LABOR AND EDUcATIoN.-In paper read be-
fore the Michigan State Teachers Association u,
Prof. G. L. Thomas, OF Saginaw City, says:
Out of the labor problem must come an edu-
catonal force TO lif; up the masses, OF the
masses will drag down our Institutions Labor,
crying out against capital, is the demand or the
foolish virgins for oil from the wise the
thoughtless stretching out imploring hands to
the thoughtful for salvation. Trained and
disciplined men know how to plan. They deal
with the laws OF society, of business aud of
commerce, es they do with the laws OF nature.
And the very tides that overwhelm the undisc
pinned, prudently taken at the food bear them
on to fortune. Only infancy and imbecility
wait to lie fed and they whose sole reliance Is
to labor with their han nds, on work provided by
thinkers, are the worlds suckhpgs; docie
enough when employed and comfortable, vIo-
lent and destructive when unproyided for. The
grand social problem of to-day, in our country
at least, is how to make this class intelligent.
thoughtful, and independent. The problem is
double. They must be elevated both in intel
hgence and morals. Morality and ignorance
are incompatible, and therefore mental pro-
gress must come first. Law punlshes, but
never reforms; only educates, In alliance with
the morality OF religion, can elevate this class
and save society from them and them from
themselves. How this great problem shall be
solved ls question not now to be discussed
The civilized world has, within the memory Of
most us, put an end to physical bondage. wise

The young ladies' (and the boys too y may
be interested in the following from the pen of
the Lansing correspondent OF the Detroit
News
Many OF the members relieve the tedium OF
legislation by bringing their wives and families
to lansing for biief season, and Representa-
tive hall frequently presents an attractive ap-
pearance from the ladies sitting by the side OF
their protectors, or ranged on chairs with the
Lansing ladies along the walls. The old darkey
who said that he never drank any poor whisky,
but that some whisky was heap bstter than
others. might have extended his comparison to
the fair sex. Certainly they are all interesting,
but some are more attractive than others Pc
culiarly might this have been applied to two
pretty, buxom young girls, twin daughters OF a
rural member, who were almost as regular in
their attendance as their father last week.
Their fresh, apple blossom bloom distracted
many an old greybeard member from the busi-
ness of the floor, induced some OF the younger
members to rhetorical display, and softened
even the caukered hearts OF the newspaper
correspondents. Their charms are not great er
than some OF the capital bellies, but they have
the immense advantage OF beng useful as well
as ornamental. Though not vet 16 years Of
age. these two damsels cut f75 acres OF wheat
last harvest. besides numerous acres OF grass,
receiving compensation of g 80 per day; and
last fall and winter were so regular in their at
tendance at the village school, Al miles from
their home, driving there and back daily and
SO faithful to their stndles that not one mark
was recorded against them by their teachers.
Their father, a sensible but merry old bucolic
grig, says the twins are the best men on his ex-
tensive farm. The horses on the farm know
and love them, and they can ride the wildes;
barebacked with or without the solitary aid OF
a bride. In harvest time they hitch up their
teams to the reapers, and drive out to cut the
nodding grain, and their acute young ears de-
tect the slightest jar in the machinery, and are
quick with wrench, chlse and oil-can to put il
in order And later, when evenings home
pleasures are near, the pretty twins can preside
at the piano with skill and grace. But to me
the picture OF those maidens Of our century
yet most meek; those daughters OF our mead
ows yet not coarse, Is most attractive as pre-.
sented by primrose fancy in the fields,
Like waders in the surf
Beyond the brook, waist-deep in meadow

Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.

DAIN in the right side, under the
/ edge Of the ribs, increases on pres
sure; sometimes the pain is in the left
side; the patient is rarely able to lie
on the left side; sometimes the pain is
felt under the shoulder blade, and it
frequently extends to the top Of the
shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken
TO rheumatism in the arm. The
stomach is affected with loss Of appe-
Tie and sickness; the bowels in gen
eral are costive, sometimes alternative
with lax; the head is troubled with
PAIN, accompanied with a dull, heavy
sensation in the back part There is
generally a considerable loss OF mem
cry accompanied with a painful SEN
,ion Of having left undone some
.hing which ought to have been done.
4 sight, dry cough is sometimes an
attendant The patient complains of
weariness and debility; he is easily
startled, his feet are cold or burning,
and he complains of a prickly sensa-
zion OF the skin; his spirits are low;
and although he is satisfied that exer-
else would be beneficial to him, yet
he can scarcely summon up fortitude
enough to try it. In fact, he distrustS
every remedy. Several OF the above
symptoms attend the disease, but cases
have occurred where few of them ex-
listed, yet examination of the body,
after death, has shown the LIVER to
