a half q year, and that is the interest on u
capital OF six hundred dollars.
The man who saves ten cents DAY only is
so much ricker than he who does not as if be
owned life estate in house worth six
hundred dollars, and if invested quarterly
does not take half that time. But ten cents a
day is child's play, some will exclam. Well,
then, John Jacob Astor used to say that when
a man who wishes to be rich has saved ten
thousand dollars he has won half the battle
Not that Astor thought ten thousand much,
but he knew that in making such sum q
man acquired habits of prudent economy
which would keep him advancing in wealth.
How many, however, spend ten thousand in
few years in extra expenses, and then, on
looking back, cannot tell, as they say, "Whcre
the money went to- TO save Is 10 get rich.
To squander, even in small sums, is the first
step towards the poor house.

IT'S WHAT You SPEND.-"Its what thee'l

thee's to be rich or not" The advice was
ite, for it was Franklins in another shape.
Take care of the pence, and the pounds will
axe care of themselves" But it cannot be
too often repeated. Men are continually in
dulging in small expenses, saying to them
selves that it is only trife, yet forgetting
that the aggregate is serious, that even the
seashore Is made up of petty grains of sand.

avoids somewhat the evils that beset
his pathway at nOontime. He is not
so much exposed to sunburn or snow
blindness. 1t may sound strangely to
speak of sunburn in the frigid zone,
but perhaps nowhere on the earth is
the traveller more annoyed by that
great ill. The heat of ordinary eXer-
else compels him to throw back the
hood of his fur coat, that the cool eve
nlngs and mornings preclude his dis
carding, and not only his entire face
becomes blistered, but, especially if he
is fashionable enough to wear his hair
thin upon the top of his head, his en-
tire scalp is affected about as severely
as if a bucket of scalding water had
been poured over his head. This is
not an eXaggeration. During the
spring of 1880 Lieut.. Schwatka's entire
party, while upon a sledge journey
from Marble island to Camp DAILY,
were so severely burned that not only
their faces but their entire heads were
swollen to nearly twice their natural
size. And fine looking party they
were. Some had their faces so swollen
that their eyes were completely closed
upon awakening from sleep. When
one could see the others he could not
refrain from laughing, so ludicrous was
the spectacle. All dignity was lost.
Even the august commander of the
party was laughing stock, and,
though he knew why they laughed at
each other, he could not understand
why he should excite such mirth until
he saw his face i'll the mirror, and then
he, too, tried to smile, but his lips
were so thoroughly swollen that the
effort was entirely lost, and it was i'm
possible to tell whether his expression
denoted amusement, anger or pain.
The torture resulting from these burns
was so severe that it was almost i'm
possible to sleep. The fur bedding,
which also served the purpose of pill
low, irritated the burns like applying a
mustard plaster to a blister. Then it
was that the night was turned into day
for the rest of the journey, and during
the heat of the day the party were
comparatively comfortable in the shell
ter of their tent. Straw hats would
have been the proper style of head
dress, but they had been omitted from
the outfit, rs was also another very i'm
pOrtant source of comfort, mosquito
netting. 1t is in the summer however,
that the necessity for the latter luxury
is encountered New York Herald.

Arctic Sunshine.

1t is difficult, indeed, for one who
has not witnessed it himself to under
stand the full meaning of the enid
night sun" The idea of the long Arc
tic night seems to be much more gen
orally comprehended. Nearly all wri-
ters upon the subject, whether those
who have themselves experienced its
effects, or whether their knowledge is
derived from study, dwell with great
force on the terribly depressing effect
upon the physical organization of ma
tives of the median zones caused by
the long Arctic night whenever brought
within its influence.
In this latitude the sun goes down at
night, and we retire to our couches
and sleep. In the morning the sun re-
turns, and we rise to the pursuit of our
daily avOcatiOns. But there in the
spring the sun never sets. There is
no morning and no night. 1t is one
continuous day for months. At first it
seems very difficult to understand this
strange thing in nature. One never
knows when to sleep. The world
seems to he entirely wrong, and man
grows nervous and restless. Sleep is
driven from his weary eyelids, his APP
petite fails, and all the disagreeable
results of prOtracted vigils are appar-
ent. But gradually he becomes used
to this state of affairs, devises means
to darken his tent, and once more en-
joys his hour of rest. In fact, he learns
how to take advantage of the new ar
rangement, and when travelling pur-
sues his journey at night, or when the
sun is lowest, because then he finds tho
frost that hardens the snow great as
sistance in sledging.
The SUMS rays then, falling more oh
iliquely, are less powerful, and h'

mony of the great bodies which can
alone influence our being, whether
of place, motion, or existence, and
seems to explode any theory or proph-
ecy of destruction or material change,
of want or superabundance of caloric,
of less or more light or darkness, or of
shorter or longer days of seed time or
harvest.
No change having occurred during
the existence of such malign influences
as have been shown to have prevailed,
it certainly seems to me that none can
occur under whatever state of affairs
may hereafter happen, for surely the
worst has passed with no i'll effect, and
it is always a fair judgment to base
our predictions of the future upon the
events of the past. In other words,
all foretelling of the end of the world,
all prophecies of evil, are not worth the
paper they are written on, or the
breath spent in pronouncing them, and
we have another lease of existence,
until some other time arrives when
prophets and sOothsayers are i'll want

The Winning Of Wealth.

We believe the winning of wealth to
be a perfectly legitimate pursuit.
Wealth has great and beneticent uses,
and the world would 90 very slowly if
money could not he accumulated in
wise and enterprising hands but
wealth may be used to make all men
near it prosperous and happy, or it
may be used to make them poor and
miserable. When a rich man is only
excited by his wealth with the desire
to he richer, and goes on to exact larg-
er profits and to grind the faces of the
poor, i'll order that he may be supertiu-
Ously rich, he becomes inhuman and
unchristian. The Christian use Ot
wealth is what we need i'll this country
and in all countries. 1t is not thai
wealth does not give in charity. 1t i,
not that wealth is not sufficiently taxed
for the support of those who are
wrecked in health or fortune, but it il
that wealth does not give the people {
chance to escape from poverty that i
does not share it's chances with the
poor, and point the pathway for the
poor toward prosperity. As IL rule
wealth is only brothcrly toward wealth
and the poor man feels himself cut of
from sympathy with those who hav,
the power of winning money. We ma!
rest assured of one thing, namely, tina
the poor in the future will insist on be
ing recognized. If they are not rec
Ognized-if they are ignored in til,
mad greed for wealth at any cost t,
them-they will make the future
troubled and terrible one for Ou
children and our children's children
