The Degradation OF Swearing. I


1t is no mark of gentleman to swear.
The most worthless and vile, the refuse of
mankind, the drunkard and the prostitute
swear, as well as the best dressed and ed
ucated gentlemen. No particular endow-
ments are necessary to give finish in the
art of cursing. The lowest and meanest
of mankind swear with as much tact and
skill as the most refined; and he who
wishes to abase himself to the lowest lev
ell of degradation and shame, should be a
common swearer. Any man has talents
enough to learn to curse God and impre-
cate perdition on himself and fellow men.
Profane swearing never did any one any
good. No man is the richer or wiser or
happier for it. 1t helps no mans educa-
ton or manners. It is disgusting to the
refined; abominable to the good insult
ing to those with whom we associate; de-
grading to the mind; Improbable; and
wantonly to profane His uame, to call His
vengeance down, is perhaps of all offences
the most awful in the sight of God.

The Crop Report.

The monthly report of the Department
OF A Agriculture, which will soon be issued,
contains the following information con-
cerning the crops:
CoRN-The condition of corn, as re-
ported in the August returns, was high
except III the Southern States, and the
reports for September in the Eastern and
Middle States are equally favorable, still
more favorable in the States beyond the
Mississippi and Missouri, and somewhat
less SO in the Ohio Valley. The States
below an average in the corn producing
districts are, Kentucky, SIS per cent Ohio,
SO; Michigan, 80; Indiana, 81; Illinois,
95 Those above the average are, Wis
consin, 100 per cent; Minnesota, los:
Iowa, 113; Missouri, 1903; Kansas, 115 j.;
Nebraska, liz.
WHEAT-The wheat reports are far
less favorable than the returns of the
spring and carly summer, except as far as
relates to the Eastern and Middle States.
The condition of wheat at the time of
harvesting is thus stated: Above the av-
erage, New Hampshire, 1O4; Massachu-
sets, 101; New York, 1902; New Jersey,
ITO; Pennsylvania, 107; Maryland, 102
Michigan, 106. Below the average, Maine,
95; Vermont, SO; Delaware, 81; Virginia,
10; North Carolina, SO; South Carolina,
So; Georgia, So; Alabama, IS; Mississip-
pi, "a; Texas, 81; Arkansas, 70; Tennes-
see, 70; West Virginia, "a; Minnesota,
50; Iowa, go; Kentucky, Is; Missouri,
81; Illinois, 92 Indiana, 81; Ohio, so !;
Wisconsin, "a; Kansas, 50; Nebraska, so !;
California, rs; Oregon, So. The amount
grown in the South is small, but the low
condition there will affect the supply but
little. The depreciation is about 10 per
cent. in the West, which will be partially
offset in Kentucky by the increased area
BARLEY-Reported in condition below
the average, except in few States.
BUCKwHEAT-Less in quantity than
usual.
RYE-Nearly an average crop.
HAY-Greatly reduced in quantity, but
of excellent quality
PoTAToEs-Nearly an average yield.
The sweet potatoe crop is full one.
SUGAR-There will probably be an in
crease of 30 per cent in sugar.

Chewing Gum.

A gentleman in the streets of c.,
Iowa, lately counted, in fifteen minutes,
seventeen ladies chewing gum The habit
prevails extensively especially in the
West. Almost every school girl you
meet is chewing, chewing, chewing
OF course it will not be pretended that
this habit is either as injurious or as
nasty as chewing tobacco, yet it is not al
together innocent
When food is taken, saliva is secreted
to aid in masticating it. When other
substances are cbewed, saliva is, at first.
secreted as for food; but the vital in
stincts soon recognizing the nature of the
substance, ercrete fluid similar to saliva
for the defence of the tissues. This fluid
Thrown out against tobacco, gum, etc. is
really an ercreti0n
The bile occasioned by taking poison
Gus medicines, has, by careful expert
ment and analysis, been found to be quite
different substance from that secreted by
the liver in its healthy action. So the
fluid which the salivary glands produce
during protracted chewing of that which
is not food, is quite different from healthy
saliva. The waste, however, is probably
just as great as if it were healthy saliva
Those who habitually chew gum unduly
exercise the salivary glands, occasioning
IN them either ultimate debility or undue
development in SIZE There is also dan
ger of permanent depreciation and poison
ing of the salivary glands.
This constant chewing also injuries the
teeth. The teeth are no small item in a
lady's beauty; and as they go to such
rapid decay in America, demanding so
early the dentists care, it is surprising
that ambitious ladies should so wantonly
destroy them. Boys often ruin their
teeth by cracking nuts; they do it to get
at the kenlel-they have motive-but
what possible motive can boys, girls or
women have for chewing, chewing, chew,
ing, hour after hour, an insipid lump of
gum?
The habit also diverts attention from
duty or study, and is one of the many IA
miliar modern modes of killing time In
short, it is useless, indecent, unhealthy
practice. Boys and girls, let it alone

How to be Polite.

Do not try too hard to be polite
Never overwhelm your friends by beg
ging them to make themselves at home
or they will soon wish they were there
Show by your actions rather than your
words that you are glad to see them.
Have enough regard for yourself to
treat your greatest enemy with quiet po-
likeness. All petty Sights are merely
meanness, and hurt yourself more than
any one else.
DO net talk about yourself or your
family to the exclusion of other topics.
Whas if you are clever, and little more
so than other people, it may not be that
other people will think so, whatever they
ought to do.
1t may be interesting to you to talk
over your ailments, but very tiresome for
other people to listen to.
Make people think you consider them
clever and agreeable, and they will be
apt to have pleasant impression of your
self
Treat people just as you would like to
have them treat you.
1t is much easier to lose the good opin-
ion of people than to regain it. and when
any one does not care for the good opin-
ion of others, he or she is not worthy of
respect.
Do not excuse your house, furniture, or
the table you set before your guests. 1t
is fair to suppose their visits are to you,
not to your surroundings.
The whole machinery of social inter
course is very delicate and intricate, and
it is our business to keep all the places of
possible friction we'll supplied with the
oil of politeness.

a Series of Surprises.


A Eoung man, his wife, and little
= daughter, residing in St. Louis, had quite
aroundof excitement for one day recently.
While he went to his place of business she
took her child to the park for walk and
while there saw, leaning against statue,
man she took for her husband. but on
going up to him he proved to be an entire

lance, however, and they commenced con-
versation. BIZ r
Meanwhile, a friend of her husband met
him in the street and jestingly remarked
that his wife must find something attract

there. Stung by jealousy the young man
set out to discover Hedrove to the park,
leaped from his carriage and hurried on
through the avenues in search of his dear
ones.

Mr.. Hedges is reported to have alluded

Mrs. Count Bismark is lady on the
