Business.

Jay Gould is said to have SO mahaseu
his affairs during the month OF Novem-
Der last, as to withhold $75,Ooo,ooo from
business uses-thereby causing ABOUT
S5OO,OOO,OOO of depreciation IN listeo
securities. Of course some body had to
suffer from such depletion OF the soul
less beings, and down came deposltors-
business men, and Banks too. These
financial magnates have not all touched
bottom yet. Those who operate the
markets, get operated on and then the
papers speak out in jeremlads-and
make prophecies. The Earrings may
fail for 800, 100000, and all the financial
centres open up and run to the rescue
Our largest commission merchants 1a'l
for all amounts from $4,000, to S1'7oo'-
900. and all is commiseration, but when
a poor, hard working, self denying
nlanter falls behind 800, he is bounced
upon and devoured without mercy ana
without sympathy. Go to our statutes
and YOU find the capitalist looked after
and provided for, by special privileges
&C., but the producers are left to care
for themselves.

Folly and Wisdom.

Parents often labor hard, and live
sparingly, that they may be able to ac-
cumulate uealh and give their children
a start in the world. But is this not like
tying bladders under their arms because
thew do not know how to swim? Ten
to one they will drown; but teach them
to swim, and they will never need blad-
ders. Parents have your children
taught-give them practical informa-
tion-what is commonly called good
Observation-Disclosures a sound morality,
and these will prove better starts than
money, or estates, without them-and
will secure usefulness and success in
the race they may have to run.

Observe,

That about five hundred years before
the Christion era, Pythagoras called the
visible unirerse. by the Greek name, no
Cosmos the Order We translate this,
the world. Withdrawing from general
nature-the PIatonic school, fixing il on
the epitome-man, began to call him
no mikros Cosmos, the miniature 'corld;
or order in miniature. This serves to
teach US how much useful and instruct
iue history there is in mere words If
our readers would like to pursue this
suggestion, they may find feast of
intellectual pleasure in consulting
French on the study of words.

The Columbia Cycle Calendar

By far the most valuable business
calendar for 1891, and entirely unique
in design, is the Columbia Cycle Cal
endar and Stand, issued by the Pope
Mfg. Co., of Boston, Mass. The Calen-
dar is in the form of pad containing
1866 leaves, each S. Y % inches, one for
each day Of the year, to be torn Oft daily,
and one for the entire year. At The
lower end of each leaf is il blank Tor
memoranda, and as the leaves are only
fastened at the upper END, amy Leaf can
be exposed. No stub is lett wien tie
leaves ale torn off. The pad rests upon
ii stand, containing pen rack aud ptnc!i
holder, and when placed upon the desk
the entire surface OF the date Leaf Is
brought directly and kept constantly
before the eye, making It impossible I"
overlook date nT memoranda. he
stand is made OF stained wood, mounted
with raised letters in brass, thus form
ing al ornamental paper weight. he
day of the week ami the day Of the year,
together with the number OF days to
come, are given, and each Slip bears
short paragraph pertaining to cycling
and kindred subjects. These para
graphs have been carefully C0liated
from leading publications and promi-
nent writer's, the larger uumbrr having
been specially written for this purpose.
Although this is the sixth issue OF the
Calendar, all the matter is fresh and
new, comprising notable events in
cycling, opinions of physicians and
clergymen, hints about road making,
and numerous other topics. the whole
being enough to make a fair sized vol
ume when printed In book type.

impelled by instructive manhood, dared

lightened christian nation demanded
submission, and killed him for resist

SIR JOHN SEES THE DANGER AHEAD.
The Canadian Premier Will Appeal
to the Country Soon.
Annexation and Reciprocity SentI-

choIera's Ravages-ceneraI Foreign
News and Notes.

OTTAWA. Ont, August 24.-Sir John Mac
donald has decided to dissolve Parliament
within short time and appeal to the country
for reelection before Christmas. The natu-
raj term Of the present Parliament does not
expire until 1898. A prominent official in the
confidence of the government says the Liber-
ais have openly stated that next session they
were going to open the whole question Of ex-
tending Canadian trade and commercial rela-
tions with the United States, which they
made the main plank Of their political plat
form. TIE government is aware Of
the rapidly growing feeling in
that direction throughout the
country aud sees danger ahead, II it al
lows this feeling to gain greater strength be-
fore the next election. Sir John cannot
longer ignore the fact that Canada wants to
have her relations with the United States
extended to the utmost possible limit, and to
offer further opposition to the Liberal policy
In Parliament as he would have to do or ad.
NIT his own policy failure, when Parlia-
ment meets next session, would be political
suicide.
