USES OF FRIENDSHIP.
They Should BE Nobler Than the Me
Indulging of Selfishness.

Indulging of Selfshness.
There are many people to whom the
chief use of friendship seems to be the
abuse of it. A friend to most of us is
more or less consciously person whom
we may treat not only with less cere-
mony than we do others, but with less
justice as we'll. To presume upon the
good nature of friend is one of the
most insidious of all the temptations
with which weak and feeble human nat
ure is beset, and it is one of the most
frequently successful ones. We are all
of us SO likely to be guilty in this re-
spect that it is'hardly safe for any man
to begin on this score to fling stones at
his neighbor. It is so easy to excuse
ourselves for wrongs which are not re-
scented that sometimes one wonders
whether after all conscience is not at
least three parts out of five respect for
somebody's opinion of us.
And the worst of this is that we al
most inevitably respect our friend some
what less for submitting to our il1-usage
of him. We do him little injustices,
triflings which he is too fond of us to re-
sent even when he feels them, and out
of his generosity we make an excuse for
holding him of less account, and conse-
quently for loving him less and impos-
ing upon him more. This is often the
history of the course of married life.
One or the other of a couple yields toe
much and too often, moved by over
much affection to give way, and the re-
suit is that he or she wins only more
or less conscious conteE pit. The truth
is that even in friendship we are all hui
man, and 1t is we'll to reflect that if one
desires to hold the regard of his friend
it is necessary to hold also his respect.
1t is sometimes wise to displease a
friend for his own good and for the sake
of holding his affection up to its level.
This is, of course, looking at the
thing from two points of view. On the
one hand it is the tendency of all of us
to take advantage of our friends; on
the other, it is most unwise for any one
to allow friend whom he values to do
any thing of the sort, and the comrade
upon whom we attempt to impose is
really most kind to US when he reso-
lutely resists such an encroachment
upon his rights. He compels our re-
spect, and after the irritation of the
moment, if we are SO human and so I'M
generous as to feel any, as it is most
probable that we shall, has passed
away, the increased respect in which we
are constrained to hold him calls our
affection up to a new height. Our best
friend is by no means the one who most
completely effaces himself that our
selfishness may have full play. Friend
ship that is worthy the name is built
upon more enduring basis, and its use
is nobler than the mere INDUCING of
unbridled seltishness.-Boston Courier.

Maryland biscuit" which owes much
of it's delicacy to the fact that before
baking it is pounded ana beaten by
piece of heavy iron. Some people used
one kind of beater and some another,
but we had had made for the purpose
heavy iron club a little over a foot long,
large and heavy at one end and
handle at the other. In my present
household Maryland biscuit were never
made, but / had preserved this iron beat
er as memento of my boyhood, and
when the burglaries began In our vicin-
ity gave it to David to keep in his
room, to be used as a weapon If neces-
sary. / did not allow him to have a
pistol, having 4 regard for my own safe
ty in sudden night alarm, and nothing
could be more formidable in hand to
hand encounter than this skuI-ccushing
club.
| began with the tall man, and rapidly
tied his feet together with many twists
of the rope and many knots. | then
turned him over and tied his elbows be-
hind him in the same secure way. l
had given so much thought to the best
method of securing a man by cords that
| do not think this fellow could possibly
have released himself when | had
finished with him.
David was obeying my orders and
keeping strict watch on the PROSTATE
men, but his emotions of amazement
were SO great that he could not keep
them down.

he said. ''How did they come SOP
There is no time for talking now" l
answered. Il will tell you all about it
when the men have been secured
[ now turned my attention to the
man who was partly resting against
the lounge. | first tied his feet, and be-
fore letting him down to the floor, so as
to get to his arms, | removed his hat
and his mask, which was made of black
muslin. / was surprised to see the
beardless face of young and
very good-looking man. He was
we'll dressed and had the gen
eral appearance of person be-
longing to theatrical circles. When his
arms had been tied l told David he
might lay down his biscuit-beater and
help me with the third man, who was
badly mixed up with the debris of the
refreshments. We hauled him out and
tied him up. He was rather short
man, but very heavy, and / could see no
signs of his having been hurt by the
smash-up he had made in falling.

AN EXTRAORDINARY CASE.
A baroness Who Thinks More of Her
Horses Than of Their Grooms.

A baroness Who Thinks More of Her
Horses Than of Their Grooms.
An extraordinary case has been oc-
;upYRg the law courts at Vienna dur
ing c.le past week. Four grooms in
the service of Baroness Won Stahlberg
brought an action against her for dam
ages for in iuries received in her stables,
which the grooms described as para
disc for horses and hell for men"
From the evidence of the witnesses it
appeared that the Baroness was in the
habit of entering the stable at noon and
of remaining until early the next morn
ing. During the time she was there
she fed the animals with sugar and
cakes and encouraged them to kick and
bite the grooms. whom she kept in con-
slant attendance upon the horses, then
forcing them to stay up all night
TO wash and feed them. One of
the witnesses stated that he had been dis
missed by the Baroness for insulting
n particularly vicious horse by cursing
II for having both kicked and bitten
him. At least twenty of the persons IN
court bore traces of injuries received In
the stable of the Baroness.
Fortunately there are but few horse
women like her in Austria, and the rae
inn stables of Countess Marie Apponyl
and of Countess Livia Itchy are re-
garded by the grooms ana Jockeys as
paradise for the men as well as for the
horses Countess Apponyi has her rae
ing colors duly registered at the Jockey
Club and is famous in the sporting
world for having won the Austrian
DERBY twice in succession. She is the
owner of the well known horse Nemesis.
Here in Berlin there are also several
ladies of aristocracy who own racing
stables. none of which, however, has as
vet achieved the celebrity of that pos
sessed bv the Countess de Prittwltz.-

and went away with it the better. OF
course, she wished them kept out, if such
a thing were possible, but if they
did get in, our duty, as parents of the
dearest of little boys, was non-interfer-
ence. She insisted, however, that the
room in which the loveliest of children
slept. and which was also occupied by
ourselves, should be made absolutely
burglar-proof, and this object. by means
of extraordinary bolts and chains, | flat
tered myself | accomplished. My Aunt
Martha had a patent contrivance for
fastening door that she always used,
whether at home or travelling, and in
whose merit she placed implicit conf
dence. Therefore we did not feel it
necessary to be anxious about her; and
the servants slept at the top of the house,
where thieves would not be likely to go.
They may continue to slight US by
their absence" said my wife, but I do
not believe that they will be able to
brighten us by their presence"
| was not, however, so easily contented
as my wife. OF course | wished to do
every thing possible to protect George
William and the rest of the family, but
I was also very anxious to protect our
property in all parts Of the house. There
fore, in addition to every thing else |
had done, | devised a scheme for inter
fering with the plans of men who should
feloniouslY break into our home.
After. a consultation with a friend,
who was a physician greatly interested
in the study of narcotic drugs, pro-
cured a mixture, which was almost
tasteless and without peculiar odor, and
of which a small quantity would in less
than a minute throw an ordinary man
into state of Inconsistencies. The
potion was, however, no more danger
Gus in its effects than that quantity of
ardent spirits which would cause entire

Poverty Has Increased In a Greater
Ratio Than Formulation.

When we reflect that the wealth OF
the United States has increased more
than 500 fold within the past century,
that there is enough now to give over
81, 900 TO each man. woman and child
in the nation, while then division
would have given each one less than
$50. yet with all this marvellous growth
in wealth, poverty has increased in
greater ratio than the population, we
know that something is all wrong and it
is our mission and duty to discover what
it is-Fronl an address by Il. b. Far

time, for his security is growing each
year as the farmer clears and improves
his place In good crop years the in
debtedness is reduced. but in bad crop
years the store account is not fully paid,
up. and so the farmer gives the store-i
keeper second mortgage on the land.
The storekeeper is finally forced to take
up the first mortgage, and, finding that
too large share of his capital is being
taken away from active business, he
forces the farmer to borrow elsewhere. !
The farmer goes to a mortgage COM
pany and borrows on long time, but
unless extremely fortunate he never
pays up. But the company does not
care much about the principal so it
is secured. and the farmer goes on from
year to year paying an interest that
would amount to good rent, and
though he thinks of himself as land
owner, he really is tenant and some
year, when from poor crops orsillness,
he falls farther than usual behind, the
mortgage will be foreclosed, and he
will become in name as we'll as in fact
tenant And as he takes up his work
again-for his family must live-he will
ask himself what his work and saving
during all these years have brought him.
He has cleared place and built cabins
on it and fenced it, and now it has all
gone to the mortgage company and he
| is paying rent on his own improve
ments. His feelings toward the mort
gage company that has taken from him
the land made fruitful by his toll can
be better imagined than expressed; and
when the election comes he will vote
for the candidate who promises to pass
the most severe laws against all mort
gage companies.
But has our friend found his real
enemy? Think it over. friends. Who
ruined him? He has dealt with three
men, the land speculator who sold him
the land, the storekeeper and the
mortgage loan company. Which ono
of these is at the bottom of his trouble?
Think::this over, and next week we will
| take the matter up again where we
| left off, In the meantime remember
the words of Evan Jones, THE HOPE OF
AMERICA DEPENDS UPON THE OWNER

Some farmers fear the single
tax because they have been told
that it will increase their taxes.
This Is a mistake. The single
tax will reduce the taxes of tho
working farmer aud increase tho
taxes OF the land speculator. No
one but land speculator can OBJ

Reminiscence of the Johnstown Flood

Remintscence OF the JohnstOwn Flood.
Soon after the great flood in the Cone
maugh valley, Penn, last summer, the
press dispatches heralded the news of
an epidemic of diarrh9a in Johnstown.
The following letter from Rev. H. l..
Chapman, pastor of the Methodist-Epis-
copal church, Johnstown, gives the
particulars and most successful remedy
used:
The box of six dozen Chamberlain's
Collie, Cholera and Diarrh9a Remedy,
which you sent at the suggestion of
Hon. Wesley Redhead, reached us soon
after the great flood and at a time when
diarrhea was quite prevalent. AS soon
as it became known that had the med
icine for distribution, there began a
great run on it, which continued until
it was about all gone. Every one, so
far as l heard from them, testified to
its virtues, declaring it the best medi-
cine for the purpose they had ever used.
Those who got it shared it around with
their neighbors, so that l am confident
your generosity in sending it was pro-
ductive of great good We used some
of it ourselves and found it not only an
excellent medicine for diarrhea, but
for all kinds of pains and uneasiness in
the stomach and bowels. 1t has been
regarded as the best medicine known
here for the diseases it is recommended
for. In view of your sending such a
large quantity for free distribution
among poor people, 1 think you are en-
titled to this testimonial in it's favor
