,” he said, with a nod of recog
nition. “Fine air—lots of it. Three
pounds off this morning or die. Lots of
people out. Goodby,” and as his spindle
shanks, working at the rate of 100 times
a minute, carried him out of range of
hearing ho was still talking. He was a
Wall street broker. He has been trying
to reduce his flesh for a year, but he is
as fat now as ever.
“But here comes the hummer.”
“Morning, boys, morning. Can’t stop
talk. In hurry. Make circuit 20 min
utes or bust. By by.” And he was out
of hearing.
He was a short man, thin and about 55.
He had a smooth face and was wiry of
limb.
In a few m.uutes a bevy of pretty girls
—seminary girls—came along with their
chaperon, a young woman who looked as
if she had but just graduated herself.
She eyed the men suspiciously as much
as to say: “Don’t you dare flirt with
these girls. They are out under my care,
and I will protect them.”—New York
World.
A City In a Mountain.
The city of Banian, in Bokhara, is cut
in the side of a mountain. There are
12,000 artificial caves, some very large,
and two statues—one SO, the other 20 feet
high—each hewn from a single stone.—

SHE DROPPEL KLH MITTEN.
And She Was An^ry Up- si* the Deaf Old
Man Misumlers. 1 Her.
It was just 0 o'clock, ; : the car win
pc.c . il with people going home.
•She curried some huiiuki., and in her
efforts to handle them and save them
from crushing she dropped her mitt . a.
She Baw it go, but was ] iwerlcss io stay
itB descent, and ii \v.. down in succes
sive stages in atri.,.;;n' r space between
herself, a man wlio looked o er her
bead, ami an individual who was deaf,
“There goes my mitten!”
The deaf man leaned over anil Baid.
“Eh?”
“My mitten—mitten—it fell down.”
“Well, ye can’t git it, mum. Y’ll have
to wait till the car gils to the end oft o
line, so the conductor kin pull up the
floor.”
“I’ll do nothing of the kind. Besides I
ain’t goin to have all these people wallcin
on it for half an hour.”
“Haven’t ye got another one?” said the
deaf man.
“Course I’ve got another one,” and she
wiggled the hand incased in her other
mitten.
The deaf man 6aw the movement, and
knowing that women often carry car fare
inside their hand coverings reached over
and pulled her mitten off for her.
Then she screamed.
The conductor was the only man who
could edge his way to the scene of trou
ble.
“What’s the matter here?”
“Lady dropped her nickel and can’t
pick it up,” said the deaf man.
“Didn’t drop my nickel—dropped my
mitten,” said the lady with the packages.
“Said she had another one,” pursued
the deaf man, “but she lied.”
“You’re an old doorpost,” said the
woman with one mitten.
“Queer how folks go travelin about
town with only one nickel,” said the deaf
man.
“They get along better’n people with
no ears,” said the woman who didn’t
drop her nickel.
“Was that all the money yer husband
give ye?” asked the deaf man in a tone of
sympathy. “Ho must be a regla’r brute.”
‘Tf he was here now, he’d eat you up.”
“I s’pose them’s collars and cuffs she’s
been doin up and is goin to deliver ’em,”
said the deaf man to the passengers.
Then the conductor said, “Fare,
please,” and the woman gave up a nickel
that she had been carrying in her mouth.
“Thought it was in yer mitten.” said
the deaf man.
“You don’t know how to think,” said
the woman.
“Wonder why she didn’t carry ’em
both in her mouth?” said tho deaf man.
“You ought to stuff both your own
mittens in yer mouth,” said the woman.
“Ain’t ye afraid ye’ll swaller yer nick
el that way some time?” asked the deaf
man.
“it 1 do, 1 reckon it won t injure my
hearin,” said the woman.
Then the conductor got down on the
floor and recovered the woman’s mitten,
and she got off at the next crossing won
dering why some people didn’t carry' ear
trumpets.
The deaf man said, by way of enlight
ening the other passengers, “I guess it
was her mitten instead of her nickel that
she dropped.”—Chicago News-Record.
Woman to Woman.
The attitude women assume toward
strange women was amusingly brought
out in a New York court a few days ago.
A female witness in a case where a
young man was accused of slashing a
young woman’s dress while riding in the
elevated was asked by one of the law
yers, “Do you mean to say, madam, that
you saw all those tears or cuts, which
ever you please, in a lady’s skirt and yet
hadn’t the politeness to tell her of it?”
“I do,” said the witness. “I have often
told women when their dress was out of
order in the street, but I always got
snubbed for my pains, and I made up
my mind not to do it any more. If a man
should tell a woman that her dress was
out of order, she would be very apt to
thank him, but she never thanks a wom
an.”—San Francisco Argonaut.
Trees Require Good Soil.
Southern soil seems to possess the nec
essary substances for the growth of all
species of trees and plants natural to
warm climates. Substances that con
tribute to the nutrition of plants will act
as food for trees, and, as wo see the phys
ical properties of the trees themselves,
leaves and other matter have a direct
share in their nutrition. There are some
soils so hard and clayey that the roots of
trees cannot spread, and thus they fail
to reach the substances which they re
quire for food. Hence the tree becomes
stunted in growth and is soon dead, fall
ing to the ground to become, through its
ashes, nutrition for some other frailer
plant which can subsist in such soil.—
Boston Transcript.
A Good Dressing: For Shoes.
When meditating a trip on a rainy day,
it is a wise plan to rub the shoes with a
waterproof mixture, which will make
them soft, pliable and hardy. A very
good recipe for this is an ounce of bees
wax, an ounce of turpentine, a quarter
of an ounce of Burgundy pitch, melted
over a slow fire with a half pint of oil.
Be cautious with the turpentine. This
mixture may be applied often and will
be found really excellent.—New York
World.
Did You Ever?
Did you ever expect a letter from a
dear friend and get instead a cross
grained note of complaint? Or confi
dently expect a check in the morning
mail and get an invoice of bills? Did
you ever rush with beating heart to get
your mail and receive nothing but an
advertising circular?—Boston Common
wealth.
"Shop” Expressions.
The curiosities of talking “shop” were
never better exemplified than in the case
reported by an unloving woman. In a
country trip she occupied in a short
transit the seat beside the driver. “He
told me,” she said, “that he had been
‘bus-ing it' this winter: had 'hack-ed it'
all last summer.”—New York Times.

NOTHING ELSE LIKE IT.
WheD the publishers decided to
issue The Journal twice a week
at the same price of the old week
lies, §1.00 per year, they shuck
just what the public wanted—
something between the old-fash
ioned weekly and the high-priced
daily. The success of The Semi
Weekly Journal has been imme
diate and continued. It has dis
tanced evei'y one of its once-a-week
rivals. It doesn’t take long to
convince people that a good live
paper every Tuesday and Friday
is better than only one a week,
especially when you appeal to their
pocket books, and give it to them
at the same price. Headers will
testify that it is almost as good as
a daily. The markets twice a
week are worth the money. Four
complete novels each year by
“The Duchess,” Miss Braddon,
and other widely known authors,
are worth the dollar. Its legisla
tive news is its strong point just
now. It is wide-awade, spends
money for news, and is always in
the lead. You can see its supe
riority over the old-fashioned
weekly. Everyone who subscribes
now gets a Seaside Library free.
Ains oner won i noia goou al
ways. One of our big offers is
The Semi-Weekly Journal and
Weekly New York Tribune, both
one year for §1.25. Our great
premium, History of the United
States, Stanley’s Book, or Life of

Elderly people remember their spring
bitters with a shudder. The present
generation have much to be thankful
for, not the least of their blessing be
ing such a pleasant and thoroughly
effective spring medicine as Ayer’s
Sarsaparilla. It is the health-restorer
and health maintainer.
For all derangements of the throat
and lungs, Ayer’s Cherry Pectorial io
the speediest and most reliable remedy.
Even in the advanced stages of Con
sumption, this wonderful preparation
affords great relief, checks coughing
and induces sleep.
Learning From Englishmen.
It is true that the English have culti
vated [printing, hurdling and the vari
ous field events somewhat loss success
fully than we, but for all distances above
t-:o quarter mile the English records (to
use oux American standard of compari
son) are the world’s records. This means
that the prevailing interest abroad is less
in the close gymnasium and on the dreary
cinder track than in cross country runs
and paper chases, which lead the athlete
through woods and fields, blow his lungs
full of fresh air and steep his senses in
sunlight. Likewise the Englishman's
yacht is, as it were, his summer home,
while his horses are the companions of
the hunt and his travels. If yacht or
horse wins races for him, so much the
better.
But he draws the line when it comes to
sacrificing tlieir sounder merits for the
passing glory of sweepstakes. Thus sport
with him is pleasanter and less intensely
exciting. It is fruitful in mental relaxa
tion and rest as well as in bodily health.
In short, Americans lack the strength
that comes through moderation and re
pose, through wholesomeness of mind
and body. We have yet to learn that
the work of life is too serious for us to
set our hearts and stake our health on
the pastimes of idle hours; that our years
are too few to be shortened by devoting
workdays and playdays alike to the
wasting passion of achievement.—John
Corbin in Outing.
Living With a Broken Heart.
A remarkable case of survival for a
week with rupture of the heart is re
ported. The man, who was 52 years
old, short and plethoric, was playing
football, when he suddenly fell down in
a sort of faint, but recovered in a few
moments and continued his play. Soon
after the game was over, however, ho
had another and more severe attack, ac
companied by pain in the cardiac re
gion, and a few minutes later he was in
a 6tate of partial collapse, with shallow
breathing, almost imperceptible pulse,
and very severe pain over the heart. He
gradually improved and was able to sit
up, but seven days later lie had another
fainting fit and died.
At the autopsy the heart was found to
be fatty, degenerated and very friable,
and in the wall of the left ventricle was
a break or rupture half an inch in diam
eter. It seemed most probable that the
rupture was at first very minute or par
tial, not allowing the escape of blood in
to the pericardium, and that a week later
some extra exertion caused a completion
or enlargement of the rupture, resulting
in the escape of blood and death.—Lon
don Lancet.
Untimely CriticUm.
Untimely criticism is a barrier, shut
ting out affection from us and spon
taneity. “Don’t wriggle your feet so,
my son,” says the critical father to a
boy vibrant with enthusiasm. The cor
rection could have waited, and the boy,
with dampened ardor, turns away, tell
ing his next story elsewhere, while the
father some day wonders why boys are
sealed books to their elders. “Where
did yon buy that dreadful cravat?” Mary
says to J hn in the midst of his cheerful
salutation, when he is just about to tell
her of a bit of good fortune. “Such sil
ly sentimentality!” says John, with a
shrug of indifference, to Mary at some
new thought springing out of her heart,
dewy in freshness as a newly plucked
rose. And John and Mary each grow
to mourn the fact that the best of the
other sheds its fragrance elsewhere.
There are a hundred other barriers—the
dwelling on material cares, the wanton
disregard of social amenities, the sensi
tiveness to personal peculiarities.—Har
per's Bazar.
Said to Bo Better Than Morphine.
Mention is made of codeine sulphate
as an extremely prompt sedativo in af
fections of the respiratory tract, pos
sessing an advantage over morphine in
that it does not check the secretions, nor
does it lead to a habit, nor has it dis

The officinal alkaloid is rarely used,
the sulphate being preferred for the pur
pose. If administered in water, an in
soluble residue is sometimes found,
which, on examination, proves to be the
alkaloid codeine, found in codeine sul

A Bogus Bear's Haul.
The late Sir Richard Owen, the emi
nent anatomist, often had his skill in
identifying bones tested. On one occa
sion his friend and neighbor, Lord John
Russell, sent him a specimen for this
purpose, and the professor quickly pro
nounced it the thigh bone of a pig. This
explanation of the query was subse
quently offered by Lord John: “Presi
dent Buchanan had sent from America
to the English statesman the present of
‘a choice bear's ham,’ and the family had
breakfasted off it several times with
much enjoyment. Somehow or other,
however, suspicion was aroused, and the
bone was sent to their scientific neigh
bor, with the result stated.”—Cor. Pall
Mall Gazette.
Ancient Forms of Life In Australia.
Australia seems to have been a place
of refuge for many ancient forms of life,
and every now and then some supposed
to have become extinct are found still
existing there. The latest in tins respect
is a discovery by a Mr. Ogilby, a natu
ralist, in certain rivers of New South
Wales of fresh water herrings, identical
in every way to those before not found
later than the latter part of the creta
ceous and early part of the tertiary period.
