 'De odder ebenin' I heard an orator say dat dis was de aige of wisdom, re- marked Brother Gardner, as the meet ing opened in perfect harmony. "Let us analyze de assertion an see what it am made of.
 "Has dar eber bin an aige when de records showed more commercial fail ures2
 "Has dar eber bin an aige when statesmen made more foolish speeches
 ."Has dar eber bin an aige when de people displayed more reckless extrava- gance2 For ebery one man workin' on a salary who saves dollar a week twenty am libin' beyand what dey airn.
 "Has dar eber bin an aige when mur- der, robbery, embezzlement, an de od- der crimes on de calendar, war mo heard of? It am an aige in which you may doubt your kindest naybur and best friend.
 "Has dar eber bin an aige in which reckless speculashun, gross mismanage- ment. corrupshun in high an low places, conspiracy to defraud, queer decishuns by courts, queer ackshuns by Congressman, an Q gineral disregard of honor an honesty war so plain befo' de eyes of de people?
 "De aige of wisdom-yum
 "An' dat same orator asserted dat de next ginerashun would solve all scien- tific problems, make great advances in invenshuns, control de elements an live on fur higher plane. Let us see.
 ''Take de present ginerashun, an fur ebery one perfeckly healthy man I'll fin you nine who am ailin'. De majority smoke, chew, drink, keep unreasonable hours an prepar' themselves fur de grave at fifty. Consumption. fiber complaint, dyspepsia, kidney disease, neuralgia, rheumatism an scrofula am ebery-day complaints. Drunkenness, gluttony an immortality no longer excite surprise. Oats de seed fur plantin' de next gin- erashun.
 "Fin' me one perfeckly healthy wo- man an I'll fin you fifty who am ailin'. Take boaf sides of de longest square in Detroit, or any odder American city, an it won't average two healthy women, no matter how clusly de houses am built. Neuralgia, rheumatism, weak backs, near-sightedness, terrible headaches an cancers, tumors and dozen odder ail- ments am keepin' de doctahs busy. Paint, powder, thin shoes, thin clothes, reckless exposure an a total disregard of common sense in eberyfng am de cause. Oats de groun' in which to SOW de wheat
 "De nex' ginerashun in dis kentry will need to double up our idiot an insane asylums. State prisons an jails will need to be enlarged. Honesty an mor- ality will be strangers in de land, an friendship will have mighty lonesome time. De seed an de groun' am ready, an de crop will come in due time. I say to you dat dis am de open doah to de black man. Lib soberly, sensibly an widout abuse. Lib morally an hon. estly. Consult your health in your dress an diet. Avoid whatever will de- grade you morally an iniure you physi- cally, an de second ginerashun from dis will make de laws fur de white man an run his kentry. De one am deteriorat- ing, de odder am creepin' up. De black man has de bowers in his hand"

Why Labor and Capital Can't Unite.

The coming question is, how to divide the profits fairly between labor and capital and give each their proper share. Unfortunately, labor cannot share losses. If $50,0O0 is made one year, labor steps in for its share. If the same is lost next year, capital must sus tain the loss, as labor spent what it made the previous year and cannot re- fund what it has not got. When labor gets forehanded enough to make a fair deal on losses as we'll as profits, does not labor then become capitalist? Or, how much must man be worth before he can be known as capitalistH Where ls tho dividing Inc f--Aas of SkeeI

NOBLESSE OBLIGE.
BY CARLoTTA PERRY.

If am weak and you are strong,
 Why then, why then, To you the braver deeds belong;
 And so, again, If you have gifts and have none, If have shade and you have sun, 'Tis yours with freer hand to give, 'Tis yours with traer grace to live, Than I, who giftless, sunless, stand, With barren life and hand. We do not ask the little brook
 To turn the wheel; Unto the larger stream we look.
 The strength of steel We do not ask from silken bands, Nor heart of oaks in willow ssends, s-s4 We do not ask the wren to go # Up to the heights the eagles know; Nor yet expect the lark's clear note From out the dove's dumb throat. 'Tis wisdom's law, the perfect code, By love inspired; Of him on whom much is bestowed
 Is much required. The tuneful throat is bid to sing, The oak must reign the forests king; The rushing stream the wheel must move, The beaten steel its strength must prove 'Tis given unto the eagles eyes To face the midday skies.

ORIGIN OF THE WHITE MAN.-There may
be remains of Stone Age whites, but there
ara no certain remains of white savages Ola
low order We may we'll doubt if there
were ever any white savages; 1t IS more
likely that the white men were developed
late in the history of the world from ances-
tors already far on in civilization; IN lac,
that this civilization, with Its improved sup
NV of food, its better housing ana clotnlnS
its higher intellectually, was one main lac
tor N the development of the white type.
Her. however, it must be remembered that
there is not white race In the sense IN
which there is Carib race or an Andaman
race. 1t includes several race types, ana
even the same language, such as Eogish or
German, may be spoken by men as olohoe
as Danes or as dark as SiciIiaIs. Inc laif-
haired Scandinavian type has sometnIng u
the d-fniteness of true race; but as one
travels south there appear, not Weii-oehne $,
sub. races but darkeuing graduation, OF be"li.
deriup complexity. The most reasonable
at,emp, TO solve this intricate problem -
Prof. Huxlry's view that the white race IS
made up of fair whites of the Northern ana
Scandinavian types, and dark whites WHO
are the results of ages OF mixture DetWeen
the fair whites aud the darker NATIONS
though it is perhaps hardly prudent to Inn
it these dark ancestors to one variety as ne
does. IF now we cannot trace the white
man down to the low level of primitive saw
aaery. neither can we assign to him the
great upward movement by which the bar
barian passed into civilization. 1t is not to
the Aryan of Persia nor to the Semitic OF
syria that the art of writing belongs which
brought on the new era of culture.-E. b.
