Religion Taught by Cards,

An Eastern religious paper speaks Of
a case where o pious soldier used a
common pack Of playing cards to re-
mind him Of the teachings Of religion
and some of the leading incidents Of the
Gospel. He said he learned to use
them thus while Oh the march and he
had access neither to Bible nor Prayer
Book. The ace, as he explained it, re-
minded him that there was only one
God, the del,ce Of the Father and tho
Son, and tho tray Of the Blessed Trinity.
The four-spot reminded him Of the four
svangelists, and the fiva Of the parable
OF the ten virgins, five Of whom were
wise and i've foolish, The six-spot sug-
gested that ii was in six days that
the Lord made the world; and the seven
that on the seventh day God rested and
was refreshed. The eight brought to
mind the eight righteous persons who
were saved In the ark; the nine, the nine
ierers who were oleansed, and the ten
the ten commandments OF the Decalogue.
The King Card reminded him Of God as
tho King Of Kings, the Qneon OF the
Queen of sheba, aud the Knave OF Judas
Iscariot, who betrayed Jesus. He added
that his pack Of cards served him for an
aIEhauno - wall as Bible and q Book Of
Common Prayer. for there were 6fty-two

Prof. Parkinson, of the State Uni
versity, delivered a most LOGICAL and
convincing free trade lecture in the
assembly chamber at Madison on
Thursday evening of last week.
That veteran free trader Hon. NJ. NJ.
Strong presided. When the meet
ing was declared dismissed, Mr..
Hinton, of Milwaukee, then arose
and with the utmost presumption
commanded silence, and addressed
the audience for nearly two hours,
in the interests of protection,
striving to make his hearers believe
that high protective tariff always
brought good times, and low tariff
the reverse. A republican senator,
who is not very warm friend of
protected monopolists, afterwards re-
marked III speaking of this point:
& How was it that the country had
hard times in 1878, under a high
protective TARIFF" Mr.. Hinton also
made uncalled for and personal
illusions, and also reflected upon
the State University and University
farm, which slurs were promptly
denied by Mr.. Clinton Babbitt, Sec
rotary of the State Agricultural So
ciety.

A lecture on the tariff question by
Prof. John B. Parkinson OF the State
University, on Thursday evening at
tracted a large audience, and pro-
voked animated discussion. Park
inson is radical free-trader, and as
professor of political economy in the
University has golden opportunities,
which it is thought he fully inn
proves, to impress his views upon
the students in that institution. To
this is ascribed by many the pre-
dominance of free-trade and other
semi-Democratic tendencies noticed
among the University students Of
late.-Madison correspondent of the
Tribune.
If the writer of the above para
graph was well informed he would
be aware that it is very general
failing of college professors to inn
press free-trade views upon students.
This proclivity is not confined to
professors of democratic tendencies,
but many staunch republican profess
sors are also given to it. They teach
free-trade as they do others doc
trines which are generally accepted
by learned men. The schools and
colleges of the country will ulti-
mately make the United States
free-trade nation in spite of selfish
interests and trimming politicians.

FRENcHIFlED AMERICAN HISTORY.

A particular Interesting dramatic
event has just occurred at Paris in
the production Of four-act play,
lie Nouveau Monde" concerning
the American Evolution. 1t is a
prize play, and vas selected from a
large number that had been offered
in a competition opened in 1875 in
honor of the United States centen-
NAL celebration. This, the success
full piece, was written by Comte Vii
liers de l'Isie Adam, aud while it is
said to exhibit clear evidence of tai
ent. it will chiefly interest Americans,
if we are to Judge the summary of
its plot by the ignorance which the
author shows Of the historical facts
of that great Struggle. For instance,
Washington IS represented as driv-
ing the English out of Virginia with
the help of the French, of course) at
the outbreak of the contest, and
thereupon beng proclaimed leader;
then he drives the British gradual
ly to Rhode Island, where they have
another battle; and finally there is
a terrible fight in the streets of Bos-
ton on the morning. of July 4, 1776,
which resultsin the immediate pro-
clamation thre of the independence
of the United States. Since Victor
Hugo and dher members of the
French academy fixed on this as the
best Of the enc hundred plays Of
fered in competition the other ninty-
nine must hsve contained some re-
markable fats regarding the birth
of this county.-Chicago Times.

Some of our citizens had a few
leisure moments to spare and
thought they would see how many
widows and widowers there was in
our village. They were greatly
alarmed when finding thirty-two
widows and three widowers. There
is surely a chance for widowers to
make a strike here; and they also
looked up how many old bachelors
and old maids the village held.
They found two old bachelors and
no old maids. Now, if our sister
towns have couple of good looking
old maids, one who understands
Frightening up jewelry, and one who
understands taking care of chickens
