FREE SPEECH. ..
 A member of the legislature from Beverly, Massachusetts, brought suit against fellow townsman who said of the member in pub- lie speech: Y. 1T am sorry that the representa- tive from this district has had change of heart. Sometimes the change of heart comes from the pocket" The member brought suit for damages, alleging that this was slan- der. The speaker demurred to the conn., plaint, the superior court sustained the de- murrer, the member appealed, and the su- preme court now afirms the judgment of the superior court in careful opinion, in the course ofs which 1t holds that caution is necessary in applying strict interpretations of law and precedent to words spoken of public men in their public capacity. s'since freedom of speech and of the press is guar anteed by the constitution, and entire free- dom of discussion in respect to the character and conduct of public men is deemed essen- tial to ths judicious exercise of the right of suffrage, and of that control over their rulers which resides in the free people of the United States" The words complained of did not charge the legislator with having actually sold his vote, "but only at most that in the speakers opinion the plaintiff is corrupt at heart and open to pecuniary inducements. The expression of the defendants opinion that the plaintiff as a member of the legislature is of such disposition, wavering in mind, and open to change his course from improper motives and Inducements, is not actionable without averment and proof of special damsges.''
 This is an interesting, if not very import ant decision. The legislator who took the trouble and spent the money to get it is en- titled to the thanks of the people.

NEW RNGL AND FARms.


 \ The New Hampshire commissioner of ag- riculture has made his report concerning the abandoned farms of that State. It Is not an entirely gloomy report. He Ends that the value of the live stock in New Hampshire has increased half million dollars annually for the past two years and farm improvements have increased in about the same degree. The State is annually advancing in agricul- tural interest and methods, there Is a con- stantly increasing dem and for farm products of all kinds, for which the prices paid corre- spond with the prices in the Boston market, and are cash sales at the farmers doors. But there are in the State l. ,442 abandoned farms with tenantable buildings, and the commissioner says: "Many of the abandoned farms are more desirable at the present time than when they became vacated, by the ex- tension of railroads, the establishment of creameries and the rapid development of the summer boarding industry throughout the State."
 New Hampshire wants these farms taken by anybody who will buy and use them, and the same want Is felt in all the New England States. The New York Evening Post sug- gests that the abandoned farms of New England be bought by inhabitants of cities, who could live on them during the summer months. Says the Post: There are enough of such persons, we believe, to occupy just in this way all of New England that may be had for such purpose If only they knew where and how to accomplish 1t and if they knew how little it would cost each of them to own real country place full of natural beauty, 8 paradise for children, with oon- venient means of wholesome living. secluded, yet not cut of from the necessaries or even tho conveniences of life. It is incredible, almost, that so many people should bs willing to spend the summer in close rooms when they might have at no more expense commodious house and all outdoors be- sides, wit h entire freedom or chosen com panionship at their will and the sense of proprietorship in fields and streams and woods and hills, which in almost every class of society Is one of the deepest and longest abiding pleasures.
 This is suggestion which will perhaps not be very extensively acted upon, but 1t ought to be. There are thousands of people who waste money enough every summer trying to find rest and recreation to buy . good farm and make the farm house com- fortable. They would profit in health and pocketbook if they would spend their money in moro sensible way.

''Gentlemen," said the sewing machine man, Gone spring father and had sugar camp down in the edge of the grove. About half mile from us was cornfield owned by a widow. and this widow never picked her corn clean. On the other side was man who owned blind SOW. She had one pig, and they used to go over into that corn field every day to eat corn. Right in front of our camp was creek. At one place about forty rods from our camp there was a tree felled across the creek. This was the only place that the SOW and pig could cross. Of course the SOW could not see to cross on the log, so the way they used to do was for the old SOW to take hold of the pigs tail and the pig would lead her across. We'll, one day we were sitting in front of our camp when the old SOW and pfo were crossing the log. said to father, Hand me the rife and see mo cut that pigs tall of. 7 l. took aim and fired, cutting that lttle pi9'a

THE NERVOUS SYSTEM.
"PEARS-Ths esdt English comphdon S0ARs--SoId Eysy

When we remember how completely under the control of the nervous system, both in health and disease, is tho regulation of all the functions of the body, we cannot fail to understand how necessary it Is for the nerv- ous system to be in health.
 The nervous system is like the VALVE GEAR of steam engine which determines the supply of steam to the cylinder. It con- trols the movements of the entire engine, but its own movement is in turn regulated by that of the engine.
 The normal activity of the nervous appa. ratus maintains all the other organs in steady, regular, healthy action, but is itself in turn kept in normal action by the proper functionating of the latter. There Is nice equilibrium between the two, which is the condition of health disturbance of one will disturb the other, the equilibrium will be overturned, and the whole constitution will feel the reeult

bird trainer and many of the sellers of sweets, the dulceros, are gipsies. The ''show gipsies" of Granada and Seville, thousands in number, are genuine members of the race, but are held in greater loathtng by the better classes of their own race than by the Spaniards themselves. Another vo- cation, always most popular in this country, has attracted the attention of Spanish gtp- sies. There are thausands all told engaged in various capacities about the hundreds Of bull rings of Spain. They are the expertest known chules, bauderilleros, picadors. and even matadors and espadas, of the present day.

They de- monstrated improvement. Yes, all these things were still practiced; but to surpri- singly less extent. Respectable Qipsies had foresWorn these things absolutely. To illus trate, no woman in this band had told for tune in dozen years. Swindling through all forms of gipsy iugglery was now confined almost wholly to the town gipsies, and to limited number of these. They confessed this might be less a moral than a selfish evo- lution. The great mass of Spanish gipeies were beginning to emulate those who like Pancho (Whose credit with merchants and bankers here at Barcelona I find exceeds one hundred thousand dollars) had become traders, and, in @ way, business men. Their ambition to become other than ssgipsy dogs" had been aroused through Ripsy example. Precisely as in America, Spanish gipsies within the past fifty years have become the middlemen between the raisers of cattle, horses and mules and the city markets. Books were still unknown to them; but the friction of affairs and the dignity of owner ship and responsibility brought increased
