THE idea that Pennsylvania avenue mer-

it is certain that the liberal advertising

THE COMMUNE IN NEW YORK.

The Communists of New York held
meeting last Monday night, at the beer
saloon Of Citizen JUsTUs SCHwAB, for the
purpose of raising funds and extending sub
stant!al sympathy TO their suffering friends
across the water. otherwise known as Ger
man Socialists. SCHwAB sold much beer ut
five cents q glass. The fund raised was
twenty dollars-in promises to pay-and
SCHwAD pocketed it along with the beer
money. At hrst glance this proceeding Is
apt to evoke q feeling Of contempt and ridi-
cule for the participants, and to leave the
impression that the Commune is not such
terrible thing after all. But itshould be
remembered that the sentimentalism of
your average Communist does not lead in
the direction Of charity to his fellow-m
He Is o selfish rascal, whose friendships are
ephemeral, whose immediate bodily wants
are gratitied at any cost, and whose
every action Is dictated by cynical
hatred Of everybody else, supplemented by
q desire to obtain public notoriety at any
risk. The Hero of the Barricade in Paris is
never a generous, loving friend, except as
regards one, or two at the most, intimates
who share their all with him Such n man
was CLUsERET. But when such men COM
bne by accident, as they seldom do by de-
sign, they become dangerous. They are the
mob of the instant They bear the quick,
iniiammablo torch Of the impulsive and un-
premeditated inccndiary. They carry
knives and pistols, but use them only when
an inspiration Of dabolism scizes them.
Always restless, they are not necessarily
violent, but when accident arouses them to
overt proceedings, they 90 about their hell
ish work with the vigor and quickly-spent
fury of whirlwind. When that work is
over they flee from the presence of outraged
law, and humble over their prosecuted con-
dition. Citizen ScHwAB is a phlogmatic,
money-getting specimen Of this type. His
immediate followers are harmless so long as
they simply cluster around him and spend
their precariously-earned money for his beer
or bulge his pockets out with promises to
pay impossible sums to relieve the sullerings
OF the Socialists of Europe; but the time
may come when he will swallow his phlegm
in dose Of absinthe, inspire the sycophants
about him with the fury of aggressive agra
rianism, and sally forth to delugc New York
with rapidly-passing avalanche of riot and
rapine. The Aimplc fact that he raised no
funds for the object he had in view at this
meeting does not prove that the Commune
in New York is either harmless or weak.

What is dandruff? Is it disease? Is
il durable? No, no no 1t is an evidence
of healthy scalp, and as to its cure, you
might as well attempt to stop your toe
nails from growing. 1t is simply Natures
mode OF renewing the scarf skin all over
the body, and the reason why it is not
shown on other parts is that the friction
of clothing removes it as fast as 1t is
loosened, while the hair of the head, if
not often brushed and combed, or wash
ed, prevents its escape.
Now if you have any doubt as to the
truth of what have asserted, rub the in
side of your lower limbs smartly with a

material as the dandruff oD your scalp,

The Electric Light

IL is significant fact, while the cleo

credit from its projection of shadows,
lts ghastly effect on the complexion, its
lndiVisloility, and its expensiveness that
IL is constantly being introduced into

economy is generally recognized. In-
lnite are its uses. 1t has recently been
successfully employed for photo
graphing by night. In Paris most of

ates the track so great distance ahead
that the engineer can discern oDstructions

the light is very good, the colored photo

proper colors as In day light. There
is nothing either ghastly or ghostly in the

Garry ing Out His Contract.

HOW A SMART hoy CAME IN ONE AHEAD
OF HIS EMPLOYERS.
From Causere of Boston Transcript.
A young fellow, fresh as as a daisy, and
full of enthusiasm for work, was EN-
ployed by a well-known firm in the dry
goods business. The contract was a sim
pie one, but it was a contract. On his
part, the youth was to give his services
and do what he was told. On its part,
the firm was to pay him 500 for the first
years work and teach him the business
The money considerations was insignih-
cant; the knowledge of the business was
what the youth was after. He was put
down cellar kept opening and mailing
up boxes, running errands and sweeping
the store; in word he was made to do
porter's work, and his employers no
doubt chuckled at the thought that they
were getting for 50 week work that
was well worth S15. But, like sensible
fellow, the youth said nothing until the
time was up. Onthe morning of the first
anniversary of his coming to the store he
was on hand carry, aud, when the senior
partner came in, respectfully asked to
see him in the counting-room on business.
The man of business acceded to the re-
quest, and the two entered the back Of
fice. "a year ago to-day" said the youth,
closing the door, 81 entered your service
and agreed to give you my time and work.
Have | done it to your satisfaction"
ENTIRELY SO" said the merchant, "and l
am willing to increase your" eek
cuse me-" sad the youth; 81 have more
to say. You agreed to pay me 500, and
you have done it, You also promised to
teach me the business, and you have de-
iberately and knowingly broken your
promise. know nothing about the dry
goods business, and 1t is your fault. You
have robbed me of years time. What
| do you propose to do abeut it?" The
merchant looked at the "boy," but he did
not finch. He had right ON his side, ,and
his employer knew it. He, the man who
prided himself that his word was as good
as his note, had been accused by n beard
| less boy OF having failed to keep his agree
ment, and lie knew that the charge was
tue. He said nothing. "What l want" "
said the boy, sis All extra 300 as an in
crease" "You shall have IT, said the
merchant. And besides that" con-
| tinued the youth, II want 5000 addition
al TO partly make good your broken prom
| ise."
| Again the merchant looked into his
eye, but got no comfort. "Wel," he
said, otis "a good deal to pay boy the
second year, but l will see about" And
he did "see about IT," for the next morn
ing the boy was a salesman, on S4OO
salary. 1t don't pay to rob boy who
knows his rights.
