The states have reduced their debts to
this extent, the report says, mainly by
applying to the redemption of their Oh
ligatious the revenues not needed for
current expenses. In few cases, how
ever, a reduction of the debt has been
effected by the enforced redemption of
obligations at a discount. but the
amount of reduction through this pro-
cess cannot be ascertained until the
statements of outstanding debts in
those states have been compared with
the cash receipts and expenditures on
account of the debt for the same
period, and the differences noted.
The total bonded debt of the United
States is shown to have been S1,709, $685.
100 in 1880 and S719. 17S, $40 in 1890. The
bonded debt of the several states in
1880 was S259, ,037, ,456 and S194, 1854, ,206 at
the present time, making total de-
crease of S1,054, ,S97, ,7S0, state and ma
tionaI. AS to the county Indebtedness,
the report shows the total bonded debt
of the 2,909 counties in the United

as against $104, 1913, ,752 in 1880. The

One of the attractions at a church fair
recently held in Norwich. Conn. was a

persons contributed 10 cents each. Each
sub: criber drew a slip of paper from

to pick one out. The person who had at
the first drawing obtained the slip Sc
lected by the monkey was entitled to 80
cents, 10 cents going to the fair fund.
After each drawing by the monkey the
slips were destroyed. One nighta young
man won over $50 at this little game of
chance. Nearly every time the monkey
drew the slip this young man had Sc
lected at the first drawing. Those pres

This includes not quite three million gal

rather than below 20 cents per gallon.
At 20 cents the cost to the dealers would
be SiJ3, 3,517.411. The retailers get an
average Of go cents per gallon, which
makes the cost Of the consumers $780,

The Moral Teachlngs Of scIence.

What we want is clear and intelligi-
BILE basis on which we can take our stand
in the work of life. If it were true that
selfishness is the universal law of pro-
gress, then the sooner we learn the truth
the better. But if this is not so, we need
have no fear that the study of natural
laws will mislead us into believing 1t.
With our limited knowledge we may
often be perplexed, but so long rs we do
not overstrain the facts we shall not be
confounded If it be true that the in
stincts which lead us to be just and mer-
ciful. honest and unselfish, pure and af
fectionate, to fear moral degradation
and to aspire to nobleness of character,
are inherent in the very laws of our
being, then we shall find the gradual
development of these qualities in the
groundwork of living nature In
word we shall find evidence that high
. moral duties are not merely true because
all religions have taught them. but that
all religions have taught them because
they are true. If we can establish this
conclusion, though much must remain
uncertain, so long as our view is SO linn
tied, yet we shall have found firm ground
upon which the scientific and religious
sanctions of morality meet, afiording a
bulwark against the flood of scepticism
as to all things noble and good which
threatens to overwhelm u.s. Arabella
