Invention and Wages.

Some paper has started the silly
question, "Do Inventions decrease
Wages" Certainly they do not. On
the contrary, inventions increase
wages, shorten the work day and de-
crease prices. In fact inventions con-
stitute the only possible way by
which labor can he emancipated
from drudgery, long hours, and poor
pay. Inventions are increasing
and wages are constantly advancing
in all countries where they are utiliz-
ed. Take calico as an example. There
are persons now living who can re-
member when calico sold at % cents
yard. 1t now sells at s cents. This
great reduction in price was effected
by inventions. In the meantime
wages havein no case fallen, but have
advanced very greatly. A days
wages will now buy as much calico as
a weeks wages would fifty years
ago. Calico is selected as an exam
pie, but the same facts are true as
regards other manufactures. Any one
no matter whether laborer, Il loafer
or capitalist, who talks against in
ventions, talks against one o the very
greatest material blessings that has
been vOuchsafed to the world; it is
astounding that any person can be
found who is so ignorant or 50 rash as
to condemn them.

The Celebrated White TrOttins Stallion

VIM. G.. Cody has purchased this
celebrated trotting stallion. This
horse trotted and won the double
team race at Minneapolis in 2:26
and got a record of the same. The
next day he won the stallion race
at Minneapolis in 2:35. The horse
will serve to only limited number
of mares, and parties desiring his
service would do we'll to make ar
rangements Immediately. La Glare
will stand at my stables la Water
town, Oeonomowoc and Waukesha.
Mr.. Cody has several affidavits as to
the breeding Of this horse and the
records where he won every race in
the circuit when entered. Dr.Smith,
secretary Of the State Veterinary
society, has certified to some of
these affidavits. This horse is to
trot in the circuit Of 1889, and will
be driven by Edward Lull, Of Lake
Mills, the well-known driver. Par
ties who admire fast colts will do
we'll to make arrangements with
the owner, as % mares will be the
number of his service.

Family Prayers at the White House.

Family Prayers Mt the White House.
There ia one custom which will probab-
ly be observed in the White house for
perhaps the first and only time, and that
is family prayers in the morning. Mr.
Harrison ever since his marriage has
never failed, except when confined to his
bed, to hold family worship just before
breakfast. The hour for the matutinal
meal has usually been O'Clock, and at
1880 the family has always collected in
the library, where the general read aloud
a chapter in the Bible, and after few
words in comment or explanation he and
the whole family have khelt and joined
ia saying the Lords Prayer. after which
he made special petition, either inl-
promplu or from book OF prayers. And
it is said that neither the president nor
his wife have any intention of prefer
hitting this observance In the executive
mansion. --New York Sun.
