Strikes Affect tho Farmers.

The farmer who is quietly rusticating
away from the scenes and tumults incl
dent to crowded cities may congratulate
himself that he is in no manner affected
by the strikes and lockouts that occa-
sionally occur, but such is not true.
Whenever Q mechanic Is thrown out Of
employment the farmer loses Just ono
more customer. The..mschsnic is COM
PEELED to reduce his expenses to the low
est possible point, and every reduction
he mades decreases the demand for the
productions of the farm. And the me-
chAnic is interested in the success of the
farmer, for when crops are short the me-
chanic must pay higher prices, while the
armer has less to sell. Both classes are
mutually dependent upon each other
in great many ways. Every burden
that is placed upon the shoulders of
either class must be borne by both.
Every strike that occurs lessons the pur-
chasing power of the strikers, and every
who fattens at the expense
of the working classes takes his gains
through them directly from the farmera

The New Work Herald says of the
great dry goods merchant who recently
died:
Personally, M. Clsflin was very pecu-
liar. His head was as bald as q billiard
ball, his back hair hung on his shoulders
in long and flowing locks, his nose was
sharp and pointed, his lips thin and
bloodless. his figure spare and his move
nents quick. He invariably walked
with his hands in bis pockets. with . soft
felt hat far down upon his ears, his body
bent forward and his eyes fixed on the
far away, as though he was in q perpet-
ual hurry, He was jolly full of fun spark
ling and quick witted in talk and bright,
smart, fairly red, and most cordial in his
welcome. Those who knew him in the
counting room or in his own home knew
little of him. In one he was always the
alert, active dealer; in the other he WIS
the good natured host, but in his drives
upon the road, in his relaxations in the
club, in his intercourse with men and
women of artistic pursuits, he was one
of the gayest of the gay, AN even welcome
guest"
