ABoUr GRAIN-Farmers who have
been holding back their wheat in the
hope that price will advance may find
some encouragement in the fact that
the Minneapolis Millers' Association
has been obliged to raise its bidding
price for wheat twice this week, the adj
vance amounting to. four cents bush
ell There is encouragement, 100, in a
report that the very large mil
have purchased all the wheat in Da-
kota and the Red River Valley, and
in another report, repeated several
times recently, that Wall street is
about to bull the wheat market in
order to increase business for the rail
roads and to silence the complaints Of
the Western farmers, who threaten
legislative reductions in railroad freight
rates. Should all the combinations be
effectively made. the Eastern farmers,
who have not already sold their crops
may reap some benefit from their
delay.

vERy many ofthe death announce
ments printed in New York and Phila-
delphia papers with notice Of funeral
have appended the word, 'please omit
flowers. The use Of flowers at funerals,
at first modest and suggestive Of ten
der regard, have became 9 lavish
display, made with an ostentation by
donors in appended cards, which has
become offensive to bereayed people.
The presentation often robs death Of its
solemn lesson ia such efforts at artistic
results that have no place where hearts
lay crushed by poignant grief Re-
fined and sensitive people have at
last revolted against all this overdone
sympathy. and now decline to have
their homes decorated when death
lis pail on their threshold.

For FROST BITTEN PEoPLE.-W We
cannot say whether the following
recipe is efficacious or otherwise. but
it will do no harm to remember it and
give it trial if occasion makes it ne.
cessary. 1t is from a correspondent
Of the New York World and reads as
follows: In the interest Of those who
are exposed to the terrible suffering
Of frost-bite and consequent chilblians.
/ ask You to publish this, the most
effective remedy which can be useed.
AS soon as possible procure enought
oil Of peppermint to thoroughly
battle the part affected, and keep away
from the FIRE until the oil has drawn
out the frost. IF this is strickly fol-
lowed many lives and limbs can be-
saved and months Of suffering avoided.
Care should be taken 70 get the oil, as
the essence viii not have the desired

MONEY CAN'T Do IT.--There is
some things that money can't buy. 1t
can get you big house, and carriage,
and costly silks and furs, and jewels.
1t can bring you power, and power is
sweet. But it cannot buy you love !;
it cannot buy you happy home it
cannot buy content nor sunshine in the
heart it cannot buy peace with God !;
it cannot save your soul, nor that of
your child. Without these, what is
your money worth? With these, what
great difference does it make whether
you have money or not? The regene-
ration of a single child in your house,
hold is worth more than all the money
you have got, be it ever SO much.

WHERE IS MY BOY TO. MIGHTY

The familiar song written under the
above title has no doubt wrung many a
parents heart and has caused them in
deepest sorrow to ask of themselves the
question 80 full of import for veal or
woe. Parents as a rule are too much
Indifferent about the ways Of their chill
dren, until too late, habits Of maynard
ness and evil have become so fixed that
only by radical influence are they
turned from dangerous paths
Just how much Of these evil tenden-
cies parents are responsible for, is a
question only known to the Infinite
One, That they are to blame largely,
is quite evident III view Of the careless
and almost heartless indifference APP
parently SO at least-on the part Of
parents themselves. Children are al
lowed the greatest latitude, at night or
by day to roam about without check or
thought Of companions they are with.
They are contracting habits that would
horrify their parents, and too often
lead to wicked indulgences, when, alasl
it becomes too late to successfully coun-
teractthe development that has already
advanced to dangerous degree.
Where lies the responsibility and
how shall parents so control their
children as to leave them sufficient
freedom without chatting restraint
The responsibility is mainly with the
parents, though we are aware that no
line Of government can make a straight
tree from crab or thorn, though they
may be kept in reasonable sphere Of
correct habit. There are two great
faults with parental government; too
much and too little. The exercise Of
too much austere authority, brings
about q reflex indifference, and is soon
set at naugbt, while the easy going or
careless parent goes to the other ex-
treme, and bis child, free to 90 and
come is soon beyond all restraint, and
the two extremes alike are to be de-
plored as failures.
After years of experience with chill
dren in various conditions, and with
thoughtful study and observation,
we have settled down to a firm belief
that there is an mate principle in both
old and young that will respond if the
proper chord is touched by skillful
hand. Self government is a popular
idea, and in the family or in the school,
place the child on his honor. Pre-
sent to him the grandest Of all maxims,
'eThat he do to all others as he would
have others to do to him." Ask his
opinion what proper line of conduct
should be in others, and you have
gained point in conforming him to a
proper standard. Make companion
of your boys and girls talk with them
freely take part or help them in
their games and amusement provide
for their enjoyment at home; have
them invite their young friends to their
home let them feel no restraint, but
make it pleasant and your children will
not be likely to wander from home
to gain what is too often denied them
there Again. make confdents Of your
children and do not be too severe if
they overstep the proper boundary but,
in reproving do it kindly, gently, snd
let them know you are not angry.
A parent who well governs himself,
has best fitted himself to govern
others.

Tan end Of the world, it is predicted,
Will occur on the fourth Of next Janu-
airy, The prediction is based on the
words Of the prophet Haggai, who
although only d minor prophet, cannot
reasonably be suspected Of politicaa
bias or Interior speculative purposes.
IF Eaggai's surmise is correct, the
New Orleans Exhibition will be cut
Off at loss, the State Legislature
viii never meet, and the millennial
administration viii be inaugurated with
Less ceremony than even Richelieu
Robinson would wish. The Bartholdi
pedestal will continue unfinished, sew
eral thousand Democrats will bespared
the expenses incident to Cabinet posi-
tions, and the question viii remain I'M
solved whether the President-elect
shall proceed to the Capitol afoot Or
make state entry in bobtail car.
Il is possible, however that Haggai
erred, and this Is very bad season for
prophets of alI'kinds.

MANY newspaper readers neglect to
obtain from their favorite journals the
whole value Of the varied reading mat
ter presented to them every week. 1T
is mistake to suppose that the adver-
Using columns contain only temptations
70 draw money from pockets aud that
each advertisement is some sort of a
lrobber to stop you and demand all your
loose change OF late years business
has moved out of old ruts and no longer
awaits your coming to supply your need
when that need can no longer be put
of, and you are willing to pay any
price to fill your instant want. The
days past were the days OF large prof
its. The days present are the days of
great sales, small profits and frequent
turning over Of capital. To make
great sales it is necessary to make wares
pass quickly from manufacturer to
consumer. The great merchants Of
the day recognize this fact and their
advertisements are written with this
end in view. Their news is fresh daily,
their bargains come and depart daily,
and the purchaser, who is alive to seize
the opportunities and reap the advan-
tagcs, must keep up to this daily ebb
and flow. Advertisements are more
truthful than formerly, are more valu-
able than, ever, and by many are scan
ned as eagerly as other news ofthe day.

Iong-drawn work and worry
Of tedious 'S4.
The year has been pecu-
liar. There's instruction to
be got from its flight. Let's
look for it.
To begin with, there was
no sign Of extraordinary
depression a year ago; but
the pace of general trade
was visibly slow. Anticipat-
ing some decline in prices
we sold enormously in Janu-
airy at whatever things would
bring, some without profit,
some at a rate little short of
the comical.
Having sold we bought as
freely. and gained a season.
We sold what belonged to the
hurrying winter, and bought
what belonged to the coming
spring. The hardness Of
selling made buying easy;
and again we sold in a way
to keep trade moving. Sum.
mer found US with trade en-
larged though profits di-
minished.
Again we had our choice,
to 20 on or slacken pace.
The times were still more
critical. Merchants were
falling; goods were falling;
buyers Of all sorts TAX
ing alarm, cconomizing, buy
ing less, though at advanta-
geous prices. Again we
overran Europe. But the
sword of Damocles was
hanging over us. We
bought with caution and
made your money go as far
as we could.
Your money we say ad-
visedly. Yons' money at
last has paid the bills.
We need not go over the
tale of the last half year.
In the midst Of your Christ
mas revel you scarcely care
to stop to weigh our share in
bringing about the present
abundance. But what we
have done is SO apart from
the usual course of business
that we are disposed to think
It over; and, because our
future concerns you about
as much as ourselves, and
because we look to you for
it, we are doing a part Of
our thinking aloud.
The year that is past has
been a year of hardship in
general; but for us, on the
whole, a year of success.
September was the first
month in which our sales
ever fell short of the sales
Of the previous year. Oc-
tober and November were
losing months. December
is evidently going to turn out
a gain. And, so little the
autumn losses were, the year
on the whole is a gain.
Every one of you almost
says to himself Il have spent
less money this year; how
can Wanamaker have pos
sibly sold more goods than
ever before?" The ques-
ton is worth our answer ;
and our answer shall be
worth your hearing.
More people have come.
The fall in goods and the
fall in buying are more than
made good by the number
of buyers. The number Of
buyers, of course. depends
on what we give for a dollar,
We have given more than
ever; and so more buyers
have come. Besides, the
natural result Of our liberal
policy is to increase the area
Of trade. Why shouldn't
our trade increase, ever
though money go up ane
goods go DOWN.
What next?
Just now a little rest. VIZ
need it. Our faithful people
need it. The time invites t
rest. But shortly a new
year begins. We've got <
consider how to begin it
That is what we are thinking
about.
Are the times any easier
Is money easier to get? Arr
there people still within trad
ing distance to win? l
there a better way to vii
than by money, when none.
