A Home OF Your Own.

Every man, whether he is a worl,ingman
in the common acceptat1on or not, feels q
deep interest in the management of the af-
fairs OF the city, county and state in which
he lives, wherever he owns homo He is
more patriotic, and in many ways is a better
citizen, than the man who simply rents, and
has but little, if any, assurance of how long
it will be before he be ordered to move; to
which may be added the saving of more
money.
Of course it requires some economy to lay
up sufficient amount of money to purchase
and pay for home, but this very fact, if
properly carried out after the home is &C
quired, may be the instrument of furnishing
means TO commence and prosecute a business
on your own responsibility. True, in some
cases it will require more economy, perhaps,
than we are now practicing. But the ques-
ton with every man, and especially il he is
the head of a family, is, can he afford It'll
That is, can he afford to live up to his wages
as fast as he makes them, without laying up
anything for the futurea
If he is the head Of a family, he Is obliged
TO pay rent, and it does not require many
years of rent paying to make up an amount
sufficient to purchase and pay for comfort
able home. You have to pay rent. This, you
say, you cannot avoid and be honest Well,
you cannot be honest with your family unless
you make a reasonable attempt to provide
them home of their own in case anything
should happen to you.
And the obligation to do this should be as
strong as the one TO pay rent or provide the
other necessaries for the comfort of your
family When you own home you will feel
direct interest in public affairs that other
wise you might consider of little interest,"

Over Development of the Muscles.

"There is a very general mistake made by
men who think that they need exercise, and
that is the over development OF the muscles.
That is just what you do not want to
achieve The developed muscle Is not so
good as the normal muscle. Let the muscles
remain soft Exercise not to abnormally in
crease the muscles, but merely to keep up the
health. When you have succeeded, through
training and handling weights, in making
the muscles hard, corded and kpotted you
have injured yourself. You have, in meas
ure, destroyed the elasticity of the muscles.
What man requires is symmetrical de-
velopment, and that may be secured, not
through gymnastic exercises, but through
diet, gentle exercises and developing the
chest
'"Tbe athlete Is not a symnetricaIly de-
veloped man; be is al example Of abnormal
development Look at the statue of Apollo
Beivedere. Do you see any corded muscles,
any stiffened, muscle-bound hmbsi No; you
see model Of human symmetry, with mus
cles only discernable through their rounded
contour. You do not see great cords in the
legs or over the shoulders The figure has
not the athletes stoop II you observe "a
ethlete, you will perceive that the layers Of

LOUISA M. ALcoTrs CHILDHOOD.
The Stsry Of Her Unfolding Into Char
scfnrfstic Woruanhood.

The Stsry Of Her Unfolding Into Char.
sctcristic Womanhood.
It would seem as If Miss Aicott might have
had silent monition that her work was al
most done from the number Of pieces Of her
recent writing, which show that she consid-
cred her work at so years OF age practically
accomplished. The most significant Of these
articles is the one ON her recollections Of
childhood, which appears m The Youths
Companion, to which she was favoxite
contributor. Here she opens her heart to her
readers and tells them what was the charac-
ter Of her early education
She was wild girl from her infancy, and
could tolerate no boy as her friend TIL she
had beaten him in running, and no girl Il
she refused to climb trees, leap fences and be
tonboy. She had the dramatic faculty as
an instinct She was always realizing her
information In her practical experience. She
had immense resources in her capacity for
acquiring the kind Of education which was
best fitted for her unfolding into a character
istic womanhood, and in this article one sees
at a glance that she was unco0sciously pur-
suing in her girlhood the course best fitted
for the literary career on which she entered,
partly by force of circumstances, and partly
by force of character. Her reflection on an
old cartwheel one frosty morning, when the
struggle within was keenest, is the keynote
of her entire Life With only crow for an
audience, she shook her fist at fate, and,
while shivering in the cold, the warm heart
of the girl of IS beat hopefully under her old
red shawl, as she said to herself: 81 will do
something by and by. Don't care what

family; and I'll be rich and famous and
happy before die, see if l won't" Here is
the nerve, the pith, the essence Of the life
which is now known and honored the world
over
Miss Alcott's career is SO true to the
promise Of her youth that the story Of it
should be read by all parents and by all
young persons. 1t has lessons for the
mother who has wild young girl to deal
with 1t shows how wise Mrs. Alcott was
in the management of her irrepressible and
brilliant daughters. Again it is full of hints
and points for girls themselves who have
limited opportunities and are full Of energy
and ambition Louise Alcott was SO full of
wit and strength that she chiefly educated
herself for all that was to be done in the real
work Of life. To be sure there was never
but one Alcott family TO be educated in, but
the strength Of Miss Alcott lay in her thor
ough knowledge of the life which she under
took to reproduce, and in her willingness to
make the effort required TO command sue
cess. Rarely has a writer and woman
lived more intensely and wisely than Miss
Alcott lived. and her recollections, If pos
sible, surpass in interest and meaning any
thing that she has ever written-Boston

CHICAGO.
Chicago, July 17.-There were several thing;
to make wheat weak to-day. Representatives OF
foreign houses who took literally yesterday were
not buyers this morning to any extent. The num-
Der of shorts was greatly diminished by taking OF
HutChinson's wheat for several days. Hutchinson
brokers still pretending to do business the
bear side. Receipts were considerably increased,
and receipts in the northwest were very large. EX-
port clearances were but few thousand bushels,
but this partly balanced by the amount of flour
moving away from the the seaboard. Early cables
were firm, but wheat was weak and lower at New
York. The 100000 bushels received at Minneapolis
yesterday and 00J additional to day gave rise to
he idea that the invisible supply in the northwest
may yet be considerable. Fifteen minutes before
the close futures were uniformly nc under the
close of last night, although the range for August
was close to l cent and the price was at one
time nearly &c under. August sold 1g9sc,
December, Sl50S3Ic. Before the close August
wheat rallied to 1914c and dropped b,ck to 1910
| 1850 to the close Other futures closed: July,
Sliac; September, iA56c; October, G05sc; Decem-
Der, sc.
Corn started this morning at &c under last
night because receipts of 3gS cars were so near
the estimate 10 addition to large receipts there
was pounding by several local houses and with no
outside support the market broke early about
Ceat. August sold at 4j8M4Gli, and closed at
1890 or &c under las night. September sold
down to ij4C, closing at 1850.
Business in proyi ions was light. Arrivals OF
hogs were disapl ointingly small and prices to
lOc higher. The market fOT canned products,
however, was weaker and a. the cUee decline
of l0c on pork, i1sC on lard and &c on short rib
sides was established. Outside hold rs havs b q.
come discouraged at the continued drag
eing tendency and decided to Close
cut, and number of the small
lOts were thrown overheard There was little
buying support, hence moderate Offerin-s caused
a weakness and decline in prices. August pOrk
