The question OF increased mail facili-
ties with the South American Republics
comes occasionally to the front, but it
does not stay there. Europe has better
commercial and mail exchanges with
South America than has this govern
ment, and yet there is no direction in
which our commerce could more advan-
tageously extend itself than in the direc-
tion OF South America. Our relations
with the republics below the equator
should be close and liberal. 1t is high
time a change OF policy was made in
this matter.

Learning and Life.

Learning and lie, that which is
known in the world and that which is
to be done in the world, stand over
against each other, and the perpetual
problem is how shall they be brought
together. Like two strong men who
gaze into each others eyes, and know
that they ought to be standing hand
in hand; like two great promontories
which stand and watch each other,
and feel the sea which runs between,
and yet feel under the seas the sweep
of the continuous earth that makes
them one-so learning and life-that
which is known upon the earth
stand gazing upon each other, and
knowing that, however they may be
separated and kept apart, they belong
to each other.

Tho people are, % o general thing,

many of them lack that enterprise and

Farmers in Chester County, Pa, think

the men who will enrich their grounds
and succeed, while those who continue
on in the old way will have to worn
harder year after y ear, and each seasor
realize smaller returns for their labor.
Another drawback is the tenant sys

so much loss to gain. Our wisest edu
