Should the free trade system be
adopted of course every nation with
whom the United States holds friend
ship would be included in the free trade
proposition.-(Curson Tribune. o
Should the Uni;el Suites government
.repudiite the national debt every nation
with whom the Unitel Stmtes holds
friendship would t once point the
finger OF scorn mt our bonsted freedom
and We would hs hell up as IN example
of the failure Of u republican govern
ment.
There is ms much probability that
the national debt will be repudiated ms
there is that the free trade system will
be adopted in the United States; and
there is as much sense in arguing
against the one measure ns the other.
No one advocates the adoption Of free
trade or the population of the national
debt, aud the Trlbuue's argument is
simply ballerdnsh. o.

If We Would Enjoy Long Life We Mu,
Put On the Brakes.

III we would ENJOY Long Life We Must
Put On the Brakes.
The strain upon man engaged in
active business to-day is five, yes, ten
fold more than it was forty or even
twenty-five years ago. We live in al
age of electricity, and it is rot only
along the wires that the fluid is pas
sing, but it touches SO many currents
of thought and affects SO many business
interests that a keen, bright man is
sensitive to the news of the whole
world. In former times it was the
arrival of the packet ship with thirty
days later news from Europe; then il
was the arrival of the steamship with
six days later intelligence; but now
the morning paper brings the news
which, according to time, is being made
in all parts of the world. 1t is impos-
sible for an active, energetic man to cut
his connection with this ever-pulsating
agent. A flash and he opens dispatch
from a friend in Bombay, and the tink-
ling bell calls him to the telephone to
hear from a business agent in neigh
boring city. He is kept at high pres
sure, he is at market pitch from Janu-
airy to December 81. 1t is no wonder
that men who do not offset this high
tension by judicious repose break down
and are forced to quit work. The
workers of 1888 do more work which is
wearing in one week than their grand
fathers did in a six-month. There is no
danger that man will rust out if he
mas eyes and ears. The bulletin boards
of the newspapers furnish enough sug-
gestive matter each day to keep the
cobwebs from the brain of the most in
different. 1t is evident, we think, that
some new system of living must be
adopted, more frequent release from
the vocations taken, il men are to re-
tain their vigor and not become wrecks
when they should be in the prime of
life. A citizen met, some months since,
in the South, a Boston merchant who
had been in business for forty years
II suppose you are here for your
health said the citizen. .'In one
sense, yes. am in the enjoyment of
excellent health, and l am trying to
keep So" was the reply of the wise
merchant. The unwise merchant gen.
orally waits till his doctor suggests
that, he had better make his will and
take recreation before he concludes
that the amassing of great wealth is no
equivalent for the loss of vital ener-

POETRY OF NATURE.
Our Intelligence Inferior in Some Respects
to the Dumb Animals.


Since nature is so broad and so deep,
SO general and so particular, so inf
nitely great and so infinitely small, we
do well to remember that the warmest,
most constant lover is limited in his
capacity for knowledge and apprecia-
ton. Nor can we be quite sure that
mans intelligence toward nature is at
every point superior to that of his
humble fellow creatures, the dumb
animals. BY how much were we
gamers could we but come at the pri-
vate observations and reflections of
those privileged but silent pensioners
of nature, the beasts and birds! Who
could read us SO sweet a projection on
the pastoral fields as the gentle, Juno
eyed creature who Eliminates in them
from sunrise to dewfall, and all through
the night hours to daylight againo
How | would love to hear the bobolinls
speak out boldly, and tell us about the
delicious privacies of the June mead
ow, in which he has his nndiscovera-
BILE nest, and whose floating superfices
is made up of pannicled grasses,
fringed daisies, buttercups, with dash
here and there of dappled gypsy lilies.
Who could give so well the inventory
of the cabinet curiosities on the lake
beach as could that toiling little .spe-
cialist the tip up. who is forever pa
trolling and peering along the wet
shingle? | am not ashamed to own
that would like to know what truth
the crawfish finds at the bottom of his
well in midsummer, or what cool,
liquid, never rolled contemplation

sheaf of green stuff in his mouth. and

Evolution of the Dinner Pail.

The original dinner pail was a COM
mon little tin pail with a cover. Meat,
bread, pie, pickles and all other solids
were put in it together and no liquids
could be taken unless in bottle. Then
somebody devised a pail with two COM
partments, one pail fitting into another,
and one of them for coffee. Then some
other genius got up pail with four or
six parts, all fitting into each other
and making it possible to carry four or
six articles separate from each other.
All this was discounted by the fellow
who got up pail in which the coffee
could be heated by alcohol at an ex-
pense of cent. A warming compart-
ment was got up by another man by
the use of water and lime, in which
the former was made to Stake the lat
ter, some heat being the result. In
other complicated dinner pals lamps
are fitted for supplying the convenient
heat at dinner time. t Good Housekeep-
