The Doctors Patients.

N. Y. Recorder: DO all your patients
close their eyes, doctor?n asked a woman
as she settled herself in dentists chail
and dropped her eyelids, preparatory tc
having her teeth filled.
ssNot all Of them, but wish they would
1t makes me nervous when they keep them
open. You know the work is SO delicate
and minute that get very intent upon il
and hardly remember that am operating
on human beiug until suddenly nv gaze
meets somebody's eyes close to me and
fixed upon me. 1t distracts my attention
and upsets my work for moment.
But never ask patients to close theil
eyes if they don't do it of their own yoli-
ton. I had one experience of that kind
and one is enough. I had young lady
for patient who never closed her ewes,
but continually fixed her gaze upon me.
So asked her one day to keep her eyes
closed. l wasn't more than two days later
that heard q marvellous tale about my
self.
"The young woman had told some
friends that said her eyes were so beauti-
full and so distracting that really couldn' It
fix my mind upon my work unless she
would consent to keep them shut. MY
wife heard the same story, too, and for
several weeks afterward our relations were
somewhat strained. So now | never say
anything to patient unless it's man."

ORIGIN OF THE GREENBACK.
LincOln's Letter Acknowledging Col.
TayIOr's Invaluable Suggestion.

One Of Americas most notable charac-
ters, Col. Edmond Dick Taylor, the man
to whom President Lincoln gave the credit
of originating the greenback currency idea
was buried in Chicago few days ago. Col
Taylor's death has brought to light many
Important facts heretofore unpublished or
little known. He it was who induced Lin
coin to leave the country store at Salem
and go to Springfield and stndy law. Dur
ing the civil war, at a time when the gov
ernment's credit with Europe was ex-
hausted and the soldiers were crying for
money, and the treasury was empty, Lin
coin sent for Col. Taylor. When the
scheme evolved by them became pro-
nounced success, Lincoln wrote Col. Tay-
lor the following letter
My dear Col. Dick: l have long deter
mined to make public the origin of the
greenback, and tell the world that it is of
Dick Taylor's creation. You had
always been friendly to me, and
when troublous times fell on us,
and my shoulders, though broad and
willing, were weak, and myself surrounded
by such circumstances and such people
that knew not whom to trust; then
said in my extremity, will send for Col.
Taylor; he will know what to do. x You
came, and said to you: "What can we
do?" You said: "Why, issue Treasury
notes bearing no interest, printed on the
best banking paper. Issue enough to pay
off the army expenses and declare it legal
tender.'' Chase thought it a hazardous
thing, but we finally accomplished it, and
gave to the people Of this republic the
greatest blessing they ever had-their own
paper to pay their own debts. It is due to
you, the father Of the present greenback,
that the people should know it, and take
great pleasure in making it known. How
many times have laughed at you telling
me plainly that | was too lazy to be any
thing but a lawyer. Yours truly,
A. LINCOLN.

as well as of Lincoln and carried many dis

THE New York Tribune says: "The
warmest advocates Of the Chinese exclu-
sion law are the Chinese themselves who
are in this country. Nothing, in fact,
would please them less than to have the
present exclusion law abrogated." It
would be well to keep them out Of the
country altogether. Look at the difference
between the cost Of maintaining paupers
in King county and Pierce county. One is
afflicted with the Chinese curse, the other
is not. The Chinese hurt white labor.
They are race of smugglers and law
breakers and send all their money out OF
the country.

YOUNG VANNAlIS.

1t is not worth while to say much about
the old ones. Perhaps the best that can
be done with them is to put them
IN prison, for it is hard to teach
an old dog new tricks, especially bet
ter ones. But to the young yandals of
Olympia word: Do you think it adds to
your good name among decent people to
deface signs, break windows in vacant
houses, scrawl filthy phrases or indecent
pictures on bill boards, barns and fences
Disgusting as is such things in the eyes of
respectable people, you are hurting your
selves worse than anyone else. No boy
known to be guilty of such indecencies and
known to have passion to destroy andsde-
face property, would be the boy any one
would want to give place to as cash boy
In store or as errand boy in bank or Of
fee? Such boys need not apply for any re-
spectacle work to respectable people. Sup
pose you had your way and all the win
dows in town were broken, all the
signs defaced, all the painted houses
were smeared with mud and everything
that hada semblance Of beauty was trans
formed into hideous ugliness. Do you
think yon would ever like to live in
such placer Suppose every one did as
you do we would have nothing pretty or
clean in town; everything would be like it
is in Siwash village. Do you wish to be
considered as Slwashes2 You are worse
than Siwashes, for the Indians make their
towns as pretty and decent as they know
how, while you makeyou town still uglier
and more indecent than it is. A boy who
indulges his passion to destroy prop
erty and gives way to his passion to
make anything less beautiful or
clean, is nursing a spirit Of evil in his
breast that will make him dispised mem
ber of society and will prepare him for the
penitentiary. Parents and teachers, and in
fact all citizens who have an interest in the
kind of civilization which shall grace Or
curse these shores twenty years hence
should see TO it that the boys Of today are
enamored of decency and things beautiful
and decent They should be so trained at
home, on the street in public school and
in Sunday school that they will feel that it
is crime to wantonly destroy property,
or make anything less beautiful and clean
anywhere along our streets or alleys. Let
them be inspired with love Of the beauti-
ful and clean SO that they shall take pleas
ure in protecting and promoting it, TITS
more important than for them to learn by
rote the multiplication table or the Dec
