Improved Photographs !

A good photograph is equivalent to an examlna-
tion into ones conscience 1t places under the eye
more than one secret foible, that are 10th to
knowledge. That man of fifty, or sixty II you
choose, il he be sincere, does not murmur when
looking at his photograph, "Gracious heaven ! how
old | ami" "HO,o all these acriaktes mine ~ "What,
this sad, worn, furruwed face belong to me ?" One
is supplied and this is increased in very disagree
able manner when showing this picture to some
friends. One hears them exclaim ooh, how per-
feet 1t is you. Now you have portrait that looks
just like you" Thank you. Although we may
believe ourselves to be sensible and philosophical,
and despite all our endeavors to pluck from
hearts all It's illusions of vanity, yet we always have
nS lde of us portrait of ourselves much finer than
the reality. The inner man is always young. Do
we come across an interesting book and feel the
same enthusiasm AS at twenty? Does a touching
story bring tears to our eyes? Does beautiful
face charm us it did ut twenty Then we believe
that we are only twenty. l am sure that when the
old men of Troy standing up before Helen, crieu
out, "How beautiful she is" they forgot their age
they believed themselves to be young BE advised

These are the average Of prices rul-
ing in the home markets of each
county. The home prices q reported
TO the department, cover wide range.
Thus, in Pope and Pulaski counties,
Ill, the price returned 10 20 cents per
.bushel, while in Mason and LaSalle
it il but % cents. Of course . large
share of the crop 10 consumed ct home
and doubtless an examination would
show, that the larger the home demand
the larger the price. In other words.
farmers who feed their corn to hogs
and. cattle find, by experience, that
they secure larger returnse than BY
selling it at the foreign market pricees
In this way they circumvent the free
traders who insist that the price Of
the surplus which goes to Europe Cd
.tablishes the price of the whole crop.
The statistics Of the Department Of
Agriculture constitute an argunent in
favor of the beneficial effect Of home
industry upon prices, for they show
that in the whole range ef territory
from Ohio to Nebraska prices are
lowest where manufactures arc least
developed. It follows that when there
is no home demand for corn the far.
mers should create one BY Seeding il
stohogs and cattle. foT h fss,ss 81

It is proposed in a bill now be-
fore Congress to remove one of the
minor annoyances connected with
the transmission of transientsprint
ed matter in the mails The inn
pulse is always strong, Il when a
person is sending q paper or
magazine to q friend, to place
his or her name or initials on the
document SO dispatched; but this
has been held to be q sort of pee
cadillo-an infringement upon the
postal laws, though it has seldom
occurred that o postmaster has
been found hliputian enough TO
enforce it This law subjects any
paper or magazine SO written hpon
to letter postage-wfich makes
such mail matter very costly to the
receiver. But the bill now before
the House provides that it shall be
lawful for any person sending a
paper or magazine in the mails to
write his name or initials, or a
brief form OF, presentation, upon it
without adding anything to its
postage as printed matter. This is
a very sensible proposition, and we
trust it may find favor with both
Houses and become law. s s7s.
