A FAD THAT MAY BE USEFUL.

An Eastern paper is authority for the
statement that it is to be a fad this win
ter to be poor. This means of course,
that the people whose incomes. heretofore
of O comfortable size, have been narrowed
by the stringency of the times, are to
make a virtue of economy. Provided they
do not carry the idea too far the plan will
have it's advantages. To be forever harp
ing on the limit of ones expenditures the
self-denials enforced by poverty. the little
cost of ones purchases. may easily become
as offensive in it's way the boastful
display of wealth. But since 1t is a neces-
sity for many people TO practice economy
who have never known much about that
art. il is wise to undergo the experience
with cheerfulness
The lesson of frugality is a salutary one
but is never likely to be learned except by

Mr.. Benjamin S. Parker was the poet Of
the Farm and Mental Culture Congress,
which held it's sessions at Chicago on the
18th of October. The. committee which
chose this Indiana poet for this service
made very happy selection. for no writer
could be in closer sympathy with the farm
er's life or see more truly the relation borne
by the tiller Of the soil to all labor and all
learning, to individual progress and to the
State. The poem, worthy of Mr..
Parker's reputation, is too long to repro
duce here but two stanzas will serve to
give an idea OF it's character:
Laugh at his plowman's gait and sun
Drowned skin,
/ II laugh you must, but he laughs best Of
all:
In debt to him all ranks and states are kin:
Let him but t0tter and your kingdoms fall;
Palsy his arm, and all the vibrant strings
- OF thought and purpose into discord break,
And art and song, distraught, on pulseless
wings
Lie groveling where he babe them first
awake.
Deem no profession, calling, art or trade
Higher than his that is the first of ALL
Let science delve for him, let Truth invade
The realms of error, SuperStitionS fall
Before the light that gladdens his domain!
Let fortune reach her jeweled hand to
him,
Fame on her temple set his harvest vain
And honor fill his bealxer to the brim,

The latest instruction Of the superintend-
ent Of police to the force Is clearly in the
direction of better enforcement Of the
laws relative to saloons and gambling
houses. 1t is that hereafter each patrolman
will be held directly responsible for the con-
duct Of the saloon and gambling element
in his district, and each sergeant will be
held to a like responsibility for the action
of the men under him. This fixes respon-
sibility, and if the laws are not enforced
somebody will have to suffer- Something
of this kind was necessary. The present
police force has not only not been trained
to enforce the laws in regard to saloons
and gambling houses, but has winked at
the violation Of law and cultivated friend
ly relations with all the saloons 1t will
require some discipline to get the force
out of that habit, and the superintendent
order is a step in that direction.
