HEDGED ABOUT BY A PRoSCRIP-
TIVE TABOO.

am not aiming TO convince mental babies, as
indeed that would be fruitless without the nee
essary cultured intellect that makes logic appi-
cable Force, brilliancy and originality even
are no weapons to attack slave with. For many
centuries the medical art was hedged about BY
proscriptive taboo which it, as yet, has not sur
viyed. The brand for numbering truth is the
penalty of imbecility stamped upon the mental
caliber of the average indiyidual-in relation to
medicine and medicine men. The sun Of the
nineteenth century has not yet dawned upon his
intellectual horizon He, together with his ideal
medicine man, still hibernates in the good old
days of the dark ages, when it was bad form to
be inquistive. He still believes" in bleeding,
bistering, vomiting, purging and sweating. lie
loves copiOus doses OF horse medicine. He de-
lights in assafoetida and calomel and carbolie
acid. They are considered indispensable; no
well-regulated family, with pigmy inteleets and
abdominal development, considers Itself safe

to convert; they are the Rip Van Wrinkles that

THE PORTLAND INDUSTRIAL Ex-
POSITION.

Every indication points to a tremen-
dous success Of the Portland Industrial
Exposition, which opens this year Sep
TENDER IL. The music by the great
Zapadores Band of Mexico, the paint
ings from abroad, the living chess tour
nament. the wonderful electrical dis
plays, the nprecedentedly large num-
Der of exhibits in agriculture and hOrti-
culture, in industry and science, shows
that the coming Exposition, IN attract
iveness, will exceed any ever held upon
the Pacific Coast.
There has been an entire rearrange-
ment of the Exposition, and large
number of novelties from every part of
the world have been secured.
The railroads have granted a round
trip rate of one fare and fifth; half
rates on all exhibits, except fruits and
vegetables, which have been placed upon
the free list. This certifies TO the excel
lent management of the Exposition of
1891, and the same energy displayed in
the other departments leaves no doubt
as to its great success.

Sometimes think it would have been bet
ter for all hands if we had never had any an
cestors nor any precedents prior to the year
1889 OF what consequence were the old
Dutch ancestors of New York compared to
Dewitt Clinton, who laid out the Erie canal
and pressed its execution upon a compare
lively poor commonwealth? OF what conse-
quence were the so called Pilgrim Fathers of
New York compared to the men who started
the Croton aqueduct, without which this
island could never have grown to the popula-
tion it has2 How much more we owe to the
first founders of our great public cemeteries
than to the founders of the little churchman's
which would otherwise have been, as in Lon
don, overpacked at the present day with
superintendent dead? Sometimes / think we
will owe quite as much to that generation or
leader who will wipe the cemeteries out, and
turn their monuments and headstones into
some useful architecture for the living. To
put the old mold of a discharged man under
$50, 900 monument is as near idolatry as
tine Greeks and Romans ever got, and have
never heard of but two cases where a useful
man slipped into a rich mans tomb by way
of charity, the first being in the case of Jo-
seph of Arimathea, and the next that of
Robert Fulton, who was Sided into the Liv-
that emigrant family.
If you notice our youngest American
states, they get along much smoother than
our oldest states. See how Kansas is grow

planter oligarchy9 See how readily Mime
sofa reaches out her antennae to the Sault St
Marie, to Duluth, to Manitoba, to Dakota
and to everywhere, having, it is said, five
railroads to Chicago, whereas the building
of the Boston and Albany railroad and the
consolidating of the Pennsylvania and New
York Central lines were done as if nothing
of that kind had ever been done before or
could be done again. Why is it that Boston
and New York are connected by a single
corporation, when Buffalo and New York
are connected by half a dozen corpora
tions? Presidents sit upon the head of
the living age. The gravestone is not put
upon the dead only, but upon the living

In spite of all that has been said about the
clipping evil in London, I maintain that it
is not half the scourge in England that it is
on the continent Of Europe, and that it is
rapidly becoming on the continent of Amer
lea. Walters at English hotel tables do not
have it in their power to give patrons of the
house bad food, because they are not well
tipped. When a charge for attendance is
made in the bill at hotels or in restaurants,
one is quite within ones right to go away
from the place without tipping any servant
whatsoever. London cabmen never expect,
and as far as 1 know, never get, any tips.
Ask cabman what his fare is. if you do not
know yourself, and he will probably not ex-
aggerate his fare beyond paltry sixpence,
and more probably still, he will rell you the
exact truth. Cabbage is dear when you
indulge in lot of it, of course; still, there
ere the omnibuses of London, the finest of
any metropolis, where the fare is one penny
So you can take your choice between penny
and shilling modes of conveyance.-Oliv

BURNED AT SEA.
Experiences of Passengcrs and Crow of
the steamer AbysinnIa.

LONDON, Dec. %. At midnight toni ght
the Spree landed the passengers and crew of
the Abyssnnia at southampton. They
were all in fair condition, having recovered
from their shock which their rough expe-
rience had given them.
The Abyssinia's voyage was without spe-
cial incident from the date of starting until
last Friday. 1t was about noon when a
fire were discovered by the crew aud it
soon becams evident that the vessel was be
yond saving.
The passengers were quietly told to make
rrepnrotions to leave, the crew laboring
meantime to retard the advance Of the
flames, which threatened to burst from the
hold. The Passengers behaved well, even
the women showing wonderful courage un-
der the circumstances. The flag
of distress was hosted and the
horizon anxiously scanned. At length
the Spree came In sight and directed her
course toward the burning vessel Captain
Willigrod Instantly caused his boats to be
lowered and the German sailors quickly
manned them and made for the burning,
vessel. The Passengers were permitted to
take with them such belongings as they
could carry about their persons other bag
gage being sacrificed. The passengers We're
bH in number and the crew numbered about
50.
After tho Abyssnnia had been abandoned
the tire gained rapidly and the vessel must
have gone down soon after. The cause OF
the fire is unknown, but Capt. Murray OK
pressed the opinion that it originated spon
taneously in the cargo, Of Yhich there wa
over thousand bales destined Tor Liverpool.
