READ THIS TWICE!

The only Protection that will effect
ually protect all people, all classes, all
labor and all interests is that styled
SELF PROTECTION acquired only from
truthful knowledge of ways and
means, legal and illegal, just and I'M
just, by which the burdens of govern
ment, profits of labor and industry, are
so unequally divided.
That knowledge is power, and ignor-
ance its slave, is forcibly illustrated
daily in all walks of life, among all
people, in all countries.
Where knowledge is used as a power
or a means for gaining wealth without
labor or an equivalent therefor, it be-
comes necessary to deceive or keep in
ignorance of such methods those from
whom the wealth is taken; hence it is
that of the ten thousand newspapers
printed in the United States, less than
ten are absolutely free and independent
of the power or control of some class,
party or monopoly whose interest it is
to keep the great mass of people in
ignorance of their methods.
The Cincinnati Weekly Enquirer is
one of the few, if not the only one,
absolutely free from such influences.
1t is the most honest, thorough, able
teacher and exponent of truthful
knowledge, of reliable data, free from
partisan bias, fair, frank and explicit
to such degree that one cannot but feel
edited and capable of forming correct
conclusions therefrom. Such paper
should be in every household. Sample
copies can be obtained by addressing

and l will send her there"
Luke had spent many happy hours in the
bygone years beneath the leafy bowers of
that summer house. He was on his way
toward it when the giant form OF Black
hawk suddenly rose up from some rose
bushes at the side of the path, and the negro
said:

Luke, hurrying on. He had known the ne
gro ever since he was a child, but had never
heard him mention a wife and baby before.
THAT black rascal has a heart after all, }" he
thought.
Reaching the bower, he sat upon the
rustic bench. The moon, with many flick
ering shadow, shone through the leafy COW
ering overhead, and Luke's mind recalled
the many thousand events which had trans
PRED since last he sat there, year ago.
A light footstep fell upon his ear There
was a whispering of soft robes, breath of
perfume, and she was at his side. No words
of the vows they had plighted year ago,
when Luke went off to seek his fortune,
were spoken. He rose silently, took her in
his arms, and they sat down together. He
was first to speak.
"Lillie, your father has told me all, and
am still an unknown waif. AS such can
you accept me~
"Yes-yes, Luke! have known you all
my life, and what need care about your
birth"
He clasped her more closely in his arms
and imprinted kiss on her lips. After a
moment he said:

For long time they sat there clasped in
each others arms, and what they said and
what they thought must be imagined.
The brother in the meanwhile had saddled
his horse, bid his invalid father adleu and
was already on his way to join company
of recruits for the Confederate army.

lass
This happy remark often occurs to us
when we see boys going to school with
shoes that have never once known the
brush, with hair uncombed faces not too
clean, ears unfit for inspection, hands very
| black, and a cap that has evidently known
hard service as a missile weapon. Such a
boy is more likely at least both to talk and
to act unbecomingly than one who is clean
and tidy. Something within the tidy boy
compels him to live up to his appearance.
The other boy is apt TO live down TO his
dirty boots.
Fixing upon boy an odiOus and belit-
thing nickname which lowers his self es-
TEEN has the same tendency. So does
ridiculing him for any natural defect, and
for the clumsiness which often results
from such a defect. The mistakes of youth
frequently result from shyness, aud this is
greatly aggravated by the jeers of eompan-
ions and still more by the impotence of
teacher.
Many a person now honored and es-
teemed in the world dates his progress up
ward from the moment when he received
from some honored lips word of encour-
agement or discovered by chance that be
was not inferior to his comrades, despite
appearances to the contrary.
We can hardly do more injurious act
than to make another think more meanly
of himself than he ought to think. HUI
mility is an excellent trait, but humility is
a very different thing from the mortifca-
ton and self abasement that sometimes re-
suit from sneers or misunderstanding Com

There is a family in a certain Long Island
suburb who are endeavoring to preserve n
calm philosophy over a rather startling oc-
currence. Friday night-the night Of the
sudden gale-the gentleman was aroused
from slumber by the persistent barking of
his dog. He got up and reconnoitered
from his window, saw nothing and heard
nothing suspicious, and telling his dog to
be quiet returned to bed and to sleep.
Before he slept, however, he replied to
his wife's question as to the time of night
with the remark that it was probably
about 1880, as the street lamps were very
low. The village it may be explained is
lighted with lamps whose wick and oil are
graduated TO burn a certain time, and then
go out without the expense of a human ex-
tinguisher a fact so well understood that
person Of any continued residence can
gauge the hour with considerable accuracy
from the condition OF the lights.
On arising the next morning the hus-
band was surprised to find his watch was
not gOing-it had stopped at precisely
twenty-six minutes after one He owns
two watches, silver and a gold one, and
he at once went to the gold one for the
time. That had stopped, too, at precisely
twenty-eight minutes past l. And then,
with an odd sensation, the man recalled
that the night before, in winding the two
watches, he had noticed that the gold one
was two minutes faster than the silver
one He decided be would not tell his
wife about this remarkable performance Of
his timepieces and continued his dressing.
She had preceded him below stairs, but be-
fore he was ready to leave his room she
called to him. He went to the laluster to-
hear her.
What time is it, please; the dining
room clock has stopped" she asked.
"At what hour2" he almost gasped.
'"rwenty-six minutes after / O'Clock, ri
was the reply. which sent an uncanny chill
over him.
That is all there Is TO it, however. Weeks
have gone by and that Long Island com
muter has not even missed his train; but,

Some Chicagoans have lately been con-
Quoting satisfactory experiments in hard
ening cast iron by new chemical process.
Briefly described, the mode of procedure is
as follows The iron is put in furnace
and heated to the proper temperature,
when the chemical is put on the upper side
and gees right through it. so that when
cool the under side is as hard as the upper
side, and when broken the iron is as hard
inside as outside.
No trouble is experienced in going
through six inches, and the chemical can
probably go through any reasonable thick
ness. In Chicago it is being used for hard
ening brick dies made of cast iron, where
~ heretofore brick dies we're necessarily
made of steel This is a great saving, both
in material and work. Another use is for
shoes on grips of cable cars.-New York

Deafness Oan,t be- cured

BY local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an infamed condition Of the mu-
cous lining OF the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets iuaamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing and when it is
entirely closed. Deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken out
aud this tube restored to its normal condI.
ton, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out often are caused by catafrh, which
is nothing but an nhamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
