These considerations are briefly

occasion is opportune; partly because
they are irrefutable, and partly be-
cause we are more than ever endeav-
oring to lay the groundwork of a
more useful, permanent and durable
existence in this community.

The future may be prsdicated

The future may be prsdicated
thereon.
The JOURNAL is always in favor of
peace, quiet, good will. 1t would
have amity prevail between miner
and operator, based, of course, upon
mutual exchanges of justice and
square dealing. 1t would have the
people of this region realize their due
proportion of the proceeds of their
labor in developing our immense re.
sources. The two last propositions
holding good, the first follows in nat
ural sequence.
Hence, when work proceeds smooth
1y; when everybody seems contented,
we are not willing to comply with
every individual desire, morbidly ex-
pressed, to look for, publish and COM
ment upon every disagreeable affair
that incidentally occurs in every bus
mess. What is the need of feeding
the people upon frebrands when
there are better things at hand, or
when "silence is golden ?"
But when great demands are made,
amounting to enormous levies upon
the labor and living of our people
or, when it is needed that the work
ingmen should be placed before the bar
of public opinion in their proper atti-
tude, we shall feel it our duty to aid
them to the farthest limit of our force.
What more can they ask
What more can we give?

The Hair.

THIS fashion of crimping and curling
the hair of children is positively iniqui-
tous. Wee creatures of three or four
years, and even younger, are arrayed
in curl papers, by affectionate and ad-
miring mothers, who are bent upon
making the children charming, and
who do not stop to consider how far
they may be defeating their own ends
by the action, or how much pain they
may be inflicting on the objects of their
fond solicitude. An authority on that
subject says: "Up to the age of six or
seven children retain what is called
their baby hair which is injured, not
improved, by cutting. 1t is quite diff
ferent from the harsher hair which sue
ceeds it. If the hair curls naturally it
looks charming dressed in that fashion,
but putting it in papers is sure to in
jure it and pull it out by the roots. The
use of curling irons is still more objec-
tionable; anything which tangles and
cuts the hair is bad in the extreme, and
it is to be regretted that mothers draw
so heavily upon the capital of their
children's hair, instead of using the
yearly increasing interest of its beauty
and value" By keeping the scalp of
the head clean, and the hair brushed
into silky softness, its beauty can be
preserved until late in life.

Old Names the Best.

In a recent meeting of the Detroit
Lime Kiln Club Sir Isaac Walpole
handed President Gardner an epistle
from a colored mother in Detroit who
wanted advice as to what name to give
her daughter. She had worried over
the subject for six weeks, and now trust
ed that the club would suggest some
thing which her romantic mind could
ACCEPT.

A Public BenefactOr.

"Down at Hornellsville,' the tall,
thin passenger remarked, "some of the
boys were telling me about q young
fellow who lost his wife. They took
her remains to some remote point, her
old home, believe, for interment. On
their way back home, the bereaved
husband, accompanied by the physi-
clan, stepped off the train at dining
station for little refreshment. When
they went in they saw q man at the
lunch counter, his elbows squared, and
his jaws working like an electric ma
chine. When they went in, he was
standing about midway between the
ends of the counter. The physician
and the mourner couldn't help noticing
that everything on tie counter below
the man was gone; cleaned out, de-
voured; and everything above him was
untouched. Steadily the man worked
his devastating way toward the bounti-
full end of the counter, and the other
passengers stood back to see fair play
and give the counter q chance. In
time the man worked his way clear and
clean up to the wall; he surrounded
the last sawdust sandwich, he wrestled
down the last piece of waterproof
mince pie, he choked little on the
last plaster-paris cast of q doughnut,
but he got it down. Then, with pro-
found sigh, gazing along the wreck
strewn counter, he walked away with
the air of a man who had just sacrificed
himself for the good of his fellow-men,
saying in tones Of triumphant satisfac-
ton:
There, by gaul! The next fellow
that comes along here will get some
thing fresh!''-Btrdette

A QUIET HOUSE.

My house is quiet now, 40 still!

My house Is quiet now, 90 STILL
But silence breaks my heart! wait.
And waiting yeam for Gall on knock,
To hear the creaking OF the gate.
And footsteps coming soon or late
To greet me sitting desolate.
The silence breaks my heart, lwait.
As through the lonely house I GU.
From ball to hall. from room to room
What shall seek 10 find CT know?
The brooding shadows spread and grow,
The startling echoes mock me so,
As through the lonely house ] go.
All! blessed Heaven, If could hear
Sweet noises in the tranquil gloom.
Soft broken songs and laughter clear.
The joyous tumult, glad and near,
That yexed me many happy year
All! blessed Heaven, if could hear.
All! blessed Heaven. if once. once more
My longing eyes might see the stain
OF little footprints on the floor,
The sweet child-faces gone before,
All! blessed Heaven, but once, once more.
My house and home are very still!

Pictures Of Misery In Ireland.

The first cabin into which went was
place that an Englishman would think
too bad for his pig. Its floor of earth
and stones, reeked with damp, and
water even stood in the hollows; the
only furniture was q few cups and
saucers, q stool or two, and as many
tubs and pots; in one corner a mass Of
dirty straw had evidently been used as
a bed, and on the wretched hearth
smoked rather than burnt an apology
for fire. The man of the ehouse-shoe-
less and coatless, pale and haggard-
sat idle upon bag of Indian meal. be-
yond which his food resources did not
go, and through the gloom around the
hearth-there was no window to speak
of-could be dimly made out one or
two crouchiug female figures. never
saw anything in the way of q home in
a civilized cOuntry-and I have seen q
good deal-more appalling than this.
Yet here was the case of q man renting
three acres of land, and usually getting
what he would be content to call liv-
ing out of them. Now, alas! he and
the thousands of others like him, have
reached the end of their miserable last
seasons crop, and beyond them but q
little way lies starvation. The half bag
of Indian meal was all the family had,
nothing more remaining upon which, by
sale or mortgage, money could be
raised, and to the question What will
you do when the meal gives outP" came
the despairing answer, The good
Lord only knows"
Not far from this, was shown by my
melancholy attendants into an equally
wretched hovel, where widow with
seven young children was fighting the
bitter battle of life, and rapidly getting
worsted in the struggle. She herself
had gone out gathering what she could
of stuff to make a fire wherewith to
cook the family dinner, consisting of q
single cabbage! But the poor little
children, half clothed, thin and hollow
eyed, were there to plead with heart
rending eloquence for aid. Once more
1 heard the old story. The land had
yielded nothing; no turf could be OBJ
tained for fuel short of a journey of
eight miles, and the family had touched
absolute destitution. Over the way, in
another apology for dwelling-place, l
found three poor women trying to kim
die fire with damp beanstaiks, their
only crop, in order to cook a dish of
Indian meal, their only food.-Londoa

The celebration of the Robert Raikes

On the 10th of December. in
small city in Eastern Bohemia, thirty
one persons were fined two dollars and
fifty cents each for attending Bible
service not connected with the State
Church. The leader of the meeting was
fined twelve dollars and fifty cents. On
the 14th of December the attempt of
the few believers in Stupitz, near
Prague, to hold q Bible service in one
of their homes was frustrated by the
police. On the 1st of November the
Austrian Cabinet decided that the
Stupitzers might hold house Bible
services with invited guests, but the
needed document has not reached these

and Edward G. Andrew fifty-four. At
the meeting of the General Conference
in May there will certainly be three or
four Bishops elected. DR.. j.. M. Wal

number. In that case it is likely that
a layman will be selected as one of the
