checking and depositing, there was moth

supply, with money easy and plentiful in
banking. Collections are easy, with
good deposits. The banks discount
all unexceptionable paper offering at 10

in demand at goa y cent. q month for

Local and foreign securities continue

90 That while the Republican party dis
claims any sympathy with indiscriminate war
upon associated capital, with Il blind diSre-
gard of its rights, it is entirely independent Of
all corporate power; it is opposed to all
schemes in state, county and city, whereby,
under the pretense of providing gas and water
10 communities, or irrigation tOf farming, n
few men seek to enrich themselves by impoS-
ing heavy burdens upon the people; it repels
ali attempts Of corporations to furce into office,
through Republican conventions, men who
will guard their interests rather than those of
the public, and expects to be judged by its acts
and the character of its candidates, rather
than by the false accusations of its enemies,
who, after having had the executive power of
the state for tho past eight years, divided
equally between them, can present no better
claim for the public confidence than loud and
empty professions of horror at alleged corrup-
tons and prohigocy in public affairs, which
they themselves have managed and controlled
RESOLVED, That we earnestly invite the CO.
operation of tho great farming interest oftho
state IN the reduction OF the cost of trans
portatlon, the reduction and equalization of
taxes and the inauguration Of a plan for
irrigation, by representatives of their own So
lection in the Legislature.
RESOLVED, That confident Of the substantial
agreement ON National and State questions of
all who sustained the nation during tho great
civil war; rogretting the alterations among
ltenubicans which have been too apparent
during tho past few years; DESTROYS OF making
all becoming concessions to secure harmony,
we cordially invite all who are opposed to the
restoration of the Democratic party to power,
to forget The striies of faction, to disregard the
counselS of those who seek to continue un-
seemly and unnecessary divisions, and keeping
in view tho overwhelming Importance of the
approaching Presidential election, aid in re-
uniting the Republican party of the State, and
securing victory for the cause of Republican,
ism and real reform.

OUR NEIGuBoR.- OF the church
societies has long been wrestling with the
question, =" Who is thy neighbour" " A
portion Of the members incline to tho be-
lief that, in the Scriptural injunction,.
Love thy neighbor," all mankind is
meant others contend that they arc only
our neghbors who are friendly to us /;
while yet Others Of illberal and contract
ed views, maintain that one is to have no
neighbors outside the pale OF ones own
church. Let them settle it rs they may,
II neighbor will bs n neighbor still. We
have one of the right royal sort in our
minds eye. He keeps his chickens up
when we mako garden he lends US good
books and borrows ours returns what he
borrows-and never asks for those he
loans comes over and chats without tell
ing us his troubles and grievances or try
ing to learn ours gives no advice and
asks for none cares not whether we have
family prayers or domestic brolls; if he

takes no pains to mark the points Of diff
ference on general matters he expresses
his views boldly and does not think US
blasted fool il we do not coincide with
them; he calls on US when we are sick,
and doesn't tell US Of the dark, dismal
holes in the ground or tell Of the number
Of persons he has known, who exhibited
the same syptoms as ours and finally died
after terrible and protracted illness
when we die, he will attend the funeral
arrangements, and see that no second
hand collins are palmed of on us, and
tenderly support our apparently grief
stricken widow when the falling clods
send back to her ears the rattling notes Of
freedom finally he will assist her to got
another and better husband. Heaven
bless our neighbor There are fow like
him. More's the pity.

had served in the capacity OF target.
The predatory fowl had invaded the pre-
cincts OF flower bed, and was industri-
ously scratching for tho nutritious seed or
early worm, blissfulIy unconscious Of inn

upon the scene with a broom. This she
drops, and picks up a rocky fragment OF
the Slurian age and then makes her first
mistake they all do it-Of seizing tbs
projectile with the wrong hand. Then,
with malice aforethought, she makes a
further blunder of swinging her arm per-
pendicularly instead OF horizontally, and
thereupon the stone flies into the air, do

FIRE ANTS. The worst insect pest Of
tropical America is the terrible freant
(mVr1hica S(evtSsima) whose sting is like
the puncture Of red hot needle. 1t IS
found only on sandy soils in open places,
and seems to thrive most near houses and
in weedy villages. Towns are sometimes
deserted on account Of this little torment
or. 1t is small species, OF - shining red
color, not greatly differing from the com
mon singing red ant Of our own country,
except that the pain and irritation caused
by its sting is much greater Where it
abounds, the whole soil is undermined by
it the ground is perforated with the en-
frances to their subterranean galleries,
and little sandy dome occurs here and
there where the insects bring their young
to receive warmth near the surface
Homes are oyerrun with them they dis
pute every fragment OF food with the in
habitants, and destroy cl.thiug for the
sake Of the starch. All eatabes have To
be suspended from the rafters, in baskets
and tie cords well soaked with copaiba
balsam, which is the only means known
to prevent them from climbing The legs
Of tables, chairs and stools, and the cords
Of hammocks have TO be smeared IN the
same waY.-I0palar Sctsncs MonihIy.

ABOUT THE HAIR.

Men become bald Why? Because
they wear close hats and caps. Women
are never bald. Sometimes from long.
continued headache, heat in the scalp,
bad hair dressing and other causes women
may have oare spots here and there; but
with all these causes combined, You new
er see a woman with a bare, shiny, bald
head. And you mover see man lose n
hair below whore the hat touches the
skull. 1t will take it off rs close as you
can shave it down to exactly that line, but
never hair below, not even if he has
been bald fifty years. The common stiff
black hat, as impervious as sheet iron,
retains tho heat and perspiration. The
little hair glands, which bear the same
relation to the hair that the seed wheat
does to the plant above ground, become
weak from the presence of moisture and
heat, and finally become too weak to sus-
tain the hair. 1t falls out, and badness
exists. A fur cap we have known to
produce badness in n single Winter. A
man with good head of hair needs but
very little protection whore the hair
grows. Women who live much within
doors and are therefore susceptible to the
cold, oil their hair and plaster it down
/ hard and fiat on their skulls, SO as to de-
stroy nine-tenths Of its power rs a non
conductor, nave wotn for years postage
/ stamps of bonnets, stuck on the back OF
their skulls, and then going out Of furnace
heated parors, have ridden for hours in u
very cold temperature, without taking
cold and without complaint.
/ Man, with his greater vigor and out
door life, with his hair not plastered down
but thrown up loose and light, could no
doubt go to the North Pole as far rs that
part Of his person is concerned, without
any covering. Yet we men wear i'm.
mensely thick fur caps and do not dare tC
step out into the chilly atmosphere for 4
weak, silly and really Il serious error
The Creator knew what he was about
when he covered a mans head with hair
1t has a very important function in pro
tecting the brain. Badness il n serious
misfortune. 1t will never occur in Il man
who will wear a common black high silk
hat with five hundred holes in the top, So
that there shall be more hole than hat.
This costs nothing; the halter will do it
for you when you purchase the hat. II
the nap be combad back tho wrong way,
no one will notice the popularity. The
hat will wear quite as long hatter'
say longer because it is dry inside, in
stead of moist. In brief, there is not Il
single objection to it, whilo it will surely
prevent badness and keep the top Of tho
head cool and prevent much heodoche.
