HOG on TOAST.

AT the recent meeting of the Ameri-
can Poland-China Record Co., at
Cedar Rapids. Iowa. =. y Clark OF
Winfield. Iowa. turned his speech in
70 a toast as follows, which was re-
ccived with great laughter:
For four thousand wears the hog
was the object of dcrislon and con-
tempt. SO intensely was he disposed
that to hate him was a pleasure. SO
bitter was the antipathy, that herds
men. keepers of hogs, were regarded
as "borcs" and ostracised from society.
Mankind turned up his nose and
called him unclean. While all of Gods
creation in the animal Kingdom have
been worshipped by heather idolators.

wallowed so low in the mire of cor
ruption and nastincsS that 10 tongue
could be found in heathen lands to do

vagabond, an ~outcast, a scavenger

In Freeport, Me-, not long ago, the
school teachers got such small salaries
that when q shoe factory was started
in that town the young women aban-
doned teaching and took to stitching
machines. Since then the school
committee have got their ewes open
and are now trying TO get the school
teachers back at higher wages.

LOOKING OUT ron the DIMES.


The inventor of those little gochet
dime savings-banks NJ doubt used
for advertising purposes the old saw
alo0k out for the dimes and the dol
lars will look out for themselves but
he probably had no idea what u wide
spread fad he was inaugurating. Let
us hope the inventor is reaping a just
reward. for the number of people
who are practIcing it is legion. Some
arc able to save only 81 a week in
this way, but others accumulate 81 a
day, and the sum total in any case
amounts in q few months to a on
siderable sum. Nobody misses ten
cents" say the enthusiasts as they put
away the coins, and after a bit there
il. a great pile. This can be deposited
i'm the bank as the basis of still
further accumulation, or expended
for some priced object long deferred.
Recently a man started for a two
months trip TO Europe with 800 in
his pocket, heaped together in twelve
months by contributions of a dime at
a time: ard another one. who for
many years has shivered in the cold
of January and March, next winter
will have a fur overcoat. because he
has enough in the savings bank to
buy il with, saved from the tea-cent
pieces which he declares he has not
missed during the months he mas re-
Trained from spending them. The
DEMOCRAT does not advocate miserli-
ness, but thrift is a good thing. and a
little economy here and self restraint
there may mean a tidy bit against a
rainy day or for some use in some
holiday outing.

The much quoted phrase "The eyes
of Delaware are upon you," original
ed with George W. Karsner, once a
prosperous peach grower in New
Castle county, Delaware. Karsner,
an ardent Republican, was called as a
witness in the impeachment trial of
Andrew Johnson, and he was so i'm
pressad with the opportunity that he
assured the assembled Senators in
dead earnest that the eyes of Delaware
were upon them. kasner rather en-
jOyed the notoriety to which the
phrase attained, and had scarcely
enough humOr TO realize that the
press of the country treated it lightly.

for the Southern States, SAYS: "Our
policy has never been to stimulate
immigration by artificial means. The
Southern people have no desire to sec
any sudden rush of settlers, embrac-
ing great numbers of foreigners.
The Constitution need not have
added the word Foreigners The
Southern policy has been TO encourage
no American citizen TO immigrate uIi-
less he would leave his principles and
manhood behind him in the North.

build up great industrial enterprises

 Sir Roger de Coyerly is being danced; at the conclusion of which the bridal party enters. The brides health is drank, after which the miuuet is engaged in.

Finally an old lumber room in the castle is being put to rights when the skeleton form of the lost bride is discovered in an old oak chest. Loy- ell is mado to understand by means of n ring she had worn and turns to behold her appearing in n vision just as when she parted from him, he then falls dead ever the chest.
