THE Burning CON STRIFE.

Ne Noticeable Improvement in the Situation
The Advance i'll Rates to be Postponed.
CHICAGO, March 27.-'rhers was little
change apparent in the %" strike to-day
beyond the arrival OF number of switch
men from The east TO take the places of
the strikes. 1t is said that sixty men
came IN last night from the Readiug
road and that they had been distributed
in the yards here and elsewhere. The
company Is endeavoring to handle such
freight as requires immediate attention
and Is still receiving freighs for purely
local points. The lumber district in this
city Is IL bad condition and as ii is busy
season lumbermen will lose considerable
trade. No trouble was experienced in
any part OF the city 20 day. A large num-
Der of specials as well as city police are
guarding yards, crossings, etc. The COM
Pany to-day announced its intention to
POSTPONE indefinitely the restoration of
rates agreed on to take effect April lst.
The ostensible reason is owing 10 the
switchmen's strike following so close
upon that of the engineers and tiremen.
The company patrons have not had an
opportunity to enjoy the advantages the
cut rates have given other roads.

Chew Your Food More.

I am not much of an advocate of PIE
pared foods for dyspeptics. They may
spare the stomach some extra work, but II
is better TO do that by thorough mastica
ton of the food before swallowing it.
Let the teeth earn their board, and they
and you will be all tho better for it. The
fellows in the army who ate "hard tack -
had the strongest and best preserved
teerh. What if they did knock off piece
of enamel occasionally, they gave their
teeth pretty lively exercise and strength
ened the roots. In many cases Of dys-
pepsia there is nothing whatever the mat
ter with the stomach. Tie furnace is all
right, but it is not given q chance to draw
properly. Coal is piled on too fast and
the fire becomes chOked up. BE little
easy with il and it will work all right.

English Ignorance Of America.
The Epoch.

The ignorance concerning American
affairs that prevails in England, has been
commented ON 80 frequently that 1t has
grown to be an old story. Frank X.
Stocton. in st. Nicholas for March, cites
this case: AN English lady who had
Travelled ove- the greater part of Europe,
said she had great desire to come to
America, and her principal object in do
ing so was 10 shoot Niagara. l rather
opened my eyes at this, and said that
thought she must refer TO tho celebrated
trip down the rapids of the st. Lawrence,
but she was very positive on tho subject,
and said she meant Niagara, and nothing
else; she had understood That they did 1t
in q steamboat, and she knew she would
enjoy the situation" Perhaps one OF
these days our EngIish cousins will look
upon this country rs important enough
TO learn more about it-perhaps, let us
say, when our population reaches one
hundred millions.
