The Halifax Herald hits the nail
squarely on the head, as every work
ingman will see, when it says: China
is cheap country to live in. About
five cents day will provide a native
with all the food he needs. And yet
there is strong disposition on the part
of its people to get into Canada and the
United States notwithstanding the in
creased cost of the necessaries of life in
these countries. This cheap-country-to-

Advice to People Wishing to be Healthy,
Wealthy and Wise.
Get down to business if you intend to
accomplish anything This flirting with
work doesn't count worth a cent.
Confound a man who puts on style and
spends his money away from home and
makes his family eat sorghum on their
bread to make up for it.
Some men never have any time to do
their unfortunate fellow beings good
turn, but they always have plenty of time
to lay around and enjoy themselves.
The sweetest song the heart can sing is
the song of gratitude. The heart that can
take and take and never give would dis
grace the bosom of hog.
When man is always laying of to do
something great he never gets anything
done. The only way to accomplish any
thing is to begin on small things and do
whatever comes along.
Gray hair isn't any more sign of wis
dom than rosy cheeks are sign of health.
Some people get gray hair from fright,
some from dissipation and some from Using
bad hair oil.
A man who says he doesn't want any
friends isn't liable to have any. Such a
man is a good one to steer clear Of, for if
he gets stuck on any one it is for some
selfish purpose, and his friendship isn't
worth having anyway.

THE SEVEN AGES OF MAN.

At seven years,
In hopes first draught
His dreams are OF the billions
Sweet confidence supports him
AS he nightly spends his millions.
At fourteen years,
The glitter pains,
on the million mark he fxesp
But, hope inflated, Oft reflects
Twixt o. es, twos. threes or skies.
At twenty-one,
The rosate hue
Cleans bright on hundred thousands
And all his dreams are mental plans
OF country place and housings
At twenty-eight,
The golden age,
Five figures, well invested, with
Bank accounts and friends galore,
And stocks by bears well tested.
At thirty-hye,
In the swim.
Checks for thousands ne'er protested;
Content, perehance, in dreams to be
By creditors unmolested.
At forty-two,
Perspective dim,
Some hundreds and cottage,
With steady Job we find to be,
The eaper for his dotage
At forty-nine,
The vista blue,
His hopes (deserred) to fifty sinners borrow
Right glad he'd sell to raise the wind
To pay that rote tomorrow.
Hope springs eternal in human breast,
We hear the poet trolling;
But well he knows that temper fails,
And springs but ease the falling;

True Democracy and secret
organizations are incOmpat-
ible. They are as opposite as
virtue and vice. When one
enters the other must 90 out
or hide in shame. Democracy
is the soal of liberty; secret
organizations are the fore
runners of inquisitions and
despotisms. No secret politi-
cal organization has eversu,
ceeded in a democracy, ex-
cept to abridge the rights OF
it's adherents and impair the
usefulness of the organiza-
tions which have for their Oh
|ject the protection and pro.
motion of constitutional gov
eminent and the preserva'
tion Of the personal liberty
of the citizen. When a mar
enters a secret organization
for the purpose Of controlling
the political actions OF hi
fellows he leaves true Democ
racy behind him and violates
every principle ofpopularlib

.J0r the Democrat
Republican audacity can
scarcely 20 farther than it
did on Saturday when one OF
the doork 'epers Of the House
claiming to be acting under
instructions from the Speak
or, attempted to use force to
prevent Representative En-

few minutes. Mr.. Enloe, as
any other American citizen
would have done, insisted
upon his right to gn and
come as he pleased. Later,
Mr.. Enloe brought the mat
ter before the House as a
question Of personal privi-
lege, and very naturally
wanted to know if theSpeak
er had issued such instruc,
tions, and if 40 by what au-
thOrity.
The Speaker denied having
issued such Instructions; but
at the same time stated it al
his opinion that the door
keeper had done right. st
