Fun at Home.

There is nothing like it to be
found-no, not if you search the
world through. l want every posi-
BILE amusement to keep the boys
home evenings. Never mind if they
do scatter books and pictures, coats,
hats and boots Never mind if they
do make noise around, with their
whistllng and hurrahing! We would
stand aghast if we could have Wis
ion of the young men gone to utter
destruction for the very reason that,
having cold, disagreeable, dull, stiff
firesides at home, they sought
amusement elsewhere. Don't let
them wander beyond the mother ;
influence yet awhile. The time will
come, before you think. when you
would give the world TO have your
house tumblcd by the dear hands of
those very boys; when your heart
shall long for their noisy steps IN the
hall, and their ruddY checks laid up
to yours; when you would rather
hear their jolly whistle than the
music of all the operas, when you
would gladly see dirty carpets-ah
live without carpets at all, but to
have their bright strong forms be-
side you once more.
Then play with and pet them.
Praise Johnnle's drawing, Bessie's
music, and baby's first attempt at
writing his name. Encourage Tom
to chop off his stick of wood, and
Dick to persevere IN making his hen
coop. If one shows talent for
figures, tell him he is your famous
mathematician, and if another loves
geography, tell him he is sure to
make a great traveller, or foreign
minister. Become interested in
their pets, be they rabbits, pigeons
or dogs. Let them help you In dec
orations: send them to gather moss
es, grasses, and bright autumn
leaves, to decorate their room when
the snow Is all over the earth, and
you will keep yourself young and
fresh by entering into joys, and
keep those joys innocent by your
knowledge of them.-N. ". Chris

NUMBER lS.

SLOWLY but surely Is the spirit of
communism taking root and spread
Ing its influence in this country, poi
soning and blasting whatever it
touches. A specimen of its exis-
terce and influence was manifested
recently in this city by the action of
the school board in regard to school
books. A proposition was made to
furnish free books as we'll as free
schools, and of twenty-one members
of the board present ten voted for
the measure, and it Is said they
boast loudly they will carry it soon
er or later. Suppose they do, what
next? Why, of course, it will be to
furnish free clothing suitable for at
tendance at school. Why not?
There are as strong pleas for the one
as for the other, and no good reason
for nor justice in either. In both
cases it would be glarlng injustice
be what the justices of the United
States court once said OF the tariff,
"legalized robbery" The same
principle carried to its full extent
would require that the children be
furnished with free food. Why not?
Food is as necessary as clothing and
clothing as necessary as books.
Make one free, why not make all
free? If books are furnished free
it may be expected that from 80 to
so per cent. more will be required
than otherwise, as the children, act
ing on the principle of ''come easy,
go easy" would become careless, the
parents would also become careless,
as the books cost them nothing, and
as consequence the books would be
torn, soiled or lost In less than half
the time they need be. Perhaps the
publishers and sellers of school
books, having an eye to increased
gains, advocate the free book plan.
That there is jobbery in the case IL
believed, and, if carried out, that
jobbery will become robbery. Le-
galizing it will not change its nature
or character. But if the tax payers
quietly submit, then they deserve
nothing better.-S. Louis Christian

How to Drink Milk.

Some complain that they cannot
drink milk without being distressed
by It," The most common reason
why milk is not well borne is due TO
the fact that people drink it too
quickly. If glass of it IS swallow
ed hastily 1t enters into the stomach
and then forms in one solid, curdled
mass, difficult of digestion. If, on
the other hand, the same quantity is
slipped, and three minutes at least
are occupied in drinking it, then on
reaching the stomach it is so dlyid-
ed, that when coagulated, as it must
be by the gastric juice, while diges-
ton is going on, instead of being in
one hard, condensed mass, upon the
outside of which only the digestive
fluids can act, it is more in form of
sponge, and in and out of the entire
bulk the gastric juice can play more
freely and perform its Junction.

DoEs the moderate drlnker or card
player for amusement ever think of
the influence he is exerting upon
others forIevil! He may be successful
in his attempt to live sober life and
yet have been a dram drinker all the
time. But if he has kept up his
moderate drinking for any consider
able length of time, he may count
those who have fallen, partly through
his influence and example, by the
dozen. He may have been 4 card play
er for years, and never have played
except for fun. yet in so doing he
has set an example in which he may
lead others to go farther than he has
ever done. If he thinks it no harm
to indulge in game for amusement
at questionable places, the ole fol-
lowing in his footsteps may be tempt
ed, in an evil hour, to 60 further
and play for money. 1t is said the
love of gambling steals more imper-
ceptibly upon its victims than does
any other vice. 1t soon works a
spell that cannot be resisted and
rushes its victim into q maelstrom,
which soon works his financial and
moral rum,

BURDETTE ON POLITICS.
1t DistOrts The Features to Kick When
You are Dead.

Yes, my son, know the political
fever has already commenced, and it
will grow hotter with the weather,
but don't you meddle with politics.
When you go into politics, as l am
grieved to see you have already done
to the extent of running two suits of
clothes with kerosene oil and the
coat of your stomach with whlskey-
it would be much better for you to-
day socially, morally and financially,
had you drank the kerosene and
poured the whlskey on the clothes,
although your patriotic exhilaration
would have suffered-but when yon
do go into real politics, when you
triumph, do so graciously, magnani-
mously, mercifuIly. But when the
hour Of defeat comes, as come it will,
let me advise you to die easy. Don't
kick. Don't struggle after you are
dead. 1t distorts the countenance,
contracts the limbs, lends the fea-
lures hideous expression of agony
and hate and terrifics the mourners.
When your time comes die easy.
Don't kick against manifest destiny.
Remember that it is hard to fight
the fates. Now, when l read the re-
turns after a certain election that ef-
fected me rather personally, quiet
ly laid my handsome form down in
calm, but sorrowful resignation. l
closed my eyes and folded my hands
on my bosom and remained passive
and quiet, and there wasn't pret-
tier Republican remains in all
this broad land than your late lament
ed subscriber. 1t took great many
thousand Republicans ten or twelve
days to attain my state of sublime
composure, but they came to it at
last, and see how much time they
lost. They kept anticipating the
resurrection. Every time triumph
ant Democrat blew his rejoicing horn
they thought 1t was the trumpet OF
the Republican Gabriel and jumped
up in their grave clothes and went
prancing around, and finally had TO
be knocked in the head with an Off
cial count before they would submit
to the undertaken. / believe in
pluck, my son; believe in grit; l
have an abiding faith i'll sand, l
like to see q man fight who doesn't
know he is licked, but 1 don't like to
see a man come bowling back into
the ring after he has been knocked
out and the other fellow has gone
away with the gate money, Die easy
my son; you'll look better, your
friends and enemies alike will admire
you all the more for it, and you'll be
in better condition for getting up
when your party Gabriel sounds the
trumpet. Now bear this in mind.
Paste l. Iii your hat. don't know
much about politlcs-I wish l had as
many dollars as don't know much
about politics-but what / do know
/ know for keeps, and know it is
always becoming for the party that
gets its neck cut off to die easy and
90 off gracefully.

Grander than Gladstone

The one
Res solute,
Resistless
Foe that confronted Gould and
GouIdism in the United States Senate
was Allan G.. Thurman. By bribery
of the most brazen type, the Pacific
railway companies had succeeded in
capturing from a Republican CON-
gress precisely the legislation they
wanted, and the Gould crowd of cul-
lions were plling fortune on top of
fortune as a result. A decade ago,
not one of these subsidized lines of
transportation was preparing to pay
its indebtedness to the general gov
erment. This fact brought Thurman
to the fore. He sprang the sinking
fund act upon the senate, through
which the corporations were to be
forced into paying certain part of
their receipts yearly until their debt
TO the United States had been liquid
ated. Gould grew furious, and
swore by the big horn spoon that the
companies wouldn't pay
Dollar or
Dime,
But he soon found that he had met
his master, and, Notwithstanding he
summoned lobby, and scattered his
shekels, and hired Blaine to fight his
fight, he was defeated by the royal
old Roman, whose
Brains and
Bravery
Downed the whole combination of
gilded and gIittering criminals at one
fell swoop, and sent the bill forward
