Tyranny has bounds that It
cannot pass, Sooner provoke
the lightninp's flash, the crash
Of the thunder and the earth

There used to be fourteen
companies producing steel rails.
Now there are only SIX, and
these six work under an agree
ment by which the output is
divided aud the price is fixed,
so that there is practically no
competition. Great are the
powers of the protective tariff.

According to Scripture, Adam
lived TO be nine hundred ani
thirty years of age, when, 50
is stated, he died. That was
wise of Adam, for had he lived
much longer, instead of over
feeding himself on fruit from
the Garden Of Eden, he would
long ere this have succumbei
to adulterated food. 1t was q
fortunate thing for Mr.. Adam
that the fruit from the tree OF
knowledge was not put up in
Theoretically sealed tins, guar
anteed to keep in all climates, ,
etc. Adam escaped all this by
dying when he did!-Standard
