AN ARGUMENT FOR GOVERNMENT
SAVINGS BANKS.
From the Cincinnati aazettss

The Chicago Savings Bank was, 1t appears,
sort Of family institution. The president, d. d.
Spencer intrustod the Offices TO immediate relA.
tyes, an arrangement that enabled him to steal
and squander without detection. The vice presi.
dent was his father.in-law, the assistant cashier
branch his brother Guild, the cashier, seems to
have been aware Of what was going on, but none
Of the deposltor derived any benefit from his In.
formation.

THoKoueH CIVIL SERVICE REFORM.

From Hhfpers WeekIy'
The President has done we'll in forbidding
the political activity mentioned In his letter He
will do we'll IN enforcing the order vigorously. But
that afouc VIII no more be inform Of the civil
service than John Randoiph's emancipation OF his
siavcs was the abolition Of slavery. To prevent re
moyN except for cause" and to prevent illint
political activity and put the public service upon
business basis, there must be some system some
principle, something more prominent than wcll.
meaning discretion. The limitation Of commits.
sons must bo repealed thcre must be appointment
10 the lowest grade upon proved fitness among all
applicants, and sound system of probation and
promotion. In such measures the interest OF mon
Of ali parties would be engaged and thore would be
beginning Of n system thai would survive an ad-
ininistration. Tho existing abuses are the ineyita-
controlling theory. ~

DON'T put your money In savings bank. unless

Times
The Chicago Tines was doubtless prompted
to offer the foregoing advice by reason Of the
ignominious failure Of the State Savings Insti-
tuition Of Chicago, bank which up In recent
date had been regarded NJ impregnable W. tho
rock Of Gibnlter. Whilst Il Is an undoubted
fact that there are many strong banks In this
country, yetit Is no less true that many of these
concerns with snowy and alluring exterior
are hopelessly insolvent. You cannot cxarciss
too great care in selecting the bank where
and bankers (they are not ovcr-honest or con-
scientious) are suffering acuteiy from the
effects Of the general depression Of business
and shrinkage Of values. Look out for your

THE fact ought to be more generally known
that fine farming lands can be bought In the
State Of Virginia, very near this city, st very
low prices. These lands are now thrown on
the market by reason Of the changes in the
labor system Of that State. Farmers In Penn
sylvania, New York. Ohio, or indeed any Of
the Northern States who wish 10 buy farms for
their children can do better for them In Vir-
ginia than by going West. This lands arc not
20 fertile ~ some Of those In the West, but
this disadvantage Is more than ofisct by tho
fact that the climate Is the finest In the
world. and by the further, fact that they are
near the fne market afforded by Baltimore,
Washington and Richmond. II any Of our
readers know OF Northern friends who arr
hooking for farms, they would do thcm great
service by directing their attention to Eastern
Virginia, which is really one Of the finest re-
Kions on the globe.

I sec, therefore, that the intellect eau
lay before tho will motives, reasons, to
induce it to bear down all natural incli-
nations and act Independently Of them.
And as the intellect itself embraces the
truth ncccssmily, all the times that it is
erident, might be led to conclude that
by cogency of reasoning, by making evi-
dent to the will which "tgood'' Of many
is the "best," it could determine the will
to embrace it. But experience shows me
that the will, having heard the noblest
pleadings of the Intellect, can set them
all aside in favor OF tho most shameful
inclinations. Thus SEQ men-and wo
men-in spite of the awful examples
around tlIcnl, that plead 50 powerfully
against intemperance, give themselves
up to this degrading vlce.
Therefore I SEQ that the will is free.
Besides feol it in every act 1 PEI form. IF
l stay at homo it is because I will it. IF
I go out, walk in the sun or shade just
as prefer. And if any ono endcavors
by threats to forco my will, feel that he
cannotdo it. Whether make up my nrind
to obey him or to suffer all the consequnceI
feel that do make up my mind and thai
do so freely Thus, at the present mo-
ment that the Car is marching 'Eto de-
liver the oppressed Christians from the
tyranny OF the Turks" he gives to the
Catholic Poles of Podlachia tho option of
apostasy or persecution; and some prefer
being logged to death. ell.
So far is the will from. being ruled by
tho intellect, that it can very seriously
Interfere with the intellect in tho invcs-
tignton of truth. It can compel the in
tellect to listen to the reason on only one
side of the question. Thus, in the all
important question of eternal punish
ment, it can force the intellect to dwell
only on those texts of Scripture in which
the mercy OF God is set forth, and not al
low it to sec those in which it is express
ed in the most precise terms tiiat the tiras

WHY ARE WE RIGHT-HANDED :.

Investigations which We're recently
carried through by French physician,
Dr. fleury, of Bordeaux, have adduced
facts showing that our. natural impulse
to use the members on the ri ght side of
the body is clearly traccable to probably
physical causes. DR.. F,cury, after OK
amining all immense number of human
brains, asserts that the left anterior lobe
is little larger than the right one
Again, he shows that, by examining Il
large number of people, there is an I'M
equal supply of blood to tile two sides of
tho body. The brachiOcephalic trunk,
Which only exists on the right of the
arch of the aorta, produces, by Il differ
ence i'll termination, an inequality in tho
waves of red blood which travel from
right to left. Moreover, the diameters Of
the spbclavian arteries on each side are
different, that on the left being noticiably
larger. The left lobe Of the brain, thcre-
fore, being more richly hematoscd than
the right, becomes stronger; and as, by
the intersection of tho nervous fiber, it
commands the right side Of the body, it
readily controlled. This furnishes one
reason for the natural preference for the
right hand, and another is found in the
increased supply of blood from the sub
clavian artery. The augmentation Of
blood we have already seen suggested;
but the reason for it is here ascribed to
the relative size of the artery, and not to
any drcctncss of path from the heart.
Dr.. Flcury has carried his Investigations
through the whole series Of namnalia
and hc finds that the right handed pecu
liaritics exist in all that have arteries
arranged similar to those of man. At
the same time such animals, notably the
chimpanzeo, the seals and the beavers,
are the most adroit and gent.-The

A DANGEROUS WIFE TO JOKE
WITH,

The Fort Worth (Tex.) Democrat
says "Marshal Courtright, Of this
town, t ought Of joking his wife.
~3rriving at homo at a late honr he
entered the front gate, carefully
closing it. Cautiously croping
his way thiter, what was his sur
prise to see the right hand of
his wife lying On the sill Of the
window. On her fingers she had
two gold rings, one of which he pro-
ceeded to take off 1t being rather
loose, he experienced bat little
trouble, and succeeded in the oper~
ration without waking her up.
The remaining ring was 9 much
tighter fit, and. in this effort to o1~
tricate it, his wife awoke, finding
her hand grasped from without by
some one whom she at once COM
cluded was rCbber- Quickly
pulling her haLd away, she was
about to scream, but, thinking Of a
convenient six shooter under her
pillow, she again placed her Jewell
Ell hand on the sill, which was
grasped by the supposed burglar,
and with tho other she quietly
reached for the pistol, and. rising
suddenly, brought it to bear on her
husband but for his presence Of
mind in quickly calling her she
would have shot him dead. Mrs.
Courtright displayed great pres
| eoce of mind, fortitGde ard
courage. and the Marshal shoplo
be proud of possessing wife SO
fearless and brave. His narrow
escape has completely curcd him OF
any further desire to play the role
OF midnight robbcr."
