Yes, you pass it along, whether
you believe it or not; and that one
sided whisper against the character
of virtuous woman or an honorable
man, you don't believe it, but you
will use your influence to bear up
the false report and pass it into the
current. Strange creatures are men
and women. How many regulations
have been lost by surmise? How
many hearts have been bled by whis-
pers? How many benevolent deeds
have heen chilled by the shrug Of
a shoulder? How many chaste bo-
SONS have been wrung with grief by
single nod? How many graves
have been dug by false reports!
Yet you will keep it above water by
the wag of your tongue, when you
might sink it forever. Destroy the

girls when her busy hands are fold
ed quietly over that loving heart
that has ceased TO beat, how your

that it mother would only come back
she would be loved and pctted as

A Bounty for Farmers.

Owners of prairie land will bt
pleased to learn that the last lie gis-
lature of Missouri passed an act, sec.
ton 5, 165 of the Revised Statutes
providing that every person plant.
ing one acre or more of prairie land
with forest trees (black locust ex.
cepted) and cultivating the same for
three years, shall receive from the
county court a bounty of 81 per
acre each year for term of fifteen
years, or $50 per acre for the whole
time.
II trees are planted lengthways,
one or two rods apart, the bounty is
two dollars per year for every quar-
ter of mile.
The above legislative act is to be
highly commended, as it will encour-
age timber culture where it is most
needed. Besides it is an income to
the prairie farmer-$30 bounty each
acre In fifteen years, and the value
of timber is almost equal. The new
law deserves to be generally known.

Once upon time Rufus Choate
was In Washington and had spent
all the money he had with him, be.
sides exhaustlng his bank account
by checks on it. He and Daniel
Webster were alike in respect to
bank accounts, that they knew no
other use for one than to exhaust
it. But Choate needed money and
went to Webster to borrow some.
81 have dollar said Webster
musingly, and then he added: But
see here, Choate. You say you want
$500. Make out your note for that
amount, I'll lndorse 1t, and Corcoran
& Riggs will let you have the mon.
ey."
Choate Immediately agreed, when
Webster continued:
"While you are at ii you may as
well make the note for $1,000 and
give me $500, too"
And so the note was drawn, and,
remaining always unpaid, is retained
as souvenir in the banking house
of Corcoran & Riggs, at Washington,
to this day.

100000 more subscribers in this

By virtue Of an ancient law that
still holds good in Paris, the owner
of house that stands vacant is not
compelled to pay any taxes on it at
all, fact that causes the landlords
to be very inhexible in their dealings
with tenants. An unfurnished fat
is never let by the year. 1t must be
taken for full three years, the lea.
running for three, SIX or nine years,
at the option of the landlord and the
tenant if both be agreed. That is TO
say, at the end of the first three
years the landlord can move out the
tenant, or the tenant can give notice
of his or her departure, but if that
formality is not gone through with
three months before the end of the
term, both parties are bound for an
other three years. The tenant has
to pay all the taxes on his habitation
The addition of saccharine matter
to mortar enables brick-laylng TO be
carried on in frosty weather. In adj
dltion to this advantage, mortar with
sugar mixed in it is vastly superior
to mortar without 1t. 1t sets as hard
as cement ve:y soop, makes the
brickwork extremely strong, and is
quite effective when used with dry
brick. For indoor plasterIng, also,
saccIIarated mortar sets hard quick
Iy. Where portions of the same
wall have been covered in one part
with sugared and in another part
with unsugared mortar, the latter
has ripped up directly when a nail
was run over it months after the for
mer had become as hard as stone.

Queer Phases of Crime.

James Payn in a recent homily on crimi
mails says that honorable rascals are rare,
but there have been some OF them, and he
cites two interesting cases One is that OF
the convicts of Philadelphia who in 1898
showed a very unexpected good feeling.
The yellow fever broke out in the town,
and they volunteered to nurse the sick,
who were dying like flies. None of them
attempted to escape, though they had ev-
cry opportunity to do so, and were en-
trusted with horses and carts to bring in
provisions for the poor, which the dealers
dared not do. When the pestilence ceased
all who survived returned to the prison.
Moreover, the female convicts cheerfully
gave up their beds to the sick, which, it is
curious to note, the debtors in the Jail all
refused to do.
The other instance occurred during the
revolutionary war Two soldiers of the
army of Lord CORVALLIS went into house
and treated the inmates in a most shame
full manner A third soldier met them
coming out and recognized them. He was
in no way to blame, but since he declined
to give up the names Of his comrades he
was sentenced to the punishment they had
incurred. Lord CORVALLIS rode up to him
when on the gallows.
Campbell be said. what a fool you
are to die thusi Give up their namesP
''You are IN an enemy's country, my
lord" was the firm reply, ''and you can
better spare one man than two"
And he was hanged.
