The VALUE OF HUMAN L1FE.-The pre-.
else monetary value of human life in var
ious parts of the world would be an inter-
esting subject for careful investigation.
In Dahomey we probably begin with one
of the lowest rungs of the lader. A few
beads or II strip of calico there will pur-
chase a well-developed specimen Of hn-
manity. In China any criminal pos
sessed of SIS may procure o substitute
who. having deposited the money in the
hands Of his poor relatives, will cheer
fully undergo the operation Of decapita-
ton. Then, ascending a little higher on
the %allegorical ladder, we come to slave
marts. where often an ELEPHANTS tusk is
worth four women 1t is unpleasant to
come nearer home, and ask what some
phases of so.called civilized life are worth.
A German professor. who rejects Nal.
thesiau doctrines, computes that, taking
the whole world for an average. a won IN
is worth one-eighth of a man. He thinks
that there are at least $50. 900. 900 unmar-
ried women in the world. As a rule. out
of Europe, horses are more valuable than
members of the fair sex. However, Es-
quimau women are scarce. and each one
I2zDfahahly worth two men. In new tet

MONEY ONE HUNDRED YEARS AGO

MONEY ONE HUNDRED YEARS AGO.
One hundred years ago students at
Harvard College paid their tuition with
live stock and provisions. The currency
Of the Pilgrims was the first issue Of
papfa. mpney in this country. During
the 4 Of Queen Anne a paper currency
was established, known as Queen Anne's
wal currency. which DOL became worth
less. In 1855 Virginia issued a paper
currency, previous to which the clergy
were paid in tobacco. In IT'S John Cole
man established a bank in Massachusetts,
with land for capital, and began the issue
Of loans. Other colonies followed, and
the amount of loans by the colonies fn-
ally reached to millions. which the mother
county paid off at reduced rates to saw
the credit OF the colonies. In ITS Con-
gress issued paper money to the mount
Of $500. 900. to be redeemed in coin in
three years. The colonies or States also
issued paper money. and soon the whole
volume of State and National currency
amounted to $12, QUO. 900. This money
was taken without much question ut first,
and those who refusedi it were stigmatized
Al unpatriotic ; but in the following year
it began to decline. and in 1880 it wa
worth almost nothing. A barber-shop in
Philadelphia was plastered all over with
Continental money, aud dogs were tarred.
stuck over with the same shinplasters and
let out to run the streets for the public
amusement. To Robert Morris is due
the salvation of the Revolutionary army.
He lent his private fortune and credit to
the government, and when all his money
was gone and his credit had been liber-
ally used, Washington said he must raise
more money to carry out a war measure.
the perfection of which only waited for
the money, Morris. therefore. issued his
own notes for $l.4OO. 900. Washington

Morris notes were subsequently redeem
cd. In 1882 the Bank of North Amer
lea was established at Philadelphia, with
a capital OF $400. 000. This was the first
bank of the National Government. The
date of the first silver coinage was 1894.
and the first gold coined in America was
in the same year.

Tue ATTACK ON Coz A. K. Nc
CLuRE.-The Philadelphia papers OF
last evening give the following account
of the attack upon Col. A. K. Mcclure,
editor of the Tunes, yesterday: "Whi!e
walking down Chestnut street in the
morning with Ex-Governor Curtin, Col
Mcclure was assaulted by Nat. Mckay,
naval contractor, whose alleged dishon-
est transactions in connection with the
removal of the old navy-yard and pur-
chase of government property were at
tackled in the Times, and who has so far
unsuccessfully prosecuted the Times tor
libel. Mckay struck at Mcclure with
a small whip, but was seized by the lat
ter, when two men who accompanied
Mckay struck Mcclure from behind,
infiicting several severe blows. BY
ISLANDERS at once interfered, and Mckay
and one of his comrades, who gave the
name of Conlan. and is said to be New
York rough, were arrested and held to
BAIL The other man escaped. Suisse
quently, on a motion to increase the
bail, capias was issued by Judge
Mitchell, but the men could not be
found. The affair created great excite
ment in the city. and the Times office
was surrounded by crowd that greet
ed Mcclure whenever he appeared.

LsOscr. I'm apple frees.

At a meeting ct a farmers club :.
member said that wrapping trees with
tarreJ paper from l8 inches to2 feet
high, letting the paper fit the ground
snugly, and making a little mound up
10 the paper, will furnish both 4 tree
borer proof and rabbit proof. In his
opinion, halt Of the young orchard trees
are injured, if not killed, by these two
pests. Care should be taken that the
iorers already in tree are destroyed
before the tarred paper is applied. This
may be done by enarging the opening
of the hole and forcing the shoot of an
apple after them and crushing them.
4 wire NAV he used for this purpose,
but the member preferred the apple
shoot as being elastic This insect de-
posts lis eggs often on the body of a
tree when the bark has been injured.
Washing the body with strong soap
suds was advised as excellent-Far-
ner's Friend.

Encouragement for the Feeble.

Debility, whether it be inherent, or
caused by overtaxcd strength, or protract-
ed illness has most depressing influence
upon the mind, breeding an abject mel
ancholy nearly akin to despair, and ell
forcing the abandonment of cherished
and high hopes. Happily, the enfeebled
system. even in extreme cases, is suscep-
tible of invigoration. 1t is proved by M
controvertible evidence that Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters is an unfailing strength
ener of the weak, and that in addition to
vitalizing the physical organization, it
establishes regularity among those organs
upon whose efficient discharge of the
duties imposed on them by nature, con-
tinued vigor and health depend. Thous-
ands ofinstances night be cited to show
the regenerating influence ofthis health
giving agent in cases of debility, liver
disease, dyspepsia, nervous ailments,
constipation, intermittent fever, urinary
and uterine troubles, govt and rheuma-
tism, and other maladies.

Bone Manure.

The reason why bone manure is so
valuable is THAT the great utility of
bones as manure arises from the large
amount of phosphates which they cor
tain. On all pastures which have long
fed the phosphate of lipe is exhausted.
1t is constantly taken from the earth
in the grass to form the bone, the mus
Gle and the milk Of animals. OF the
earthly matter in bones nearly five
sixths consists of phosphate of lime and
magnesia Nitrogen is also abundant,
and OF course ammonia. A few bushels
of bone-duSt will often quite restore
old, WORKOUT pastures. The ashes of
all grains are very rich in phosphate OF
lime, which goes to prove the impor-
lance OF furnishing this element for
their use. Farmers Friend.
