Protecting Our Ruins.

An effort is being made to have
congress interfere to protect the pre-.
historic temple of Casa Grande, near
Florence, A. IT,, from the depreda-
ions of relic hunters. The most pro-
nounced free trader must acknowl.
edge that if there is anything in this
country which deserves protection il
is a well-authenticated ruin. AS a
country ambitious in all directions,
the United States must blush when
the ruins of the old world are COM
pared with ours. Even our navy is
not the picturesque ruin it was some
years ago, and the capitol at Albany
is being patched up with papier.

Observations on the Mule.

NhE
Milwaukee Sentinel.
The mule is neither a fool nor lazy,
but simply devilish. 1t has the
brilliant qualities and moral perver-
sity of Mephisto. 1t is the most in
telligent Of quadrupeds, it is the
intellectual superior of the majority
Of men. 1t does not act from intui-
ton, but from reason. Marshal
Wilder's story indicates its calculat-
ing malice. He tells of negro
whose mule was sick and who was
urged to give it a maximum dose of
rheubarb and jallap. For three days
the negro did not appear on the
streets, and when he did he was a
wreck. He explained that he placed
the medicine in tin tube, put one
end of the tube in the mules mouth
and the other end in his own,
intending to blow the medicine down
the mules throat, "But de mule he
blOwed fust ?"
That's the mule all over. The
mule can count. disappointment
of a New Orleans street railway says
the mules will make five trips day
without trouble, but beatings, coax
ings and all other persuasions cannot
induce him to make the sixth. The
mule knows when it is Sunday. A
writer in the Scientific American
owns number of mules which sub
NIT to the bride weekdays but if hi
undertakes to bride one on Sunday
the whole gang kicks. The Unior
army mule was in sympathy will
the rebellion, and did more mischie
to the Union cause than the Knights
Of the Golden Circle. 1t crippled
more men, knocked down more tent
and kept more men awake than rebe
shells ever did.

Golden Opportunities for Kindness.

How lamentable that we should go
through the world so misunderstand-
ing one another, letting slip golden
opportunities for glimpses into Others
better natures, which might have
knit our hearts to theirs forever in a
brotherhood of love, aud drawn the
veil of charity over faults, which, in
our blindness, seemed to us without
a virtue to balance them.
1t has been said that angels turn
sorrowingly away from this soul
blindness of ours, and that friends
laugh over the final fall of dispair
which our helping hand might at
such moments have averted.
Well for us all it is that He who is
Himself without sin, more merciful
than man, sees gathering tears in
eyes that we deem hard and dry.
Half the blessing of existence lies
in having friends whom we can
know and understand; who will re
ciprocate our friendships, and SYM
pathize with us in success and in
trouble.

Sunday.

What a blessed day is Sunday to
the weary man who necessarily
catches but brief glimpses of home
during the toiling week; who is off
in the morning while little eyes are
still closed in slumber, and does not
get back at night till they are again
sealed by sleep. What would he
know of the very children for whom
he tolls, were it not for the blessed
breathing respite Of Sunday?
What honest working mans child
will ever forget the blessed Sabbath.
day, when, clean and neat, it is his
privilege to climb papa's knee, and
hang about his neck, and tell him all
the news which goes to make up his
narrow little world
Marrow" did we say? We re-
call the word, for 1t widens out into
the boundless ocean Of eternity. Sun
day for the working mans children!
So would we have it a day hallowed
by sweet, pure home influences;
when the little band quite complete
shall rest from labor, and love shall
write it down the most blessed day
of all the seven.

An Extra Session,

n. Y. World.
The Republican leaders appear TO
be settling down into the conviction
thatan extra session of Congress is
Inevitable.
Z All hopes of revenue legislation at
this session are practically abandoned,
and a surplus the existence of which
was denied during the canvass looms
up menacingly before them. A
Democratic House and a Democratic
President stand in the way ofspend-
ing this surplus now. The buying OF
bonds progresses but slowly. a COM
bination to put up the price of these
securities, in case the Government
must have them as the only alterna-
tive against an accumulation Of idle
money that would cause financial
distress is already limited at and could
be easily formed.
Confronted thus at the outset both
with a serious condition" created by
a surplus and "theory" of taxation
that creates the condition, what could
the new President do except to sum-
mon Congress together? Let us see
if Republican House, fresh from
the people, will dare to pass the Sem
ate bill increasing the taxes as
means of reducing revenue. II 1t
should do so there would be a reck-
oning day for the monopolists and
their legislative agents in the Con-
gressional elections of the next year.

Ringing Noises.

In the ears, sometimes a roaring,
buzzing sound, are caused by catarrh,
that exceedingly disagreeable and
very common disease. Loss of smell
or hearing also result from catarrh.
Hoods Sarsaparilla, the great blood
purifier, is a peculiarly successful
remedy for this disease, which il
cures by purifying the blood. Ifyou

That have been hurled from lofty pedestals

And in a shapeless, huddled mass they lie
But yet have room-I could not cast them

From which no hand may draw aside the

A Word to Little Girls.

Who is lovely? 1t is the little
girl who drops sweet words, kind re-
marks, and pleasant smiles, as she
passes along; who has a kind word
Of sympathy for every girl or boy she
meets in trouble, and Il kind hand to
help her companions out of difficulty;
who never scOlds, never contends,
never leases her mother, nor seeks
in any way to diminish, but always
to increase her happiness. Would
it not please you to pick mp string
of pearls, drops of gold, diamonds, or
precious stones, as you pass along the
street ? But these are the precious
stones that can never be lost. Take
the hand of the friendless. Smile on
the sad and detected. Sympathize
with those in trouble. Strive every
where to diffuse around you sunshine
and joy. If you do this you will be
sure to be loved.
Redly the freight shines through the
room,
Chasing away all the shadow and gloom;
Lighthearted children are prattling in
glee,
Father is as happy as can be,
For the wife and mother who suffered so
long,
Is getting her health back and soon will
be strong,
And who is SO happy rs she is tonight,
As she thinks of the shadow that's taken
its flight
the shadow of disease that darkens so many
homes and makes the life of wife and moth
err one of terrible suffering. How pleased
we are to know that at last a remedy has
been found for all those delicate derange
ments and weaknesses peculiar to women
1t comes TO cherries homes with glad It'd
ings of great JOY" DR.. Pierce's Faveritt
Prescription has done for women what ne
other remedy has done, or can do, and it il
not to be wondered at that women who have
been cured by it are so enthusiastic in it
