Swept into the Stream
ONE THOUSAND ACRES OF LAND AND Orig
SMART OF BEARs.n

ONE THOUSAND ACRES OF LAND AND FRIGHT
SMART OF BEARS"
On the deck of big Mississippi steamboat
stood an aged Southern planter. Indicating by
a sweep of his arm The waters the boat was pass
ing over, he said to passenger from the North
'When | was twelve years old killed my first
bear on q new plantation my father was then
cutting of forest that grew directly over the
waters of this bend. That was a mighty good
plantation, and there was right smart of bears
there, toe. But that one thousand acres of land
went into the Mississippi years ago"
1t is putting no strain upon the figure to say
that great forests of youthful hope, womanly
beauty and manly strength are swept in the
same way every year into the great, turbid tor
rent of disease and death. Yetit should not be
SO. That it is so is disgrace as well as a loss.
People are largely too careless or too stupid to
defend their own interests-the most precious of
which is health. That gone, all is gone. Disease
is simple, but to recklessness or Ignorance the
simplest things might as well be complex as n
proposition in COnic Sections. AS the huge
western rivers, which so often flood the cities
along their shores, arise in few mountain
springs so all our ailments can be traced to i'm
pure blood and small group of disordered or
gans.
The most effective and inclusive remedy for
disease is PARKER TONIC. 1t goes to the
sources Of pain and weakness. In response to
its action the liver, kidneys, stomach and heart
begin their work afresh, and disease il driven
out. The tonic is not, however, an intoxicart
but cures desire for strong drink. Have Won
dyspepsia, rheumatism, or troubles which have
refused to yield to other agents? Here is your
help.

CLEyELAND's LETTER TO Mrs. BEECH
ER.-This goody boyish personal de-
fence is the greatest curiosity thi.
remarkable political canvass has pro
duced. Its statement, language, and
style would do no credit to boy a
dozen years old. This letter to Mrs.
Beecher is q revelation of the man
Cleveland and of his smallness and
puerility. 1t is wretchedly weak at
tempt at deception, clumsy effort to
foil his offences. II was, though pur-
porting to be private letter, intended
for the public. Whoever reads it must
conclude that its temper is deceitful
and its statements and professions
hypocritical. In the eyes OF all men
this letter makes Cleveland contempt
ible, despicable, inexpressibly mean.
His letter is known by clouds of
witnesses of the mans immoral life
not alone in the past, but up TO a
recent time-to be a deliberate and
wilful lie.-Syracuse Journal.

The newspapers have had so much

''the smutty old tyrant at Washington
(meaning Lincoln) hurled out of polit-

Hendricks, twenty years ago, wanted
the Northwestern States to flock by

taken back.
Hendricks, twenty years ago, en-

war a failure, and wanted peace a

Hendricks voted against the Four

zenship on the freedmen and prohibit

When the tile is at its full it turns.
Our educational methods have been
growing in system and severity, if not in
perfection, for many years; and the de-
mands upon the pupil have constantly in
creased, until the necessities for grading
have become imperative, and the peculi-
arities of the individual are almost en-
tirely ignored. 1t would seem impossi-
BILE to carry this further, and any change
now must be in some other direction. At
this crisis one of the brightest and most
fearless of American writers comes for
ward with 4 strong argument against the
whole system, protest against the grad
ing and examining that takes so much of
the vitality out of the education we are
giving to the rising generation. Edward
Everett Hale, In the November number
of the North american ReUieU, makes
plea for ''Half-Time in Schools which
every parent and every school board
ought to consider seriously. The old
question, Where are we and where
drifting?" was never more forcibly sug-
gested than by anOthet article in the same
number. that in which Prof Gilman dis
cusses 1.-The African Problem" The
facts that he gives as to the increase of
the negroes in the United States, their
peculiar situation and disposition, and the
problem they viii force upon us in the
near future, call for the grayest consid-

Der are: woman as Political Factor"
by Judge Robert C. Pitman; Progress
in Naval Armament" by Hobart Pasha,
who thinks the United States govern
ment has been wise in~not constructing
costly navy; Friendship in Ancient
Poetry" by Principal j. c. Sharp;

E. L. Youmans; "Over-Illustration," by
