Good Enough to Talk About.


A bashful young man happened
one evening at a party to be seated
next to a bright young lady, who at
once noticed the diffdence of her
''sterner" companion. After waiting
in vain for him to say something she
turned to him with the remark:
"This is lovely weather we are hav-
ing" Gt was raining and had been
for several days.. He, too practical
by far for society, replied tinaidly
that he did not think so. that the
rain and snow together were so dis
agreeable, and besides it was un-
healthy, etc. ooh, yesl'' she inter-
rupted, relieved that the ice was
broken, 81 know all that, but don't
you think it is good enough weather
to begin a conversation with?"-

An Anti-Slang sneietr.

There is an imperative need Of an anti
slang society. On our streets, and in
our homes, in places Of business in So
cial assemblies and even in our churches
are heard slangous expressions if not act

becoming too common among all class
and conditions of people. And especial
ly lamentable is the frequency and ease
with which slang phrases fall from the
lips of our young ladies' well! I'll be

still more astounding was the following
from one who was describing on School

to her companions: Wasn't it fun,

The last battle fought on the soil of
England was at Sedgmoor, July 0, 1885,

THE KELLEY CURE.

The fact that the New York writer
and eulogist of the system died after
he had been cured of the alcoholic dis
case is serving to give Dr.. KELLEY and
his processes a great nOtOriety, and in
vigorate the assaults of the orthodox
schools of medication upon what they
deem unprOfeSsional, unscientific and
perniciOuS, if not actual quackery. Yet
there Will be little really made out of
the case detrimental to the alleged cure.
1t has not been claimed that more than
% per cent Of the cures are permanent.
IT diStaste for alcoholics is created,
no doubt it can be removed by impru-
dent tampering. If the old flame is not
revived, new one may be kindled
That seems rational. Much more dam
aging than the New York fatality will
probably be the use of the name
OF the Chicago physician who has
brought the $4,000 suit. This
party. DR.. MAJOR, had some cor
respOndence with KELLEY and asked
various points about the cure. Soon
after the Chicago man was astOniShed
to find his name used in the advertising
literature of the KELLEY business in
such way as to lead to the impression
that he was one OF the reclaimed. As
he had been always rigid temperance
man, this ratified him, and he wants to
be placated with $4,000 out of the great
profits of the business. 1t was certainly
grave blunder to use his name, even If
there was no Illegitimate intention.
KELLEY had better compromise the suit.
But even the MINES fatality is made
to do service in one point. 1t shows
that in case Of relapse there is NO
lingering, annoying stage to follow.
One big drunk will put the victim in the
gutter and grave. Still, this will hardly
have a place in the cure literature. The
thing, however. has a start for big
run. and it should have full showing

WHAT IT MAY Do.

One of the most interesting problems
in the evolution of the electric potency
is in relation to its effect upon plant
life. Experiments are as yet INSULT
cient to indicate the probable results,
but they have advanced far enough TO
afford some suggestion. In this coun-
try experiments with electricity and
demonstrations of its possibilities have
been pretty much confined TO mechan-
zeal uses. Little has been attempted in
the more occult phases. But in France.
Russia and Finland the eXperimenters
seem to have found that its influence
upon plant growth is more than a
theory. A Russian scientist has
applied the electric current to seeds and
the growth of vegetables. 1t was ap-
piled both in and above ground, and the
vegetables grown surpassed even the
great productions of this state and the
Dakotas. For instance, radish was
produced five inches in diameter and
seventeen in length. That seems to be
several times the size of the largest in
that country by ordinary growth. A
tract of wheat in Finland that had the
current passing through the soil
upon wires yielded one-half more
than an adjoining field not so
treated. There is difference of state
ment as to the effect of the light upon
plant life. In one case continued ex-

THE WHEAT SUPPLY-

The price of wheat has not shown the
aspiring disposition that was expected
in view of the shortage in Europe. The
unlooked-fOr proportions of the produc-
ton as the harvest advanced may have
had some effect. The wheat in sight on
both sides of the Atlantic and in transit
exceeds S3,000,0OO bushels, or third
more than the average of the visible In
former years. The largeness of this
amount may have an effect on the mar
kets, but it is by no means an indica-
ton that the supply IS to be adequate to
the demands of the world. The fact of
the shortage and the certainty of the
eventual demand have accelerated the
movement of the crop to the market CEN
tiers of Western Europe. 1t is impossi-
bic to measure with accuracy the
amount of the reserves, but in this
country the greater part of the crop by
far is still in the hands of the producers.
The prices later on will be controlled by
the extent of the reserves. The farmers
of the United States no doubt have on
hand more wheat than ever before at
this season, but there is hardly a ques-
ton that it will be found less than the
deficit in the old world supply, and con-
sequentlY the market must advance be-
fore another crop.

TALKS TOO MUCH

Secretary BEN BUTTERwORTH, of the
worlds fair, has talked with some i'm
prudence of apparent expression about
his impressions of certain things in
Italy, on his recent visit in the interest
of the fair. He may have a habit of in
cOnsiderate or uncertain speech. When
he was in congress he said some things
about the MCKINLEY bill that were con-
strued as unfriendly, yet on the vote he
was recorded for it. His observations
in Germany, however. are perhaps the
most surprising to those who have al
lowed their minds to brood over the
hardships of the pauper labor of Eu-
rope. 1t is always conceded that Ger
many, a protective country, has far less
prosperous industrial classes than free
trade England. Wages are lower and
life severer. Yet Mr.. BUTTERwoRTH
says. as his observation, that "there are
more loafers in one American city than
in all the German cities" The gentle
man is evidently disqualifying himself
for making Republican speeches. He
should have seen the streets of the old
world cities thronged with gaunt men
and wan women lowering along the bor-
ders of starvation, and casting longing
eyes over the western waters to the
land where labor luxuriateS inits mu-

posure to light was pronounced detri-
mental, and, in another case, a gardener
insisted that he could raise earlier vege-
tables in the light of the electric street
lamps. From what has been learned of
the power and influence of the strange
force, it is not difficult to believe that it
has greater results in store. If vege-
table growth can be promoted
by electricity, processes for pro-
ducing it cheaply will be devised,
and it may be utilized upon
every farm not only for lighting
and perhaps heating purposes, but to
hasten and increase the growth of crops.
1t is slow and dubious process to grow
trees In some of the prairie regions. 1t
may be that electricity will come as the
solvent of the difficulty. Trees may be
given so rapid progress as to weather
the climatic obstacles, and the tedious
waiting for them to become mature or
fruitful will be obviated. Then, as a
motive force, it may do the blowing and
hauling for the farmer. 1t has gone
beyond the Imagination so far, and its
development is still in its infancy.
