One Of the most praise worthy
things the United States Senate has
done at this session was the passage,
day before yesterday, of Wallace's
small bond bill. We have on sew
eral former occasions commented
favorably upon this bill. 1t pro-
vides for the issuance of 100000
900 coupon bonds, of $25, $50 and
500, redeemable in coin fifty years
after the date of their issue, bearing
four per cent. interest payable semi
annually. aa

Means Committee of the House. No
Savings Bank can be so safe as this,
and none can afford to pay better
interest.-Register.

The organs continue to find fault
about the conviction of Anderson At
New Orleans. They accuse the Judge
of unfairness, assert that the jury
was packed to convict-that the two
negroes upon the panel were tricked
and deceived into a vcrdict-that
there was no proof Of guilt, and that
the whole proceeding was but the
persecution of an innocent man. All
this criticism is without q particle
classification. It's Objects to divert
attention from the real facts in the
case and lessen the effect of a judicial
decision establishing the fact that

The Philosophy of Strikes.

Where are you going with the puppies,
my little man ?" asked gentleman of a
small boy yesterday whom he met with
three pups in basket.
"GOin' to drown them," was the
reply
want pup for my little boy to play
with; what do you say to letting me
take one of them ?'
"I'll sell you one" spoke up the boy,
with true American enterprise.
"Ill sell you this yaller one for half a
dollar, the black one for rs cents, and
the spotted one is worth dollar.
81 think my boy would like the spot
ted one the best, but you ask too much
for it. You had intended drowning all
of them, but III give you 25 cents and
save you the trouble OF drowning the
spotted one" -,
''Twenty.fve cents for that spotted
pup exclaimed the boy 81 can't
stand it; taxes is high rent is high !;
groceries is high; oil is down and going
lower--oh, no; | can't take less than a
dollar"
"But you intend to drown"
"Take the black one at 10 cents"
"My little boy wouldn't like the black
one"
Take the yaler one at half dollar,
and he's dog cheap
81 don't like his color"
"WelI, then you'd better tell your lit
tie boy to play with your toes" and he
continued on his way to the river, re-
marking that mo party can desd.best
his way on me these hard times. - Oil

Gently it became question how to reach
the top and make good connection for

testing the old and weather-wOrn rope a
rigger volunteered to climb up, carrying a
new one. Up he went, and reaching the toy
in safety, waved his hat and cut the old rope
down. The surprise of those on the ground
can abe imagined when the old rope, or
striking the ground, fell into thousand

HEAT, says..the Lancet, oppresses the
spirits, lowers the tone of vitality, and
pervades the whole body with feeling
Of lsssitude and incapacity. This con-
dition points to a necessity for reduce
tion of exertion and excitement when
the physical world is overheated. In
stead, however, of complying with the
plain teaching of nature, and lessening
activity, people resort to various devices
to lessen the sensation of heat. Perspi-
ration is moisture which nature spreads
over the surface of the human body for
much the same purpose as an intelligent
housewife sprinkles water over her but
ter cooler. But perspiration is checked
by sitting in draughts, by wearing very
little clothing, and by adopting light
colors for dress, The remedy is taken
for the disease, and through impeding
the processes of nature, summer colds
and other allied evils are contracted.
The conditions of health require that,
within very narrow limits the tempera.
ture of the human body should be the
same, whether the thermometer stands
at 900 in the shade or sinks to few de-
grees below zero"
