A PECULIAR RELIGIOUS ORGAN.

long account Of the habits, customs.

taking root In the United States and
Canada. 1t IA n mOnaslio order, and,
its memhors are usually known az
rsappist Monks. II is an ol,shoot OF
tho 18th and 18th centuries, which la
those times spread over Europe.
About II years ago the rrappists got
Into some political difficulty with tho
French government, and number OF
them were compelled to leave
France. Six members settled near
Montreal, Canada, on claim
OF 1000 acres Of heavily tlmbered land.
They went TO work clearing, bullding
and planting, aud now the community

$4,000 monastery. They have 100
milch cows aud turn out large qusnii-
ties Of butter. Next year they will
establish n branch house near Quebec,
the Government having presented the
order with 6O00 acres Of tlmbered land.
But 1t Is their peculiar discipline

"PAYMAsTER RODNEY, U. :. Navy"
Is reyiving his theory regarding an
amendment TO the Consultation Of the
United Statee, providing for an inil.
yldual property Limitation. He Is re-.
newing the Issuance Of circulars, which
ilnt appeared In 1879. He holds that
tho result OF the concen trntion Of great
wealth among the few In this nation
will inevitably lead to revolution. He
holds that II the trainers OF the Consti.

Here Is the proposed amendment.
"No oitlzen nor resident nor Investor,

be permitted to possess. in all kind, OF
property, an aggregate value OF more
than one million OF dollars; which sum
shall DO tho limit Of private property In
any individual, jolni-indiyidual, guardl-

and Wherever such private ownership or
holding shall be found to exceed tho
limit above named, the excess shall all b0

THE SrREAD,Ol OF INFORMATION.

THE name Of Izaak Walton Ia al
most as familiar to the reading public
as that Of Shakespeare. 10 the angling
fraternity he Is like patron saint.
Though he died over two centuries ago
there are some people, reading folks
100, who have an Idea that he ~ still
living, and on seeing a now edition OF
his complete Angler" have written
to the publisher addressing him as
LEAK Walton, Esq. This IL quite as bad
~ the story Of Democrats stll voting
for Jackson or Jefferson, and Repub.
llcaus for Abraham Lincoln.
Many Jocular remarks are made by
the press over such displays OF igno.
rance, but we do not think It l. much
worse than tho comments OF many
editors ON the presence Of polygamy In
Utah, on the Spauldlng origin Of the
Book OF Mormon, and ON many points
connected with the "Mormon" faith
aud people which have long ago been
settled, in away that ought to preclude
any such remarks ~ those that arc com
mon In leading public Journals.
II unsophislica,ed country people
are to be blamed or ridiculed Tor their
lack Of Information about tho persons

WILL ANYTHING RE DoSEi

TnE people Of this city have been
confidently expecting some special and
determined effort 10 rid the city Of the
dosperadoes who render It unsafe to
walk the streets at night. But the
footpads and robbers still have things
about their own way. Day after day
the papers report "holi.ups" and bur.
glariea, and there are no arrests. When
viii something practical he done for
the protection OF the lives aud property
Of cilizcns2
When the reorganization Of the po.
lice force took place aud the Mayor
made his pretty and placalory speech
10 the officers aud patrolmeD, 1t was
hoped that something dodnite would
be done to rid the city Of the thugs and
Migrants that infcst II. But the
same complaints arise as be-
fore, aud II seems as though
II will be necessary for the
people to take hold Of the matter, or.
ganizo and proceed 10 do some ana
teur detective and constable work on
their own account.
We do not want to. see this move
ment made, II the police and county
and federal officers will unite aud
crush out the evil. The police force
alone may not DO able to accomplish
what Is necessary, but there IL no good
reason why all the lawful peace officers
should not combine and make a raid
ON tho vags and roughs, and by CON
ccrted action secure safety to the public.
Something needs to DO done and that
QUICKLY.

Keep the Nails In Trim.

The base of the nails presents a not
less important field for the exercise Of
care and attention than the tips. No
nail can be a handsome one which is
overgrown and snothered at the lower
portion by a clinging mass of skin, often
dry, split and ragged from neglect. If
this condition has been allowed to con-
tinue from childhood the adult person
who has come to feel something of pride
in his personal appearance will confront
quite task in the attempt to correct
the evil; but there is nothing of this
sort impossible to the persistent, careful
worker.
The skin should be patiently pressed
back, by degrees, till the beauty of the
well proportional nail, with its charm
ing, pearly white crescent at the base,
stands out as an adequate reward for all
the effort. If a manicure set be not at
hand, gentle pressure from the thumb
nail of the opposite hand makes very
acceptable substitute, the field of opera
tons being kept in good condition by
frequent bathing and rubbing, especial
pains being taken to remove ''hang
nails" or any fragments of dry skin ad-
herring to the nails themselves. Good
Housekeeping.

An exchange makes light Of the idea
that there may be danger in the tubes
of the monograph. 1t holds that there
is no danger in the BARRIERS chair or the
wash room or door handles, etc. The
same shaving utensils are used for diff
ferent men, the same towels, and all
sorts of people handle the same door
knobs and no harm is done. How did
the exchange learn that, through these
and other means Of connection, disease
was never conveyed?
Did the exchange never hear of the
BARRIERS itch? Do not unaccountable
sores appear upon men of pure blood
and correct habits? How are cholera
and smallpox and yellow fever and skin
diseases conveyed? In the case of the
monograph there is no danger so long
as the instrument is a private one, as
there is none where ones own shaving
utensils and towels only are used. But
the public photograph which is operated
by the nickel-in-the-slot process is a diff
ferent matter. The two prongs are not
only handled, but thrust into the ears as
close to the drnm as possible, and put
into many pairs of ears daily. There
may be no danger from the prongs, but
it is well enough to wipe them thorough
ly with your handkerchief before put
ting them into your ears to hear Gill

Gen. Sheridan was not tall man,
though he had a commanding presence.
While he was an under officer he was
one day drilling a company, and was

Of a tall, round shouldered Irish recruit.

finally exclaimed, "You look like Il

Then the officer gave the man a su-

terably away from earthly things.
''An' its straight ahid III be afther

glancing down at his superior officer,
with twinkle in his eye.
Yes; if you mean to be a respectable

Excessive ugliness In soldiers.

Ugliness as a disqualifying cause seems
Ineligible in candidate for matrimony,
but is certainly less so when the question
is one Of fitness for military service.
This, however, is one ON the list of dis
qualifications laid down by the head of
the medical department in a manual just
issued on Transcription in France" Lat
terry the French authorities seem to be
much more liberal in admitting the
claims of men who do not wish to serve.
The reflections are ) per cent. more nu-
merous than at the previous conscrip-
ton. The French are looking more to
the quality of their army than to the
number of recruits Excessive ugliness,
says this military doctor, makes a man
ridiculous, prevents him from having
authority over his comrades, and leaves
him morbid ana sensitive. If the ugli-
ness be adequate the claim must be al
lowed. male hysteria" isanother valid
plea. The army doctors say it exists
among French conscripts, and it is the
more Objectionable as it is contagious

The particles of matter producing
shooting stars may be astonishingly mi
mute. In Il recent investigation Mr..
c, G. Hutchins has found that on the
suppositlon that the rays of a me-
teor have the same ratio of visible to to-
tai energy as those of the standard can
die the mass of meteor at distance Of
fifty miles, having magnitude equal to
Vega and a velocity Of twenty-five miles
a second, would be about four and one
half grains if it continued two seconds.
y lump Of the Emmett county, Ia, iron
meteorite burned in an electric current
gave ten times the light of the candle;
hence the mass of a meteor giving the
light Of a first magnitude star moving
with parabolic velocity, and lasting two
seconds, is less than half grain.-Ar-

Can Read Hi. bible in the Dark.

When Henry G., Stevens, of Bridge
port, Conn, sits down to read his Bible
a person watching him might think he
had pile of thin cedar boards in his
lap, and as he turns leaf after leaf they
crackle and fall with thud. Another
remarkable thing about Mr.. Stevens
reading his Bible is that he needs no
light to search the Scriptures with, and
it is not necessary for him to look at the
book. He has the biggest, heaviest and
queerest Bible in Connecticut. He is a
deaf and blind soldier of the rebellion.
His wonderful Bible was presented to
him by the American Bible society, and
it cost s2S to produce the book for him.
1t is in eight volumes, with embossed
print, and he reads it by touch, feeling
the letters; yet he is apt and quick at
that kind of perusal The whole eight
volumes are puite aiift for man OF or
binary strength. Each volume is 155
inches long, II inches wide and about Q
inches thick. Pile the volumes one on
another and the aggregate thickness of
the stack is 8 feet and inches Alto
gether there are $40 leaves in the Bible,
on each one Of which is full page of
raised letters. Mr.. Stevens is 81 years
old, and began to study raised letter
reading less than three years ago. He
is now ready reader. Cor. New York

The value Of pepper in cooking seems
to have been known long ago Its use
as medicine was common in the days
of Hippocrates, who applied it, moist
ened with alcohol, to the skin of his pa
tients. Just as sugar and tea have been
in past times so dear as only to be within
the reach of the wealthy, SO pepper was
in the Middle Ages a very costly condi-
ment. SO much was it valued that a
small packet was at that time deemed a
suitable present to offer a great person.
Common or black pepper is now grown
in many tropical countries, 1t is a
climbing plant some twelve feet high,
bearing fruit of a bright red color the
size of pea, which, when dried, turns
black. -Exchange

"Bless your some one says on hearing
a companion sneeze. BLESS you'll" was
just the exclamation made for the same
reason in other tongues by several ma
tions hundreds of years ago. More than
one ancient Greek writer speaks of this
custom, but cannot say certainly whence
it came. The man who sneezed when
Offering sacrifice was thought fortunate
and sure to obtain his object. We all
know how sneezing may be caused. But
it is curious to notice that some people
sneeze on coming into the sunshine. 1t
is well to remember that repeated or
violent sneezing has its dangers. So the
unseasoned must beware of snuf!-Ex-

Surface Traffic in Zig Cities.

Trustworthy figures, recently com
piled, show the mileage of street car
track in the United States and Canada
to be nearly 5000 Horse railways oc-
cupy 5,902. electric railways / 1913. dunn
my lines $50 and cable lines AL. The
number Of electric roads now in opera
ton is 264 against Al cableroads. Some
idea Of the enormous proportions to
which the street railroad traffic has at
tanned can be gained from the fact that
in one city, St. Louis, the whole popula-
ton is carried il0 times a year by the
street cars, and in the state Of New York
the statistics Of the surface railways for
the year ending September. 1888. show
that the whole population of the state
was carried nearly sixty times. If to
