Agsin ia the politician abroad in the

every village and hamlet as he
descants on the meri Of his favorite
candidate. But he has had but a
poor show in our town for the past
three weeks, political interest, or, we
might cay, all interest, has been alb
sorbed by the interest which is taken
in a revival which has been going on
at the methodist Church at this place
for the past three weeks. There have
been near fifty conversions, among
whom ara some of the best citizens OF
our neighborhood. The religious feel
ing is sweeping like tidal wave over
the entire community. Often the
building is found too small 10 accom-

in a quiet way.

Opinions of the Message.

Washington Corr. Baltimore Americana
The members tonight have but one
opinion of the message. That is ex-
pressed in one word-"Vague."
Some of them abreviate the title and
call it "Mess." 1t does not give sat-
isfaction to Morrison and his crowd
nor to Randall, for they said the tar
iff was beautifully straddled. There
was much merriment in the House
when the sentence in regard to the
tariff was read. The free traders
were very attentive. Morrison and
Randall sit in the same row, and only
two seats apart. AS the reading
proceeded, and it was shown that the
President had not been as pronounc-
ed as Morrison desired, some of his
friends began to poke him, and
laugh. But when the sentence was
read-"In readjusting the burdens of
federal taxation, a sound public pol
icy requires that such of our citizens
as have built up large and important
industries under present conditions
should not be suddenly, and to their
injury, deprived of advantages to
which they have adapted their bust
ness"-Mr. Randall learned over and
gave Morrison a good poke in the
back, and both looked at each other
and laughed. Even Carlisle smiled
at the skillful manner in which
Cleveland has evaded the issue. The
only pronounced opinion was on civil
service reform. The few Democrats
left in the House when that portion
was read got up in disgust, and said
naughty words about the President,
and left. "There is but one single
opinion expressed which could be
used for political effect by either
party" said prominent member to-
night, "the whole message is poor
and vague"

The Habit OF Good Breathing.

Tight dressing, though the most
serious hindrance to good breathing,
is not the only obstacle, There are
careless ways of sitting or standing
that draw the soulders forward and
cramp the chest; and it is as hard for
the lungs to do good work when the
chest is narrow and CONSTRUCTED as it
is for a loosely. bandaged hand to set
a copy of clear, graceful penmanship.
Then there are lazy ways of breath
ing, and one.sided ways of breath
ing, and the particularly bad habit Of
breathing through the mouth. Now
the nose was meant to breath through,
and it is marvelously arranged for
filtering the impurities of the air
and for changing it to suitable tenn
perature for entering the lungs. The
mouth has no such apparatus, and
when air is swallowed through the
mouth instead of breathed through
the nose, it has an injurious effect up
on the lungs.
A story is told of an Indian who
had q personal encounter with a
white man much his superior in size
and strength, and who was asked
afterward if he was not afraid. me
never afraid of man who keeps
his mouth open," was the immediate
reply. Indeed. breathing through
the mouth gives foolish and weak
expression to the face, as you may
see by watching one asleep with the
mouth open.
1t may be noted that an an@mic,
or low condition of the blood is sci.
dom found where there is an estab.
lished habit of full, deep breathing

A Suggestion to the President.

reinstating Benton Dem. in spite of
a great deal of political activity on
the part of Benton (Dem.). and the
other declining to reinstate Stone
fRep.) because of little political &C.
tiyity on the part of Stone (Rep.).
President Cleveland would do well
to issue the following proclamation
In view of the fact that the fatted
calf has just been killed for the delec-
tation of the Hon. M. E. Benton,
prodigal son of Missouri, and that
the said Hon. M. E. Benton has been
cordially invited to draw up to the
table and help himself to the veal
and in view of the antithetical fact
that one Stone, prodigal son of Penn
sylvania, has been banished to the
outer darkness and the bitter cold, I
have thought it wise to publish this
explanatory statement Tor the guld-
ance of other Federal office-holders
who would fain have their official
days to be long in the land. A wicked
and adulterous generation asserts that

SATURDAY, DEC. IL, 1886.
Congress convened on Monday.
This is the short session, ending
March 4th, 1887.
The Message.

1t is said that a nation is happy
that has no history. 1t may also be
said that za.e>nstion IS happy when
presidents messages are dull. There
are no warlike foreign relations, no
new departures of national policy
proposed. Nay, little is now said by
the President that has not been all
talked out long ago.
He recommends the reduction of
taxation. because the surplus revenue
accommodating in the treasury is a
source of evil. but he says that in re-
vising the tariff care should be taken
not to injure the manufacturing in
terests that have grown up under
protection. This is about what he
said in his message last year. He also
renews his communications of last
year asto the suspension of the law for
the compulsory coinage Of silver. He
thinks that 1.-THE operation of the law
relating to our civil service has added
the most convincing proof of its
necessity and usefulness )" but he
thinks that it is Exceedingly strange
that the scope and nature of this re-
form are so little understood, and
that so many things not included in
It's plan are called by its name" 1t
must be admitted that the manner in
which civil service reform has been
carried out in the division of federal
patronage in some of the states is
we'll calculated to cause no little be-
wilderment in the public mind.
There is one admirable recommen-
dation made by the President which
has the charm of novelty. He thinks
that the government ought to assume
the debt of the bankrupt Freed
NAME Savings Bank" and pay off
the depositors. The amount required
for this is S1,291 ,744.5O-a very
small sum to wipe off a big disgrace.
This bank being instituted under
governmental initiative, the ignor-
ant freedom, freshly emancipated
from bondage, were induced to de-
post their savings of wages-as they
supposed, with the government. The
failure of that bank was peculiarly
discreditable to those concerned, and
many of the poor freedman were de-
prived of all their property. Some
of them have died in want while
waiting for the redress of that great
wrong. 1t now seems strange that
the government did not long ago
adopt this means of justice to the de-
luded persons who suffered loss by
trusting in the government.-Balto.
