THE American farm laborer gets an average of S'20 per month and fonnd^ while the English farm laborer gets but S8.

PROF. C. A. BRIOOS has been pronounced not guilty of heresy by the New York Presbytery. The prosecution will appeal to a higher ecclesiastical oourt.

"How shall ge deceive the people9" is the great question which will confront the leaders of the Democratic party in the next Congrese. To repeal or not to rep»!iJ the Muivinley law, that's the question.

THE oity of Chicago has a greater mortgage indebtedness on its buildings and town lots than there is on all the firms of Kansas. To be exact, the debt in Chicago is S16,000,600 in excess of ^that of Kanoos. It exceeds that of Iowa by Si1,000,000.

Trot year jnst closed has been perhaps the most prosperous year in the historj of the country. So- tar from being plunged into all the commercial and financial disasters which the opponents of the McKinley law predicted, all branches of business have been in a flourishing condition"* and everybody has had plenty to eat, plenty to wear, and sufficient for otber purposes- Of course much of this prosperity was due to the very abundant harvests which were gathered. Both our exports and our imports were greatly increased, and there was gre iter demand for labor in consequence of the increased demand for product of mills, which demand was in turn due to increased tariff rates on these products. The only calamity that has befallen the country was the political landslide in November.

THE Dry Goods Economist, which is the organ of of the alien importers in flew York and of the textile manufacturers of the United States, is publishing series of articles on "How to Revise the Tariff." It urges revision by the tree admission of wools of all kind, and 111 fiee ad mission of shoddy the last to aid in the adulteration of American woolen goods, which adulteration will compensate its manufacturing clients for the alleged "cheaper prices of clothing" consequent on free wool. But the

Dry Goods Economist has not y»t adV'IBMI the reduction of duty on any wellestablished textile inauniiy of the United States, It would continue to protect the rich manufacturers, but declines to protect the poor farmer," on whoiii the free had much pity to bestow during the campaign. But, in order to meet the reduced revenue caused by re moval duties on wool, shoddy and mnngo, the Economist indorses and ap proves tilia Bentiment of the Democratic newspapers:

An honest revision of the pension list, on the most liberal principles that should determine pension legislation wi!l probably cut down the annual expenditure of the department to $25,000,000 or lees.

The present rate of pension expenditure is in excess of $176,000,000. The Democratic plan, broached by the New York Sun and approved by the Pry Ooods Economist, is to take S150,00, 000 yearly from the survivors of the Umon army, and from the widows and orphans of its dead soldiers, and to divide the amount between textile mai facturers and alien importers.

Tbe Man with a Mouth*

I love the man who knows it all. From east to xvej»t, from north to south Who knows all things, both great and small.

And tells it with hi* tireless month Who holds & listening world in awe Tho whilo be works his iron Jaw Ofttlmes in evening's holy calm.

When twilight softens sight and sound And zephyr hrealhesa perfect psalm. This fellow brings his mouth around With its long gallop that can tiro The eight day clock's impatient ire.

His good, strong mouth! He wields it ttelll He works it Just for all it's worth. Not Samson's* jawboue famed could tell

Such mighty deeds upon the earth. He pulls the throttle open wide And works her hard ou every side. Good Lord, from evils Qerccand dire

Save us each day—from fear and woo. From wreck and flood, from storm and fire. From midden death, from secret foe, rom blighting rain and burning drouth— And from the uiun who plays his mouth. —Robert J. Burdetie.

Baby Until'* Doll,

A doll with ii national reputation is a novelty indeed. and such apparently is the doll bought for Baby Rutli Cleveland at a recent doll sale, doll's fair and children's festival in New York city.

The profits go to tire Day Nursery Fuiid, a worthy charity, and Mr®. Cleveland was te have been present and assist, but finding that impossible she sent orders for a fine doll. It was dressed in pale bine bengaline, with a gimp waist, shoulder capo of drab

THE DOI.L. cloth and a

Gainsborough hat of leghorn braid, trimmed profusely with ostrich tips. It sat on a little bamboo armchair, with its feet sticking our. in the most unconventional manner, as if trying to show its blue silk stockings and bronze slippers. The doll cost thirty-five dollars, and the fair cleared 1.700 for the charity.

The laws ot health are taught in our schools bnt not in a way to be of much practical benefit and are never illustrated by living examples, which in many cases oould easily be done. If some scholar, who had just contracted a cold was brought before the school, so that all could hear the dsy loud cough, and know its significance see the thin white coating on the tongue, and later, as the cold developes, see the profuse watery expectoration and thin watery discharge from the nose, not one of them would ever forget whnt the first symptoms of a cold were. The scholar should then be given Ghtmberlnin's Cough Remedy freely, that all might see that even'a severe cold conld be cured in one or two days, or at least greatly miti gated, when properly treated as soon as the first symptoms npart.
