Do Your Best Always.

People will overlook mistakes in
one whom they see to be thoroughly
sincere and in earnest. So put your
life into even the smallest task, and
the doing of it will have powerful
moral influence upon others. Wheth-
er you preach, study, sell goods, till
the soil, saw wood, clean lamps,
cook food or milk COWS, do your best.
There is no task so small, no honest
occupation so common or mental,
that it cannot be dignifed and en-
nobled by the character of the doer.
Bear in mind that not the thing you
do, so much as the doing, reveals the
characteristic true man. Every
thing you do can be made the reve-
lation of a great soul. l have great
respect for the German who saws my
wood and cleans my yard. He is
one of the few men L have ever
known who does everything in the
best possible manner. He has done
this sort Of work for me a year, and
constantly Improves. l know of a
barber who has endeavOred to make
the best possible barber and citizen.
He has succeeded. While no other
barber in the city is even thought of
as being worthy Of any consideration
as citizen, this man is thoroughly
respected. He is constantly enlarg-
ing his shop and force, but always
has more than he can do. There is
perfect order in his place. Men must
act as gentlemen while there. They
find there the best papers and maya
zines, but no police literature, moth
ing a christian gentleman would not

The Gentleman Born.

We are all made of the same clay.
The incest analysis can detect no diff.
ference between the "blue blood"
that runs in the veins of the descend
ant of a line of kings and the "vital
fluidN of pauper; hut there is new
ertheless an Unborn aristocracy of
mind and soul which all men in
stinctively recognize and which COM
pels respect from the haughtiest. Pa
tricians by the accident of birth are
often base, selfish and stupid; but
Gods gentlemen, though reared in
poverty and the heirs of toll, are sure
to manifest their inmate nobility in
spite of adverse circumstances.
The gentleman born has the right
sort of pride, too. He will go out of
his way to show stranger the near
est road to any point he may desire
to reach, share his last crust with a
starving brother, peril his life to pro-
tect woman from insult, and is ever
prompt to assist weakness and avenge
wrong. Yet if you offer him COM
pensations for obeying the impulses
of his knightly nature, his cheek will
redden with Indignation at the
thought of being mistaken for a mer-
cenary, willing to make a trade OF
doing good. His labor he will sell,
but not the services which his noble
heart teaches him are due to all who
are in necessity, tribulation or dan
ger. Such a man, though his spelling
book experiences may be too limited
to enable him to spell the word "ped.
igree," and he may have been trails.

HE S a Brick.

Very few of the thousands who use
the above slang term know its origin
or its primitive significance, Accord
ing to which it is a grand thing to say
of man. "He's a brick" The word
used in its original intent implies all
that is brave, patriotic and loyal.
Plutarch, in his life of Agesilaus,
King of Sparta, gives us the meaning
of the quaint and familiar Repression.
On a certain occasion an ambassador
from Epirus, on diplomatic mission,
was shown by the king over his capt.
tai. The ambassador knew of the
mOnarch's fame-knew that, though
nOminally only King of Sparta, he
was ruler of Greece-and he had
looked to see the massive walls
rearing aloft their embattled towers
for the defence of the city, but found
nothing Of the kind. He marvelled
much at this, and spoke of it to'the
king. "Sire," said he, 81 have Wis
tied most Of the principal towns, and
l find no walls reared for defence.
Why is this ?" "'Indeed, Sir Am
bassador," replied Agesilaus, Thou
canst not have looked carefully.
Come with me tomorrow morning
and will show you the walls of
Sparta" Accordingly on the follow
ing morning the king led his guest
out upon the plain, where his army
was drawn up in full array, and
pointing proudly to the patriot host,
he said: "There thou beholdest the
wall of Sparta-ten thousand mer
and every man a brick"

Chinese Retaliation.


Dayton Times.
The view the Chinese take Of their
exclusion from the United States is
an interesting one, as set forth by the
Chinese minister. lie says unless
the exclusion law is repealed his gov
eminent will retalliate and drive
Americans out of China. There are
millions of American dollars inves>
ted in China, and comparatively few
Chinese dollars invested in America.
1t is therefore Americans who will
suffer most. The exclusion law was
in direct violation of this country's
most solemn treaty with China. The
Chinese idea of where power is
lodged came out in the remark that
Mr.. Blaine has been requested re-
peatedly to have this law repealed,
but no answer had been returned to
the demands. Evidently the Celes-
tial idea of it is that Mr.. Blaine can
repeal the law all himself if he wish
eS.
The minister made several very
neat points. Speaking of cheap
Chinese labor he said it had built our
western railroads and successfully
carried to completion vast industrial
enterprises that would have been
impossible without it. Chinese
cheap labor had been a success
wherever it has been tried. Uuan-
answerable was the minister's final
hit: "You say Cinnamon come to
America and save all the money
they can and then take it home with
them. Well, isn't that exactly what
every American in China is doing ?''

Family Communism.
New England Farmer.

A man and his wife are partners in
business and can have no separate in
terests; whatever is for the best good
of one must be for the best good of
the other. Selfishness, which is the
bane of all our lives, should find no
place between them. There should
be no mine and thine but they should
feel that each has an interest in all
that interests the other. l think there
should be a common fund for the
necessary expense of the family, and
one should have just as free ac-
cess to it as the other. Then there
should be a clear understanding be-
tween them as to (not his but their)
business so that they may know how
much they can afford to spend and
still have enough left to meet the
necessary obligations; and you may
depend upon it, the wife will be just
as careful as the husband about any
extravaganza, but in order to do so
she must know just the state of their
affairs, and everything in business
line should be freely talked over be-
tween them. Then when she sees
something which she is satisfied
comes within their means, simply
say that it is needed and get it; not
going to her husband as though with
her finger in the corner of her mouth
and her eyes cast down, saying
"Could you possibly spare me half a
dollar to get calico dress with? 1
don't see how / can get along any
longer without one" and feeling her.

1t Seems Strange.

1t seems strange that anyone will
make use Of quinine and take their
chances of suffering from such distress
as fullness of the head, headache, diz-
~ sensations, intestinal irritation,
nausea, paralysis, etc., when all the
good effects of quinine are secured by
a use of that harmless discovery of
DIR. John Bull, Of Louisville, KY,
known as Smiths Tonic Syrup. No
harmful effect ever follows the use of
this syrup, and it tastes so good that
children will ask for it. 1t has never

Why Not be Democrats.

The address issued by the Farmers
Alliance of Minnesota, which recent
ly assembled at st. Paul, is in some
respects peculiar as indicating the
drift of public sentiment in that
quarter. The following is an eXN
tract from that address.
"Very recently a United States
Judge invaded sovereign State ac-
cOmpanied by an assassin who MUIR
dered a citizen of that State. The
Supreme Court stepped in and res
cued the assassin declaration that in
such cases the law of the State was
of no avail.
"The State of New York condem-
ned murderer to death, according to
a law enacted by its Legislature. A
Judge of the Supreme Court Of the
United States reached out his hand
and that criminal, that murderer, I'M
der his protection, declaring that a
State could not punish its own MUIR
derers except by permission and in a
manner prescribed by a Federal
court.
1.-THE State of Minnesota created a
railroad commission to stand between
the people and the roads to prevent
the latter from exacting eXtortionate
rates. The roads are the creation of
the State and hold their charters from
the State; yet this same Supreme
court has decided that there creations
are greater than their creator; that a
part is greater than the whole; that
the State who made the roads has no
power to regulate and govern them
until it gets its permission from that
autocrat tribunal of the American
Republic.
"In the case of the law prohibiting
the sale of dressed beef, which your
Legislature passed to protect the pub
lie health, this same court has enact
ed the role of the schoolmaster and
descended to administer lecture tC
your Legislature, charging them with
insincerity and lying in that they
justified the law on the ground o.
protecting the public health, when in
reality the object of the law was
something else.
"The bred Scott decision rendered
the name of fancy infamsus for the
reason that it made slavery natiOna
and compelled free men to become
slave-catchers. These judges aspire t.
even greater sublimity of infamy
because their decisions contemplate
the ensIavement of the whole Amer
lean people.
These Farmers have heretofore
voted with the Republican party
whose principles they here condemn
They are now on the Democratic
platform and ought to come into tn
party that supports their principles
