Case.
A well known broker Of Wall street was
chatting few days ago with some friends,
and somewhat surprised them by asserting
that luck has had more to do with the max
ing Of sudden and immense fortunes in the
street than Is commonly supposed He re-
ferred for one example 10 his own experience,
and said that twice he had found himself
100000 or more better off at night than he
was in the morning, and had at once realized,
although when he went down to the street
that day he hal no idea of making such q
comfortable sum. Three times by sheer ac-
cident, for which he was not TO blame, he bad
lost a pretty little fortune, and he 'f~ we'd
that his own experience could he mate by
very many Of the spectators nf the et.
OF course he eXceptai those great operators
who. from their control Of Immense amounts
Of cash. from their ownership Of controlling
interests in large properties, and their ability
to manipulate the market, were placed be
yond the power of lucky or unlncky accident
to affect greatly their wealth.
Perhaps the most remarkable case that
ever came under my observation, the broker
went on TO say, was that Of one Of the most
conservative men now Oh the street. He is
now simply broker, and 81 ice Black Friday
has never speculated one dollars worth. You
remember that three or four men brought ON
the panic now known As Black Friday by
cornering gold and running the price up TIL
many operators were ruined, the street was
in a wild panic, and universal smash Seemed
imminent. These men relied on what they
believed To bc good assurance that the gov
ernment would put no gold on the market
that day, and they bad locked up pretty
much all the rest of V gold in the country

DAIRY FARMING.
Probably the Most Profitable Branch o
Agricultural Industry.

Probably the Most Profitable Branch Of
Agricultural Industry.
1t has not yet been appreciated but
the day is coming when economy will
be the order of the day on every farm
in America At present q most pcrni-
cious system Of waste prevails. here,
there and everywhere on the farm, and
economy Is practiccd only in the
spending of the little money which fl
nally finds its way to the pockets OF the
owner to be used for the personal cx-
penses Of himself and family. We vent.
ure the statement that the produce OF
nearly every farm could be doubled by
careful planning, by prudent fore
thought and by judiciously husbanding
every resource. In no one way does
the farmer lack economy more than
In outstanding his own labor by th,
exercise Of his mental faculties. He
needs to think and plan more, see
where physical labor may be avoided
by better system Of business, and Il
diversity and rotation Of crops so con-
triycd as TO call for the least labor and
the best and most valuable product
This, we believe, is found in more
grass and stock and less grain farming.

HOG-RAISINo.
An Industry Which Can Not Be Made

An Industry which Can Not lie Made

by common consent the hog is near
ly everywhere rated as the most easily
reared of all our domestic animals, and
(barring always loss IS from contagious
discases) he is usually considered tn
most profitable. Hence he il found in
more or less numbers on nearly every
farm, regardless of location, soil or
drainage, OF Of the system Of farming
pursued. As. however. all the lands
in the country are not alike suited to
the growing Of any one crop, or 10 any
one method of culture. so all farms are
not equally well adapted to the rear
ing and feeding of hogs. When farm
ers come to understand the truth and
to act upon It, great advance will
have been made In controlling swine
plague and other contagious diseases
among hogs.
The locations which may be consid-
cred particularly unsafe for hog rais-
ing are farms, or parts Of farms, that
receive drainage from other lands
where hogs are kept. -he boastcd

farms but a source Of death to the hogs

their thirst, rs might be supposed, from
it, pure current, they drink rather
from the horse and cattle tracks along
the edge, or from other like holes that
become, as the water rcccdes. stag

propagation OF disease germs which

Some may say: This Is mere theory;

general adoption Of the remedy sug-
gcsled Is not AT all probable, and in
that view it may therefore be shelyed
among the impractical theories. But

THE SILENT MONKS.

Everyday Routine by which Their Mon
asteries Are Governed.
The routine of one monastery is n
repetition of the life at every other
house belonging TO the order. Proba-
bly, the most trying part of it is the per-
petual silence. The monks may speak
TO the Abbot when absolute necessity
requires it. The Abbot, the Prior, the
guest-master and the man who serves
the guests are, Of course, at liberty TO
speak. Otherwise perpetual silence is
laid upon the order. In certain parts
of the house even those officers do not
speak except in devotional exercise.
When Father Joseph, the guest-master,
was describing TO me the business Of
the chapter room he stood outside the
door, not being permitted 10 speak in
the room, though we were alone there.
The same thing is true of the church
and Of the dormitory. l noticed that
when Father Joseph took me into those
places he always put up his cowl. He
would not speak even in the old and
abandoned dormitory, where are now
only some piles of grain and two un-
used beds.
The dormtory is an additional hard
ship. The beds consist of Stats covered
by thin, hard mattresses, over which
are coarse covers. The beds are really
hunks. They are placed in long
double line down the room, and each
one is incloscd in a little box like
closet, the partitions of which do not
reach the floor. In each room there
are a crucifix and scourge. saw no
other article d furniture. A curtain
hangs before each doorway. The
scourge, or discipline, as it is called,
consists Of five stout cords, each
knotted in five places, fixed TO a
wooden handle. Every Friday morn
ing, after the offices Of the night, the
community repairs 20 the dormitory.
Every monk enters his cell, and, at
signal given by the Abbott, by stamp
ing on the floor, every monk, including
the Abbott himself, whips his bare
shoulders with the discipline. The
Abbot also gives the signal to stop the
punishment. The Abbot is subject, in
general terms, TO the same rules as
those by which the others live. His
bed is the first, he sits at the head OF
the table; but in all respects he lives
like the meanest Of the order, except
that he may talk BiUOUdc.
