Obscurity of Birth.

1t is only shallow.minded pretenders
who make either distinguished origin q
matter or personal merit or obscure orr
gin a matter of personal reproach. A
man who is not ashamed of himself, need
not be ashamed of his early condition.
It did happen to me to be born in log
cabin, raised among the snow drifts of
New Hampshire, at period so early
that when the smoke first rose from its
rude chimney and curled over the frozen
hills there was no similar evidence of
white mans habitation between it and
the settlements on the rivers of Canada.
It's remains still exist; I make it an
annual visit. I carry my children to it
and teach them the hardships endured
by the generations before them. I love
to dwell on the tender recollections, the
kindred ties, the early affections and the
variations and incidents which mingle
with all know of this primitive family
abode; I weep to think that none who
then inhabited it are now among the liv-
ing; and if ever I fail in affectionate
veneration for him who raised it, and
defended it against savage violence and
destruction, cherished all domestic COM
forts beneath its roof, and through the
fire and blood of seven years Revolu.
tionary War shrunk from no toll, no sac.
rifce, to serve his country and to raise
his children to a condition better than
his own, may my name and the name Of
my posterity be blotted from the memory
of mankind.-Daniel Webster.

Industry Wins.

Everybody knows how difficulties stand
in the way Of a young man who is in
search of employment. There are thous,
ands of young fellows who are complain
ing how hard it is to obtain position.
And yet the business man who has q
vacancy in his Office finds it hard to fill it
satisfactorily. Many good places to day
are waiting for the right men to enter and
develop them.
There are too many young men who
have not the industry and fidelity to COM
mand success by deserving it. They are
looking out for short hours, easy occupa-
tion, and good salary. When they
work, their chief object seems to be to get
through as quickly as possible, and go
away for what they call good time.
This is not the way 10 become business
men, or to accomplish anything in the
world. It is not young fellows of this
kind who control railroads, manage news
papers, and build up great enterprises.
Fortunately there are some boys of q
different stamp who can stand long hours j;
who are not always thinking of good
time; who are ready to "lend hand.'
There is room for them, and work for
them to do.
Such boys grow into men like those
who have raised their country to its
present pitch of greatness and prosperity.

Dangerous Counterfeit.

INDIANAPOLIS, March 30.--Mr. Balm,
of Goodland, placed under arrest by the
government officials for passing counter.
felt silver certificates ($5), has presented
a $4,000 bond, and he will probably be
released. His companion, Sapt, sc far
has not been so fortunate. Major Carter,
who made the arrest, came to have infor-
nation that 1000 of the spurious stuff
was get afoat in Chicago before its char.
acter was discovered, and reports from
other parts of the country show that it
has been plentifully circulated. In this
city the distrust is so great that banks
will not touch fve.dollar silver certifi'
Gates, unless absolutely certain they are
genuine. Something of its dangerous
character may be Judged from an Incl.
dent in the marshals Office this morning,
when an average judge of money was
handed ten certificates by Major Carter,
one of which was genuine, and he made
eight guesses before he picked out the
good one. There have been several cases
where genuine bills have been rejected
by the banks 80 universal is the distrust,
and SO extremely dangerous is this
counterfeit that there is belief that the
government will have to call in the
entire issue. It takes skillful expert to
detect the differences without q minute
examination.

Sex In Sin.

One of the speakers at the woman's
international councilin Washington pray
ed that the time might come when these
would be "no sex in crime,". referring to
the fact that when man and woman had
sinned together, the punishment of the
latter is the greater and more lasting.
1t is possibly true that there should be
no sex in crime, but it would not be bad
idea for the woman's council to discuss
question of who has made this difference,
who is it that makes the punishment of
women greater than that of men. The
men have not done it. Under the laws
made by men-women are not the oppres.
sed. The woman is never punished for
the seduction ofthe man, though the fault
is in many cases equal. Men have done
all they could to protect women.
Women themselves are to blame, and
they alone, for the distinction made. It
is women who hunt down erring sisters
and who promptly forgive an erring man.
Laws cannot remedy the evil. Women,
by a different creed in private life, may
do 30.
No subject can be more pro6tably
discussed by the woman's international
council than that of ''sex in crime."-

Easter Eggs.

It is well-known fact that eggs have
figured in mythology, and have or have
not had symbolical meaning in certain
pagan systems. But it is quite true that
there is no traceable connection between
them and the eggs which are the subject
of this note; mere resemblance not being
enough to prove identity Of origin. AS
for Easter eggs, the date for their intro.
duction is unknown, but the egg as g.
symbol of hope was recognized by St.
Augustine, and probably at still earlier
date. For our present purposes it will
oufice to note its association with sacred
seasons.
l. To this day Jews at the Passover
introduce an egg as symbol of their
bondage in Egypt and wonderful deliv.
erance.
2. In the church there was a festival of
eggs on the Saturday before the Shrove
Tuesday, but the meaning of this is
doubtful, though perhaps it can be ex.
planned.
8. The Paschal or Easter egg was bless.
ed by the priest, and at the termination of
the lenten feast was, and perhaps in some
places still is, desired as the first food
eaten after the conclusion of Lent.
The second and third instances seem to
Indicate that eggs were regarded as proper
for the transition from ordinary food be.
fore Lent to its resumption after Lent.
1t may, however, be stated that the Pas
chal egg was certainly regarded, as
resurrection symbol, especially in antici>
patton of the resurrection of the Saviour.
This last point seems evident from the
form of blessing in the Roman Catholic
church, where the words "oii account of
the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ"
are to be seen.
The statement of a learned German
writer agrees with this, for he says: "The
egg as a symbol of the resurrection of
Jesus, who broke forth from the grave as
chicken from the shell, has been from
very ancient date an Easter gift with
Christians who wish each other prosperity
at the resurrection of the Saviour. The
practice of dyeing Easter eggs is of uncer.
tain origin; but it is very widely extend
ed, and has been thought to be derived
from the Jews, whose Passover occurs at
the same time as our Easter.-London
Queen.

May do for a stupid boys excuse but
what can be said for the parent who
sees his child languishing daily and fails
to recognize the want of tonic and
blood-purifer? Formerly, a course OF
bitters, or sulphur and molasses, was the
rule in well-rcgulated families but now
all intelligent households, keep Ayers
Sarsaparilla, which is at once pleasant
to the taste, anu the most searching and
effective blood medicine ever discovered.
Nathan s. Cleveland, 81 E. Canton ST.,
Boston, writes: "My daughter, now q
years old, was in perfect health until o
year ago when she began to complain OF
fatigue, headache, debility, dizziness,
indigestion, and loss of appetite. / con.
cluded thatall her complaints originated
in impure blood, and induced her to take
Ayers Sarsaparilla. This medicine soon
restored her blood-making organs to
healthy action, and in due time rcestab-
lished her former health. I find Ayers
Sarsaparilla most valuable remedy for
the lassitude and debility incident to
spring time"
