We FAN in Love.

We do fall in love, taking us in the
lump, with the young, the beautiful. the
strong, and the healthy. We do not fall
in love, taking us in the lump. with the
aged, the ugly, the feeble, and the sickly.
The prohibition of the church is scarcely
needed to prevent a man from marrying
his grandmother. Moralists have always
borne a special grudge to pretty faces, but,
as Herbert Spencer admirably put it, (long
before the appearance of Darwin's select
i've theory, =" the saying that beauty is but
skin deep is itself but skin-deep saving
In reality, beauty is one of the very best
guides we can possibly have to the desira-
blllty, so far as race preservation is con-
cerneG, OF any man or any woman as a part
ner in marriage. a fine form, a good
figure, a beautiful bust, round arm
and neck, fresh complexion a lovely
face, are all outward and visible signs of
the physical qualities that on the whole
consplre to make up healthy and vigor-
Gus wife and mother; they imply sound
ness, fertility, good circulation, a good
digestion. Conversely, sallowness and pale
ness are roughly indicative of dyspepsia
and an9mia flat chest is a symptom of
deficient maternity, and what we call bad
figure is really in one way or another en-
unhealthy departure from the central
norma and standard of the race. Good
teeth mean good deglutition clear eye
means an active liver; scrub5iness and
undersizedness means feeble viriitv. Nor
are indications of mental and moral eff
cheney by any means wanting as recognized
elements in personal beauty A good
humored face is in itself almost pretty. A
pleasant smile half redeems unattractive
features. Low, receding foreheads strike
us unfavorably. Heavy stolid, balf-idiotic
countenances can never be beautiful,
however regular their lines and contours.
Intelligence and goodness are almost as
necessary as health and vigor in order to
make up our perfect ideal of a beautiful
human face and figure. The Apollo Belye-
dere is no fool the murderers in the cham
Der of horrors at Nine. Tussa1ds are for
the most part no beauties. What we all
fall in love With, then, as a race, is in most
cases efficiency and ability. What we each
fall in love with individually is, believe,
our moral, mental and physical compile
ment. Not oGr like, not our counterpart;
quite the contrary; within healthy limits,
our unlike and our opposite. That ibis is
so has long been more or less common
place OF ordinary conversation: that II -
scientifically true, one time with another,
when we take an extended range OF cases,
may, ] think, be almost demonstrated by
sure and certain warranty OF human Da-

THE MESSAGE,
A Tariff Writer Assaiis the Presidents
Views.


Views.
by telegraph to the REcoRp-JNroN.1
WASHINGTON, December sth.-Robert P.
Porter the tariff writer speaking of the
tarif recommendations of the Presidents
message, says Can anyone believe in
the sincerity or convictions of a man who.
recognizing that the farmers of the conn
try are being sorcly pressed in the markets
OF the world with the products they raise
TO export, calmly recommends that one
product TOR which they have a profitable
home market, be swept into the free list,
and thus be supplanted to a large extent
by the products of cour tries which are
sorely pressing them in other commOditiesp
And, turning from the farmers to working
men, is 1t possible to believe a man honest
VINO dllates on the hardships of those who
toll Tor daily wages, and deliberately ig-
nores the appeals those laboring men made
last winter before the Ways and Means
committee against the Morrison bill. and
ton?
The difference between the President
and the Secretary of the Treasury is simply
this: The President is with the free trad
ers and does not dare to say so, while the
Secretary OF the Treasury has come out
openly for free trade, and does not care
who knows it. 1t is futile to attempt to
analyze what President Cleveland saws on
the subject. tits mere stringing together
of words to break the force of the real
measure 10 be pushed through by the DEM
ocratic majority. 1t is nothing. 1t resem-
bies the man who wrote it as much as a
child ever resembled its parent. To talk
OF sweeping American industries into the
free list, to hand them over to foreign
countries, and at the same time not to re-
duec he wages of American labor is the
talk of fool, not of statesman. Ii is
simply impossible, and yet that is what the
President OF the United States would have
people believe. To talk of taking Ameri-
can industries from the dutiable schedule
of the tariff and place them on the free list
without disastrous shock to anv interest
is a proposition that may come within the
orbit OF Mr.. Cleyeland's intellect; but it
is far too extraordinary for an ordinary
mind to grasp. Every line of the message
in relation to the tariff is a tissue of hum
buggery. That is the best that can be said
of it." 9''-'-

II Keeps the English Politicians Oh the
Ragged Edge.
NEW YORK, December Sth.-The Posts
London special says: The great Unionist
conference yesterday had an enthusiastic
and crowded meeting of what Gladstone
pretty accurately calls - the classes These
were carefully separated from each other
on benches, according to their degrees of
rank and distinction. The banquet in the
evening was of precisely the same charac-
ter. In all the speeches of both gatherings
there was not syllable which pointed to
possibility ofany reunion with the Home
Rule Liberals, whose plan of the campaign
was Yehemently denounced. Almost frantic
appeals were made to disown it, 1t has
thus at last dawned on the beiated minds
of the Unionists that this plan of campaign
is of the utmost importance, and unless
they crush them ultimately its adoption is
certain, as it is spreading like wildlire
throughout Ireland The Parnellite men,
bers who undertake to collect rents are
hardly able to stand the physical fatigue
caused by the promptitude with which the
tenants respond in every case 1t is pub
Gcly explained that if the landlords do not
accept reduced rents from the hands of the
trustees they will be applied to the pur-
poses of the National League, and for the
support of eyicted tenants.
In Conservative circles this morning
boundless delight is felt at the attitude OF
the Unionists toward the Government,
while the feelings of the Liberals to-day
are Of mixed character composed half OF
extreme indignation and bitterness at the
conservative character of the Unionist
speeches, and half of satisfaction at the
issue being at last definitely joined There
is no other cOurse before them than tn uina
the Unionists from the face of the English
political earth, and that whatever the pro-
cess may cost or involve they will do it if
they can.

riotous action of the so-called pickets "
here, in their frequent attacks on persons
whose only crime was that of working for a

akin to terror. The result will be the
formation of law-and-order society. The

Our Neighbors Feel Offended at the
President.
CITY OF MExIco, December Shit is
generally believed here that diplomatic
question of grave Importance will soon arise
between the United States and Mexico,
growing out of the position taken by
President Cleveland against the right Of
Mexico to try Americans for committing
offenses against Mexican law while
on American soil. The papers OF
all shades of opinion stand by the
Government in this matter on the ground
that the principle is a sound one and ap-
proved by some Of the most highly-civiIized
nations of the world.

ST. LOUIS, December Sth.-A special to
the Post Dispatch from Poplar Bluff, No.
says; w. W. Stead, an Alderman of this
city and well known in the county, was
supposed to have died last Sunday His
body was laid out and all arrangements
were made for the funeral, which was to
have occurred to-day. Yesterday, however,
signs Of resuscitation became apparent; the
face assumed its natural color, the tempera-
ture became distinctly hotter, and the eye
lids opened and shut several times. He was
spoken to, but gave no sign that he heard
or understood. 1t is thought possible that
he may be brought back to life, although
the efforts of the physicians to accomplish
that end have SO far failed In the mean
time the funeral has been postponed.

An Orange Riot.

DUBLIN, December 8th.--The Catholics
of Lurgan, County Armagh, formed in
procession last night and marched through
the streets to show their joy at the acquittal
OF some of their number who had been
tried on charge of rioting. The Orange
men of the town resented the demonstra-
ton, and attacked the paraders. A fierce
riot ensued, and sticks, stones and revolyers
were used. The fighting lasted several
hours, and was finally quelled in the early
morning by troops of dragons, which had
to be called upon. A score of persons were
wounded and several houses partly
wrecked
Il Canadian Version of the Fishery Oues-

New YORK, December 9th-A. M.-The

Tupper, High Commissioner for Canada,
criticises that part Of the Presidents mes

follows to the correspondent: The Gov
ernment of Canada had given the fishermen
of the United States free use of the fisheries
for year, upon condition that the matter
should be submitted to the Senate for a
friendly settlement by an international
Commission. The Gloucester fisher
men declare hostility to negotiating
any treaty under which they would be en-
titled to fish in Canadian waters on the
ground that they did not require to 90 into
Canadian waters to obtain fish. The SEN
ate rejected the proposal for an Interna-
tional Commission, and we then-in the
most temperate manner possible-enforced

Stanford has not abandoned the hope that
the Republicans Of California will elect
Republican successor to Senator Williams.
He says be has not consulted the authori-
ties as to the status of the Senate, and the
right of one-half the Snators to hold over,
under the Constitution, but he believes
that there is a good chance for the long
term Senators to make a fight for their
rights; and if they should be confirmed in
their title, the Legislature would be Re
publican by q small majority.
