Some Things Money Can't Buy.



Some boys and girls have an idea that
money can do almost anything, but this
is q mistake. Money, il is true, can do
q great deal, but il cannot do everything.
| could name YOU a thousand things it
cannot buy. twas meant for good, and
it is a good thing to have, but all this
depends on how il is used. Ii used
wrongly, it is an injury instead of a
benefit. Beyond all doubt, however,
there are many things better than 1t is,
and which it cannot purchase, no matter
how much we may have Of it.
Ii man has not good education, all
his money cannot buy it for him. He
can scarcely ever make up his wasted
opportunities. He may say, as | have
heard men say: 81 would give all ]
have If i only had good education and
a well trained mind, but he will say il
in vain. His money alone cannot OBJ
tain it.
Neither will wealth itself give man
or woman good manners. Nothing,
next to good health is of more impor-
tancc than easy, graceful, self-possessed
manners. But they can't be had for
mere money.
A man who is what is called "shoddy,"
who has no taste and correct manners,
will never buy them, though he would,
no doubt, like them. They are nowhere
for sale. You might as well try to buy
the sky, the clouds or sunbeains.
Money can not purchase a good con-
science. Ii n poor man, or boy, or n
girl-any one-has a clear conscience,
that gives Oft tone like sound bell
when touched with tho hammer, then
be sure he is vastly richer than the mil
lionaire who does not possess such u
conscience. Good principles are better
than gold. All the gold Of Golconda
couldn't buy them for man who hasn't
them already.

The Value of English Race Horses.


tSt. James Uazette.l
Although of the races which have
been run for this season there were
forty.one worth 81 900 or upward, as
compared TO only thirty-six last season,
there has been very marked falling off
in the value Of the principal stakes.
The most valuable prize was the 1000
guineas, worth only $4,000 to the win
ner, as against GO, 100 last year; while
tho Derby, which was worth f7,025 in
1879, has been gradually falling of,
until last year It was worth only f4,775.
This may be due to the creation OF n
race called the EPSON Grand Prize,
which has come into existence within the
last two year, and ii is almost as valuable
as the Derby itself; but there is no such
explanation to account for the falling
off in the st. Leger, which, worth
f6, 525 in 1879, has gradually declined
to e., 500, or nearly so per cent The
value of the Oaks, the Middle Park
Plate, and tho 900 gnineas, has in a
like manner declined in very marked
degree. and the same may be said OF the
Prince Of Wales Stakes, the Gold Cup,
the Hardwick Stakes, and other races ut
Ascot-which receive just as much in
the way Of "added money" as before.
This shows that the falling off must be
attributed to the Indifference Of owners
Of horses, who, with so many new races
spripging into existence, are loath to
contract liabilities in all the great prizes
of che season. The race which has in
creased in value more than any other is
tho Mancheater Cup. but that is because
the added money has been doubled
within the last three years; and it is
one of the seven prizes run for the last
season worth between two aud three
thousand pounds. The 1000 guineas
was the only race worth $4,000; the
Derby and the st. Leger were worth
"a, us and "a, 500; the EPSON Grand
Prize, the Oaks, and the Middle Park
Plate were worth 1912, 1895 and
f3,0l5; while 20 Others ranged In value
from 900 to 1000 pounds, and 40 from
500 to 900 pounds.

Not on the Surface.


Mr.. Pilpott, writing from Iowa, says
that the tariff question in that State
has the peculiarly that its agitation
does not show ON the surface, as it is
profoundest among the common people,
and is particularly noticeable among the
agricultural classes. This will be found
true throughout the country before the
close of this decade. There is far more
depth and earnestness OF thought on the
question than is made manifest in either
the public press or in Congressional
halls, and to full realization of this
fact the protection theorists will awake
with suddenuess in the not far distant
future.

a Vienna chemist has made new
glass, which seems to be an interesting
production. Its composition is not given,
but it is said to contain neither slick,
potash, soda, lime, nor borax. 1t is
completely insoluble in water, and is not
affected by fuoric acid, but hydrochloric
and yitric acids corrode it. When fused
it adheres to iron, bronze and zince, and
would probably form a valuable protect
