Channcy NJ. DePew says that farmers
are e~xtravagant. Why? He says: but
in thosefar western states many OF them
come to town in spring wagons.
Chauncy rides in palace cars, IL whole
car to himself, and the people who
should according to him, ride in INN Der
wagons, pay for his cars. If Chauncy
could speak to you to day he would say,
vote for Jolley. If you can't go Jolley,
vote for Woods. But by all that's great
don't vote for thai poor Farmer Smith.

LAND AND LOAN PLAN.
The new book OF lecturer Scott on the
subject OF the Sub-Treasury Plan as in
dorsed in the platform OF the Peoples
Party, at Cincinnati, is a complete and
wonderfully clear and comprehensive
statement and argument. 1t Is certain
to become THE standard work on that
subject. Henceforth no speaker or edi-
tor can afford to discuss this question
without first giving this book a careful
perusal. Brother Scott is the best quail
flied man in the state to present this
subject. He has studied it in all it's
phases, and he writes honestly, calmly,
graphically and convincingly.
1t is book for the philosopher. 1t is
u book that every one should read. No
one can afford not to read it.
The fact that as It's pages went to
press they passed under the eagle eye Of
j. G. Hubbard, adds immensely to it's
value and will place it's utter reliability,
ais to facts and figures, absolutely be-
You'd q question. It is the most yalu-
able book Of the decade.

ELECTRIC SPARKS.

Electricity moves at the rate of 2ssO
miles a second.
An ingenious method of applying drugs
hypodermically to the human body in
which electricity is brought to bear is re-
ceiving considerable attention.
In one of the new electric "plows" lately
brought out, the snow is not hurled out of
the way by the swiftly revolving brooms,
but is cut into by shovels which deposit it
neatly beside the track.
1t has been determined that as far ne the
danger to ships compasses from magnetic
leakage from the dynamo is concerned, it
is equally the same whether the ship is
double or single wired
1t was recently suggested that electrical
nightschools be established in various cities
for the benefit of those who desired to be-
come familiar with electrical subjects, but
who were fully occupied during the day.
From 100000 to 10000, 900 incandescen,
lamps will be made in the United States
during 1891, taking about les, 900 ounces of
platinum. AT current rates, that means
at least 100000 for platinum, the price
now being $40 per ounce.
William G. b. Holmes. one of the lead
ers in cable construction in the west, has
secured II franchise for the whole Memphis
street railway service with electric power,

Overhead wires will be used.
The latest theatrical invention is an

SENATOR BLAIR RETIRED.

The Senate ard House met in joint
convention Thursday last week, al
Concord, New Hampshire, and de
clared Jacob II. Gallinger elected
United States Senator for the full
term of six years from March, 1891.
This retires Henry w. Blair, the au-
thor of the Blair Educational Bill.
DR.. Gallinger is better known as a
politician than physician. He was
in the New Hampshire Legislature OF
1873, the Constitutional Convention
of 1876, and became State Senator
in 1873. He was Chairman of the
Republican State Committee in 1882,
and entered Congress in 1884, was re-
elected in 1886, and declined a third
nomination. He was aiming at a
higher mark, which he has at last hit.
He was born of German parents, in
Canada, in 1887, therefore never can
be President learned the trade of
a printer, and drifted into "the States
when a young man.

Partial returns Of the recent vote in
reference to the admission of women
to the General conference of the
Methodist Episcopal Church have
been received from S27 different dist
riots of the United States, and the fig
ures show decided victory for the
women. When the remaining 15S
districts shallhave reported the women
will probably have 10000 majority.
The returns reportedup to date show a
total vote of 291577. OF these 1885,
ST are in favor of admission, and
1000 against women delegates.
This gives the women 1851 majority.
There are many districts yet to be
heard from which will, no doubt, in
crease the majority in favor. The
vote in the Wyoming Conference
stands as follows: for, 2,S4s; against,
3,I4I. Thus it will be seen that the
Wyoming Conference goes against the
measure by EOS majority. The Hon
esdale district and the Owego district
80 in favor.

SENATOR HILL.

David b Hill who is serving his
third term as Governor of New York
was elected to the United States
Senate on Thursday of last week by
the unanimous vote of the democrats.
His term of office begins with March
4th, 1891, but it is probable no work
will be expected of him before Decem
Der, and he will therefore be enabled
to serve as Governor of New York un-
til he is called upon for actual service
in the United States. He was elected
by majority Of two on joint ballot.
When the news was spread Of his
election, congratulatory kilograms
poured in upon the Governor from

Childish Faith

An example of childish faith, of a kind
dull age wears away, was seen the
other day. A little boy was sitting in
the yard of an old country homestead: /:
on either side of him sat huge dog, pa
tient and loving. The sun shone down
scorchingly on the trio, and it's rays were
uncomfortable. Shading his eyes with
his curved hand the child looked sky
ward and said, "Put in that sun, please. -
The sun shone brightly, and the little
fellow repeated softly, "Please put In
that sun, man up in the sky; it hurts my
head"
just then over the face of the blazing
orb there sailed white summer cloud,
then another, and the yellow blaze
turned suddenly to hazy, restful gray.
Turning to the dogs, the little boy, put
ting an arm around the neck of each,
said: "Did you see the sun pulled in,
Romeo and Chieftain? When you wants
anything, if youis good, and you asks God
for it, he gives it to you. The sun hurt
my head, and asked him to put it in,
and don't you see how he did reach out
and put it in for mer' The dogs looked
wise, leaned their heads lovingly toward

Before Learning q Language.

Some students begin a language for
the mere love of knowing foreign
tongues; others acquire them either for
professional purposes or with the aim of
gaining access to foreign literatures.
But whatever be the motive it is well tn
set out with some knowledge of the
science of language-some insight into
the relations of languages to each other
some grasp of the theories of modern
scholars about the origin and develop
ment of speech. To learn language
without knowing anything of the science
Of language is like acquiring the art of
putting up electric fixtures without any
knowledge of the principles of electrical
science.
To approach it, on the other hand,
from the standpoint of universal prin-
ciples is to make the study of 1t easier
and progress in any particular tongue
much more rapid. By knowing, for e1-
ample, the laws Of consonantal inter-
change, we may often discover the
meaning of words without being obliged
to refer for them to the dictionary. In
this way every new language learned
makes more easy the requirement of
other tongues of the same or of allied
stocks.-Boston Herald.

Unsafe Money to Carry.

My father was once with his ship at
Rangoon. One day during a heavy
thunderstorm he was driving in cab to
his agents, when he saw t'coolie"
(porter) drop down in the street. He got
out Of the cab at once and went to the
man, but he was dead. There was a
burned patch in his waistcloth, on the
right side, and some blackened copper
'pice" lay on the ground. The man had
just received them for carrying load,
and, as the clothes Of the poorer natives
of India and Burmah have no pockets,
he had twisted them into his waistcloth,
and this money must have attracted the
lightning. But the most curious part of
1t was that the queens head on one Of
the coins was clearly impressed on his
side, and even the words Queen Vic
toria" were clearly defined. d.-London Tit

Why Eyes Are Light and Dark.

An interesting point is the cause OF
the different shades of color we see in
the eyes. On certain membrane In the
interior are numerous cells, called "pig.
ment" cells. When these are present in
very great numbers they produce that
deep black color Of some eyes, and in
proportion to their numbers decrease
also the depth of color, till finally light
blue is reached. In certain eyes these
pigment cells do not exist at all, being
wanting, indeed, all through the system,
hair and skin. A person of this descrip-
ton is called an albino, and among ami
mails we find parallel in the case OF
the white rabbit.-C Chambers Journal.

Why Girls Are Tall.

Why are there SO many tall girls now
adays, and why is the tendency of the new
generation toward unusual height and
gracious slimness? Women are tall and
becoming tall simply because it is the
fAahion, and that statement never needs
NOR iscapable of any explanation. Awhile
ago it was the fashion to be petite and
arch; it Is now the fashion to be tall and
gracious, and nothing more can be said
about it. Of course the reader, who is
usually inclined to find the facetious side
OF amy grave topic, has already thought
OF the application Of the self denying
hymn, that man wants little here below,
and wants that little long; but this may
be only a passing Sigh of the period

Weekly,
