FOOL FRIENDS OF THE FARMER.

The demand for free silver and the
ultimatum for Government loans and
crop subsidies have spread panic among
the banks and forced a new condition to
all time loans that the debt shall be paid
in gold. Agitation has made money
very tight, and the extravagant demands
of the Alliance leaders have defeated the
very object for which the people are
working-viz. A more plentiful and
more elastic currency. The Ocala sched-
ule has by its overreaching demands
brought about tight and ironclad
money market. The farmers are begin
ming to feel the evil effects of what their
own ill-advised leaders have accomplish
ed. They have demoralized business,
routed confidence and made things worse
than ever. Even the assurance of the
President that he proposes to keep money
at par will not put matters permanently
to rights if this ill-ordered agitation goes
on. The farmers and the people of the
people of the South will never secure re-
lief on the lines laid down at Ocala, or
under the auspices of men who are
prancing about on the stump calling for
"the sub-treasury or something better"
augusta Chronicle.
These sober sentiments emanating
from an influential Democratic paper
published in the heart of the great South,
are reassuring, and stimulate the convic-
ton that the free silver craze will spend
itself before the presidential canvass be-
gins. Farmers are already learning, it
appears, that permanent prosperity, or
substantial relief, cannot be obtained
through the agency of hair-brained agi-
tators. A more senseless and shameless
proposition than the sub-treasury scheme
would be difficult of conception. 1t
would be stupendous imposition upon
the American people, and demoralizing
to the last degree. Such a device could
only have been generated in the soil of
fanaticism or the rankest demagogery.
For the Government to put up store
houses and advance money on crops so
housed would be to invite bankruptcy
and financial chaos. Wretched as is the
free silver schemes it is decidedly prefer
able to the sub-treasury folly. Neither
would benefit the farmer. Any such
supposition is ridiculous, and it will not
take the hard-headed and horny-handed
aTricu1turiSts very lonp to reach this sem
sible conclusion. The whole subsidy
system is at variance with sound govern
mental policy.
The farmers, particularly of the South
and West, will do well to beware of their
fool friends. In this State the farmers
do no. expect that Uncle Sam is going to
make them rich. They have too much
sense.-Troy Press (Dem.).

SUMNER HOTEL LIFE.

1t strikes one oddly to fee a school
teacher, but the plucky girls who wait on
the tables in the North Conway hotels
pocket their tips with bright looks and
smiles that suggests extra gloves and
winter hats to the most unobserving eye.
They are all young and pretty, carrying
themselves with little air of self respect
very taking. They rattle off the menu
with a rapidity that suggests recitation,
and bring the order with surprising &C
curacy. Some assume little air of deep
experience, and say, 81 know just about
whatyou want" when one attempts to
give an order. They have favOrites, of
course, generally among the older ladies,
for whom choice bits are instantly forth
coming. At one table were two Smith
college seniors who were themselves to
teach next year, and the speculative man
ner with which they handed glasses of
milk and the enormous way they sugared
berries told it's own story. There were
teachers from Boston at one table,
naughty creatures who spent money in
vacation instead of earning it, They
were amply hateful to their table girl.
She resented it to the extent of overdone
meat and few vegetables and said indig-
nantly to companion: 81 teach high
er grade than they do, anyhow" They
have grand frolic and straw ride the
last night, and go off in body, with a
healthy coat of tan on their faces nice
little roll of dollars in their pockets.

A SINGULAR CONCESSION.

The last number of the Christian
Union contains an account of singular
concession which has just been made by
Father Conry, in charge of a Roman
Catholic parochial school at Faribault,
Minnesota. The step taken is nothing
less than the transfer of the parochial
school to the City Board of Education.
The transaction is quite different from
that exemplified in Poughkeepsie and in
one or two Pennsylvania towns, where
an arrangement was made involving the
retention of Roman Catholic teachers
and the use of certain hours of the day
for the purpose of religious instruction
according to the tenets of the Roman
Catholic church. The writer of the art
lcle in the Christian Union, Mr.. Albert
Shaw, describes the transfer at Faribault
as free from any conditions of this kind.
There are no stipulations as to the en-
ployment of Roman Catholic teachers,
and it is expressly understood that the
children hitherto in attendance on the
paIochial school are to be scattered
among the public schools wherever their
places of residence would place them.
The priest retains the ownership of the
building used by the parochial school,
but it is to be at the disposition of the
Board of Education for any purposes
they may desire. The reason for Father
Conry's action, as stated by himself in
writing, is that the children at present
enrolled in the schools of the lmmacu-
late Conception parish may receive the
benefits that result from an American
training in all that the term implies"
Another object to be effected by the
transfer is the enabling the city to re-
ceive from the State larger share of the
per capita tax for the support vi educa-
ton than can be had when a Considerable
portion of the children are withdrawn
into private or parochial schools.
There is no precedent, we believe, for
such a step as this, which seems to in
volve the surrcnS7rOf the very principles
on which the par0chial school movement
is founded. But it is very encouraging
sign to have such disinterested testimony
given to the superior excellence of the
public school, and such frank preference
expressed for Distinctly American training
1t seems unlikely that the Faribault
priest can have taken so Important step
without the approval of Archbishop Ire
land; he has 6uo recently been tiansferr-
ed to Faribault from st. Paul. DR.. Shaw
writes quite positively upon this point:
There can be no doubt whatever that
this step has been taken with the sanction
of Archbishop Ireland. That wise and
patriotic prelate has an utter abhorance
of the foreignizing tendencies of the
German, French, Polish and Bohemian
parish schools that are so numerous in
Wisconsin and other Western States.
He is in almost complete sympathy with
the public school system as it stands,
is earnestly DESTROYS to secure, upon what
would seem to him fair and honorable
basis, merging of the parochial into
the public system. He must, therefore,
be considered as authorizing the Fari-
bault experiment. "-Boston Journal.

The Best Advertising.

The most efficient advertising in behalf
of Hoods Sarsaparilla is that which
comes from the medicine itself That is
those who are cured by it, speak to
friends suffering similarly, who in turn
derive benefit and urge others to try
this successful medicine. Thus the cir
Gle of its popularity is rapidly widening
from this cause alone, and more and
more are becoming enthusiastic in be-
half of Hoods Sarsaparille as it actually
demonstrates its absolute merit. All
that is asked for Hoods Sarsaparilla is
that it be given fair trial. If you need
a good blood purifier, or building up
medicine, try Hoods Sarsaparilla.

TWO KINDS OF ENGLISH

There is quite difference between the
English and American speech, though
we are not aware Of il to any extent I'M
til our attention is called to it. The
nomenclature Of business is apt to mix
an American up, and in some instances
is quite annoying. l have prepared the
following table, giving some Of the more
important words and their uses in both
countries:
ENGLISH. AMERICAN.
Wire. Telegram,
Booking office. Ticket office,
Booking, Buying ticket.
Railway, Railroad
Permanent way, Railroad track
Metals, Rails,
Station, Depot,
Points. Switch,
Tram car Street car.
Goods train Freight train.
Carriages, Cars,
Guard, Conductor,
Driver Engineer,
Stoker. Fireman,
Engine Locomotive,
Luggage, Baggage,
Seats, please, All aboard,
Light, Matches,
Ale, Beer,
Drilling cars. Switching cars,
Trains crossing, Trains meeting,
Goods van, Freight cars,
Pit, Parquet.
There are hundreds of other words
which at first are confusing. In money
we have the sovereign, which is also a
quid, and in Yorkshire sometimes called
thick 'un." A shilling is a bob; a
sixpence, tanner; ten-shilling gold
piece is half quid and "thin 'un" !;
The half-crown is known as two-and-six,
sometimes two and tanner. The values
of English money are very deluding to
Americans. Two shillings for an article
doesn't sound expensive, but it is four
shillings of American money, and the
article looked at from that point may be
expensive.

The Lesser Bear is not so important as
his elder brother as regards size, but he is
very useful to astronomers. He resembles
the Great Bear in appearance, but is small

Polar star which is in the tip of the Lesser

The Position of the French Accent.

The settlement Of a purely pathological
question Chat, namely, as TO the position
Of the French accent) by a physical method
has been recently attempted by DR.. Prigs.
helm, of Berlin. According to Nature, the
instrument used was Konig's and Scott's
phonautograph, into which q number Of
Frenchmen were required to speak, the
measurement of the record being after
ward made by means Of tuning fork
curve running parallel with it. This in
strument renders possible a determination
of the duration, pitch and intensity Of each
syllable. and DIR. Prigsheim discusses its
indications. AS a preliminary result, he
finds that two syllable words have the VOW
els pronounced with equal length and
strength. Noteworthy differences appear
in the curve Of a word according as it oc-
ours in the middle or at the end Of a sen
tence. In the latter case there is added to
the Characteristic word curve a terminal
curve with declining pitch and strength,
which Is nearly the same for different
words, and corresponds TO the sinking Of
the voice before a pause. The vowels and
consonants show characteristic curves; and
notably long wave lengths occur with n, |,
b and d. The duration of syllables varies
between OF and 0.5 second; and between
the syllables of word there are often
pauscs of 03 to OF second. The shortest
syllable, In etc, with rather slow pronun-
citation, consisted Of twenty two vibrations,
yet the ear Is capable Of not only hearing
the tone, but Of detecting fine shades and
differences in the mode Of pronunciation
Further experiments in this direction, with
an improved apparatus, are contemplated.
