game, with the social decorum left
out.
Do you claim there is no connection
between these two scenesp Then We
are ready to assume that you are
ignorant of the facts connected with
such matters. We do not go so far
as to assume that the doggery-gamb-
ler is trained in card-playing thet
parlor table. Leave that for those
who would draw the lines more closely.
Yet, the fact thatsa species of genteel
gambling is carried on in the parlor,
furnishes an excuse for the less
pretensions gambling in the doggery.
Says the young lady:
"Oh, we had such jolly euchre-
party; l won the first prize"
Says the poor, miserable, dilapidated
red-nosed hummer:
"Shay, had'er good (hic) game,
lash night, up to (hic) Bugleshnorter's
l won (hic) ten shtraight (hic) beers,
right along"
Without taking sides relative to
the situation, there are the two
pictures; there's no denying them;
there is nothing to be said in recon-
mendation Of either. When the young
lady, at the parlor table, has mastered
the science of card-playing, she has
aecomplished-what? She has simply
caught up with the ''dead-beat" who
hangs about the doggery and CANDLES
forEintoxicants. You may say to the
parlor-player, this is wrong in its
tendency and influence" and the
answer will be, ''there's no harm il
itr' You may say to the crowd Of
drinking, swearing loafers in th'
doggery,' 'forbear this awful practice,
and the stunning reply is. Your would
be tony people have proclaimed thai
it is harmless and altogether innocent
go to them with you remonstrance!
The least that can be said of such E
pastime is that it is useless ant
dangerous.

Cards as an Educator.

Quite a spirited discussion has been
going on for some time in the Meigs
County papers over the subject of
card-playing. A writer started the
discussion by taking the stand that
card-playing and similar amusements
should be more extensively tolerated
and engaged in by Church people.
The writer perhaps speaks from the
standpoint of one whose observations
of eard-playing have taken in only
one side Of the amusement. We
believe this is the first time we ever
saw card playing held up as refining
influence, and we trust that it will be
the last time.
There is little doubt that a great
many very good people occasionally
play cards, and when a party of ladies
and gentlemen occasionally engage in
a popular game of cards, mere
contemplation of that picture reveals
nothing absolutely sinful, perhaps.
But the picture is not isolated in its
refining influences. In fact, during
the progress of the parlor game there
is little of the influence Of the treach-
erous pack seen. If you desire to see
the active influence of card-playing,
leave the harmless parlor-game, and
go at the same hour, to the nearest
doggery. You will find men seated
about tables there. just as they are in
the parlor, yet this crowd reeks with
the fumes of liquors and tobacco. and
is loud with profanity. The simplest
play-the mere throwing down of a,
card, is the signal for the most fright
full and disgusting oaths, and the in
fuence of the games seems to tend
toward bringing out all there is brutal
and disgusting in mankind. The
game in the parlor, is the same game
with the profanity generally left out
The game in the doggery is the same

STARVING A COLD.

How 1t Can BE Done Without Inconven.
- fence to the Sufferers.
The man who originated the Oft
quoted and unscientific maxim, Feed
a cold and starve fever" either did
not understand what he was writing
about, or he has been widely misun-
derstood, to the great injury of multi
tudes who have acted on tue absurd
maxim. Presuming that the author OF
it was a physician who knew some.
thing of the nature of cold and the
action of remedies, he must have
spoken subjunctively, and not imperar
lively. And then it would read thus:
If you stuff a cold, the consequence
will be that you will be thrown into 8
fever, as result of the stufhng treat
ment of the cold; and then you will
have to starve the fever. This is a true
and sensible Interpretation of this
commonly-receivedm maxim, which has
done as much harm as any of the thou
sand and one of the popular errors
which prevail on medical subjects.
If it can not be explained in the man
ner mentioned, it must be remanded tt

stition, and classed with lunar anj
stellar influences over the human body
witchcraft and other absurdities Ions
since exploded in the progress of true
science. Without dwelling on the nat

JUMPING SPIDERS.

Lively Animals That Are Supplied with
Eyes All Over the Cephalic Region.
These spiders, jumpers, belong to
the group which naturalists call the
saltatory spiders. Some of them are
disguised, as if for protective resem-
blance, with the costume of hymenop-
ferrous insect, or under an aspect re-
sembling that of ants. Producing only
a small quantity of silk, they hide
themselves in cracks in the walls or in
assures of bark in the shadow of the
foliage, and make themselves lodge
of smooth or hossy tissue. At the
laying of it's eggs the jumper shuts
itself up in it's shell. One species de-
posts its eggs without any covering;
a more fortunate species incloses them
in sack with thin and almost diapha-
nous wd1ls. Not having the faculty
of spinning webs, the saltatory spiders
are hunters, and have to fast if the
weather is bad. On pleasant days they
are to be found all around, and, hav-
ing eyes all over the cephalic region,
some of them quite small and others OF
enormous size, they can look accurate
ly through all the surrounding space,
which they explore slowly and with
care. If a fly is in sight, the spider
launches itself upon it with dizzy ra-
pidity. 1t measures it's distance so
well that it rarely misses; but, if this
should happen, no harm comes to it,
for it has fixed thread to it's starting
point, which, unrolling as it leaps, pre-.
vents it's striking upon the ground.
and affords an easy road back to it's
position.-M Emile Blanchard. IN

COMMERCE AND INDUSTRY.

AT the present time Austria sends to che
United Kingdom considerable quantity of
Indian corn, but little or no barley or oats.
READING, Pa, is the sauer kraut center
OF the country. Six thousand barrels Of
this 'edible" are put up there annually.
The cotton crop of 1883 is the largest ever
grown in America, exceeding that of 1892 8,
hitherto the largest on record, by 5000
bales. The total crop this season is 7,O46,-
1913 bales. 4: 49,. .
The Bank Of America is the largest sim
gle shipper of gold abroad. Shipments are
made in stout kegs, very like the ordinary
beer key. Every one contains $4,000 in
coin or in bar gold. .
IT is computed that this year 8 corn crop,
if loaded for railroad shipment, would fill
2,S7S. 81 cars and make a train that would
reach IL, 40 miles, or two-thirds of the way
around the world.
Our trade with Mexico is steadily lncreas-
ing. The people of our sister Republic are
learning the value of the products of the
United States, especially articles for house.
hold use and machinery, the totals of
which, sent over the Rio Grande, are yearly
rising.
THE raisin crop of California promises to
become great and profitable one Three
years ago the State produced 100000 boxes,
last year the product was 500, 900 boxes, and
this year it will probably be 1,500, 600 boxes.
This is equivalent to l05O00,000 pounds OF
fresh grapes.
IT has been discovered that whereas six
years ago all the carbons burned in the
electric lights of the country were made in
one room in Boston by ten men, there are
now $50 tons consumed daily and of this
number 100 tons are turned out in the
twenty carbon furnaces of Cleveland. ''> ~
The cultivating and milling Of rice in
Louisiana give employment to large per-
centage of her population. There are about
$40 rice plantations in the State. New
Orleans has twelve rice mills, with capac-
ity Of cleaning 81, 900 barrels per annum.
The amount invested in all industries con-
nected with the rice trade is estimated at
about s., 100000.
A DIAMOND merchant of New York is re-
ported as saying that when the African
mines were discovered there was very
nearly panic, which was averted by q
combination of large dealers who banded
together and bought control of all the
diamond mines. Two great companies, the
Central Mining Company and the Kimberly
Company, practically control the diamond
market of the world, and no new diamonds
ore put on the market except as they per-
NIT, and the price is kept where it is by a
combination, and is not influenced by sup
ply or demand .
