The "Bad Debt" Men Again.

The Chicago Globe has an in
~teresting account of a recent de-
cision of the United States Court
in the matter of the Sprague Col
lecting Agency. This is the con-
Germ through which, it will be re-
membered, A. G. Armstrong, of
Thu city, sent a dunning letter to
Mrs. Mary Vincil, St. Louis,
which resulted in a damage suit.
The Globe says, among other
things: The system used by the
Sprague Agency, having from its
iuc. ption proved itself an impor-
tant factor in the business of sue
cesstully collecting "had debts
for its thousands of members. COM
posed of the better class of busi-
ness and professional men through
out the United States and Canada,
it has, naturally enough, met with
all kinds of opposition, included
sharp criticism by the majority
of the public press. Thes
facts. coupled with a recent
decision of The United States
Courts given 20 squarely in favor
of this agency, caused IA representa-,
tive of the Globe to make a Wig
orous and careful investigation,
The post office department has
repeatedly tried to rule their en-
velopes as unavailable matter, but
this decision of the United States
judge forever settles this question
(as the government cannot take
an appeal and makes their bu~i.
ness strictly legitimate under the
law. Their books for 1887 show

las Heroic Matrons.
The characteristics Of American mothers
are their domestic economy, their unceas-
ing love and labor for the welfare Of their
children. and their faithful devotion, under
oil the viciSsitudcs of,life, to their husbands
and their interests. and their heroic forti-
tudc These, with their superior mental
culture, their sound judgment, strength
ened by their natural and acquired intel
iectual endOwTncnts, enable them to be, as
in fact, they generally are, the most eff
Gent, the wisest and best Of mothers.
Among the carly settlers of this country,
as well as among the pioneers of the West,
there are many instances OF the efficiency
and wisdom of those mothers who had tho
courage, while young, to leave comfortable
parental homes and go with the men of
their choice to commence life in the wilder
ness, or on the Western p~rairies, with but
little capital except that best of all cap
ital, sound heads and courageous hearts.
There IS not a more n0nio or herop; class
OF women than the American. n 'thers.
They excel III many respects those noble
Spartan mothers whose heroisl4 history
records, and whom the poets have ir.nor-
tailed in their honcyed lines of praise; even
that noble Roman Eatrou, who, in the ieep
heartfelt emotions Of motherly love, point
ed to her sons ane said: These are the
only jewels of which l can boast,'' has her
equals, if not supcriors, in many of the
American mothers
And when, after years of privation and
heroic struggle, wealth and competency
came to those early settlers and pioneers,
the nobleSt wreaths of honor aud the high.
est pasans Of praise we're due to those dis
Greet and noble mothers who were the stay,
anchor and comfort of their households,
and unfailipg sources Of energetic hope in
those days Of many prIvations, severe
trials and imminent dangers.
The mothers who thus toiled and com.
planned not, who, in straitened circun-
stances, saved aad mGrmured not, are tho
heroic noble ones to whom the country f
indebted for its real patriots, for its highes!
and noblest manhood, for its upright and
incorruptble citizens.-lothz IS Magazine.
