Sir Garnet Woseley has hardly treated his oppo-

due courtesy in his article upon that question in the
Nineteenth Century, He certainly though does sub

seem to show that the army is now inferior in phys

ago. The idea that he " must make up his mind to
the constant drudgery Of teaching his own men"

Society in general is mpatiently awaiting with
feverish anxiety the appearance Of Messrs. Irving

animation though on the whole well fitted to bring
out merit for learned professions and even such call
ings as the Army, now almost scientific in its char
acter, has tendency to discriminate against the
more robust, and physically the more vigorous As
consequence, those best qualified for settlement
are rejected, and then their physical energies, which
might be directed into channels useful to themselves
and society, not only run to waste but may become
injurious to the community In discussing New

Silk Culture.

A communication from the WoMEN's SILK Gull
TURE ASSOCIATION OF THE UNITED STATES, draws
attention to the rearing Of silk worms as profitable
industry for the inhabitants of Rugby The advan-
tages claimed for it that it requires little capital
that the labor which it demands is light and is limited
to season Of six weeks or two months out Of the
year, and that when udicously carried on the profits
said to be comparatively large.
The first step in engaging in such an enterprise is
to set out the mulberry trees whose leaves are to
serve as food for the insects 1t will take one or
years before the worms can be introduced, &C
cording to the number of young trees or cuttings
planted The white mulberry is especially recon-
mended for this country, but as there are several
varieties of this mulberry that should be selected
whose peculiarites best adapted to the circun,-
stances under which it is to grow.
When the supply of leaves is sufficient to warrant
the introduction of the worms, rough wooden
structure is to be put up such as will shelter them
from rain and unreasonable cold weather, while at
the same time permits free ventilation. In this
building stands the table upon which the worms
to be reared, and here about the middle of May
to be placed the eggs, which should have been pre-
cured during the preceding winter. When the young
insects appear it becomes necessary to supply them
frequently with leaves freshly gathered from the trees

frequency of feeding. The caterpiars grow rapidly,
and in about four weeks after the Matching ready

ONWARD.

Pauslng moment to look on before
Seeing the goal as it shines more and more,
Fearing defeat, yet longing to win,
Trembling and wavering, thus we begin.
Wistful and earnest, determined to try,
Looking for JOY and success by and by
Eagerly hasting with footsteps so feet,
Onward, still onward, disdaining defeat
Feeling our weakness with CALLING contrition,
Passionate ardent, and wild with ambition
Reaping the whrlwind in doubt and despair,
Night closing DER us, sorrow and care,
YEARLY waiting, we watch for the morn
Bitterly Drawing tempest of scorn.
Thoughtully now in the darkness we gropc,
Learning the lessons of patience and hope,
Calmly and wistfully wait for the day,
Watching the morning star fading away,
Pressing on bravey meath the cold dawn,
Singing with hope, for the dark night is gone.
Earnestly, patiently, onward we CO.
Working and waiting, our progress is slow.
And with success there shall come no repose
Onward the soul would move, forward it goes,
Restless and ardent, unsatsfed here,
Looking beyond with smile and tear
Strange is the mingling of bitter and s:,eet,
Strange that we still hope on through all defeat.
Strange? No, it is not strange; promise is given,
We shall be satisfied, waking in Heaven.

THE RADICAL REMEDY WHICH
NEW JERSEY PROPOSES
FOR WIFE-BEATERS.

NEWARK, January 19.-The agita-
tion for whipping post for WIFE
beaters continues with some energy,
and if public sentiment can lead to its
establishment it is very likely to be-
come an active Furnishing agent in
Essex county. There Is some dubi-
BUSINESS about the constitutionality Of
the method. The New Jersey Con-
stitution says, article !, Section 10:
Excessive bail shall not be requir-
ed; excessive fines shall not be impos-
ed, and cruel and unusual punish
ments shall not be inflicted"
This was incorporated in the New
Jersey Constitution in 1874, and there
has been no whipping Of criminals
since 1852. 1t is said by some lawyers
that whipping is regarded as "cruel
aud unusual" unless it was permitted
by statute at the time such provision
was adopted. Ii this opinion ls good
there could be no authority given for
the establishment of a whipping post
except by a modification OF the Con
stitution or by the Courts winking at
the inhiction Of corporal punishment,
and it is to be feared that the Courts
of New Jersey, if they are not too up
right, are certainly too dignitied to
wink at anything.
1t is long while since there was
public whipping by the authorities for
crime in New Jersey. In the days Of
the early settlement Of the State there
were three punishments-the stocks
for the least offenses against the law,
whipping for the more serious, aud
death for the important grades. Adj
vancing time limited the inhiction of
death to the murderers, and in 1929
whipping was to be administered only
10 aggravated cases of petty larcency,
while the stocks had been relegaled
to museums. Whipping was inflicted
only occasionally and was always done
in public. "Well laid on was al
ways the direction of the Court, and
it was followed so closely that the
thieving vagrants usually had an ad-
mixture Of blood and dirt on their
backs which was not all pleasant to
observe.-Press.

TRADE continues TO sncroach on fash

The recent storm in Great Britain
has been the most violent experienced
in many years. 1t was accompanied
by a multitude of maritime disasters,
among others the sinking of French
vessel of Great Yarmouth, with the
loss of twenty lives and two other
wrecks, with the loss of eight and ten

WHO LIKE THEM AS FOOD.
The following startling news appears
in the Washington Republican, OF oaLur-
day. II will be recoliected that at the
time Buchanan was inaugurated large
number Of persons were poisoned at q
certain prominent v Washington hotel.
The winter Immediately preceding the
Inauguration was All unusually hard ono.
The proprietor OF the hotel, / o plea his
guests, had procured, as stated, all the
quail in The surrounding country.
These birds had been starved TO such
an extent that they were compelled to
feed upon poisonous berries aud leaves
until their flesh became thoroughly per-
meated with the poison. A thing almost
certain 10 produce either death or ire
mediable disease in the system is the pre-
sent eating of quail. The birds have been
starved for weeks, and are now feeding
upon such berries and buds as make
their fl .sh p iisonous. The deep SHOWS
in the county prevent the birds trom re-
ceivlng their usual sustenance from seed
and the sands or small gravel which
assist Ia digesting and assimiIating the
same, and consequently they are driven
to those modes OF sustaining life which
while they may be useful 20 themselves
for the time being rendered their flesh
highly injurious ~ human beings as an
article OF food.

For neuralgia in the face, or
other acute suffering elsewhere, the
following remedy has been tried
with good effect Cut thick slice
of bread all across the loaf-fresh
bread is best. Soak one side for a
minute in boiling water, and rapidly
sprinkle cayenne pepper over the
hot side. Apply while still smok-
ing hot to the painful surface. The
bread retains the heat long enough
for the cayenne pepper to begin 10
act, and cayenne does not affect del
icate skins as mustard does. 1t acts
as rubefacient, but not as a blister.
Another excellent remedy for con-
gestlon from cold is to apply a poul-
tice of fiaxseed meal and CAYENNE
pepper. BY keeping a bit of oilsilk
on the outside of the poultice cloth
it with will retain both heat and
moisture for long time.

Buying a Wife.
now A GERMAN IMMIGRANT CHANGED
PARTNERS"

HOW A GERMAN IMMIGRANT CHANGED
PARTNERS"
A German woman applied to the
New York commissioners of Emigra-
tion last week with the request that
her husband, Mr.. Lauter, who, she said,
was living somewhere in that city with
another woman, be found and COM
PEELED to support her. She said that her
hOmewas III Berlin and that until about
eight months ago she had lived hap
PLY with her husband, who owned a
small hotel in that city. Last sum-
mer,h disappeared and she learned that
he had elop to America with the
wife of one of his neighbors, named
Hermann. The later, SIZE said, had
parted voluntarily with his wife, hav-
ing received 1000 marks in payment
for her from Lauter. Mrs. Lauter had
come to America after her husband
and was without means of support.
The case was put into the hands of
officer Peter Qooden, " no succeeded in,
finding Lauter had his companion at a
res aurant at No. "a Lispenatd street,
which they had recently fought. The
runaway husband was arrested, and ON
"Wednesday he was required by Justice
Smith at the Jefferson Market Police
Court, TO allow his wife 50 week.
THE logic of the apology advanc.
ed for the Republicans of the House
who voted for what they assumed to
know is an impractIcable funding
bill is somewhat startling. The
Democrats are assumed to be set
OF ignoramuses not capable of deal
ing with the subject, and few Re-
publicans vote with them for a bad
bill so that it can go to the Senate
and there be shaped into measure
OF unadultered wisdom. The Sem
ate cannot originate funding bill,
but the House can send them one
which can be amended to the extent
OF making good one in the place
OF one that is good for nothing, and
when it gets back to the House
that body having been enlightened
by their superiors may adopt their
suggestions. Suppose, however, the
majority in the Senate should prove
such ignoramuses as these sapient
Republican congressman take the
majority of the House to be and
should pass the bill just as it is ?
Would this not place them in
somewhat embarrassing position ?
They would find themselves on rec
ord in favor of a bill which they
pretend to believe to be unwise and
dangerous. These over-smart Re
publicans had better content them
selves with voting for themselves
and not for the Senate.-Balt. Ga
