Good Advice TO Parents.

Many parents labor under the mis-
taken impression that their children
must pass through the ordeal known as
children's diseases, and, as they some
times express it, the sooner the better.
A child is no more subject to disease lin
fact less sol than an admit, if the proper
precautions are taken to regulate its Ill
ct and keep the system cleansed by APP
propriate medicines. BY this We do not
mean an habitual dosing" with purga-
tiyes. Such a practice would weaken
the infant system so that it could not re-
sist the attacks of disease, and would
also prove ruinous to its physical con.
stitution. But a moderate, occasional
use of an efficient Alternative, or blood
purifier, would almost absolutely insure
the child's system against disease, be,
sides greatly promoting its vigor and
strength. DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery is unexcelled as an Alternative
and will prove very efectual proven
tive of these diseases.

RESOURCES OF WEST VIR-
GINA.
Gov. Matthews interviewed

The New York Tribune publishes an
interview with Gov. Matthews, of West
Virginia, who is now on visit to that
city. Briefly summarized, Gov. Mat
thews said: The present population Of
the Stateis estimated at 500, 900, gain Of
about 60, 1000 since 1870, chiefly natural
increase, there having been very little
immigration; the salt works interest in
the Kanawha valley, which has been
much depressed, is now picking up rapid
ly; the oil industry is not making much
headway, and the business has lost its
speculative character. The glass works
at Wheeling are prosperous, and new
discoveries of valuable iron deposits are
reported on New river, on the line be-
tween Virginia and West Virginia.
ThescOal fields are being worked to a
much greater extent than formerly since
the opening of the Chesapeake and Ohio
railroad, and West Virginia has more
coal, and a much greater variety, too, in
proportion to territorial extent, than any
State in the Union. The State govern
ment is economically administered.
The cost OF feeding penitentiary convicts
isonly 81 eentsper day and the entire cost
OF food, clothing, guards and salaries of
officials is only % cents per day for each
convict, whilst the cost OF maintaining
each inmate of the insane asylum, in
Guiding ali expenses, is only 81 SO per
week. Gov. Matthews says there is no
State debt, and the people are willing to
settle with Virginia by allowing West
Virginia to be charged with all public
improvements within her borders, and
with her proportion of the current ex-
penses Of the State government since
1924, and to be credited with all taxes
paid into the State treasury by the coun-
ties of which she is composed since that
date. Upon that basis, Gov. Matthews
says, it has been estimated that Vir-
ginia would be indebted TO the new
State about 100000. The public schools
are in good condition and improving,
and the rate of State taxation is 20 cents
on the 500 for State purposes, and 10
cents for the school fund. There are
only 1900 colored people in the State,
not enough to form an important ele,
ment Gifts population.

Personale Of Preachers.

New York Letter to the Boston Journal.
The different denominations, COngre-
cations and ministers can be as easily
distinguished as regiments in a division
can be. No two denominations look
alike. Going by a church that is out, in
the morning. any one familiar with New
York can tell the denomination by look
ing at the people. The Episcopalians
are dressy, radiant in gay ribbons, flow
ers and iewelry. They are the ton OF
church-goers. The Presbyterians are
equally rich in their costumes but less
cav. Their style of dressing for church
is sober and subdued. A congregation OF
these PEOPLE resembles the English
worshipers. There is an unmistakable
difference between the Congregation
alists and Presbyterians, yet the general
outlook and social life are the same,
There is a western look about Metho-
dist congregation. However rich the
garniture. Methodist congregation can
be distinguished as we'll as if it were
black. The BaptiSts are not fashion
able. They have a comfortable look,
like well-to-do shOpkeepers and master
mechanics. There is an equal difference
in the style of the preaching. The ser
mons of the Episcopalians are short,
rhetorical. discursive. The Presby'
terians give their people most thought
The Methodists are gushing. The Bap-
lists are exhortatOry. The outside
sects, and they are legion, are fond o.
delivering speeches about SOdOm and
Gomorrah, and the horns and beasts IN
Revelations.
A Young man in one of our colleges
expressed preference for the ministry
~, hat denomination shall you select
"Episcopalian, l think" "Why so"
"Well, their prayers are printed. Most
of them marry rich wires. The sermons
are short, and, if one wants to, he can
steal them"

THOSE STEEL RAILS.
An Indirect Vanderbilt Express
sion of Opinion.

SAOh OA NPAAAAohe
The Vanderbilt party reached Cleve-
land night before last. VIM. II. was no
more accessible to reporters there than
here. Mr.. f. d. Worcester, Treasurer
of the Lake Shore Railroad, a leading
Vanderbilt courtier, was there, however,
and was asked this question:
"What is your opinion, Mr.. Worces-
ter, of Mr.. Yanderbilt's purchase OF
1900 tons of steel rails from English
parties at a rate of Sl2 per ton over the
price of American railsP
at is matter think easily explain
ed, and one which has created much
more excitement than it warrants. The
Vanderbilts are not the men to purchase
cheap rails that will suit certain pur-
pose rather than buy better article at
a better price. 1t is the old story of
penny wise and pound foolish, and it is
rather surprising that Mr.. Vanderbilt
should be so bitterly attacked. The idea
that Mr.. Vanderbilt has any Interior
motive in purchasing steel rails abroad
is prepOsterOus. The only thing that
has induced him to do so is saving in
price. OF course American manufac-
turers claim that they could have made
a better rail at the advanced price, but
that is an abstract question. 1t is like
assuming that your uncleis you aunt and
arguing from that point. Suppose, for
instance, you go to a tailor and order a
SUIT of clothes. The clothes when made
are found to fit you badly. You remon-
strate, and the tailor says, why, of
course, could have made them to fit
you, if YOU had said so. 1t would have
cost you a little more, but could easily
have done So You, of course, 60 TO
another tailor for your next suit. The
matter OF fitting you was matter so
well understood, that it was supposed
unnecessary to repeat it. 1t was implied
in the contract. II American steel rail
manufacturers have allowed their stand
ard to decrease for the purpose Oigetting
a price to suit people, why that is their
own fault, and this result is a very
natural one. The item OF $1,000 tons is
not a great one, but | hope for the sake
of the American manufacturers, that
they will profit by this experience"
