THE FUTURE The way In which a
man lives has great deal to do with
his views for the future. for there are
conditions of the body where there is
morbid sensibility of nerve, and illness
renders man sensitive to fear. 1t is
quite In vain to talk to a man suffering
from cerebral morbidity of the folly of
fear and the necessity Of diminishing

The French are prosecuting the war
upon Tunis with vigor, although at home
they deny that there is purpose of an
nexation. Dispatches received at Paris
announced that General Ritter dislodged
the Kroumirs from their positions at
Damebella and Hadeba on the 18th,
driving them back toward the Oued-Dje-

care. Men get out of order by excessive
industry, from steady watch, from care,
and so render morbid the whole nervous
system, and for the time being will draw
fear from the future. The remedy for
such men is neither Bible, nor prayer
book. nor prayer, and there is no need
to call in the minister. They need the
doctor more than the minister, unless
the minister is doctor as we'll, and all
doctors should be ministers. All ex-
cesses should be avoided. 1t is just as
dangerous to think too much about relig-
ion as to think too much of any other
subject. Too much is too much of any,
thing.
The deadlock in the Senate is practi-
cally broken, end in the executive session
already begun the Senate will probably
transact the accumulated business in the
following order: First, The reference OF
nominations now on the table to appro-
pirate committees second, the consid-
Grafton of the pending treaties. and,
third, the consideration of all nominal
tions heretofore or hereafter reported
from the Senate committees which re-
spectively are not objected to by one
republican Senator from the state to
which the Office appertains, or from
which, in the case of National or Ter
ritorial appointment, the nominee is tc
be appointed. AS soon as the uncontested
cases are disposed of, it is to be deter
mined in caucus what additional bust
ness shall be considered.
