CHRISTMAS rs COMING.

Christmas will soon be here, when,
according to custom from time in
memorial. every one will greet his
neighbor with the usual Merry
Christmas" This is day observed in
all christian lands, although there
is no uniformity in the manner of its
commemoration. In some portions of
this country it has long been and Is
still religiOusly observed. More gen.
orally. however, it is made festive
occasional time for interchanging con-
CALCULATIONS and for renewing and
widening the sphere of friendly re-
lations. Excuses often such as attend
the fourth of July have no appropri-
ateness ON Christmas. These two an
niversary days commemorate events
entirely different: sacred memories at
tach to the one, and no special religious
interest to the other; ut least it is not
common to celebrate the fourth of
July as religious occasion. Exhibit
tions such as accompany the fourth of
July ought to have no countenance on
Christmas. In some of our cities
Christmas day is perverted to the basest
of uses. perhaps, nowhere more so
than in Washington. the national
capital of this great Republic. The
noise in that metropolis drives many
people out of the city. to find relief for
lwentv-four hours from the lncessant
noise CT horns, cow bells, guns and fire.
crackers. This senseiess practice of
celebrating Christmas, tits understood,
prevails in several Southern cites, but
has probably not reached any of the
Northern cities to any extent. =
Christmas gifts are every year be-
coming more lavish, and were it posi-
ble to inventory their total cost, it
would foot up to many millions in the
United States.

THE ORIGIN OF PAPER.

The Chinese claim the honor of pro-
ducing the first paper ever used in the
world. According to their chronology
first century. Their claim is probably
a just one, as the Japanese have still in
existence certain data in regard to the
expectation of paper from the Corea to
Japan between the years $50 and 61O
A. d. Previous to this invention print
ing had been done upon cotton or silk.
Owing to the conflicting statements of
various chronological writer's, it is i'm
possible to locate the precise date of its
first introduction into Europe. Deduc-
tons from the mass of evidence would
seem to place it somewhere in the thir-
teenth century. Japan became the first
rival of China, and so proficient did she
become in the art that she far outshone
the original inventors, and eventually
took the stand which she now holds.
There are, even at the present day, GER
tain branches of this industry in which
she owns no equal upon either CONT
nent. There are now manufactured at
Yeddo two hundred and seventy differ
ent varieties Of paper They use bark,
leaves and bamboo for producing their
pulp. They change the quality Of their
paper by various combinations of these
ingredients. The paper manufacturer
OF the present age, possessing all the ad-
vantages derived from centuries Of scien-
titic and mechanical inventions, must
find it very difficult to realize the intri-
cate and lahorious processes accompany
ing the earlier career of this great indus

CARE OF HOGS.

John NJ. Stahl, of Quincy Ill.,, has the
following sensible words to utter on the
care of hogs
:" [ believe Eyes know that hogs can
be kept as free from disease as, any
other farm animals, and all that is re-
quired to do this are the same hygien &c
conditions and the same intelligent, ra-
tional treatment that is accorded to
sheep, cattle and horses. Clean ground
food, pure water, clean quarters and
trough, we'll ventilated quarters, ma
ture animals only for breeders-these
are tle essentials of health and thrift in
swine. And if they are lacking it is
most often in the fattening pen. Sleep
ing places and feeding grounds or floors
are allowed to become foul with ma
nure and effiuvia from the body-sure
to breed disease more or less marked in
IFS symptoms. In the construction of
shelters, especially for fattening animals,
the fault of making them too close is Of
ten found Hogs do not require shelter
as warm as those demanded by other
farm animals but of all animals they
require well ventilated shelters. And in
common with all animals they need
variety of food, and this is rarely found
in the fatteEing pen. Here there is too
often nothing but corn Make a variety
n some way. Turnips and pumpkins
should always be raised for fattening
hogs, and in addition they should be fed
waste potatoes and apples, bran, Stops,
etc. Charcoal and salt must be given
every other morning. I have had no
cholera among my swine for nearly
twenty years-all owing to the fact that
| have bred and reared them as intelli-
gent common-sense would dictate"

THIRD PARTY PROHIBITION

1t is to the non-partisan action of

PRECA U7TON FOR The SAFETY
OF PRESIDENTS.

Notwithstanding all the boastings of
the safety of life in this country from
personal violence, there is probably no
kingdom in Europe where the life of
the king is so much feared as the life
of the Presidents in this free country.
1t had been arranged that President
Cleveland would attend the funeral of
Vice President Hendricks at Indianap-
oils. Two trains of coaches were to
be started from Washington an hour
apart, one of which was to convey the
President. Orders were given that the
track should be kept clear the entire
distance. and any number of detectives
were to travel with each train. The
window curtains of the coaches on one
of the trains were to be drawn down
close, on the other train the curtains
were to remain as usual. This would
naturally give the impression to the
people of the towns through which the
train passed that the closed curtains
contained the President, but the plan
was that the President should be got.
ten on board the tram where the cur.
tains were open. This stlatagem it was
calculated would go far to shield the
President from harm. After all OF
these precautions for the safety of the
President, bis friends and advisers
counseled him not to take the risk of a
short journey, consequently he aban
doned attending the funeral 1t is

SCHOOL ROARDS

Many criticisms from time to time
have appeared in educational journals
and weekly papers upon the action of
School Boards. Because their work is
given freely to the public, may be one
cause of free criticism. This body of
men is chosen by The people of a town,
and usually represents, not only the
scholarly, but practical interests of that
town. AS education is growing to be
more all-sided, this is well. To the
action of this body of men the public is
indebted for any degree of excellence
the schools may have attained, and any
marked improvement which may have
been made. 1t is theirs to look still
farther into, the workings of arr plans or
methods and to decide upon any farther
improvements. Common sense and
knowledge of practical things, as we'll as
scholarly attachments, will enter into a
just appreciation of any work.-Con..

of the Senate been chosen according
to the usual custom, the man so chosen
would now be the Vice-President of
the United States. Ex-senator Thur
man states the situation as follows:
@The theory of the Senate is that it
is a perpetual body. The Senate be-
fore the commencement of the present
vacation failed to elect President
pro tempore. as is usually the case, a
few days before the adjournment, and
this failure leaves the country without
a Vice President at this time. If the
President should die before the It'll of
December an interregnum would exist
in the Office until the Senate, which
meets on that date, should elect a
President of that body, who would az
sumo the duties of the President OF
the United States and continue to dis
charge the same until another election
| for President and Vice President was
lheld. In the meantime the Secretary
of State would notify the Governors
of the several States, who would order
new election, which, however, would
not be held until next November

PROGRESS OF LIBERAL SENTI
MENT'.

The recent Encyclical letter of Pope
Leo XIII. gives an entirely new phase
to sentiments which have hitherto
not been understood to be those
of the Roman Pontiffs. The Pope says
that the church of which he is the
head is not opposed to reasonable and
lawful liberty, nor to education in all
the proper branches of knowledge; nor
to modern constitutional systems.
That he does not regard the teach
ings of other religious sects as
atheism, but of course he prefers
Catholic systems and methods, and
the Catholic faith and education, Catho-
lie thought and governments acknow.
leding the Catholic church. He de-
clares IN substance that any religion is
better than no religion, any system OF
education is better than ignorance
That liberty which is not taken ad-
vantage of for license is the right Of
every one; also that the progressive
institutions of civilization should be
upheld by all religious sects. One O
our most respectable exchanges wei
remarks, that "the most enlightened
statesman of the age, Gladstone O
Churchill, of England, or Blaine. of thu
United States, could have said but little
more than this, or said it better"

Barry is still comparatively stranger
