What Labor Knows.

Labor knows better than any other
element in society the extent of the
drink evil. The intelligent working
man who looks abroad perceives that
all the efforts at securing better con-
ditions for his class must fail so long
as the class itself, through lack of self
restraint and self-denial, squanders so
large proportion of its earnings in
the saloon, and by the cultivation OF
depraved tastes kills its own conscience.
ambition, self-respect and capacity for
improvement. He perceives the fulfill
ty of talk about the inequality of COM
pensation so long as the fact exists,
patent to all the world, that if labor
retrenched half its expenditures upon
drink fund would result suffi ,ient to
insure comfort and abundance to all
its members and to furnish them be-
sides with the means of higher educa-
ton and enjoyment. He knows from
sad experience that, rs . working-man
writes to the Foice ''three-fourths Of
the destitution among laborers and
their families is the result of intemper.
ance." He knows, too. that the sa-
loon in politics has degraded the suf-
frage, corrupted the voter, set the citf-
zen against his own best interests.

TRAINING FLEAS.
A Circus Composed Of Two Hu ndred In
telligent Little Inse cts.

A Circus Composed Of Two HUI ndred In.
telligent Little Inse cts.
A flea circus, composed of about two
hundred of the most distinguished and
intelligent feas in the entire family,
was exhibited few years ago.
Who first discovered that the flea was
susceptible to education and kind treat
ment is unknown; but the fact remains
that on their small heads there is a
thinking-cap capable of accomplishing
great results. In the selection of feas
for training, however, the same care
must be taken as with human beings,
as the greatest difference is found in
them. Some are exceedingly apt
scholars, while others can never learn,
so it is that great numbers of heas are
experimental with before troupe is
accepted.
One of the first lessons taught the
flea is to control its jumping powers,
for II its great leaps should be taken in
the middle of q performance, there
would be sudden ending to the cir.
Gus. To insure against such a misfor.
tune, the student flea is first placed in
q glass phial, and encouraged to jump
as much as possible. Every leap here
made brings the polished head of tht
flea against the glass, hurting the in
sect back, and throwing it this way
and that, until, after long and sorry
experience, and perhaps many head
aches, it makes up its mind never II
unfold its legs suddenly again. Whel
it has proved this by refusing to juml
in the open air, the first and most i'm
portant lesson is complete, and
joins the troupe, and is daily harnesse
and trained, until, finally, it is pre-
nounced ready to go on the stage or i
the ring. &C. +. Holder, in 81. Nicholas

THR movement among Knights Of
Labor to prohibit the use Of intoxicants
by the members is in the right direc-
ton. If successful, it will do much to
increase their power and smeliorate
their condition. The knightly reasons
for the prohibition are that 'the man
who does not use liquor win be less Il.
able to commit rash and violent aots;''
''that his employer will not have his
drinking habits as an excuse for get
ting rid of him, and will listen to his
grievances more respectfully 1t he is Q
man Of sobriety." The Knights also
say that ''the man who drinks Is the
slave Of his employer. IN W ChSss
