Farming as a Business.

There are some among our readers
who, we fear, think farming an ex-
ceedingiy profitable business, and that
any one can make money at it. This is
great mistake, as many have found to
their SORROW. We do not wish to mis-
lead any one ny giving results of crops
obtained under peculiarly favorable cir
cumstances. Farming, like every other
calling. has its advantages and its dis
advantages. When properly conducted.
it will yield u good living, and possibly
something more. No one should ex-
pect to get rich suddenly in this bust
ness. 1t is healthful, and in many
respects independent and pleasant en-
ployment. and one worthy the atten-
ton of men of brains. 1t is not now
true, if it ever was, that every Ounce
can get "a better living by farming than
by any other occupation. We do not
wish to discourage those who are think
ing of farming for a life-work, nor, on
the other hand, are we willing to
glorify it so rs to mislead. 1t is our
desire to impress upon all our farmer
friends the Importance of SO conducting
their business rs to secure the very best
results. - Cossqregdtt0naIiSt.

Shall Women Be Allowed to Vote?

The question of female suffrage has agi-
many years, and good arguments have been
adduced for and against it. Many of the
softer sex could vote intelligently, and many
would vote as their husbands did, and give
no thought TO the merits of political issue.
They would all vote for DR.. Pierce's Favor
tie Prescription, for they know it is boon
to their sex. 1t is unequaled for the cure
of leucorrhea, abnormal discharges, morn
ing sickness, and the countless ills to which
women are subject. 1t is the only remedy
for woman's peculiar weaknesses and all
ments, sold by druggists under positive
guarantee from the manufacturers, that it
will give satisfaction in every case, or mon
ey will be refunded. See guarantee Oh

A NEGLECTED GRAVE.

Neglected grave; how soon forgot!
A blackened stone, rank grass, dead leaves,
A narrow mound that ne'e receives
A fond attention, mark the spot
Where one whose name no carving shows,
!, Lies wrapped in mortal last repose.
Up yonder hill, years gone apace,
b A funeral c0rtege crept-tears fell
From kindred eyes; mournful knell
Announced an end to life's swift race.
And now, all those who sorrowed then
In endless peace are here again.
What core the dead II selfish aims
Afford no time for long respect!
IL stately shaft or cold neglect rs
Exsoi or slight their empty namest
Alas their usefulness is DER,
The busy world needs them no more.
But do not we, whose beings thrill
With buoyant life and sturdy powers,
Keep bright the hope in solemn hours
That, when our throbblng hearts are still,
Some faithful friend shall ever keep
A loving vigil DER our sleep!

Does tho Earth Really Move?

some mistake about it, when we see how
stubbornly certain old fogies cling to theiI

REPUBLICAN OPINIONS.

THE free list might be enlarged without az
fecting injuriously single American interest !"
-McRinLey (Rep., Of Ono. author Of free Whtsky
platform Of 49,
"Iwould mention some articles which enter
into manufacture OF all sorts. All duty paid on
such articles go direct to the cost Of the article
when manufactured here, and must be paid for
by the consumer. These duties not only come
from the consumers at home. but act as pro-
lection to foreign manufacturers in our own and
distant markets. "-Prtsidern Gram.
81 hold that properly adjusted competition
between home and foreign products is the best
gauge by which to regulate international trade.
Duties should be so high that our manufacturers
can fairly compete with the foreign product, but
not so high as to enable them to drive out the
foreign article, enjoy monopoly Of the trade
and regulate the price as they please. This is
my doctrine Of protection. "-JGnes A. Garfield.
81 recommend an enlargement Of the free list
so as 10 include within it the numerous articles
which yield inconsiderable revenue; simplif.
cation of the complex and inconsistent schedule
Of duties upon certain manufactures, cotton,
iron and STEEL and q substantial reduction ofthe
duties upon those articles, and upon sugar, mo-
lasses silk, wool and wooden goods. "-PrtsideRt
Artstr's Message Of 1882.
"By this law THE tariff of 1851 the duties were
placed lower than they had been at any time
since the war Of 1912. The act was well received
by the people, and was indeed concurred in by q
considerable portion of the Republican party"
james G. Blaine.
"Fyery advance toward a free exchange OF
commodities is an advance in civilization; every
obstruction to a free exchange is born Of the
same narrow, despotic spirit which planted cas-
ties upon the Rhine to plumber peaceful com.
merce; every obstruction to commerce is tax
upon consumption; every facility to free ex-
change cheapens commodities, increases trade
and production, and promotes civilization.
Nothing is worse than sectionalism within a ma
ton, aud nothing is better for the peace of ma
tons than unrestricted freedom of commerce
and intercourse with each other."-JohH Sher-
man.
"a substantial reduction Of tariff duties is de-
manded, not by mere indiscriminate popular
lamor, but By the best conservative opinion Of
the country, including that which has in former
times been most strenuous for the preservation Of
our national industrial defense. Such reduc-
ton Of the existing tariff the Commission r. CARDS
not only as due recognition of public senti-
ment and measure ofjustice to consumers, but
ne conducive to the general industrial prospe
ity. and which, though 1t may be temporarily
inconvenient, will be ultimately beneficial TO
the special interests affected by such reduction"

workman, and he declared if the tariff
were reduced the country would 20 to the
demnitiou bow-wows.
Jim listened attea,iVely. aud then said
to the merchant:

day to buy a pair Of pants, didn't he?''
Yes" replied the merchant.
"And yoa asked 81. so for them9' said
Jim.
Yes" s,id the merchant, "but they
were a wool and fine pair"
Il know that" said Davana, "but my
wife made that same pair of pants for you
for 81 cents. Now / would like TO know
where tie other ST. 10 goes to-"
