A Point of Honor.
From the London Truth.

From the London Truth
A private letter, it is said, should
never be produced, and as proof of
this the conduct of Sir Robert Peel
toward Mr.. Disraei is cited. Mr..
Disraeli had commenced series OF
venomous personal attacks against
Sir Robertin the House of Commons.
Sir Robert limited that their cause
was tosbe found in his having refused
to give him Office. Mr.. Disraeli indig-
nantly replied that he had never
asked for office, and challenged Sir
Robert to produce one single proof
that he had. Sir Robert had at the
time a letter from Mr.. Disraei asking
him for Office, but neither produced
it nor alluded to it, because his high
sense ofhonor would not allow him
to make use of a private letter, the
production of which would have
crushed his opponent. Had he not
taken this view there would in all
probability have been no Lord Bea-
cons6eld, no Primrose League, no
'speace with honor and no many
other equally Objectionable things

Missions Nearer Home.

The larger number of church mem
bers who take only an apathetic inter
est in foreign missions will derive
much encouragement from the speech
of a Boston clergyman at the con-
vention of Christian Endeavor
Societies at Chicago. "What is the
use, asked this gentleman, "of dis
cussing foreign missions when there
are 10000 foreign infdels and idol
worshipers landing on our shores
every month. There is ample room
for foreign missionary labor right in
the United States. Boston, with
100000 people, has no more than
$4,000 members of Protestant
churches; New York with it's 2, OOO,-
900 people, has less than 10000
Protestants, and Chicago, with $780,
600 people, has fewer than 100, 200
Protestants. There are 2,8eO,0OO
people in these three cities who do
not attend our churches. Why. then
should we go to India or China, or
Germany or Italy, to preach the
Gospel? If the Bible is true, those who
do not believe on the Lord Jesus have
nothing before them but eternal
destruction About $4,000 die and
go to perdition every year.

The Suicidal Mania.

That Californian who shot his head
off by tying a handkerchief from the
toes OF his foot to the triggers of a
double-barreled shotgun and the fir
ing both barrels at once, certainly
adopted an ingenious method OF get
ting out of the world. Here is a.
pointer for those who are anxious to-
gain notoriety by jumping from
bridges or going through Niagara's.
rapids in barrels. They can rid the
world of their presence more expedi-
tiously, and at the same time leave
behind a reputation for nerve and
daring, by using this method of self
destruction. There are fashions in
suicide, just as in everything else, and
it is not improbable that the CaIifor-
MIA device may supplant, toa consI-
derable extent, the rope, the pistol,
the explosive oil can, and even that
popular agent of death known as
Rough on Rats.
The alarming increase in the num-
Der of suicides is one of the strangest
phases OF modern times. Those who
have been constant readers of the
daily press for the last few months
cannot have failed to notice that
the mania for suicide appears to be
spreading like an epidemic. Reports
commonly close with the words mo
cause is known 2 and wherever rea-
son is assigned it usually appears so
trivial that man of sound intellect
can only wonder how any sane being
could have found in it a motive for
taking his own life.
Generally it will be found that the
suicide is man who is pulled up
with too great ideas of his own i'm
portance. He persuades himself that
the world neglects to pay proper
tribute to his genius and worth, and
to get even, he removes himself to
the bourne from which no traveller
returns. Poor fool! He forgets that
suicide is a coWardly way of ac-
knoWledging his insignifcance; for
gets that his act will cause a one
day sensation and he will be little.
missed thereafter, and he loses sight.
of the fact that even when the great
est men die the busy, busting world
moves on as before, and their names
soon sink into oblivion There would
be fewer suicides if men were taught
to realize their own insignifcanee,
and made to understand how thor
oughly Indifferent the world is to the
affairs of individuals.

About Red Noses.

a very common error is the belief
that red nose or chin, and pimples
or blossoms" about that part of
the face, are the result of hard drink
ing, and are always Indicative OF
that vice. With many persons this
is the case The acceleration of the
movement of the heart, the rapid
heathing Of the body and the slow
weakening of the blood, three of the
chief results of the use of alcohol up
on the system, too often find express
sion in the unsightly symptoms
mentioned, as well as others more
serious.
These symptoms, says the Analysts
often arise from other and very
different causes. In some instances
exposure to the sunlight will produce
results hardly distinguishable from
those of alcoholic indulgence, and
more especially with those with i'm
pure blood, or whose habits have
not been marked by the regularity
demanded by health. Tight laeing
or even the mere wearing of stays, no
matter how loosely these may fit, or
how soft and flexible the material
from which they are made, frequently
exercise the same effect in every re-
gard. Many a temperate woman
and abstinent maid has acquired the
reputation of being a hard drinker
from the appearance of her face, when,
as a matter offact, her only fault has
been the desire tolook attractive and

Hastings & Dakota railroad. This bill, it is
believed, will be reported and pass the

fixture bill which will pass both houses.
HOUSE. Mr. McCreary, of Kentucky, from
the committee on foreign affairs, reported
for immediate consideration the senate bill
to prevent the coming of Chinese laborers
into the United States with an amendment
repeating the acts of May 6, 1882 and July
5, 1854, the appeal to take effect on the rati-
fcation of the pending treaty.
Mr. Morrow of California. declared that
the passage of the bill was necessary in or
der to protect the people of this country from
the evils of Chinese immigration. While the
pending bill was favored by the people of the
Pacific coast, because they believe it to be q
step in advance of any previous statutory;
law neither the treaty nor the bill met with
their entire approval, because they believed
that the government should reserve to itself
the right.t to legislate whenever occasion re-
quires it, against any foreign immigration
which might be lnimical to the interests of
the United States. 1t Dug hit MOTTO be obliged

A big man and little man entered
a saloon on Michigan avenue near Third

keeper aside and asked:

No"

What, Call me a liar! I want the
change for my two-dollar bill"
The big man winked vigorously at
the barkeeper not to engage in dispute
with the dangerous man, and as con-
sequence change was made on the new
basis and the pair went out to tackle
another place. They found it not far
away. and it was in charge of con-
sumptive-loOking young man. Every
thing went smoothly until Texas Dick
claimed to have laid down a two-dol-

up a club and went for the two, and
they got out doors so fast that they
unhinged the hy-screen. The other

GIRLS SCHOOL DRESS.
Some of the Points That Can Be Urged in
Favor of Plain Costumes.


Favor of Plain Costumes.
No doubt the faculty and trustees of
any girls school would do service to
universal womankind by insisting upon
a plain, sensible costume to be worn
by all pupils during the school years.
Many points can be urged in favor; re-
gard for physiological needs of devel-
oping girls. the freedom of the cos
tune. the sisterhood, which would at
ouce put all young ladies, rich and
poor alike, on the footing of equality
in dress during the years they are in
timately associated beneath the same
roof and in the same work, ending
foolish and Oftentimes bitter rivalry
between those who can, and those who
can not, afford to dress richly; and.
perhaps, no less important point than
the others, reserve the pleasures of
beautiful costuming for the entrance
upon social life, which is really the
beginning of the necessity for indi-
viduality in dress.
While girls are in the schOol-room
their minds should be occupied with its
work and the simple. healthful pleas
ures incidental to harmonious develop
ment of the bodily aud mental powers
which are to make the grand women
later, and a simple costume, varied in
color to save monotony, would conduce
greatly to the benefit of a school or
college course. Make this regulation
dress pretty and attractive, light in
weight, refined and graceful, always
bearing in mind the freedom for devel-
opment of good, sound limbs and mus
Giles; but keep rich fabrics and fine
Jewels for the social debut.
Keep the girls young, and with some
thing always in anticipation, for moth
ing is more disgusting and dishearten-
ing to thoughtful people than the bldse
miss of sixteen, who knows every thing
and doesn't see much in life anyhow
