Care. Worriment and Unrest,

Look around you in the cars, in the
theatres, in the churches, on the streets,
how many. many men and women do you
see the lines on whose faces betray worri-
ment and unrest? A man is worried be-
cause he can't make more money; a wom-
ans heart Is eaten up with envy because
her next door neighbor dresses better than
she is able to do; the inner nature Of the
the dude is stirred to its foundations be-
cause the new muStache forcer fails to
show signs that 1t is doing its promised
work; the young woman heart is burning
up with jealousy at the success OF her
rival. and so on through all classes Of peo-
pie in every grade of society.
Now. care and worriment are deadly
enemies to long life and happiness No
man can hope to live long. or to be even
moderately happy. unless he makes up his
mind TO give scant welcome to these per-
sistent visitors he must learn to accept
situations which he cannot avoid He can

Rio coffee has become the standard article
in the trade, and has averaged II Ia cents n
pound for the year. Pork has averaged S14. so
a barrel. Flour has averaged S4.25 a barrel
for Minnesota straight winter wheat, which
is the lowest price known. The average
wholesale price of peaches by the can has
been S1-2 cents during 1887, as against IA
cents in 1886. Sugar has also declined, tho
average price for granulated being about z
cents a pound
On the whole, as can be seen by a glance at
the chart, the tendency has been toward
lower and lower prices for food, until now it
is scarcely possible to go lower without the
danger of adulteration, which has already
accompanied the decline in prices to an
alarming degree.
To combat this evil of adulteration the
National Board of Trade has drafted "a bill
to prevent the adulteration of food and
drugs" To aid in the pushing of this bill
through congress a National Pure Food con-
vention will assemblein Wizards hall, Wash
ington, on Jan. 10, when it is expected all the
health authorities of the country, as well as
the honest producers of food and drugs, will
be represented. 1t is claimed that the object
of legislation upon this subject is not only to
prevent deception, but to furnish authoritive
information to the public so as to nullify the
operations of ignorant and sensational alarm
lists, who damage the business interests of the
country as much as do the evils of which
they complain.

There was not much charming in the treat

their fangs extracted. There are, 1 believe,
however, authenticated accounts of men who
handle unmutilated cobras. The first real
cobra I saw was while walking along n road.
On a bank beyond the ditch a little naked
boy was sitting, so black as evidently to be-
long to one of the aboriginal or outcast
races. At his feet in the dry ditch n large
snake was moving along and tho child
quietly watching it. Thinking from his APP
pearance that he might be the son of a snake
charmer, and the snake a tame one, 1

up, drowned, or else driven from their holes
to take refuge on high ground. During one
flood l found two cobras up in the branches
of n thorny acacia tree. The largest of tho
two We attacked and killed with long BAN
boos. He was over five feet long, and the
biggest cobra l have ever seen.
