A System of Slavery.

What is free trade! 1t is the freedom
to buy or sell where you can find tho
best market--that is, the market that
will give you the largest profit. Do you
know Of any one who does not always
look for such q market, no difference
whether he wants to buy or sell? When
q man lacks that qualification he ought
to be protectionist, and call on grand
ma to protect him. What shame it is
on an American citizen-what disgrace
it is for an intelligent American to ask
congress or any law making body to
pass law that will compel other people
to purchase of him or sell to him! He
can, with the same honor, ask to have
those people made his property, for in
either case he will take the product of
their labor without giving its full value
in return, and that value based on what
some others would give.-St. Louis
Courier.

A Thouehtfui chipmuni..

Twas visiting n farmer, and had gone
with him to tine middle OF field where be
was planting corn. A nischievous horse
in the adjoining pasture attempted to get
some OF the seed corn, and in reaching over
the fence for that purpose overturned a
bag Of seed.
We hurried to the spot and found that a
chipmunk had already begun TO gather
the scattered grains. He was very busy,
and his conduct showed that he under
stood the situation thoroughly. The treas
ure would be within his reach for a very
short time, 20 instead of filing his pouches
and hurrying TO his burrow he set about
hiding as much as possible of the corn
within few yards Of where it had been
spilled.
A piece Of bark, chip or a sod served as
a temporary hiding place. and in a short
time he had gathered all the grain that
the farmer could not conveniently collect,
and began to transport it to his permanent
granary. l noticed several places where
he had put q mouthful, aud found after
ward that he did not overlook any OF them
when removing the spoil TO his storehouse.

a number OF years ago. standing amid
his staff. when it suddenly made its ap-
pearance. no one knew whence. and

carriage the little dog walked III front
Of him. las proud as Punch, with his
tail erect, and scrambled first into the
carriage before any one could say him
nay Arrived at the palace he darted IN
first. and insisted on remaining with the
king. His majesty, who is slightly super
stitious. said the dogs perslstency WAS a
good omen: that at any rate be hld one
faithful friend. and from that time for
ward it slept in his bedroom and scarce
ly ever left him. II was most super.
cilious little dog, and would never take
notice Of any one except the king, whom
it seemed to idolize. The dog died the
other day, much to the sorrow Of its
master. London Graphic.

good day. As this knight Of the square

might be possible to build a cottage that
should look like palace he overheard his
Office boy remark to an assistant:
"Say, Jimmy, did you know that sister
Nellie and Sam c. are goin ter git mar

little house for themP Iheard 'cm talking
about it last night. Sister Nellie said she
must have big dining room, with bay
window on the south, where she can keep
lots of flowers. and Sam said he must have
a veranda across the front, and nice hall
with handsome staircase, and parior
with an open fireplace in one corner and a
place on one side of the room for piano,
and tkat he wanted to use curtains instead
of doors to separate the hall and parlor,
and in the archway between the parlor and
dining room, and Nellie said she wanted
two good rooms in the second story and a
small room which Sam could use as a
smoking room or den."
The next day Sam showed Nellie letter
from Architect Lee Squar>, stating that
he had heard that small house was want
ed, and that he thought client of his
would build him cottage to suit his own

"AHd have my veranda, hall and parlor

said Lee Square, laughing. But we have

serious look. However, l have made pro-
visions SO that at some future time the bed

may be desirable to do So"
The cottage was erected for 81 400, and
when Mr.. Jones, the owner, found that
Sam was going to be his tenant he was
so pleased that he concluded that he could
afford to put in the bathroom for $3.50.
Soon after there was wedding in the vii

A Ftf,een.foot s.,ark in the Ohio.

shark nipped twenty pound perch
which had been caught on one of the
hooks of trotline opposite the city, and
destroyed one-half OF the fish at the first
bite. Returning for the remainder. it
swallowed the hook, and when an at

the line the shark splashed the water
similar to the way young whale would.
The shark is described as having a

There is something approaching grim

The colonel. who is of rather mature

MT. HOLLY, N. j., Oct. 1t.-Wesley
Warner, who is awaiting trial for the
murder of Lizzie Peak, has been foiled
in an attempt to murder the turnkey and
escape. Daniel Ryan, an elderly man
from Bur -ngton. who was in jail for as
saIlt, was in the jail corridor Sunday
night, and Warner called him up to his
cell door and informed him that he had
made up his mind to murder the turn
key, U. b. Reeves. when he made his
I last rounds at night. and in that way
secure possession of the keys and escape.
Ryan tried to urge him not to, but he
replied he was going to make the at
tempt, as they couldn't hang him any
more for two murders than they could
for one. Ryan gave warning to the turn
key, and Warner was at once removed
to the dungeon and chained to the floor.
A stout piece of wood was found con-
cealed under Warmers bed, with which
he intended to do the deed.
