already proceeded the mother across the river and
are already safely housed in the land of rest, while

"a Mr.. Bookwalter's favorite topic is
about the rapid increase in wheat raising in
India, which he thinks is menace to the
future prosperity of our American wheat
growers. Directly after his return from In
dia he poured out food of statistics in the
course of several newspaper interviews, show
ing the rapid progress of India as a wheat.
growing country, which caught the ear of the
country and was copied by the press every
where, creating good deal of alarm among
our wheat-growers. Statistics since that
time have confirmed Mr.. Bookwalter's pre-
dictions, and India has advanced and is ad-
vancing as a wheat-growingc country with ex-
tremely rapid strides. On this ssnbject Mr..
Bookwalker said, in 1884,: India already
has 25,OO0,0OO acres in wheat; 100000 ad-
ditional acres are available for wheat, and
two thirds of the land now in cultivation
with other crops could be used for wheat rais-
ing. This, coupled with the fact that labor
is only $1.20 per month, and the expense of
shipping wheat from India to Liverpool is
not much greater than from America, makes
India dangerous rival to our wheat growers.
The English understand this, and they are
rapidly developing its resources by building
railroads, canals, etc. The amount of India
wheat will soon be sufficient to break the
English market and lessen the price of Ameri-
can wheat. Besides wheat India produced
last year over half million bushels of In
dian corn and 100000 tons of rice, princi-
pally for home consumption. The labor is
all done by. hand, and dyery little machinery
used" The, last five, years have borne out
these predictions in striking manner. The
acreage of wheat has increased steadilyiuIn

wheat. ,.--

Dear Harvie, we bid You adieu,
Through sorrow our hearts do swell,
And life is lonely without you,
Dear Harvie, now farewell.
Papa and mamma now will miss thee,
There will be one vacant chair;
Brothers and sisters toO will miss thee,
We miss the, Harvie, everywhere.
Dearest Harvie, we will miss thee,
Miss thee through the summer hours,
Now we never more shall see thee,
Roaming mid the brightest flowers.
But we have the sweet assurance,
That thou art among the blest,
Where We all shall cease our troubling,
And with thee will safely rest.
Now we part, but not forever,
There will be a glorious dawn,
We will meet to part, no never,
On the resurrection morn.

nearly $1,000, 600 worth of her teas The
fair cheeks of our ladies were cooled last
year with $97, 900 worth of Japanese
fans, and our noses were wiped with
$Sl6, 900 worth of japanese silk handker-
chiefs. We buy nearly $500, 900 worth
of porcelain every year, and our imports
of bamboo ware amount to $l02, 900 of
japanese money. We buy more than
twice as much of Japan as any other
country, and our imports are increasing
every year. In 1887 we bought million
and half more goods than in 1886, aud
the United States will probably continue

Pneumonia's Fatal Progress.

According to a medical contemporary,
DIR. Gouverneur L. Smith, of New York,
has just given some interesting and
startling facts in regard to pneumonia.
DR. Smith points out that the d sease is
becoming worse every year, increasing
rathing than decreasing, both in the
number of cases and the percentage of
mortality. The statistics of the Penn
sylvania Hospital shows that the NOR.
tality from pneumonia there advanced
from Ct per cent. in 1S41 to 49, per cent.
in 1867, and 81 per cent. in 1886. SINH
larly, in the New York Hospital the
ratio of mortality from this disease is
more than double what it was in 1878.
Thirty or forty years ago it was regarded
as serious, but it did not excite anything
like the alarm it does to-day. DIR.
Smith is rather inclined to believe that
the medical art, instead of progressing
in its treatment of pneumonia, has actu-
ally gone back; and holds that the old
methods of treating the disease at the
time it was less deadly to have been
abandoned for methods more finical but
less etficacious. The first requisite, he
insists, is ''superabundance of pure air
about the patient. In pneumonia the
breathing apparatus only partially per
forms its functions, for the diseased
parts of the lungs are substantially use
less. THE working portion must per-
form the work of two lungs for a week
or ten days in order to maintain the
blood in a proper condition to sustain
life;' and, therefore, the patient Ie-
quires purer air and vastly more than one
in sound health. 'Pure air as a remedial
agent in the management of pneumonia
and other disorders, both acute and
chronic, has ever been a more potent
ally of therapeutics than any panacea
offered by alchemy or any hobbledehoy
presented by modern chemistry. -
