If she would only read some for

see if the heart don't grow weary of
well-doing in the course Of ten or
twelve years, aud the poor. heart
sick, worn ont body will try to get
rest and thinks to do IL by doing less
work. She tries to not care for him,
to not care how he looks, for tile only
one she wants to please has long
shown that he don't care for her and
home, and why need she! In short,
she tries to not care for anything but
to forget that she ever had hope Of
happy home. Where does he 90?
you say. Why, where there are
women as big fools as himself, for
anybody knows he would never take
80 much pains with his toilet to 20
and spend his time at business or
with men at night.
But let his wife dare te insinuate
or think for one moment it is not all
right. just see how he is abused
and how he will storm the place until
wife and children wish he would &c
and never come back. He thinks
she is great deal more of crimina
for thinking he will do wrong than he
is for doing wrong, no matter how
much of his cussedness he knows she
is aware of. She must not believe hel
eyes or understanding.

Teaching by Example.

Yes, brother, you shall teach your
child obedience teach him that your
will and word is law, and instil into
his mind that profound reverence for
law which every citizen should feel.
And if you will just keep on lying
little to the assessor about the value
of your property in order to evade
certain tax laws and violate the law
about riding On the platform every
time you ride on street car, and de-
fly the ordinances respecting the ash
barrels and snow on your sidewalk
every time you have the opportunity,
and keep on breaking every munici-
pal and state law that isn't convenient
for you to obey, the boys reverence
for the law will grow deep every
year, until it will be so deep that he
can't reach down to it when be wants
to use it. The way to teach a boy
obedience is to be just as disobedient
as you can be. Just sit down now
and think; tEy to count up how many
state laws and municipal ordinances
you violated yesterday. Then cal
your children around you and tell
them if they ever disobey you in the
lightest particular you'll break every
back in the camp.-Burdette.

LABOR STATISTICS.
Colonel Wright at Work on His Forthcom'
ing Report

Colonel Wright at Work on His ForthcOms
ing Report.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.-Coonel Wright,
Commissioner OF Labor, expects to complete
his second annual report about January. 1t
is graphing with some important and fdr
reaching questions. First, he agrees
have complete investigation OF cOnylt
labor and its effects upon free labor TIL,
result of this inquiry will show that, taken
as a whole, the value of the product Of
manufactured goeds produced in prisons,
and of work done by cOnvcts, bears small
proportion to the total products Of the
country. Examined, however, in details,
the facts will disclose that certain lines OF
industry have undoubtedly been seriously
injured by the employment of con-
Wet labor to the detriment Of free
labor The total prison population of
the United States at the present time
is 57,3S1-of this number 52,739 are
at work and 1862 idle. OF the total num-
Der at work 4S,S3S are male and 1901
female. The methods of employment ere
interesting. There are under contract, H.
939; under lease 9,291; employed at piece
work, 1850; employed on public account,
j, 10
York enjoys the gloomy pre-eminence of
having the largest prison population, aggre-
eating 9,O32, and Pennsylvania ranks
second, with 5,j33; Massachusetts comes
next, with 3,S19; Illinois, 3, 800; Ohio 8, 224;
Michigan, 2,629; Texas, 1859, and so on
down to Mr.. Bayard's pocket borough
Delaware which closes the list with eighcy-
nine. These cOnyicts are principally en-
gagged in fifteen pursuits, as follows: Agrl-
cultural implements, boots and shoes, build
ing, carriages and wagons, clothing, con-
structiOn, farm furniture, iron goods,
labOrers, leather goods, mining, stone work,
wooden goods, prison work. The average
contract prices paid for this work is
from 40 to so cents per day. The effect Of
this is undoubtedly to depress prices and
labor in the industries in which prison labor
comes in competition with free labor, For
example, prison labor in the manufacture Of
boots and shoes has depressed the prices Of
these goods, some say, as much as twenty
five per cent The States in which the con.
tract system prevails are Connecticut, Hi
noIs Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Maryland,
Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mis-
souri,, New Hampshire, New York, ONO,
| Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Texas,
Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia and Wis
| cOnsin. In three Of these States, however,
the contract system has recently been
abolished by law. These are New York,
Pennsylvania and Ohio. The contract sys-
tenn has also been entirely abolished recent
| ly in California and New Jersey. In these
States the piece plan has been substituted.
