Chinese tea merch

one day with his new wife. for whom, ecccse&
ing to custom, he had paid q great amount.
1t soon appeared that she was as proud OF tho
trade as he was.
All Lee permitted the wife and daughter
OF his chief customer, Squire Hadley, to pay
his young wife visit ofcourtesy-an unusual
privilege
Glow do you like our little city, Mrs. All
Lee ?" asked Mrs. Hadley; s'it must aeon
very quiet here after noisy San Francisco"
"Me no hear heap noise down in San
Francisco, replied Mrs. All Lee with dignity.
81 suppose not" said Dora Hadley. "Your
women and girls are not allowed to go about
in the way we do. should think you'd just
hunger and thirst TO go shopping and bay
things don't you ever? You no bu. &C, no
shopper"
There was light of pride in the dark IL
mond eyes, naughty turn to the queer shap-
ed head, aud Mrs. All Lee replied with femi-
nine emphasis.
"Melican lady walk, walk, walk buy heap
dresses spend heap dollars. Chinaman lady
cost heap dollars, for why Chnaman lady

Well Earned.

Inc nrSt money one really earns has q
value and an Importance peculiarly its own
value which is increased if the money is
earued by hard and faithful labor. One man
at least will never forget how he felt on re-
ceiving his first wages. He was boy of 10
at the time, western farmers son. Early
one morning neighbor appeared unexpect-
eddy at the door.
"My boys down sick, to-day" he said, 'an'
l wondered if l couldn't git your Jimmy to
drap corn for me in q piece I'm just finishing
up. Ofcourse I'd expect to pay him for it. )"
AS our corn was all in, says the gentleman,
and my father was always glad TO oblige a
neighbor, he said at once that might GO.
l was greatly pleased with the idea of be-
ing paid cash for my services, as had never
worked away from home, and the spending
money" that father occasionally gave me did
not seem like money had earned.
Up and down, down and up the long fur
rows l tramped before Farmer Gray's hoe.
1t wasan exceedingly warm day, and Farmer
Gray was "smart worker" and evidently
intended that l should earn my money.
had fairly to trot before him, while he fire.
quently encouraged me to renewed speed by
saying:
Hurry along, my son! Git along as fast
as you kin. It's the only way to make a
livin' in this world"
We stopped just long enough to eat our
dinner, and finished planting the corn about
4 in the afternoon. Then Mr.. Gray ssid
"Now, sonny, you can make up the balance
O. the day wedding my onion bed"
So I pulled weeds till nearly z O'Clock,
when was called in to supper, after which
Mr.. Gray said, cheerfully:
"S'posin' you jst split up wood enough
to last Mis- Gray to-morrer, an then help me
do my teedin'-for good measure, you know"
1t was quite dark when Mr.. Gray pulled
out his pocket book.
"Well, sonny" said he, you've done right
well, an I don't mind payin' a man his mon
ey when he's ARMED it. About how much,
now, ought to pay you, eh?'
l was modest and bashful, and told him to
pay me what he thought had earned.
well, then" he replied, "s'posin' we call it
fifteen cents. Folks workin' by the day don't
gin'rally stay TO supper, an as you did reck-
on fifteen cents'll be bout right. Here's your
money, an next time want boy I'll give
you chance"
I took the money with good conscience.
/ had certainly earned it.

Competition Among Plants.

The principle of competition Is so active
and so vigorous in the vegetable world that
1t keeps up sort of domestic warfare among
plants. The struggle to get on in the world
is less noticeable in our latitude than it is in
tropics. Where the possibilities of reaching
the most gigantic size are the greatest, there
the individual plant struggles most eagerly
to get into the foremost place. Plants are
much like ourselves.
As an instance of how one tree will take
advantage of another tree, may be mentioned
the conduct of what is called the parasitic
fig. The seed of this plant is distributed by
birds. Suppose one of these seeds happens
to lodge in the fork of a jack fruit tree. 1t
terminates as we'll there as it would on the
ground.
The young plant sends long root down
until it reaches the soil. Then it grows
and its first development is to-
ward spreading itself all over the jack fruit
tree until it has smothered and killed it. The
foster child steps into the shoes of its foster
pareut.
Quite as fierce a struggle, though more
open one, is maintained among members of
the same family. The case is reported in
Nature of species of heraculeum which was
allowed to seed freely. On the first of June,
1880, there were five hundred and seventy
three seedlings. On the nineteenth of August
following, only one hundred and five of them
remained. The missing ones had been push
ed to the wall ny the more vigorous 0urvi-
vors.
A more striking instance still, of fierce and
fatal competition, is found in the case of the
Brazil nut, inasmuch as here the conflict goes
on among those that are of the same age
This fruit contains from Is to twenty -four
seeds, which all terminate at one time. The
most vigorous one gets first through small
hole at the top to the open air, and thereupon
it strangles and feeds upon all the rest.
All the reflections of modern scientific
teaching, whenever these examples are
touched upon, are made with regard to the
of Nature; to the care for
self, and the absolute disregard for others
The one observation is that "in all cases the
weakest goes to the wall" This is looking
upon plant life as we too often look upon our
own lives. May it not be that plants are
even more like ourselves than the common
view of their history admits, and that we may
look upon their fate with the more humaniz-
ing sentiment, "Whom the gods love, die

inally, to serfage? The reason is given

finally, to serfage? The reason is given
by the Country Gentleman, quoted by
the Bedford Magazinist; the capital
which is good for the consumer and
which makes its crops by the Uhole-
sale use of land, machinery and labor,
retires all homestead and family farm
ers from further service of humanity,
and compels them to shift to other en-
ployments, or die. Their attempt to
save themselves by trucking, ETC., near
cities and towns, is often heroic, but
capital soon hunts them out of that, too.
The tragedy of their EVICTION is often
too deep for anything but tears, but
capital only counts dollars, not tears
AS the Assessors above quoted say,
their fall is inevitable. Can any patriot
contemplate this result without seeing
and feeling that the Republic, except
in name. goes with its farmers?
1.-The idea that they can be supplied
by little more free trade or that
capital will not capture that sort of trade
as easily as any other, is TOO absurd to
consider further. Nor is it probable
that disqualification can be enforce by
either sentiment or patriotism. What,
then, can be done? WHAT will retain
for civilization the benefits of capital in
the highest degree without its dangers,
and thus Salty sentiment, prosperity,
and patriotism? Is it not clearly the
public administration Of transportation
and, step by step, of all our industries?
To this end, can there be an appeal to
the head and heart Of every American
citizen more forcible than that which
the fate Of our farmers presents?"

Why the Cat Has Whiskers.

Every one must have observed what
are usually called the whiskers on a
cats upper lip. The use of these, in a
state of nature, is very important. They
are organs of touch. They are attached
to bed of close glands under the skin,
and each of these long hairs is connected
with the nerves of the lip. The slightest
contact of these whiskers with any sur
rounding object is thus felt most dis
tinctly by the animal, although the hairs
themselves are insensible. They stand
out on each side of the lion as well as in
the common cat; so that, from point to
point, they are equal to the width of the
animals body. If we imagine, there
fore, lion stealing through covert of
wood in an imperfect light we shall at
once see the use of these long hairs
They indicate to him, through the incest
feeling, any obstacle which may present
itself to the passage of his body; they
prevent the rustling of boughs and
leaves, which would give warning to his
prey if he was to attempt to pass through
too close bush; and thus, in conjunction
with the soft cushions of his feet and the
fur upon which he treads (the claws never
coming in contact with the ground), they
enable him to move toward his victim
with a stiffness even greater than that
of the snake, which creeps along the
grass and is not perceived until it is
cooled round his prey.-Exchange.

About Money Making.

No one who has any experience can
doubt that money is one of the great
practical forces of organized society.
The poor boy who resolves to make
money" is not necessarily mercenary in
his spirit or low in his aims. To gain a
foothold by the ownership of property is
simply one step on the road to success.
That gained, he has gained great lever
Every energetic, aspiring American boy
may rightly and naturally look forward
to the accumulation of property. But to
wish for money, to seek it, or to use it in
selfish, base spirit, to make it in itself
the first and most important object of life,
is contemplate and degraded manhood.
Think about making money then; think
about it earnestly and with fixed deter
mination to do it; but think quite as
seriously of other and higher things to
be done.-Country Gentleman.
