wnl 1888 be . Year of war9

The present year is the lfth year of modern times in which the aggregate of the figures is 25, and there will be but five more years in which such combina- tion is possible prior to the year 2599. Probably but few have ever heard of the old prophecy, which runs as follows:
 In every future year of our Lord,
 When the sum of the figures is twenty five,
 Some warlike kingdom will draw the sword,
 But peaceful nations in peace will thrive.
 Students of modern history will readily recall how faithfully this prophecy has been fulfilled in the four previous years to which it applied.
 In 1899 Russia, Denmark and Poland formed the coalition against Sweden, which inaugurated the great war that ended in the disastrous defeat of Charles XII at Pultowa.
 The year 17S9 will ever be memorable on account of the breaking out of the French revolution. ,-s
 Seventeen hundred and ninety-eight witnessed the campaign of Bonaparte in Egypt and the formation of the second European coalition against France.
 In 1879 war broke out between England and Afghanistan, follos.ed by the invasion of the latter country by British troops.
 In what manner the prediction is to be verified in 1888 remains yet to be seen, but the present condition of Europe seems to promise an abundant fullfillment of the prophecy. Philadelphia Inquirer.

"Codes of Health,"

In code of health. just published, is this rule: "Never begin a journey until the breakfast has been eaten" This is a suggestion to the suburban citizen to see that kindling for the cook stove has been prepared the night before, and that the alarm clock in the kitchen girls bedroom is in good order. Another rule is: ''Never take warm drinks and immediately go out into the cold" Therefore the coffee should be taken cold; otherwise, sit around the house after breakfast until after train time. Still another rule is: "After exercise of any kind, never sit near the window of car for 8 moment. '' There might be some difference whether the window is opened or closed, but the rule is imperative, and says violation is dangerous to health, or even life.'' Therefore, let your fat neighbor take the risks of the window seat, while you per. use fine print by the light sifted through him and his newspaper. Great things are these s'codes of healthp'-Cincinnati Com mercial Gazette.

Maryland.s ..smar,est Nicrer."

The following story is told by gentle man well acquainted with the partieA mentioned and who can vouch for it's authenticity. Each of two gentlemen, who owned adjoining farms in one of the counties, had n colored laborer working on his place. These men, who were named Tom and Bob respec sively,~, were very light fingered and had tho reputation of converting to their own special prop erty anything they could carry from their neighbors. One day the two farmers met, and, by chance, the conversation turned upon the stealing propensities of their respective men. After some discussion one said: ''I tell you Tom can steal more in a week than your Bob can in a month. He is the snartest nigger in the county"
 ''No, he can't" said the other gentle man, emptying his mouth of huge quan- tity of tobacco. 'sThere is no nigger in Maryland who can beat Bob stealing. He could take the buttons off city policeman's coat, and the policeman wouldn't know there was anybody within mile of him.'' 'Yes there is," ex- claimed Toms champion excitedly, ''Why, my Tom could steal stick of wood from under your Bob and leave him sitting on the bark.'' Bob's de- fender was vanquished and had to give it up and it was a week or more before he recovered sufficiently to proclaim again that he had ''the smartest nigger in Mary land. ."-13altimore News.

EVEN THIS WILL PASS AWAY. .

Of all the proverbs quaint and sweet. That burdened souls so often greet,
 AR some wise voice from ancient clay. There sure is none in whose belief The worn heart finds such sweet relief
 As "Eyen this will pass awayw When weary hands from early dawn Till lengthening eve must labor on,
 And know not surcease day by day: How gladly comes the sweet refrain, That echoes OCT and OCT again,
 ssThis, even this will pass away" When burdens that are hard to bear Would sink the soul heath black despair
 And whitening lips refuse to pray; Faiths lovely face e'en then will glow, And sweet her voice that whispers low,
 ssBut even this will pass away" When earth to earth and dust to dust Is read above our hearts best trust
 And we in anguish turn away; The bitter cup less bitter seems, When through it's dregs the bright truth gleams
 That even this will pass away. Yea, even thisl With hearts bowed down We stand beside the new made mound.
 And long to greet the coming day, When weary feet have found a rest; When hands are folded OCT the breast;
 And all lifes woes have passed away. Margaret McRae Lackey in New Orleans Pics

Americans in England,

Americans cannot understand that the habit, almost universal with our people, of wearing costly clothing, of calling for luxuries Unusual with Europeans except those of assured fortune), such as fires in bedrooms, unlimited gas and candles, great variety of food at every meal, the best seats at the theatres, constant cab. ping instead of walking, etc, causes them to be looked upon as rich aristocrats whose efforts to reduce expenses, aEt! yet retain all the comforts. must be sternly drowned down, as unworthy gentlemen or ladies. On the other hand, if our people pay on the guinea scale without mur- mur, they are treated with the veritable exaggerated deference which the low Eng. fish yield to their social superiors. Un- fortunately, that is the one luxury -so dear to the English "classes" themselves which our people las a rulel care nothing about. Sometimes this ser. vility is offensive to Americans.

IRENE.

Among tie purple mountain folds sought And sought ia vain for peace. l sought In vain In dreamy woods; along tn enchanted main; In kindly hamlets. Then with books wrought, Seeking for peace in tolls which only brought Dull discontent and weariness of brain. 'Where art thou, peace?" cried. "Oh, soothe
 this pain
 Of fearful longing and of throbbing thought" sweet voice answered Laughter glad and
 clear,
 Set the birds singing. Beautiful bright eyes Made 0 new dawn. sweet voice answered:
 "Cease
 From furtherfr1litless searching. I am here In flower of flesh and blood, of perfect size, Quite loving-your Irene. am peace" Peace. with her chatter and infectious glee; Peace, swinging madcap a springy bough, With bright hair blown and tumbled anyhow; Peace, padding in Q Shoal of summer sea; Peace, at high revel up an apple tree;
 Peace, reading with bent and dreamy brow; Peace, on a footstool-very peaceful now Listening with hands clasped fondly on my knee No abstract noun, no mythic shape divine, No sweet elusive dream of who knows what, But just a child, she brings my heart surcease Of care; and when she puts her cheek to mine, Bliss and complete contentlnent with my lot. Yes this is my Irene-this is Peace. The Academy.

Take Time at tho Table,

Americans live at too high a pressure. No man has any business having fupc- tional dyspepsia. Organic dyspepsia Is different. That is due to cancer or some other specific disease of the stomach or other internal organs. Rapid eating nften grows out of the habit of eating alone. Pleasant company at table and good food are excellent preventives oi rapid eating. Eat slowly, enjoy your food, take plenty of time between courses and let your teeth do their share of the work instead of putting the whole job on the stomach. If you don't enjoy your meals take vigorous enough exercise to make you hungry. Hunger is the best sauce. That is the way to prevent dys pepsia if you haven't it, and the way tc cure it if you have.-New York World Interview.

HE WANTS THE KNIGHTS TO SPEND THE MONEY
WASTED ON THEN FOR EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES.
General Master Workman POwderly has issued
another circular to the rank and file OF the Knights
of Labor, denouncng strikes and trusts, and again
informing the order that II they are tired of him
they have only to vote him out Of ONCE. Mr.. Pow
DERBY submits the questions to be voted on by
local assemblies, as follows: First. Does your as
educational campaign? Second. Do you believe
we should send out good, competent brothers to
teach the principles OF the order? Third, Shall
the general master workman be sustained in en-
Forcing discipline In all departments the order?
As ~ strikes Mr. POwderley says Years ago a
strike on railway or in a mandatory was car
ried on between the men and the mpioyer To-
day, when strike takes place. the railway COM
pa1y or the manufacturer may belong TO trust
ana may actually realize profit, While those en-
gagged In the strike are starving. Pools, cOmbina-
TONS and trusts are the unions VI capital against
which unions of labOrers are ptted. we
must have legislation which will compel indiyid-
ual and corporation TO transact business on basis
OF real property-doars and cents, instead OF what
the World calls paper credit or fictitious values.
How can this be done? BY whom will it be done?
Not by strikes; not by wasting our energies on
the line OF abuse Of each other 1t cannot be done
by men who have no higher conception of Knight
hood and citizenship than to expose themselves
and families TO the pangs OF hunger in suicidal
a fire. Strikes do good! Go to the cOal-fields OF
Pennsylvania and count the victims GO through
into the homes OF the brave heroic pnen who waged
the unequal battle, and ask OF the wives and chill
dren you VIII md there II strikes do good, and
note the answer"
Mr.. Powderiy asserts that he believes strikes are
weakening his labor movement In America, and
this Is the reason for calling a halt them. He
continues: III our membership OF 100000 Is In
struced In the full meaning OF the preamble OF the
Knights OF Labor we will do a work which all the
strikes Of ages, had they all proved successful.
could not do. We heard great cry go up because
$4,000 went to pay lecturers last year, but not
word against the $}0O,O0O that went into the
maelstrom OF strikes. IL would be better to re-
verse the order or things and spend $500 600 as
many millions II ootainable, TO put lecturers and
teachers In the held. We have none now, VIII a
vigorous policy OF educational work be sustained?
VIII our members consent TO an educational fund
