DEAR SrR.-In 1851 broke out with an
attack of Poison Oak. Whether or motif
came back on me during the next three
or four years do not remember, but
from about 1865 to 1885 | suffered most
severely from repeated attacks of this
eruption. The use of some external
remedies gave q relief-twas only tem-
porary-till in 1879 | found that Iodide
of Potassium and Syrup of Sarsaparilla
benefited me not a little. However, even
then | was not cured, for from 1882 10
1886 the attacks were more severe, pro-
longed and frequent than ever. coming
upon me as many as four, and even Ave
times during the year. In the spring of
1885 / took a course of p. p. P, and
from that time | have been free from
eruptions Of this poison. Only once,
early in this month, a few bumps APP
peared on my wrists, but dried up in a
day or two being the dying throes, as il
we're, of this horrid and loathsome dis
ease. After being plagued for about
twenty-five years with Poison Oak | con
slider myself cured, and by the use Of
about one Bottle of p. P. p.

ABOUT LIFE ASSURANCE,

The regular life assurance companies
are not acting with the wisdom of a ser
pent in attacking the friendly societies as
they are now doing both openly and COW
ertly. As the public get to thinking on
the subject of life assurance they quite
naturally ask: Why is it that the friendly
societies can insure their members so
much more cheapIy than can the big
stock companies and the sO-caled mutual
companies? There are those who think
that a part at least Of the answer il TO
be found in the expensive buildings
erected, and the lavish salaries paid by
the big companies. 1t doesn't take men
long to reason it out that all these must
come out of the pockets of those who in
sure, and naturally they think that if all
this waste and Ostentatious extravagance
were stopped their payments would not
need be SO large. The discussion of the
comparative merits of the regular"
companies and friendly societies must of
necessity set the public to thinking more
Of these things, and the more they think.
the worse it will be for the REGULARS,
whose success depends on being able 10
capture their game without alarming it.
Are the friendly societies all they
should be in the way of cheap and safe
mediums of insurance? We fear not;
certainly not in every case. Yet, as far
as we can judge, their defects can be
remedied, and there is no powerful and
selfish interest ever ready to prevent
the needed remedy being applied. The
provision in some policies, which makes
noncompliance with laws and regula-
tions which may be adopted by the soci-
ETY. after the policy is issued, a ground
for canoe. stion, is on the face objection
able. But the Regulars are not wise in
bringing about discussion on this point,
for some of the efforts they have made
to escape payment of just claims have
been glaringly dishonest.
1t may we'll be doubted whether any
scheme of life assurance can be found
which will at once give absolute security.
and the greatest possible cheapness, short
of government life assurance. Against
it will be urged the old arguments of the
conscious and unconscious anarchists:
that governments are not TO be trusted,
and that the Capitalization Of pow er is
dangerous. We have great respect for
the anarchist who advances this argll-
ment because he is an anarchist. and we
have good deal of pity for the man
who. being an anarchist without know
ing it. also puts forward the plea, but at
the same time we maintain that only by
it being undertaken and managed by the
State can We get cheap and safe life as
surance. - Cdnddidn LibOr RefOrmer.

THE DIFFERENCE.

Two babes were born in the self same
town,
On the very same bright day;
They laughed and cried in tneir mothers
arms,
In the very self same way.
And both were rs pure and innocent
As falling flakes of snow;
But one of them lived in the terraced
house.
And one in the street below.
Two children played in the self-same
town,
And both were bright and fair;
But one had her curls brushed smooth
and round.
The other had tangled hair.
Both of the children grew apace,
As all our children grow,
But one of them lived in the terraced
And one in the street below.
Two maidens wrought in the selfsame
And one was welded and loved;
The other saw through the curtains
The world where her sister moved;
And one was smiling happy bride,
The other knew care and woe;
For one Of them lived in the terraced
house,
And one in the street below,
Two women lay dead in the self same
town,
And one had tender care;
The other was left to die alone
On her pallet so thin and bare;
And one had many to mourn her loss,
For the other few tears would flow;
For one of them lived in the terraced
house.
And one in the street below.

signed for it in the rink in which was
being held the Henry George -McGlynn.
Syracuse Convention of last August. My
synpathies We're most decidedly with the
Socialists in that convention, and while
admiring much that has been said and
written by Messrs George and McGlynn,
and feeling that they have the welfare of
humanity at heart, was surprised at the
evidences of opposition to Socialism
shown in that convention by certain
leaders. Rev, McGlynn's severe and
bitter denunciation Of Socialism in his
evening speech, and his pronounced de-
claration of "individualism, under the
State, was most surprising to me in the
St0te-prMectcd "iadirtdHdiiSm,' as are
furnished in the persons of Jay Gould,
Leland Stanford, Thomas Scott, Austin
Corbin, the Nanderbilts, etc, and the
peculiar men with whom they "com-
bine, for purposes of plunder, euphoni-
ously called "busincss associations"
Henry George and his allies but weakly
and foOiiShiy attack the present competl-
tive economic methods while posing as
representatives and defenders of State
protected indiyidualism." If the great
and crushing burdens resting on the
workingmen and women of the country
are not the outgrowth of intensified, le-
galized indiyidualism, pray what are
they?
Henry George makes another great
mistake in supposing that a 'land-taX"
scheme would prove a panacea for our
social troubles, SO long as the power of
the money kings, to levy tribute, goes
unquestiOned Or unchecked! The whole
horde of interest gatherers, would
chuckle over the glorious prospect of
gain, thus augmented. If, as Mr.. George
supposes, "a single tax on land" would
increase the number of buildings and so
lower rent (Which is not clear rates Of
interest rould surely increase in the ratio
of decrease of rent. Not only must land

A PICTORIAL BOYCOTT.
The New York Union Cigarmak ers
Active aud Vigilant.

The strike of the union cigarmak-
ers of New York against re-
duction of wages and the tenement
house system is still in progress.
Extensive preparations are being
made to effectually boycott Jacoby
4 Bookman, the firm who evicted a
large number Of tenants as reported
last week. The Unions committee
has list of the firms customers.
and they will no doubt have some
dealings with union committees
which will not particularly increase
Jacoby q Bookman's trade.
An interesting feature of the
prosecution of this boycott will be
the distribution of photographic re-
productions of Photographic views of
the eviction Of the twenty-five fam
lilies by the greedy firm with the as
sistance of the organized capitalists
obedient servants, the notorious cluE-
bers for which New York is famous.
These pictures will be sent to labor
organizations throughout the coun-
try with the boycott circulars and
list of the scab firms brands.
The scabs are escorted by the po-
lice to protect them from the at
tacks of the small urchins of the
street who take a lively interest in
the strike, and do not fail to shower
volieys of miscellaneous missiles and
anything but hattering epithets upon
the miserable slaves. Union pickets
are stationed along the approaches
to the tobacco factory to persuade
cigar'makers from accepting work,
In which they are quite successful.

VERY SAD.
Chicag0's Wicked Socialists Again
Said to be Numerous.

The daily papers report that the
Chicago Trade and Labor Assembly
is in the hands Of the Socialists by Il
Large majority" and thata split be-
tween the conservatives and radicals
is now inevitable. This would be a
decided loss to the conservatives
whenever they attempt such radical
measures as strikes and paavers in
courts OF arbitration. Again, the
radicals might even continue to en-
lst after being deserted by their
weaker brethren. On the whole it
is better to have a clear understand
ing on the labor question, and the
loss of those who are willing to daily
with their foes is really Il gain.

BOSTON,.
A Socialist Meeting at Which Gron.
lund Lectures.

The Boston Section of the Social
lst Labor Party held n meeting in
Goldman Hall last Sunday afternoon,
to which the public were invited, to
hear a lecture by Laurence Gronund,
of New York. The hall was filled
wit al attentive audience. and it was
evident, from the frequent applause,
that they were generally in sympathy
with the speaker, whose subject was
Socialism in Great Britain, its
Present and its Future"
Socialism,, said he, "has made great
strides everywhere in Europe during the
past ten years, and has spread in coun-
tries where a short time ago il was not
known. All Socialists of all countries
stand on one platform and one doctrine.
German Socialism as defined by Carl
Marx has become the Socialism Of the
world. In Berlin one-thrd of the popu-
tatlon voted in favor of Socialism, and In
France, when Henri RoCheiort resigned
from the Chamber of Deputies, the So
cialistc candidate received 100. 900 votes
against l35, 600 votes for the combined
opposition. This shows the spread of
Socialism.
1t was pleasant thing for me to find
IN England so many educated persons
there who We're Socialists; about half of
them avowedly Socialists and about half
not avowed for fear Of losing their posi-
tions, Among them found ministers of
the church both in England and Scot
land, and ais, professors in the rniversi-
ties,
There are three there in particular
who have devoted themselves to the
cause William Morris, H. NJ. Hyndman
and Annie Besant These three 20 every
where among the working classes and try
to make Socialists, and the working peo-
pie seem perfectly willing to become So
cialists. was at Hyde Park and saw
$4,000 people, | think that was the est
mate, listening to addresses from seven
teen platforms. Two of these platforms
were occupied by advocates of Socialism,
1nd there the interest centerea, and there
the applause was greatest. Many were
no doubt attracted by curiosity, but a
radical London gathering d0esn't applaud
what it does not like ! also saw meet
ing of Northumberland miners, where
10000 of them adopted sociaIistic resolu-
tions.
II am sanguine man about Great
Britain. think Great Britain will first
realize Socialism and America next, and
that it will be done by political methods.
That doesn't necessarily imply that il
will be done peaceably. Morris has made
Socialism respectable in England, but
am very sorry to say that he is opposed
10 political methods, He thinks it will
come by great general strike.
CLONE rule is very important to So
cialisn. The GIadstoneites and the Home
Rulers form a purely democratic party.
When home rule comes, rs it must come,
all these grand questions that refer to
England and Scotland alone, the land
and school questions will come to the
front, and will furnish excellent material
for sociaistic purposes,
"Twenty-Iivc or thirty years from now
there will be elected sucialistic major
ity in the House Of Commons and that
majority can demand a realization OF
Socialism. Then if force oppose this,

WASHINGTON'S BIRTHDAY

The American youth of the pres
ent day doesn't take much stock in
the story Of the cherry tree, the little
hatchct and George Washington.
American business men are too busy
to take rest even when they close
the front doors of their establish
ments, they are often found looking
over their books to see that things
are straight. The workingmen
mourn when they have to take a day
off and lose days wages, just be-
cause George Washington happened
to be born Oh the 22d of February.
