Standing Treat.

No American custom causes more gen.
eral surprise and amusement among
travelling foreigners than that which is
known in our saloons as creating -
consisting in the entertainment of two
or more with refreshment, for which one
volunteers to pay. It is pure American
ism all over the republic it is as com
mon as in Europe it is unknown. There
is probably no minute of day in the
year when two or three hundred citizens
of any large city are not guzzling some
thing stronger than water at somebody
else's expense.
The casual meeting of two men who
have never exchanged word together is
a signal for both to instantly exclaim
"Come, let's have something p and for
both to dive down into the nearest sub
terranean cavity below the sidewalk.
The one who spoke first always insists
upon paying the shot THE word
"shot" being metaphorical reference
to The deadly character of the contents
usually taken into the stomach. If two
friends meet, the regular thing to say
first is, "Let's drink to old times" and
the resident must invariably :" treat the
stranger.
If there is anything more absurd than
the habit. we are unable to put our fin
ger upon it. Men do not always treat"
each other to car tickets because they
happen to meet on the same seat. We
never saw man take out his pocket

ance and say: "Ah, George, delighted
4o 4 M lob cfo %
my treat p Do men have mania for
paying each others bills? And is
drinking together more "social' than
eating together or sleeping together?
A traveller may go all over the con-
tinent of Europe, of Asia, and of Africa,
without seeing any man except a Yam
kee offer to &c treat, and the Frenchmen
are quite social enough, but when they
turn into cafe to sip their wine or
branded coffee together, each man pays
for his own. When two Germans long
separated meet, they will be very likely
to embrace aud then turn into an ada
cent beer cellar, sit down and drink and
eat pretzels and chat, but when they
part again each man settles his score
Independently. So in Italy. The
Italians are probably merry and gener-
Gus, but each man pays for his own
wine, macaroni and cigars. They
would as soon think of transferring each
other their washerwoman's bills.
The preposterous fashion of " treat
ing" is responsible for the terrible
drunkenness in America. There would
be little need of temperance societies
and little work for Good Templars if
this pernicious and insidious habit was
abolished. 1t is, taken all in all, the
most ridiculous, the most unreasonable
and the most pestiIent custom that ever
laid its tyrannical hand on civilization.

Archimedes' Lever.

The famous Greek philosopher, Archi-
modes was the author of the apothegm,
"Give me lever long enough and a
prop strong enough and | will move the
world" The saying arose from his
knowledge of the possible effects of ma
chinery; and, however much it might
astonish Greek of his day, would now
be readily admitted to be as theoretically
possible as it is practically impossible !;
for in the words Of DIR. Arnott, Archi-
modes would have required to move
with the velocity of cannon bali for
millions of years to alter the position of
the earth by small part of ali inch.
This feat of Archimedes is, in mathe-
NAUTICAL truth, performed by every man
who leaps from the ground, for he kicks
the world away from him whenever he
rises, and attracts it again when he
falls"

THE NUMBER OF FARMS.
AS Shown by "a Census Bulletin fol
the Last Four Decades,

AS Shown by u Census Bulletin for
the Last Four Decades.
A bulletin from the Census Office gives the
number of farms in the United States in che
years 1880, 1870, 1860 and 1850, together with
statement of the rate per cent. of increase from
1870 to 1880. The great increase in the North
ern, Western and Pacific States aud Territories
is explained by the rapid settlement of those
regions during the past decade, and an increase
in the Southern States is accounted for by the
subdivision of the large plantations of ten and
twenty wears ago. The total number of farms
in the United States in 1870 was 2, $50 935, and
in 1889 4, ZOOS, 907 an increase of 81 per cent.
The State OF Ohio is credit I'd with 1885, 953 farms
in 1870 while in 1880 there were 247, l89, an in-
crease of 26 per cent. Kentucky shows q re-
markable increase of Al per cent. in the last ten
years having total of 118, 422 i'll 1870 and
l66 453 IN 1880. Indiana has increased 20 per
cent, showing total of 1874, 013 farms in 1889,
against 161 289 in 1870. Tennessee has in
creased the number of her farms 40 per cent.
in this time having total of 165, $50 at the
last census. The largest increase is in Dakota,
where the enormous gain of ola per cent. IS
given Nebraska is next to Dakota, with an
increase of 415 per cent. The New England
States being but little subject to changes, show
the smallest increase Maine, New Fl tmpshire
and Vermont having increased the number of
their farms 8, 9 and 5 per cent, respectively.
Massachusetts is credited with an increase of
IS per cent, but this figure is disputed, owing
to the defective census of 1870 in that State.

The resolution, of course, Is meaning

IS Gentlemen Georges idea of states-
manship. Equally plain and sincere is
the resolution relating to the currency:
Resolsed, That stability in the value of money
is primary requisite to industrial and cum
mercial prosperity. This can only be secured
bv maintaining both gold and silver as Tncnav,
as provided by the constitution, and sub jecting
the issue and regulation of paper money toes
tablIshed principles which viii prevent h1s.uA-
ton in The value Of the currency.
Was it this I" stability in the value of
money" that Mr.. Pendleton advocated
in 1867 and 1865. when he urged the
payment of the bonds in greenbacks ?
He did not seem to be specially anxious
then to "prevent fluctuations in the
value of currency" or to have any les
tablished principles. The resolutions
In opposition to monopolies and sumptu-
airy legislation were merely pro lorna,
and meant nothing. The latter was not
as high bid for the disaffected German
vote as was expected, and Pendleton at
the ratification meeting spoilt its intend
ed effect by saying: "The PARTY has
planted itself right upon the question
that to-day agitates the people of Ohio
Il mean the traffic in Intoxicating
liquors and it has declared, while it is
In favor of its taxation and its reglila-
ton, that it is in favor also of maintain
ing the old standard of the Democratic
party of opposition to all laws that are
merely sumptuary and meddlesome with
our neighbours" Taxation and legisla-
ton are; to the minds of the Ohio sa-
loonkeepers, merely forms of sumptuary
legislation. They will not thank Mr..
Pendleton for this deliversnce.
The dissensions in the ranks of the
Democrats of Ohio must rebound great
~ to the advantage of the Republicans.
The Young Democrats had their inning
asst year, and they were defeated through
the apathy or treachery of the "moss
backs" The "moss backs have carried
everything before them in the conven-
tion this year; and now is the golden OPP
portunity of the Youngsters to have
their revenge. Whether Cassie kills
Roderigo, or Roderigo kills Cassios either
way makes the gain of the Republicans.
1t would not be strange if the Demo-
cratic disaffection this year should more
than make good the Republican losses
on account of the coercive teetotal folly
of the party at Columbus last winter
