AN EPIDEMIC OF BLOODY FLUX

AN EPIDEMIC OF BLOODY FLUX.
Last summer the flux ragged here to a
fearful extent. About five miles north of
here at the Whiteside grave yard there
were five victims of this dreadful eisease
buried in one day; the doctors could do
nothing with the disease. When my fam
lily were taken, went to Walter Brothers
of Waltersburg, and told them the situa
ton; they said give Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhea Remedy-that they
had sent out several hundred bottles into
the infected district, and every day we
hear how this medicine is curing them;
so far we have not heard of it failing in
single instance" / went to giving it and
could soon see the good effects, and cure
was the result. Anyone in doubt about
these facts may write to mel. G. Ellis,

Low PERCENTAGE OF OUR TARIFF RATES.
Much has been said about the high
rates imposed upon our imports. The
matter Of percentages is one in which
persons can be easily misled. The Free
trade organs and orators when they
speak Of the average per cent. of duty
speak only of the per cent. upon the du-
table list. They leave out Of account
entirely the free list. They speak not of
the average rates applied to all our i'm
ports, but only as applied to the two
thirds which are dutiable. This is not
fair. If all our imports were free but
tobacco, and that had rate of 200 per
cent, upon their basis our tariff rates
would be 200 per cent.
True, tobacco might be but twen-
tieth part Of our imports, yet by their
figuring the average rate would be 200
per cent. The on1y fair way is to take
the whole body Of our imports and the
duties collected and see what per cent.
of the value of the whole Of the imports
the whole of the duty yielded is. Last
year our imports of merchandise were in
value S745, 181 1853, yielding an aggregate
of duty of 1920, SIC, $3.50 (see Executive
Document No. Q, Fifty-fi congress, first
session, page 81. This aggregate duty
Is 29.6 per cent Of the aggregate imports.
In other words, our present tariff rates,
denounced so severely, average only 29.6
per cent.
If corresponding value Of imports
$745, 131 ,652-were to come in under the
rates fixed in this bill as it was reported
to the house the yield of duty would be
5000, ,909, 179.18 an average rate Of 1896.
ct must be remembered that part of
the $31 900, 900 Of reduction comes from
the internal revenue sections) But some
changes were made in it during its pas
sage through the house, ard the rates
fixed In it as it passed would yield upon
the same basis an aggregate duty of
s206, ,3344, 3344 ,;977.77, this would be an average
rate Of 27.69 per cent. In other words.
the Mckinley monster" as 1t was
called at the time of its passage In the
house, imposes an average duty of 27.69
per cent. as against the present. rate of
1890.
This percentage is not subject TO the
uncertainties heretofore spoken of, be-
cause as the volume of imports increased
or diminished, 30 In corresponding ratio
would the resultant volume of duties
increase or diminish, the ratio or per
cent. remaining the same know these
figures will surprise many, but they are
irrefutable. l have been careful to fig
ure out these percentages separately to
show the correctness of the result. Tab
ulated they are as follows
Importations Duty. Per ct
Present. -. .s745, 13i GS2 s2eO $40, $500 20G

As passed. 745, ,1a1.652 eO6,344,077.T 27GO
So carefully have the rates been ad-
justed in this bill that there results re-
duction Of revenue, an addition of sugar
and other articles to the free list, and a
increase In Protection to ouz
agricultural products, together with a
reduction in the rate per cent. upon the
line Of imports taken as a whole.

LIFE is school with its various class
es, and he who lives it Alright knows
that each one is meant to be prepara-
tion for the next. Has he learned the
lessons of one? If SO he will gladly en-
ter the next, knowing that many failures
await him, but that none can be so ig-
nominious as the stagnation of mind
and heart that would prevent him from
entering in.
WHAT matters it where your feet
stand, or wherewith your hands are busy,
so that it is the spot where God has put
you and the work he has given you to
do? Your real life is within, hid in God
and Christ, ripening and strengthening
and waiting, as though the long dark
ages of night and incompleteness waited
the germs of all that was to unfold in
this actual, green and bounteous earth.
1T is great mistake, on going to set
tie in new place, whether for a long or
short period, to rush too suddenly into
peoples arms; it is so easy to take peo-
pie up, and so very difficult to drop them.
In fact, very many people will not be
dropped; they make themselves so act
lively disagreeable if try to avoid
their society that You must perforce
keep up a show of friendship, if nothing
more; if they think there is anything to
be gained by keeping up your acquaint-
ance, they will take care you do not shun
them.

INprivate life, and in all life, the best
motives to action are those which lie
outside of self and its supposed interests.
To cherish in every employment some
glimpse of and interest in the good it is
to produce in the world, introduces a
finer element into the labor and brings
forth better work than can be educed
by the hope of personal benefit to the
worker. --s---------

No young person should consider it
an advantage to get rid of parental su
pervision and care. There is no other
institution like the family; there is no
other love like the parental love; there
is no other friendship like the friendship
of father and of mother.

IF the purposes of life are to be givers
of joy, they must be noble purposes
Low aims and purely selfish projects,
while they may incite TO temporary in
dustry, carry with them the seeds of
failure and disappointment; for when
pleasure alone is sought for as an end
and aim, it eludes the grasp. When we
think we have secured it, it turns to
ashes.
