GAMBLING ON TIME

A lot OF merchant travellers in New
York were watching the time ball
about noon one day with their watch
es in their hands, betting as to when
it would drop.
"l've got a watch that never fails
me-" said one, ''and I've n dollar
that says it will drop in four minutes
and half"
Done" says another; my watch
says six minutes, and her.s my dollar
on yours
Both of You are off: :" chinned in
another. I've got the regulator,
and she says the ball goes down in five
minutes
"Ive got watch and 50 which says
she will 80 down in three minutes and
II half, put in nice little Broadway
fellow.
Here's fiver that says she will go
down in three minutes" sang out a
Claain trav.ler in high collar.
"Ah, gentlemen" interrupted a
new man, joining the gang, betting
on the ball, ell. Well, | don't bet
usually. but I've got $50 in nay mis-
sionary pocket that was going to pay
my pcw rent with, but il | hear no
objections I'll put it up against a like
amount that she doscn't drop in 10
ainutes, and he pulled on; an old
tin watch with a gato-hiuge case on it,
and looked into its dirty face in IL ten,
der, loving way.
TIe boys gave him the laugh,
and covered his pile, and then they
all stood and watched the ball with
their timepiecss in their hands Onc,
two, three four, five six. seven.

still remained up.

A BAD INVESTMENT.

There goes man who has the repu-
tation of being a sharp. clsar-headed
iinancier He never makes a mistake
in his investments, SO it is said. lie
looks into the nature Of securities offer
ed him with the greatest care, and he
never looses dollar. lie goes into
no speculation unless he is not only
certain. Yet, sharp, shrewd, far
sighted as he may be, he is at this
moMent going TO make an Investment
where he is sure to lose every dollar
he invests, besides damaging himself
in way not measurable in dollars Oh
cents. He is going into a saloon to
invest in something which his own
good sense tell him only pay divi-
dends of misery. Why doesn't he ap-
ply his cool-headed methods Of busi-
ness to this very important matterl
Why doesn't he ask himself the ques-
ton, How is this going to pay me 2
What kind of. security am ! taking {!
Am involving myself in any liabili-
ties which are likely to trouble me
hereafter" If he puts these business
like question to himself honestly, the
answer will be-must be-returned,
ITS a bad investment, don't touch it,
1t was never known TO make any
dividends but trouble, ruin and dis
grare Keep away from it, it isn't
business"
So we say to the youEg man who
fancies hims>lf sharp in business mat
ters, every nickel you invest in liquor
is dollars worth OF evidences that
you lack business sense. Would you
purchase an article of food which you
knew was tainted and which would
ruin your health and bring misery to
your family
No, il wouldn't be business; il
wouldn't pay. Very good then, go on
drinking il you will, but stop boast.

A GREAT BUILDING BOOM.

This is going to be great year for
Chicago. In no previous year of its
history has there been SO marked an
era of business prosperity and material
advancement as this year promises TO
show. The population of the city is
growing at marvellous rate-how
much nobody can estimate with rea-
sonable exactness, save by the great
demand for homes in which to shell
ter the increasing multitude. Ar
chitects and builders say that no mat
ter how much they may increase the
number of houses they are all taken
and there is yet further demand. But
IL is in the matter of business property
that Chicago this year promises TO
outdo herslf. The building depart
ment of the city government reports
that never before was there SO much
money going into stupendous business
structures in one season. The depart
ment is issuing permits almost daily for
edifices to cost from 500, 600 to II 900
OOO,a and by the close of theyear numer-
Gus lots in the neighborhood of the new
board of trade building will be covered
with these costly piles. Already that re
gion is a marvel The new board
building itself is wonder. The great
Armour-Kent building of twelve sto-
ries adjoining it, upon which work is
to begin at oncn, will be one Of the
most superb structures in the city.
Permits have been issued to erect an
other great pile ia the corner of La
Sale and Adams, and several iusur-
ance companies have now in course OF
construction buildings from nine TO
twelve stories high. The great Pull
man building is approaching com
pletion, and will be II landmark of
the city and II wonder TO the conven.
ton people who will hol1 meetings
under its shadow. Another permit has
just been issued for the new grand
opera house, to cost 500, 900.
All these things point an3w to the
marvellous growth and prosperity OF
this wonderful western metropolis
Millions are going into the improve
mcnts of real estate. l.llions more In
TO the expansion ond deytlopement oG
the city'a comMerce, and untold mil
ions more are ready to leap into the
business vortex rs til, occasion OFFS

The Arthur Doctrine.

The closing message of President Ar.
thurs term is a document of marked
ability. Partisan in only few respects,
1t is wise and statesmanlike in most
He endorses, of course, the financial pol.
icy of the Republican party, and except
in matter of fove-taxation and the over
stimulation of home industries by Pro-
lection. there are few thinking men
who will deny the soundness of that
policy. But the most distinctive feat
ure of the message is the recommended
ton which may go into American his
tory as the Arthur doctrine. finding
place as distinctive as the doctrine of
Monroe. In clearly-cut, concise lam
guage he outlines commercial policy
towards the nations of the American
continents which is long step in adj
vance of the policy of his party. He
makes ples for unrestricted commerce,
at least among Americans, from Green
land to Patagonia, and suggests plan
for bringing it about, at least as much
his own original idea as the "Ameri-
can policy" was the original idea of
Mr.. Clay. Mr.. Clay's idea was to de-
velope the manufactures of single
country of America at the expense
not only of the rest of the world, but of
nine-tenths of that single country. Mr..
Arthur's idea is to develope the manu-
factu-es, tile agriculture, the commerce
of the United State and the two Amer
icas, to restore the American flag to
the seas, whence it has been driven by
the ideas of Clay, and to solidify the
New World by bond of common in
terest. No pulley ever marked out is
so truly, SO distinctively American. 1t
does not reach the Jeffersonian idea of;
Free Trade in American Bottoms,"
but it is no metaphor to say that it
bursts the bonds of Clay. 1t is not an
Utopian but an eminertly practical
idea. Still it is to be feared that it is
an idea for America in the Twentieth
century rather than in the Nineteenth.
One immediate result and the one on
which Mr.. Arthur is to be congratulate.

Freedom.
TENNYsoN's NEW POEM.

o thou so fair in summers gone,
While yet tn, fresh and virgin soul
Inform'd the column'd Parthenon-
The glittering capitol;
So fair i'm southern sunshine bathed,
But scarce of such majestic mien
As here with forehead yapor-swathed
In meadows ever green;
For thou-when Athens reign'd and Rome
Thy glorious eyes were dimm'd with pain
To mark in many freeman's home
The slave, the scourge, the chain;
o follower of the vision, still
In motion to the distant gleam,
Howe'er blind force and brainless will
May jar thy golden dream.
Who, like great nature wouldst not mar
By changes all too fierce and fast
This order of our human star,
This heritage of the past;
o scorner of the party cry
That wanders from the public good,
Thou-when the nations rear on high
Their idol smeared with blood,
And when they roll their idol down
OF saner worship sanely proud,
Thou leather of the lawless crown
As of the lawless crowd;
How long thine ever growing mind
Hath still'd the blast and strewn the wave,
Though some of late would raise wind
To sing thee to thy grave,
Men loud against all forms of power
Unfurnished brows, ,tempestuous tongues,
Expecting oil things In an hour
Brass mouths and iron lungs.
