The Universal Language.

The author of the language Volapul,.
Herr Schleyer, German, is still Ell
deavoring to bring it into general use
for commercial purposes. A conference
has also been proposed to fix on some
tongue which can be commended to the
nations for general adoption.
1t is chimerical dream. There is
no need of Volapuk, no need of con-
ference to adopt some composite lail-
guage that could come into common
use without hurting the susceptibilitics
of French, Germans. Russians, Italians
or the natives of Booriboola Cha. Sim
ply let one living language alone, and it
will take the world. 1t is English, The
language of Shakespeare, the Magma
Charta and the Declaration of Inde-
pendence. In the time of Shakespeare
100000 spoke it. Today 100,0O0,0 900
speak it. Only one tongue is used by
more people, and that is the Chinese, the
speech of 300,000,0O0. But Chinese can
never be the language of the world. 1t
is to be English, and English only.
Zincke, statistician, declares that II
century more there will be 1000 .00O,-
600 English speaking persons. Matthew
Arnold wrote concerning the proposition
to fix arbitrarily on some language for
universal tongue, ''Such language
will only be established by one language
acquiring stupendous preponderance
of some kind" That preponderance
English is acquiring as fast as commerce
and the worlds material development
can advance. In the gold mines of
South Africa at the Nicaragua canal
works on our American isthlnus, in
Japan, in India and the South Sea is
lands. it is all over the same, English be-
ing spread by traders and workers.
In America this language, which is
the best mankind have found foi prac-
teal, everyday use, is corrupted soms-
what by the overflow of the languages
Of Europe upon us. This must be
checked. The first duty Of lawmaking
authorities in all the states is to compel
the English language to be taught in
the sehools--taught. too, by those who
know how to use it. This is not coun-
try of mongrels. 1t is a country in
which the strong, rich, manly English
language shall be the common tongue
Of the people forever, a country from
which this same English shall spread IN
all directions.

Who first invented wooden legs? Vul-
can was cripple, and in consequence
Of his difficulty in walking he is said to
have made himself an artificial support
of gold but, as Mr.. Thoms pointed out
long ago, gold is not for every cripple.
and every myth is backed by reality
Again, the devil, as represented in the
drawings and engravings of the Middle
Ages, is compound of Pluto and Vul-
can. The latter was elected from Olym-
pus, the devil was cast out of heaven.
Vulcan was frequently figured with a
beard and pointed cap
In the edition of Tyndale's New Testa-
ment printed by Jugge in 1889 there is
wood cut representing the devil sowing
tares, and wearing not only the Vulca-
nian beard and pointed cap, but also a
wooden leg. Another medieval repre-
sentation of the devil with wooden leg
may be found in one of the paintings on
the panels of the pulpit in the ancient
little church of Heligoland 1t is only
fair, however, to point out that the arti-
fetal support in the Tyndale wood cut
resembles more clumsy, one legged
stool, upon which the lame leg appears
to be doubled up at the knee, than sub
stituted wooden limb After all this
Identification, so far as regards costume
and lameness, of the medieval devil and
the ancient Vulcan, although it opens
up curious field of speculation to those
who are learned in matters of compara-
tive mythology, yet throws no certain
light on the question as to when the
wooden leg AS we know it-a complete
artificial substitute for lost liinb-was
first invented.-Ali the Year Round.

Cooperative Vacations.

Those who live on the seashore nefd
for their recreation little journey TO
the mountains or into the interior plains
of the country. The one in the interior
needs. on the contrary, the moist salt Sc q
mir. The people who toll the hardest
and most steadily are the ones really
best entitled to outings. They are tie
ones most benefited by the change.
The happy period has come in our .hi,-
tory when such vaca' .ons, such changes
and outing trips are within reach of tie
poor. The girl who earns only few
dollars week may have her vacation.
The way to manage il is through. co-
operation. If number of girls or
young workingmen would begin now
and lay by each small sum weekly for
the vacation trip, by the time summer
came the money would be ready. A
very small amount would be enough.
There are cottages by the seashore ard
in the mountains, plain little houses,
where the rent is cheap. The furniture
might be only of the temporary kind
used in camping Young men might
hire a cook. Girls can always do their
own cooking. There will be plenty of
time.
The appetite is SO good during vaca-
ton trips that nobody is fussy abont
eating. A cottage rented for the season
by all association of vacation seekers
could be occupied in turn by installments
of the members, each installment having
it IL week, then giving place to the next.
Between now and next summer charm
ing spots can be found, the cottage or
tent rented, the parties made up and the
money saved. A vast amount of pleas
ure can be got out of small means where
there are intelligence and pluck.

A Frenchman has devised an electric
helmet which will put the insomnious
TO sleep. THERE'S small battery inside
the helmet which produces "gentle
buzzing sound" like the droning of a
bumblebee. DR.. GILES, the inventor,
claims that the most wakeful patients
cannot withstand the influence of this
droning sound more than seven or eight
minutes. Gentle vibratory movements
have often been found beneficial in pain
full nervous disorders.

Our Friends the workingmen.

Two items of recent news show that
workingmen are beginning TO learn how
to fight. A great organization, said to
embrace 10000 mechanics and laborers,
has been formed in western Pennsyl-
vania. 1t is called the Western Penn
sylvania Industrial association. The or
ganizers say it is formed for. a political
purpose, and that purpose IS lie election
to office Of only such candidates rs are
pledged to the interests of the working
man. They will tako no account Of
party, but will stand simply and solely
on the ground Of favoring the working
man. The candidate who pledges hinl-
self to do this will secure their votes.
If IL sc men live up to their blue china,
they can secure almost any measure
they want But the chances are that
after passing high sounding resolutions
they will drop apart and each sneak off
his own way and drop into the ballot
boz his same Old Democratic or Repub-
licfn ticket.
The other slgnlflcent news item Is that
a large number of striking workmen in
certain industry are starting a CO.
operative factory of their own. They
will make contracts and do work and
transact business just as the firms did
by whom they have hitherto been em-
ployed. They cannot help making a
success if they stand together, IN spite
of jealousies and unacquaintance with
business forms. All they do not know
they can learn with patience and per-
severance.
Workingmen's cooperative factories
have often failed, but that is no sign
they are to fail forever. Workingmen
have in their own lands the power to
peaceably accomplish all they desire if
they will use their brains.

The wire industry is actively carried
on in Great Britain, Germany and Bel

THE Denver News says that "the
low price of silver caused the trouble
in Idaho" The News struck the
keynote of our financial and labor
troubles in making this assertion.
There is bound to be reign of ter
ror, privation and want all over the
world. Philanthropists sigh and
cannot see why this state of affairs
should exist. The masses are
alarmed, but cannot see the cause,
and financiers are looking in every
way but the right one for remedy
for the evil. There is but one cause,
and but one remedy; which, if not
recognized, this country will witness
bloody war-one of labor against
capital and great poverty against
immense capital. The cause is the
degradation of silver. The remedy
is its remonetization.-Salt Lake

number Of persons on the globe
better deserve success or are better
adapted for its enjoyment"
Americans deserve success, but
what are the present facts?
"Three-fourths Of the business
enterprises of this country are con-
Quoted on borrowed capital; three
fourths of the homes and farms
that stand in the name of the actual
occupants have been bought on
time, and a very large proportion
of them are mortgaged for large
part of the purchase money. I'm
der the operation Of the shrinkage
in the volume of money, this great
mass of borrowers. at the maturity
of their debts, though not paying
more than the amount borrowed
with interest, are in reality, in the
amount Of principal alone, return
ing per cent Of value greater than
they received more than the equity
they contracted to pay; more IN
substance than they profit by the
loan. To the man of business this
per cent constitutes the difference
between success and failure. Thus
shrinkage in the volume of money
is the prolific source of bankruptcy
and ruin. It is the canker that UNI
perceived and unsupported is eat
ing out the prosperity OF our peo-
pie. By reason of the almost
universal inattention to the nature
and function of money, this evil is
permitted unobserved to work ruin
and disaster. So subtle is it in its
operation that it eludes the vigil
ance of the most acute. 1t battles
all foresight and calculation. 1t
sets at naught ELL industry, all en-
ergy, all enterprise. During period
of falling prices, the fear of i'm
pending calamity hangs like pail
over the business of the country.
Notwithstanding unremitting ef-
forts, men feel themselves continu-
ally on the edge Of disaster. Gloomy
foreboding and timidity take the
place of confidence and courage.
A shrinking volume of money is
the most insidious foe with which
civilization has to contend. The
miseries inflicted upon mankind by
war, famine and pestilence have
been less cruel, Implying and I'M
relenting and remorseless than the
exactions which this memorable
enemy has made upon society"
The undersigned is enlisted for
the war. NEW AND OLD.
