accomplished domestic and social head
than this young Pennsylvania girl. Ii

Watching.
A general after gaining great VIC
tory, was encamping with his army for
the night. He ordered sentinels to be
stationed all round the camp as usual.
One of the sentinels as he went to his
station, grumbled to himself and said,
"Why could not the general let us
have a quiet nights rest for once,
after beating the enemyP I'm sure
there's nothing to be afraid Of" The
man then went to his station and stood
for some time looking about him. II
was q bright summers night, with a
harvest moon. but he could see nothing
anywhere, so he said, II am terribly
tired, l shall sleep for just five
minutes, out of the moonlight, under
the shadow of this tree" So he lay
down.
Presently he started up, dreaming
that some one had pushed lantern
before his eyes, and he found that the

him through a hole in the branches of
the tree above him.
The next minute an arrow whizzed
passed his car, and the whole field be-
fore him seemed alive with soldiers in
dark green coats. who sprang up from
the ground where they had been
silently creeping onward, and rushed
toward him. Fortunately the arrow
had missed him; so he shouted aloud
to give the alarm, and ran back to
some other sentinels. The army was
thus saved; and the soldier said, II
shall never forget as long as live,
that when one is at war, one must
watch.'
Our whole life is war with evil.
Just after we have conquered it, it
sometimes attacks us when VIC least
expect it. For example, when we have
resisted the temptation to be cross and
pettish and disobedient, sometimes
when we are thinking chow good we
have been!" comes another sudden
temptation, and we are not on our
guard, and do not resist it. Jesus
says to us, "Watoh and pray, that We
enter not into temptation"

Facts for Workingmen.

The opinion of Judge Kelly that
the unrestricted immigration of the
least desirable class of foreigners is
chiefly responsible for the present la
bor trouble in this country, receives
emphatic confirmation from the sta
tistics furnished by the census and
from other sources. Some of the
facts are thus formulated by cores
pondent of the Interior newspaper Of
Chicago:
]. Nearly or quite go per cent oftlle
factory wage workers of this country
are foreign born.
2. Nearly or quite 20 per cent of the
members of the trades unions are for
eign born.
8. Their rules, forbidding the en-
plOyment of more than very small
percentage of apprentices, effectually
prohibit large majority oftheir own
children, as well as the children of
American parents, from learning a
trade.
4. All these people came here to
better their condition, and nearly all
are better clothed and better fed than
they could have been in the countries
from which they came.
5. AS the magnet draws soft iron,
so better condition will continue to
draw emigration.
6. 1t costs only from $50 to $50 to
bring an emigrant from London,
Liverpool. Hamburg or Dublin to
Chicago.
Z. Not more than 5 percent of the
laboring classes of the old world,
whose condition could have been i'm
proved by coming to this country,
have as yet come.
s. If the price of labor is increased
these people will come over more
rapidly than heretofore.
8, There are from 10 to 20 percent
more wage workers now in this coun'
try than can find steady employment
at present wages.
The point of particular interest in
this: That the present effort of work.
ingmen is simply to increase wages,
and if this is accomplished, no good
can result, for it will induce larger
immigration. But it cannot be ac-
complished except by natural agen
cies. Supply and demand always has
regulated prices, and always will,
wherever law and order exist.

Hints for Poor SIeepers.

Poor sleepers will find it adyanta-
geous often to raise the head of the
bed a foot higher than the foot, and
then sleep on tolerabIy thick hair
pillow, so as to bring the head higher
than the shoulders. The object is to
make the work of the heart in throw
ing the blood to the brain harder, so
it will not throw so much. A level
bed, with the head almost as low as
the feet, causes an easy flow of blood
to the brain and prevents sleep.
Persons who find themselves rest
less and unable to sleep at night
would do we'll to place the head of
the bed towards the North. as it is
undoubtedly great conductive to
health. A hot mustard foot bath at
bed time is beneficial in drawing the
blood from the head. and thus induc-
ing sleep, Sponge the entire length
Of the spine with hot water for ten or
fifteen mlnues before retiring. This
will often induce a good nights
sleep.
Active outdoor exercise, and avoid.
ances of excessive and long continued
mental exertion, are necessary in all
cases Of sleeplessness. Where these
means fail, such remedies as are
known to diminish the amount of
blood in the head should be resorted
tO-of course under the direction of
competent physician. Opium, chic
raj. etc. increase the quantity of blood
in the head, and are highly injurious.
Their use should never be resorted to.

A contract was lately concluded by
the Mexican government with Mr..
Oscar Droege, to plant 1000, 900 trees
in the valley of Mexico, within four
years. The trees specified are chiefly
ash, poplar, acacia. and mountain &C.
dar, with sufficient margin for mis-
cellaneous kinds, according to special
conditions of site and climate; and
the arrangements contemplate the
formation of national nurseries in
which the study of scientific forestry
may be pursued on footing in some
degre commensurate with It's impor.
lance. The valley was densely wood
ed in the time of Montezuma, when
Cortez and the Spaniards entered the
country. But the Spaniards burnt
off and destroyed the timber.-Scien.

Mr.. Gould's country residence at
Irvington was considered by its origs
inal owner, George Dawson Merritt,
the most elegant, attractive and thor

lively interest in the case, and as
long as the calls were limited to once
week they only sympathized. but
when the visits reached FIVE, six, and
even seven times in single week,
the boys felt that something ought to
be done. Accordingly, they put their
heads together and decided to give
him gentle hint to change his lodg-

True happiness seems to consist in

The Opera Hotel.

The finishing touches are now being
put upon the Opera Hotel, and the
proprietor, Mr.. Thelander, will have
a grand opening, and dedicate this
new and beautiful hostelry with apprO-
pirate ceremonies, on Thursday even
ing, August 10Th, as per programme
published in another column of this
issue.
1t is Mr.. Thelander's avowed pur-
pose to establish and maintain a first
class hotel, aud, judging from the
arrangements he has made for the
opening exercises, and his good for
tune in securing the speakers and
managers whose names appear in the
programme, the public has ample
security on which to base the belief
that his purpose will be reached. and
his future guests find in the Opera
Hotel al that can be desired.
With such prospects in view, the
citizens of River Falls can well afford
to give Mr.. Thelander the encourage
ment of their presence on the opening
night, and thus show their apprecia-
ton of his enterprise in erecting so
beautiful a building as a monument Of
his faith in the future prosperity of
our beautiful and growing city. A
general invitation is extended, and it
is hoped the surrounding country will
respond, en- mdsse.
