THE ANTI CHINESE BILL.

just as the United States is about to
enact law against the Chinese SO
stringent in it's provisions that Sena-
tors Sherman, Dawes and Platt, es-
pecially the champions of the Cypress
ed, could not vote for it, news comes
from the Flowery Kingdom that the
government is making vigorous efforts
to suppress the anti-foreign element
there, one poor wretch having been
sliced to death as a penalty for badg-
ering and maltreating foreign resi-
dents.
1t is all-important that our country
men should be treated with respect in
China, and be guaranteed safety in
person and property; and if the com
promise bill which the senate passed
by two to one vote, and which the
House will enact even more heartily,
initiates the Celestials, no little trou-
BILE may result. Tt is fortunate for us
in this matter that we are dealing with
a peaceful and long suffering people.
The bill, as agreed upon, is rid of
the principle of total exclusion. So
much has popular Indignation
achieved. Senator Dolph, who brave
ly confronted his Pacific coast con
stituents on this issue, voted for the
measure, though he would have pre-
ferred his own simpler bill, which was
content with continuing the present
restrictions AGAINST the Chinese. The
approval of the present bill by other
conscientious and conservative law
makers is reassur1ng. Nevertheless it
confessedly violates the terms of the
treaty of 1880 Gas, indeed did the Scott
law of 1889, and it is to be feared that
in operation the section providing for
the issue of certificates to Cinnamon
already in the country viii work hard
ship and injustice, and drive out of
the United States Cinnamon who have
a right here, especially when the law
is enforced by officers of the Pacific
coast who really question the right of
the Acknowledged intruder to existence
any way.
Laws in violation of treaties are not
infrequently enacted, and often oper-
ate, as far as men can see, with salts
faction (real or enforced) and success.
Nevertheless right is right, and to go
contrawise must inevitably, measured
by time and truth, work retribution.
We shall see.-MaiI and Express.

4 COUNTRYMAN,S RERUKE.

The countryman's contempt for city
knowledge is often very amusing.
The other day, during the warm spell,
young Boston entomologist journey
ed to a suburban city to meet an en-
thusiastic co-worker in the science.
Together the two wandered into the
fields in search of something to dis
sect; and though it was early for
thoroughly animated nature, they had
a lively talk, and did happen upon
premature specimen of the animal
with wings. The insect was promptly
captured, and the two lads took it to
the nearest fence for examination.
Here neither OF them could recall the
order to which it belonged, and the
Latin name was variously given by
both. In the midst of the controver-
sy two countrymen came up, attract
ed by what was going on, and Won
dering, as they expressed it, ''what
the lads were jawing about.'' But
their perplexity did not last long.
The youthful entomologists informed
them, pointing to the insect, that they
were "trying to think of the name for
that" ''That?'' said the elder of the
countrymen, with an expression of
utter scorn on his face, "why, that's a
bug. Never see a bug before?'

Men never break down in health so
long as they keep a happy, joyous
heart. Tt is the sad and respondent
heart that tires, and, whatever the
load, we should always keep a cheer
full spirit within. There are two ways
of meeting hard experience. One is
to struggle and resist refusing to yield.
The result of this is the wounding of
the soul and intensifying the hardness.
The other is quietly to accept the
circumstance or restraints and make
the best Of them by enduring all cheer
fully. Those who live in the first way
grow old in the middle of life. Those
who take the other way keep young
and happy heart down to old age, and
often find the last days the best days
and old age the happiest time of life.

PEARLS OF THOUGHT.

Hope is an unjust jewel.
Justice is what jury says.
Right is a matter of opinion.
Death is the door to eternity.
A sinister glance betokens an evil
purpose.
Give attention and you viii get
knowledge.
A kindly feeling cannot fail to touch
the heart.
He who would exert influence must
exercise Judgment.
Tomorrow is the lazy mans beacon
and the FOOLS reward.
The ugly temper of a pretty woman
always shows through.
Never let your curiosity get the
better Of your discretion.
In the futter of excitement the fight
of time is unheeded.
We find happiness while we are
pursuing it and lose it after we reach
it.
Many shall court distinction for
whom the wedding day viii never be

Retrospect brightens existence only
as it is replete with pleasant memo
cries.
Don't fatty refuse to pay bill and
fondly cherish the belief that that set
ties it.
Some never uncork the walls of their
wrath except to pour forth a torrent
of abuse.

Trees.

Set out trees! adorn the homestead,
Make it pleasant all around,
Let the eIms and oaks and naples
With the evergreen abound;
Let the home be so attractive
That the boy that is to-day,
When he shall arrive at manhood
And in foreign lands may stray,
Then with longing heart and loving
To his home these hills among,
Thinking how the trees are thriving
Which he helped to plant when young.
set out trees! yes, plant an orchard;
Dear, good farmers, do you know
Of the wealth there is in fruit trees
Tor the labor you bestow?
How the apples turn to money,
With the peaches, pIums and pears,
And the luscious, bright red cherries,
All the fruits the orchard bears?
Little children, love the fruit trees,
How they wait, with what delight,
For the coming OF their blossoms,
In their lovely pink and white;
Never flowers were half so pretty,
Never such profusion shown,
As Dame Nature gives the fruit trees,
with a glory all their own.
Set out trees! Along the highway,
Place them thick on either side,
IN the present joyous springtime,
Every one his part provide;
Set out waInuts, chestnuts, beeches,
Where the playful squirrels come;
In heulocIs, frs and spruces,
Shall the song birds find home,
Let their branches growing, tVining,
Forming arches DER the way,
Shield the horse and screen the rider
Through the long, hot summer day,
Thick green leaves the golden sunshine
Hiding while the dogstar reigns;
Then when autumn paints them gayly
CarPeting the hills and plains.
Set out trees! upon the common,
Ashes, lindens, pOplars, birch;
Set them out around the schO0l-house,
Place them thick about the church,
Have the chiIdren's play ground shade
and the public walks IS well,
And the joys from them arising
Coming ages glad viii tell.
Tuese shall live and grow and gladden.
While we mOulder meath their leaves,
Let us then improve the present,
Leave behind US priceless trees.
