CURIOUS TANGLE.
DANGER OF BEING A HUMAN BEING.

Heredity is puzzle. 1t seems to
be easier in this world to inherit had
qualities and traits than good, but
both sorts make such leaps and iumps
and are so inclined to 90 off on col
lateral lines that the succession il
difficult to calculate. The race Is
linked together in a curious tangle
SO that is almost impossible to fix the
responsibility. Defects or vices or
virtues will not always 90 in n
straight line. The children of deaf
mutes, for example, are not apt to be
deaf mutes, but the cousins OF these
children may be deaf mutes, show
ing, it is said, that some remote an
cestor OF both had some mental or
physical defect which has been trans
mitted to his posterity, though not in
the form in which he was afflicted.
In most cases we cannot do any,
thing about it: the older our ciyiIiza-
ton becomes the more complicated
and intricate are our relations so
that it has already become danger
Gus business to be human being at
all. 1t is not always certain that il
man eats sour grapes his children's
teeth will be set on edge, but the et-
feet OF the sour grape diet may skip
generation or two or appear in a
collateral line. We try to study this
problem in our asylums and prisons.
and we get great many interesting
facts, but they are too conflicting to
guide legislation. The difficulty is
to relieve a person of responsibility
for the sins of his ancestors without
relieving him of responsibility for
his own sins. Chicago Tribune.

LOOKING ON THE DARK SIDE.

1t is only when man is so consti-
tuted that he worries over what he
cannot help that there is danger Of
self murder. This kind OF worry has
tendency TO unbalance q mans
mind, and then he is liable to do any
thing. An intense, nervous man,
with disposition to look ON the
dark side of life, will worry himself
about anything. Sometimes it is
business, again it is some pet object,
or it may be soma trifling thing.
Whether his suicide is preceded by q
disappointment, the loss of money
or some small annoyance, the fact
should be considered that he was
from the first victim of the worry.
ing habit, and therefore on the road
to insanity.
When a man finds the habit OF
worrying growing upon him he should
make vigorous effort to throw il
off. Let him cultivate philosophi-
cal Indifference. He will find that
the best way to keep trouble at a
distance is to go through the world
with a smile on his face. No great
harm will ever come to such man.
He may never be very rich or sue
cessful, but he will always get along,
and live out his allotted time upon
the earth. This may not be very
bright prospect, but it is infinitely
better than the fate in store for the
man who worries himself over every
thing that goes wrong.-Atlanta

BETTER THAN A PLATFORM.
Thurman's Honorable Record Against
Corruption.

faai.
The Chicago Herald alludes to
Judge Thurman's record against the
corrupt jobs that prevailed under
republican rule and says: "Thur-
man was permitted to bring before
the country bill which aimed at the
Pacific railroad robbers. Ere Blaine
and other notorious tools of those
interest could smother this bill, it
had become a matter OF public dis
cussion. Then ensued the battle be-
tween honesty and corruption that
indellibly branded all congressional
servants Of the money kings, and left
them, as Blaine was left, forever un-
fitted for the sufirages of the people.
The Thurman act was the first victo-
ry of the people over oligarchy. 1t
could not have been won without
Thurman. As it was, he failed to
defend himself from the reprisals Of
Gould and Stanford, and to-day
Stanford and Payne-PaciGc rail-
road and Standard oil-sit in the
senate while Thurman prosecutes the
forgers and ballot box suffers who
aided in the misrepresentation of
Ohio.
Judge Thurman has record that
is worthy of being placed side by
side with that of president Cleveland.
The ticket means reform whether we
consider the candidate for the first
or the second place. The names Of
Cleveland and Thurman will be a
guarantee Of purity of government.
These names speak more than plat
form could, for the promises of
platform might be violated, but our
president and president candi-
dates have only to do in the future
as they have done in the past to in,
sure best possible government for the
people,

RUSHING FARMERS.

There 10 one fact which some farm
ers will never fully learn, or if they
do they will never act upon the
knowledge-that the yield Of their
crops depends more upon the man
ner they are worked than anything
else. Intelligent cultivation reduced
to its last analysis simply means rap
id work. The plant or vine will al
ways fruit, or make an effort to do
so, at some certain, and almost, in
variable age. Al. the farmers ener-
ny should be addressed to the work
Of the growing crop, as upon the size
and condition of the plant at the
fruiting age depends the size and
quantity Of the fruit. That is one
reason why Indifferent laborers fail
to reap more bountiful haryests
they fail to rush things, and crops
go whole weeks without work at the
mos critical stage. The most criti-
cal stage Of growing crop is from
its earliest appearance to the fruit
age age. Fifty acres worked we'll
and at proper times will always re-
turn more than one hundred indif-
ferently cultivated. Intensive farm
ing consists in intensely rapid and,
therefore effective, work, more than
anything else. Intensive farming,
therefore, is the frequent working Of
crops.

HUNTS FOR WIVES.

Perchance you think that your
husbands disposition is much chang
ed; that he is no longer the sweet
tempered, ardent lover he used to be.
This may be a mistake. Consider
his struggles with the world-his
everlasting race with the busy com
petition of trade. What is it makes
him so eager in the pursuit of gain
so energetic by day, so sleepless
by night-but his love of home, wife
and children, and Q dread that their
responsibility, according to the light
in which he has conceived it, may be
encroached upon by the strife of ex-
istence. This is the true secret of
that silent care which preys upon the
hearts Of many men, and true it is,
that when love is least apparent, it
is nevertheless the active principle
which animates the heart, though
fears and disappointments make up
cloud which obscqres the warmer
element. AS above the clouds there
is glorious sunshine, while below are
showers and gloom, so with the con-
duct of man-behind the gloom of
anxiety is bright fountain of high
and noble feeling. Think of this in
those moments when clouds seem to
lower upon your domestic peace, and
by tempering your conduct accord
ingly, the gloom will soon pass away,
and warmth take its place.

OUR RESOuRCES.

When you are reckoning up the
material resources of the South its
cotton fields, it's iron and coal mines
says the New York Herald, it will
never do to omit magnificent pine
forests. Michigan has hitherto held
the championship as a timber coun-
try, but its glory is slowly waning
while that Of the South is just dawn
ing. In Louisiana, for example, the
woods are full Of lumberman. Two
years ago a saVmill was seldom seen
and axemen's camps were few and
far between, like angels visit. To-
day, however, no matter in what de
rection you ride, you hear the ever
lasting racket of the circular saw and
the resonant sound of the steel as it
dooms the big tree, There is money
in that yellow pine, and Northern
capital has notbeen slothful in find
ing it out. Louisiana folks are in a
jubilant frame Of mind just now, be,
cause they have the timber, and
quantity Of it, and the prospect o.
getting it to market at a fair price

SMART DOG.

A few days ago the new Bishop of
Waitzen, in Hungary, was sitting at
dinner in his own house with seven
friends, when, all at once, small
dog belonging to him ran up, and,
Selling the tail of his coat, tried to
pull him toward his bedroom door,
which opened to the dining roo n.
AT first he drove the animal away.
but it whined piteously, and his
guests advised him to see what it
wanted. The bedroom door was
thrown open and by the light from
the dining room the bishop and his
friends discovered man hidden un-
der the bed, armed with large
knife. He was dragged out and
made to confess that he had escaped
from the town Jail and was bent on
robbery.
