Tired Out.

One day Miss Lily Macnish heard
the dcor-bell ring. She put down her
spelling-book and asked, "What can
that be, mammal Before mamma
could answer, Jane, the housemaid, en-
tered aud handed her note.
Why, this is not for me it is for
you, my dear, said Mrs. Macnish, Civ
ing the note to Lily.
For me-" said Lily, while her
cheeks flushed for it was the first note
she had ever received.
''Please read it for me, mamma, " she
said; for Lily could not read handwrit-
ing quite as we'll as some little girls of
her age that could tell of.
cit is an invitation to children's
party at Mrs. Vane's," said mamma.

parties, especially when they take place
IN the evening"" said mamma. "But
know who will say Yes, and suppose
shall have to do as he says"
She was thinking of Lily's papa, who
loved the little girl so much that he
could not bear to say "No" to any re-
quest she might make.
Well, mamma was right Papa saw
that his little girl was bent on going to
the party, and so he leased his wife into
yielding her consent
So, when Thursday came. Lily was
dressed up in her little white robe, with
straw-colored ribbons, and her pretty
slippers, and sent in carriage, with
Jane, the housemaid, to the party.
1t was not quite such party as 1 APP

and boys trying to act like grown-up
people. 1 like to see them act like
children.
Lily had the good taste to get tired of
it all very soon. Little girls would come
along and stare at her slippers but she
did not feel much pride in them. Little
boys would come and bow, and ask her
to dance but she had had enough.
There was music and singing, and then
ice cream and cake were handed round :.
but Lily had promised to eat nothing
and she kept her promise.
At half-past eight o'clock she saw
Jane beckouing to her at the door: and
very glad she was at the sight. Bidding
Miss Vane "good night she let Jane
put on her shawl, and lead her to the
carriage. ''Oh, am so tired, so tired p
said poor Lily.
Mamma received her at the door of

THE wear and tear of life comes chiefly
from straining after the impossible.
Nervous excitement, alternating hopes
and disappointments, unaYpiling strug
giles. feverish anxieties, bitter failures
these are the worst enemies of health
and happiness, the most fatal destroyers
of peace and prosperity. They come
for the most part from taking up need
less burdens.

Resnecting The Sabbath.

The people of New Hampshire town
are so fearfully lazy that when the wife
of minister who had just settled in that
town asked prominent citizen if the
inhabitants generally respected the Sab

DAVID DAVIS ON THE REPUBLICAN
PARTY.

Senator David Davis just elected Presi-
dent of the Senate by the Republicans
voted for Hancock last year and opposed
Garfield, giving his lucid reasons in a
letter to James E. Harney, dated August
4, 1880. "Bhave no hesitation in sup
porting General Hancock" he wrote,
because his election will put an end to
sectional parties and will revive patriO-
tic sentiment all over the land which
political leaders and factions for sinister
ends have sought to prevent"
Mr.. Davis said this of the Republican
party not long ago: "After twenty years
"Of domination by the Republicans,
chronic abuses have become fastened
upon the public service like barnacles
upon the bottom of a stranded ship.
"There is no hope of reform by leaders
''whO have created a system of malad-
''ministratiOn and who are interested in
''perpetuating its evils. Nothing short
"Of the sternest remedy gives any prom
Else of effective reform, and the first step
towards it is in change of rulers.
New blood must be infused into the
management of public affairs before re-
"lief can be expected. The people de-
"mand change, and, being in earnest,
they are likely to be gratified."

WHAT is THE CAUSE ?

of 1,333015 tons of shipping. In 1886
her tonnage was 1,311,218 tOns-a de-

ing for the shipping of Canada what il
did for the shipping of the United States
The same process is here begun. The
end cannot but be equally disastrous
In the United States the mOnOpOlists now
propose that the Government shall build
ships and sail them at the public eX-
pense. They might as well propose
that the Government should engage in
making leather, or opening the closed
factories. In 1860 the United States
was pressing hard upon the heels of Eng
land as a commercial nation. Now she
does not stand as well relatively as she
did fifty years ago. The Mail says it is
the large iron steamships of England
that are doing the mischief. We deny it,
The iron steamships did not hurt the
United States until $780, nor Canada un-
til 1879. Why did they not hurt us

bic of meeting every emergency, that
they are not flies on the wheel" Here

This rise in price is not, then, the re-
suit of scarcity. Gambling is at the
bottom of it, some speculatOrs betting
on fall and others on rise in price.
As a consequence the price of bread is
increased to the consumer.
The same spirit of speculation ex-
tends to all necessaries of life. Pork,
beef, butter, lard, &C., are, as cOnse-
quence, greatly affected and are rating
higher in price. We hear too, OF

gambling in railway and other stocks.
Wall street has been implOring the
Secretary of the United States Treasury

interfere. Should he conclude to enter
the market, those who enjoyed his con-
fidence and could get the knowledge

case on "Black Friday" when Grant or
dered sudden sale of gold.
All this shows the precariOusness of
our monetary system; the uncertainty
of values in consequence; the liability
to vicissitude of all business, with la
Dor at the mercy of this merciless gam
bling condition.

THE INDEPENDENT MOVEMENT IN
PENNSYLVANIA

Led by Charles s. Wolfe as a candidate
for State Treasurer is calculated to test
the sincerity of Republicans in that
State.
The rank and file of that party have
been mere yassals of the machine fol
years. They were for Blaine in 1876
by an immense majority, but their voice
was smothered by the tyranny of the
machine, and lost. They were for Blaine
again in 1880, and were again baffled by
the same power. They annually send
their delegates up to the State COnyen-
tion instructed for decent men and hon
est principles, only to see them thrown
out, bought, or browbeaten by the BOSSES
They elect members of the Legislature
whom they fOndly expect to represent
them fairly, only to see them cOrralled
like cattle in the Ring pens at Harris
burg, and made to serve the plunderes
of the State.
They have seen the sceptre of the ell
der Cameron handed down to the son,
and the commission to represent that
great Commonwealth in the Federal
Senate disposed of like a personal chat
tel.
They have seen their treasury robbed
from year to year; the public moneys to
the amount of millions deposited in pet
banks. or used in speculation, while the
interest was regularly embezzled and
passed to the private accounts or devOt-
ed to the public purposes of the mem
bers of the Ring.
Corporate power in collusiOn with pO-
litical rings have rode over the people
and their rights in manner worthy the
dOmineering tyrants of the old world.
Lhe bribers have debauched the Legis-
lature, and made corruption the rule,
taking care to observe addition, division
and silence"
Mr.. Wolfe thinks this condition of
things has gone on long enough, and
hence his move to purify the Republican
party. He only asks Republican votes.
He is fighting the machine, run by the
rings and corporate power. We shall see
how he comes out.
