Miss Lillian Headifen is an active
member Of the Eastern District Single
Tax Club, rarely missing any of the
meetings Her rare musical talent and
sweet disposition have endeared her to
the members. Asked as to the reasons
which induced her to accept the single
tax, she said: II first attended meet
ing of the Eastern District Club on invi-
tation of Mrs Deverall, who asked me
to come and sing. Solely to oblige her

Those people who are constantly fig.
uring on time when this old globe
will not be able to supply room and food
for its inhabitants, will not find much
to support their theory in the Registrar.
Generals returns for last year for En-
gland and Wales. These tables show
that the excess of births over deaths
has been steadily declining for the last
five years. In 1889 the excess was 367,-
224, while according to the results Of
the last two census years the increase
should have been $50, 423. TIE birth
rate was also remarkably low, being 2. 5
per thousand below the average of the
previous decade, while the marriage
rate has not corresponded to the in
creased prosperity Of the country. Ma
ture has way of adjusting herself to
mans requirements which sometimes
gives setback to statisticians and theo
rists. Record.

ct, SO there was no doubt of him being
the thief, and after awhile he confessed
to the charge.
The fellow was naturally vindictive
and cruel, and two or three times dur
ing the summer he had cruelty beaten
the old goat, and the beast had formed
q strong dislike for him.
He knew of the money being in Mr..
Ramsey's house. and knew also of Mr..
and Mrs. Ramsey going away, so he re-
solved to attempt the robbery, and was
waiting behind the hedge for that pur-
pose when Lou left the house.
After getting the money he went out
the back way, and was making of, when
Parker's goat happened along, and gave
chase and at last butted him over in the
weeds where he broke through the cover
ing and fell into the we'll, and was held
fast prisoner the rest of the day.
Parker's goat was not killed, since he
had unconsciously captured a thief and

MANIA FOR LITIGATION.
The Most Costly Luxury In Which q San,
Person Can Indulge.

The Most Costly Luxury In Which q sane
Person Can Indulge.
A mania for going to law seems to
possess no inconsiderable portion of our
population. The calendars of our courts
lengthen with every term, and judges re-
gard with dismay the frightful accumu-
lation of cases. Cynical people insist
that the immense number of young law
yers turned loose upon the community
every year has something to do with
the tremendous impulse that has been
given to litigation within the last few
years.
Immoral GLACIERS out of employ have
been known to incite idle boys to break
the windows of exemplary citizens,
with the view of creating demand for
the services of a penetrating class; and
it is asserted-libelously, perhaps-that
people who live in glass houses are
egged on to throw stones at each other
by newly-fedged counselors, who hope
to profit by the damage However this
may be, it is quite certain that the pro-
portion of litigants to the population at
large is much greater now than it was
ten years ago.
To be sure, the demand for all costly
Injuries increases every year; but law
is so ruinously expensive, as a general
rule, that one would think the most
reckless spend-thrift would hesitate to
indulge in it. And yet, strange to say,
grave, sedate and even apparently
pious, self-denying members of society
are continually getting entangled in
suits, cross suits and other legal meshes,
from which, in nine cases out of ten,
there is no escape until the parties con-
cerned have been thoroughly pigeoned.
Anybody can set the legal ball in mo-
ton; nobody can tell when it will stop.
1t can not be too strongly impressed
upon individuals of litigious spirit
that there are usually seven requisites
to success in law-suit-a good cause, o
good lawyer, a good Judge, good wit
nesses. a good jury, good long purse,
and last but by no means least impor,
tant good luck.-N. Y. Ledger.
