Production and Consumption.

Notwithstanding all the complaints
about the depression of industry and the
stagnAtion OF business 10 this country. il ia
tact that We are producing and consuming
greater quantity of the necessaries and
comforts OF life than we did last year or the
year before, or. the year before that: indeed.
we are steadily increasing year by year both
our production and consumption of things
that we really need. 1t is we'll to under
stand the facts about this question. There
was period Just after the war when all
the energies OF the country were taxed to
their utmost capacity to produce things
that We did not really need-rairoads
running through sparsely settled regions
that could not furnish. business enough to
support them; heaps of iron stacked up
round furnaces for future consumption;
cotton and woollen goods manufactured to
an extent far exceeding the country's
capacity to consume them; and articles of
luxury bought by thousands who could
not afford them, but were tempted to buy
them because they could buy them on
credit Buying unneeded 1uxuries and
conveniences merely because one can get
them on credit makes a certain kind OF
business and produces deusive appear
OF prosperity; but the business is one not
to be encouraged, and the apparent pros
perityis hollow and treacherous. Specula.
ton, that is the buying and selling of things
that are not consumed but are bought and
held out Of the market for an advance in
prices, Is one thing: healthfui
business, that is, the buying of articles that
people can afford and are able to turn to
good account, is another The receipts of
internal revenue for the four months of
July, August, September aud October of
the present year are 100000 greater than
the receipts Tor the corresponding four
months of last year "a proof that the pro-
duction of excised articles is steadily in
creasing, and it may be asserted that the
people are buying and paying for more of
the comforts of life-clothiug, household
goods, sugar. tea, COTE aud labor saving ap-
planes now than at any other period of
their history It's true there is scarcity
OF employment. and wages and salaries are
low compared with what they were five or
SIX years ago; but this is offset by the cor
relative fact that the cost of living is lower
than it was five years ago-and a week s
wages. economically expended, will pro-
cure quite as large a share of neeessaries
and comforts as the nomiHally double
wages would procure in 1873 The country
is swarming with tramps, who profess to
be looking for work; but even the tramps
manage to live; they are fed and clothed
| they are consumers, if they are not pro-
| ducers. 1t would be better, of course, if
the idlers were all employed and made to
earn their own living; but after making al
lowance for this drawback the fact remains
| that both the production and consumption
OF articles that contribute to comfort are
steadily increasing in the country.

"a Widow and her Child."

A singular instance of superstition
came to light not long since, which is
thus related: Going into a neighbours
house. one day last week, found one
of the children suffering from severe
cough, and expressed my opinion that
it was case in which medical assis
lance should be obtained. The moth
er Of the boy agreed that it was very
bad, but before calling in a doctor
she intended to try cure that she had
long used III similar cases, and never
found to fail. On being pressed to
communicate the prescription, she
gravely informed me that the charm
consisted in Hale's Honey of Hore-
hound and Tar, and that it could be
obtained of all the druggists, Price
