may be traced back to land as their first
ancestor, but there are, nevertheless, scores
Of industries Which land and the holding
of land could never establish without tie
aid Of other forces, and these other forces.
such as capital, skill, etc, are it depepden :
Of land so far as its ownership is concern
cd. The necessity which all men are under
Of supporting life, which underlies all
activity, will ever keep land under a state
Of cultivation, and while other industries
may depend indirectly upon the cultiyat on
Of land, the above law of necessity is so
uniform in its effects that it becomes safe
to build on the convenience Of c apital.
ANY skilled laborer as long as he is em-
ployed at his trade will have DO need of
his portion of the land, and when he is
thrown out Of work be cannot use it. He
is dependent on capital and capitalists
under the single tax system as he is now;
and will they be more mercifult to him? will
they pay higher wages? Human nature is
ever the same, and he who has the adyan-
tage will always take it; no business man
pays more in wages than interest compels.
Aud while wages may depend, as Mr..
George saws, on the margin of cultivation
for their foundation, every one who
has ever had experience in competing for
wages knows that the demand and supply
are the great powers that mostly control
the price of labor in actual practice, aud
when the supply is in excess of the demand.
no matter what the avs or what the sys.
tenn OF government, wages are forced down
to a minimum. Nor will the single tax
system regulate more uniformly the de-
mand and supply. There is land
vacant now. nor would there be more
under this system. Labor may, according
to frs principles, employ capital, but
with 800 applicants for a single situation.
it would seem that in practical application
the contrary is true. Capital is depend
ent on labor. but labor is also dependent
on capital; and the denser the population
the more true this becomes.
By abolishing private property in land
we destroy many of the incentives TO an
terprise and progress. IF we do not, then
is the system a failure. If there is &c hope
Of attaining 20 wealth there is no incentive
to improve; and if in tn theory Of pubic
ownership of land there is an avenue
&c wealth, there is no equal distribution or
guarantee against cooperative power.
In governments and societies, as 10 liter
airy composition,
Nv hoover thinks q ~faultless piece TO see,
Thinks what ne'er was, nor is. nore'er shall be-
and many Of the finely conceived plans for
forming a perfect society are mere hallu-
cinations, visionary. unjust, unsafe. and
i'm practicable.

I served til the war was done.
Our company mustered out but ten
That listed in ~'sixty-one.
1t was my turf on picket
One night in early June.
The air was full of music,
My heart had caught its tune:
While pacing in the moonlight
My mind ran to and fro,
To mother and the dear old home,
To father and brother Joe.
Our parents died; we were ten years old
Twin brothers, Joe and me;
A down east farmer took me home.
Joe went to Tennessee.
Ten years had passed; we had never met,
But somehow that summer night,
With its shining moon. brought his face
again
So plainly to my sight.
Iheard a step. Halt. who goes there?"
The moon shone bright as day,
And through the bushes l saw a mar,
And he wore a suit of gray.

And quicker than | can tell

To stop the red blood's flow,

"Traitor," you say, to his country;
Well, friend, that may be so,
But whether in blue or whether in gray,
He was still my brother Joe.

The Children's Penny Dinner Associa-
ton, of London, is the outgrcwth of the
desire to meet the wants of thousands of
children of the worlds metropolis Who are
absolutely confronted with starvation, and
whom want and privation render 80 impaired
in vitality that hundreds die yearly from this
cause. Tickets are given or sold to ne child
rem, and when they present them they arc
furnished with a good, wholesome dinner.
One terribly bleak day last winter. writes
an English writer, a little half frozen
child presented her ticket, value two cents,
which made her the owner OF q seat at the
dinner table. The little one looked fam
ished, weird, worn out, one would have
said. with starvation, but the plate of ap-
petizing roast mutton remained untouched
before her. Observing this a lady went
up to her and asked in tones of kindly ac-
cent if she could not eat a little.
You look SO hungry, dear" she said,
don't you like the roast mutton?"
Tue little one raised a pair of blue eyes
TO her face, and said:
'tOh, yes, ma'am, but"
Well. dear, whst?"
But, please, ma'am, the new bsby's
come, and mothers SO dreadful weak,

The child hesitated, then, gathering
confidence from the kindly smile that met
her glance, added:
Il thought it would do her good"
Tears cam e into the eyes of the kind
hearted woman. to whom TIE little wsif
made known her anxiety to provide some
thing for the comfort of her mother, aud
in less time than it takes to tell it the IN
selfish child had a promise of a 'dinner
for mother" But it was not till she bad
the assurance that she would have some of
the feast to carry home that sht would be-
gin to eat, though it was evident that she
was even then half famished for the neces-
saries of life. Truly, the little unknown
London waif had the SOIL of a heroine,
and her example is one that should inspire
ali hearts to good deeds and u nselfsh acts.
