BORROWED BRIGHTNESS,

Do Bor hit the oyster when he is down. Thus lovers are few bat not very far between. Nip and tuck—a cocktail and a ham sandwich. Tm telephone girl has a good many close calls. Accidbsts will happen—but pot when you have some insure ce. Thk gas meter complains that while It always registers it can’t vote. All pavements are more or leas faulty, but some are not asphalty’s others. Titlbb of nobility are as old as the human race. Adam was the first bare ’un. ' Stbjlborlt enough, the woman who h. well preserved is frequently not very sweet. Thbr* -is a report that the coffee supply Is running out. Are there grounds for this? Sclphpb and brimstone are on the free list So is salvation. Now take your choice. Tm English young lady is inclined to call her bean a bear because he is so a vful hugly.

SCIENTIFIC HINTS.

Turns: are nearly 8,000 electric street cars in the United States. An electric storage battery ear has been invented for street railways in crowded cities. A diet of fresh, sweet buttermilk has been found favorable and even effectual in the cure of Bright’s disease. It is claimed that somebody at Vichy, France, has discovered a method of rendering tobacco smoke harmless to mouth, heart and nerves. It has occurred to a French scientist that the domestic cats in the world communicate 30 per cent, of the ordinary contagious diseases from house to house. Manipuultobs appear to have made rapid advance in the manufacture of ■mokeless powder. Fires have been re--vated lor nan an hoar without the petition of the shoot! or being discovered.

RENSSELAER JASPEB COUNTY. INDIANA FRIDAY DECEMBER 26. 1890.

ALL SORTS,

•‘A FIRM ADHERENCE TO CORRECT PRINCIPLES.”

GOOD MANNERS.

Mae t» Be Put Ou and Off UMe OMtkp flay* Ambtr. Good manners are not put on and off like varying fashions; they are the essential, everyday clothing of the soul, and should be liable to no fluctuations of season, time or pi ace. There are oertain things that show 111-breedlng, and always will, until the bugle call of Gabriel sounds the reveille of the resurrection. The girl or woman who talks and laughs noisily in public places, drops the terminal of words ending in “tag," substitutes an “r“ for the final “w" In “fellow, ”. and makes use of that dreadful word “mash,” although she obeyed the standard book of etiquette to the letter, could never be mistaken for a 1 lady. The boy or mam wbo slouches in i his gait, chews and expectorates tfc pub- | Me places, ogles women on the street, ’ swears without cause, retails smutty 1 Jokes,' calls his father the “old man.* and makes fun of his mother’s religion, though he wears broadcloth and ffi>rtys I himself with the choicest perfumery, ! will never pass muster in the ranks of i gentlemen. True ladyhood is as discernible as the plumage of a bird or the fragrance of a flower. All the Jackdaws in the world might assert that they were orioles or cardinal birds; their feathers, to say nothing of their croak, would give them away every hour. Gentle, manners, willing service, fearless independence for the right, brave challenge es shams and hypocrisy, a low yoloe, I. quiet drees, an absolute refusal to min in the laugh that causes the discomfnptre of a fellow creature, make up the true code of good manners the world ovffir.

SOMETHING ABOUT BRAINS.

Hern* Sant* American Monkey* Have Larger One* than Man. For a long time it was supposed that the relative weight of the brain, ae compared with" the body, was greater in man than in any of the lower animals; hut, alas for poor human nature! it is now known that some of the smaller South American monkeys have, proportionally, a larger share of brain than onr noble selves. On the other hand, however, man Carries (absolutely) more weight in his cranium than any other breathing creature, except the elephant and the whale. As a rule, the human brain increases in specific gravity np to the twentieth or twenty-first year, and from the “age of discretion* till the fortieth year usually remains in statu quo. After forty, the organ in most cases begins to wilt. It continue* to decrease in volume more rapidly ae we grow older, and In these who are unhappy enough to reach tljje seventh stage of “second childishness and’mere oblivion" there is nothing of it left worth mentioning. As a proof that the weight of the encephalic mass determines to ft consfoerable extent the amount of intellectual power, it may be stated that when the former is less than thirty-two ounces—-forty-nine ounces for the male and fortyfour for the female brain are’the average—idiocy or partial imbecility invariably accompanies the defect The heaviest brain on record is that of Cuvier, the great naturalist, which weighed sixty-four ounces.

The Discomforts of Wealth.

Money in itself is of very little account, says a leading Boston merchant I wouldn’t give 5 cents a bushel foi it; it don’t bring happiness; I am happy, but ft is npt because I have money, but in spite of it. My happiest days were when I had a small family and a salary just big enough to support that family. Then I was free from this care, this heavy responsibility, and I didn’t feel as though I had to hustle every day I lived in order to keep in the procession. Why not ease up now 9 that I am in comfortable circumstances? Ah, how little you fellows know of the shoals and quicksands of trade! If ypu let up lp this race in the least you are surely lost. It is but a single step from a thriving, successful business to the bankruptcy court. You can't let up; if you are in it, you've got to pull for all you are worth.

Cables Around Africa.

The largest owner of submarine cables is the Eastern Telegraph Company, whose system covers the ground from England to India, and comprises 21,860 miles of cable. The eastern extension, which exploits the far East, has 12,258 miles more. Early in 1389 the system of West African cables, which started from Cadh only six years ago, was oompleted to Cape Town, so that the Dark Continent is now completely encircled by submarine telegraph, touching at numerous points along the coast. More than 17,00 J miles of cable have been required to do this, and several companies, with mors or less aid from the British, French, Spanish and Portuguese governments, have participated in carrying oat the work.

A Korean Wall.

The Koreans have a peculiar way of building a wall by erecting two parallel partitions, between which they pour plaster or mud, and then removing the partitions when the material solidifies. When I was in Seoul an examination of students occurred, and the subject then chosen was a text from one of the classic authors to the effect that as the boards serve to give shape to the mortar, so do honest and upright statesmen mold the fabric of the nation. The students were required to write a poem in blank verse on the subject.

The Woman of the Future.

The coming woman will appreciate the vast difference between modesty and prudery. She will not allow her daughter to learn lessons which must be of vital Importance to her from any but the maternal lips. She will not be deluded by the fallacy that ignorance and lnnocenoe are synonymous terms. She will teach her children that there Is evil in the world, and that it is to be shunned and avoided, and that in order to escape the pitfalls •et for the unwary they, her children, must know what and wham tin- - •arfiee Kannel’s Holiday Display of Fine Watches and Jewelry.

THE McKINLEY MILLENNIUM.

Well, the McKinley millsninm is at hand. The tariff haa been "revised by it* friends,” and it wouldn't know itself from a Chinas* wall. Everybody must pay more for everything, so everybody is going to be better off. The farmer must pay more for tht necessities of life; so, of course he Is going to pay his heads more or they, also, have to pay more for too necessities of life. The artisan, th* shopkeeper, the meehanio, must all pay more for what they boy. Of oonrfe they will restore the natural balance of things by paying their employees batter. It is perfectly simple, isn't it?—as simple as anytning in * Alice in W ondarland. ' It is so Simple that e plain oitizen is driven to wonder why, if the MoKinley theory is comet, and nigh prioes and prosperity mast necessarily walk hand in hand, t's epublie n majority in oongresa did not bring about the glorious result that thsv bate achieved. by the far simpler means of a law decreeing that a dollar shall hereafter be oelled an eagle, and a dime a doll ar. and a cent a dime. It wo’a really have been a much more popular measure. Think how grateful a-dOllar-a day workingman would feel if be oonld teal ze that by grace of the republican party, he walked home every payday with sixty dollars in his pooket, instead of tbs six he got before! Of coarse, he would not feel so grateful when he o ime to the further realization of the faots that his two dollars for rent mnst thereafter be twenty; and that chuck steak was sixty cents a pound, instead of s x; and that a seventy-five cent shirt "as #7.60 under the new system.— B t the these little drawbacks are inseparable | from th* McKinley idea. The old scheme of lifting vonrself np by yonr boot strape works just the same way in finance that it works in any other application.

Artificial voices will remain artificial < alues so long as a pint is a pound, th* world around. Congress may soy to the manufacturer of a certain artioie: "Here, you may charge a dollar more for yonr product th in you now oharge; and we see th»t no foreign manufacturer undersells you.” But congress only raises the price of the article Congress oannot increase its value a dollar’s worth to the man who has to buy it. He is out of pooket by the transaction when he buys tbs article at the new price—and be is out of pooket just one dollar. Yon see, it is tb« old bootstrap theory, bo far as national prosperity is involved. Congress has not add. ed a dollar to the common stook. It has mersly shifted a dollar from one mag's pooket to another's, Of coarse, th* men with the empty pocket is less prosperous. Andrew Carnegie is richer; Plain John Smith is poorer. Great is 'McKinley 1 i Bnt, the manufacturer being the rioher by h dollar; perhaps he will divide that dollar with his employes? Perhaps he w|ll, But congress, singularly enough, has omitted to pass a law instructing him to do so. Until that law is passed, it is unlikely that the employer will go back on the prinoiple that has gnided his oourss for a lifetime, and bay his labor at any ighsr rate than the market rate. Perhaps, too, *he manufacturer bring a dollars worth richer, he will buy more bread, and put up prioes in the wheat market, and so benefit the farmer- if th* farmer is ev' r able to g*t within six months pf the rulipg prlpoff Pf tbp wfcp*t market. Pf* haps be will. But we are of the optnion that he has all the bread— andjallth# cake —that he wants, already.—Puok.
