THE NEW PHENOMENON.


Commenting upon this "Declaration OF
Independence, the Century article says:
'To one who knows the character of
the New York press, and the American
press in general, during most of the
thirty years since this was written, this
description of its impartial character
reads like sarcasm. The era of jour
nalistic independence was as brief rs
that of the disintegration of parties.
When the new lines had been drawn the
newspapers fell into place on one side or
the other-not upon the whole with the
old subservience, yet with degree of
partisan fidelity which grew with the
growth of party discipline as the Repub-
lican party matured and the Democratic
party recovered from its successive dis
ruptions; so that, in 1872 Independent
journalism was greeted by the general
public as new phenomenon. There
were, of course, exceptions among the
press, to trace which would belong to Il
general history of journalism. But
through the intervening period, whether
| heartily favoring or criticising or oppos-
ing the general course of the Republican
party, Mr.. Bowles' paper never hest
tated to pronounce Il frank, independent
judgment on the measures and men of
that party and of all parties. Its political
news was honest. Its readers could al
ways find the views OF its opponents
fairly quoted and ungarbled. Its regular
correspondents at Washington and else
where were always under instructions to
give facts rs they We're, whether they
suited the editorial views or not"

A Gigantic Gorge.

A CORES pondent of the San Francis
co Chronicle, describing the appearance
of the Yosemite valley from Conway's
Eagle point trail, says;
One who has not ascended this trail
going to Eagle peak. while in Yosemite,
can form no idea of the giant gorge.
There is no one point in the valley. to
the writer's knowledge, where person
can get such a vivid idea of the terrific
action which has produced this wonder
of nature as from the final glimpse of
this trail down to the gorge below. You
are in n narrow. N-shaped basin. a
giant wall of two thousand feet at your
right hand, and on your left the round
ed granite slope, just over whose crest
plunges and tears the famous creek

time most beautiful bound out into the

1t is the Yosemite fall, while far below
sparkles a pendulous and winding
u
of the lower falls finding its way to the
Merced- The valley floor from here is
a mere spot, and the giant walls rising
on either hand nearly pcrpendicularly
make the gorge seem 10000 feet deep.
There is no spot where the grandeur of
the Yosemite is so fully realized as
from here. Stripped of its beautiful
and soft hazy coloring; its cver-chang-
ing and marvellous stone cuttings lost
to view; its green valley gone; its
beautiful expanse swallowed up by
granite walls, it stands out from here
in its truth, what it really is, terrific
chasm bound by Jagged granite pima
cles. The ride up to the summit of the
trail is toilsome to the last degree. 1t
is in distance four miles, and the alti-
tude above the valley is about 5000

health resort he had called in the local
Esculapius, 'Iu do anyt9ing ye say,

When he was usher at AMMAN he suf-
fered, as he always did, from dyspep-.

doctor of great local fame, who told
him to stop smoking. He stopped sew

How Long We Should Sleep.

The latest authority on this vexed
question-Dr. Malins-says that the
proper amount of sleep to be taken by
a man is eight hours. So far as regards
city life, the estimate is probably cor
rect. Proyerbial wisdom does not ap-
ply to modern conditions of social exist
ence. a Five (hours) for man, seven
for a woman, and nine for pig" says
one proverb; and second, quoted by
Mr. Hazlitt in his English Proverbs,
declares that nature requires five; Gus
tom allows seven; laziness takes nine,
and wickedness eleven. These conclu-
sions were, however, drawn from OBJ
servation of country life. Physical
fatigue is more easily overcome than

any way separated from the ordinary

Lincoln's Economy.

President Lincoln, reared in the lap
of poverty, was very economical. When
he came to Washington he had saved
from his professional earnings $4,000,
and he did not owe dime. During
his presidential term he saved from his
salary of S25. 900 per year 500. 900.
which Henry ID. Cook invested for him
in government securities. lie was not
a sloyenly man, but he bought cheap
clothes. and cared little whether they
fitted him or not. After he came to
Washington, Mrs. Lincoln used to see
that he was always presentable, but he
often rebelled, and regarded white kid
gloves as an unmitigated nuisance.
While clothes were to Mr.. Lincoln
only something to cover him up. he
only ate because it was his duty, and did
not know what was good to eat any
more than he did what was good to
wear. He never drank intoxicating
liquors or used tobacco in any form.
Neither did he know how to play any
game respectfully well. His Illinois
friends said that it was as good as a
circus to see him play game of bill
lizards. While he occasionally told stor-
les which were ..off color" no one
ever charged him with an immoral act,
and the most accomplished sirens OF
the capital failed in their attempts to
beguile him-Bost0H Budget

The Saudal-Wood of Japan,

Passing by shop you see cords of
wood cut into small blocks about six
inches long. This you learn is nothing
short of shoe-timber. These cords of
wood will speedily be converted into
shoes of various sizes, at prices rang
ing all the way from to 20 cents
One feels quite exalted in a pair of 20
cent shoes. The wood is called kiri,
and is very light. The clogs are still
further lightened by following out the
center So, in point of fact, there is
little truth in calling the shoes heavy,
although they appear SO to the mex
perienced observer. 1t must be admit
ted, though, that they are unreasona-
bly, clumsy. Sometimes the shoes worn
by the ladies are lacquered, and are

A TEAR DID IT.

IN incident: Not many years back
Tennessee husband returned home
from drunken carousal, and was soon
asleep in his chamber, His dear, broken
heart wife hung trembling in her
weeping over his besotted form PROSTATE
upon the couch. She pleaded with
Heaven for his reformation, and made
that saddened room sadder with her
sobbing. As she bowed in intense grief
over him she fondly loved, a hot
message from the heart-a tear
dropped from her brimming eyes upon
his cheek. 1t aroused him; he awoke !;
saw that angel watcher at his side; arose.
and resolved, with Gods strength, he
would reform, and no longer debauch
his being and sorrow her whom he had
plighted to comfort and tenderly keep.
That husband is now, and has been
for years an eloquent and successful
minister of Christ in the Southern
Church.
There is a wonderfully mysterious
philosophy wrapped up in the ministry
of small things. God can use tear as
well as the thunderbolt of war to

Language OF the Voice.

Nothing betrays so much as the
voice, save perhaps the eyes, but they
can be lowered, and so far their ex-
preston hidden.
In moments of emotion no skill can
hide the fact of disturbed feeling,
though strong will and the habit of
self-control can steady the voice when
else it would be falling and tremu-
lous.
Certain voices crate on the nerves
and set our teeth on edge. and others
are just as calm as they are irritat-
ing, quieting, or like a composing
draught.
A good voice, calm in tone and mu-
sical in quality, is one of the essentials
for physician-the bedside voice. =
which is nothing if it is not sympathet-
ic by constitution.
Whatever its original quality may
be, the orators voice bears the unmis-
taxable stamp of art, and becomes ar

ting.
An orators voice, with its careful
intonation and accurate accent, would
be as much out of place beside a sick
bed as brocaded silk for the kitchen
girl.
The voice is much more indicative
of the state of the mind than many peo
pie know or allow.
One of the first symptoms of failing
brain power is an indistinct or con,
fused utterance; no idiot has clear ol
