The eight hour system of labor,

have suddenly collapsed, or, at least

of compromises at nine hours, but they
are comparatively few, and can prove
but temporary experiments, and most

business, the system cannot be adopted
by the few only; it must become gen

prices adapted to the change, in order
to be successful.
After the loss of hundreds of thou
sands Of dollars in loss of time, the
strikers have been compelled to re.
sumo operations under the old system
and rates, and under humiliating cir
cumstances, for which they can blame
themselves only, while thousands have
thrown themselves out of good situa

There will be no tritiing with these

THE HoUsE-cLEANING CRAZE.

The mania for annual house cleaning
has been upon us for couple of weeks.
Carpets are being hung up on line in
the yards and whipped and thrashed
without mercy; furniture is turned
outdoors and general chaos reigns
within. The rubbish which has been
accommodating for years is brought out
and assorted over, par to be thrown
into the street, and a part returned to
its hiding place to remain another
year, and then with its additional ac-
cumulations to be again brought out
and undergo similar inspection.
The lord of the house returns to din
ner, only to find his home desoiate.
and he is obliged to content himself
with "cold bite" for dinner, and if
by chance he has invited a friend to
dine with him. his modification knows
no bounds. After tea, he has occasion
to go down town to the "pOst Office"
or . to meet man. and if the "meet.
ing" is prolonged into the small hours
of the night, he has reasonable
ground for excuse, when everything
has been turned down side up at the
home, and he has no comfortable abid-
ing place.

CRoWDING INTO CITIES.

1t does not require a consultation of
the census to prove that the increase
of population is far more rapid in the
cities than in the country; in many
country towns there has been no In
crease for years, while at the same time
many of the cities have been growing
some of them rapidly. This growth
Of the cities in population comes from
The tendency of the country to crowd
into cities. How can this tide of pOpal-
lation be turned back to the farms in
the country? Our wisest men have
been advising the country people these
many years not to change their homes
to the cities, but their advice has not
been needed. It is neither well for
country or city in majority of cases
that changes of this kind are made. It
is found in every city of considerable
size that the majority of paupers who
are public charge once resided in the
country, and mostly had comfortable
living in farming communities. 1t is
a mistaken idea which has induced so
many families to move into cities in
the expectation of finding more remu-
neratiye employment; the reverse is
in great majority of instances true.
In several of the most prosperous
cities, during the last winter, one-tenth
of the population received charitable
aid from the city authorities, and a
considerable of these who were started
on the road to pauperism were former
ly living comfortably in country neigh
borhoods. The knowledge of these
facts will not probably discourage the
movement towards the cities. The
prospect Of starvation does not deter
hundreds who are tired of rural life.
and long for the stir and hustle of the
full town.
Probably one of the drawbacks with
some persons is the loneliness of coun-
try life. Most persons take pleasure
in society. 1t has been well said,
"Man is a social being" Wherever this
lack of society is felt it is of course a
privation. Every country neighbor-
hood can do much to remedy this def
cheney. Organizations for social .ad-
vantages are in almost every farming
community practicable. Where the
agricultural people reside in villages,
as in Germany and in many other
countries in Europe, there are social
advantages which do not exist in the
farming districts in this country. The
people in the villages 60 to their lands
during the day, which often are some
distance away, and return to their
homes at might. Similar arrangements
in agricultural communities are found
in some portions of this country; they
are patterned after the foreign lands
from whence these people came, but
are not likely to be ever general in this
country.

Ten years ago my health began to fail.
I was troubled with distressing Cough,
Night Sweats, Weakness, and Nervous

scribed by different physicians, but

The First Sign

Of failing health, whether in the form OF
Night Sweats and Nervousness, or in a
sense of General WEAKNESS and Loss of
Appetite, should suggest the use Of
Ayers Sarsaparilla. This preparation
is most effective for giving tone and
strength to the enfeebled system, pro-
noting the digestion and assimilation OF
food, restoring the nervous forces to
their normal condition, and for purify
ing, enriching, and vitalizing the blood.
