WE think Il would be an excellent plan
for some one to introduce bill into the
General Assembly authorizing township
trustees to expend a little money for the
better protection of township property.
In the State there are fifteen hundred
townships, and probably they average
twenty subordinate districts in each town
ship, which makes thirty thousand dis
tricts in the State. The tools necessary
for working the roads would cost about
$50 to each district, which foots up nearly
one million dollars. Now, by the improp-
er care of the tools, by leaving them ex.
posed to the weather in the winter and by
misappropriations about One.half OF the
districts have TO be re-furnlshed at an
enormous expense each year. II the trus-
tees were authorized to disburse reason.
able sum of money for the erection OF a
proper building for the storage OF the
tools, and have the township clerk charge
each implement, at the beginning of the
season, to the supervisor who is to have
charge Of it, and have it made obligatory
upon the supervisors to return their i'm
plements at the close of the season or pay
for them, our burden of taxation woult
be greatly lightened in that direction, ant
the business would be much more system
atically done.

TERMS.

BY the election of W. K Wean 1or
Mayor, as his own successor, all doubts
are removed as to any future line of pol,
icy in the administration OF affairs in this
village. During his administration which
is about to close he has made it such an
uncomfortable place for thieves, pick
pockets, bummers and law.breakers gen.
orally that they pass us by. AS a result
of this the moral standing OF the place has
gone up and will continue to rise as long
as the strong arm of the law is enforced
So lar as the government Of the town is
concerned, Mayor Wean and Marshal
Hackett have the thanks of the press, and,
we think, of all good citizens.
We trust that, at the close OF their com
ing administration, the moral condition oil
the town will be the same, or better than
at present. Had there been change in
the officials at the present election, we
have no doubt but the same policy would
have been adopted as by the present ad-
ministraton.

NJ. A. FoRAN, Representative from the
21st Congressional district, is advocating
the labor question in the Lower House.
Mr.. Foran knows just as much about the
labor question as an average Hottentot
knows about international laws. We
claim that the laborer needs no aid from
Congress, for the simple reason that 1t is
among the impossibilities. Just as soon
as LEGISLATION NEEDLES with questions per.
tanning TO citizens private affairs, the
power of contracting is at an end. A true
American citizen needs no aid, even If II
could be obtained. The principle is that
you cannot compel person 10 work for
you; neither can he compel you to EN-.
ploy him. If an individual or corpora
tion cannot pay man wages adequate to
support himself and family let him discon.
tinue the service and seek other employ.

Facts About Artichokes.

The artichoke, which originally came
from Barbary, is not a botanical species,
but a variety Of the thistle, which grows
spontaneously all along the African
coast of the Mediterranean from Morocco
TO Palestine. II is now cultivated ex-
tensively in France, where hose which
come from Brittany and Algeria are the
species most highly esteemed. Even of
these there are many varieties, such as
the Camus artichoke of Brittany, the
bronzed artichoke of Roscoff, the big
green artichoke of Laon and the violet
srtichoke of Provence. There are also
varieties which come from Italy, Spain,
India and Canada, to say nothing of the
Jerusalem artichoke, famous for the
enormous size of its leaves.
In the south of France, when the crop
is abundant, the heads are carefully
picked of all their leaves and the "hearts"
dried in the sun are put up in sacks and
stored away for winter use. These
hearts when boiled in water, or in rich
beef broth, become soft and recover their
form, color and flavor. They are then
taken from the pot, the water and broth
strained away, the center is filled with
forced meat and they are then either
fried or baked. The heads with their
pale green, long. narrow and pointed
leaves clustered around the top of tall
stalk give the plant very elegant ap-
pearance. Each head, if allowed to ma
ture, bears purple, violet flower, which
give great richness of color to a field
of artichokes. Letter.

The herring's power of propagation is
marvellous. They are scooped out of the
weirs like sand and decapitated by the
billion. By canning and smoking in
summer and freezing in the winter
enough herring are preserved in that
vicinity almost to fill the bed of the
East river between the bridge piers if
the water was drained out. And yet
the schools each year seem as large as
ever. A dealer told me that he saw no
signs of the herring giving out. The
herring is the silliest of fish. He goes
into weir through wide door, and
might easily go out through the same
opening. Once inside, however, he swims
around and around in circles, and is
frightened by the waving of the weir
brush in the water from approaching
the sides. So he stays in and is lost

Portraiture Invented by silhouette.

EoFuahtuFe AhSehteo W Sh"ouett0s
Until Daguerre made his discovery the
wealthy had their miniatures painted on
ivory, but the cheaper portraiture
invented by Silhouette was very COM
mon. Profile cutters, as they were
called, were found in all cities and large
towns, while others went about the coun-
try from house to house, so that it was
rare to find sitting room in any decent
house that did not boast of framed
silhouette, one looking to the right and
the other to the left. There were diff.
ferent ways of arriving at the same
result, but the work was chiefly done by
cutting the, profile out Of white paper,
which was backed by piece of black
silk or black paper neatly mounted.
To insure success it was necessary to
have a steady hand and a correct eye;
with these qualities one could cut like
ness in few seconds. There was also
several mechanical contrivances for pro-
ducing silhouettes, one of which Sam
Weller doubtless had in his minds eye
when, in indicting his valentine to Mary,
he likened the growth of his love in its
rapid operations to the "profeel ma
chine" which does finish portrait
and put the frame and gloss on com.

Every day hospitals are being erected
TO nurture the diseased and imperfect
specimens of our race, and every year
thousands of children are by skill and
care saved from the death to which
nature would consign them. All this
accords with our enlarged notions Of
humanity, and reflects great credit on
the zeal of the philanthropist and the
science Of the physician, but exerts a
baneful effect on the race. To one who
has had access to any large city
hospitals, it is pitful sight to see the
multitude Of children who are tided over
. few years, and sent out into the world
branded with any hereditary faint, to
propagate their wretched breeds

Discovery Of . Northern River.

United States government to explore
Putnam nver. Alaska, which was dis
covered by him in 1883, has found river
to the north which the natives say emp
ties into the Arctic near Point Barrow.
The river is supposed to be the same as
the one at the mouth Of which Lieut..
Ray established his headquarters during
his observing expedition. Along the
banks Of this river were Indians who had
never before seen white man. Lieut..
Stoney afterwards explored Natak river

Curious Changes Of Flower.

Many persons, though well acquainted
with flowers, are unaware of the changes
through which the Seeding tulip passes.
It is four or five years before it flowers,
then it takes on the self-colored or
breeder form; but in the breeder state it
is easy TO clase it with the bizarres, roses
or byblemens, according as it may be
long to either of these three divisions.
Then, at the expiration or sometimes one
or two years up to six or seven years, it
breaks into its true character, and be-
comes what is termed @rectified." Why
the tulip should be an exception TO the
universal law observed in seeding flow
ers, and have an almost exceptionally
intermediate state, passeth knowledge.
The practical florist asks of the botanist
the why and wherefor Of this, and no
reply is forthcoming. II is said that in
the whole range and history
of plants there is no analogy to this
phenomenon. Magazine.
