The man who said that if you would

The man who said that if you would
give him the luxuries of life he would
manage 10 dispense with the necessities
will be pleased to learn that the Su-
preme Court of Indiana has decided
that what is usually considered a luxury
is necessity. The case arose from the
sale of cigar by the clerk of a hotel,
resulting in his arrest for the violation
of the Sunday law, which, like that of
nearly all States, forbids rioting, hunt
ing, fishing, quarreling, common labor
and the pursuit OF ones usual ayOca-
tons, works of charity and necessity
only excepted. The Court decided that
the word necessity" must be defined
according to its legal meaning only.
The term was applicable to the sailing
of ships, the running of steamboats, and
trains, carrying the mails, operating tel
egraphic lines, keeping up water works
and gas works, carrying on distilleries,
brewerics and running Touring mills.
These are not prohibited on Sunday
anywhere in the civilized world, and
seldom regulated any differently on
Sunday than on week day; and large
manufactures, blast furnaces, salt
works, oil wells and other pursuits
wherein heavy machinery is used, and
where a stoppage is attended with loss
or inconvenience, are seldom interfered
with in their Sunday operations. There
is no necessity tor working in shop,
blowing a field, selling from a store,
opening an office, etc., on Sunday; but
there is daily necessity for cooking
food, taking meals, drinking tea or cof-
fee or smoking a cigar. A hotel may
be kept on Sunday, as it is on week
day; and if it has cigar-stand, at
which cigars are sold on week days, it
is as lawful to sell cigar on Sunday as
to furnish cup of tea or coffee or sup
ply a meal of victuals. So that, in In
diana, 1t least, a cigar is pronounced a
legal "necessity," which opens up a
wide variety of moral and social ques-
tions tco extended for present discus
sion.-Detrou Free Press.

A RUSTIC VIEW OF RUBINSTEIN,

Well, sir, he had the blamedest, big
gest, catty-cornered pianner you ever
laid eyes on; somethin' like {, distract
ed billiard table on three legs. The lid
was hoisted, and mighty well it was. If
il hadn't been he'd tore the entire in
sides clean out, and scattered 'em to the
four winds of heaven.
Played we'll? You bet he did; but
don't interrupt me- When he first sit
down, he 'peared to keer mighty little
bout piayin', and wisht he hadn't come.
He tweedle-leed' ed little on the treble,
and twoodle-oodled some on the base
inst foolin' and boxin' the things jaws
for bein' in his way. And says to a
man settin' next to me, says /: "What
sort of fool playin' is that?' And he
says, Heish,'' But presently his
hands commenced chasin' one another
up and down the keys like a parcel of
rats scamperin' through garret very
swift. Parts Of it was sweet, though,
and reminded me of a sugar squirrel
turnin' the wheel of candy cage.
"Now," | says to my neighbor, she's
showin' off. He thinks he's a-doin' of
it, but he amt got no idee, no plan OF
nothin'. If he'd play me tune Of some
kind or other I'd

when | heard little bird waking up
away off in the woods, and call sleepy
like to his mate, and | looked up and
see that Ruby was beginning to take
some interest in his business, and l sit
down again Il was the peep of day.
The light came faint from the east, the
breezes blowed gentle and fresh. some
more birds walked up in the orchard,
then some more in the trees near the
house, and all begun singin' together.
People began to stir, and .he galopened
the shutters. Just then the first beam
of the sun fell upon the blossoms leetle
more, and it techt tie roses on the
bushes, and the next thing il was broad
dav; the sun fairly blazed, the birds
sung like they'd split their little throats; /;
all the leaves was movin', and flashin
diamonds of dew, and the whole wide
world WAS bright and happy as a king.
Seemed to me ike there was good
breakfast in every house in the land, and
not sick child or woman anywhere.
Ii was fine mornin'.
And says to my neighbor: "That's
music, that is.
But he glared at ME like he'd like TO
